was steadily moving into Hungarian
territory with the purpose of stemming
the bOlshevik advance, and there was
serious crisis in Budapest.
The communists still held on in
Munich, but the government of Pre-
mier Hoffman was pressing them close
ly and most of the Bavarians seemed
against them. In Munich itself terror
ism, rioting and great distress ruled,
and nearly all the workers were idle.
Elsewhere in Germany, especially in
Hamburg and Bremen, there was a
continuation of the fighting and disor-
der that have been prevalent for
months. The details are uninterest-
ing.
An attempt to seize Vienna was
made by communists led by Hungar-
ian agitators. 1t was foiled and the
Hungarians were arretsed and elected
from the city.

Bolshevism and communism had
hard week of it. The Russian soviet
First army surrendered to Ukrainian
troops under General Petlura in the
region of Homel, giving up large stores
Of munitions, and few days later the
Ukrainians drove the bolsheviki out of
Kiev, being aided by many of their
prisoners, who volunteered to serve
against their former comrades. Along
the Plethora river the bolshevist
troops were driven far back by the
loyal Russians and Siberians, who
were not far from junction with the
allied forces in the Archangel district.
The latter had several successes and
took much material, and they were
joined by numerous deserters. In
southeastern. Russia, in the region OF
Uralsk, the Ural Cossacks, apparently
acting in conjunction with Admiral
Kolchak's Siberians, forced the bolshe-
Wiki to retire long way to the north.

The plan of the allies to withdraw
their troops from Russia and to supply
the anti-bolshevik elements with mum.
tions met with the hearty approval OF
the governments of North Russia and
Omsk, but they protest earnestly
against Doctor Nansens proposal that
the bolsheviki be supplied with food
provided hostilities are entirely stop
ped. The loyal Russians have no in-
tention or desire to cease their war;
fare on the Lenine-Trotzky forces and
are confident the bolshevists will be
defeated. In this view the Russian rep
resentatives in Paris and Washington
concur. According to the present
plans of the allies, the Omsk govern
ment will be recognized by them soon
after the peace treaty is signed, and in
the meantime any diplomatic advances
by the bolsheviki will be ignored.

1t appears that the peace treaty will
not be ready for the signatures of the
Germans so soon as had been expect
ed, because Of the long task Of COM
plotting the drafting, and as the Ger
man government announced it's dele
gates would not arrive at Versailles
as early as former plans contemplated.
The treaty may be presented to them
piecemeal, so that it can be signed
about May Is. In that case peace
would be effective throughout the
world about July Is, for clause will
be inserted providing that the pact
shall go into effect 80 days after it is
signed. The German party, headed by
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau, will
include about Is persons. 1t is the
present plan to keep them virtually in
communicate at Versailles, but both
the Germans and the American CORE
spondents are protesting against this.

President Carranza threw his som.
brero into the ring last week with an
attack on the Monroe doctrine. In a
formal statement his foreign depart
ment said: 1.-THE conference now meet
ing at Paris has considered the recog
milton of the Monroe doctrine. Some
governments, friends of Mexico, have
asked Mexico for it's opinion regarding
the doctrine, and the Mexican depart
ment Of foreign relations has answered
that the Mexican government has not
recognized and will not recognize the
Monroe doctrine or any other doctrine
that attacks the sovereignty and indie
pendence of Mexico"
But who cares?
CarranZa also ordered his minister
to France to withdraw to Spain be-
cause, though he has been in Paris
since December, he has not yet been
permitted to present his credentials to
the French government.

The Victory loan campaign was
launched last week and the results of
the first few days were so satisfactory
that the treasury officials were almost
surprised. The slogan, Lets Finish
the job" has caught the public mind
and is catching the public's dollars,
and the enthusiasm displayed all over
the country is no less than that dis
played in the former loan campaigns.
The drive is greatly aided by the pres
ence Of returned fighters and of cap
tured German submarines, cannon and
airplaneS.

Health Officer Gives
Hot Weather Aduice

Equal rights for men" is the slogan
raised Thursday by City Health Off
Ger J. NJ. Kinsey in discussing the
hot weather and giving timely sum-
lner advice. Wear light weight
light colored clothing" he says See
how the women are getting away with
it. Equal rights for mem" His other
hints follow:
If you want to keep cool practice
moderation in eating and drinking.
A light diet and abstinence from al
coholic beverages should be the rule.
Fruits and vegetables are to be pre-
ferred to meats.
Chew what you eat to a fine pulp;
you won't want to much and your
stomach won't have so much to do.
Plenty of cool water, citrous drinks,
such as lemonade, orangeades. have a
very salutary effect upon the body
tissues.
A good nights sleep, preferably in
the open air. is the best means Of pre-
pairing for a hot day.
Battle daily.
Fatigue, worry and anxiety should
be avoided, and during the days of
extreme heat physical effort should
be reduced to a minimum.
Don't worry. 1t will be hot just the
same.
