GREECE IN PINCH
SalOniki Offensive Centers
About Little Kingdom.
Whether She'll Repulse German
Invasion Is PrOblematic.
BY ]. W. T. MASON.

New York, March 9.-New German
designs for spring offensive against
the allies position at Saloniki, would
result. if carried out, in throwing
Greece into the arms of the allies for
self protection.
The Greeks, at present, are reluc-
tant to take an active part in the war
A sweep by the central powers, how
ever. into the Attic peninsula could
not be accomplished except at the cost
of such great disruption to Greek life
as would follow a belligerent invasion.
The allies situation at Sa1oniki inter-
fereS to minimum extent with the
Greeks, but if Greece were turned into
a battlefield, the population could not
remain passive.
Guard BuIgar Ambitions.
Every national interest of the
Greeks would then press for active
participation in the war with the al
lies. The substitution of German oc-
cupation of Saloniki in place of the
allies, would mean that Greece must
thereafter accept an inferior position
in the Balkans. Bulgaria, Greece's
principal rival for Balkan leadership,
would be able to dominate Greece
with the assistance of the German
army of occupation.
1t is not to Germany's interest to
permit Bulgaria to occupy too power
full a field in southeastern Europe.
Such a development would interfere
with Germans "mitteleuropa" plans.
The Greeks must not be made hostile
to. Germany by deliberate acts of ag-
gression, if Germany hopes to try to
extend her ''mitteleuropa" idea. A Sc
rious blunder, as to developments af-
ter the war would, therefore, be COM
mitted if the Germans carried HOSTILE
ties into Greece
Allies Superior on West Front.
The west front is now the decisive
area of the war. The announcement
by the British government that the al
lies have a superiority there in men.
guns and aeroplanes indicates that a
new German attempt to break thru
would invite an even greater disaster
than German assault against Salon
Xxi. The Germans are now on the
defensive and must remain there if
they hope to save their man-power
from well nigh permanent Gripping.

SPEED UP! MORE PEP!
New Army Chief Asserts Ships and
Big Guns Are Paramount.
BY CARL D. GROAT.

Washington March 9.-Am erica
must speed up her shipbuildings, so
that the American army abroad can
grow and so it and the allies can be
supplied, and she must put more pep
into her war work.
This, in substance, is the doctrine
Chief of Staff March has laid down to
other war chiefs. Seeking to inject
some of his own pep" into prepara-
tons, he has sought to visualize
American needs and to impress upon
such leaders as Chairman Hurley of
the shipping board and Vance McCor-
mick of the war trade board the need
for speed and the fullest energy.
Big guns are a paramount need.
March is understood to believe that
these are even more vital than men
for the moment And he has shown
the war workers that more ships must
be hurried up to meet pressing supply
problems
At present supply problems are
pressing for with the allied super
iority in material diminishing, it is
necessary that the available tonnage
be quickly increased.
The allies are politely but constant
ly pressing this government for more
ships and their views are reflected by
March, Colonel House and others who
have had a full inside view of the
situation.
March is convinced that the allied
American line in the west cannot be
broken, but he is impressing upon his
co-workers the thought that the Ger
mans will last CORRESPONDENCE longer
if big guns, airplanes and other sup
plies along with a stable army are
delayed

and Serbia. And these atrocities are
realize them. They are too terrible
men to tell you of them.
Don't let yourself be deceived as to
the needs of the allies. Unless We
help them they will starve, for they
have no way to get food. England,
with her dense population and small
territory. has never been able to raise
more than one-fifth of her food sup
ply. By heroic efforts, by the work
of her women in the fields. she has
succeeded in raising that amount to
one-third. But where is she to get the
other two-thirds? There are 100000
600 bushels of wheat rotting on the
wharves of Australia because we have
no ships to convey it in. The allies
cannot get wheat and mutton from
Australia, sugar from Java or tea from
India and Ceylon, as they have been
doing, because there are no ships and
the lands are SO far away. Russia has
been the worlds supplier of wheat
but you know how much wheat we
will get from Russia now-what the
Germans don't want
You hear the question, why don't
we send corn to the allies instead of
eating it ourselves and sending the
wheat? In the first place it cannot be
shipped ground, because cornmeal
use in sending it unground, because
the food and have no mills to grind it

Refugees on Way to Sweden.

Stockholm, March 9.-The Ameri-
can consul at Helsingfors, Thornwell

CATION here that he is leaving the Fin
nish capital Friday with about
twenty American residents
Some 800 refugees of different ma
tionalities, including many Americans,
are at Abo and Bjorneborg and Min
lister Morris has asked the Swedish
government to send an icebreaker to
bring them across the Gulf of Bothni
to Getle.
A Stockholm resident has received
a letter from a friend in Helsingfors
dated February % in which it is said
that instead of a regular ration of
grain flour and a half ration of pc
tato flour. that was to have been is
sued that week, only fish was distrib-
uted
The letter. which was sent by cour-
Ter, expressed the hope that the United
States for humanitarian motives
would send grain to be kept at Mar
vaki or Haparanda and rationed out
only on condition that the Firms stop
fighting among themselves.

He'll Give Impressions Thru
His Two Characters.
"Bud' Resigned From U. S
Army To Go to the Front.

Bud Fisher, the cartoonist, who
draws Mutt and Jeff, and the biggest
salary ever paid a newspaper artist,
more than 100000 a year, has just
been made a captain in the British
army.
Fisher, who has always been in
terested in soldering and who cam
in 1915. when he was made a captain
in that army, attended the last
Plattsburg camp. He was COM
missioned lieutenant in field ar
tillery and assigned to Camp Meade.
Fisher found that it would prob
ably be some time before that divi-
sion got abroad, and he was anxious
to see the Show so he recently Of
fered his resignation in the American
army, which was accepted by the
secretary of war. He was then of
fered and accepted a commission as
captain in the British army.

Fisher after receiving his new COM
mission and rank, I'VE are all fight
ing for the same thing, and what 1
wanted to do was to get overseas. 1t
makes no difference whose khaki you
wear. / would like to have gone with
the Americans, but l had this chance
for foreign service Immediately so L
grabbed old opportunity by the front

Captain Fisher has been appointed
to Lord Beaverbrook's staff and will
start for overseas in about two
weeks. He is going to take Mutt and
Jeff to the trenches with him and
will express his impressions of the
bitches and the tin derbieS thru these
two famous Americans. 1t is felt
that Mutt and Jeff in overseas SER
vice will be great tonic to the
American reading public and to the
soldiers in, the trenches. Fishers pic
lures will be circulated among the
English-speaking troops on the west
ern front, and. they should serve to
cheer the defenders of democracy,
for Mutt and Jeff will be sharing
their troubles and their laughs.
There is an axiom abroad that only
a man in uniform can kid the war;"
as Capt Bruce Bairnsfather of the
British army has done The British
war office considers his work of
great value as a tonic and keeps him
on special service in France. Bud"
Fisher is now in khaki and will take
two real American friends abroad
with him-Mutt and Jeff.

Relief from Eczema

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, OF
extra large bottle at $1.00.
Zemo generally removes pimples, black.
heads, blotches, eczema, and ringworm
and makes the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is a clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
nothing. 1t is easily applied and costs a
mere trifle for each application. It is
always dependable.
