BARI. Italy, Feb. 6.-Naval Lieuten-

o navl engineer, have been arrested at
Brindisi for having tried to induce the
commander of an Italian submarine to
take his craft to Fiume. They are also
accused of having captured ard taken
to Fiumo the steamship laramie, which
was carrying about 100000 lire in gold
($4O0O0O) destined for Italian troops
in Albania. A beautiful woman, twenty
years old, also was arrested, and is be-
leved to have been their accomplicc.
PARIS, Feb. 6.-Hope is entertained
in peace conference circles that if the
Jugo-Slavs should accept Italy's propo-
sition for settlement of the Adriatic
question the Italians will consent to
any notifications that are not consid-
cred vital.
1t is understood the British and
French Ministers at Belgrade, when de-
livering a copy Of the pact of London
to the Jugo- -Siav government, will make
it clearly understood that the only
alternative is between accepting the
Italian proposition without important
changes and strict execution Of the
London agreement.

The American advice, it is made
clear, was not based on any admira-
ton for the Dolsheviki, but was given
on the ground that Poland is unable
to continue her operations to n sue

be better from an economic standpoint
to get the population back to work.
Diplomatic advccs from Warsaw
state that Foreign Minister Patck de-
clares that one Of the most important
questions to be considered in cornec-
ton with the peace proposals Of the
Russian Bolsheviki Is as to what as-
surancc there would be that the Soviet
government would keep it's promises.
The minister also has raised the
question of who would guarantee sup

should make peace with the Boshcviki
and the latter would violate the pact

Soviet Russia is also anxious to re-

School children, the Board of Edu-

This decisive stand was taken by

a statement authorized by the
board reads in part:
AT present, school people and the
public feel strongly that the schools
should be allowed to direct their at
tention exclusively to educational
matters, as before the war. Teachers
find it exceedingly difficult to arouse
the esthusiasm in pupils which, was
once aroused, and parents no longer
respond to the requests for contribu-
tions as they once did-no matter
how worthy the purpose. Every
collection of money made in the
schools means a diverting of atten-
ton of teachers and pupils from
educational work"
Need Greater Activity.
The board pointed out the need
of greater activity in the education
and training of the children, to or
on schooling.

children.
.Osu who are primarily respon-
sible for the efficient education of
the children believe that the time
has come when organizations inter-
ested in philanthropic work should
adopt an entirely different procedure
in the collection of funds. Organ
izations responsible for raising
money should make their appeals di-
rectly to the parents, rather than to
the children through the schools"
The new school administration has
been opposed to drives" in the
schools since the school year began.
