King George, who had taken person
al command OF his troops during the
earlier period of the war, had been at
Salonica since December, when the
Turkish fortress was occupied by the
Greeks after short siege. The queen
of Greece also has been there and has
paid great attention to the care of the
sick and wounded. King George in
December had meeting there with
King Ferdinand of Bulgaria. and it is
supposed that they discussed the fate
of the captured Turkish territory after
the war.

the Greeks there has been some trtc-
