BRITISH WARN REDS
Russians Ordered to Return Eng
Iish Prisoners.
ton" Should Captives Be Held
by Soviet Government.

London, Ocs. 9.-Great Britain has
threatened to take certain action"
against Soviet Russia if steps are not
taken by Oct. 10 for the release of
British prisoners held by the BOlShev-
XII, says the Herald, organ Of labor,
which prints what purports to be the
text Of notes exchanged by the British
and Soviet governments.
Leonid Krassin, head OF the Russian
Bolshevik trade mission here, has re-
piled on behalf of the BOlShevik re-
gime that it will promise to fulfill the
conditions required by Great Britain
when the latter carries out her part Of
the bargain made last July for the
mutual release of all prisoners, and
cessation of all hostile action.
The number of prisoners in British
hands in Egypt, Persia, Constantine
pie and Batum, it is declared by NJ.
Krassin, has not been communicated
to the Soviet government. which de-
sires their return to Russia.
Regarding Russian prisoners under
British control, Foreign Minister Cur
zon said in his note: "a very limited
number of Russian subjects are in our
hands and Great Britain desires to get
rid of them. They are being retained
solely as a means of inducing the Boil
sheviki to fulfill their undertaking"

TO HONOR HEROIC YANK DEAD

Washington, Oct. 9.-President Will
son directed that on Sunday, Novem-
Der IA, The American flag be displayed
at half-mast on all public buildings
and naval ana military posts las a
token of the nations participation in
the memorial services held for the he
roic American soldiers, sailors, ma
rines and others who gave their lives
to their country in the World war;"
In connection with the order, the
President authorized this statement:
'"There has been transmitted to me
a suggestion that name Sunday, No
vember "A, as Armistice Sunday, in or
der that the religious services held
throughout the country on that day
may be given an especial note of re-
membrane for the heroic services and
sacrifices of those who died for Amer

THE selection of formal day
which shall annually be set aside to
commemorate our participation in the
World war will some day day doubt
less be effected through legislation,
and already Memorial day, rich in he
roic memories, has acquired additional
significance as being appropriate also
to the cOmmemoration of the heroes
of the World war. am, however, so
heartily in favor of the suggestion
that has been made that / take this
occasion to express publicly my ap-
proval Of the idea.
November IA, 1918, will always be
memorable as the beginning of the end
of the most terrible and destructive
OF all wars. Our beloved country took
a noble part in fastening the arrival
of the day hailed by the whole world
as the dawn of peace; but close upon
the day of victory followed realiza-
ton of loss, and the anniversary will
bring with it solemn thoughts to the
minds OF every American, memories Of
brave men who fell, sympathy for
their living relatives and those reIig-
ious reflections in which nations, like
individuals, must seek hope and con-
ISOLATION.
THAT Sunday, November IA, this
year being the Sunday Immediately
following the anniversary, should be
observed in all our churches by suit
able memorial services for the heroic
American soldiers, sailors and marines
who gave their lives to their country
in the World war, seems to be emf
nently fitting and proper, and I COM
mend the suggestion to those who con-
duct such service"

TRADE OUTLOOK GOOD
Reserve Board Reports on Bust
ness Conditions.
Says Steady Resumption of Manufac-
turing Reflects Demand for Goods
Freight Situation o. K

Washington, Oct. Smashing of
prices has caused revival of business
in the retail trade, and a more hope
full outlook for the winter months, it
was shown in reports made to the fed
eral reserve board from various re
serve bank centers.
Steady resumption of manufacturing
activity reflects a freer demand for
goods, and cancellations of orders are
not believed to be as heavy as ap-
peared few weeks ago.
A distinctly hopeful sign in the in
dustrial trend is the improvement gen.
orally noted in the transportation sta
tfstics. There is less criticism over
lack Of cars to move goods. Improved
car supply has resulted in better mar
keting of goods. The quicker handling
of freight by the railroads has had a
stimulating effect in various fields of
industry.
Growth of optimism among business
men is reported and business is said
to be approaching a greater degree of
stability. Reports further state that
in many leading districts, despite a
demand which is lower than year
ago, some factories are kept going,
not alone upon new orders, but upon
orders which have accumulated for
the past few months.
Officials state that the spirit of hest
fancy manifested over price reductions
is still in evidence, but not in such a
pronounced degree as when the price
cutting began. Reports seem to indi-
cate there will be a continuation in
revival of buying.

Fifty new SEATS
IN u. S. CONGRESS-
South and West Gain Most Ac-
cording to the New Gen.
SuS.
ILLINOIS TO GET THREE MORE
Maine May Lose Seat, but New York,
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan
Gain Four Each-House to
Consist of 485 Members.

Washington, Oct. Determination
of the finafcensus figures of the coun-
try, which place the fetal population
Of the Continental United States at
105,863, los, indicates that the West
and the South prOpOrtiOnately will
gain more in d political way than the
East or Middle West, through in
creased membership in the house OF
Representatives, more votes in the
electoral college and in larger delega-
tons to the national political conven-
;tiOns.
This result will obtain whatever ba-
sis of appOrtionment is adopted by
congress next winter fixing the size OF
the next house, which in turn is re-
fected in the electoral college and the
conventions of the big political par
ties
AS a result of the increase of 49,
710,S42 in population during the past
ten years, 90 new seats must be added
to the house TO prevent any state
from losing any part of its present
representation. Should the present
membership of 435 be left unchanged
by increasing the basis of apportion-
ment there will have to be transfer
of ID seats now held by u states TO
nine other states.
For the last half century the prece-
dent has been to increase the size of
The house so as to prevent loss of eX-
listing representation by any state. AS
a result the house has grown from
243 TO 4S5 members, with only three
states-Maine, New Hampshire and
VermOnt-lOsing one member each in
the last 30 years.
If this precedent is followed this
year five additional representatives
seats must be given to California, four
each to New York, Ohio, Pennsyl-
yania and Michigan; three to Illinois
and Texas; two to Massachusetts, New
Jersey and North Carolina, and one
each to Alabama, Arizona, Connect
cut, Georgia, Maryland, Montana, New
Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Car
china, Tennessee, Washington, West
Virginia, Wisconsin, Arkansas and
While the present basis of appor-
tionment is 211, 877 inhabitants, or its
major fraction, to the congressional
district, congress can increase the ba-
sis to 219,427 without causing any
loss To advance beyond the latter
figure will mean that Maine would
lose one seat, with the net result of
as new seats in congress.
Congressional leaders are strongly
opposed TO any large increase in the
house, as they regard the present
membership of 435 as too unwieldly.
The present individual populations
of the various states and the figures
for the previous census are as fol-
lows:
