KOVACS GIRL STILL
AMONG THE MISSING

Mr.. and Mrs. Isadore Goldman are
today mourning the loss of jewelry
and other valuables valued at about
$1,000 which disappeared from their
home yesterday about the same time
Mary Kovacs, engaged as a servant,
also disappeared. It is their belief
the girl and the jewe1ry went togeth-
er, and they informed the police who
are working on that theory. No trace
of the girl has been found.
Mary was engaged laF Thursday as
a servant by Mrs. Goldman from an
employment agency. She claimed to
be a stranger in the city. Yester-
day she was left at home with a
daughter Of the Goldmans. about IL
years old, who is i'll. About 8 o'clock,
the daughter says, Mary came and
asked the way to drug store, said she
was going out for a few minutes, and
would bring back some ice cream. She
has not been seen since. When the
family returned they found the Jew
elry missing.

BOLSHEVIKI SAY
PROLETARIAT is
SUPPORTING IT

Washington, March 1S-The text of
the resolution adopted by the central
executive committee of the all-Rus-
sian congress of sovfcts in answer to
President Wilson's recent message to
the Russian people, already trans
mitted in press cables, reached the
State Department today from the
American consul In Moscow, together
with a brief summary of a speech by
the chairman of the congress in re-
gard to it.
The chairman, NJ Sverdloff. express
ed the belief that the proletariat and
as well as Of America and Australia
were with the Bolshevik.
The chairman is reported to have
said:
Comrades, I shall have difficulty IN
reading all the kilograms received
here. We have received a vast num-
Der. One telegram stands out among
them which shall submit to your at
tention. 1t is the telegram from Pres
ident Wilson
Comrades, allow me, In the name
belief that the wide masses of the
pro1etariat and the semi-proletariat OF
western Europe, as well as of America
and Australia, are with US with all
their hearts Allow me t oexpress my
firm belief that these masses are
watching with the closest attention the
struggle which we are carrying on
here in Russia and will permit my
self to submit to your attention the
resolution which was adopted by the
presiding body of the central executive
committee in answer to President Will
sons address to the congress"
The chairman read the resolution
and concluded:
Comrades, allow me to consider
this applause a sufficient answer that
you all join this resolution"

flee to go over the situation.
The prospects Of coal enough for
domestic consumption at least for sew
era1 days are bright according to Mr..
Kirk. About 5000 tons of hard coal
arrived by water this morning and
many cars are now on the road, he
said. The local office was in COM

"At Dawn on March IL after a
preliminary bombardment lasting
three quarters of an hour we drove a
highly successful raid against Ger

trated the German line to depth of
800 yards. The enemy was driven off
after a hand to hand fight, whereupon
our contingent returned TO our lines.

lean troops, acting in cooperation
with small French detachments, raid
ed German trenches. Two of these
operations were carried out stimuli
taneousIy, each on a frontage of some
500 yards. After prolonged bonn
bardment the attacking units were
able to reach their detectives. Few
of the enemy were found in the first
line trenches and the attackers swept
forward into the German second line.
Our men remained for nearly an hour
in the German positions and retired
after inflicting much damage and
capturing considerable quantities of
material.
There has been a decided increase
in sniping owing to more favorable
weather conditions
1--WE kept up a vigorous lombard
ment on the rear areas opposite our
Toul sector.
"Near the Swiss border where an
other detachment of our men are in
the trenches, hostile bombardments
were frequent.
'HThe arrival of our secretary of war
in France is noted. During the last
week the secretary has had interviews
with the leading French authorities
and is about to undertake a careful
inspection of our schools, training
areas, rest camps, as well as those
sectors of the front where our forces
are in action.
