LONDON. August 3.-The Polish
situation had resolved itsel, tonight
Into what appeared TO he race be-
tween the Russian armies ON the one
hand. and the diplomatic agencies OF
Poland and the allies on tho other.
The outstanding news Of the day
was the failure OF the Polish armi-
stice delegates 10 open negotiations
. They Were denied the privilege by
tho Russian crnissar!es who said
they would not be received until they
had been empowered by their gov
crnment TO take up at once the foun-
damcntais OF what is TO be- tho r,cace
treaty between Poland and Russia.
Warsaw GonI of the Reds.
Tonight the Polish armisticc com
missionera laid the demand before
their government and await = dcci-
sion. In the meantime the Russian
armies. aggressive along practically
the entire extent OF the Polish Rus
sian frontier. are pounding away. The
obvious goal is Warsaw. In the late
afternoon the wireless reports de-
clarcd that the russians had taken
Erest -Li;ovsk and were within forty
eight miles OF Warsaw They were
continuing their advance.
The British government officials
today were Of the opinion that the
refusal OF the Russians to talk to
the Poles was an excuse 10 delay the
date OF the armisticc TO give them
the full advantage OF whatever posi-
tion their armies acquire In the
present forward drive. 1t was in;i-
mated that any further delays of Il
similar nature viii be met by the
calling OF Of the proposed general
conference scheduled for London as
soon as all fighting is al 4 stand
still This conference would he the
means for Russia TO renew its rcla-
tjons with the allies and the world.
Violate Pence Conditions.
The situation presents anxieties to
the allies from the political as well
as the military standpoint The
Reds have established Soviet in
The Polish territory they occupy and
undoubtedly will seek to extend 1t
or establish others as they proceed.
Julian A1aakicvsky is chairman Of
the new organization and his first
official PRONUNCIATION was n call to
the laborcrs of Poland to arise
hBainSl IlISuuSkl = DOurSeOiS, land
owner government"
This is a violation OF stipulation
number two of the conditions be-
yond which the Russians are rot to
be permitted to step. according to
firm advices the allies have given
the Poles. The condition OF peace
is that the Soviet shall not inter
fere with the internal affairs Of
Poland.
The Russian military strength has
been weakened by the shifting Of
several divisions TO the Ukraine TO
handle an anti-Boishcvist outbreak of
imposing proportions. Another fac
tor that may yet alter the military
situation is the attitude OF L!thuania
That nation is reported to be ready
TO join with Poland against Russia
on account of Bolshevist aggression
There is the possibility that several
other of the border states may Join
Lithuania.
British nationals have been advised
to leave Warsaw. and the Americans
have been instructed that if they
remain there in event OF Rolshcvist
occupation. they do so at their own
risk.

OCTOBER MILK
? PRICE REMAINS
AT 1912 CENTS
n. E. Milk Producers Con-
tinue September Price
sAnOther Month

BOSTON, Oct. 1.-The October
milk price whici farmers who supply
the Boston market will receive is the
same as in September, l012 cents
per quart delivered in Boston. The
Sales Committee of the New England
Milk Producers Association decided
to ask this price after a careful con-
sideration of the costs of production
and the condition of the milk market
at the present time.
Tho milk of the members of the
Association was sold to Boston deal
ers on the 1912 cent basis for one
month only. The conditions of the
grain market and other factors which
effect the price of milk are so uncer
tain at the present time that neither
farmer nor dealer wanted to make a
contract for more than a month. The
decision of the Sales Committee will
effect the milk price in other cities
as it has been the custom for some
time past for the smaller markets to
follow Boston in price
Before deciding on what price to
ask for milk the Sales Committee,
which consists of representative farm
ers from various sections of New
England, considered carefully the
costs Of production as shown in the
data secured by the Statistical De-
partment of the Association. This
data showed that the average cost
of producing milk in September was
J.57 cents per quart at the farm. To
this must be added the freight, sta
ton and other expenses of bringing
milk to Boston, On the average
this amounts to more than a cent a
quart.
The data secured by the Statistical
Department. showed that while there
has been a sharp decline in the nrice
of grain at wholesale, the actual de-
crease in the retail prices out in the
country is less marked. The decrease
in retail prices in the country amounts
to about 10 per cent in the past two
months. On the other hand the costs
of labor have increased in the same
time. The decrease in ~rain is about
offset bv the increase in labor costs
and the REGULAR seasonal advance in
the cost of production due to the
passing of the pastures and the nee
esSitv for heavier feeding at the
barn.
The 81 per cent butterfat standard
was retained as a recent opinion was
given bv the representatives of the
Dairy Department of the New Eng
land Agricultural Colleges that the
ST ner cent was the lowest which
could be safely sold under the Mas
law.

Retail Merchants
Favor Lower Prices

The retail merchants of the state
were represented by about 100 dele
gates at the meeting in Burlington.
OF the officers elected, J. Clark
Amey of st. Johnsbury and E. P.
Searles of Newport were made mem
bers of the executive committee and
L. F. Smith of Richford, a member
Of the committee on resolutions.
In the discussion of TOPICS Of vital
interest all were greed that lower
prices would suit everybody better
because under present conditions the
high cost makes selling more difficult
and the profit realized is not in due
proportion. The meeting was marked
bv much enthusiasm and the success
of the organization seems assured.

STATE SUNDAY
SCHOOL SESSIONS
OPENED HERE
Two Hundred Delegates
Will Be Registered Before
TOnight's Meeting

The ffty-second annual convention
of the Vermont Sunday School As
sociation opened in the Methodist
! Episcopal church here this morning
with fair sized delegation from
various sections of the state in at
tendance. Very little business was
transacted at the initial meeting. but
the real work of the convention was
to get under way when the general
session opened at 200 o'clock this
afternoon.
Delegates commenced registering
early this morning and up to noon
there had been nearly fifty registra-
tions. The fact, however, that the
main session was not to begin until
later in the day, was the reason that
more did not appear. 1t was expect
ed that before the close Of the day
this number would be doubled and
perhaps tripled.
The officers conference was open
ed in the auditorium shortly after 10
o'clock. This was the first of three
such gatherings to be held during the
convention The officers session to-
morrow will open at 500 a. M, how
ever, and on Sunday it will begin at
900 o'clock. While these conferences
are held pl'imarilv for officers Of the
state, county and district associations,
all of the delegates are welcome to
the sessions and many outsiders took
advantage of this invitation and at
tended this mornings meeting. Prof,
A. NJ. Locker of the International As
sociation in Chicago, has arranged
and is conducting these sessions He
is also holding similar Institutes in
other parts of the United States. In
his conference this morning he fur
nished an unusual amount of new
and important material for Sunday
School workers.
Rev. Leland G. Chase Of Wilder,
Vermont, opened this mornings ses-
sion with a prayer. Following the
close of prayer, Prof. Locker began
his discussion of Sunday School
problems.
Prof Locker thought it wise to
map out a schedule of what to talk
about at the three sessions in order
that he might get furter along He
said he wanted at least twelve county,
district or state officers in his audi
ence and when he came to count them
up he found there We're exactly an
even dozen in the auditorium. His
outline of the work for the three ses-
sions called for a talk on the work
of the president, vice-presdent, secre-
tary and treasurer as regards their
duties and responsibilities on the
