The action of Greece nssures a policy of full co-operation between tho Hellenic Govern ment and tho Entente Powers and Is re garded as preliminary to tho nctlvo en tranco of Greece- into tho war against the Central Empires. ATHENS, Sept. 4. A policy of full co-operation by Greece with the Entento Allies under a coalition Cabinet, as a preliminary to active lnter 'vpntlon. has 'been decided on. Tho new plan Involves the Indefinite postponement! of tho elections and tho continuance ot Zalmls as Premier, with tho support of Venlzelos., The Greek Government has decided to agree to demands of Great Britain and France for full control of tho posts nnd telegraphs, to prevent Information reach ing their enemies, and to tho expulsion of Daron von Schenk and 60 of tho ad herents who have been working In tho Interests of the Teutons. There are Indi cations that tho Allies will also ask to be allowed to Uso the Piraeus as' a base for the supplying of tho western wing of the army In tho Balkans and that this will bo permitted. EVENTS MOVE RAPIDLT Events nro moving very rapidly toward an early announcement of n most important change In the attitude of Greece. Already Venlzclos nnd nUtl-Venlzelos newspapers that for a year have been accusing each other ot treachery are beginning to preach unity In the face of the national crisis, Ex-Premier Venlzelos has declared his full confidence In Tremler Zalmls. the only difference hitherto separating them being the latter's Insistence on holding the elec tions at this Juncture. In such event Venl zelos threatened to abstain from tho elec tions. Tho reconstruction of the Greek Cabinet with two adherents of Venlzelos, General Danglls and M. Repoulls, Is probable, while an official announcement of the postpone ment of the election is a foregone con elusion. DEMAND OF ALLIES Representatives at Athens of Great Britain and France- have presented to the Greek rjoyernment a noto demanding con trol over the Greek posts and telegraphs and insisting ' on , the deportation from Oreece of agents of the Central Powers.

Members Of tho. local' unions attended out-of-door exercises to day. - ADVANCEMENT IN TEAR Frank Morrison, secretary of the Ameri can Federation of Labor, was spokesmaa for labor by Issuing a statement summar izing labor's advancement In the last year. "It is Impossible to record fundamental gains during tho year because of organized. labor's agitation, or to individualize prob able gains during tho coming year," ho said. "The best we can do Is to obsery tendencies. Prominent among these Is .the wotkora' seizure of the cry for 'prepared ness' to emphasize a danger in Industry' more dangerous than battlefields. "Government statistics show that 30,008" men are annually killed and 700,000 are annually Injured. "It has been stated that there aro mora than three million cases of Illness annually among Industrial -workers, caused mainly by long hours, low wages, dust, bad ,alr -fumes, 'umoke, poisonings nnd similar causes, and that through typhoid fever and, malaria alone, $900,000,000 annually is lost to this nation enough to equip the largest army and navy In the world, and then have, a. balanco sufficient to pay the tuition of every American boy now In college. MORE RESULTS EXPECTED "Information and reports received by the A. F. of L. clearly demonstrate the fact that a labor famine' exists only -where em ployers still demand long hours ' at low wages and where they Ignore, the living standards set by the workers. "Labor has successfully fought long hours and low. wages In tlie last year, and shall obtain more results In the year to come. "Our biggest present work is to curb Im migration and obtain more freedom of aa tlon." NEW LAWS PLANNED A complete new code of laws to goyera the railroads of 'the country la to be co. sldered by Congress, at the short session , which begins in December.

"The joint subcommittee named t study the railroad situation," Bald Senator Newlands, "has already organized and will begin its Investigations at once. The com mittee will continue to work throughout the recess of Congress and will endeavor to submit a report as soon as Congress re convenes In December, Of course the com mittee will consider legislation necessary t prevent a recurrence of the strike crista just averted. The legislation passed p'n Saturday deals with only a part of th problem and was put through as an emer gency measure.
