ReventlOW Defends
Armenian Slaughter

BERLIN. Oct. 1O.-Count Ernst Won
Reventlow, military writer for the
Tages Zeitung, in an article in that
paper under the headline THE uproar
About The Armenian Atrocities Be-
gins" declares:
'1f Turkey considers II necessary
that Armenian uprisiings and other in
trigues be suppressed with all means
so that "A repetition will be impossible
that does not constitute massaCres or
atrocities. but simply measure Of a
justified and necessary character, the
more justified and the more necessary
from the fact that the Turkish empire
is in its hardest fight for existence and
has enough foreign enemies. To de-
mand that 1t shall also nourish an in
ternal enemy on its bosom. because
that would suit the British and Ameri-
cans, is to demand a great deal.
I'VE Germans have to give an ac-
count neither to enemies nor neutrals
of what the Turks do with their Ar
menians or what the German consuls
say about It. The place of the Ger.
man empire and Of every individual
German is at the side of our Turkish
ally, and that without criticism"

CHANCES IN BALKANS

Allies Privilege Of Landing in
Greece May Play Decisive
Part, Asserts Expert.
Ry ]. w. T. MASON.

NEW YORK. Oct 1O.-A new war
era. midway between the extremes of
the European battlefronts. has been
opened by the Austro- German inva-
sion of Serbia. Three Germanic Of
fensives have been developed along
the Drina, Save. and Danube rivers. but
apparently the start has had to be
made prematurely because of the quick
move of the Anglo French forces
through Greece, to Serbia's assistance.
Confidence in the power of NJ. Vent
zelos, shown by the allied displomats at
Athens. brought discontinue upon them
when NJ. Venzelos was compelled to
resign the premiership. His retire
ment was due primarily to disapproval
Of his course by King Constantine. but
there Is little doubt that popular opin-
ion supports the more cautious attitude
of the Greek monarch.
NJ. Venizclos is An ardent expansion
ist, whose supreme confidence IN
Greece's ability to expand along the
Asia Minor coast Is not shared by other
| Athenian statesmen.
Protest a Subterfuge.
Probably in exchange for contribu-
tions by the allies toward the cost OF
! Greece's mobilization, NJ. Nenizelos
tacitly consented. before his retirement
frcm the premiership. to the disem-
barkation OF allied troops on the Greek
coast. A formal protest by the Athens
government against the landing carried
no weight, because II was obviously
only a subterfuge to permit Greece Of
GciaIly to maintain her neutrality. The
new Greek ministry has shown no EVIL
dence of repudiating the Nenizelos
agreement.
The allies have thus won the right
| to use Greek soil as military pase
even though they have failed TO carr.

campaign in the Balkans. Serbia Is
mountainous country and with An
glo-French help reaching the Serb

miles from the Serbian border. TN
| German chances or Victory are ho
| more than even.
May Check Bulgaria.
How important a role Bulgaria VIII
play in the campaign is an unknown
problem. The quick disposition o
French and British troops in Serbia
along the Bulgarian frontier nigh
check the latter power from the out
set, as Italy has been checked by AUS
tria Hungary. If this be the result
Greece and Roumania may fall d
Bulgaria and overwhelm her. Ger
tainly a considerable part of the Bul
garian army must be held as frontie
guards along the Greek and Rouman n
ian boundaries. Only a part OF Bul
garia's strength can be used, there
fore, against Serbia.
The withdrawal of Marshal vor
