FOE PRESSES
ON IN RUSSIA
(By Associated Press)

The Bolsheviki acceptance of the
German peace terms has not yet halt
ed the German armies engaged In the
new invasion Of Russia and additional
wide territory has been occupied by
the TeutOnic troops.
At the same time a hint of possible
resistance, despite the Bolsheviki cap
itulation to Germany, comes through
Berlin in a. news agency dispatch.
This declares that General Bruje-
witch, former chief Of staff to Ensign
Krylenko, has been appointed success
sor to Krylenko in command Of the
Russian armies and proclaimed die
tator. He is declared to have order
ed the Russian armies and proclaimed
dictator. He is declared to have or
dered the Russian troops to fight to
the last against the Germans. This
German report is not confirmed from
other sources.
One Of the most notable advances
by the invading Germans recorded in
todays Berlin official announcement
was made by General Won Lfnsengen's s
forces in Volhynia, which have push
ed more than 100 miles eastward from
the triangle of fortresses recently oc-
cupied and have reached Znitomir,
within s5 miles of Kiev, the objective
in the Ukraine. At Znitomir, contact
with the Ukrainian forces was estab-
lished. The Bolsheviki had possession
Of kiev at the time the latest reports
from that city were received.
In the north the Germans have TAX
en- possession of Pernau, the Russian
port on the Gulf OF Riga, 19 miles
north of Riga toward the northeast. A
flying column penetrated to Dorpat,
covering more than 130 miles in five
and half days and gathering in 5000
prisoners on the way.

Begin Poll This Week For Sale
of Thrift and War Savings Stamps

The campaign for the sale of thrift
stamps and war savings certificates in
Richmond and Wayne township is now
we'll under way.
Joseph II. Hill, chairman for Wayne
township. presided at meeting held
Sunday afternoon which was attended
by the chairmen of the eight city
wards and the five precincts outside
of Richmond. Plans for the polling
of the township. including the city,
were made.
The government has requested that
an accurate poll be made. in order
that 1t may be definitely shown the
number Of persons residing in each
ward and precinct and full knowledge
be given as to the ability of such per-
sons 10 buy thrift stamps and war
savings certificates.
There is no contribution being ask
ed, consequently the government de.
sires to have all persons understand
thoroughly that the purchase of a
stamp for twenty-five cents or war
certificate for S413, the cost this
month, is merely a loan to the gov
ernment to assist in the prosecution
of the war.
The return to the purchaser will be
equivalent to four percent interest
compounded. In other words, a war
certificate stamp at the price of Sab

will be worth IS at maturity. It is
pointed out by the committee in charge
that there is not a family in Rich
mond of the county that is unable to
purchase one or more of these GER
tificates.
The polling of the city, which will
begin this week, will be used in check
ing up the sales as they are made in
order that it may be ascertained just
who is purchasing stamps and certifi-
Gates as well as showing those who
have declined to assist in this work
Joseph Fl. Mills, chairman of the
county, said Monday that many of
the townships are showing much ac-
tivity just now, and there is reason to
believe that several of them, in addi-
tion to Center township. will soon
reach the coveted goal. Center town
ship already has sold it's quota, but
is reaching out for further records.
The fact that thrift stamps and GER
tificates are considered by many men
of wealth as gilt edge investments,
Is shown in the purchases now being
made through postoffices and banks.
1t has been customary at this season
of the year, just prior to the first of
March when the tax assessment be-
gins. for persons to convert their cash
into non-taxable securities. Naturally
just now thrift stamps aAd certificates
are very attractive.

last May 1S-have been placed in a
special class under the draft by the
district board This class corresponds
to Section A of Glass One and the
men placed in it will see service at
the same time as the single men in
Glass One.
This ruling was received from the
district board.
It covers the cases Of all men mar
ried since May IS. who had been
placed in Glass Four by the Richmond
board after careful scrutiny of their
motives in getting married.
The only appeal which can be taken
is to the president of the United
States.
In case men under this ruling wish
to appeal the local board members are
willing to assist the appeal by signing
the papers. The board has the priv
ilege Of assisting in appeals but this is
the first time it has announced its will
ingness TO do so.
The ruling by the district board fol-
lows an appeal taken by William Dud-
ley Foulke. who is government attor-
ney in draft cases here. FOulke had
no opinion, under a war department
ruling, which provided that all such
cases must be taken to the district
board.
In the cases of the so men affected
by the district boards ruling they had
been placed in Glass Four by the

EXTRA BEDS

NEW YORK, Feb. %. - At least
$4,000 more tuberculosis hospital beds
will be needed in the United States
within the next two years to make
possible adequate control of the dis
ease and check it's lavages under war

Prevention of tuberculosis is contain
ed in statement issued here today,
which says that there are $4,000 beds
available in the country at present
The estimate is tased on a revised
conception of the prevalence of the
disease as the result largely of the
examination of recruits and drafted
men for our new army and navy.

LONDON, Feb 25-One of the
younger of the flyers in the Royal Fly
ing corps of whom England expects to
hear Il great deal before the war is
over is Lieut.. w. G. Cambray
The lad is only twenty-three years
old. but already has an enviable air
record as well as one for efficient and
valiant service with the land forces.
He was a champion mile runner in
school when the war broke out and
he sprinted at his best clip to enlist in
the London Rifle brigade. In few
months he had commission as bat
talon Lewis gun officer. Before the
Somme he was commissioned also as
battalion intelligence officer and he
went through that campaign in the
dual capacity.
His transfer to the flying corps was
less than year ago, but he already
has good bag to his credit and he
has been decorated with the military
cross for conspicuous bravery.

U. S. EMBASSY TO
STAY IN RUSSIA

PETROGRAD, Sunday, Feb. "a
The American embassy has deter
mined to remain in Petrograd pending
developments. The other ambassadors
here have not decided what they will
do
A special train carrying more than
100 Americans, including some mem
bers of the embassy staff, left today
for Siberia.
A report that the American embassy
left Petrograd Saturday for Vologda,
was contained in a Petrograd dispatch
to the Exchange Telegraph Company,
dated Saturday and received in Lon
don yesterday.
The allied ambassadors at a confer
ence today at the American embassy,
determined to remain in Petrograd
pending developments until the gen.
eral belief in embassy circles is that
the German terms which the Bolshev-
Xxi have agreed to accept are couched
in such ambiguous terms that they
must be cleared up thoroughly before
the actual status of Russia can be as
certained.
Some members of the embassy staff
already have left while others will
leave by way of Siberia on a special
train tonight.
