The idea Of a separate state has

UNITED STATES
 CANNOT DEPEND
 ON CHINESE SILK

Tokio, June 18-Chinese methods of producing silk are so primitive that it will be a long time before China can offer satisfactory material to the American market, in the opin- ion of D. B. Douty, one of the Ameri- can party who visited China to in vestigate the silk industry. He said:
 '@The American silk dealers have often called the attention of the Chi nese authorities to the importance of improving their silk industry, but much to our regret and surprise the Chinese authorities can never afford to listen to any suggestions on the subject. In consequence all consider ations necessary for the developm ent -of sericultural industry in China are completely neglected.
 "It is a matter of regret that China. should remain in such a condition of industrial torpor at this time. when there is a growing international de- mand for silk as a consequence of the growth of women workers incomes throughout the world"
 An official of the Japan Silk Thread Association says: Improvement of the Chinese silk industry will be ben eficial not only to China and America but to Japan as well, because the limit of production of silk has been

ANNEXATION BY
 POLAND FEAR OF GERMAN WORKERS

Oppeln, Upper Silesia, June Is - German workmen in the plebiscite zone are tremendously excited over the election. Jealous patriots and firm in the belief that Germany soon will be on it's feet again, they are dis mayed at the possibility of Upper Sd- lesia being added to Poland Ruin of industry and an irremediab1e set back to German labor in the district is the dark picture they paint of Polish victory.
 Seeking the views of Upper Si1esian workmen on the p1eDfscite, the cor respondent asked the editor of an Oppeln newspaper to arrange a meet ing with labor leaders. The editor got together a dozen. all German Here are the principal points of their arguments:
 Alliance with Poland would be a catastrophe for Upper Si1esian work men. as they would be deprived of the benefit of German social and labor legislation, such as workmen's insur- ance and compensation acts and the employees representation in the op- eration of industrial and commercial concern.
 Poland is an agricultural country and backward socially and economic ally. Lacking industries the Poles have had little experience in the scientific management of mines and factories. Even in agriculture the Poles still use the most primitive methods and implements. In their unskillful hands the highly compi cated industrial mechanism of Upper silesia would be ruined.
 Polish labor is underpaid. Upper Silesia, compared to Poland, is a labor paradise. If it becomes part of Po- land, Poles would flock in and over run the country, reducing wage and working standards and forcing the Germans out of employment.
 eff Upper Silesia becomes Polish it goes with the East. If it stays Ger people will follow in the path of the United States"
 Much was said about democracy. No Bolshevist sentiment was express ed at all. These Germans professed great distrust of Polands foreign pol icy which they declared to be imper- ialistic. They conceded that Poland now was nominally social-demo cratic, but they asserted that the Poles were such an unstable people that their policy was likely to change over night.
 "Geman Upper Silesians want to re.
 main with democratic Germany" they said. German workmen want to set tie down to work and restore. German industries. They want to show the world that Germany can fulfill the obligations of the Peace Treaty. Eut the war indemnity cannot be paid ii Germany is deprived of the raw ma. terials Upper Silesia can supply"

NO PLANS TO

There is further evidence that the Republicans in Connecticut are not over enthusiastic about Harding as the presidential nominee. The can- df'ate's suggestion that an early and intensive campaign be started gets a deaf ear in this state for according to announcement made today there won't be a wheel turned in behalf of the national campaign earlier than next September. The Republican State Central Committee win be called together at thai time and things will thereafter take the usual course Re- publican politicians like most people want their vacations and recreation and after the strenuous and disap~ pointing convention at Chicago they all feel that they have earned a rest Chairman Roraback is going to do some fishing and it is understood that Col. Ullman, who probably did more work than the rest of them from Con- necticut at the convention. will make e an early getaway for his camp in Maine to remain away most of the summer.

RUSSIAN BRIDES
 OF TANKS WILL
 BE SENT TO U. s.

Manila, June 1S.-Three hundred or more Russian "war brides," who have come here from Siberia with their American soldier husbands, are to be sent to the United States by the gov ernment as soon as transportation IS available.
 These brides come from every sta- tion in life from the peasant girl to the college graduate and a number had been accustomed to the 1uxuries of life before war and revolution drove them from their homes.
 Their experiences in Manila, prob- ably have been a disappointment to most of them, as their soldier hus- bands on their meager pay of $36 month have been unable to support family, house rent and food prices having almost doubled here within the last year.
 To prevent these Russian girls from actual suffering, the Red Cross and other charitable organizations, have provided them with shelter and food
 They are willing to work, but hav- ing no knowledge of English or Spanish, they are unable to find em- ployrn ent in any of the stores o1 Manila and native men and boys are preferred for house servants
 After several weeks of investigation as to the best disposition to make of the war brides and their soldier husbands the army authorities de- cided that they, with few exceptions. should be sent to the Uniter States and there distributed among the army camps and posts, where quarters are available for married enlisted men, Only those enlisted men with wives, who have an income in addition so their army pay will be permitted tn remain in the Philippines.
