GERMANS AND POLES BEGIN THE LONG EXPECTED FIGHT
 FOR SUPREMACY.
FOOD SHORTAGE PROBABLE
Heavy Engagement of Artillery an0' Machine Guns Over Large Area le Reported-Germany Denies
 All Responsibility.

Berlin.-Over crippled telegraph and telephone wires comes reports from Oppeln that the Germans and Poles are engaged in heavy artillery and machine gun firing all along the Oder river, especially in the vicinity of~Krappitz Both sides are entrench-- ing. and the people in several of the towns are panic-stricken.
 While general reports from Upper Silesia indicate considerable rein- forcement of both insurgent and Ger man sides, menacing food shortage in the turbulent area and an exten. sion and intensifying of the conflict, the German government in note to the French ambassador on May 10 made public, denies all responsibility for the disturbances and declines to. comply with the French request to, forward money to pay the miners. which was considered necessary to- forestall possible chaotic conditions. The French note, to which the Ger man memorandum is reply, charged Germany with ordering at too late a date the suppression of volunteer forces against the Upper Silesian
 Poles to prevent the organization of armed forces at Kreuzburg
 Reporting on the German operations 1 in Upper Silesia, the Montag Post has. announced that German plebiscite po- lice stormed Annaburg, which the Po- fish insurgents had held three weeks. The Poles lost three guns. The Ger.
 many also occupied the strategic point of Grosstein, northeast of Anna burg, capturing two mine throwers | and seven machine guns.

FRENCH BRITISH
 BREACH WIDENS
PEOPLE ARE AMAZED AT STRONG LANGUAGE OF LLOYD GEORGE
 AND BRAND.

London.-The freedom with which Premier Lloyd George and Premier Briand are debating the Silesian situ ation through the newspapers, and the strong words they are using, is creating great stir in England. The British public Is accustomed to the courteous and smooth methods of the old diplomacy, and the spectacle of most delicate differences being handled by vigorous public debate amazes the people.
 The heads of the two governments after their numerous conferences were expected to understand each other. Apparently each has chosen the plan of campaign which he considers the most effective against the opponent. M. Briand will have the next woru Ia the French parliament, and there is great interest in London in whether he will maintain the same high key of controversy which MT. Lloyd George started upon in his recent speech in .ne House of Commons.
 The prime minister's unexpected statement is interpreted as a warning to M Briand not to go too far in his procurement before the chamber
 MT Lloyd Georges references to Great Britain's willingness to use her fleet, followed by the declaration that Britain cannot stand by while the treaty is trampled on. is taken as sig. nificant of future developments, de- pending chiefly upon whether M. Briand proclaims widening of the gulf between the policies of the two countries or pictures them as follow ing the same principle.
 The government is anxious to have the Supreme Council meet during the weekend. believing that delay in the allies comign to some sort of an agreement over Silesia and taking ac- tion thereon will only make the situ. ation worse
 ] Reuters limited says: Regret is expressed at the news from Washing ton that the United States govern. ment finds itself unable to partici- | pate in the settlement of the Upper Silesian question on the ground that ~ this is essentially European matters Both from an economic standpoint and from the viewpoint of maintain ing law and order the question with its hands of far7reaching conse- quences Is thought to be one not only of European but of worldwide ir ' portance"

POLISH INSURCFNT
 FORCE CRUMBLINC
RESURRECTION LIKELY TO DisiN TEGRATE IF ALLIES KEEP
 HANDS OFF.

Oppeln.-If left alone the Polish in- surgent movement in Upper Silesia to capture the land lost in the plebiscite would disintegrate, in the opinion of allied officials here.
 Powerful economic forces which the insurgent leaders seem unable to with stand are working toward destroying harmony in their ranks. They are cre- ating a situation which threatens to become acute within few days.
 Expert allied advice sent out from the insurgent territory warns against imminence of German counter of- fensive, saying that such move would be certain to precipitate civil war and would bolster up the Korfantv organi- zation, which under "the less solidify- ing influence of peace would fall to pieces of it's own accord"
 Already many of the miners are turning anti-Korfanty under the eco homie stress. They are accusing him of compelling them to strike over a question they did not understand. Bit. terness is increasing food is diminish. ing, and prices are climbing rapidly. The miners are clamoring for their pay, which Korfanty is unable to fur nish.
 Korfanty's forcible recUuiting is reaping a harvest of wildcats. Many assertions are reported every day, and 1 have met many Poles who said they were deSerfers from Eorfanfv'S army.
 The food situation is not yet acute, but crisis is approaching rapidly. It has ben officially reported that the insurgents have made food rates at Pless and also on isolated places in the industrial area
 Korfanty's boast that he could find an immediate market for Silesian coal in England has not been carried out and coal is accommodating in piles, but is not reaching the market
