b. the Associated Press.
BERN, Switzerland, March 28.-
Bulgaria was pledged in principle
today to war against Russia by her
Premier. Bogdan Philov, but he
avoided an outright promise of the
troops which Adolf Hitler has de-
manded of King Boris.
Thanks to our army" Philov told
the Bulgarian Parliament, the little
Balkan kingdom could fulfill her
tasks in the Axis and was ready
for all sacrifices. He declared "the
destruction of Bolshevism" was es-
sential, the French news agency

although we are not fighting, we
are in a state of war with all its
dangers" Philov declared. The Pre-
mier added that Bulgaria's duty
was to increase as much as pos
sible our production by exploiting
all possibilities
Token Troops Indicated.
Observers said this did not mean
that troops would go to the bleak
Eastern front. Some suggested the
statement might mean that King
Boris, who saw Hitler this week, had
made good bargain and would
send only token volunteer" troops.
Our fate is inSolubly linked up
with the fate of our Allies" Philov
told the closing session of Parlia-
ment, the first task of putting into
being the new order is the deStruc-
tion of BolsheviSm. which has al
ways been a great danger for Europe
and civilization"
He said he was convinced that
"the people are ready for all sacri-
fees which may be necessary"
Reports from Istanbul told of a
considerable new influx into Bull
garia of German troops and airmen
and of intense defense construction
along the Turkish border. The
German military was said to have
taken over three large Sofia hotels.

Union. Bulgaria had considered
Russia its big brother" in inter-
national relations She had stead
fastly refused to enter any pacts or
alliances directed at the U. S. S. R.
