POLES AND UKRAINIANS
AGREE TO CEASE FIGHTING
Dispatches State Result Was
Reached Largely Through
Friendly Offices Of Yanks.

PARIS. May 13 (by the Associated
Press3.-The Poles and Ukrainians
have reached an agreement to cease
fighting, largely through the friendly
offices of Americans. The Ulsrainians
have lost heavily in the fighting with
the Poles and have also suffered in
their conflicts with the bolsheviki.
The agreement for an armistice
seems to be basis for a belief that the
Poles will assist the Ukrainians in op-
posing the bolsheviki. but the accord
between the two parties is restricted
merely to an engagement to stop
fighting.

ment of the people on the league of
nations and other administration poll
cies. has notified members of the
democratic national committee and

selected as the administration agent
to circulate through the west. the
members of the democratic national
committee feel that he is an ideal
man to advise the President upon
his return that party interests, as
well as efficiency of government serv-
ice. demand the official decapitation
of Mr.. Burleson.

IS "SMALL POTATO" MOTIVE.
Dislike Of President No Cause for

CLEVELAND. Ohio. May 14.-The
person who opposes the league of ma
tions because he dislikes President
Wilson is actuated by a small po-
tato motive" that is not worthy of
the dignity Of the pact, William How
ard Taft declared hero last night in
an address.
II am a republican and believe that
party government is the best agency
for administering a republican form
of government. but when such is
sues as the league of nations are up
for consideration we should go out
side party limitations" said Mr.. Taft.
"Civilization needs some such meas
ure as the league to prevent wars.
and the issue is too vital to the
worlds welfare and to our own to be
made a party measure.
Men who object to the clause elm
mating armaments, and I do not at
tack their motives, assert that under
such an arrangement we would be
naked to the attacks Of ruthless foes"
he continued. But 1 want to assure
you the other nations would be max ed

now is carrying on, not only bolshe-
visits. but members of other parties,
are brought under the common ban
ner. This campaign is marked by a
purported greater conci1iation toward
the bourgeois and middle-class peas
ants, but this conciliatory attitude on
paper Is hard to carry out, because
Of difficulty in restraining the pas
sions Of the uneducated."

Realize Baleful Results.

"In addition to the peasants" his
report says. 'I found the more intel
ligent workmen also had come fully
to realize the baleful results of the
bolshevist policies and understand
that national economic ruin is in thei.
wake.
"They realize, too, that the prom

have been unable to carry out thf

Sees Big Possibilities.

1t was Mr.. McGrath's opinion, how
ever, that there are big possibilities
for community buying here. The
food is in the country, he said. and
means of transporting it to Washing
ton are ample. There is needed only
effective organization for distribu-
tion.
Business done by the Park View
store was at the rate of $4,000 year,
Mr.. McGrath continued. In a single
month sales of eggs alone totaled
more than $500. Immense quantities
of eggs, butter. poultry, lard, fish,
oysters and staple products have been
handled at a big saving to the con-
sumner. The average saving Mr.. Nc
Grath estimates at between Is and
25 per cent.
The proposal for central buying
station and community buyer came
in the form of tribute to Mr.. Nc
Grath's work. Those who advocated
it stated hat the community secre-
tary, in developing the cooperative
buying plan, had rendered a great
service, to Park View, and that he
should be given an opportunity to ex-
pand the work for the benefit of all
the people of the District.

MUNICIPAL BUYING
/ STATION PROPOSED
Park View Citizens Success
! May Bring Request to
Congress.

Congress may be asked to provide
the. District with a central buying
station having refrigerator and stor-
age facilities. and to establish a new
municipal function in the office Of a
community buyer.
This plan was projected last night
by the Park View Citizens Associa-
tion as result of the highly sue
cessful experiment in community CO.
operative buying that has been con-
Quoted in that section. The associa-
ton will send it's recommendation to
the community center department OF
the public schools. with the request
that it be provided for in the gen.
eral estimates to go to Congress.
Decision to urge the expansion OF
community buying on a scale that
will enable all the people of the Dis
trict to employ this means of reducing
living costs was reached when John
G. McGrath. community secretary and
community buyer for Park View, an
nounced at the meeting that he would
retire from the work next month. He
said the community store in the Park
View School, Newton and Warder
streets, where the meeting was held,
is being closed out and that the
money which was advanced by citi
zens for financing the experiment is
being returned.
Evening star., 1919-05-14
What Plan Contemplates.

The plan contemplates the shipment
Of all food supplies that would be pur-
chased by the community buyer to a
central storage house, whence it would
be allotted to the several community
centers for community distribution. 1t
Is believed that this arrangement would
lead to economies approximating at
least 25 per cent of the present cost of
food. The plan has been advocated by
District Commissioner Gardiner.
There was a note of criticism of COM
1nunfty center management in the Dis
trict in Mr.. McGrath's announcement of
his intention to resign. He said the To-
cal communities and their secretaries
are not given sufficient latitude in in
terpreting community desires; that the
general community secretary exercises
an authority over the whole work that
is not helDful to its natural expansion.
He said the Park View store was
maintained with the knowledge that
1t might be stopped at any time If
the general community secretary
chose to stop it, regardless of what
the community might think of it.
