ANYTHING FOR TOBACCO
Inveterate Smokers Along Dwina and
Vaga Suffer for Weed.

A tobacco famine has become sc
pronounced in the territory along the
Dwina and Vaga Rivers, where Russo
Allied troops are operating in north
ern Russia, that the peasants are will
ing to exchange almost anything they
have for small quantities of tobacco
or cigarettes.
The correspondent went ashore from
fiat-bottomed old paddle-wheeled
steamer with a packet OF ten very bad
cigarettes and secured in exchange
twelve eggs, half bushel Of potatoes
and ten pounds Of cheese. The Rus
sian peasant has been an inveterate
smoker for nearly century. During
the last six months the tobacco-grow-
ing country in the south has been cut
off from the north by battle lines and
the supply was soon exhausted.
The peasants have been smoking tea
leaves, tree leaves and dried moss.
Each boat that comes up the river
and stops at village is besieged by
peasants asking for cigarettes or "nee
minoshka tabak," meaning little to
bacco.
Money is virtually worthless in
transactions with the peasants, ten
cigarettes going much farther than
100 rubles in the purchase of pro-
duce.

GERMAN AIR LOSS IMMENSE
Expert Says Taking 1000 Machines
Means Militarism's End

Means Militarism's End
For the Allies to take 1000 air
planes from Germany! in accordance
with the terms of the armistice,
means military cripphng Germany
in the air beyond hope of early re-
covery, while immensely. adding to
the aerial strength of the Allies, says
an aviation expert. This is empha-
sized, he says, by the.fact that in five
months. of the heaviest air fighting
5of the war Germany lost in aerial
combat with the British alone some
Thing like 2700 machines. To this to
tai must be added the destruction
wrought by the French and Ameri-
can air services.
The expert asserts that for several
months before the arnistice Ger
n,any's capacity for producing air,
planes was unequal to the task OF re
placing her immense losses. This. he
adds, was strikingly Illustrated by
the almost complete failure of he'
air arm during the final and mos'
critical phase Of the war.

PRESIDENTS STAND
SURPRISES ITALY

Paris, Jan. 16.-Italy's peace dele
rates have been much surprised at
PRESIDENT Wilson'S frmness in retus-
ing to recognize the Italian claims
,evond Trent and Trieste, said the
Paris edition Of the London Daily
nail, in giving an account OF the
conversation between the President
md Premier Orlando, of Italy.
Baron Sonnino, the Italian foreign
minister, insisted on Italy anneXlng
.,art of the Delmatian coast and
Fieume, but Mr.. Wilson contended
hat the majority of the cost was
inhabited by Slavs, and, though the
italian nationality was in the ma
iority in Fieume itself, the Italian
lain did rot balance the need for a
sea outlet fc-- the commercial neceS-
;ities of millions of Slavs.
The President believed that the
ignoring of the Slav claim would
incur their enmity and create a new
hanger to the peace of Europe.
The Italians argue that President
Wilson is not placing enough import
ance on their strategic needs and Is
substituting league Of nations as
guarantee of peace.
Premier Lloyd George is still anX
ious to have the Bolshevik regime
in Russia represented at the peace
conference, according to Marcel Hut
in, famous French publicist.

.COUN TR Y GOES DRY
l'hirty-Sixth State to Ratify Proh;bi-
ton Amendment is Nebraska Which
Acted Today May Become ETec.
tive July /.

tive July /.
Tie tliirty-sixth state to win the
honor Of making America q dry nation
was Nebraska. This was done today
by tie legislature. This gives the
required three-fourths vote to make
prohibition a basic law of the land
States in the running today in addi-
ton to Nebraska were Missouri and
Minnesota.
Of the thirty-fve states that al
ready acted, only fourteen thus far
have notified he state department
Of their ratification.
Ratified by Thirty-tiye States
Of the thirty-five States to vote on
the amendment thirty-five have ratl-
fled it.
National dry leaders in Washington
today were confident that d:Stilicrs'
attenpts to force a referendum on
the legislature ratification of the Fed
cral dry amendment in California and
dozen or more other States are
doomed to failure.
The Constitution provides that an
amendment must be ratified by the
legislatures" Of three-fourths of the
States.
1T is hard to conceive how any
State law or any section of State
constitution giving the right Of refer
endum to the voters could override
a specific provision in the Federal
Constitution" said Representative
Webb Of North Carolina, chairman of
the House Judiciary Committee, and
co-author of the ebb-Kenyon law.
Representative Randall of Cali
fornia pointed out that laws of most
of the States which had the referen-
dun provided that the voters might
pass upon "acts of the State Legis-
lature."
"The Try amendment is not an act
of any State Legislature. because it
originated in Congress" Randall said.
The amendment, under its provision.
becomes effective one year from the
date of its final ratification. Add:
tional legislation by Congress is nee
essary to make it operative, and
ground work for this already has been
laid. This legislation will prescribe
penalties for violations of the amend
ment and determine how and by what
agencies the law shall be enforced.
# ratification is completed this
month many officials in Washington
believe the country will become per-
manentlv "Gry" next July |, date on
which the special wartime prohibition
recently enacted by Congress goes in
to effect. This law prevents the man
ufacture and sale Of intoXicants 70:
beverage purposes, and remains IN
force until the demobilization of the
nations war armies is completed.

dissatisfied and quit and have organized
a team from their locality which they
are positive can take the Trailers'
measure. The gate receipts will be
split Is and rs, so there is no question
but both teams will do their utmost to
get the long end of the purse. From

large crowd of rooters who are just as
confident that Hardware will win.
They all feel that Hermanson will be
able to keep the locals from crossing

farmer boys and city boys settle the
matter as to who has the better team.
