FOCH TO STOP
REDS IF POLE
ARMYFALTERS
By Carl D. Groat.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Spa, Belgium, May 12.-Pending
the outcome fo negotiations for peace
between Poland and Bolshevist Rus
sia, the supreme allied council today
instructed Marshal Foch to mobilize
all allied forces for possible interven-
ton on the Russo-Polish front. 10
was earned on good authority today
that should the Russian red forces
continue their advance into Poland,
allied armies will render every pos
sible aid to the Polish defenders after
the Bolsheviki have crossed the ar
mistice line fixed by the treaty of Ver-
sailles.
Polish Premier Grabsta, who is one
of the premiers here for the confer
ence with German officials, today te!e-
graphed General Pilsudski at War
saw to Immediately open peace nego-
tiations with the Lenine-Trotsky
armies. Grabsta instructed the Polish
commander to submit proposals for
an armistice, by which war would be
suspended until Russo-Polish Difficult
ties can be Strengthened out.
Military advices show the relentless
advance of the Bolsheviki against
stubborn opposition by the Poles,
caught in the "pincher" movement by
which the line was broken from it's
eastern and western ends. Marshal
Foch's instructions are to wait until
the Bolsheviki cross the armistice line,
and then to oppose them with all
available allied forces.

Union Transfers Will Haul

Piers Under Agreement
Made With Employers
Men Went Out in March
Longshoremen Struck First
and Drivers Quit in
Sympathy With Them

James j. Riordan, president Of the
United States Trucking Corporation,
announced last night the settlement of
New Works long drawn out dock strike,
which was inauguratcd last March and
has proved to be one Of the most bit
terly contested labor wars the city has
ever known.
Riordan's statement said that an
agreement had been reached whereby
the union transfers will haul freight
from the piers Of the coastwise steam
crs. The truckmen, it was announced,
would be at work on tho piers to-day.
The striking dock workers, it also was
announced, would meet o-morrow-night
in St. Vcronica's Hall, Washington and
Barrow streets, and formally vote to
end the strike.
The coastwise longshoremen struck
on March ~, after demanding wage
increase of Is cents an hour. The
truckmen, working on the coastwisc
piers, organized sympathy strike, and
a serious deadlock was threatened. A
citizens committee, supported by pow
erful commercial bodies, organized the
Citizens Trucking Company which pro-
vided sufficient trucks and men to move
the freight on coastwise piers. This
company will now cease active opera
ton.
In his statement of the agreement
Riordan said:

Lava Under Ranger Field?

Biologists believe that continued Oil
operations in the Ranger field, should
they attain a depth Of one mile under
the surface, will prove the existence
OF a live lava bed, a Ranger (Tex)
correspondent of the New York Eve
ming Sun writes. In the region OF
Caddo oil drillers have discovered that
bits of the drills show evidences Of in
tense heat within $500 feet of the
surface, and the heat at that depth is
sufficient to discharge shots of nitro
glycerin without the use of a fulmi'
mating cap.
A popularity of the Ranger field in
Stephens county is the number of Gre
vases encountered in drilling through
the black lime. These crevasses are
alled more or less with oil-yielding
sand and when this sand Is shot
the flow of petroleum rushes to the
surface. Whether this rush is aided
by the subteuhnean heat is problem.

has a great deal to do with the rush

GOT FACTS SLIGHTLY MIXED
Representative Osborne Evidently Had
Not Taken Keen Notice OF Posi-
tion Of Sherman Statue.

One of the best speeches in the
house in years came from Representa-
tive Osborne of California the day Of
the Pershing parade, says the Los An
geles Times. Having been one of the
soldiers who marched up Pennsylva-
mia avenue at the close Of the Civil
war for a final review by General
Sherman, he was able to draw beau
tiful and striking contrast with the
return of the veterans of 1919.
At one point In the address the rep
resentative spoke feelingly Of how
Sherman, at the head Of the column,
at Fifteenth street and Pennsylvania
avenue had turned on his horse and
looked back at the advancing veter-
ans.
"Thus," said Mr.. Osborne, 'the fig
ure of Sherman, cast in bronze, sits to-
day at the head of Pennsylvania ave-
nue., as he sat that day more than ff-
ty years ago.
The reference to the Sherman statue
aroused great interest and many were
the pilgrimages made to the statue
within the next few days to see how
Sherman looked gazing down the ave-
nue.. But horror of horrors! 1t de-
veloped that Sherman was looking not
toward the advancing column, but to-
ward the White House, which stands
in an opposite direction.
Now Osborne is looking for the man
who placed it thus.
