ALLIES CHANGING MAPS
INDEPENDENT REPUBLIC SET
UP IN ALBANIA.
R0yalist Greeks Onsted From the Al,
banian Provinces After De-
mand on the French.
(By Associated Press)

With the Entente Armies in Salon
Xxi, June 2.-Comparatively few per-
sons know that the process Of re-
making the map Of Europe already
has been begun by the Entente AL
lies in the region that has been the
cbsession and the enigma of the for
cign offices Of Europe for the last
five years-Albania.
On December y last, the capital of
o free and independent Albanian re-
public was set up at koritza, and this
embryo state-for its territory ex-
tends at present only to the district
of which Koritz is the chief town
possesses all the machinery of mod
ern government--a ruling council,
an army, 600 strong, postage stamps,
raper money, national flag, foreign
alliances and even a budget that coy
.Crs expenditure.
When the French patrols first
reached Koritza and established a
detachment there to protect the left
flank of the Entente Balkan front
they soon found that the hostility o.
tie local Albanians was not so mcuh
love Of the Austrians as resentment
Of any fresh incursions of foreigners
into their country. BY ousting the
royalist Greeks and allowing the
proclamation of the independence Of
Albania, with Koritza as the capi-
tai, the French converted enemies into
lilies.

one construction train got through
20 Kola Bay. Then a thaw came
and the train could not get back
There was no track. Great stretches
of rails had disappeared.
The Austrians were set to woll;
again, better supervised this time
and they had at least a semblancc
ct roadbed when the calls met south
of Kola. But the ballast had been
laid again by torchlieht and when q
thaw came much of it slumped be-
meath the tracks. After that the
Russians took leaf from the his
tory of the great American transcon-
tinental railways.
They herded the Austrians back to
the prison camps and brought across
the Trans-Siberian railways thousands
of Chinese coolies and Mongols, to
take their places.
By this time so much indignation
over the CHASTITY failures on the rail
way had arisen that the Russians were
stirred out Of their sloth. They soon
got down to hardpan and the railroad
went through to stay.

Construction of Road, Which
Is of Much Importance.

Petrograd, June 2.--One of the most
fascinating rOmances cf railroad en-
gineering is the building of the great
Hurmar Railroad, from Petrograd to
Kola Bay, Russia's ice-free port. Builc
hy torchlist in the darkness sof Arctic
winter, parts of it were three times
lost when warm winds turned the
frozen tundras on which it was laid
into bottomless morasses of mud and
water.
The railway is $50 miles long, from
Kola to Petrograd, and part of it is
a three-track line. The Russians
learned from the paralysis of the
1rans-Siberian line that one-track
line is almost useless when called on
for express service. Two tracks are
used for loaded cars going away from
Kola. The third track is for empties
coming back.
Three races-Russians, Austrians
and Mongols-helped to build the line
Hundreds, if not thousands, died from
cold, hunger and disease, but now the
line is through to tsay, and it's three
tracks are taking every day 200 car
loads from the mountains of supplies
that have accumulated whihc the road
was in process of construction.
First Russians were employed as
railroad builder. They had the cas-
lest part of the line to build, before
it reached the tundras. Then they
wer all called away to the front mad
Austrian prisoners were sent to take
their places.
The prisoners were guarded by reg
iments of half-wild Tartars and Mon
coils. Neither the Austrians nor
their guards knew anything about
hallway building, and there were SO
few experts in the region that it was
impossible for them to oversee the
work properly. The Austrians laid

TEACHERS NOT PREACHERS.
London School Teachers Against Use
Of Clergymen to Fill Vacancies.

Correspondence of Associated Press
London, June 2.-School teachers il
London and other parts of England
through their respective organiza
tions, have protested against the de
cision of the municipal authorities t
employ clergymen and non-conform
!st ministers as teachers in the Gle
nentary schools.
AS preliminary to the decision
of the authorities, the board of edu
cation a few months ago cancelle,
the regulation which prohibited tn
employment of clergy and minister,
en- the staffs of schools. The change
is to be made for the period of tn,
war as a means, it is said, of rem.
edying the serious shortage of teach
ers.
The protest of the teachers is not
based on economic or professional
reasons, but is made against the
clergy and ministers of military age
The teachers have called the ministers
and clergy professional conscientious
directors against military service"
