...Little Tsar Boris sat in his yellow plaster palace at Sofia and waited. Last week came his chance. Scenting a swing in his favor he had refused fortnight ago to dismiss a number of officers as demanded by War Minister General Zlateff, presumably at the suggestion of the Veltcheff-Gueorguieff dictatorship.
