Dunkirk, France, March 25.-Still vigorously pushing her relief work close to the battle lines in Flanders, Maxine Eliott reports finding the Bel gian refugees "stulied like sardines" in any Place that 'has a roof.

London; April 6.--The Daily News (editorial, discussing the Serbo-Bul- (garian affair, says : "It is no accident that this ipei- dent should take place simultaneous: ly with the rather bitter controversy with the present Greek premier, Gou- naris, and his predecessor, Venizelos, as to the proper policy for Greece to adopt towards Bulgaria. If Ser- bia has siened in taking by force Macedonian territory, unquestionably Bulgarian in character, the Greeks have also committed the same sin. They are both suffering for it now. Serbia, instead of having the help of a group of Balkan Allies' in r struggle with Austria, finds herself alone, 'and in the hour of most wr- gent need is in danger of being at- tacked in ,the rear. (reece is pay- ing for taking a few hundred square miles more than her due by being check-mated in "far more ambitious schemes of expansion. The Allies, who perwitted this unjust division of Macedonia, are also learning that political offenses sometimes avenge themselves. The paper proceeds to urge that Bulgarian claims be satisfied. Hither. to. it says, the diplomacy of the Al- lies towards the question seems to Have lacked firmness and clearness, but the blow now struck at the Salonica Railway by the Bulgarian irregulars ought to bring them to a decision.
