EN SQUIER SOON TO BE WED | | His Views on Interesting Question NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, T0 SAVE SERBIA, WILL BE NO SERBY Rustrian Deputy Makes Known London, Sept. —(Correspond- ence of the Associated Press).—The situation in Serbia today is summed up in a communication received by the British Socialist Party from the executive committee of the Serbian Socialists. It says: “The Serbian population in the por- tions of our country occupied by Aus- tria-Hungary is now 2,218,000, ac- cording to official census figures pub- lished in the Official Journal at Bel- grade. The population normally would have been 3,170,000. There is, therefore a reduction of 952,000, or 28 per cent. The male population has been reduced by 38 per cent. There are now in Serbia 144 women to 100 men. T —————— DON'T BE BILIOUS, HEADACHY, SICK OR CONSTIPATED Enjoy life!

Among these 30,000, there were 8,000 women and young girls delivered over to the Turks. Of these a great num- ber committed suicide by throwing themselves out of the trains convey- ing them to Asia Minor. “The deaths among war prisoners and those interned are put at from 60,000 to 80,000. After the retreat from Serbia and the reconstitution of the Serbian army, about 20 per cent. died at Corfu. Our losses on the Sa- the Austrian cent. of the Serbian forces which have taken part in the operations of Gen- eral Serrail's armies. “Sixty thousand families in Serbia require succor this winter. They have no means of living except the little that we can send to them. Their sufferings during the approach- ing winter will be very severe.” Stockholm, Sept, 20.—The Swedish steamer Flandria was attacked by a Zeppelin on its latest trip homeward. The first bomb which was dropped narrowly missed the ship. The en- gines were stopped and the crew or- dered into the boats. Four more bombs were dropped dangerously near the vessel. Before all those on board had entered the boats there was a panic, and the captain had to use his revolver to enforce discipline. The ship’'s company, after remain- ing for about two hours in the boats, !, returned to their ship. Several hours later another airship appeared and hovered about the ship for a time, but loniki front have been about 50 per ! departed without doing any harm ‘fliiflflh'iifi!
