killing, the Serbian Ministry of For
eign Affairs have had photographs,
copies of which were given to the
correspondent, showing six Serb peas

Serbia and the Serbian people as an

this end they hold that the Serbs no
longer exist, and every Serb must
become Bulgar, take Bulgar name,
and become a Bulgar citizen.
"Our Minister of War, General Ter
fitch, has just gone through a try
ing family experience of this kind.
His aged mother, over 20 years old,
remained in Serbia after the exodus,
as she was too old and feeble to make
the journey All trace of her had
been lost, but she was finally located,
General Terzitch applied through teh
relief authorities for her transfer.
But to this application the reply has
now come back from the Bulgar ua-
thorities that Nine. Terzitch cannot
leave the country as she has become
a Bulgar citizen.
THE drafting Of Serb peasants as
soldiers in the Bulgar ranks is one of
the worst forms of cruelty being prac-
ticed, This is systematically carried
out, with notices posted in all public
places telling all men over II years
of age to report for military service.
This placing of whole population in
the military service of the enemy is
an unheard of cruelty, and contrary
to every rule of international deal
ing in time of war But it is justi-
fled by the Bulgar on the theory that
Serbia does not exist and that the
Serbs are Bulgars.
"A member of the Serbian Chamber
of Deputies was here yesterday, and
gave ME a narrowing report of his
family still in Serbia. one of the boys
had already been killed The second
boy had been ordered to become a
Bulgar soldier. The mother protested,
wherupon she was sent to Nish AMI
put in prison, wher she went crazy.

Meantime the boy ordered to become
"a Bulgar soldier had escaped to teh
mountains and price had been placed
on his head This experience in the
family of the Serbian Deputy is mere
typical of the thousands we are hear
ing of from all quarters daily.
We have received detoils of the
revilt which the Serbian peasants
remaining in the country directed
against the Bulgar oppression" the
minister continued. This has come
in a letter from well-known teacher
The revolt was really revolt of wom-
en-of the Serbian mothers, wives
and sisters-in a frantic protest
against having their sons, husbands
and brothers forced into the Bulgar
ranks to fire on Serbian soldiers This
woman's movement became so threat
ening that a German division at Nish
was sent to quel it. When this ra1r-
ed, two Bulgar divisions were sent
against the increasing ranks of the
revolt.
This gave the -Bulgars the oppor-
tunity to perpetuate new infamy
Sending their troops against the wom-
en-. they took as prisoners a large
number of the wives, mothers and sis
tiers who had protested against their
being taken as Bulgar soldiers. Then
these wives and mothers were form
ed in ranks; placed ahead of the Bul-
gar divisions. and i'll this battle order
with the Serbian women in front as
screens, and by resort to the most
extreme cruelty that the revolt was
finally put down. In one case, the
writer of the letter gives details Of
seeing a Serbian peasant hung UP by
the tongue"
The minister spoke of the increas-
ing needs of these Serbian peasants
during the coming cold months. Those
Serbs who have escaped, and who are
here at Corfu and at various Balkan
points, can send little or no relief, for
they lost everything and have nothing
to give.
at is for this reason said the
minister, that the funds advanced
by the United States government are
truly providential, and are saving
Serbian lives, thousands Of them.
The advance made by the United
States was 100000 francs, or 49,,
100000 This was designed to cover
a period of three months; and at this
rate the advance for year would be
s12,0oOOOO or 6O,OOO,OOo francs. The
distribution of these funds is under
the direction of DR.. Nintchitch, with
the American Charge d'Acairs, H.
Percival Dodge, in frequent consulta-
ton it'll him. and exercising American
supervision.
In making Tie expenditures he first
