UFA CAPTURED BY

DESPERATE FIGHT
Bolshevist Airships Aid in
Fighting for First
Time
SAMARA is IT'S MILES
Soviets Sink British Submarine in the
Baltic Sea with Destroyer
June 4th
SAMARA is IT'S MILES

LONDON, June 13-Bolshevist
forces on Monday captured Ufa, one
of the cities recently taken by the
trops of Admiral Kolchak, after
three days of sanguinary fighting, ac-
cording to a Russian wireless dis
patch received here.
The message adds that Bolshevist
airplanes participated in the fighting
against the Siberians for the first
time.
(Ufa is in the Province of Oren-
burg and about ITS miles east of Sa-
mara. 1t is on the trans-Siberian
railway and in the rear of the line to
which the Kolchak forces recently ad-
vanced.)
The Admiralty announced that a
British submarine operating in the
Baltic Sea has been missing since
June a and is presumed to have been
lost with all hands.
This apparently confirms an official
statement from the Russian Soviet
Government received in London on
Junes7, which included this sentence.
"The submarine which attacked our
destroyers in the Gulf of Koporia
IAN arm of the Gulf of Finland,
southwest of Petrograd) was sunk by
artillery fire."

Members of the graduating class of

and were passing the car near the
lake when the driver in turning out
to clear the big cars, lost control
and the small car began climbing a
steep bank until it struck a boulder
and stopped. The car slid back into
the road and overturned pinning Miss
Densmore under the car injuring her
seriously. She was unconscious and
it was feared had suffered a concus-

mites offered in the various branches
of naval service. They state that all
discharged men in the army, navy and

to a training station but to a receiv-
ing ship in Boston for general detail
and will be rated higher Immediately
as they have had previous military
training. Come in during the day or
evening and talk it over.
Chief Yeoman Wilson, heading the
navy recruiting party here, has re-
ceived orders to enlist bandsmen for
band of 80 pieces to be transferred
to the U. S. S. Pittsburg, now at the
Portsmouth, N. H., navy yard, being
fitted up for an indefinite cruise in
European waters, sailing about June

structed to use every effort to get the
men. They are to enlist one band
master, four first musicians, Is mus
icians, first class, and IL musicians,
second class.
In addition to the opportunity CIV
en- men to learn the machinists
trade and to become qualified cleo
tricians, the navy also has hospital

anxious to secure cooks, bakers and
musicians. The cooks and bakers
are sent to the cooking school at
Newport, R. l., while the musicians

al v. Insurance Co. of North America,
on which trial began last Friday was

This case was first docketed in Feb
ruary, 1910. 1t has been tried twice
in the Supreme Court and twice in
county court and the verdict yester-
day closed one of the long drawn out
and closely contested cases that un-
fortunately are found on every court
docket.
The action was brought to recover
the insurance on the plaintiffs veneer
mill at East Haven destroyed by fire.
The case was taken to the Supreme
Court from the June term in 1910,
and the ruling reversed by Judge
Munson and the case remanded for
retrial. On trial in 1918 the jury re-
turned verdict for plaintiffs to re-
cover $2,560. This was taken to Su-
preme Court again on exceptions and

Start Afresh with a New
and Really international
Organization
ALL POWERS TO JOIN
A General Survey of Europe's Needs
In Raw Materials REQUIRED for
Reconstruction

PARIS, June 13, (Associated
Press)-The proposal to continue the
Supreme Economic Council, or to re-
gulate the distribution of raw mater
ials and provide a centralized organi-
zation for the control of international
economic and trade affairs during the
post-bellum transitional period, is now
before the council itself.
The British representatives, who
raised the question with a view to the
formulation of recommendation to
the allied and associated Govern~
ments, contend that some continual
tion of governmental control during
the difficult period of transition was
necessary, and that the present or
ganization offered suitable facilities.
The Americans strongly opposed
the proposal. They held that if such
an agency were necessary it would
be far better to start fresh with
new and really international organi-
cation instead of seeking to leave the
control in the hands of the chief al
lied Governments, which alone are
represented on the present council.
The business men of the world, par
ticularly neutrals, who necessarily
suffered to a certain extent from the
control measures during the period
of hostilities, the American argued,
would look upon the decisions of
body on which powers outside of the
alliance were represented more SYM
pathetically than upon those emanat-
ing from the present body.
A general survey of Europe's needs
in raw materials and materials re-
quired for the reconstruction of de-
vastated areas and the building up of
new states and of the credit require
ments to finance the transitional per-
iod is one of the first and most pres
sing duties facing the economic ex-
perts.
At present there is nothing ap.
preaching exact information on these
financial and material requirements of
the old and new nations. Some of
these have not even approached con-
sideration of the subject, while others
have gone about it in manner strik-
ingly reminiscent of the method in

The State Councillors Have

However, 1t Must Be Considered as
1t Means an International
Peace League

BERNE, June 13-(The Associated
Press)-The Swiss Parliament has
held a discussion on the League of
Nations. Three state councillors had
submitted interpretations on the sub
ject.
DR.. Felix Calender, the Foreign
Minister, replied in behalf of the Gov
ernment that the question of joining
the League must be examined by the
Swiss people earnestly and imparti-
ally. Although the project of the
League was far from perfection and
had proved a serious disappointment,
he added, it must be considered as the
only opportunity for long time to
reach an international league, so
long desired.

Children Get Trace of

SHE DID NOT GO AWAY
Has Been with Foreigners and Taken
About Town by Them in An
Automobile

Madeline Rogers, who mysteriously
disappeared Wednesday night has
been seen at three places in the viii
lage by Boy Scouts and school boys.
Once in an automobile in front of
the G0ss Garage; on Western avenue
and near the bridge at the Gas
Works.
In the auto she was with foreign
ers reported to be Italians. She ap-
peared habggard and weary and
nearly exhausted, her features pale
and condition extremely pitiable. She
told the school boys who say her she
was going to school this afternoon,
but that was unlikely.
Up to one o'clck the officers had no
trace Of her although they had dill
gently kept up the search since We'd
nesday night.
1t is extremely unfortunate that
this young girl could have been car
ried off, or taken in charge by these
foreigners and induced to remain
away from her home.
The case is fast being solved and
the police will soon have the parties
responsible for this outrage in Gus
tody.

USE OKRA FOR A CHANGE IN
COIJpS AND IN MEAT DISHES

Okra, or "gumbo," commonly used
in the South, has yet to make place
for itself in the northern dietary, not
that taste for it has to be cultivated,
but simply because it's possibilities
have been overlooked.
1t may be grown throughout the
greater portion, of the United States,
except the eXreme northern part. The
pods are excellent died and canned,
and as these may be obtained in every
large market, it's use is not confined
to any season.
The principal use of okra is in soups
and in various dishes in which meats
form an important part. The young
pods impart an excellent flavor, be-
sides giving a pleasant mucilaginOus
consistency. The young seeds are
sometimes cooked in the same way as
green peas, and the very young and
| tender pods boiled and served as a
salad.
Okra In Metal Dangerous.
No copper, brass, or iron cooking
vessel should be employed in prepar-
| ing Okra, as the metal will be alb
! sOrbed and the pods discolored, OF
| even rendered poisonous. The cook
ing should be done in enameled, pOr-
f., celain or earthenware utensils.
