SERBIA GETTING
 BACK ON FEET
Peasants Have Done Won derful Work Since Arm
 istice Was Signed.

Nish, Serbia, Feb. Is. Three months of unremitting industry, un- hampered by Bulgarian and Austrian depredations or interferences, have enabled the Serbian people to secure a new hold on life. With the country entirely free of invaders, the large peasant population has succeeded in setting things in order in surprising fashion, and conditions should be al most normal soon.
 Large quantities of wheat and other staples, which the shrewd Serbian farmers hid from the enemy, have re- appeared. At the moment, the most pressing need seems to be clothing, shoes. fuel and agricultural imple- ments.
 Apparently there is plenty of money in the country, some of it having come from Austrian and German soldiers, who, 1t may be said to their credit. paid for most of the articles they took from the Serbians during their occupation. However, the BuIgarians who requisitioned almost everything they required from the already strait ened population, often paid nothing for what they took. In the cities most of the stores have no clocks because they sold almost everything to the Austrians and Germans.
 Fortunately the harvest last fall was exceptionally good, and there probably will be nothing approaching starvation among the poor this win ter. The enemy troops carried off al most every article of value they could lay hands on. but they did not have time, owing to the suddenness of their retreat, to take with them more than 2 per cent. of the available grain supply. Meat is abundant, though high in price. Before the war, it sold for 6 cents a pound, now it sells for 56 cents. Large numbers of sheep raised in the mountains furnish not only q valuable meat supply but an abundance of wool which has provld- ed the peasants with the only clotn> ing they have had in four years. Siberia's most vital need is clothing Even well-to-do persons are scantily clad. The Associated Press corre- spondent observed an army officer of high rank dressed in shirt made of flour sacks. The little clothing that may be bought is held at prohibitive prices The ordinary peasant worl1in g costume costs $150, shoes S5G, under wear of poor quality S25, and thread is priced at g a spool. \ consfg&-1>st of old clothes from the Buffalo, N. Y, chapter of 1le American Red Cross, valued at home at SIT, was appraise d at S1,60O by a merchant in the Pirot district where the Red Cross is carry ing on relief work. The Buffalo supplies were distributed on Christmas Day and brought happiness to many homes.

Declaration of Count Rant zau, German Foreign
 Secretary.

Basic, SwItzerlandd, Feb. 15.--Count won Brockerdorff-Rant the Ger man foreign secretary. in discussing Germany's foreign policy in the new National Assembly at Welmar yester- day. declared he had resisted and would continue to resist Allied at tempts to make Germany demobilize all her military forces.
 The task of the German nation as
 regarding foreign affairs might be summed up under two heads, said the foreign secretary, of which the first was the ending of the state of war and the second the establishment of normal relations with other peoples.
 Unfortunately" he continued,
 "Germany's voluntary disarmament has not softened our enemies. who recently attempted to settle on the basis of disarmament questions un- .doubtedIy appertaining to the Peace Conference. have repulsed and will continue to repuIse these attempts looking to the dissolution of all our old military forces and the substitu- ton of new republican troops for our old peace army, which could be used in the East.
 Germany has shouIdered the con sequences of defeat and is determined to observe the conditions agreed upon with her adversaries. These condi- tions imply the complete remuneration of the political aims of the old Ger many. We are ready to accept re- strictions upon our sovereignty, the compulsory submission of our differ ence with other states 10 an interna- tional court of arbitration. and the re nunciation Of our armament. if our old adversaries and future neighbors submit to the same restrictions"

son of Mr.. and Mrs. z. A. Joseph,

director at Sixteenth and Farnam

knew just how to do it. Everybody
was driving around like crazy, so
just stepped out an kept 'em goin'
right Pretty soon somebody
brought me a whistle, and then
things went easy"
The S. was presented to Verne
by Frank Brighton, editor OF New
Rochelle, N. Y, newspaper. Mr..
Brighton, after reading of Verne's
action during worst of the riot, tele-
graphed the following message to
The Bee:
Give the intrepid boy who kept
his presence of mind when older
people lost theirs the S. which we
telegraphed to you, and tell him he
wins special prize in our news

convictions. The motto of the
paper is: Right, Regardless of Re-

D'ANNUNZIO AT
WAR, HE SAYS IN
REPORT ISSUED
Jugo-Slavia Denies That 1t In
tended to Enter Fiume
by Force.

Fiume, Sept. 30.-(By The Associ-
ated Press)-"I consider myself in
a state of war with Jugo-Slavia."
Gabrielle D'Annunzio thus pro-
claimed from the municipal palace
of Fiume.
Troops had been sent to the first
line of reserves ready to answer any
need. Thus far the Italian Red Cross
has not appeared on the scene for
the purpose of giving assistance to
those within the city if necessary.
Contradicts D'Annunzio.
Paris, Sept. 30.-The Jugo-Slav
press bureau in Paris says it is au-
thorized to declare that, contrary to
the assertions of Gabrielle D'Annun-
zio, the Jugo-Slav government never
intended to enter Fiume by force
and never made military prepara-
tions to that end. 1t adds that DAN
nunzio's assertions are the merest
excuse for consumt ton abroad.
Rome, Sept. 30.-The Italians at
Trau, Dalmatia, have requested the
Italian government to send ship
to Trau for their protection and also
to obtain the release of prominent
Italians arrested by the Serbians.
The government has replied that it
cannot interfere, for the mainte-
nance of order in sections of Dalma-
tia are entrusted to the care of the
Americans, but that it will convey
the appeal.
