Hythe, England-Great Britain and
France are convinced that the Bolshe-
wiki intend to capture Warsaw and set
up Soviet government in Poland.
This was learned from an official
sources following an announcement at
the conference between Premier Lloyd
George, of Great Britain, and Premier
Millerand of France, held to discuss
the Polish situation, that the confer
ence would continue, when the pre-
miers will pass upon naval, military,
and economic plans for saving Poland.
These plans are being drawn up by
Marshal Foch and Field Marshal Sir
Henry Wilson, chief of the British i'm
nerial staff
Truce Is Turned Down.
These were the outstanding develop
ments and followed an official an
nouncement that the Soviet govern
ment had definitely refused ten days
truce, requested by Mr.. Lloyd George
as a result of the previous meeting
with the Russian mission headed by
NJ. Kameneff and NJ Krassin.
While there has been no talk Of Of
ficially declaring war on Russian, the
Allies have decided to give Poland ali
possible military, naval and economic
assistance without delay
The premiers received two notes
from Moscow in answer to Mr.. Lloyd
Georges request for a true. They
sent another note to the Soviet and
also advised Poland to seek truce
direct from the Bolsheyiki, who indi
Gated in their refusal of the truce
that if the request came direct from
the Poles it might have a better
chance Of being granted. One of the
notes received from the Bolsheviki
said meeting of the Poles and Rus
SLAMS had been called for Minsk in a
few days and that the Bolsheviki pre-
ferred to make their own arrange
ments with the Poles.
To Blockade Russia.
1t was reliably reported that the
blockade of Russia would be reimposed
Immediately.
Mr. Lloyd George has deferred his
promised statement in the House of
Commons for few days.
The French are urging the estab-
lishment of a defensive line in Poland,
either before Warsaw or Immediately
behind the capital if it is too late now
for the former M. Millerand also
proposed that the French and British
troops in the plebiscite areas be used
for this line chiefly for moral sup
port, and that Roumania and Czecho-
Slovakia also be asked to send troops.

Association. The extent of the ac-
tivities OF this association. made up OF
public-splrited citizens, is evidenced by
the fact that the double-barred cross
has been carried into every county OF
the state.
Just at present the Colorado Tuber-
culosls Association and Its thousands
of active supporters are taking stock
Of their definite accomplishments dur
ing the past year. The records show
that public health nursing service has
established contacts by doing practical
work In nineteen counties, outside Of
Denver. These counties have an az
gregate population of over 100000. In
Guiding the very effective work done
by the Denver tuberculosis Society. q
branch of the State Association, the
territory In which this form OF anti
tuberculosis effort has been developed
contains more than half the entire
population of Colorado.
A phase OF public health nursing.
which Is Of the utmost Importance. Is
concerned with the examination OF
school children. In fact, these e1amI-
natlons are In many instances the first
step a community makes towards q
general health survey. Not only Ia
the average community. but In indus
trial sections this form OF survey has
been carried out and one of the nurses
from the State Association examined
the children In twenty-eight Industrial
communities during the past year.
In addition TO the tuberculosis dis
pensaries and clinics In Colorado
Springs and Fort Collins. conducted In
cooperation with the State Associa.
ton. clinics are being organized In
Greeley and Pueblo. Similar clinics
are contemplated In other places until
II is expected that there will be no
less than Il dozen such located in the
various sections of the state. The
clinic In each case Is made possible by
the active cooperation OF local physi-
clans and dentists, who donate their
services free in order that persons
who cannot afford to pay for medical
treatment may have the benefit Of
examinations and treatment. The i'm
portance OF this service cannot be
over-rated since early diagnosis is es-
sentiai If tuberculosis is to be sue
cessfully treated and arrested
But even with a dozen clinics To-
Gated In as many counties OF Colo
RADIO. there still remain sections OF the
state where the population is so thinly
scattered that 1t would be inadvisable
to maintain n permanent clinic. To
meet the requirements of such places,
the Colorado tuberculosis Association
is planning to operate travelling
clinic. In other states, where similar
conditions exist, travelling clinics have
been used with marked success. Such
clinics range from motorcycle with
q side-car. carrying a physician and a
nurse, to a large truck fitted up with
the furnishings of a permanent clinic.
The form which will be adopted in
Colorado has not yet been decided upon.
but II can confidently be said that II
will strike a medium between these two.
Preventive work, especially In the
distribution Of literature explaining
the simple rules of hygiene necessary
to insure health, Is an effective form
Of the activities Of the association.
