aed to be worn by everyone as here

ommends that schools do not open
until after the holidays.
Pool rooms and billiard halls will
be. opened under the same regula-
tions regarding the wearing of

are OF any value there is no need of
closing legitimate business. Health
officer Pickey and the doctors OF the
city support this view. II was also
decided to quarantine all houses
where flu exists in accordance with
the recommendations of the state

BELIEVES SIBERIA WILL Be SCENE
CONTINUED from page IL

The United States government
has arranged with the allies to as
sumo the responsibility of seeing
that there is as little physical suf-
fering as possible among the people
Of Siberia, and that there are as
rapidly as possible supplied with the
necessary equipment to resume their
peaceful occupations. For this pur-
pose there has been organized the
Russian Corporation of the War
Trade Board. Working in coopera-
tion with the quartermaster depart
ment Of the U. S. army, very large
quantities Of supplies are now being
forwarded to Siberia and offered for
barter or on other basis of exchange
in the principal cities OF Siberia.
THE actual going ahead rapidly
of the development of the enormous
raw resources of Siberia will prob
ably be delayed for several months,
although the attention OF the world
is now being centered on the posi-
bilities Of Siberia to such an extent
that we believe that it will be the
scene Of the worlds next great de-
velopment.
Siberia is approximately twice as
large as the United States, with
enormous wealth in agricultural re-
sources, timber, mines and fisheries.
1--WE have gathered in our files
the most complete information avail
able in the world on the subject Of
the industrial possibilities of Siber-
Ia, this information having been
gathered by months Of work in the
government offices and in the Rus
sian section OF the libraries OF con-
gress. We gathered this informa-
tion in the belief that there would be
a very great demand to know the
truth about Siberia. This data is
available in our offices, or we would
be very glad to answer any specific
questions that you may wish to ask"
