DREAIIER STAMBOULISKY of Bull
L garia had some private conferences
with NJ Tchitcherin of Russia when
they were at Genoa, and the result APP
pears To be that the Bulgarian govern
ment, formerly the declared opponent
of bolsheyism, has changed front and
will line up with the soviet republic and
make its international policies conform
to those of Russia, Germany and Tur-
key. This will not only present a
solid combination against the allies
and the little entente, but also will
have its effect on the Thracian ques-
ton, for the Bulgars have always sided
with the Turks against the Greeks
there.
The Bulgarian communists started
some kind of an uprising a few days
ago and at first 1t was reported they
had seized the government and that
King Boris was "a fugitive. This was
false, and it appeared the row was
mainly an attempt by the communists
to force the removal of Wrangels anti
bolshevik Russians from the country.
! The rebels really did begin march
on Sofia, but the army remained loyal
and drove them off.

THE house has not yet acted on the
resolution providing for congress
sional investigation of war fraud
charges, which was introduced by
Representative Woodruff of Michigan.
Senator Norris of Nebraska was
quoted as saying that if the house did
not speedily pass this resolution,
similar one would be introduced in the
senate from the Republican side. Alto
gether, the situation of the attorney
general is decidedly uncomfortable.

NOTHING doing yet in the matter
~ Of a senate bill for soldiers
bonus. The Republican members Of
the finance committee last week found
themselves evenly divided between
Smoots plan for paid-up insurance
policies and McCumber's plan for GER
tlticates on which the service men
could borrow. 1t was thought for a
time that President Harding might ex-
press a preference, but he evidently
was determined the senators should
extricate themselves as best they might.
Then the Republicans decided to call
in the Democratic members of the
committee to aid in drafting a bill. II
was said the Democrats rather favored
the McCumber plan.

CHARLES II. CRANE Of Chicago,

is a great traveller but he is not likely
for some time to visit France or any

from Syria that a French military

to twenty years in prison. \ woman

AMERICANS ARE
FLOODING HOLY LAND
THOUSANDS OF TOURISTS Wis
1T PALESTINE SCENES. EX-
PECTED TO SPEND 100000.

TAFFA.-American tourists are lit
orally occupying Palestine this season.
Two thousand OF them have already
visited the country and 5000 more are
expected to arrive.
1t is estimated that Palestinians will,
as a result, benefit financially by a
sum of not less than 100000.
Every emp1oye in the government
of Palestine from Sir Herbert Samuel,
the high commissioner, down to the
humblest railway porter is making 1t
his special business to please the
Americans. Special trains are run for
their CONVENIENCE, private homes are
turned over for their accommodation
because of the scarcity of hotels, and
even private cars are placed at their
disposal.
Government agents are also detailed
to see that no undue advantage is ia
ken of these welcome visitors, so that,
returning home, they will carry with
them only words of praise
The short stay of the Americans in
the holy land is the only fault that the
natives find with their guests. They
feel that FIVE or six days is insufficient
time in which to see all the historical
places.
To prove their point they cite an in
cident that occurred last year while a
company OF tourists were visiting in
Nazareth. One American was heard
to ask an accompanying friend the
name of the place they were in; the
friend quickly looked at a schedule he
was carrying, then at his watch and
replied: at is now 10 o'clock, so it
must be Nazareth"
