Women Aid Defence i'm
All London Air Raids

LONDON, May 23.-speakng to-day
at the London Exhibition Of Women S
Work in Munition Production, Fred
erick George Kelaway, Secretary to
the Minister of Munitions said that in
every one of the defensive measures
taken when G. raid on London is car
ried out the women have taken their
part, ecept in the actual flying of
aircraft
The development which had taken
place in women's work during the last
fourteen months, continued the Secre-
tary, was quite as remarkable as it's
development at an earlier period Of
the war. IN July, 1914, he stated, there
were 1000 women engaged in muni-
tlon industries. while in January, 1917,
that number had been increased to SOL =
900. and to-day their number was L.
100000. A steady stream of trained
women was being sent into the mum
tion factories from training schools at
the rate of 500 week. Since the Min
lst1v of Munitions had started the
schools, said the speaker, between 40
600 and $4,000 trained women had been
placed in munitions industries.

1852 Persons Put
To Death in Finland
Many Prisoners Taken by Ger
man and Finnish Govern
ment Forces Starved

LONDON, May 23.-Under the White
Guard and German regime in Finland
l,752 persons were executed up to May
I, according to Finnish Socialist who
has escaped to Sweden and whose in
terview with the "Folkets Dagblad" is
transmitted from Copenhagen by the
Exchange Telegraph Company.
According to the exile, SIG were ex-
ecuted in Tammerfors, 148 in Tornea.
$50 in Narkom and $50 in Vasa. Pris
oners taken by the German and Finnish
government forces, he says, were treat
ed so badly that many were starved to
death.
General Mannerheim. commander in
chief of the Finnish White Guard, has
resigned because of the plan of the
Finnish conservatives to invade the
Russian province of Karela. according
to an Exchange Telegraph dispatch
from Copenhagen to-day.
Russian Karelia adjoins Finland on
the east. 1t is in this district that the
Mourmansk railway. runs from the Arc
tic to a junction with the Archangel-
Petrograd line. The Entente has been
anxious to preserve the integrity of
this railway, and in Stockholm advices
received yesterday it was reported that
Great Britain had Informed the Finnish
government that any measures directed
by Finland against the railway would
be regarded by Great Bitain, France
and the United States as a breach of
neutrality.

Rioting Czechs II,
Prague Cheered
President Wilson
Prof. Masaryk, Bohemian
Delegate, Now in u. S.
Also Lauded

AMSTERDAM, May 23.-Further re-
ports Of disorders in Bohemia are pub
lished in the "Lokal-Anzeiger," of Ber-
lin. 1t appears that recently there were
extensive demonstrations in Prague,
which the police found difficulty in
quelling. Thirty arrests were made.
The first demonstration in the new
outbreak occurred on Wensel Square
in Prague on Monday The demonstra-
tion was a big one and reached such
a high pitch that in the evening the
crowd sang their patriotic hymn with
it's additional anti German verses and
raised cheers for President Wilson and
Professor Masaryk, the Bohemian dele
gate now in the United States.
Although Wensel Square was there
after forbidden the demonstrators by
the police, the demonstrations were
repeated at 10 o'clock at night, and
not until midnight did the mounted
order, the advces add.
Extreme Importance is attached to
conferences to be held next month be-
tween Baron Burian, the ,tustro- Hun
garian Foreign Minister, and the lead
ers of the Polish party regarding the
future attitude of the Poles in the
Austrian parliament. The Polish men,
bers, it is indicated, will lay down
three conditions, the first of which is
guarantee of the INTEGRITY Of the
Kingdom of Poland; the second, de-
mand for the settlement according to
Polish desires of the question of the
province of Cholm. along the Polish
border, which was awarded to the
Ukraine in the Brest-Litovsk treaty,
and which Poland desires to reclaim,
while the third condition is stpula-
tion that Galcia shall not be divided.
Whether the Poles can be induced to
support the government or will definite
ly join the opposition will depend upon
the outcome of the conferences over
these questions.
Another feature in the turmoil
among the nationalities of Austria
Hungary which recent occurrences in
Bohemia have brought to the fore is
the situation in Austria Silesia,
which lies between Moravia and Cali
ca. An anti-government meeting,
news of which was suppressed by the
local authorities, took place few
days ago at Troppau. The malcontents
in this case, among whom Count
Larsch was prominent, are Germans,
who rage fercely against the Aus
trian government, as do the .Czechs.
Their chief grievances are that the
government favors the anti German
party at the expense of Germans,
whom it purposely neglects, and that
Polish agitators are appointed to i'm
portant positions, especially in
Eastern slesia. It is alleged that
the aim of these agitators is to join
Silesia and Galicia, with the ultimate
object of joining both to Poland The
malcontents demand counter measures
and threaten to go to the extreme
length of opposition

Bulgar Socialists
Answer Labor Note
Accept, in General, the Pro-
posals of Inter-Allied
Conference

LONDON, May 23.-The first official
reply reaching London from an enemy
country to the nter-allied labor memo
randum enunciated at the inter llied
labor conference held in December
reached here to-day from the Bull
garan Socialists. Tie reply accepts
in general the proposals of the memo
randum and states that majority of
the Socialists there suggest territorial
adjustment at the end Of the war.
Although the reply maintains that
ethnographically Macedonia should be
united with Bulgaria, it seems probable
that the Bulgars will be willing to
agree to Macedonian autonomy. The
reply expresses the nope that German
Socialists will answer the memorandum
as moderately and in as conciliatory
a manner as have the Bulgars.

promise made in his Red Cross speech
TO stand by Russia" The plan IS
being formed now to ship certain sup

PIE in some parts of the country are
nearer starvation taan the people of

such sections as have suffered directly
from the ravages OF war. Iney lack
clothing. And they lack the means to
start the agriculture and industry of
the country again in operation.
The supplies which are thus to be
shipped viii be useu to purchase GER
tain supplies IN Russia which it is de-
sired to keep from falling into the
hands of the Germans. The articles

oil both of which Germany greatly
needs, and the unused war materials
of Russia great store of such ma
terials exists in Russia, and in exchange
