Show SPANISH FORK, UTAH If BUZZARD TIES UP SANTA CLAUS ALMOST CAUGHT a Friend Tl THE GREEK GOVERNMENT PRO VICES CLEAR ROAD TO FALL BACK ON 8ALONIKI. SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES GO ON RECORD ON THE ARMY AND NAVY PLAN. $om Doubt Whether the Turk and Bulgara Will Enter Greece, But Teutons May Crois Border In ' Pursuit of Allied Forcee, In London. The British and French troops have successfully carried out their retirement from Serbia across the Greek frontier, and, by an ar rangement with the Greek govern uent, a clear road has bten left for them to fall back on Salonlkl, which Is being organized as a base. The German official report of Mon day claims that approximately two English divisions were annihilated" during the retirement, but this is con aldered here an exaggeration. Accounts from Athens and Salonlkl say the retreat was carried out In an or derly manner and without heavy losses. By the destruction of railway bridges and roads, and by stubborn rearguard actions, In one of which two companies of the Ennlskll ten regiment sacrificed themselves to save their comrades, the Bulgarians were kept at a falrly safe distance. The question now arises whether the Bulgarians and AustnKSermans Intend to follow the British and French troops into Greece, and what action the Greek government will take should they do so. The impres-slogained from dispatches emanating In Athens Is that neither the Bui garlans nor the Turks, who also are ' reported to have arrived near the frontier, would he allowed in Greece, and that, therefore, If It has been decided to follow the entente allies the task will be undertaken by Austrians and Germans. de However, with the railway stroyed, it may be some days befoie Greece Is called upon to take action, and by that time the forces should be safe In the defense of Salonlkl and under the guns of their ships.
