London, Nov. IC.-With increasing
gravity, from the allies standpoint, of
fae military situation in Serbia, the
attitude of Greece coward the entente
armies has become a matter of deop
-est concern ?andTevery effort is being
made to induce Greece to define "her
intentions- ? . --.-.<

nothing short ! of'a positive guarantee
of th? safety ' the French, . BritisV. and
Serbian troops, should they have to
retire Into Greece will satisfy France
and Great Britain, whose ministers
are strongly supported by the Rus
sian and Italian representatives.
The presence of Sari Kitchener in
tho Aegean sea and of Denys Cbohin,
member of the French cabinet,-' at
Athens, is hoped will clear up the
situation.
The time, however, is short, for "tba
Bulgarians have been strongly rein
forced, both in central and southern
Serbia and, besides, attempting a
flanking movement against-'the " Ser
bians nt B?buna Pass, they are threat
