WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Dec. 10.-Special:
First possibility of serious disagree
ment among the members of the
q%uadruple entente is developing with
the reluctance or Great Britain TO put
forth a major effort to check the
Teutons I'm the Balkans. The fire.
quent war councils of the allies,
which recently have been occurring
in France, are now seen to have been
due to differences of opinion con-
corning the importance of the Balkan
operations. The British apparently
have been for retiring from the field,
while others, certainly Russia and.
Serbia. at very least. are urging re-
doubled resistance.
Frances position. however much

tions, must secretly approve the Brit
ish attitude il abandonment Of the
Balkan operations means the concen-
tration of greater strength along the
western front. 1t was suggested in
this column December /, that the
western allies probably had decided
the major decision of the war must
be obtained in France and Belgium
and not i'm the Balkans. This Is true
for Great Britain and France, but not
for the Slavs. If the war ends with
the Teutons still dominant in the
Balkans, Russia's defeat will be com
plete.
Neither France nor Belgium can be
freed by driving Germans, Austro-
H%ungarians and B|ulgarians out of
Serbia. Ii Is probable there are 200,-
900 Teutons, 500, 900 Bulgarians and
100000 Turks ready for future OPP
erations In the Balkans. If France
and Great Britain match this force.
man for man, N Is difficult to see
how hope can exist of developing an
other major offensive in the west.
Unquestionably, however, both the
French and British want to try a new

PLAIN TRAIL LEFT
BY A SUBMARINE
tBy Associated Press.l

(By Associated Press1
LONDON, March 1S.--A new story
is told of the British submarine Bill,
whose commander, Lieut.. N. Hol-
brook. received the Victoria Cross
for Drawing the Dardanelles and sink
ing a Turkish battlesnip.
On entering the Dardanelles, the
submarine sighted Turkish patrol
boat. The Bill thereupon dived and
remaiTed below for some time. On
comng to the surface, the Turk was
seen steaming around in a circle.
After another dive, the commander
found the patrol still on hand. There
upon the commander rammed and
sunk her. The mystery was then
cleared. The Bill had fouled a buoy
and had been dragging II about on
the surface. so that all the Turks
had t. do was to follow the mark.
