 Mir. Smith compared "the war record" of Dempsey, who, he said, acted as a labor scout for a ship yard, with that of Georges Car pentier, the French champion, who risked his life in battle and won the highest possible honors.
 All red blooded Americans should blush with shame when Dempsey's war record is mentioned" he com eiuded.

SUSTAINED THRUST OF AGAINST
 BOLSHEvIK| SUCCEEDS
Offensive Continues on Wide Front-Advance of 15 Miles Reports-Reds
 Rushing Achievements
IRepubIican A. p. Leased wire1

RIGA. Sunday, Jan. 1.-The general attack begun Friday by the Let's and Poles, with Rzezytsa (Reishitsa) as their objective, was reported today to be progressing favorably along the en- tire front, with an average advance of about 15 miles. The bolsheviki are rapidly bringing up endorsements, es- pecially on the left flank, where the fighting is severe.
 By the capture of Dvinsk, after a preliminary operation begun January l, considerable rolling stock was taken, which the Let's and Poles are sharing equally with other booty. One hundred captured freight cars and several en- zines have passed through Riga for Poland.
 Snow Flinders Offensive
 The lack of rolling stock has de- layed the offensive. owing to the diffi- culty of bringing supplies and ammuni ton through the snow.
 In statement to the Associated Press the Lettish foreign minister, M. Meirmwitch, declared that the only ob- ject of the offensive was to retake Letgalia, which is claimed as part of Letvia- Confirming the report that ne- gotiations had been undertaken with the bolsheviki at Dorpat, he said that Letvia had endeavored to effect an amicable settlement of the Letgalia question before resorting to military measures. IetN1a Ol1ereQ, IT the pol sheviki would withdraw from Letgalia, to give assurances that Russia would not be attacked. The bolsheviki re- fused and the offensive was begun before a conclusion with Esthonia would enable the bolsheviki to divert their troops from the Esthonian to the Lettish front.
 We will not consider peace with the bolsheviki," said the minister, ''un- til our frontier is cleared and some form of democratic government is es- tablished in Russia"
 Letvia would continue strictly to conform with the allied policy, he added.
 Preparatory to taking the offensive, | Letvia endeavored to strengthen her internal position by determined efforts to stamp out the spreading bolshe | vik Several hundred bolshevik agents were rounded up, principally in Riga and Lfbau, and many of them were | dealt with. The prisoners Anton Ketteroff, a bolshevik courier, on his way from Moscow 10 New York.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. - T h e movement for congressional investiga- ton into awards of army investiga- tions produced a stormy scene in the house today, during which a resolution by Representative Ga1livan, democrat, Massachusetts, calling on Secretary Baker was adopted.
 The fight centered largely about MT. Gallivan'S attack on General March, chief of staff, and other officers as- signed to duty in Washington during the war. The chief of staff and others attacked were defended by other mem- bers.
 'The house ought not to acQuiesce in the attack on General March and other officers of the army" declared Representative Moore. democrat Vir- ginia. concluding the debate with an appeal for rejection of the resolution. which on roll call was adopted 1S3 to 123. Most of the democrats op- posed it.
 Representative Ga1livan urged an adoption of his measure as the start ton into the awards of war honors; declaring that proportionately more officers in Washington received dis dnguished service medals than those in the front lines The services of all lounge lizards of the Second Army of the Potomac" were recognized with decorations. Gallivan charged, includ- ing former chiefs of staff, who he said were removed for inefficiency.
 Several other members 1auded the chief of staff for his fairness and ef- ficiency. declaring he was entitled to any honors conferred on him.

A. p. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, Jan- 13.-The coal strike settlement commission was en- abled to begin its actual work of con- sidering and adjudicating claims of bitrminous miners for advanced wages and shorter working hours to- day by agreement of operators in the central competitive field to participate and abide by the decision Of the com mission.
 The commission immediately called John L. Lewis, acting president, and other representatives of the mine workers to present the case for the men.
 Lewis and his associates set forth demands as presented before the strike last November for a 60 per cent in crease in wages, a 30-hour working week, and six other concessions. Straightforwardly they told the com mission they were not attempting merely to obtain for the miners in creases over their wartime wages to compensate them for increased cost of living, but to get them enough for per manently raised standards of living.
 Home Environment Low
 The miners standards of living, so cial position and the environment in which they must raise their children have ever been too low" said Lewis.
 Ralph Crews. counsel for the central field committee. made the reservation that the operators could not legally participate in & coal price fixing agreement unless it were provided that such an agreement would expire with the Lever food and control act.
 The operators. Crews added. consid- cred that the commissions award "ot Itself would constitute a binding and final wage agreement between miners and employers President Robinson of the commission immediately pointed out that President Wilson's letter cre- atfng the commission empowered it only to make an award which would serve as basis upon which a new wage agreement can be made"
 To Hold Daily Sessions
 Mir Crews agreed to accept for the operators whatever construction the commission chose to place on the words and to waive the receipt of answers to a series of ten questions which the operators yesterday sub- mftted to the committee.
 President Robinson announced tha. the commission would sit each day. would allow cross examination of all persons appearing before it. and would accept arguments or briefs, not only from the miners and operators, but also from others interested.
 At the conclusion of the formal ses- representing the coal fields in the field for informal conversation.
 The miners presented a number Of complaints with reference to the If per cent increase granted to the men on returning 10 work.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 13.-The case of Harry New. alleged murderer of his fiancee, .Freda L.esser, tonight was in the hands of the jury.
 Thomas Lee Woolwine. district att torney, closed the arguments for the state this afternoon. Superior Judge Gavin w. Craig occupied 20 minutes in reading his instructions on the legal points involved and the jury then re- tired to deliberate whether New was insane, as the defense contended. when he shot and killed Miss Freda Lesser on the night of July 4 last. or whether. as the prosecution contended, the kill ing was a cold -blooded murder and as such punishable by life Imprisonment or death
 The case went to the jury much sooner than had been expected. largely because of a sudden change in plans by the defense. This resulted in the of argument by John L.. Richardson of deefnse counsel, and the of the final argument by Lecompte Davis, leading defense coun- sel. to a little more than 20 minutes.
 The district attorney charged the defense with trickery in that the sud- cen change in it's procedure left him 
 MT. Woolwine denounced New as a "cold- -blooded murderer" and declared there was no foundation for the de- fense' contention of insanity. He char acterized the defense of insanity as a ''last-ditch defense" employed by guilty men who have nothing else to advance in their behalf
 The prosecutor. shortly before he closed. placed a picture of Miss Lesser on the attorneys table close to the jury, and also shoked it the revolver with which New is alleged to have murdered the girl and articles cf bloody clothing she had worn.
 This brought a bitter protest from Davis, who charged it was misconduct on woolwine's part.
