London, December 28.-Pres- |ident Wilson made his last pub |lic appearance in London to- day. Officials of the city of London presented him with an address of welcome in the ancient Guildhall, where other famous Americans, including General Grant and former Pres |ident Roosevelt, have been re- |ceived. Afterward he was the guest at a luncheon ill the Egyptian hall of Mansion House, where hover the ghosts |of decades and of civic oratory, and where many Americans have partaken of the famed aldermanic turtle soup.
 The drive from Buckingham palace and return was witnessed by immense crowds. There was plenty of enthusiasm abroad but it hardly reached the same volume as that which attended the Presidents entry into London on Thursday.

POLAND FEARS PEOPLE MAY SOON
 JOIN BOLSHEV|K|
Lack of Food Likely toCause Grave Uprising, Says Of ficial in Plea for Food
 Shipments
Ky Associated Press

Paris, December 26.-Unless Poland receives food supplies and clothing from the allies i'm mediately there is grave danger that the population will join the bolshevist movement and there by menace the stability of the new government, according to Lieut.. Stanislaw Hempel, aide de-carap to Gen. Joseph Pil- sudski, military head of tie Polish government. -s,. Lieutenant Hempel, who is in Paris, has issued an urgent plea through the news papers that the United States rush food to his country. In this plea he declared there were only two or three weeks sup plies left and, while the people thus far had steadfastly refused to accept bol- shevisnl. they might be expected to re- volt unless provided with the necessaries of life.
 Lieutenant Hempel said bolshevsm was the one thing which the new republic now feared. Poland was surrounded by revolutionists, and, having been stripped Of virtually all means of making a live- lihood. naturally promised fertile ground for Russian and German propagandists The Germans denuded Poland not only or foodstuffs, but carried off all horses and 80 per cent of the cattle, so that 1t is impossible to cultivate the land In addition. all wool and cotton were taken and the people are destitute for clothing, which is costing at the rate of 1500 marks for suit principally of cotton.
 The latest official news from Poland was received by Lieutenant Hempel 10 days ago. At that time some 2000 or 5000 recruits were Hooking to the standard of the Polish army daily to augment the 100000 troops General Pilsudski had month ago.
 The army was supplied with rifles and machine guns and proposed to use it's forces along the borders to protect Polish interests The soldiers were absolutely against bolshevism and ready to support the president of the republic to the end.
 T assure you that all that has been said about the Polish army massacreing Jews is false, Lieutenant Hempel de- clared.
 'The Ukrainians when withdrawing from Lemberg massacred 200 Jews and also 5000 Poles. As 49 out of 60 shops in our villages are kept by Jews. 1t was natural they would be the victims of the retiring ukrainians. But the Poles had nothing to do with it."
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-12-29

me berlin newspapers reflect tho apprehension pervading all circles. The Vossische zeitung, for instance, says the six men who sign for the govern ment are no longer the government and 1t calls upon tAe new oseated cen- tTiel seeuncil of soldiers ard workers to assume the responsibllaty.
 The Tageblatt declares it would be fatal to pin hopes to the national as- sembiy as a constituent body or as one which could repair the damage now threatening. The Loka1 Anzeiger believes that the crux of the situation Is to be found in the struggle between the independent socialists and the Spartacus group for control, in order to prevent the meeting of the national assembly. It points to the probability Of repetition of the events of No- vember g, with the result that the radi- calls might constitute a new government dominated by Georg Ledebour and Dr. Karl Liebknecht.
 The Frieheit the organ Of the in- dependent solialists, declares that the position of the cabinet is critical and that It Is not likely to survive in it's present makeup. The Taeglische Rund-, schau says 1t is highly uncertain if Ebert and Scheidemann will be able to save theA situation for themselves.
