Aroused Ky Tearing Off of Territory f" Flacate Ukraine, Kew Hing. dOm Threatens Germans
 With Serious Revolt.
Associated Press Summary.)

(ASSOclaJeO freSS Summary.)
 Germany has suddenly found herself involved in maze of difficulties on the eastern front and in danger of losing all large benefits she was calm ly preparing to realize from her peace with the Ukraine and the Bolsheviki withdrawal of Russia from the war.
 Poland is threatenin~ to constitute herself the rock on which the German hopes of peace and expansion in the east may be shattered. Embittered by the tearing off of strip or their ter ritory to be given the Ukraine for. breaking away from the Bolsheyiki, the Poles are in virtually state of revolt. Even the very weapons which Germany and Austria were at such pains to forge to derive military bene- fit bid fair to be turned against them. Reports in German newspapers, which expressed may and alarm over the Po- fish situation, indicates that the Po- fish lesions, now an effective military force are on the sde of the prevalent Polish bitterness against the central powers. The situation is so serious hat the military are patroling streets in Warsaw.
 Germans Plan Attack on Russia.
 It already has been reported that Germany purposes resuming military operations against northern Russia and this report gains color by an- nouncements that the commissions rep resentinp the central powers at Petro- grad have left the Russian capital and passed within the German military lirns
 The probable German purpose to attack the Bolsheviki is also indicated in Vienna dispatch declaring that if Germany decided to resume military operations against Russia, the attitude of Austria would not be influenced thereby. This would seem to mean that Austria intends to leave Germany to fight the battle alone in North Russia.
 Sofia dispatches declare that Bull garia has resumed diplomatic rela- tions with Russia.
 Russia Holds German Hostages.
 Amsterdam, Feb. 16.-German forces are already being concentrated in the Ukraine to attack the Bolshe- wiki, according to a Berlin dispatch, and declarations looking to active pros, ecution of the war against the Bolshe- wiki in north Russia will be made at Berlin next week. r..
 German authorities are anxious re- garding the fate of German prisoners, whom the Bolsheviki are holding as hostages and who, Berlin dispatches say, may be killed if the Bolsheviki are driven to desparation. Germany has already served notice on the Bolsheviki that she will enforce re- prisals if German prisoners are harm- ed.

 Tt is perfectly monstrous that we should stand outside this cinema bus iness," said the Rev H. R. L. Shep- hard, who presided. The way in which the cinema might be used for benefiting the lot of the people is per fectly amazing to anyone who has thought at all.

A MISTAKEN ZEAL

In mistaken zeal to do something for the aboriginal inhabitants of Alaska our great government annually contributes a couple of hundred thou sand dollars for establishment of new and maintenance of already estab- lished native schools. These schools, scattered about wherever natives live in this vast domain. are similar to country public schools for the whites. Tic little native children, and big ones, too, for that matter. are taught reading, writing and arithmetic and the like And that is about as far as this big. rich government goes to- ward aiding the aborgincs of Alaska. To give them smattering of an cdu- cation that is of little use to them, under their present deplorabl" phys ical condition. and the government d;smisscs it's responsibility towards them.
 The governments policy toward the natives of Alaska is all wrong. The funds which 1t annually Appropriates coUld be employed to real advantage among the natives if the native schools were entirely eliminated. and in lieu thereof the natives taught san itation and health and useful trades and occupations. so that they might become self-supporting What is the sense in teaching the native children how to read, write and figure, and at the same time neglect the health and physical well-being of them? It is ridiculous policy, and one that should hc changed.
 We very often hear the thoughtlcss expression that the natives are fast dying race that will soon pass into history, that it would be quite use less to make an effort to improve their physical well-being We can not subscribe to this harsh view of the matter The native enjoys life as well as a white person. He is the original inhabitant of Alaska This is primarily his country. The coming of the whites has made things harder for the native Before the advent of tn" whites the natives lived with com paratiVc ease off the products of the sea. the land and the air. The least that the white raCe-whiCh is the dominating race in America-can do is to employ an intelligent effort to lessen the burden of the native.
 Nhlt is needed are corps of trained sanitary experts and medical men who are interested in their work in the numerous native villages in tho territory, in an effort to wipe out disease and teach the natives proven tive methods. They should likewise he taught useful trades and occupa- tions In short they should be taught how 10 guard themselves against dis ease and how to make living under the changed conditions. Theoretical school learning is of no particular ad- vantage to them in their present physical state-EX.

SHIP REPAIRS ARE HALTED
 BY BOYCOTT

BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 3.-The build ing and repair of vessels of the allied nations in this port has been almost stopped by a labor union boycott on lumber on the local market the boy colt on it's use halted all woodwork on ships
 The boycott is believed by shipping agents here to have been evolved by Germans and Spaniards in Buenos Aires partly as a hindrance to allied shipping. It has been alleged for a year or more that German funds and German ingenuity were behind the labor organizations here which are directed by Spaniards.
 A few months ago nearly a dozen allied vessels were damaged in col lisions while being taken down the river by licensed pilots of Austrian and Greek birth. The collisions oc- cured in broad daylight and seemed so obviously premeditated that ship agents charged they were deliberately brought about in the interests of the Germans. A govt mment inyesiiSa- tinn Was started, but no report vas cret made public
 Labor organizations delayed repair work on them so that two of the yes. sels are still here with no hope of their being seaworthy for two or three months mCrr. Now all classes of ship laborers are forbidden by their unions
