Washington.-W. r. Farley and
Hywel Davies, conciliators sent into
Colorado by President Wilson in an
effort to bring peace between the
warringoperators and employees of the
coal region, will make a personal re-
port of progress to Secretary Wilson
Of the Labor Department.
Farley has been in the Colorado
strike zone continuously, since Presi-
dent Wilson urged the acceptance of
both sides of the tentative basis for
adjustment of the strike drawn up
by the Cancellation Commission.
The employees have accepted the
plan, but the operators have rejected
it, and Farley has been endeavoring
to persuade them to change their at
titude.
Davis has not been in Colorado for
some weeks.
At Secretary Wilson's office it was
said the commissioners might have
some new light to throw on the Colo
RADIO situation. but that no inkling of
it had yet reached here.
They are coming to report in person
the efforts they have made. and to re-
ceive additional suggestion or instruc-
tions the secretary may care to give.

To this the Russian report adds
that the town of Warta, OH the
Warthe river in Poland, has been
occupied and that German col

CzenstOchowa, which is very near
the Russian frontier.
Allies Hold Line Firmly.
At the end Of two weeks OF contin-
nous fighting the Allies line from the
