Director General Hines put sud
den end to the strike Of express drivers
In New York by threatening to FIJI
their places with troops but efforts to
settle the longshoremen's strike there
were futile and the food shortage in
the metropolis grew worse daily with
prices soaring. In order that there
should be no further delay in govern
ment work on transports and other
vessels, Secretary Of War Baker sent
a large number Of troops to the port
to take the places Of strikers, and
the latter were warned that lnterfer-
encc with the soldiers would be met
with bullets The troops, II was de-
clared by the army officials, would
do only government work. Although
some Of the longshoremen's locals
have voted to abandon the strike and
IL Is disapproved by their international
officers, most Of the men refuse 20 re-
turn to work unless they are given 81
an hour and 81 an hour for overtime

BOIshcviki Are WarIike.
The Russian Bolshevi1i. who have
displayed an eagerness to fight every
body except the old German autoc-
racy, appear to be a the bottom of
more than half the present trouble in
Europe. Until recently they have been
waging war against the forces of the
allies on two fronts: the northern.
comprising the region around Archan-
gel and the Thurman coast, where sew
eral thousand Americans are part of
the allied forces, and the southern in
Guiding Odessa and the Crimea. On
the southern front the Bolsheviki have
prevailed, but in the north the fight
ing has been going against them.
The war between the Bolsheviki
and the Russian Ioyalists is being
waged on several fronts. the most inn
portant being those where the Ioyalists
are commanded, respectively, by
Admiral Kolchak and General Deni-
kline. These two leaders have recently
reported brilliant successes in engage
ments with the reds.
A third war being waged by the
Trotzky-Lenine government is against
the Ukrainian Nationalists under
Petlura, who resent Bolshevist inter-
ference in Ukrainian affairs. Latest
advices would seem to show that after
some reverses, Petlura is finally gain
ing the upper hand.
Considerable haziness surrounds the
fighting between the Bolsheviki and

Some weeks ago the Bolsheviki sent

Stories of Heroism.
Major Goodman tells of one Kansas
BOY in the division who was captured
Dy a German raiding party and who
begged his own men to open up with
their machine guns and kill him so
that he would not be made a prisoner.
Another story ne tells is about two
men in the division who came in con-
tact with four Germans and engaged
them in a free-for-all. The Huns
were getting the best of it when one
of the Americans found a scare
grenade" and hurled it in the midst
of the melee. When it went off no
one was hurt but the Germans took
to their heels in a hurry. The Ameri-
can who had thrown the grenade was
feeling pretty good about having sue
cessfully pulled his trick when the
other one turned to him and said in
disgust:
You damn fool. what did you do
that for? We would have captured
all four of them if you hadn't done
it"
Major Goodman gives much credit
for the showing made by the Eighty
ninth to the training it received at
Camp Funston under General Wood;
but he also gives a great deal of the
credit to General Winn and General
Wright who commanded it in action.
He says that when the men come back
they will be found swearing by Gen.
eral Winn and that the 353rd ALL
Kansas regiment will probab bly, want
to run Col. James H. Reeves for presi-
dent.

Director General Illness efforts to OBJ

Hines accepted under emphatic

commerce and rejected as too high by
Hines.
The director general was out for a

Pressing needs of the railroad ad-

'ceptance of the bids. Hines said. in de-
inouncing the United States Steel Cor

campaigns of the Russians against
the Austrians and Germans in the
early part of the great war have been
fought near Lemberg, Przemysl, and
other Galician cities. So serious was
the fighting that the allied govern
ments sent strong protests to the COM
batants. which caused the trouble to
calm down for a while, but it has
flared up several times despite these
protests.
Other Wars.
With the Republic of Czechoslo-
vakia. southwest of Poland, the new
Polish government also had differ
ences. These concerned especially
the region comprising the valuable
mines of Teschen.
In the region of Libau the Germans
are at war with the Let's. Recently
the former were reported to have GUST
ed Lettish government at Libau and
substituted one of their own. What
has happened since then is doubtful.
One of the liveliest battlefields dur
ing the last few weeks has been Hun
gary. After the armistice Hungary
existed for while precariously under
a democratic regime headed by Count
Karolyi, but it was overthrown by
Hungarian Reds under Bella Kun and
others. who appeared to be in direct
communication and sympathy with
the Lenine-TrotZky crew at Moscow.
The Hungarian Reds found themselves

heads of the new regime had to ca st
about to find means of meeting a con-
verging invasion of Hungary by Ru-

Slovak forces, approaching Budapest
from the east. south and north. The
Red forces were worsted in several
battles, and, at latest reports. the in
