SERBS ARE CRUSHED
OFFICIAL STATEMENT ISSUED AT
BERLIN SAYS CAMPAIGN HAS
COME TO END.
PURPOSE is ACCOMPLISHED
Rudnik Captured and King Peters
Army is Fleeing Into the Albanian
Mountains-French Lose 10000 Men
and Situation Is Serious.

Berlin, Nov. 29.-Main headquarters
of the army issued the following Off
cial statement of operations in the
Balkans:
The prosecution of the Serbian
campaign continues.
"Rudnik. southwest of Mitrovitza,
has been occupied by our allied troops
More than 300 Serbians were made
prisoners and large quantities of war
material was captured.
With the flight of the scanty re-
mainder of the Serbian army into the
ALBANIAN mountains, our great opera
lions against this army are brought to
a close. Our object OF establishing
communication with Bulgaria and the
turkish empire has been accom-
plished."
Allies Situation Desperate.
The semiofficial Trans-Ocean News
bureau gives out the following:
THE allies situation in the Balkans
is desperate. The French losses on
the krivolak line are estimated at
10000 dead. while their retreat has
been made extremely difficult.
The Bulgarians have advanced un-
til they are in the immediate neighbor-
hood of Monastir.''
1S6,070 Serbians Captured.
The Austro-German campaign in
Serbia, including the uninterrupted
prosecution of the enemy for more
than 20 miles through a most difficult
and inhospitable country and in spite
OF bad weather and impracticable
roads, is paralleled in the worlds his
tory only by the prosecution of the
Russians in this campaign.
Up to this time 136,07O Serbians
have been taken prisoners and 627
cannon and 90 machine guns captured.
What is left of the Serbian army
will probably keep up a guerilla war
fare, while the saved divisions will
have a chance to join the Anglo
French forces. like the Belgians did,
as vanquished and little-esteemed mer-
cenary troops.
Greece Satisfies Allies.
London. Nov 26.-Greece has salts
fed the allies that there will be no
Greek interference with their Balkan
campaign under any circumstances.

used as pawns in the competitive bat
tie between the big manufacturers
and the little man who starts up like
a mushroom over night with one

and has worked in many factories.
There are girls who cry when
they open their pay envelope" Miss
COhn said to me. PAY day is not
one of Joy, in which they think of how
they will spend their money. 1t is
one of dread planning how to make
up what they lack. In the past few
years wages have decreased from 40
to so per cent. The most experienced
girls, who could, in the busy season,
make as high as $25 a week a few
years ago cannot make more than
So or SO now, and that is high wage.
"'And it is due to the fact that there
is no specialization here. The Inter
national Ladies' Garment Workers
union forced this specialization in
New York city because it had a
strength of 10000 members. Spe-
ciaIization eliminates the little man
with one machine and helps the big
employers maintain their prices. In
addition it increases the workers eff
fciency so that the same number of
girls can turn out three times the
amount of work.

here to make a whole wrapper and
is paid $1.2O a dozen wrappers. She
