Austin, Tex, Jan. 22.-The prohi- bition amendment to the Texas con- stitution went to the governor for his signature today, when the Senate passed finally House joint resoiu- tion providing for a bone dry amend ment. May 24 is set as date for submission

American Positions Are Under Heavy Artillery Fire by Eenemy Too Cold Fer
 Infantry,

Arehangel, Tuesday, Jan. a1.-Bol- shevlki troops are heavily shelling the farthest south positions of the Ameri- can and Russian armies at Ust Pad enga, on the Waga river. 30 miles south of Shenkursk. They also are showing considerably activity west of |Shenkursk on the Tania river. It has been impossible to determine whether the attack will develop on a greater scale. The enemy has mobolized the peasants in the vicinity of Vilsk and apparently in the Shenkursk sector.
 Sunday the enemy, under cover of heavy bombardment, attacked with infantry the American and Russian positions at Ust Padenga. The allied outpost withdrew, but the Bolshevik attack on the main positions was re- pulsed with heavy losses.
 There has been no infantry action since, though there has been constant rain of shells on the village. The American army is vigorously reply ing.
 Airman Defes Cold.
 Yesterday, flying in a temperature of 16 degrees below zero, one Amer ican airplane bombed the enemy and secured direct hits on important Bol- shevik positions.
 The fighting is going on in cold, clear weather, but the temperature is so low that it is difficult for the infantrymen to remain in the open any length of time.
 American positions on the Vologda railway With the exception of few days early in January, when the allied forces attempted to improve their positions southwest on the Kad- ish railroad, and on the Omega from tier, the offensive on the Archangel front for several months has been in the hands of the BolsheViki. They are boasting that in the vicinity of
 Kadish they will ''drive the allies
 into the White sea in March, l Along the Murmansk railway front the Russian and allied troops yester- day raided the village Of Rugozerka,
 50 miles southeast of Soroka, where they either killed or captured all the
 Bolshevik garrison. They took 110
 rifles and other equipment and nu-
 merous documents The allied forces
 did not suffer single casualty.
