Attitude of Serbia and Greece.

Serbias attitude in the Balkans is
summed up as the stanch and loyal
friend Of the quadrupie allies and their
chief reliance in blocking the Austro-
German advance. Serbia was the first
to clash with her giant neighbor to the
north Austria, and thus precipitate
the European war. Serbia has always
stood in the way of Austria, barring
her advance southwark to the Mediter-
raneap and westward to the Adriatic.
Serbia's first aim, therefore. is to hold
what she now has of Macedonia against
the encroachments of Bulgaria, and at
the same time aid the Quadrup1e alliance
by holding back the advance of Aus
tria and Germany southwark.
AS to Bulgaria's claim of rights in
Macedonia and of alleged atrocities,
Serbia simply denies them. She was
willing to yield Macedonia to Bulgaria
while the quadruple allies were hoping
thereby to win Bulgaria over TO
united Balkans But that prospect has
passed. and Serbia is now holding on
to all she possesses in Macedonia, with
the allies supporting her
Greece's Interest in the Balkan con-
aict are partly local, partly interna-
part of Macedonia, particularly that
near Cavalla. the rich seaport on the
Aegean nearest Constantinople.
But besides this local issue Greece's

Egypt, the Suez canal. Turkey and the
east have inspired hopes of a greater
Greece, restoring the prestige of ancient

pathy on these aspirations. while Bull

have suddenly recognized that these little
Balkan states controlled the high road
from northern Europe to the orient-the

north and that vast vista of sleeping
power in the southeast: Turkey and the
Dardanelles. Egypt and the Suez canal,
Asia Minor and the Persian gulf and the
overland route straight from Berlin to

Bulgaria Alleges Atrocities.

Bulgaria has issued another PAM
phlet, printed at the royal printing es-
tablishment at Sofia. entitled How the
Serbs Behave in Macedonia giving
detailed accounts of alleged atrocities
in serbia's part of Macedonia against
priests of the Bulgarian state church.
These accounts are narrowing IN the
extreme, alleging that in some cases
BulRarians were crucified, others
buried alive, others tortured until they
died, with names and places. This
pamphlet is given as an evidence or
Bulgarias claim that her people in
Macedonia are being crushed.
Another of Bulgaria's allegations Is
that Rumania took $3.50 square kiio-
meters of Bulgaria's Black sea front
while her hands were tied during the
struggle with Turkey. This Black sea
country added 100000 people to Ru-
mania's population. The people are
Bulgarians, according to Bulgaria, and
she wants them back, and the Black
sea front, too.
Aside from these official claims there
are reports of other aspirations of Bull
garia. King Ferdinand is said to fore
see another great Byzantian empire
in southeastern Europe. with himself
as the first Car of Byzantium. The
realization Of this dream would mean
the absorption of the Balkan states
into Bulgaria, and her evolution into
an empire stretching to the Bosporus.
Cherif Pasha. the Turkish agitator, has
in Paris newspapers that the Young
Turk element had agreed with Bulgaria
to turn over constantinople to that
country rather than let it pass into the
hands of the allies through their as
sault on the Dardanelles.

Shift of Issues in Four Months.

This shift Of the Balkan issue. max
ing it part Of a great international
game instead of a petty struggle of
small states, has come about within the
last four months. The allied powers
were slow in realizing it. and their
negotiations with Bulgaria and Serbia
up to recent date treated the ques-
tion as the old fight over territory in
Macedonia. But all the time Germany

Each of the Balkan states has num-
Der of issues involved in the new strug-
gle. Some explanation of these has
been gathered from official and diplo-
matte sources-Serbian, Bulgarian.
Grecian and Rumanian-and from other
spective viewpoints about as follows:
Bulgaria considers herself the ag-
grieved party of the Balkans. She
claims to have done most of the fight
to have received the least of the re-
, ward. the bulk going to Serbia and
| Greece. which. Bulgaria claims. did not
do the hard fighting. The Bulgarian

Serbia, with the smallest territory
before the war, received oS,VuV square
kiIometers, of which $4,000 were fer

tion.
Greece, next smallest in area and
population, gained 5000 square kilo-

Bulgaria, the largest in area and
population. received only $4,000 square

fetal statement:
as this possible? Yes. And because
of it, this is what Bulgaria demands:
She is not satisfied with such a divi-
sion; she demands new one; she shuts
her ears to proposals of a Balkan union
in which she pays all the expense"

noon to halt the dash Of the flying Tigers.
Wyckof worked in two of the Detroit

definitely whom he would choose at the
