RED CROSS TO INSTRUCT
THE FRENCH CIVILIANS
Special Arrangements Made BY Red
Cross to Instruct French Against
Preyentable Disease.

Special arrangements have been
made by the American Red Cross with
French institutions in Paris, Lyons
and Bordeaux for training nurses to
carry Instruction, prevention and
cure of tuberculosis into affected
homes. The Red Cross has provided
dispensaries and visiting nurses to
meet the urgent need of the civilian
population of France.
The Red Cross cure, embracing
fresh air, good food and general slim
ulation of morale through pleasant
surroundings and appropriate distrac-
ton, has been conducted during the
war under the direction of DR.. Liv-
ingston Farrand, director of tubercu-
losis work of the International Health
Board in France.
DR.. Farrand, who becomes execu-
tive head of the American Red Cross
when the War Council retires on
March 1, has been in close touch with
the many branches of Red Cross work
udring his stay abroad. He has stud
led closely and appreciates so fully
the cause of distressed peoples that
1t is with confidence that the Ameri-
can Red Cross intrusts itself to HIS
leadership. Years of education and
philanthropic work make DR.. Farrand
ably fitted and equipped in heart and
mind to take up the great work of the
American Red Cross.

BLOODY iNRUsSIA
WAITS REMOVAL 0FlTROOPS
Returned Observer Tells Senators
Forces Are Necessary.

Washington, ID. c., February 20
Roger II. Simmons, who recently re-
turned from q mission to Russia for
the bureau OF commerce, today told
the senate committee investigating
lawless agitation in this country that
IL the American and allied forces we're
withdrawn from northern Russia the
bolsheviks would engage in one OF the
bloodiest massacres the world had
ever seen.
The witness said he was surprised
at the demands being made for the
withdrawal Of the American forces
and told the committee that every
time the American and allied soldiers
had found 1t necessary to give up
ground in northern Russia the boil
sheviki had swept in the inaugurated
an orgy Of murder of peaceful citi-
zens.
He said that before leaving Arch
angel November 3, he had found that
the American troops were well sup
piled and had performed great acts of
herosm which yet remain to be told
Evidence which he said showed that
Germany was responsible for the out
break of bolshevism in Russia was
presented to the committee by Mr..
Simmons.
1t included sworn statement of
Russian that just before the cars
government was overthrow he was
sent by the German imperial chancel-
lor to Switzerland to determine which
Of the Russian Socialist schools there
was the most radical and to offer the
leader 100000 marks if he would
send his men into Russia to spread
their propaganda.
After visiting Switzerland, the Rus
sian reported that the school headed
by Lenine was the most radical, but
he recommended that the services of
Lenine be not engaged, as the result
If successful, would mean terrible
catastrophe for Russia.
This evidence, Mr. Simmons said,
coupled with the fact that Lenine
passed through Germany on his way
from Switzerland to Russia; that
members of the Red guard were given
iron crosses and that German soldiers
and officers were used to put down an
anti-bolsheviki mutiny, proved beyond
doubt where the responsibility lay
for the reign of terror in Russia.

1t is so desperately needed.
Relief work will be in behalf Of the
entire population of Poland without

and manufacture of liquor within
the state will cease on that date re-
gardless of whether national pro-
h!bition is effective in the nation.
Under terms Of the constitutional
amendment adopted by the voters at
last November's election, Wyoming
would have gone dry January 1. 1920.
When the legislature met last Janu-
ary. however. it was deemed advis-
able to put the state law into effect
July l. this year. at the same time
that it appeared national war time
prohibition would be eeffctive. A law
was passed by the legislature au-
thorizing this.
In addition to the power placed by
state law in the hands of state
prohibition commissioner. there will
be Law Enforcement League.
privately financed and privately
operated to enforce the new law.
This league already has begun the
work of keeping Wyoming free of il
legal manufacture and sale Of LIQUOR
after July !.
State house gossip is that Fred L.
Crabbe. now superintendent Of the
Wyoming Anti-saloon League, will
he chosen Prohibition Commissioner.
Not only bootlegging but CONNER
cial traffic in liquor must cease in
accordance with the wishes of the
people" said Mr.. Crabbe in a state
n.ent to The Associated Press. THE
voters gave the largest per capita
dry majority of any state in the
Union and they are going to see that
the law will be enforced. The law as
passed by the legislature is one of the
most drastic Of its kind"
Saloons in Wyoming now pay a
combined revenue of 100000 for

Of the approaching dry spell' brew
cries are turning to other lines Most
OF them will manufacture soft"
drinks.
Data gathered in the three largest
cities in the state-Sheridan Casper
and Cheyenne-shows virtually every
barroom and saloon has been spoken
for by proprietors Of candy shops,
soft drink parlors. cafes. music stores
and restaurants.
Saloon men are cleaning out their
stocks 'as rapidly as possible. 1t is
stated with authority that respect
able citizens OF the state who lay in
moderate supply Of liquor now for
their own use after July will not be

announced there will be eternal and
vigilant warfare waged on the man
who seeks to buy now and sell later.
