land; Boise to Hear Inside"

With announcement that American
troops are to be withdrawn from Rus
sla at the earliest possible time, the
lecture by Princess Radziwill on con-
ditions in Russia, at the Pinney to-
night, comes at a most opportune mo-
ment. For events the past two years
in the Muscovite country have been
yelled in tragic unknown, with death
playing the lead role under the brutal
sway Of Lenine and his coterie of muir
derers.
Princess Radziwill will, in a way, lift
this veil in her talk and tell of the
"things behind" in her native land. OF
the late car and his court: Rasputin
the evil monk; Of Kerensky, who fell
from power for welding the scepter
too gently; of these historic figures
Princess Radziwill will speak, for she
has been intimately connected with
these personages. makers of history in
their Inflated country.
Reared in elegance and associate Of
the most brilliant minds in Russia and
Germany. Princess Radziwill was ac-
corded an opportunity first hand to
study events that led to the world
aflame. She knew Of the ignoble am
billions Of the former kaiser; Of his
plots to embroil the world in strife;
of the tottering monarchy in russia,
over which the weak minded emperor
reigned in sublime bliss, never iealiz-
Ing his loosened grip on his millions
of subjects until the crash sent him to
exile and death.
Princess Radziwill is an author, lin
gulst and lecturer of wide distinction,
with life history which makes her APP
pearance upon the stage Of America at
this time the most pertinent offering
of years. She speaks fluently in Rus
sian. English. German. Swedish and
French and has won honors in those
countries en- tour speaking.

SOUTHNEEDSLA
Farm Workers Shortage Due
to Negroes Transfer to North
for Higher Wage.

Washington. Feb. 19.-The south
will face serious shortage in agri-
cultural labor during the coming sea-
son. according to present indications
officials of the federal employment
service stated today.
The reason for this shortage, while
other sections of the country are over
flowing with labor, is that majority
of the negroes who shouldered gun
are refusing to 60 back to the cotton
fields. The lure Of higher wages In
the northern industrial centers Is at
tracing them, although there Is al
ready an over-supply Of labor in these
places. Many others came north be-
cause Of the high wages paid for war
work.

he was elected to the chamber OF dep

British Egyptian campaign. He was
accused of taking British gold for let

lost his seat in the chamber
THEN "coMES BACK"
For 10 years Clemenceau's adver-
saries thought him politically dead, but
he was merely preparing for re-entry
into the arena. He founded two or
three newspapers, wrote several books
and then quite suddenly came back"
This time he vas elected to the senate.
Clemenceau was premier at the time
of the Casablanca affair between
France and Germany, when, for a time,
! war appeared to be inevitable. Ger

Germany and everybody knew, was in
no position for war. But Clemenceau
sent back this message:

Washington, Feb. 19.-Lack of ships

ed In congested conditions at several
important ports on both Atlantic and
Pacific coasts, according to reports
made public by the United States ship

cargo await vessels to move it. and
the amount s increasing daily, reports
to the shipping board show.
Chairman Hurley is comforting again
today with war and navy department
officials relative to releasing more
ships. The situation Is acute, Hurley
said.
The war department is employing
approximately 100000 tons of ship

Transporting traffic. This represents
exactly half Of the tonnage used when
war transportation was at its peak,
Hurley said.

The committee on responsibility for

Local Boxing Association
Invites Women to Shows;
Will Reserve Seat Section

Boxing has taken it's place among
the other great American sports such
as football, baseball and basketball
and bids fair to outrank them all.
AS such it is no longer exclusively a
mans sport. Women are in many
cities showing as keen an interest
as are men folks and shows usually
find a generous sprinkling OF the
gentler sex in the audience. Dave
Mcconnell, business manager of the
Harrisburg Boxing Association, real
ICES the conditions and he mas ar
ranged to have one section of the
Chestnut Street Auditorium reserv-
ed for women and their escorts on
Thursday evening, November 10,
when the Harrisburg Boxing Asso-
citation will hold it's next entertain
ment there.
The local association has already
conducted two shows here this fall
and the splendid manner in which
they were conducted, assures first
class accommodations for the wo-
men. What looks like the best hill
yet offered will be presented next
Thursday night.
