 SERBS BITTER
 King Peters ill-conceived lith hour order "abolishing' Mikhailo- vich's command upon London eliktat-can only serve further to in- flame the situation. Reliable Serbian sources informed this writer early this week that Mikhailovich's of- ficers. loyal to Peter within Yugo- siavla and abroad. will serve notice upon the King that unless he re- turns immediately to Serbia to par- ticipate in combat against the en. emy 'as fighting Karageorgeyich kings have always done" the Serbs will cease to recognize him as their monarch.

Bombshell Balkan developments, though they paint a black picture for Adolf Hitler. do not forecast a push.over for the Allies in south- eastern Europe.
 Bulgarias surrender could pro. duce a disastrous parallel in Ger. many to the Bulgarian collapse la the first World War. Bulgarian cap. ltulation actually broke the back of the Central Powers in the Balkans, doomed the outflanked remnants of Mackensens desperate. hungry arm. les and foreshadowed quick. cer. tain defeat for Imperial Germany.
 This potential parallel cannot be lost upon Hitler and Nazi leaders. Indeed. some European experts abroad who have elung dogeedly to an early ie9s date for the wars end. concede nov that the kaleidoscoplc developments in the southeast may force European peace this winter.
 In some quarters. however mot. ably among Balkan specialists -- healthy pcssimism still prevails. Facts behind this reasoning are sharp and well-deflned. Here are the important issues, and the prob- able Balkan developments, as the experts sec them:

State had been established; Tur- key had become a republic; Greece had become a republic.
 Germany was republic. but there trouble was brewing again: q group of political incendiagies were gathering in a beer hall in Munich and plotting putsches to overthrow the government.
 And in Italy. young Benito Mus s0lini, the vagrant. had marched on Rome and set up his Fascistic government.
 Eisenhower, in America, always vitally interested in history. vas watching these developments with f0rebodings. Tn 1928. the year Of the death of Woodrow Wilson, he re- turned to the States from Panama. And We find him a recreation officer in the headquarters of the Third Corps Area at Baltimore. Oct. l to Dec. 8. 1923.
 He leaves Maryland and goes to Colorado where he becomes re. cruiting officer at Fort Logan from Dec. l5. l924 to Aug. i9, 1925. It was here in Colorado. where he had marFied Mamie Doud seven years before. that another son was born io them to succeed the little fellow gho had died in Maryland. His wife had come home from Panama and the second son was born in Denver on Aug. 3. 1928. and christ ened after his mothers father, John D0ud.

 Several ministers in the present Greek cabinet recently came to Cairo to help compile records to aid recon. struction planners. and their in. formation was supplemented by re- ports of persons arriving from Greece.
 Latest incarnation gathered by Greek minister of information, e. CartaliS. showed that public eco- nomy has ceased to exist in Greece. There is no currency. and no com munications. his report said. Agri- cultural production has decreased by 65 per cent and stock farming by 90 per cent.
 Forests Destroyed
 Forests have been cut down by occupation armies for construction of houses for the German army in Russia. Caralis said. and it will be g years before those regions can be developed again.
 Reconstruction will demand great enegry. but the Greeks have suffered SO much from starvation and disease that vigorous survivors are few.
 Tuberculosis and malaria have struck down thousands. At Athens, 25.000 students last year took med teal examinations. Twenty-Five per cent were found healthy; the rest were tubercular. Drainage systems were wrecked by the conquerors and new marshes. bringing a malaria epidemic. were formed.
 Line Up Fer Water
 Tn urban areas. water is scarce, according to all reports. Athenians get water three times a week after standing in line for hours.
 Reports show that 879 villages have been completely destroyed in enemy reprisais for underground ac- tivity. while another 460 have been plum tered and partially burned.
 It is estimated that of the l.738.- 900 buildings in Greece. 1000 have been destroyed or damaged. More than 100000 persons are homeless. and 10000 workers are unemployed.
