If GREEKS OPEN
1 TO SUSPICION
I 1 1 IK London, Dec. 11, 1:53 a. m. The po-
I IJ BlUon of the allied forces In Greece
I Itl furnishes the chief subject for discus-
I M b1ou n the London morning newspa-
I II,' pers. Optimistic official statements
1 fj 1 1 failed to persuade the press and pub-
; lie that the situation is not Berious.
ill It is generally admitted that no alter-
Ujjj native to the withdrawal of the allied
Rl forces to Salonlki exists and some
papers, notably the Weekly Nation,
jj! go so far as to advocate re-embarka-
I HI tlon of the troops while freedom of
'Bill movement is till possible rather than
1f rjsk the possibilities duo to thojier-
(S plexlng attitude of the Greek govern-
jlll m6nt.
lit Dispatches which are said to have
Ml evaded censorship have been received
I ill in London during the week, indlcat-
I 111 ,nK suspicion of the Greek intentions.
Ill 1 1 was alleged in the dispatches that
10 1 ' Greek officers openly talked of the
In I ' time when they would attack the al-
I , j Hee and continued with the assertion
lll'js that a fortnight ago Greek military
J '$ movements in the neighborhood of
I ft j Salonlki became suspicious. Whether
j II or not reliance can be placed in these
mU reports, it is certain that the Greek
JjPk attitude is the cause of great dis-
j(i quietude.
li Ihe Spectator, in an article less
h alarming, favors either the allied
; troops re-embarking or taking up a
l' I position on the plain around Salonlki
nil where they could remain snug under
n I the protection of the guns of the fleet

the Greek frontier in Serbia, Friday
morning. The force includes two di
visions." London, Dec 10, 10:15 p. m.Tho
Anglo-French forces have commenced
a general retirement from Southern
Serbia and It i suggested that their
destination Is the region of Saloniki.
This retirement was necessitated, not
only by tho superior forces which the
Bulgarians and Germans opposed to
the allies, hut to a threat of an out
flanking movement from PetrovoU,
where the Bulgarians have arrived,
and also to danger to their lino of
communication from Bulgarian irreg
ulars who had crossed tho Grcok
frontier.
Both the British and the French
forces who are well supplied with ar
tillery and machine guns, engaged in
a four-day battle in which they in
flicted heavy losses on the Bulgar
ians who fought with desperation and
the greatest courage. Attack after at
tack was repulsed but the Bulgarians
still came on and each evening the
allies fell back to new positions where
events of the day before were re
peated. Will Germans Follow?
The question now arises whether
the Bulgarians and Germans will fol
low tho allies across the Greek fron
tier and what attitude the Greek gov
ernment will adopt. King Constan
tine has promised to use his army to
protect the retiring force if they un
dertake to re-embark and has shown
his good faith by preventing Bulgar
ian raiding bands from destroying the
allies' communications, but it is doubt
ful whether tho allies will agree to
evacuate Saloniki, which under the
guns of their ships would provide a
good defensive position and a base
from which other operations could be
undertaken. It is on this point that
negotiations between Greece and the
culente allies is now proceeding and
the feeling here, at Paris and Rome
is gaining in the following paragraph
printed in largo type by the Evening
Star:
"The moment is approaching when
.the Greek government must decide.
The allies, now more than ever be
fore require freedom of movement
at Saloniki."

COAST DEFENSE
GUNS ON WHEELS
New York, Dec. 10. Gigantic guns
mounted on motor trucks or railway
cars will probably be added to the
country's coast defense system as a
lesult of experiments now being made
by army ordnance experts. It was
learned today that a scheme is being
worked out contemplating the estab
lishment of mobile batteries to pro
tect stretches of coast line not com
manded by tho permanent fortifica
tions built or to be recommended.
Purt of the $S0,000,000 expenditure for
coast defenses included in the admin
istration program may be devoted to
this work.
The European war has demon
strated that high-power guns can be
used as mobile weapons, such guns
as the German 42-centimeter howitzer
having revolutionized land warfare by
the easy reduction of forts believed
Impregnable. It is proposed to adapt
this lesson to American coast defense
by linking up permanent works with
well ballasted wagon roads or rail
ways paralleling the coast line so
that the heavy guns could be rushed
to any threatened point not protected
by the present harbor defensee.

RECRUITING IN
GREAT BRITAIN
Men Rushing to Enlist to
Avoid the Stigma of
Conscription.
London, Dec. 11, 1:30 a. m. The
last day of the trial period for the
Earl of Derby's recruiting plan open
ed with reports from all parts of Lon
don to tho effect that there was no
diminution, but rather an increase,
In recruiting, and all officers in
charge reported excellent progress.
Although single men are coming for
ward in better proportions, married
applicants seemed to predominate In
many centers. Nearly all of the re
cruiting stations kept open all night
London, Dec. 10, 9 35 p. m. The
rush of "last minute men" who de
sire to escape tho stigma of being
forced to Join the colors, if conscrip
tion should be adopted, continued to
day, the last day, but one of tho trial
period for tho Earl of Derby's recruit
ing plan. Lines formed at the re
cruiting stations as early as 5 o'clock
this morning and remained there all
day.
Announcement that there would be
no extension of the time limit for tho
test of tho volunteer system appar
ently convinced many men of military
fitness that the Earl of Derby was in
earnest and caused them to flock to
the stations. The scenes at tho re
cruiting bureaus are entirely differ
ent from those during Secretary
Kitchener's regime. It is not a case
of Inducing men to enlist as a result
of appeals made by recruiting ser
geants,' but rather of handling the
applicants, who wait patiently in long
lines, three or four abreast in the
cold, blustery weather. At Trafal
gar square only a small crowd of
idlers stood around the base of the
monument to hear the fervid appeals
on behalf of king and country made
by speakers.

PRESIDENT IS
WELL RECEIVED
Columbus, O., Dec. 10 President
Wilson today expressed the opinion
that there will be no "patched up
peace" following tho European war.
In a comprehensive and forceful ad
dress before the Columbus chamber
of commerce, he urged American busi
ness men to mobilize their resources
so the United States might bo pre
pared to play a more important part
in the world's affairs, and bring about
Justice after the present war.
The president spent eighteen hours
in Columbus during which he Was ac
tive every minute. His reception was
enthusiastic and pleased him greatly.
In addition to the chamber of com
merce speech, he delivered an ad
dress tonight before the commission
on country and church life of tho fed
eral council of the Church of Christ
of America, shook hands with more
than 7,000 people at a reception in
the rotunda of the state capltol, spoke
briefly to a large crowd from the
steps of the capltol and took a long
walk about the streets of Columbus.
The entire city and many people from
surrounding towns greeted him.
Defends Mexican Policy.
In the chamber of commerce ad
dress the president defended his Mex
ican policy, and said as long as he
was president' nobody should "butt
in" to alter the Mexicans' government
for them; urged business men to pay
more attention to foreign commerce
and bo more self-reliant; demanded
the restoration of the American mer
chant marine; praised the new bank
ing and currency law; and touched
on the attitude of the United States
toward the European war.
"When the present great conflict
in Europe is over, the world is going
to wear a different aspect," Mr. Wil
son declared. "I do not believe" there
is going to be any patched up peace.
I believe that thought ful men of ev
ery country and of great sort will
insist that when we get peace again
we shall have guarantees that It will
remain, and that the instrumentali
ties of justlco shall be exalted above
the instrumentalities of force.

Grave Consequences Expected
If Great Britain Prohibits
Importations of Coal.
London, Dec. 10, 11 a. m. Reuter's

merce of Greece, several steamship

published a list of articles liable to
seizure at sea and submission to
prize court unless accompanied by
consular certificates establishing the
fxt that they have not come from

Mil FARMERS
10 HI TO BM1
Brigham City, Dec. 10. The sugar
beet growers of Wlllard Tiave finally
decided to support the Utah-Idaho Su
gar company, which is to erect a new
factory on the east side of Bear river
during the year 1916. For a time
the Willard farmers held out in fa
vor of the Amalgamated Sugar com
pany of Ogden, owing to that company
claiming Wlllard as Its territory.
Officers of tho Amalgamated com
pany met with the fanners of Willard
during the week and promised to
erect proper facilities for loading
beets, but despite this offer the beet
growers of Willard appointed a com
mittee to procure contracts for the
Utah-Idaho company. This means
that the Amalgamated company has
been turned down by the Willard
farmers, and that hereafter the Og
den company will receive no more
beets from Boxelder county.
