"From a purely military viewpoint,

this week." snl'l t,ic minister, "nnd In
few months wc will begin ilcmobilirn
"ion of our army In Asia Minor. It Is
lrenilv the role of Greece to beglnjvork
a rcc'onstnirtlon In thene new terri
forlcs and It Is our design to make
them lit to live In, not only for GreckH,
nit for Turks and other nationalities.

policy of veiiReance, but one of economic
proxperlty for all-
"These countries arc fertile ngrieitl
fnmllv and our main plan of devel
opment will be along these lines. But
flic problems of housing, ronds, ports
nit forests nrc difficult, duo to the
wars nnd Turkish devastations.
"Politically, the Turks have long
been exploited by the pnshas, but they
nre the easiest people to govern no Ions
as their religion Is not touched. It Is
our Intention to help .maintain the
mosnuci. We are bo careful In this
respect flint we did nil that was hu
manly possible to tnke Adrlanoplo with
out damaging these muster works there.
Wc hac already founded n Moham

Athens as well ns expend sums to keep
up Turkish t-chools.
Ports to Bo Developed
"Port development will be one of our
first cares, since we nre a maritime na
tion. Wc are surprised there nrc no
Amirlcnn tenders for the big contracts
wc nrc letting for Pirueus and Halonika
and later for the development of the
water-power In Macedonia. Kecou
struction means large preliminary ex
nonilltnirs. but wc nro not especial

to start uorlc qulcltly so us to get qillcK

maintaining the present nrmy.
"Wo do not aspire to possess Con
stantinople," the minister continued,
'though necessarily it later will become
immncicinlly Greek and the Turks will
ubjndon it. The straits should nlunje
icmniu international and should nuvei
be under one power.
"We hope to keep Greece out of
ny new wars in the ISalkans. It is
Incorrect to t.av. that Greece him made
ny tieaty with the .Tugo-SIavs or
