ineffective.
London.-The Russian soviet gov
ernment has notified Great Britain
that II is willing to meet the leading
allies for a peace conference in Lon
don, but as a preliminary to such
conference 1t demands the surrender
of General Wrangel, the anti-Bolshe-
visit commander in the south, under a
guarantee of personal safety.
The soviet informs Great Britain Of
its willingness to agree to an armistice
in Poland and expresses its astonish-
ment at Great Britain's action in in
terrupting the discussion OF trade re-
lations with Russia.
Warsaw.-Armistice negotiations be-
tween representatives of Poland and
soviet Russia probably will be held at
Brest-Litovsk, according to diet cir
cles.

Poland's armistice proposals.

Mr.. Hamburger Returns

o. w. Bamberger of the Carri-
zozo Trading Company returned
the early part of this week from
his eastern business trip, during
which time he made purchases
of goods for spring and summer
trade. Things are looking much
better in the east now, but prices
remain firm with no indication
of a downward trend, Mr.. Bam-
berger says. However, he was
fortunate in making his purchases
in the early part of the buying
game and his prices on new
goods will be surprise to those.
who think they will be compelled
to pay much more than before.
1t will pay to investigate the new
stock and the reasonable prices.

Ask Bonds For Reclamation

Washington, d. c., Feb. 20. =
Reclamation of unused lands in
the west and south through bond
issues, operating similar to the
federal farm loan system, would
be authorized by a bill introduced
by senator Fletcher, Democrat,
Florida. A similar measure will
be offered in the house by re-
preventative Smith, Republican,
Idaho.
Under the plan $40, 900. 600
worth of bonds would be sold the
first year, $50, 600, 600 the second,
$40, 900, 600 the third and $50, 000,- :
600 the fourth year. with a total
not exceeding $3.50. 100000.
The measure represents the
concert of action of the south
and the west for a great national
rather than sectional plan.

Denver Runs out of License

Denver, Feb. 18. NO less
than Is Denver couples were
compelled to forego the expert
ence of being married here to-
day because of the lack of mar
riage license blanks in the Office
of the clerk of licenses. Itseems
that the blanks had been ordered
from h ! printers since Decem.

fiuenza and the scarcity of white
paper and a few other unfortun-
ate circumstances, the printer
was unable to print up the re-

the matter as an evil omen and

mits might be secured on the
