SERBS TO FIGHT
AGAIN IF BALKED
Envoy Gives Notice East Coast
of Adriatic Must Not Be
Given to Italy.
THREAT TO RENEW WAR
Nation Hopes America Will
Help to Override Secret
1915 Treaty Of Allies.
By fke Associated PyesJ.

PARIS, Jan. 4.-"Should the treaty
secretly signed by England. France,
Russia and Italy in 1915, whereby
Italy was to come into possession Of
the eastern coast of the Adriatic after
the war. be confirmed by the coming
psace conference. then Serbia would
tght again, and fight 10 the finish.
Serbia did not enter this war TO be-
como the vassal OF any nation. She
cannot agree to have Italy control
the territory In question"
Such was the straightforward state
rnent given to the Associated Press by
Dr. NJ. r. Fesnitch, the Serbian Min
lister TO France. in al interview to-
day. Or. Vesnitch added however.
that he believed the presence OF the
United States, which had already de
clared against secret treaties and In
favor of the rights of small nations,
assured fair Play"
SO far as the Jugo-Slavs were con-
cerned. he said. they did not recognize
the existence OF compacts made among
certain OF the Powers after the begin
ming of the war.
Serbia goes TO the conference be-
iiering that affairs will be directed there
IN accordance with the public announce
ments of the great Powers, especially
those OF President Wilson" continued
the Minister. I'VE feel that America
will look after the rights of small ma
tions. The position OK Serbia and The
Jugo-Siavs would be desperate II their
hopes did not rest in the principles laid
down BY America. They would be des-
perate because certain Of the great allied
Powers while announcing these prin-
ciples have entered into opposing con-
ventions and understandings Some OF
these understandings were directed
against Serbia.
Serbia is the only nation in Europe
! which has made no treaty OF any kind
with the Allies She has marched on

CoPENHAGEN, Jan. Count Won
Brockdorff- Rantzau, the new German
Foreign Minister, has issued state
ment outlining his policy but It has
not yet reached Copenhagen. From
comment in the Td0eblatt of Berlin II
appears he declared that Germany
must not yield to every peace condition
her opponents may wish to dictate
The Td0eblatt adheres to the Min
ister's point of view and says:
mo peace must be signed which
differs by the breadth of a hair from
the principles OF President Wilson
fourteen points which Germany has
accepted and the Entente willingly OF
unwillingly has signed"
The Ta0ebldtt then discusses Ger
many's delusions before the war and
says these were fed by fatal propa-
ganda which drove America into the war
and led to the inevitable catastrophe"
1T is necessary" the paper continues,
TO avoid the self-deception OF which
the Minister speaks. but II Is not neces-
sary TO plunge madly into self-humilia-
tion. Continuous lamentations and half
