BALKANS MAY
 BE GREAT IF
 PEACE IS KEPT
Development of Promising Natural Resources Will
 Bring Prosperity.

BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, July 10.- If peace can be maintained among the various countries of the Balkans they are destined to become, with gradual development of their promis- ing natural resources, extremely pros porous. according to Americans who have lived here and engaged in busi- ness since the war.
 The most potent influence at pres ent to maintain peace is the Little Alliance established by the help of the French at the conclusion of the general war. This at present is an intangible understanding between Czecho-Slovakia, Rumania and Jugo- slavia, countries which have never had conflicting national interests of serious importance. Greece and Bull garia,' if not Austria, may eventually be drawn into this understanding. One object of the alliance, if it can be so called is to block German in fluence; another is to settle quar- rels and eventually to arrange prac- tical customs and trading agreements similar to those in effect when much of this territory was under the Australian empire.
 When one considers the expressions of hatred daily indulged in by the Greeks and Serbs against the Bull ,ars. il would not appear probable
 hat any reasonable termination of .his hatred could be found. Yet it is the theory of Minister of Interior Manikovich. of Jugoslavia. that a permanent peace between the Serbs. chief of the Jugoslav union. With Bull garia. is logical. He maintains that they should try to go back to their original union. which had for it's pur- pose the defeat of the Turks. This, he says. is the secret of peace in the Balkans.
