CHOLM PROVINCE
NOT FOR UKRAINE,
AUSTRIA LEARNS
Mixed Commission Will De-
eide Its Fate on Race
Principles

Basel, Switzerland, Feb. 2O.-Dr.
Won Seydler, the Austrian premier,
has announced to the Reichsrath
representative that the Ukraine Rada
and the Austro-Hungari rian govern
ment is said to nave been applauded
plemcnting the Ukraine peace treaty
by which the province of Cholm will
not revert to the Ukraine republic.
A mixed commission will be appoint
ed to decide it's fate on race prin-
ciples and with regard to the wishes
of the population. The announce
ment is sal dto have been applauded
heartily.
Much feeling has been aroused
among the Poles through the fact
that the old province of Cholm, a
part of Poland, had been given to
the Ukraine by the peace treaty
signed at Brest-Litovsk. Tho attitude
of Polish deputies in the Austrian
parliament also threatened the sta
bility of the Won Seydler government,
whose resignation was refused by
Emperor Charles, February 8. Strikes
of protest against the ceding OF
Cholm have been held in both Rus
sian and Austrian Polish cities.
Article of the treaty of peace
with the Ukraine gives the frontier
of the new country as including
Cholm. 1t adds. however, that the
frontier will be fixed in detail by
mixed commission according to eth
biographical conditions and with
regard to the desires of the popula-
ton. The population of Cholm is
made up of various races and form
erly was included in Poland. A great
part of it, however, was included in
Great Russia by the Russian gov
ernment when it realigned the from
tiers of Poland.

Sheriff Davis to get them into the
National Army.
Ignore Draft Call
Yoder was called to go to Camp
Meade way back last summer, but
refused to show up, and likewise
refused to show up on repeated calls
for service. Draft officials did not
press him because he had an appeal
as conscientious objector on reli-
gious grounds under consideration
at the time. The appeal was over
ruled, with the acquiescence that
he might go as noncombatant to
serve behind the lines.
But" thought Yoder, that doesn't
remove the contamination of the sim
full buttons" ,"and promptly hied him
self out of sight of Sheriff Davis
buttoned up personality when that
official put in an appearance at his
home in the Valley February with
papers for his arrest. The sheriff
thinks he was in hiding in a neigh
bor's house, where men use hooks
and eyes and don't endanger their
souls with the communicating buttons.
Retreats Before Buttons
Now Yoder has not put in an ap-
rearance since that day he retseated
before the onslaught of the buttons
on Sheriff Davis overcoat. 1t is
thought that he might have retreat
ed to the west, where members of
the Buttonless Order of Amishmen
wend their ways daily in a well or
dered world of hooks and eyes.
Stultzfus is thought to have taken
the same course as Yoder, rather
than go to Meade, where the insult
ing buttons are forced upon help
less conscripts. His course of action
from the time he was drafted has
been much the same as Yoder's, eX-
cept that he appeared for eXamina-
ton when he was first called, and
informed the officials that he would
not return the next day to join the
members of his quota.
$50 Reward offered
Draft officials of Mifflin county
are anxious to apprehend the two
slackers, as it is said that all the
registrants of ATifflin county are
growing dissatisfied at seeing mem
bers of their quotas going off to
camp, while the two dodgers remain
secure behind their hook and eye
fronts. The Adjutant Generals De-
partment has been notified and the
Provost Generals Department at
Washington, has also been notified.
When the men are caught their ap-
Prehender will receive $50 reward
from the draft board at Lewistown,
and the Amishes will be court mar
tailed as deserters by a heather ar
ray of buttons and buttonholes.
Draft officials at Lewistown say
some Amishmen have been sent to
Camp Meade, and while they have
gone without protest, reports from
Meade say they make poor soldiers
and skulk in corners, nervously fling
ering the buttons on their uniforms
that every minute, they think, are
sending their souls nearer to de-
struction.

before the House when his admin
istration has been under attack. His
speech was a detailed but guarded
recital of the proposals by which
the four powers at Versailles had
arrived at the principles of their
latest form of cooperation. There
were no oratorical passages except
a few sentences at the close when
Premier Lloyd George appealed to
the country to get together in the
face of a common danger.
Deep Concern Felt
Mr.. Asquith asserted the country
regarded with deep concern the re-
cent enforced retirement of the gov
ernments chief naval and military
advisers. Admiral Jellico and Cen
eral Robertson. The public and
their own professions had the utmost
confidence in these men. Mr.. As
quith added that the country had
noted that both retirements were
paign. The public questioned wheth-
er these losses were compensated by
the retention of the Earl of Derby
in the war ministry and the appoint
ment as director of foreign press
Misunderstanding to Viscount
although he did not
mention his name-one whose news
papers had conducted the press cam
paign.
There was a little alteration be-
tween the two Premiers over the
question of General Robertson's s
failure to approve the Versailles
plan. Finally, Mr.. Asquith said he
did not quarrel in the least with the
decisions of the Versailles council in
respect to its functions. He took the
view that the question at issue was
n domestic matter and supported
the view that the military represent
ative at Versailles should be a repre-
sentative of the chief of the general
staff.

Sunbury, Pa, Jan. 20.-A peculiar
suit for damages was brought in the
northumberland county common
pleas court yesterday. David o. Phil
lips, Sunbury school director. who
held a retail liquor license for the
Windsor hotel here, was refused a

less CT business and capital invested

signed on the 1st of February, 1915,
and that it was then and for long
time prior to that a licensed hotel
and had large and lucrative trade
by the terms of the lease. he says,
the defendant agreed to do all neces-
sary painting, papering and repair
ing of the premises, so as to make
them habitable and comfortable at
their earliest convenience.
