diplomatic relations with the soviets
in view of past experiences until we
are convinced that boIshevik horrors
have ended"
1t is understood that the council de-
cided to notify Poland and Rumania
not to attack the bolsheviki. In event
these nations are attacked by soviet
armies, however. the entente will
guarantee its help.
New Policy Is Liberal
Although the new policy toward
Russia reaffirms the ententes refusal
to recognize the soviet government. it
is accepted as decided weakening
from the former stand
The decision to send a commission
INTO Russia is regarded as practically
a warning to border countries to cease
warfare with the bolsheviki. 1t was
announced the premiers
would not encourage border states to
continue their war against the soviets,
1ut that in the event the red armies
attacked them the entente would aid
hem in every way Afsd 1t was am

Arkansas Junior College
Popular in Oklahoma.
Oklahoma Girls Form Large
Part OF the Student Body at
Crescent College. Eureka
Springs, Ark. In Recent
Years.

Some years ago this institution
announced it's abandonment OF dry
and useless subjects In it's currtc-
ulum which had been commonly
required in girls colleges and
boarding schools. Latin and higher
mathematics gave place to practi-
cal courses In cooking, sewing,
child welfare, Hygiene and other
useful sciences. In place OF the tra-
ditional boarding school rules.
Crescent inaugarated the student
government plan which enabled
girls TO feel liberty OF action and
responsibility for the conduct Of
their schoolmates. The result has
been gratifying, whereas formerly
Il was necessary to send out solicit
ors in the summer to make up the
quota Of so girls, all Crescent
spaces are now reserved early In
the summer, simply because the
modern methods employed there
have become known. Crescent has
become standardized by the state
universities and all work accredit-
ed. Unusual advantages are Of
fered in music, art and expression.
The college owns a beautiful lake

U. s. Assimilation Board is Planned
 for Immigrants

New York, April Establishment of a federal board of assimilation to "co-ordinate all existing government al activities relating to immigra- ton" was advocated today at the National Immigration conference held here under auspices of the In ter Racial Council of New York. The problem of the immigrant was dis cussed from every conceiveable an- gle by delegates representing 30 ra- cial groups scattered throughout the country.
 The duties of the proposed board of assimilation, as endorsed by the conference, would include "facilitat- ing the safe and expeditions distribu- ton of immigrants to their destina- tions, supplying them with informa- ton and assistance in respect to the securing of employment in those in- dustrials for which they are best adapted and affording them instruc- tion in the English language and in the history, customs and institutions of our country"
