LIEUT.. MARLEY
TO SPEAK THURS.
Fighting Parson" Has Vital
War Message For
Grand Forks.

Chaplain Markley, the lighting
parson," who will make an address at
the city auditorium or Thursday
night, has a message from the boys in
France and will supplement his mes
sage with first hand information fresh
from the front. $
Lieutenant Markley has been in
France for some months and has re-
ceived recognition for his work
among the soldiers there from officers
high in rank. While in service he was
chaplain of a replacement division
which had al average Of 500 men.
He also had a large hospital which
cared for as high as $500 wounded at
one time. He operated two canteens,
was secretary Of seven men under
him; he conducted educational classes
at night and had as high as LOO men
in to see him during a single day on
one subject or another.
Under the burden Of these tasks,
Chaplain Markley broke down, but
not before he had won the attention
of Lieutenant General Hunter Ligget.
commander Of the first army, and sec
ond in France to Genera P%ershing.
In urging the promotion Of the fight
ing chaplain to a %captaincy, Lieuten-
ant General Ligget wrote:
From personal observation of this
officer during a period when circum-
stances connected with the health and
comfort of the enlisted personnel of
the 41st division were most Distress
ing, l became convinced that Chap
lain Markley was the highest and
most useful type of chaplain in the
service. I would not only be gratifed
to indorse the promotion of this Of
flcer to the grade Of captain, but
would be glad to have him serve I'M
der and lear me-"
Chaplain Markley will be in Grand
Forks on Thursday night under the
auspices of the council Of national
defense, and will make his address at
the city auditorium. He has a vital
message to bring to his hearers, and
citizens should not miss hearing what
this soldier has to say.

Says Returning Dutch Diplomat.
Amsterdam, Dec. 1.-THE Dutch
minister at P%etrograd, who has arriv-
ed in Holland by way Of Germany,
spoke freely on his arrival Of the
conditions brought about by Bolshev-
ism in Russia and appealed to all the
workmen of all nations against Boil
shevist tendencies.
The minister characterized Bolshev-
ism as 1.-The end Of civilization Trans
lated into practice, he declared, the
Bolshevist principles r high wages
for no work." the taking Of others
property without punishment, and no
taxation" The Russian workmen, he
said, were far worse off than ever be-
fore.
1.-THE state of unemployment IN
Petrograd is terrible" the minister
said. The situation is one Of utter
exhaustion. The people do not know
how they will exist from day to day.
1 never dreamed Of such corruption
and tyranny and the absence OF all
semblance Of freedom.
