German Map Makers
Keep Old Boundaries
In the School Books

Berlin, Oct HERMAN ma
publishers have entered into
SOLEMN pact to preserve all pre-war
boundary lines as well as the old
German place names in every fu-
tue map of Germany. The idea, IN.
spired by German nationalists and
propagated by two big map pub
fishers of Berlin (Carl Flemming
and c. 7. Weskott), is to keep the
former greatness of the crumbled
empire constantly before the eye of
Germany's youth, lest the thought
of revenge perish.
Germany's children thus are to be
taught consistently that Alsace-
Lorraine, Schleswig- Holstein. Po-
sen. Silesia and the coded portions
of east and west Prussia are still
integral parts of the German EN-
pire, but temporarily occupied by
predatory adversaries from whose
talons they must be wrested.

London.--As one surveys the map,
he truth becomes more and more OBJ
vious that the various sectors In Eu-
rope which present entirely chaotic
conditions are increasing In numbers
instead Of decreasing. Just at present
Poland looms large. Wilma, Lemburg
and Warsaw rlvet attention one day
and Reval and Riga the next.
The fact Is. the bolshevists. having
decided to enlarge their sphere Of
control, have declared war upon the
world at large. This doubtful situa-
tion arises from the fact that boil
shevism is a state OF mind rather than
a state Of territory also from the fur
Their feet that there are hundreds OF
thousands Of men In Russia who must
either Join the bolshevist forces or
starve or freeze.
The main question now Is whether
bolshevist aggression will stop at the
old German eastern frontier. How
far bolshevist thought already has
penetrated eastern Germany It is i'm.
possible to say. Where and when will
the allies and America have to meet
the bolshevist advanced forces? Po-
land is one Of President Wilson's IA
points. What shall the allies and
America do about II
II can be readily perceived that
such q situation has a direct and ar
resting effect upon such large ques-
lions as those of rehabilitation, food

others.

DESPERATE FIGHT

AMERICAN TROOPS ENGAGE IN
SEVERAL BATTLES WITH
THE BoLSHEviki.
SNOW TWO T0F0URFEET DEEP
Hot Artillery Fire Forces the Amer,-
cans to Withdraw temporarily from
Villages Occupied by Them.

With the American Army on the
Dwina-Amcrican troops fighting des-
perately near Kadish, have driven
back bolskcvik troops which made an
advance there. The bolshevists also
launched attacks On the Omega sector
and bombarded the allied front. The
Americans came into battle along the
Petrograd road and In the frozen
swamps that border It. The battle
was fought in snow from two to four
feet in depth.
American forces captured Kadish
after a display Of gallantry that evoked
the admiration OF the allied comman-
ders. Special care has been taken OF
the American wounded and the body
OF AN American officer was taken back
100 miles by sledge and then shipped
to Archangel fer burial. There were
some casualties, but they were small
in comparison TO those inflicted upon
the enomy.
On Tuesday. the bolshevists opened
terrific fire from three and six-inch
guns and launched q counter.attack
against the buildings held by the Am.
orleans in Kadish. So hot was the ar
tillery fire that the Americans were
withdrawn temporarily from the VII
lage The line. however. was not
taken back very far and the new po--
stions were firmly held. The enemy
did not occupy Kadish because the.
barrage fire from the Americans guns
made the place untenable. Shells
falling on the frozen ground spread
their zones OF destruction twice as
far as they would under normal con-
ditions. Later, under the protection
Of artillery fire, American detach-
ments again swept forward and reoc-
cupied the town. The men engaged in
the advance were from infantry and
trench mortar units.
