|Think Salonica is
the Center of War
Correspondents Believe Olympian
Conflict Will End at Feet
of Olympus.
By WILLIAM G. SHEPHERD
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
SALONICA, Dec. 10.—(Special to
Gateway)—Here’s the World War
news center. At last the stormy little
Balkans have come into the world’s
eye.
Correspondents from all corners of
what used to be civilization flock here
to be near the great German rush 400
miles north of us.
There are other lesser correspond
ents hanging around the hotels of
Salonica, mostly queerly dressed
chaps with queer habits and man
! ners, newspaper men from European
; countries who have spent their lives
in the Balkans trying to get the busy
world interested in their little affairs;
1 men who have lived in queer Balkan
I cities and have dashed madly to the
: Balkan telegraph offices in times past
' with news items which they them
selves thought tremendously import
ant but which were honored with tiny
( headlines in the newspapers of the
world.
(
These Balkan-fan journalists know
j that some day the Balkans would ex
I plode. The day has come, The cx
j plosion has occurred.
At last the feet of European armies
! are pounding the Balkan highways;
European cannon, machine guns and
! rifles sound through the Balkan hills

and European spates eat trenches in
the Balkan soil.
In the Olympus Palace hotel, on the
water front, gathered around the tiny
tables in the cafes, are the officers of
the British, French, Russian and
Greek armies, a melange of color and
language. And these Balkan journal
ists—English, French and Italian—
chatter gaily, wisely of the great day
i which has come at last.
Salonica harbor is filled with great
boats, warships, torpedo boats, hos
pital ships, and two or three boats
i which have huge American flags
painted on their sides and which are
making small fortunes for their own
ers in running the submarine gaun
let with supplies for the Balkan allies.
That busy harbor of itself is enough
to delight the soul of the Balkan
journalist. But last evening, just at
sundown, came the climax of his ex
citement. An aeroplane was soaring
over the bay of Salonica. Behind it,
across the harbor, loomed Mount
Olympus, where the old Greek gods
used to live and cut their capers.
Just to see an aeroplane with
Olympus, which has been peaceful
and <|uiet ever since the gods d;ed, as
a background, was enough to prove
to the Balkan experts that the great
day really had come at last.
To top it off, the engine of the j
aeroplane weakened in its stroke, the
machine came nearer and nearer to
the water. It had wheels intead of
1 boats beneath its planes and when its
momentum was gone and it came to j
the surface of the bay, it dug its nose,
fifteen or twenty feet into the water, J
pilot and all, and then stood on end
with its tail in the air.
Here was a catastrophe of the World
War, right at the foot of Olympus.
The Balkan experts watched the
aviators come to the surface, climb in
to the half sunken planes and wait for
' three tug boats in the harbor to rush
i to the rescue.
| Then they went back to the
j Olympus Palace cafe where the
; French old timers in the Balkans or
dered absinthe—which one cannot buy
in Paris—anti the others ordered
i whiskey and soda, over which they
treshed out the whole problem of the
value of aeroplanes in Balkan war
fare, happy at last to be able to say:
“The eyes of the world are not on
the French f *ont or on the Russian
front. They are on the Balkans, as I j
have always said they would be; and
here the World War will be threshed |
out.”
