WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.--If the al
lies talk peace with Bulgaria, the old
Balkan problem, one of the indirect
causes of the war, will be ripped
wide open again for a definite settle
ment by the concert of nations.
The United States, despite the
Washingtonian policy of ''hands off"
in foreign matters, will be placed in
the peculiar position of being asked
to unscramble the egg which for
nearly a century has dripped trouble
over Europe.
And the Balkan egg is so thorough
ly scrambled that we're going to have
a lovely job on our hands.
1t viii be almost entirely an Amer
lean job, for this reason: the United
States is the only one of the allied
nations that has not declared war on
Bulgaria, and therefore the only one
that can successfully negotiate with
her. There is little doubt that Presi-
dent Wilson with his shrewd fore
sight had this in mind when he kept
the sword we drew against Germany
and Austria rom striking Bulgaria.
Wilson's Problem.
Here is the problem he now has to
face:
1. Bulgaria at a peace conference
with the allies would not, of course,
be in a position to dictate terms, but
it could make requests. These re-
quests would be for the annexation
IF .territory taken from her by Greece.
Serbia and IRumania after the Balkan
war of 1913, which Bulgaria claims
on the grounds OF nationality. This
territory includes the Dobrudja, now
part of Rnmania; a slice of northern
Macedonia, now part of Greece, and
almost half of Serbia. Gear Ferdi-
nand will insist that he is entitled to
territorial compensation for quitting
the war and opening the allies path
TO the back door of Austria
z Serbia and Greece naturally
VIII interpose strenuous objections to
giving up any of the territory for
which they fought the Turks and La
ter the Bulgars to win. They will

Women Asked
For Linens For
French Hospitals

A cablegram has recently been re-
oeived at National Red Cross Head
quarters in Washington from the
French Red Cross Commissioner, max
ing a very urgent appeal for linen
for the hospitals in France.
Owing to the scarcity of such arti
Giles at the present time it is thought
best not to buy these articles from
the stores, as this would greatly de-
plete what is now a small stock of
these things, but to make the appeal
direct to the housewives. They are
asked to contribute to Red Cross
Linen Shower, which will be held at
the various Red Cross headquarters
throughout the country during the
present week.
The Martinsburg chapter must con-
tribute the following amount OF lin
ems of various kinds, as near the size
given as possible:
100 bath towels, 14x3S inches.
200 hand towels, 1Sx30 inches.
100 handkerchiefs, 1Sx18 inches.
100 napkins, 14x14 inches.
so sheets of heavy unbieaehed mus
lin, 64xl02, are wanted. Nothing less
than 62x100 can be accepted A hem
two inches wide at the top and one
inch wide at the bottom are specified,
but should hens vary the sheets will
not be rejected
1t is hoped that the linen shower
can be managed without the need of
making a house to house canvass.
Everybody is extremely busy just at
this time and the appeal is being
made through the newspapers in or
der to make it unnecessary to take
people away from their work.
S Donations will be received at the
Red Cross rooms, on last Burke St.
every day this week

The Egg OF The Balkans
u. S. Must Unscran1bIe 1t
PRESIDENT WILSON TO DECIDE PROBLEM OF BULGAR-
IAN BOUNDARIES.

ho,d that the disputed territory is as
much Serbian and Greek in popula-
tom and national characteristics as it
is Bulgarian, which comes pretty
close to being the fact.
3. President Wilson has made
clear his stand On the Balkan prob
lem in the following announcement,
the eleventh in the series of fourteen
American war aims he announced
last January:
3Rumania, Serbia and Montenegro
should be evacuated; occupied terri
tories restored; Serbia accorded free
and secure access to the sea, and the
relations of the several Balkan states
10 one another determined by friend
ly counsel along historically estab-
lished lines of allegiance and nation
atty, and International guarantees of
the political and economic indepen-
dence and territorial integrity of the
several Balkan states should be en-
tered into"
Means Austria's Finish.
Can the President live up to this
solution of the Balkan problem, which
on the fact of it is the ideal one, and
still satisfy Greece, Serbia and Ru-
mania
Unquestionably there is Justice in
the Bulgarian claim to parts of Rt-
mania and Macedonia. King Ferd-
nand has assidously cultivated the
peasants OF Macedonia for 30 years
into the belief that the Bulgar race is
superior to the Greek or the Serb.
and he might offer to leave the ques-
ton of nationality to a plebiscite.
There is just as much justice in the
claim of the other Balkan nations to
the disputed territory, for the cities
OF Macedonia are populated by
Greeks, Surbs and Bulgars alike.
What will the solution be? Will it
be found in some sort of an allied
protectorate over the whole territory,
or will the allies delineate the Bal
kan boundaries and be forced to keep
the peace by force of arms?
Whatever the answer, there is COM
fort in he fact that at least the de-
lection of Bulgaria marks the be-
ginning of the end, first for Austria
Hungary and finally for Germany.

awaiting the arrival of relatives from
Bismarck, who will return with him to
this city. ...
Some time ago Mr.. Healey suffered
a severe fall. and since that time he
has frequently complained Of severe
headaches. He appeared normal in
every way, however, until yesterday.
when he was suddenly stricken with
a complete nervous collapse. County
authorities at Hillsboro today tele-
phoned relatives here that they feared
he could not recover.
John Hetaley is one of Eismarck's
best known residents. For a number
of years he was employed as reporter
on various local newspapers, and re.

proved up. He took an active part
in the recent Knights of Colum IT'S

is believed to be due to his recent
injury, which is believed to have af.
