NOT OBSERVING
 TERMS OF TRUCE

Warsaw, Wednesday Feb. 19-(By the Associated Press)-The Germans are reported not to be observing the provisions of the armistice agreement as to fighting in Posen, and 1t is said
 that skirmishes have occurred at scattered points. The morale of the Germans is declared to be low as is
 evidenced by the reported sale of a battery of artillery to a Polish Cath
 ollie priest, the price being 5000 marks
 Colonel HaI1er. Polish chief of staff, announces in a bulletin that
 there is military activity all along the Galician frontier. Attacks by Ukrai- nian troops have been repulsed in
 that region. In Ldthuania, bands of
 Bolsheviki have been routed and 80 prisoners taken.
 Two million pounds of flour have arrived here from Danzig, coming through by railroad in record time
 without interference form the Ger mans. It will be distributed in this city, the Lodz mining district, CraCow and Lemberg. American officers will
 supervise sales of the flour and will prevent speculators from getting 1t. Doubtless there are large quanti- cies of food in Poland, especially of potatoes meat and. sugar, but prices are prohibdttve for the poor. Across the frontier in Posen as well as in East Prussia, the best hotels charge five marks for meals, as compared with 30 and 50 marks here. Al though the Warsaw hotels have been l full of paying Russian refugees all i winter, they have been raising prices
 since the arrival of the Allied mis- sions. They now charge five marks a day for q room, and restaurant ! prices are 50 per cent. higher than 1 in Vienna or Berlin. Shoes which i cost 400 or 500 marks here can be l obtained in East Prussia for 75 i marks.

FISH POOR
 MANS FOOD

Fish is the poor mans food in the United States, an authority stated some time since. Indications are that fish will be the food of the majority of the people of the country during the reconstruction period. It Is un fortunate that this critical period should come when the fisheries them selves are in q state of reconstruction and adjustment. However, a general lowering of fish prices during the past fortnight lends hope to the situation.
 The chief problem before the fish cries just now Is to get their product to the poor man of the inland states who bids fair to become a strict vege- tartan, if this relief is not afforded him. Thanks to the rapid advances made in the science of refrigeration in the last few years, the problem of supplying the inland inhabitants with seafood is now one only of transpor- tation and education.
 Wholesale fish dealers have found the answer to the transportation prob lem is the carload shipment. The cheapest and most satisfactory way to ship fish Is in carload lots. Before this, however, can attain it's full value, there must be established a system of community buying in connection with It. There are very few fish dealers in the country, if any, able to handle a carload of fish unaided. But if all the retailers of any given area band to- gether, they can easily dispose of a carload. This would lead in time to the establishment of distributing g points to which carloads of seafood would be shipped at regular inter vals. This plan, long advocated by William K Beardsley, former man ager of the New England Fish Ex- change, would bring to the store of the inland retailer nsh at a price very slightly higher than that prevailing in Boston.
 Experiments are being made at the present time with carload shipments. The other problem, that of educating the inland public to the use of fish, can be solved only with the co-opera- tion of the people most concerned. whether they will learn readily or will follow the example of the coast wise populace and remain deaf as long as their pocketbooks permit re- IT aims to be seen.

firms, which recently employed so0o0 persons, is paying them 5,000,C00 crowns a week. It is asserted that this is tending toward the demoraliZation of the workmen who prefer to live upon state pay rather than to return to work.
 Many factories have been brought to a standstiIl owing to the lack of coal ana it is feared that flour mills may also be forced to shut down. The train service has been reduced to one train a day between Budapest and Vienna, the journey occupying sixteen hours instead of four.
 The Cabinet Ministers, who before the revolution received salaries of 25,G0O crowns, are now taking l0o,GV1 crowns. The number of Under-Secre- taries of State has been increased from 12 to T, each being paid 10000 crowns a year. Immense sums have been expended in payment to invalid ed soldiers. A plan was suggested by
 which the sum of 25,c00, 900 900 crowns would have covered all annual pen sions, but instead of adopting such a plan, the Ministry has spent 70,000,OGt crowns in 8 few weeks in temporary relief. with the result that the recip- tents are now clamoring for further help.

CLOTHING FOR sIBERIANs.

VladvoStok, Jan. 1O.---CCorrespond- ence of The Associated Press. )--- Twenty-Five freight cars carrying $41o, 600 worth of clothing to meet the most pressing needs of the Russian civilian population in Western Siberia has been sent from VladivoStol1 under the joint direction of the American Red Cross and the Russian Railway Service Corps.
 These supplies are intended for refugees in districts where the Red Cross is operating distributing agen- cies; but there is included a special lot of clothing and clothing materials for Russian employees of the Trans Siberian Railway. These men have stuck to their posts under most dis heartening circumstances and their devotion has encited a special recom- mendation for assistance from John T. Stevens, head of the Railway Ser vice Corps.
 The train carried seven cars of I1n- derwear, four of blankets five of cOlthing material, one car of sweat CTS, gloves and socks one car of chill dreI g clothing. a ear of hannelette. one of miscellaneous articles and sev- eral of drug and hospital supplies and provisions.

 conditions in Hungary have reached the stage where the only hope of the

Many of the former aris- tocrats have gone to their country homes and many others would like to go to Switzerland but are unable to obtain permission to leave the coun- try. The streets of Budapest are con- sidered unsafe after dark and wealthy persons employ soldiers to guard their homes.
