decided to remain until the Polish
government itself moves.
Warsaw today celebrated to some
extent the victory which freed the
capital from the bolshevih menace.
Gen. Weygand was given the free
dom of the city just prior to his de-
parture for Paris and was presented
with the Order of Military Virtue and
also the sixteenth century sword
which once hung at the side of the
Polish King Stephen Bathori.
Warsaw was decorated for the oc-
casion and bands played lively airs
in honor of the departing general,
who had taken a prominent part in
the staff work which met the soviet

that the total number of prisoners cap
tured by the Poles-about 100000
has made but comparatively little i'm
preston on the strength of the Rus
sian army.
To measure this war by the stand
ard of the world war is to make a
fundamental mistake. Here neither
numbers nor casualties count or are
modern methods of warfare employed
except in rare cases. A small num-
Der of Polish guns completely changed
the situation. From what l have seen
I am inclined to believe that it was
the roar of the guns more than the
damage they did that drove the boil
sheviki back. Every time l see col
umn of bolshevik prisoners | realize
more and more the fact that the Rus
slams have been cut off from the out
side world for two years.
Polish soldiers are equipped with
new ammunition. French and British
uniforms and rifles and have bRand-
new footwear. The bolsheviki, while
not looking han ., bad as one might
expect, after hearing the tales OF
unframed observers, are not properly
equipped to meet a modern army.
Physically the reds are very mt. but
they are tired of war and want to
go back to their villages. To GER
tain extent the same is true of the
average Polish, as the return of the
larger part of Gen. Haller'S army to
America showed rather clearly. Every
body in these parts is fed up with
war and the sooner peace is concluded
the happier all will be.

SHANT|ES MENACE
TO U. S. EQUIPMENT
Fire Would Mean Loss of
$500, 900 in Uninsured
Property.

The government stands to lose ap-
proximately $1.5o0.00o in the event Of
serious fire sweeping the group of
shanties located in East Potomac
Park. because the valuable Office fur
niture apd equipment stored in them
Is not insured.
This fact was pointed out today as
an additional reason why these eye
sores along the beautiful speedway
should be removed.
It was stated that the government
never takes out fire insurance for any
OF it's property. If government prop
erty Is destroyed by fire the result is
a loss which eventually must come
out OF the pockets of the taxpayers.
Menace to Property.
Deputy Fire Chief P. W. Nicholson
has pointed out that the shackS in
East Potomac Park are a menace to
the $1.500,000 worth of government
property stored therein. He declared
that three times since the buildings
were erected late in 1918 the Wash
1ngton fire department has been COM
PEELED to respond to alarms of fire in
this group of structures, and that he
oelleVeS fourth. and possibly more
serious. fire might occur any time.
Washington fremen would have
great difficulty in checking the prog
ress of the flames or extinguishing
them altogether, he said, because of
the presence of weeds about the fire
plugs. some of which. he asserted, are
higher than a mans head. In the
event of fire, much of the fame
nght1ng would have to be done by
the fireboat. Chief Nicholson averred.
Government officials, while heartily
in back of the movement to get rid
of these fire traps and "eyesores"
along the Speedway. admit they know
Of no building suitable at the present
time for the storage of the unused
office furniture and equipment now
lying in these shanties
Secretary Baker is sympathetic
with the move to raze the shacks,
and will give the orders necessary to
the tearing down of the build ings
just as soon as the public buildings
commission assigns space for the
storage of the furniture

the work of forging a ring around
the 18th bolshevik army. Other
soviet forces have reassembled at va

Repulse Nine Attacks.
Nine attacks were made in the re-
gion Of Kolno yesterday, but all are
said to have been repulsed with enor-
nous losses. Among the captives is
the commander of a bolshevik divi-
sion.
In the maneuver which resulted in
the occupation of Lomza. the Poles
took more than 1000 prisoners and
nine cannon. There was street fight

ty-four hours before the bolsheviki
were finally ousted from the place.

Soviet troops are reported to be
concentrating in great numbers along
the Beresina river, where the recenf
offensive against Warsaw was be-
gun. and military observers here are
specializing as to the possibility they
may launch an attack against the
central Polish front. 1t is believed
possible the bolsheviki may make a
stand in the event the Poles continue
their pursuit of the retreating soviet
armies eastward from the Bug river, on
the south. and Grodno, on the north.
Reports received here late today
continued to tell of Polish forces
closely pursuing the retiring bolshe-
vik on various fronts.

Los Angeles, March 19.-With the
arrival here yesterday OF twenty
men and two Officers the story was
told of the death OF Lieutenant

Joseph Kaufman.
L The formal story will be told soon
before a naval court of inquiry, but
the survivors say that the HI. fol-
lowed by it's sister ship. the H-2.
was steaming northward. The sea
was rough and in the darkness the
HI ran aground. 1t had no small
boats and neither did the H-2.
The coming tower was opened
and the men were ordered to swim
to Redondo Point. While seeing that
his men obeyed his orders Webb was
washed overheard and drowned.
When the roll was called on shore
three enlisted men were missing.
Later the bodies of Delamarine and
GILES were washed ashore, but those
of Webb and Kaufman had not

this port.

Noske has complied but the GOV
