Belgrade Grows Fast.

Belgrade is the fastest growing city
in Europe. judging from the big strides
it has made since the organization OF
the Triune Kingdom in 1918. In 1921
its population was 10000, in 1925 1t
was 10000, and in 1925 the quarter
million mark was passed. Back in 1900.
when Belgrade was merely the capital
of Serbia, its population was $4,000. In
1910 the number of inhabitants had
risen to $4,000, but in 1915, during the
Austrian occupation, there were only
about 5000 persons in the city, nearly
all of them women, children and aged
men.
