Victims of latest Balkan trouble. This picture shows a typical group of thousands of Albanian war victims who were interred in Montenegro during a recent Balkan squabble. The American officer is Lieut. Col. H.J. Fairclough, head of the American Red Cross Commission to Montenegro and former professor at Leland Stanford University in California. When these homeless, miserable women and children swarmed through the lines at the Serbian-Montenegro frontier they were filthy, vermin-ridden and frenzied with starvation and suffering. They were given a daily ration of American food and have since been returned to their own country by Red Cross workers co-operating with the Albanian refugee committee
