WASHINGTON. August "a long
conference ut tho White House today
between President Wilson, Secretary
OF state Colby and der-Sccrctary
of State Davis gave rise to the be-
lief that American action in the
Russo-Po!ish controversy is not far
OF.
Developments OF tho highest inn

America may be called upon to play

tions is looked for momentarily.

the President. fortified with all the
latest facts in tho situation. as n re-

question him regarding the discus
sion with the President. He did.
however. stress tho seriousness of
question OF what action the United
States might take in the matter is
a very important one.
Speculation as to what steps the
President may decide to take In the
matter is running in many directions
tonight. Among the suggested
courses open TO him arc the follow
ins:
l. To proclaim an embargo against
all Russian ports. including the Po-
lish ports along the Baltic, which
have been seized by tho Soviet forces.
This action. in concert with Grca;
Britain and France, would cncc-
lively stop shipment OF supplies and
munitions to the Russians. British
warships are already being moved
to close the Baltic and Black Sea-
ports.
May Urge All Aid withheld.
= Issuance of an appeal 10 all tho
powers in the league of nations urg-
ing them ia lend their moral support
TO the Poles and to withhold all aid
from the Soviet forces. This would
be 4 purely unofficial declaration
from the President OF the United
personality for effective results.
3. Calling OF special session OF
Congress for consideration OF more
material means with which America
might SO to the assistance OF the
Poles in checking the spread of the
Soviet rule threatening the so-called
small. self Undetermined nations
1t is uHon this last proposal that
most OF the Russian Polish discussion

grave question of how far this
body. so bitter against the league or

Hest pleasures Of the child, and, in the
history of literature, poetry precedes
prose. Everyone may see, as he rides

Ing landscape, how little water in

ter what objects are near ia gray
rock, grass patch, an alder bush, a
stake-they become beautiful by being

explains the charm Of rhyme to the

with which to pay his troops, and
gave them pieces Of paper on which
he inscribed various sums, signing each
with his own hand and name.
The soldiers were thus able to pur-

There Is probably. no division Of the
bird family that has so many different
members as the cuckoo. In fact, they
are so numerous that some localities
have a special name for a kind that In
another adjoining district may have an
entirely different name, although it is
the Identical bird. For instance, the
Caroline cuckoo is known as the
yellow-billed cuckoo in different Sec
tons of the United States, and quite
unlike its European cousins it hasn't
the bad habit Of placing It's eggs in
the nest of some other bird to be
Matched while it flies around and en-.
Joys itself.
