BALKAN SITUATION DIS
CUSSED AT CONVOCATION
Or. Jones Describe Conflicts in This
Region
Professor Jones, head of the depart
ment of English History, addressed the
students at convocation Tuesday on
the Balkan question. The speaker
pointed out how the conflicting inter
ests of various nations centered in this
section, making this group of states
"the nightmare of Europe."
Besides the original conflict in this
region between the Christian Slav,
Bulgar, and Greek and the Mohamme
dan Turk, there has more lately arisen
conflicts between the interests of
Russia, Austria, Great Britain and
Germany in the region. Russia has a
sympathetic interest In the Balkan
peoples because of kindred race and
religion. She has also a strong ma
terial interest, having for centuries
tried to acquire a free port in the
Mediterranean. Austria's interest in
the region is due to her fear of the
rise of another great Slav power which
would threaten the integrity of the
empire. Great Britain is interested be
cause the region lies in the path of
her trade route to India. Germany
seeks commercial expansion toward
the southeast. These crossings of na
tional interests in the Balkans were
partly, at least, responsible for bring
ing on the war.
The lecture will be continued next
week. The attendance at Monday's
Convocation was unusually large and
indicated the general interest which
this subject creates.
