PRESCOTT. Ariz., Aug. 29.-After day spent in argument for and against a change of venue in the trial of Frank George, charged with the murder of Under Sheriff Ed overs here on July ? last, the superior court here today refused to grant the change
 Immediately after the case was called this morning, counsel for George asked for the change of venue on the ground that it was impossible for him to obtain a fair and impartial trial in Yavapai county because of the bias and prejudice existing as a result of Bowers popularity and also because of the published and spoken accounts of the death of Bowers. The fact that George was taken secretly from the county jail and was held in the state prison at Florence for sev eral weeks was declared by the de- fense to indicate that the cou y of ficials feared violence against George

Alexander Only Prince Of karageorgev;tch Accept able To Jugo-Slav; Bal
 kan Democracy Doubtful
RADICALS STRONG
Fear Bolshevism In Jugo- Slavia If Alexander Dies; Allies Unable To Bear Cost of Policing Balkan States
BY HERBERT COREY

WASHINGTON, Aug 29-"If Alexander of Jugo- Slavia dies. who will succeed hirn"
 That question was addressed to a man who knows the Balkans and their troubles thoroughly. Here is his answer:
 'sThe rider on the pale horse"
 His argument is brief one. Jugo- Slayia is held together today by this on man. Until yesterday, almost. heav-as an obscure princeling in the Balkan hills Today he might almost be called the life most important to the worlds safety Jugo- Slavia would not accept another Karageorgevftch prince as a ruler. It would fight to the last man against a prince im- posed from without. The exper- fence of the futile Prince of Wied in Albania is still remembered An effort to create democracy in the Balkan hills would be certain to crash. The Communist party is all most-but not quite-strong enough to take over the Jugo- Slavian gov ernment. It would assuredIv make an effort to take 1t over. however. and anarchy would probably follow.
 European Powers Too Busy
 ee causes which resulted in the
 gr&& war received their final i'm
 pu,&e through a Balkan muld der. The
 exhausted powers of Europe-vis-
 count Bryce has just declared them | bankrupt because of their war ex-
 penditures-are hardly able to un-
 dertake the policing of the Balkans
 in addition to the rest of the world
 that is being policed. With a Bol-
 shevist Russia at the Balkan elbow no one may say what might happen The one assurance of safety for the world is in Alexander's life
 When King Peter of Serbia died ir Belgrade the prince regent was un- able to attend the funeral The world was surprised, for few knew that ht was suffering from a serious attacl of appenditictis in Paris. The trutl had been hidden for fear of the pos sible consequences Under the Jugo- Slavian constitution the successor tt the throne must take the oath O succession in 10 days after the deatl of the reigning king. Therefore. { committee of Jugo- Slavian dignitar ies was sent post-haste from Bel grade to Paris to administer the oath Even if Alexander died in the act o taking it some little time would b. saved in which to consider the situa tion.

 FACE STARVATION
taepubIIcan A. p. Leased wirel

MOSCOW, Aug. 2s.-Leo Kame- neff, soviet relief director. told the correspondent today that 20.50o.000 persons in 15 provinces of Russia are facing starvation. Food resources were about 50 per cent below those of pre-war days. he added.
 Many of the seven million persons living in districts where crops proved failures began migrating to Turkes- tan and Siberia weeks ago. but this migration has been stopped by a government shipment of 350,00e poods (210,000 bushels) of seed grain and the assurance that more seed would be supplied to insure next years crops. Kameneff said only about 300,000 persons actually migrated and that this movement now was negligible.
 According to Kameneff, s.0o0.ooo persons have seed grain and four poods of grain for eating, but as II poods of the latter are necessary until the next harvest the people must have help. He said that seed and good medicines were imperative needs. The soviet government was ET1leLul TOT AIutTltd 8 ntlP lnfoue II Herbert Hoover, but is was desirous of letting the world know how much more aid was necessary. He said Russia could supply rolling stock and carriage, but that she would require coal to move grain northward from Novorossisk.
 Asked why the Donet Basin could not produce coal, he said it could if the workmen there were given food. He discredited rumors of a general cholera epidemic in the Volga and also said reports of serious attacks
 were untrue. as the peasants were showing that passive spirit char acteritic of Russians"
 Kameneff said that 225,000.00C poods of grain, including 1S.000.000 poods of seed grain, would be neces- sary to carry Russia through on
