BERLIN, April 30.-The advance of
the Polish armies under General Pill
sudski into the Ukraine is endanger-
ing plans Of the monarchists for the
overthrow of the Bolshevik government
in that country, according to advices
received here.
Information obtained in private
sources is that the monarchists hope to
put Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaie-
witch, former commander IN chief Of
the Russian armies, on the throne in
the Ukraine, under democratic constf-
tuition. 1t is said the plans Of the mon
archists, who have the support Of the
peasants, are endangered because of
the hostility of the peasant class to
General Pilsudski and the Poles. Pill
sudski's promise to drive the Bolshe-
Wiki from the Ukraine and protect the
country until a new government can be
established was received with distrust,
it is said, as the Ukrainians do not
relish accepting help from the Poles.
The monarchist movement contem-
plates the breaking up of the many
large landed estates in the Ukraine and
the distribution of them among the
peasants

April 3, 1929 Of an article entitled The
Virgin Islands of the United States" by
b. V. Nc Clanahan. VI. D., formerly
Chief Public Physician of this island.
The contribution is copyrighted or it
would give US pleasure to reproduce it in
these columns, but it may suffice to re-
mark that it deals almost exclusively
with the health and sanitation features,
principally of Christiansted. The doctor
While pointing out what has been done
along these ines since the United States
acquisition, and commenting on what is
still recommendable for the Improvement
OF conditions, does not fail to pay tribute
to what efficiency he met here, and he
does not refrain from many references
credltable to the past Danish adminStra-
ton. In alluslon to typhoid fever which
has been very much miSrepresented in
writings about these islands DIR. Nc
Clanahan writes:
Typhoid fever was never trouble
some, appearing only sporadically over
the islands. The last severe epidemic
occurred over two generations ago.; but
to prevent any further trouble from this
source the entire population of the is
lands was given antityphoid vaccine
during the latter part of 1872. On the
subject OF physicians fees the doctor re-
ters to the charges of the Danish doctors
as having been exceedingly small" al
though reasonable and just in considera-
ton Of the means Of the majority Of
OF the population. In conclusion DR..
Nc Clanahan expresses it as his opinion
that the future health Of these islands,
and in this way the real future of the
islands, depends largely on the work
and the cooperation of the medical men
stationed there" 1t is very gratifying
to find that the good doctor has retain
ed sufficient remembrance of this poor
colony to devote time to writing such an
interesting review of them, and thatlgoes
far to strengthen the impression before
brought forward in this paper that DIR. Nc
Clanahan was one of the finest officials of
the American administration it has been
the good fortune of the islands to well
come. His friends will be glad to learn
that he is we'll, and now practicising as
