The military situation In the Near
East, part. cularly thai OF the Allies in
Macedonia. is not one which can be set
forward In terms OF an exact PROPOSE
ton. says Hilaire Belloc. in an article
on 'Salonica' In the London weekly
Land aud Voter OF December II. The
article is copyrighted In the United
states by the New York American. In
part 1t says:
"Th present allied force in Macedonia
is ou:number.d. 1t will have to face a
very large ~preponderance of heavy ar
tilery. The EXTENDED positions which
II now occupies can obviously be turned
upon either Hank. ANY considerable po-
Utica! change. but particularly a change
In the attitude of Rumania, would at
once transform the problem. Greek re-
fusal to le; US use Salonica would alter
1t. But as II stands the problem IS con
fined to these two alternatives: the
abandonment Of Saionica altogether and
the reembarkation of the allied expedl-
tionary force. or the search for a line
along when those forces would be suf'i-
clent to keep Sa!onic open-granted
Greek neutrality at least.
when II was clear that all attempts
to Join hands with the main Serbian
force had failed, that the Bulearians
were hinily established ut Cskub anu
at Neles. able to bring against w very
much larger forces than our own, the
retiiement from the original line began.
We know that the French were pre-
pairing the evacuation of The Camp of
kavadar, were still holding a week ago
the d.fie OF the Demir Kapu, and were
in general retiring down the single line
which follows the Nardar Valley toward
the SEA. Suppose that retirement TO con-
tinue successfully, aided by the delay
necessary to the enemy before he can
bring up weapon and munitionmeiu
particularly tor his heavy guns) from
the north. We have to consider II line
which $50, 900 men-or say even ZOO
900 at the most-could old.
THE first thing that strikes US is that
the conformation OF the coast line around
Salonica is a handicap to "A continuous
defensive line. 1t demands more men
than other conformations would. There
are. roughly speaking, three types of
port. the defence OF which may be called
respectively a coastal line. a peninsula
and a gulf. or estuary. II you have a
straight line and YOU have to defend "A
