HOW MUCH IS
EUROPE INFECTED
WITH BOLSHEV|SM?

London Tuesday, Nov. l2.-The
most serious question OF the hour,
in the opinion of some newspapers
here, is how far Europe is injected
with bolshcvism.
Some German newspapers and
some in neutral countries continue
to warn the allies not to push Ger
many too far to the wall lest she be
driven into anarchy. Some English
newspapers consider this as German
propaganda to gain leniency.
The general British view appears
to be summarized in the question
whether the cost of the rehabilita-
ton of Europe should be borne by
the victims OF devastation or by its
authors and in the declaration that
the German armies should be de
prived of all arms in the interests
OF Germany herself, thus making in
ternal fighting less possible when the
armies are repatriatcd
Newspapers in Sweden, Spain,
Holland and even Norway express
apprehension over the spread Of
the red flag movement, The trou-
bes in Switzerland also cause uu-

VICTORY BOYS AND GIRLS
WORKING HARD TO GET
FULL QUOTA FOR COUNTY

Satisfactory progress III the Unit
cd War Work Campaign continues
to be made by the Victory Boys and
Girls. Miss Elise Potteri, city and
county chairman for the Victoria
Girls. reports that splendid work IS
being done in the city. The coun-
try's entire quota is S400. On ac-
count of the schools not opening in
the county. work in these commun-
tiles has been unavoidably delayed
and Miss Potterf is making every
effort to secure the full quota in the
city OF Ardmore and hopes to double
her quota with county organiza-
tions.
The same difficulty conironts the
Victory Boys organizations in the
county. DR.. W. 5. Hancock, county
leader. reports satisfactory results
from the city. All of the wards un-
der direction OF c. L. Cotter, city
leader, are doing excellent work. but
up to the present no reports have
been received from the county lead
.ers and while the difficulty is rec
ognized, DR.. Hancock urges coun-
tv leaders to hasten their work in
order that Carter county may secure
the full quota.
