WASHINGTON. Nov. s.-Uhro-Rusini
isn't the name OF new breakfast food
or a patent medicine.
It's one OF the new nations formed in
Europe which is about 10 profit by
President Wilson's note 10 Austria and
shake OF the chains which have bound
1t TO Hungary for years.
"Uhro" means "Of Hungary" and
"Rusiniar means "Ruthenia," so the
UhrO-Rusins are simply Ruthenians
who inhabit Hungary.
They live I'm the Hungarian provinces
along the southern slopes OF the Car
pathian mountains. Racially they are
closely akin TO the Ruthenlans OF Ga-
lica and the Little Russians OF the
Ukraine.
Problem of Uhro-Rusins.
This problem, as explained by Gregory
ZsatkOvich, representative in the United
States Of the UhrO-Rusinian people, is
as follows:
When Austria is dismembered and its
racial components given the right OF
self-determination, 10 what national
body will Uhro-Ruslnia adhere?
1T Is too small 10 form a government
OF its own. having only about one mil
lion population, and It is closely related
racially TO the other Slavic races OF
Hungary and Austria.
I'VE could unite with Czecho-Slovakia
with perfect harmony, and this union
would spread the boundaries Of that re-
public from the Silesian border 10 the
Carpathians.
we could also unite with just as
perfect harmony with the Ukraine, for
our people come Of the same little Rus
sian stock as the ukralnians and our
language and customs are much the
same.

DRYS WIN SIX
STATES; LOSE THREE

WASHINGTON, Nov. s.-virtually
complete returns indicate that prohibit
tion has been indorsed by six States
and rejected by three.
The most spectacular campaign was
in Ohio, where It looked for a time as
is the "wet" sentiment in Cincinnati
and Cleveland would prove too heavy
a handicap for the "drys" to carry.
As the rural districts reported, how
ever, the wet" majority was wiped out.
With 1925 out OF 800 precincts heard
from the vote was: For prohibition,
3Si ,425; against 37s069 As most Of
the remaining precincts were rural and
dry" passage OF the amendment was
generally conceded.
Florida went dry without an effort
but the effect OF prohibition in that
State will be largely flgurative. Under
the present local option law sale OF
liquor IS permitted in only two coun-
ties.
Washington voted for prohibition and
so did Wyoming the drys in the latter
State Outnumbering their opponents by
nearly to 4.
Dry maiOrities in Minnesota and Ne
vada were small and the VETS still hope
remaining returns will upset them. As
the wet centers are all in, however,
their chances are regarded as slight.
California and Colorado also rejected
prohibition by decisive maiorities.

CAMP DIX. Wrightstown. n. j., Nov
e.-Wiih the roaring cheer Of $4,000
voices yesterday. Camp Dix, which
trained two Of the divisions that were
'over there" greeted the supposed
news Of the Hun capitulatiOn. IL was
the greatest OF many great demOnstra-
lions the cantOnment has witnessed
when the entire command, hastily sum
mOned 20 the parade ground by order of
Maj0r-General Hugh l.. Scott, heard the
mOmentOus announcement read by Col
onel G.. 5. White. chief Of stan.
The premature news had already
spread like wildfre about the camp, and
the soldiers. tense for the official con-
flrmali0n, let loose tornado Of noisy
delight the instant the chief Of stan
concluded his message. Thousands Of
hats were hurled into the ari. band in
struments and all available nOise-mak-
ing apparatus added 20 the din. They
cheered for the great victory, they
cheered for the Allies and they cheered
for their own comrades who had such
q brilliant part IN the battles Of the
titanic struggle for civilization.
Then came the most thrilling feature
OF the celebration when 25.OOO troops
passed on the parade ground faced
headquarters, and. under leadership Of
Camp Song Director William Simmons,
sang The star Spangled Banner" as
the ilag on headquarters hill was low
cred. Nature itself added a miraculous
touch to the scene. for, as the last note
died away, a new crescent moon broke
from The sunset clouds In the rear Of
the massed soldiers.
The celebration was continued last
night with demonstrations in every hut
and soldiers club. A central jubilee
was held in the Red Triangle Auditor
ium, where "Bill" Simmons led the
great building in the songs the war has
made famous. Later news showing that
the announcement OF a signed armlstice
was unfOunded did not wholly dampen
the enthusiasm OF the troops, but many
Of them appeared glad, indeed, that they
may still have a chance to share I'm the
great victory.
Arrangements are being rushed for
the reception Of the thousands Of re-
