little practical use is found for ther-

assuming an aggressive attitude on
the side of our enemies, we are pre-
pared to give our friends in the Bal
kans all the support in our power, in
manner that would be most well
come to them, in concert with our al
lies without reserve and without quail
ification," was the pregnant announce.
ment made by Sir Edward Grey, the
British foreign secretary, in the house
of commons.
Asquith Appeals to House.
Premier Asquith, who also address
ed the house, made an urgent appeal
to all his hearers to abstain from rails
ing questions concerning recruiting
for the national service.
"We are at critical moment in the
history of the war;" he said. "We are
watching with most intense sympathy
and hope the gallant combined efforts
of the allied forces.
81 do not think a greater disservice
could be rendered this country and
the cause of the allies than that at
this moment suggestion should go
forth to the world that there is any
division of opinion here"
Speeches Attract Attention.
The speeches of Premier Asquith
and Secretary Grey were followed
with the closest attention, as they
dealt with phases of the war situation,
which are of particular interest in
England at, present. Mr.. Grey EN-.
phasized the long standing friendship
between Great Britain and Bulgaria
and added:
"Our official information from the
Bulgarian government is that they
have taken up position of armed neu-
trality to defend their rights and in
dependence and that they have no ag.
gresive intentions whatever against
their Balkan neighbors. Not only is
their no hostility in this country to
Bulgaria, but there is traditional
warm feeling Of sympathy with the
Bulgarian people. AS long, therefore,
| as Bulgaria does not side with the en-
emies of Great Britain or her allies,
there can be no question of British in
fluence or forces being used in any
sense hostile to Bulgarian interests,
and as long as the Bulgarian attitude
Is unaggressive there can be no dis
turbance of those friendly relations" !"
Says Greece FaiIs Entente.
Berlin, Sept. 29.-The Overseas
News agency says that, according to
reliable information, Bulgaria and
Greece have agreed upon the estab-
lishment of neutral zone between

The paper reserves final judgment
until the terms shall have been of

that the essential object of the fl.
nancial mission is not to seek an
American subsidy but to rectify an
adverse exchange. The paper adds:
Primarily we should effect this OBJ
