WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.z-While recent
reports OF the actual opening Of an Of

Salonik appear to have been premature.
the accounts Of various troop move
ments are held in military quarters
to indicate that such an offensive Is,
probably not far distant
Athens dispatches today tell OF con-
tinued concentration Of German, Aus
trian and Bulgarian forces on the Greek
frontier, together with the transfer of
heavy artillery southwark from Nish.
With such a movement in the Balkans
in prospect, reports that come out Of
Rumania command increasing interest.
Advices from allied sources declare chat
the friction between Rumania and the
central powers has increased and that
Rumania, supposedly in view OF the re-
ported threatening attitude of Germany
and Austria, has collected forces close
to the Austro-Hungarian frontier.
There is a paucity of news of active
operations in any of the war fields, prob
ably for the good reason that few inn
portant movements are now actually In
progress. The chief capitals of the en-
tente allies, however, appear to be inn
pressed with the idea that an Important
offensive Is shortly to be begun by the
Germans in the west.
The belief is prompted largely b.
the military movements noted along the
Franco-Belgian front.
