MOTION PICTURES TO ID THEIR BIT
 IN VICTORY LOAN

WASHINGTON March 29.-Re- sources of the motion picture industry have been mobiliZed for the Victory Liberty loan drive, beginning April 2l. The treasury announced today that ap- peals which would be conveyed to bond buyers through the silent drama would form the most extensive propa- ganda campaign ever conducted by means of the screen theaters
 More than 100000 feet of film will be employed in explaining the necessity of buying bonds and more bonds now that the war has been won.
 Chief among the ptoducts will be a 5000 foot film "The Price of Peace" which virtually is photographic record of how the countrys billions were spent. An animated story of-the great war it contains thrilling battle scenes, many of which heretofare have been under the ban of the censor and shown only to military authorities. Among the incidents are the first American attack on Chateau Thierry, a German plane being destroyed in the air field piece with it's crew being wiped out by a shell, and American soldiers keeping watch on the Rhine.
 This film was made by army signal corps pnOtOSrdpnerS ana because IL IS so vital a record of what American troops did in the war, it will not be shown at theaters, but will be exhibited in public halls, with admission free To assure wide distribution 150 copies of the film have been made.
 Films made by 27 motion picture stars for the Fourth loan, which it was not possible to show in many cities be- cause of the influenza epidemic have been altered and re-titled to suit the present loan, and will do duty as in- tended. Among the actors who have made new films are Douglas Fairbanks and Julian Filing.

Send Instructions to Foch On. Matter = Consider Breach of Armistice Pos sible- Have Given No LII timatum Yet-Insist Pc fish Troops Pass

PARIS, March 2o.-(By The Asso- ciated Press)-President Wilson and the Premiers constituting the council of four, gave Marshal Foch instructions today regarding the situation at Dan zig, where the Germans have refused to permit the landing of Polish troops.
 The nature of the instructions will probably not be revealed until they are made known in Germany.
 LONDON, March 2e.-(By The As sociated Press)-ln addition to rein forcements to the garrison at Danzig the Germans, according to advices re- ceived here, are said to be mounting guns along the Prussian coast near that port.
 PARIS, March 29-(By The Asso- ciated Press)-The military situation at Danzig, where negotiations are un- der way for the passage through Ger many of three Polish legions intended for service with the Polish army, is ex- plained by military experts attached to the peace commission in a different manner from the explanation given in dispatches from Berlin.
 It is said the purpose appears to be to uIItCI tue movement or these trOODS so as to avoid unnecessary chance of friction or hostile collisions with the German populace in the region to be traversed. Therefore. while Danzig was named in the armistice as the port of debarkation best adapted for the purpose, it is regarded by the military authorities as only proper that the en- tente commanders should consider any proposal by the German authorities looking to the use of other German ports as a violation of the armistice.
 So far as is known nothing in the nature of an ultimatum has been de. livered and it is believed the issue vii be settled satisfactorily without 2 breach.
 One source of delay has been found 1T the failure to secure quickly the ship. ping necessary to convey the PolisH legions to the German port of deharka. ton. In will require 30 ships of 5.OOt tons each and two months time to com. plete the movement, and negotiation, have been completed for furnishint this large amount of transport.

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO, March 29.-Chicago's s municipal campaign for mayor closed tonight with a carnival of noise and downtown spectacles which many ob- servers declared had not been equalled in years. Besides circus rings, there were stages to accommodate the nu- merous performers supporting each of the six candidates for mayor at the election on Tuesday, April l.
 Bands blared through the downtown streets all day; automobiles loaded with political workers, their vehicles beflagged and pennant decorated showered handbills; women filled auto trucks and with megaphone pro- claimed the names of their favorite can didates; clowns paraded; soldiers and sailors in small companies marched; the business heart of the city was bed lam, as the burlesque ragged, with street corner oratory flowing from balconies, boxes and automobiles. Nu- merous fistic encounters occurred without serious results so far as re- ported.
 Mayor William Hale Thompson, re- publican; County Clerk Robert NJ Sweitzer, democrat, and States Attor- ney Maclay Hoyne, a democrat run ming as an independent candidate by petition, each claimed victory tonight in the contest for mayor by large plu- ralities.
 Other mayoralty candidates are: John Fitzpatrick, labor party; John M Collins, socialist, and Adolph Carm socialist labor. Besides the mayor 35 aldermen and other municipal of ficers are to be elected.
 Mayor Thompson, elected four years ago over Sweitzer by 14S,000 has been assailed by his opponents on his war record. and also as a servant of public utilities, which he denied; the public utility favoritism has been the princi- pal charge also against SweitZer, and both he and Thompson have beer charged by Hoyne with being machine candidates.

Discuss Reparation

PARIS, March 29-By the Associ- ated Press)-After most of the day in conference with the three premiers, President Wilson late this afternoon spent some time in a discussion with Thomas Lamont and Norman Davis, members of the supreme economic council and the financial advisers of the American delegation regarding preparations.

 The council of four has also given fersh consideration to the question of the Sarre Valley, and it is believed that the council virtually has settled upon a plan to permit Germany to retain political sovereignty while France will be given economic control of the mineral resources in that sec tion for a limited time, supposedly based upon a time allowance for the settlement of indemnity.

Russ Ambassador to U. S. Explains Movement Is Like Man with Fever = Must Be Treated with Food, Clothing, Etc. = Start on German Bolshev- ism

PARIS, March 29-(By the Associat- ed Press) -'Bolshevism is not politi- cal movement; it is a social disease, and must be treated as such" said Boris Bakhmeteff. Russian ambassador to the United States today. in discuss ing the efforts to check bolshevism.
 All middle Europe is like man With a fever" he continued.
 Before the disease can be treated the temper must be reduced, and the only way to do that is by supplying food, clothing. medicines and other things necessary to make life normal. And, in my opinion, German bolshevism should be fought before that in other countries by such treatment.
 The world is threatened with lapse into barbarism comparative with that in the fourth century, when Greek and Roman civilizations were submerged. In Russia today practically the entire population is involved. Hunger and suffering have rendered the Russians forgetful of the old standards and they are indifferent to fate. The hopeless ness can be overcome only by food and manufactured articles for bodily com fort"

Military Situation Not Bad

 Commenting on the military situa- ton in Russia, M. Bakhmeteff said a summary of the Russian committees dispatches from Archangel, Omsk, Ku- ban, the Donand Ukraine showed con- ditions favorable everywhere except in the southeast, where the Don Cossacks were much affected by the announce ment of the proposed Prinkipo confer ence, and virtually gave up the strug- gle for a short time. saying that it was impossible to fight the bolsheyiki the allies gave such recognition.
 However, the Don Cossacks had been reorganized under General Bogaewsky, who had succeeded General Krasnoff, and were at the present time co-oper- ating with General Dekenin. M. Bakh- meteff expressed the belief that the entire Ukraine would fall under bol- sheviki control, accepting Odessa. He said this was inevitable, as Ukraine had not settled her agrarian troubles, and Petlura, the Ukraine peasant lead CT, is far from being well organized.
 kolchak Forces Promising Much
 On the Perm and Ufa front. in NJ. Bakhmeteff's opinion, the Kolchak forces are in excellent condition and will doubtless advance rapidly into bol- Shevik1 territory when the extremely cold weather abates and the spring floods subside late in May. The KoI- chak government is able to collect taxes and, said the ambassador, many other evidences of confidence in Kol- chak's democracy are being displayed among all classes.
 The Russian commission. according to NJ. KalIhmeteff, has learned that practically all the money for the spar tacan movement in Germany was sup piled by the Russian bolsheviki leaders Lenine and Trotzky, who shipped the government gold, silver and platinum reserve to Stockholm, where it was ex- changed for German marks.
 Reports from General Dekenin al | Ekaterinodar indicate that his troops | have been suffering terribly from lack of anaesthetics and medical supplies 1 of all sorts. Amputations have beer made without anaethetsia, the soldier: undergoing great hardships in the hos l pitals. The Russian commission has i been negotiating with the American Red Cross. which has promised to re. lieve the situation.
