LOYAL TO TIL
CORFU, May 11.—Serbia remains
faithful to the cause of the entente
allies despite German intrigue and an
offer of the German government to
conclude peace, declared Premier
Pashitch today in a “declaration of
Serbia’s foreign policy” read at the
opening here of the Serbian parlia
ment.
More than a year ago, Mr. Pas
hitch said, “Germany was beginning
to see the impossibility of defeating
her enemies by military force alone,
and to see that she must have re
course to other means. She then de
cided to make the most energetic use
of clandestine channels to disorgan
ize as speedily as posible the power
and cohesion of her enemy. She car
ried on intrigues, employing different
methods according to the countries
for which she intended them.
“All these intrigues were clothed in
fine language and expresed human
itarian ideals by means of which the
enemy was spreading monarehistic
ideas in republics and republican
ideas in monarchies, recommending
in democratic countries a military re
gime and in autocracies democratic,
republican or anarchistic ideas. All
this had only one object, to provoke
internal disorders and discord be
tween the Allies.
“In all allied countries the effect of
these machinations have been felt,
but nowhere have they succeeded so
well as in Russia. Judging from ef
fects, it is impossible to deny that the
Russian Revolution has been tainted
by German influence and has only
been useful up to the present, to Ger
many.
"Austria-Hungary recently has in
tensified her intrigue and calumnies
against the Serbian people, and
against King Peter and the Serbian
government. She has but one object,
to shake the faith of the allies in Ser
bia, to destroy the national unity, and
by means of our dissensions, to in
sure the conquest of Serbia.
“But our people know Austria-Hun
gary too <well to lend themselves tu
believe these lying words. The Ser
bian people remains faithful. It ha*
given up all that it had and could
give. At present, with the little fore*
that remains to it, it can only stay
faithfully at the side of the allies,
never forgetting that Austria-Hun
gary provoked this war with the oh
ject of destroying Serbia.
“The appearance of America in the I
theatre of war has filled up the gap
caused by the Russian withdrawal,
and the armed forces of our allies are
more considerable than those of the
enemy as regards both men and ma
terial. Their organization has been
improved and there is complete agree
ment on all questions. The Serbian
people can therefore be certain that
its sacrifice will not be in vain and
that its ideals will be realized if it
continues to give in the future tokens
of its military and civic virtues and
if it remains safe, as hitherto, from
intrigues which aim at destroying its
concord and unity in the defense of
the interests of our people.”
ip tracing! USED
FOR SURGICAL DRESSINGS
LOS ANGELES, May 11.—Old map
tracings are ending their career in
that capacity here and are entering
a new lease of life as surgical dress
ings. Somebody discovered, a few
days ago, that there was a scarcity
of linen gauze, and happened to men
tion the fact to Thomas W. Bulpin,
chief engineer of the Los Angeles
railways. Mr. Bulpin and his deputies
checked over the tracings in their of
fice, and found more than sixty pounds
of tracings on linen, which latter
when washed to eliminate starch and
ink yielded 648 square yards of the
finest linen.
All that is necessary, the Red Cross
here said, to make this linen fit for
use, is to wash and sterilize it, and
no finer grade exists than that used
as a foundation for such tracings.
Mr. Bulpin wrote to every architect
and civil engineer in the city, and
suggested that they go over their of
fices and turn in any old tracings to
be salvaged. The Red Cross believes
! that much valuable linen will thus be
made available.
The same plan, applied in other
cities, it was pointed out, would prob
ably bring to the Red Cross thousands
of yards of fine gauze now worse
than useless, as it merely crowds
files or moulds on shelves.
