Although this less vigorous an at titude of the Entente is viewed in the West with disfavor, reports from Saloniki indicated that King Con stantine regards the present situation as the result of a misunderstanding and that it is easily remediable. It Is learned that the king assured Lord Kitchener that he never consid ered disarming or interning, the Al lied troops taking refuge on Greek soil. Greece is said to be ready to assure the Allies that the purpose of main taining troops in Macedonia is a nec essity of self-preservation In the event the Allies abandon the Balkan\ex- peditlon. i Kitchener, it is reported, recently informed the Greek officials that Eng land will have four million in the field by next March and be in position to arm and provision six million Rus sians. Confusing reports from the Balkan fighting continue. The Germans claim progress and the capture of thousands of Serbs and many guns. The Serbians report that the Bul garians are beaten in the region of Monastir and that Serbs have recap tured the old Veles-Prilep line. A dispatch from Chiasse, forward ed here from Zurich, declares that Italian troops have landed in Al bania. Austria also reports the massing of a big army in Adriatic ports. Aside from a small German offen sive in Galicia and artillery duels in the west no important action is reported from other fronts. ■ ! /■ TH WOMAN’S HASS MEETING Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 23.—The house of representatives this morning agreed to the senate’s increase of $10,000 per year for the University of Georgia and agreed to the senate’s increase of $20,000 per year for the Georgia School of Technology. Thfc general appropriation bill pass ed by the house carried $50,000 per year to the University of Georgia, which is $2,000 per year less than It now receives. The senate raised It to $60,000. The bill passed by the house carried $80,000 per year to Tech, which is $10,000 per year less than It now receives. The senate raised it to $100,000. To this the house agrees also. The house first refused to agree to the rnise for Georgia, but when Tech, coming further down on the list, was agreed to. the house reconsidered its action and agreed to the University’s raise as a matter of fairness. The house also agreed to the sen ate’s increase of $50,000 per year in the common school appropriation, which increase makes it $2,700,000 per year, or an increase of $150,000 per year over the present appropria tion. The house also agreed to the sen ate's increase of $10,000 per year for the State Normal school, making the appropriation $57,500 instead of $47,- 500. $2,500 increase for the summer school for teachers at Athens, mak ing total of $7,500. Adjourned Till Today. Disagreement now stands only on three items: The prison department at $110,000 an increase of $10,000; military at $40,000, increased from $25,000 and the old soldiers home which was increased $5,000; all In creases are original house committee figures. The house adjourned until 10 o’clock tomorrow, defeating a motion to adjourn until Friday, and leaving the senate in recess. ROBERT WARWICK AT ELITE TODAY The appearance of Robert Warwick in a feature p’ay always brings de light to the film fans.iknd that he is a very versatile artist,'is demonstrat ed in his latest success “The Flash, of an Emerald,’’ the attraction at the Elite today. As a gentleman crook, and society vulture, preying on his friends he adds a new character to his repertoire, as Lucius Waldeck, a polished and unscrupulous man of af fairs who stops at nothing to gain his ends. A good “crook” story is always popular, and “The Flash of an Em erald’ is an exceptionally good one, and with such a star as Robert War wick in the leading role, is sure to please all who see it at the Elite to day.

One witness, Gustave Kulken- kampff, a German importer, swore that Captain Boy-Ed personallly di rected the expenditure of approxi mately $7)50,000 which, unsolicited and unexpected, had been deposited to the witness’ credit in a New York bank in September, 1914.
