With what we like to consider the
true American spirit, the people OF
Pueblo already are at work restoring
! their city after the devastating flood
that swept through that part of Colo
RADIO. The National Guard is policing
the area of destruction, which en-
braces about 296 square miles, and all
week supplies of food and clothing
were being rushed in by all possible
means of conveyance. 1t is not likely
the number of dead ever will be known
accurately, but it probably reached
5O0 In addition to the immense prop
erty damage in Pueblo and other
towns, much of the crops and the live
stock in the flood area was destroyed.
IL
ly disorganized sanitation of the re-
gion were allayed by the prompt work
Of the medical corps. The American
Red Cross has undertaken the COM
plete rehabilitation of the Hood
stricken sections, and it has issued
national appeal for funds that is
meeting with the generous response
always given in such instances. The
railways, of course, are carrying the
relief supplies free.
The British troops in Upper Silesia
are making quick work of pushing the
insurgent Poles back out of the dis
puted region and, according to re-
ports, they are doing it without any
| fighting, for Korfantys men know re-
Sistance would be worse than useless.
The French are looking on, hoping
that the interests of the Poles, with
whom they sympathize will not suf-
fer. Meanwhile the German defense
forces, which are under the command
of General Won Hoefer, have ceased
their advance In one sector, but have
kept going forward in another, taking
Slaventitz, Kandrzin and Ujest after
bloody fights with the Poles and APP
preaching close to Gleiwitz, which Is
called the key to industrial Upper 81
lesia. Gross Strehiitz, which is held
by French garrison, was surrounded
by the Germans on three sides.
After the German high court had
convicted two minor defendants of
cruelty to British prisoners during the
war and given them Jail sentences, 1t
took up the case of Submarine Com
mander Neumann, accused of sinking
the British hospital ship Dover Cas-
tie. On his plea that he was merely
obeying the order of his superiors he
was acquitted, and consequently, 1t is
now reported, the court intends to
bring to trial the admiralty chief or
chiefs who gave the orders to Neu-
mann and the other submarine COM
manders whose cases are pending.
The allied council Of ambassadors
has sent to Berlin letter taking cog
nizance of the good will of the Ger
man government In its efforts to full
fill its undertakings under the peace
treaty, and granting a delay until
September 30 for the transformation
of the Diesel submarine motors to
civilian industry. From Munich came
the word that the Bavarian citizens
guard has decided to disarm vofuntar-
lily by June 80, in compliance with the
ultimatum of the allies. This relieves
Berlin of one great worry.
The new parliament Of northern Ire
land-or Ulster-met In Belfast on
Tuesday and was formally organized.
Mai. Hugh O'Neill, descendant of the
famous O'NeiIls of Irish history, was
elected speaker and six Of Ireland's
thirty-two counties were put on a self
governing basis. Viscount F1tzalan,
the British viceroy and Catholic,
opened the proceedings. OF the SO
members elected 40 were present. The
others are nationalists and Sim Fem
ers, who refuse to recognize the par
Dali Eireann, the revolutionary par
lament which claims to represent all
of the Emerald Isle. The experiment
of the British government In thus d.
viding Ireland will be watched with
intense interest by the world
Bands Of men supposed to be Sim
Feiners made bold and ingenious at
tempt Wednesday night to isolate
London by cutting all the telegraph
and telephone wires running out OF
the city. They succeeded to consid-
cradle extent. A similar attempt was
made In Liverpool.
