times sacrifices friendships that are
priceless. He is forced to forget him

goes after stuff that does not interest

a duty. A
Sometimes he is met by a naughty

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. S.-In- dustrial Workers of the World had been advised to plant noXious weeds in California fields, w. Dennis. formerly a member of the organization. now manager of a manufacturing plant at Berkeley, California, testified today. as a witness for the prosecution at the trial of forty-six industrial workers and others charged with acts of sabo tage throughout the west.
 This practice was suggested, Dennis said, as means to offset the prosecu- tion of "Blackie" Ford and H. D. Suhr, charged in 1913, with the murder of District Attorney E. T. Manwell at Wheatland, California, and subse- quently sentenced to life imprison ment.
 Testimony by which the prosecution would tend to show the connection of Theodora Pollock, one of the defend ants. with the campaign to free Jo- seph Hilstrom, convicted in June, 1914, in Utah of murderg was blocked when Judge Frank Rudkin sustained the objection of Miss Pollock's attor- ney.
 F. A. Marr. who said he had been employed in 1914 as investigator for the T. Clemens, Horst company. owners | of the Wheatland hop yards, where the riots occurred in which Maxwell was killed, related that he had listened | to conversations in which some of the | defendants had discussed cutting guide
 wires that supported the hop vines
 and had talked over means of destroy l ing the kilns. Marr said he had oc-
 cupied a room at local hotel, ad-
 joining one occupied by workers oi | the Ford and Suhr Defense League

POLISH WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIGHTING
 BOLSHEv|SM NOB[y

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.--Stories of terrible conditions in Poland have been related to the Polish national com mittee at Paris by couriers from Po- land, according to information re- ceived today at the Polish bureau here.
 Murder and rapine are filling the land,' said a statement by the bu- reau, "and the social disorders con- sequent upon bolshevism in the ter ritory, have become secondary to the stories of bodily tortures, which are being inflicted on the people. Faced with constant appeals for aid from the Polish populations in Wilma, Grodno and Lemberg. the Polish military com mand in Warsaw finds itself in the position. where, with the scant mili- tary force and relatively small quan- titles of military supplies, it is obliged to ignore the demand of many. cast ing it's strength where the chances Of doing good are most pronounced. Meanwhile. throughout the country side, in the entire area northeast and south of Warsaw, Russian prisoners of war, released by Germany, and the German soldiers making their way back into Germany, are spreading a reign of terror in the various hamletS
 where they, are communicating the fragments of food. the clothes and the | bedding of the people. Jews and gen. tiles are suffering alike in this terrible crusade, which is being waged against | them.
 "The tragic stories which the cour- l iers have brought are frightened only | by the reports of the magnificent hero- | ism, which not only the polish women
 but even the Polish children are show | ing in standing guard with their mer 1 folks in repelling the invaders.
 "The terrible feature of the situation
 is that as yet no intimation has beer given by the representatives of the
 allied powers. that actual military ait is to be expected.
 | Reports on the food situation ir
 Poland are equally disturbing. While
 surveys made are naturally of a mos cursory nature, the final report give:
 it as the opinion of the Polish official. 1 in Paris, that there are great area!
 of the country where hardly more thar

DANIELS DEMANDS
 PHILADELPHIA MUST SUPPRESS ITS EVILS

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.--Secretary Daniels wrote Mayor Smith of Phila- delphia today, that unless the munich pal authorities immediately improve vice conditions in Philadelphia, steps will be taken by the government ito give the needed protection to the thousands of young men in uniform who must either visit Philadelphia or be denied the liberty which ought to be given them"
 MT. Daniels action was taken after a conference with Secretary Baker, at which was considered a report from Lieutenant Colonel Charles E. Hatch, the navy representative at Philadel-
 phia, showing that vice conditions were as bad now as they were last spring, when Mayor Smith began a crusade at the request of the naval secretary.
 After referring to the previous cor respondeuce and the improvement eff fected by the Philadelphia authorities Secretary Daniels letter said: T am informed that conditions ir Philadelphia have reverted, so far as the protection as to sailors and soldiers in concerned, to the old conditions l which prevailed prior to my communi- cation to you last spring, and tha the change of your policy was made in violation of the promise which vat (Continued on Page Two)
