" HELPS MINIMIZE
BOLSHEvISM
Besides Regular "Y" Features Huts
Maintain Systematic Educa-
tional Campaign

Paris (By Mail)-The most serious
worries of the new Czecho- Slovak Re-
public are the food situation and boil
shevism, the latter partly resulting
from the former and partly from Mag
var propaganda, according to Irving D.
Kimball of Lowell, Mass, Y. M. c. A.
secretary from Prague, who is in Paris
for supplies.
Food from the United States,
brought in under direction of Herbert
Hoover, already noticeably is reliev
ing the food shortage, Mr.. Kimball
says, and the Y. M c.. A. is doing
much to minimize bolshevism.
When the first army of Czecho-S lo-
yak troops who had been with the
French entered Prague January Mr..
Kimball, who had been with the Foyer
du Soldat, was with them and now
twelve Y. M. c. A. huts, directed by
Mr.. Kimball and +. j. Wright Of Ok
lahoma, are in operation in Bohemia.
Besides these athletics. reading and
writing rooms, cinema and entertain
ment features these huts maintain
a systematic educational campaign
against bo.shevism, so effective has
this campaign proved that the
Czecho- Slovak army has arranged
with the Y. NJ C. A. to increase it's
number Of centres from twelve to
fifty during the present year, The
the next three months and thirty
more after July.

COAL STRIKE FEUD
 FAR FROM SETTLED
Secretary Wilson's Proposal Has Only
 Widened Breach. Operators

Washington, Nov. 22.-Bituminous coal operators in the central competl- tive field declared today that Secretary NHson's proposal to the joint wage scale committee yesterday had serv eo only to widen the breach between the operators and miners.
 There are only few more words to say and they will be said very soon,' declared Thomas T. Brewster, chairman of the operators, before en- tering the meeting of the operators scale committee.
 1t was understood that Secretary Watson had proposed to the miners and operators yesterday an increase of 21.12 cents ton for coal diggers and $1.5S per day for day laborers. Some operators said this was wholly unsatisfactory to them.
 After the scole committee adjourned the operators would make no formal statement, but some of them said pri- Vately they would go into session late today with the miners representa- tives with a definite policy
 <~ John l.. Lewis, acting president of the miners, would not discuss Mr Wilson's proposal, saying that it was agreed that happenings at the confer ence al which MT. Wilson's proposal was made were to be regarded by both sides as confidential.

URGES BIG FLEET. British Naval Authority Is Skeptical About League Of Nations.

Calgary, Alberta, Nov. 22.-Main- tenance of Great Britain's naval program, especially in view of "events of the past few days and uncertainty about the League of Nations, is urged by Admiral Viscount Jellicoe, former ly first sea lord, who now is on tour of the empire.
 Events of the past few days have disheartened those who had faith in the immediate result of the forma tio T of the League of Nations" he said at a banquet here last night 'These events need not make us pessimistic as to it's future policies, but where the existence of an empire is the consideration, I cannot help thinking that the people will want to be sure what they will absolutely secure under a League of Nations before they will consent to cutting down expenditure for naval defense"

Many of the new party men went to the meeting this morning after all night conferen "esa caused, they said, by conflict between radical and conser- ation of Labor with possible injection into the controversy of third ele- lnent.
 The convention was called recently by John Fitzpatrick. president of the Chicago Federation of Labor and chairman of the national steel strike committee and his associates in the Middle West
 The two major parties would be attacked Fitzpatrick said, with the intention of rendering them impotent, The democratic party first would be assaiied, he said, because of it's at titude toward union labor,' and an assault on the republican organization would follow.
 Among resolutions which delegates said would be presented to the con- vention were those advocating free speech and the right of free assem- bly,, removal of the allied blockade of the Soviet government of Russia and an endorsement of the Bo1shevik gOvernm ent.
