WAR IN SIBERIA
 HAS SOME THRILLS
Fighting in TraCkleSS Forests Not
 Most Advantageous

| Throughout the campaign in l Northern Russia where Anne erican
 soldiers have fought the Bolsheviki
 as comrSdes in a polyglot little army of British, French, Russians, Poles [ and elem ents of six other national ities, a correspondent of The Asso- 1 ciated Press, with headquarters at 1 Archangel, has forwarded frequent despatches reporting the progress of 1 the fighting. The correspondent now has sent by mail, several interesting articles narrating some of the re- markable phases of the campaign and giving Illuminating sidelights on the adventures of the Americans and their Allies in the far North. Sub joined is one of his letters:
 Archangel, March 20, Correspond ence of The Associated Press) .-The tabloid warfare that the American doughboys and a miscellaneous col lection of Allies have been waging against the Bolsheviki up in Aurora Borealis land since the landing of an Allied corporals guard at Archangel on August 8, has had most of the thrills of the big war in France, with a few pet perils all of it's own.
 Tn the summer, it was a game of bushwhacking boy scouting, hide and seek and Indian fighting in the swamps, with the added attraction of airplanes shrapnel, high explosives, trench mortars, gunboats and arm ored trains In winter when the ther- mom eter registers around 30 degrees below zero, it is som ething like an Eskimo tribal feud, the Eskimos be- ing equipped with all modern devices for putting their opponents out of the combat.
 The Allied North Russian expedi- tionary force whose backbone is the Tank doughboy, has been fighting during the winter against double, or triple or quadruple odds. These Tanks and Tommies and poilus and half a dozen varieties of Russians and Poles have been scattered out in thin col umns operating over a territory about as large as Germany and colder than Medicine Hat or Moose Jaw. There were seven or eight of these columns and they branched out like 8 palm leaf fan from it's handle, which is Archangel, stretching far and wide from the wastes of the Pechora river on the shores of the Arctic ocean not very far from the Siberian boundary, to the scarcely less frozen country of Omega bay, west of Archangel, where they connect with the Murmansk, or Kola force.
 Each of these columns has pene- trated inland, along railroad, high road. river or forest trail, into the territory of the Bolsheviki and, on most of them, Tanks have been at the far-front, where the trouble is thickest And, as most of the Amer jeans who have met John Bolshevik face to face will tell you, as trouble maker, John is active especially when he has one outn numbered and out gunned.

POLAND.

With all It's other difficult prob 1ems to meet, Poland is in addition, actively fighting Bolshevis1n not on 1y for its own sake but for the sake of tho world. The Pilsudski govern Inent remains stable and is worthy of the greatest respect It is making much progress in setting up natio- al and economic life for the new O- ish nation

 Every attempt on the part of the Polish aristocracy to better the con ditions of the Polish peasant was crushed by the great jealous powers which have enslaved Poland for one hundred and fifty years. The present Polish government recognizes as it's first duty a betterment of the con- ditions of the peasants and the up- building of a strong middle class
 At present Poland Is in need of food clothing and raw material and mach inery for her stripped and idle factor les Sixty per cent of her last har- vest was carried away by the Ger mans. Normally Poland is a self sustaining country as to food and with some help now she can stand on her own feet Since the middle of Feb ruary, about 100000 tons of Ameri- can foodstuffs have been sent into Poland

PHILIPPINES ARE GREAT FIELD FOR
 J. 5. INDUSTRY

Washington. May 2O.-''The Philip pine Islands offer vast field for the extension of American industry and commerce in the Far East. We well come American capital We believe in it. Our government is awake to the great need of the time"
 This was the reply today of Rafael Palma. vice president of the Philip pine Mission, when asked for a state ment relative to opportunities for the investment of American capital iu the Philippines. The statement is important, because it comes from one of the three foremost leaders of the party in power in the Philippines these three including Speaker Sergio Osmena, Senate President Manuel L. Quezon and Mir. Palma, who is Sec retary of the Interior of the Philip pines, and a member of the Philip pine Senate.
 The agricultural and commercial possibilities of the Philippines are all most linlitless." said MT. Palma. re- ferT!ng to the openings for both large and small American capitalists in the islands. 'Of the total area of 10000 square miles of rich tropical land only 14.0C0 square miles have been touched by the blow. The 100000 square miles remain in its primeval state just waiting the indus try of man to give up its mineral wealth or to produce bountiful crops of sugar. hemp, coconuts. rubber, lumber and all sorts of tropical raw materials. The Philippines can sus- taine-1 from the stalk of a plant which people. The valley of Cotabato alone can produce enough rice to feed the present population of the islands. The entire archipelago. through modern scientific cultivation, the development sing of its wonderful water powers and the development of its commerce, can be converted into a paradise.
 Manila hemp, the leading cordage fiber of the world, is produced only in the Philippines. This fiber is ob- tained from the stalk of paint which closely resembles the common ban ana, and is known in the islands as 'abaca.' The growing of hemp is one one of the most profitable lines Of agricultural investment in our coun- try.
 Sugar cane can be produced very cheap ply. and Is a fast growing indus try. offering great opportunities to investors. The coconut industry has developed into one of the most lucra- tive ones in the islands. The best rubber producing lands in the world may be obtained in the Philipplnes for few dollars per acrA TA~-iaaa

ROUNIANIA-

Besides being in the most desper- nte need of food now, Roumania will need outside assistance for some time to come becaNe she has lost prac- tically all of her seed and her next harvest thcrfore will be far below normal
 It is very difficult to distribute food and clothing in Roumania owing to the disastrous breakup of her transportation systems
 Tho Roumanian government re- mains stable beyond anticipation. When Hungary was captured by the Bolshevists 1t was expected that Rou- mania would be the next country op- eu to anarchy. With the failure of the Bolshevists to keep a. strong hand fin Hungary however, and with the arrival of American food and cloth ing, Roumania's peril fin being open Q anarchy has apparently passed

GERMAN AUSTRIA.

There is undoubtedly no hungrier capital in the world than Vienna. Nearly all of the rich farm lands that formerly supported this city have gone to the new stations of Hungary and Czecho Slovakia- Whereas before the war, her capital, Vienna, was the spending capital of fifty million peo- pie, she is now the capital of only nine to ten millions Vienna faces a sad future. Owing to the chaotic pol itical condition of Hungary 1t Is very difficult to distribute food. What food she gets from America she gets through the ordinary commercial channels. It Is recommended by the Supreme Allied War Council that neither she nor Germany should give this food to her population who are wilfully unemployed.

JUGO-SLANIA.

Serbia, which is included in Jugo Slavia is undoubtedly the country most ravaged by war Besides It's losses in food supplies, raw mater ials, and the losses incurred by the demolition of factories and all trans portation systems, Serbia has lost more of her civil population than any other corntry during the war. MT Hoover,s as Director General lrof Gne American Relief Administra- Aon, has directed each of the states in the old Austrian Empire to contri- bute a quota of locomotives and cars to enable the American Relief Admin iStration to set up a regular train service for distributing food through out Serbia
 The newly organized government of Jugo Slavia seems stable.

CZECHO-SIOVAKIA.

Czech ho-Slovakia is better off than many of the countries because she is richly endowed by nature with natur- al resources of food and raw mater ials. Fortunately, she has every pros pect of having a good harvest U,ts year so that with outside help until the crop is harvested, she can well look out for herself.
 The government of Czecho-Sl kia has succeeded remarkably well in holding the people together. It gives every promise of enduring suc- cess for the new nation.

TURKEY.

MT.

He believes that this re- sumption of commerce will be &C., companied by a better stabilization of local currency which will do as much to bring relief to the distressed population of Turkey as any impor- tation of food

The Health OF The
Future Generations

Depends to great extent upon the
care the mothers of our country give
to their health. The subject of good
health has never been given one half
the attention on the part of the house
wife that it should be given. 1t seems
to have been the general idea that the
only thing worth while was to perform
the household duties in the most eco
nomical way, that a penny saved is a
penny earned. This has in many in
stances led to sheer extravaganza, in
that the housewife has often done her
work in a way that in reality repre-
sented the most expensive way of do
ing it, not only from the standpoint
of dollars and cents but in the disas-
trous effect it has upon her health as
well.
No woman can afford, if she has the
proper interest in her family, to break
down her, health, wreck her nerves
and shatter her disposition trying to
save few pennies doing her own fam
lily washing. The woman who does this
work at home is not ec0nomizing, she
lis creating unnecessary expense alnd
at the same time getting the work
done in way which is inferior to the
way she may have it done at the laun-
dry.
Its rank foolishness for any house
wife to flatter herself into believing
that she can do her own family wash
better than the laundry can do it, she
might just as well contend that she
can Light her own home better with the
old kerosene lamp than she can with
electricity. If the laundry was not full
FILLING its mission it would be retro
crossing instead of progressing, as il
is at the present time, and as it is
going to continue Ito do in the future
If il was more expensive to have the
family washing done at the laundry
than it is to do it at home it is hardly
reasonable to assume that people with
no more money than you have would
continue to send the family washing
to the laundry.
Stop doing the family washing at
home and send it to the laundry. In do
ing this you will not only save money
but you win conserve your good health
and have the clothes returned each
week in much better condition than
they would be were you to do this
work at home.
We do the work several ways. Semi
finished four to ten cents per pound.

NO STRIKE OF JEROME MINERS

Jerome, Ariz, Feb. 10.-There will
be no strike of miners in the Verde
copper district over the reduction of
wages by the mining companies.
That was made practically certain
today when the Central Labor Council
announced the men would remain at
work under protest pending the arriv-
al of federal mediator.
The statement said the union s CON
tract with the government stands good
until peace is signed and the men will
abide by it,.
Everything was quiet here today and
the mines were operating at 80 per
cent of their usual capacity.
