New York, Dec. 21.-The situation in Russia continues obscure, although in eager reports indicate that the Bol- sheviki movement is losing ground in the face of the opposition by the I]kranians and the followers of Gen eral Kaledines. The Bolsheviki com missioners are said to have declined to accept the negative reply of the Ukranian Rada to the Bolsheviki de mand that the Ukranians cease aid ing the Kaledines forces and give the Rada an opportunity to reconsider its action.
 As indicating that the Rada has finally declined to give heed to the dictates of the Bolsheviki is a report that a definite alliance has been form ed between Kaledines followers and the Ukranians.

SHARPE DEFENDS
 HIS DEPARTMENT
Quartermaster General Tells Senate Probers of Anticipat- ing War - Admits Clothes Were Short.

Washington, Dee. 21.-Clothing, shoes and food supplies for the Amer ican army were investigated today by the Senate military committee, turn ing its general inquiry into war prep arations to the quartermaster gener- al's department. It was shown that millions of dollars were spent just be- fore the United States entered the war to provide for the great army since raised.
 Major General Sharpe, quartermas- ter general, now a member of the new War Council, and soon to turn his of fee over to Major General Goethals, was before the committee all day and for an hour of the time answered con- fidental questions behind closed doors He was closely examined, especially regarding the admitted shortage of overcoats, which, he said, was due principally to late deliveries of large orders.
 Except for overcoats and a few other winter garments, of which, he said, complete stocks would be in camp by December 31, the general de- clared there is no clothing shortage.
 Shoes also, General Sharpe said, have been provided in ample quanti- ties per capita, but the average draft ed man of the National Army has proved to be so much larger physi- cally than the regulars and guards men with whom the department has had to deal in the past, that many of the shoes and overcoats, as we'll have proved useless. Manufacture of the smaller sizes has been stopped, but the situation resulted in some hard ships for the drafted soldier before it could be corrected.
 Of food, General Sharpe said, and the committeeman assented, it had been ample and of fine quality. No complaints regarding food, he said, had been received.

TO RECRUIT FOR
AVIATION BRANCH
Continued From First Page.)

the aviation service III other cities.
This particular branch has been pre-
ferred by the younger men because
of the possibilities it will doubtless
offer after the war is over. The men
who take the training now will come
out experienced aviators and with a
training that could not be duplicated
for less than $4,000 at a private
school. 1t is believed that after the
war great air fleets will be organ
lied to patrol the coasts and our
northern and southern borders. This
will give many of the aviators an
opportunity to remain in the service
that other men will not have. Many
of the men enlisting now will be
commissioned before the end of the
war.
Severe Physical Test
It is admitted. however, by re-
cruiting officers that only the best
can qualify as operators. Before a
man is accepted as an operator he
must undergo a severe physical test
to show that he will never develop
