SITUATION IT ON
RUSS FRONTS
NOT CHANGED
Fifteen Bolshevists Killed
By One Shell Machine
4 Guns Active.

Archangel, Wednesday, April g.
(By the Associated Press. AT AL

was reported that the situation was
unchanged on all fronts. The enemy
has made no new attacks since being
severely repulsed yesterday but the
tive in the Odozerskaia sector.
After the Bolsheviki had held a po-
sitton for several hours astride the
road between Bolshoia Ozera and
Odozerskaia on Sunday afternoon they
were driven out and 1t is reported by
prisoners that their losses were ex-
tremely heavy. One shell from Rus
sian battery exploded in the midst Of
q party of Bolsheviki, killing fifteen
men. The Allied machine gun fire
also caused many casualties
1t was during the period when the
enemy held this road and were raid

q little used trail through the woods
that Bryant r. Ryall of Bloomfield,
N. j.. Y. M. c. A. secretary, and

STEEL PRICES
WILL NOT ENTER
INTO PURCHASES
Metal For Navy Will be
Bought on Competitive
Bids, Say Officials.

Washington. April 4.-steel for the
competitive bids, regardless of prices
agreed upon by the Industrial board
with the industry and whatever may
be the outcome Of the conferences
now going on to determine the future
policies Of the board.
Acting Secretary Roosevelt said to-
day this decision had been reached
after the legal officers of the depart
ment had ruled that the department
was required by law to secure this
material by public advertisement of
contracts.
The original program Of the indus
trial board for price agreements al
ready has been upset by the refusal
Of the railroad administration to buy
steel or coal at agreed prices Now
the whole question of the boards
policy is open, awaiting the outcome
of further conferences between men,
bership Of the board and heads of the
government departments and pur-
chasing agencies.
Most of the cabinet officers are
said to take the position that no ac-
ton Of the board can be binding in
the matter Of government purchases
and that prices fixed by agreement
can be regarded only as setting a fair
standard Of reasonable prices.
Bids were opened at the navy de-
partment today for part of the struc-
tural steel to be used in the battle-
ships now in process of construction.
In every case the bidders used as the
base price the figures announced by
the industrial board in agreement
with the steel industry.

MEXlCANS HAVE
CHANGED IDEAS
Sentiment Toward Foreign
Investment Has Sudden
ly Reversed.

Washington April Private and
official advices from Mexico City
within the last few days were in
terpreted as clearly indicating a sud-
den change in sentiment, in the re-
public, toward Foreign Investment in
Mexico and that the coming session
of congress will clear the atmosphere
Of much Sofs the hostility shown since
the adaption of the 1917 constitution.
Diplomatic circles and officials Of the
state depa rtsnent are much interested
in this apparent. change of front, as
manifested in newspaper z editorials
and in. statenents byaHembers Of the
Mexican conefess which have been
teelgraphed here. 4.
IS The American oil interests in
Mexico. it was learned, have not re-
ceded from the stand originally taken
that their vested ssa rights in Mexico
must be recognized and that the anti
foreign and confiscatory features Of
the new constitution must not oper-
ate, ex-post facto against them.
1t appears the new attitude of the
Mexican people at least. and it is be-
lieved in official circles that this at
titude is inspired by the government,
is to recognize the rights of all people,
including foreigners, to their vested
rights under international law.
