IF BALKANS FALL TO ALLIES
GERMANY, CANNOT SURVIVE'
Hindenburg to Make Desperate Effort to Shatter the Russian
and Roumanian Verces.
A despatch from Acqui, Italy, says:
Field Marshal von Hindenburg's ap-
pointment as chief of the German
general staffsuggests a desperate en-
deavor to shatter the Russian and
Roumanian forces.
The Hungarian Government re-
gards these organizations with fear
and trembling. The Hungarian press'
considers the coming struggle in
that quarter decisive for the isolation
of the Germans from their Eastren
allies and for a Russian invasion of
the Hungarian plain. They make it
clear that the fullest apprehension
prevails and that all hope has vanish-
ed.
The Hungarian journal Vilag says:
"Germany can face an economic
war only so long as she possesses the
Berlin -Bagdad railway. If Transyl-
vania is lost, and if the Balkans fall
into the hands of her enemies, 'Ger-
many cannot survive the loss."
