 <. TO LAST MAN
Trotsky Anxious To Teach Poles and Paderewski
 "a Lesson"

Warsaw, Feb. 24.-(By The Asso- ciated Press.)-"We must fight the treacherous Poles to the last soldier" :" This is the dictum Leon Trotzky, Rus- sian Bolsheviki minister of war sent from Perm front to the Smolensk- Minsk headquarters, whence the troops have been ordered to advance on Baranovitchi. Trotzky is anxious to give the Poles what he terms "a les son" as he especially hates Paderew- ski.
 It is just revealed that prior to Paderewski's becoming premier, the members of the Polish legation in Moscow were arrested and some shot. When the Warsaw government pro- tested, the Moscow government re- piled:
 "We are surprised. We thought we were doing you a favor by locking up your Bourgeois representatives" Loves Display.
 Trotzky has resumed an exalted military attitude, assembling about him cOmmissaries whom he treats as Marshals. He holds frequent reviews, sometimes riding on horseback wear ing high sheepskin cap and calling out to the men Good mor- row, my little soldiers," whereup- on they reply Good morrow, Com- rade!w
 These close relations, however, did l not prevent one of his comrades from stealing Trotzky's sable overcoat re- gently during halt when the war minister was enjoying his usual sump- tuous meal. Trotzky, also has of late, assumed more power than ever, had fierce quarrel with Nikolai Lenine, Bolshe- vik premier, regarding the proposed Princes Islands conference. He strong ly opposed this conference but Len. 1 inc prevailed. Lenine desires to pre- serve Bolshevism at any cost and also to keep in as far as possible with the allies, in the belief that Bolshevism will sweep the world.

They Never Go Back.

A brother-in-law of mine who is in
France wrote me about one Of his pals
who had been taken sick and was be-
ing examined by physician. The
physician found that in addition to be-
ing sick he also had heart trouble in
a minor degree. Consequently he de-
termined to recommend discharge
for the soldier.
Upon hearing of it, the Yank put
up a strenuous protest, whereupon the
doctor said, "Why, my dear boy, what
would you do with heart like yours

ing numbers and you were compelled
to retreat3 How far could you ~

Bond sealpers and swindler3 whs
induce the public to give up govern
ment securities for worthless stocks
Of the ''hy-bynisht" variety are to
b nut out Of business by the United
States Federal Trade Commission, CO.
operating with the Department Of
Justice, the Victory Liberty Loan
Committee Of the War Loan Organi-
xation and other governmental sgen-
cies
Albert e. Turner, chairman OF the
Rrokers' Committee for the Victory
liberty Loan and Of the Business De-
ve,onment Committee of the Philadel-
phia Stock Exchange, Is making 2
survey Of fraudulent and questionable
hond onerations in the Third Federal
Reserve District.
Since these committees started a
campaign a few weeks ago some OF
the more cautious scalpers and swindl-
ers have stopped trying to reach the
bond owners by displaying advertis-
ing But according to Mr.. Turner
they are still attempting to do busi-
ness by mail and by telephone sollcl-
tation Of prospective victims.
"It Is planned to protect buyers OF
Liberty Bonds, War. Savings Certif1-
Gates and Thrift Stamps from unfair
practices and Misrepresentation OF
scalpers." said Mr.. Turner. Most
scalpers are operating among the
Door. By various misrepresentation
thew induce bond holders to sell $50
securities for $40 and even, In some
instances, AZ low as $25.
"The greater number Of the scalpers'
however. are satisfied with a smaller
nrofit on each transaction and q large
volume of business. They DO business
in many instances without being re-
ported because they offer the market
price Of he bond, minus a fee, and
without interest. The bond seller -
entitled to the proportion Of interest
due on his bond at the time Of the
sale. Many Of them do not know this
and thus the scalper adds to his
profits"
The campaign against the scalpers
and swindlers will include advertising
posters warning against them, to be
posted in industrial establishments.
The Foreign Language Division OF the
Victory Liberty Loan Committee Is
low making arrangements to have
such posters printed in various Ian
yuages so that the warning will reach
| Ill bond buyers.
According to Mr.. Turner, the scalp
.rs and swindlers could all be put out
| If business in short order If every

icitor to submit his proposition to
