~ must say with great regret ! am
afraid we must admit that the prog
ress Of the campaign in northern Ser
bia has been such as to render it high
iy impossible that the Serbian army
will be able to Withstand for any
great length Of time the attacks which
it is exposed from the Austro- German
forces on the north, aided by the stab
in the back which Serbia is receiving
at the hands Of Bulgaria"
Demand information
While there was no criticism Of the
conduct Of the near eastern campaign,
there was general demand for infor-
nation and the suggestion Of smaller
cabinet to have charge of the war re-
eeived support.
Lord Lansdowne in his reply gave a
general review Of the Saloniki opera
tions, while Earl Curzon Of Kedlestone
made the statement that Premier As
quith had under consideration the mat
ter of a smaller executive.
Force at SaIoniki
Lord Lansdowne explained that the
British force landed at Saloniki which
numbers about $4,000 men was sent at
the request of Serbia and at the instance
of Venizelos (then premier) for the pur-
pose of enabling Greece to fulfill her
treaty obligations to Serbia. A much
stronger. force had been placed under
orders at the same time the Salonikl
troops were dispatched, but its ultimate
destination would depend on the re-
port Of Gen. Monro, the new British
commander-in-chief. who has already
reached the Gallipoli peninsula.
