FOR LIQUOR BILL

RALEIGH, March 9.-(UP).-
Among allies of the Hill liquor
control bill in the North Carolina
general assembly, none appears
stronger today than the bulky
document labelled "an act to make
appropriations for state depart
ments."
However, members of the legis-
lature may drink and vote; what
ever their political obligations,
fears, or aspirations may be; no
matter if they see solace or SER
pent in the wine bottle, they're
caught in a web of seeminging in

United freSS StdH SorTeoPohShN
WASHINGTON, Mar. 8. (UP).
Sen. William f. Borah, R., Ida,
charged late yesterday that the
government was clubbing the
small man out of existence as the
administration warned the senate
finance committee that delay N
revising the MIRA was threaten
ing recovery.
At the same time, Borah sur
prised his colleagues by asserting
that President Roosevelt and for
mer NRA Administrator Hugh S.
Johnson had disagreed sharply
over methods of protecting the
little man under the New Deal.
The Idaho Republican, who is
fighting for full restoration Of
antitrust laws, took the floor to
refute statements before the sem

aid R. Richberg, close adviser to
Mr.. Roosevelt, that the little OPP
orator had Jared very well under

THINK LEAGUE.
MAY ACT UPON
BALKAN CRISIS.
Leadership Alarmed Over
Turkish Attitude in the
Greek Revolt
AMERICAN STEAMERS
AVOID GREEK PORTS
BY WALLACE CARROLL
United Press Staff Correspondent

GENEVA, March 9.-CUP).-
The League of Nations may take
action in what is now regarded as
the gravest threat to Balkan
peace since the World war.
The league leadership, alarmed
by Bulgarian declarations that
Turkey is undertaking threaten
ing military movements near the
border, and Turkeys stiff reply
that these movements are neces-
sarv because of the Greek revolt,
probably will present the case to
the members of the league coun-
Gil, for definite action.
The Balkans, almost overnight,
thus have become again a poten-
tial source of international explo-
sion. Gieece's neighbors have
taken advantage of the rebellion
as an exiuse for throwing their
first troois into frontier posts.
All the political moves that have
been made within recent years by
the Little Entente and the Balkan
Entente appeared last night to be
jeopardized.
King Boris of Bulgaria was
known t, have met with the gen.
eral stat and the supreme war
council, to examine the whole Bal
kan situation. AS result of this
confererce, more troops are to be
dispatched to the Greek frontier.
Messages from Sofia, however,
stressed that Bulgaria has no am
bition 10 extend her territories,
and that she merely intends 10
keep her frontiers inviolate."
Three French warships an
chored IN Greek waters yesterday,
Joining two British warships, TO
protect their nationals in event of
rebel bombarGment of Athens
and other cities.
Since early morning cannon
have bombarded in the fog along
Greece's northeast frontier, indl-
eating a heavy artillery duel be-
tween the rebel and government
forces.
Commercial planes, in their last
flights over Greece, reported roads
choked with long columns of In
fantry and horse supply carts.
Geneva yesterday heard that
the Turks were moving infantry,
in full war footing, to within
three miles of the Thracian from
tier.
That was the chief cause OF
Buigar alarm, for Sofia contend
ed the Turks were menacing both
Bulgaria and Greece.
Some observers, however, be-
lieve Turkey will remain loyal to
her territorial status quo, as guar
anteed by the Balkan pact.
Arrival of the French cruisers
Tourville and Foch, following the
destroyer Verdun, which reached
Piraeus Thursday. was be!leVeo
sufficient to protect French inter.
ests, and the movement was not
regarded as a menace. Ihree
Italian cruisers have been ordered
to the Aegean. .,o

There are no United States war

ATHENS, March 9.-(UP).-
General George Condylis, gov
eminent commander-in-chief, has
arrived on the Macedonian front
to lead personally the three-way
offensive against the rebels. He
ordered bombing planes to de-
moralize the rebels and scouting
planes to reconnoiter.
Society women are leaving for
the front as nurses. Mrs. Lima

With wholesale assertions from

General Camenos, it's northern
leader, was quoted by the govern
ment as declaring 1--WE are lost. "
His dramatic declaration came
at the end of a message address
ed to his troops and intercepted
by government radio.
General George Condylis wired
to Premier Panayoti Tsaldaris
that the barracks, the railway
station and the governors resi-
dence at Seeria were once more
bombed from the air and by a
battery of artillery, and COM
pletely destroyed.
One government airplane, he
announced, had crashed. The
river Strymon was rising rapidly.
the rainy weather handicapped
the progress of the artillery.
The government, jubilant over
the prospects of an early termi-
nation of it's struggle, declared
the rebel forces have become de-
moralized and broken.
In Macedonia, where there was
brisk cannonading throughout
the day, the government report
ed rebel resistance greatly weak

General Camenos sent a mes
sage to his fellow commanders
referring to the wholesale de,
sertions" from his ranks, and
ending with his declaration that
the cause was lost.
Meanwhile, communists were
adding their subversive influence
! to the rebel troops. In the towns
, of drama and Cavalla communist
groups demanded that the rebel
officers obey the commands OF
communist non-commissioned Of

rebellion.
Some of the rebels are said to
have imprisoned the metropolitan
of the church and several high
prelates because they declined to
