SEE BOLSHEVIKS
LOSE in RUSSIA
BY DECEMBER |
British Military Experts Look
For Definite End of Rus
sian Campaign

London, Nov. 12.-British military
experts believe the Russian Bolshe-
Wiki cannot withstand the onslauGhts
of their enemies longer than two
months and that something definite
is likely to happen in the Russian
campaign by December /.
1t is pointed out that the Bolshev-
Xxi have employed German tactics in
moving men from one front to an
other with more or less success but
that recently each success has been
a little less marked than the previous
one and that it is reasonable to sup
pose that such tactics in the end must
break down unless one enemy is COM
pletely subdued. When the Boil
sheviki centered against Kolchak
some months ago and drove him
back 700 miles. their southern front
was left weak whereupon General
Denikine started his advance which
has resulted in clearing up South
Russia
The Bolsheviki have withdrawn
many men from the Kolchak front,
giving the Admiral a chance to ad-
vance. In the meantime the west
ern front has become a menace to
Bolsh evism. The British experts be-
lieve peace was broached to the Bal
tic states because the Bolsheviki real
lied they no longer could hold back
their enemies on three sides and
maintain the force in northern Rus

Up to Neck in Quicksand,
Is Rescued by Police

New York, Nov. IL. = Sunk to his
neck in quicksand near Borden and
Belts avenues. Long Island City,
early yesterday. Alexander Bolough,
4S years old. of Lorain, o., was res
cued by Patrolman PraZek. Thomas
Graham and Wilbur Nulenburg. two
cemetery guards. after long and con-
tinued desperate efforts.
1t was 2 a. m. when the patrol
man heard cries issuing from the
swampland in that neighborhood.
He started to investigate and sank
to his knees. He blew his whistle.
Graham and Nulenburg ran up and
helped the policeman to make his
way to firm ground. The three then
found a leaky rowboat and padded
around the swampland for almost
two hours before they found Bo-
Tough.
In attempting to get him out,
Prazek lost his balance and fell into
the sand. Disregarding his own dan
ger, the patrolman had the two men
in the boat hand him a rope which
he tied under Bolough's arms.
Prazek, with the assistance of his
two companions, got back into the
boat and they pulled Bolough to
safety,

as the man who had startled France
and the entire A, e. f. through his
spectacular swindles of trusting
Frenchmen.
