Ministers Make Formal

Greece Concerning
Landing of Allies
Germans Are Falling
Back in Rig a and
Dvinsk Campaigns

London Nov. 1.-THE continued
landing of British and French troops
at Saloniki is causing some uneasi-
ness to Bulgaria and Turkey and the
ministers of those two powers today
again protested to the Greek govern
ment, which took formal notice OF
their protest. The determination Of the
Entente Allies in their Balkan cam

they are sending TO the Balkans, and

that Italy also had decided to inter

the Pledge
by Asquith
Sir Edward Grey Returns a
Written Answer to Sir Arthur
Markham's Question

London, Nov Ia-Reafirmation OF Pre-
,nier Asquith's historic pledge regarding
the Entente Allies terms of peace deliv-
cred at the lord mayors banquet NOV. 8
1914 was made by Sir Edward Grey, Brit
ish foreign secretary. today in a written
answer to a question put by Sir Arthur
Markham. Liberal member Of Parlia-
ment for the Mansfield division Of Not
tinghamshire.
After stating that Great Britain's po-
sition in the war is fixed by her alliance
with Japan. France and Russia, the for
eign secretary proceeded:
In our view the conditions Of peace
must fulfill those laid down by the prime
minister on Nov. 2, 1914. Il is very desir-
able that it should be understood at once
and for all that this is the determination
Of the government. collectively and in
dividually. and Of the nation
At the lord mayors banquet Nov 8,
1914 Premier Asquith in outlining the
war situation said:
This is going to be q long war, but
there is nothing in a long struggle TO
depress US or in what has happened. Our
enemy has tried three obiectives-Paris,
Warsaw and Calais-and has been bafHed
in all.
That is not enough. We shall not
sheathe the sword, which we have not
lightly drawn, until Belgium has recov-
cred more than she has sacrificed; until
France is adequately secured against
menace; until the rights OF the smaller
Municipalities have been placed upon an
unassailable foundation: and until the
military domination of Prussia is finally
destroyed

Resigns to
Join Army
Leaves British Cabinet to Go to
French Front-No Complaint
Because Asquith Could Not In
clude Him in the Small War
Council

London, Nov. 70, 1929 P. Mt is
officially announced that Winston
Spencer Churchill, chancellor Of the
Duchy of Lancaster, has resigned
from the cabinet and will join the
army in France.
His Explanation
Mr.. Churchill in his letter Of resig-
nation explains that he agrees in the
formation Of small war council, and
appreciates the intention which Pre-
mier Asquith expressed to include him
among its members. He foresaw the
difficulties that the premier would
have TO face in its composition, he
states. and Re makes no complaint be-
cause the scheme was changed, but
with that change his work in the gov
ernnent naturally closed. He says he
could not accept a position Of general
responsibility for a war policy without
any effective share in its guidance and
control, and did not feel able in times
like these to remain in weIl-paid in
activity.
Major Of Oxford Ieonanry
Run1ors had been current for some
time that Mr.. Churchill would resign
his seat in the cabinet and go out on
active service at the front He is a
major in the Oxford Yeomanry Mr.
Churchill was serving as first lord Of
the admiralty when the war began and
filed that Office until the formation of
the coalition cabinet last May He took
the position of chancellor of the Duchy
Of Lancaster in the new cabinet, Ar
thur J. Balfour being made first lord
Of the admiralty

BELIEVE VESSEL
TRIED TO ESCAPE

Washington, Nov. 12.-Still without def
mite information concerning the circum-
stances under which the Italian liner An
coma was sunk, state department Off
Gals took no further steps today in the
situation.
1t is believed details probably will reach
here tomorrow. Ambassador Thomas
Nelson Pages visit to the Italian foreign
Office is expected to develop at leas:
whether the Ansona was torpedoed with
out warning or whether shots were fired
at the vessel after she. had stopped. In
til definite information is available on
these points any presentations to Aus
hungary will be withheld.
Section Of Plan
The~ impression is strong in officiay
quarters, based on press dispatches that
the vessel tried TO escape and that those
Of her passengers who were lost were
drowned in the panic that ensued when
she was halted.
Ambassador Page at Rome cabled
the state department that Mrs. Cecile
Greil, believed to be an American, was
reported to have been saved from the
Ancona, although her name still re-
manned on the list Of those unaccount-
ed for Other Americans said to be on
the list Of lost We're the Patattiyo
family, Pasquale Laourine and Mrs.
Carmela Torrisi. Mrs. Torrisis hus-
band, Giuseppe, was said TO have been
among the rescued.
A Mrs. Cecil Greil was reported as
the only American then known TO be
saved in a dispatch Wednesday night
from Ambassador Page.
What the loss of life was in the
sinking of the Italian liner Ancona bF
a submarine in the Mediterranean HIS
not been definitely determined. Cen
sular advices 10 Washington have IN
dicated that SAT were saved out Of
4s6 said TO be on board, leaving las
unaccounted for. 1t is particularly de-
sired to determine speedily whether
the liner was warned and the passen-
gers were given sufficient opportunity
to escape, points regarding which
there is conflict of evidence.
Berlin has no official advices regard
ing the Ancona, it is declared there,
and il is believed there that the Aus
TRAN government has not as yet re-
ceived a report of the incident.

Of the recent search of the American

Progreso, Mex. was made al the state
department today by Charge Barclay OF
the British embassy, who said the vessel
was on the high seas al the time and
not in Mexican territorial waters, as had

The Zealandia, Mr.. Barclay told Coun.

quarters Of a mile outside the line Of
Mexican waters. and was boarded by g
party from the British cruiser and
searched for conraband, an admitted

Advance Difficult

Meanwhile the Austro- Germans and
Bulgarians are advancing slowly in
their efforts to cut off or annihilate
the Serbian army. These efforts how
ever, are growing more difficult as
the Serbians have now occupied, &C
cording TO their official report defen-
sive positions south and east Of kare-
lieyo and east Of Ivangnilza and on
the Eastern front on the left bank
Of the southern Morava where heavy
fighting is in progress. Big battles al
500 are proceeding in the South be-
tween the Bulgarians and the Anglo
French, but the reports are so con-
flicting that il cannot be said which
side has gained an advantage. Out
side the Balkans the most important
theatre of operations is now along the
Eastern front.

Germans Retreat

In the north, Germans apparently have
abandoned any hope of reaching Riga
and Dvinsk al least until the ground
freezes, and are falling back or are be-
ing driven back from the Dvina, which
was their objective. The Russians in the
Riga region are attempting an outfiank-
ing movement and their recent successes
have brought them within striking dis
lance of the Tukum-Mitau Railway,
which connects the German fighting
front with the fortress of Windau. The
Germans are also falling back before
Dvinsk as a result Of the Russian Of
fensive near Lake Swenton, while il the
south Gen. 1vanoff has continued to har-
rass the invaders by repeated thrusts
which during the past five weeks, accord
ing TO Petrograd dispatches, have
brought him nearly 10000 prisoners, In
the most recent of these thrusts, near
Rudka. the bag totaIled 5000, many OF
whom were Germans.
The Italians keep up their offensive on
both Trentino and Isonzo fronts and are
making another effort to take Gorilla,
which has withstood them for so long.
On the western front heavy artillery
commandments are again beginning in
Artois. but with the present rain-soaked
condition Of the ground this can hardly
forecast another offensive.
