.STRIKEFOEFROM
EAST FOR VICTORY,
GREEK ENVOY SAYS

The eastern war theater was urged
by Greek Minister George Roussos to-
day As the logical spot for a death
blow at the Central Empires.
DR.. Roussos declared the western
I front would remain a virtual fortress
! where countless lives and incredible
/ amounts Of munitions would be blast
| ed away to no avail On the other
hand, he argued, the east offers q
weak link in the Teuton chain-a
chance to achieve victory, without
| the seesaw and the threatened stale
mate Of the west.
Termed Vital Spot.
the vital spot in the Teutonic
alliance is the east" Roussos de-
clared. Napoleon stF1ck through
| Italy and brought the fual monarchy
/ to its knees. An offensive aimed at
Laibach and Vienna alone will shat
| ter Germany's Mittleuropea scheme"
The United States has at last rec
| ognized that Austria cannot be peace
fully eRtranged from Germany, he
declared, and the recognition OF the
Jugo-Slav aspirations followed as the
| logical result.
The AlbanIans and other Austro-
Hungarian subjects" he continued,
will never revolt until Germany suf-
fers q serious defeat
At Germans Mercy.
The Teuton military machine has
them at its mercy. A concerted drive
from SalonIki and another from Italy
toward Laibach, Pola. and the Tren-
tino, however, would threaten Ger
many's now Unchallenged domina-
ton there"
The allies now have about 100000
troops in the Balkans Roussos stated.
Five hundred thousand OF these are
British. French. and Italians. Two
hundred thousand are Greeks. Greece
is rapidly mobllizing, and can add
almost an equal number, bringing the
allied Balkan army to a million men.
Germany has only about four d.
divisions on the SalOniki front. while
the BuIgarians, Austrians and Turks
make the total around 100000. To
conduct an offensive with any rea-
sOnable chance OF success the central
powers must have in excess OF
100000. Roussos declared.
Fear Foe Offensive.
Possibility OF a German offensive
in the near East in case the western
offensive ends in a stalemate. is trou-
bling Balkan statesmen. Germany
will have to bolster up Austrian mo
rale sooner or later, II is suggested,
and a successful offensive against
Italy will aid greatly. The capture
Of Venice would mean the establish
ment OF a base opposite POla, which
would eliminate the necessity Of
transporting troops, munitions and
supplies through mountain dcfles.
A campaign on the SalOnih front
would be more difficult, however. and
would find the allies better prepared.
Greek morale IS admirable. according
To Roussos cablegrams from Foreign
Minister Politis. The foreign minister.
accompanied by the French and ROu-
manian representatives. in Greece, have
just completed a trip OF inspection over
three departments in the PhIllppOpOneS
and found conditions far better than
expected" the cable stated.
