ARMY CONDITIONS
 IN RUSSIA BETTER
Proper Discipline is Believed to Pre- vail Among Soldiers, Accord-
 ing to Report.

Washington, April 15.--Brig. Gen. Wilds F. Richardson. the new com mander of the American forces in North Russia, has reported the miH- tary situation satisfactory in his first official dispatch since landing on the Murmansl1 coast.
 The message sent to General Persh- ing and relayed by him today to the war departm ent, was dated April 13, or about two weeks after the mutt nous conduct of Company I, 339th In fantry, which refused to go to the front from Archangel.
 It is assumed here that a. satisfac- tory military situation means that the proper discipline prevails among the American troops generally. General Richardson reported the occupation on April Ii, of Uros Ozero by Q force of Russians supported by the Allies. As a result of this action 46 of the enemy were killed, 9 wounded and 26 taken prisoner, two field guns. one machine gun and 1000 shells being captured. The Allied casualties com prised one Canadian soldier killed and one Frenchman wounded.

BILL TO GIVE WOMEN RIGHT TO
 CAST BALLOT AT PRESIDENTIAL
 ELECTION REPORTED FAVORABLY
CITY MUST RAISE
 2 MILLION IN LOAN
New Britain's Victory Loan Quota is Fixed at 2,3S3, 3,OOO-Three-Tourth
 of Last Amount.

New Britain is making preparations TOT the Victory Liberty loan drive winch will start the latter part of this month. It is expected that the or ganlzatlon for the drive will be the same as for former Liberty loan cam- paigns in this city.
 A. J. Siopcr of the New Britain National bank stated this noon that the clty'S quota in the coming loar drive will be three-fourths of it's quota in the last drive. The amount of the last drives quota for this city was $3,173,O 900, making the quota for the Victory loan for this city the amount of $2,3S3,500
 The bonds of the fifth issue will bear four and three-fourths per cent interest. This is one-fourth of one per cent. more than on the most fully tax exempt bonds, and one-half of one per cent. on the less exempt The issues are also interconvertible, thus giving all subscribers their choice. A welcome surprise to the city is that the amount wanted has been reduced and consequently the city's share will be smaller than was at first anticipat- ed. When the city'S quota is reached no further bonds can be subscribed for, according to rules from Washing ton to the effect that the loan will not be oversuhScribed

 May Be Necessary.

Washington April 15.-Holding the New England Telephone strike with out justification, the Post Office De- partment today instructed the manager of tho company at Boston to replace the strikers or take any other steps necessary to maintain service unimpaircd
 Officials said the department had expressed WilIin 5ness to bargain col lectively with the employees, it's posi- tion on that question being 'entirely harm onious'' with principles laid down by the War Labor Board.

BLAME TRAIN CREW
 FOR FATAL WRECK
Bureau of Safety Reports on New York Central Crash Which
 Claimed Fl Deaths.

Washington April 15.--A rear-end collision between two New York Gen.
 tral passenger trains near South By
 ron, N. Y, last January, in which 21
 persons. were killed and 71 injured,
 was due solely to human error, ac-
 cording to a report today by the bu-
 reau of safety to the interstate com
 merce commission.
 The accident was caused by the
 failure of Enginenan Friedler of train No. II properly to observe the auto matic signal indications,' the report said: "A contributing cause was the
 failure of F7lagman Groves to go back
 a sufficient distance properly to pro-
 tect his train and to display lighted
 fuses as required by rule.'' Eng1neman Friedlich in January. 1906, was dismissed for using the
 main track without flag pointers. He was relnstated in November of the same year,
 ''The evidence indicates" said the report, that all of the signal appli- ances intended to prevent an accid dent of this character worked properlv. 1 its cause being solely due to human 1 error.
 The record of railroad accidents during the last few years" the re- port said, shows that a comparative | ly large percentage of the most seri- ous and disastrous railroad accidents have occurred from the failure of enginemen to observe speed and auto matic block signals.
 ''The startling recurrence of acci- dents resulting from the fault of en- ginemen to observe and heed signal indications calls attention with great emphasis to the fact that the sense of responsibility for safety of their trains which is almost universally felt by en- l ginemen, is not always effective with present safeguards to prevent colli- sions.'

Consider ItaIy's Claim.

tOnSIuer Itaiy'S GlhIDl M A statement given out by President Wilson at Paris last night indicated that the treaty with Germany would be completed in 9. very short times and that, in the meanwhile, the proI5- lems involved in the settlement of the conflicting claims of Italy and Jugo- Slavia to territory on the eastern shore of the Adriatic would be given preferential consideration.
 It is probable that the allies of Germany will be called to Versailles almost immediately after the German delegates have received the allied terms and have passed upon them. What Germans Must Pay. Germany, by the terms of the treaty, will be called upon to pay 100, ,0OO,0 100000 gold marks, which at the pre-war rate of exchange would be equivalent to $23, 82O,O0O,OOO Of this immense sum, there must be paid within two years an amount equal to $4,764, 900, 900 and during the next 30 years twice that sum must be turned over to the Allies. A commis- sion will determine when and how the remainder of the reparation fund must be paid.
 Frontier Question Settled. There seems to be an agreement on the vexing problem of the Franco German frontier. It is said that the Germans will be compelled to with draw all troops from a zone 25 miles wide on the right bank of that rSver until the first instalment of the in- demnity is paid. Indemnity Not Apportioned. While the work of fixing the ] 5 Fsov~ many to the allied and associated mains a further task of apporttoning the indemnity funds among the allied nations.
 It is indicated that Trance and England will receive a major portion. 1t being estimated that S5 per cent. of the total will go to them. Out of the remainder the smaller powers will be given their shares, and that there will be some dissatisfaction on their part is expected.
 Executions Are Reported.
 Tn Hungary, where a Soviet repub lie has been in power for several weeks. having been established vtr- tualIy without bloodshed, the execu- tions of Archduke Joseph of Austria, pr. Alexander Weikcrle, former pre- mier, and Baron Joseph Szteprenyi, minister of commerce, is reported. Confirmation is lacking.
 Disorder Continues In Germany.
 Riotous disorders continue in Ger many. In Bavaria there are indica- tions that the government led by Pre- mier Hoffman, successor to Kurt Fis- ner, is gaining ground and that the Soviet regime, which threatened to take over complete charge, may be busted. Tn Berlin there have been riots and troops have fired on street, vendors who are alleged to have beene

18th Congress of Daughters of Ameri- can Revolution Being Held al Washington Advocates New Fed eraI Statute.

Washington, April 15.--Enact- ment of a Federal Law to prevent general misuse and descretiOn of the American flag was advocated in a re port today to the 2Sth congress of the Daughters of the American Rev olution, in session at Continental hall here.
 Need of Federal Law. Mrs. James P. Hume, state regent of Wisconsin, chairman of the flag committee, reported that the evil had increased very greatly since the armistice and that while it was due largely to ignorance, state laws were so conflicting and so lax that a Fed eraI statute was needed to assure proper regard for the national emblem by all classes.
 Flag Frequently Misused.
 The most frequent misuse of the flag. Mrs Hume declared, was bN theaters, magazines and in cartoons and posters. In the latter days ot the war and particularly since the armistice and with the returnine home of troops, the public. she said had used the flag for costumes an( decorations in such way as to arouse the resentment of patriotic organi. zationS.
 Urges School Campaign.
 A campaign in schools was urged and all the daughters were asked tC cooperate in the efforts to enlighteI the offending elements.
 A resolution endorsing the League of Nations was presented. It went to the committee without comment on the floor.
