GERMANY ALONE AVOIDS
 GENERAL MORATORIUM
Credit Has Stood Test of War Retter-Than That of
 Allies.

Berlin, March Il, Via London, 12:15 P. M.-The Berlin papers teday give considerable space to the speech with which the secretary of the imperial treasury, Dr. Karl Helfferich, yester day submitted the budget in the Reichstag; and it is evident that his presentation of the financial situation is attracting favorable attention.
 "Germany's credit has stood the test of war better than has that of Great Britain or France" pr. Helffer- ich declared. Germany alone has avoided a general moratorium. French rentes have fallen 12 to 15 and English consols about points, while German 3 per cents have fallen only 1-2 points since the war be- gan.
 The Reichsbank.' the secretary Of the treasury continues, "has made far better showing than has the Bank of England or the Bank of France. The Reichsbank has a gold reserve of 35 2-10 per cent of it's circulation and deposits. Similar figures for the Bank of France show 31 5-10, while for the Bank of England they are below 30 per cent"
 The unfavorable condition of for eign exchange for Germany had noth- ing to do with the intrinsic monetary situation. pr. Helfferich declared but resulted entirely from technical factors such as the interruption of foreign trade and the fact that Ger man balances abroad could not be collected. English ridicule of the depreciation of German exchange has grown rarer, the speaker declared. since the pound sterling had lest 2 per cent. of it's value for the purchase of dollars.
 Germany, according to the secretary Ol the treasury, has a better organ ization for mobilizing her financial re- sources than have her enemies. The organization for floating the present loan has been perfected. The post offices, local magistrates, clergymen and teachers have been enlisted to so- lcit subscriptions.
 Germany is keeping in touch with Austria Hungary and Turkey. the speaker said With the view of ex- tending them financial assistance Germany and her allies have a con- slderably lower war cost to meet than have their enemies. whose total daily expenditure amounts to almost S30- 100000.

VOUZIERS OBJECTIVE
 OF FRENCH FORCES
Major Nloraht Says French Campaign in Champagne Closed With
 a Complete Defeat.

Berlin, via London, March II, 1o:35 a. m.-Maior Moraht, military expert of the Tageblatt, explaining the sig nificance of the French campaign Tn Champagne, which, he says, closed with "A complete French defeat, de- clares the city of Vouziers Con the Aisne in She Department of Ardennes) was unquestionably the point which the French sought to take.
 This city" he says, "commands to a great degree the northern entrance to the Argonne and this district would have been evacuated bN the Germans if the French had taken'it, or else the German front there would have been forced into an angle toward the west, where it would have been exposed to attacks both from the west and south.
 Another result would have been the weakening of pressure on Nerdun, which the Germans then would have been able to menace only from the east and southeas To the material aspects of the victory must be added the physical and moral effect on the enemy and their heavy losses"

SERBIAN WOMEN JOIN IN
VALIANT DEFENSE OF COUNTRY

Berlin, Germany, - Telegraphing
under date of Oct. II, the Lokal An
zeigers correspondent with the Ger
man forces operating in Serbia says:
"The German and Austrian opera
tons are proceeding successfully
along the whole front The Germans
by an extended enveloping move
ment compelled the Serbians to evac-
uate Pozarevac almost without a
struggle, although the defenses of the
city had been so strengthened and the
advanced positions prepared for keep
ing the Teutons at distance that
the Serbians evidently had planned
making a long stand here.
"After the evacuation the Serbians
retired to the heights southwark and
southwestward, which also were
strongly fortified. On the following
days heavy fighting occurred there.
The contour of the country offered
great difficulties, there being few
roads.
"The Serbians made stout resis-
tance on the whole line. but suffered
great losses under the bombardment
of the German heavy artillery. Es-
pecially on the mountain of Vranovo
did the enemy fight desperately, but
finally after long resistance he yield
ed this strong elevated position to
one of the Brandedburg regiments. /"
Praises Spirit of Serbians
The Lokal Anzeiger's correspond
ent, in describing the spirit of resis-
tance shown by the Serbians, says
they did not abandon the plateau
behind the mountain after the Ger
mans had won the important heights
but continued holding the ground,
fighting under greatly unfavorable
tactical conditions until they were
slowly pressed back.
Other correspondents also empha-
size the bravery and persistence of
the Serbians, who. they say, often
hold positions until hand to hand
encounters become necessary to force
their abandonment.
The Lokal Anzeiger's correspond
ent says that at some places the civ
ilian populations. even women and
children, are participating in the
fighting.

Trouble Over Recruiting at End.
1t is generally agreed that for the
moment at least the controversy over
recruiting is over, for the conscrip-
tionists have decided to give Lord
Derbys new scheme a trial and to
assist him in every way to increase
the army in the field. 1t is under
stood that the volunteer system is
receiving it's last trial.
So far as the Dardanelles and the
Balkans are concerned, a great deal
of tile pessimism of a week ago has
1t is believed that in
stead of an idea of abandoning the

of General Monrc means
a more strenuous effort and that the

will cooperate.

claim progress, but in the north,
where the Serbs are being forced

lines are advancing at snail pace.
The Bulgarians have cut the rail-
road between Uskup and Nish, so it
is likely that except in the extreme
south where they have the support
of French troops landed at Saloniki
the Serbs are already in desperate
straits.
