To Two New York Heroes
Corporal Kenneth McCann and
Frank Schultz Get
u. S. Crosses

Among those named yesterday as
winners Of the Distinguished Service
Cross were Corporal Kenneth. McCann,
son of Mrs. William j. McCann, OF 33
Beekman Place, and Frank Schulz, of
the 302d Engineers, who lives at 1925
Castleton Avenue, West New Brighton,
Staten Island.
IN letter to his mother, Corporal
McCann advised her not to take the
recommendation for the award "too
seriously" as in his opinion several
others had done as much as he. He
worked for seventy-two hours consecu-
lively as signalman under Heavy fire
1T Mount KENNEL the last of August.
He is with the 1920 Field Signal Bat
TALON, 9th Division and is twenty
years old.
Schulz and another man were cut off
from their companions while on night
patrol. They spent five days behind
the German lines, declining to leave a
wounded American soldier whom they
came across. After they had been
forty eight hours without water they
rushed a German machine gun crew,
ran the gantlet of other gun emplace-
ments, swan a river and escaped.
bringing their wounded comrade with
them.

U. 5. Attorney Takes Up
Bolshevik Talks Here
Federal Investigation Is Begun
Following Speeches at
Brownsville Forum

Drastic action is likely to follow the
meeting of the Brownsville Civic
Forum, held in Public School 81, at
Stone and Gleamore avenues, Browns
vile, Sunday night. The principal
speaker was Albert Rhys Williams. who
is said to hold commission from the
soviet government in Russia to spread
its propaganda in this country 1t was
the things he had said regarding
Americas action in Russia that have
caused all the trouble.
Arthur S. Somers. president of the
Board of Education, has pomised an in
vestigation and declared yesterday that
he was considering putting a stop to
future meetings of the Forum. The
police and Federal authorities. both of
whom had representatives in the school
building Sunday, are inclined to take
steps, not only to prevent a similar oc-
currence, but possibly to take action
regarding the Sunday night speech.
United States District Attorney Mel
vile u. France. of Brooklyn, sent for
an authenticated report OF what Will
Jams said. He declared he would pro-
ceed against Williams at once if he
found he had violated the provisions of
the espionage act.

"The soviet governments in Petro-

rortant article of food in Russia to-
day. The landlords receive one-eighth

The officers also declared that the
Rolsheyiki had established throughout
their spheres of power in Russia an
espionage system inferior to none in
the world
officers left Petrograd, butter cost 12O
rubles a pound; horseaesh, and 10
rubles; fresh pork, 2S rubles. A suit
of clothes cost in the neighborhood of
$500 rubles, while 800 rubles were
paid for boots.
"The tragedy of the former Russian
nobility" said one of the officers, "is
frightful. The old families toward the
latter end got along by selling their
Jewels to foreigners, and are living on
the money now. All foreigners have
left Russia and there is no one to sell

Spurtucarl Leaders
Conclude Arnlistice
" ith the Government

LONDON Jan. r. - Government
troops numbering $4,000 arrived in
Berlin Saturday. but, with the strength
ening of its military forces, the Cab
met is reported to be losing it's pol;ti-
cal influence among the masses
Twenty eight mass meetings were
planned for yesterday at Berlin for the
purpose of offsetting this trend. These
meetings, which were to be addressed
by ministers and party leaders, were
expected to lead to a renewal of the
collisions with the Spartacidcs.
Spartacidc leaders had been able To
conclude an armistice on fairly even
terms. 1t was stipulated that govern
n'cnt troops should not be reinforce d
during the truce nor resume operations
without half days notice.
Inc capture OF the "Vorwaerts'
building is considered important stra-
1eglcally: The plant is not in the
group, o. other newspaper Offices. but
hes deeper into Spartacidc territory
between the principal news spapcr quar-
ter and the Spartacide HEADQUARTERS at
the Central Police Station. Its capture
therefore, interferes with the Sparta
eide communications with outlyino do
tachments.
The "Vorwaerts building was badly
damaged by artillery fire and was com,

lenders before they surrendered

For Citizens Help
I'm Saving Dynasty
Proclamation Calls for
United Action in Eco
nomic Alliance with En-
tente; Marie Ready to Go

LONDON, Jan. 13-The LuXemburs
government has issued proclamation
appealing to the people against the
movement for the establishment OF a
republic and urging support of the
dynasty. The proclamation announces
that Grand Duchess Marie has declared
her readiness to abdicate if her reten-
tion of the throne would be an obstacle
to the decision taken by the govern
mcnt to seek an economic alliance with
the Entente powers, especially France
and Belgium. The text of the procla-
nation, which was issued on Friday,
follows:
Fellow Citizens: A revolutionary
movement, aiming at the proclamation
of a republic and the downfall of the
dynasty, was set afcot yesterday in the
capital. Disorders, which are the in
evltablc consequence OF this unhealthy
agitation, are seriously compromising
the national honor and the indepen-
dence of the grand duchy at the most
critical hour of its history.
THE government, therefore, appeals
to all citizens who desire to safeguard
these precious possessions to help ia
the utmost in the maintenance of law
and order. This is more important be
cause the country is about to make
decisions OF the highest Importance
which will largely affect its future and
economic prosperity
1.-The government has decided to seek
an economic alliance with the Entente
powers, especially France and Belgium.
Necessary negotiations will be begun
shortly. Recent events having estab-
ished the fact that the presence of a
sovereign might, under certain circum-
stances, prove an obstacle to the nego-
tiations, the Grand Duchess, bealous of
her country's interests, has declared
her readiness to renounce the throne
and instructed the government to con-
slider measures to guarantee the inde-
pendence of the country and the pres
crvation of the dynasty
''Ihe government will get in imme di-
ate touch with the Chamber Of Deputies
with a view to discharging its duties.
1T is convinced that the preservation Of
the dynasty constitutes at the present
moment necessary guarantee of ma
tional autonomy and that it does not
represent any obstacle to the realiza-
tion of the desired economic union.
"Highest interests Of state demand
that we should not plunge the countr,,
INTO the deadly throcs Of anarchy. This
is also the desire Of vast majority of
our fellow citizens. Any decision rel
atlvc to the dynastic questions and all
questions affecting the fate of the
country must be reserved until the will
