Youngest Monarch, Who Reigns But
Does Not Rule, Coming To L. S.
BY MILTON BRoNNER.

LONDON-If Boris Third. tsar OF
Bulgaria comes to America this fall
as announced, Americans will see
not only the youngest monarch in
Europe, but one who is at the head
OF the most democratic people in
Europe.
Boris reigns, but does not rule.
AS matter of fact. the rulers Of
Bulgaria today are the peasants act
ing throught the Agrarian party.
Peasant farmers constitute SIS per
cent. of the population. Their wheat
and pigs are the country's chief
source of wealth.
Boris came to the throne when
his country was all shot to pieces.
IL had been in two wars in recent
years and lost both The first was
when Bulgaria battled with Serbia
and Greece and was thoroughly
trounced. Then in the recent war,
Boris father, Tsar Ferdinand. was
so pro-German that he took his
country in on the side of the Cen
trail Powers and once more Bulgaria
was licked.
Son Makes Good
Ferdinand fed His oldest son.
born Jan. 30. 1894, was called to the
troubled country's throne Oct. 4.
1918. He has made good.
His father had been a little auto
crat who changed his title from
prince to king and from king to
tsar Boris found a parliament in
which the peasants dominated, and
was content to. have 1t so.
Ferdinand sent M. Stambouliski.
the leader Of the peasants. to prison
Tor warning him against taking
Bulgaria into the war on the side
Of Germany.
Under Boris this same Stambou-
liski is premier and he has the farm
ers back OF him.
Ferdinand was always dreaming
OF TERRITORIAL aggrandizement which
meant war with Balkan nesghbors.
Boris dream of peace with his
neighbors ana development of the
resources Of his country.
Ferdinand was a physical coward
who shrank from mingling with his
subjects for fear of assassination.
Boris doesn't know the word fear
and mingles freely with his people
He lives almost an monastic life in
the palace, part of which he has
closed up. He is practicing the
economy he feels is necessary for
Bulgaria II it is to pull itself out OF
the hole into which it fell during the
war.

era before the meeting of the Sim
rem Parliament, which is TO con-
sider the British proposal.
Although the contents of the
irlsh note were closely guarded, it
was learned from various sources
that the communication was vague
and difficult to interpret.
The note apparently was drafted
oy tnree collaborators. The i'm
preston prevailed that while 1t con-
tanned no specific requests its gem
eral tone was discouraging, and that
tnere was no inclination to insist on
too many concessions.
While it was believed release of
the 45OO p&itical prisoners in Ire
land was not specifically demanded.
the note was said to intimate that
such action would facilitate settle
ment Of the Irish problem. In this
connection 1t was regarded as signi-
meant that Viceroy Fitzalan and
General MacReady participated in
today's cabinet meeting.
The one optimistic portion OF the
note, according to one version, was
that it indicated the Ulster ques-
tion was capable Of solution. In
some circles it was declared that the
note demanded full Irish indepen-
dence' but this could not be verified.
Advices from Dublin. whine throw
