maid service is required, it will be
furnished by the owner.
Every apartment is an outside
apartment, seven of which have pri-
vate sun balconies.
FINE APPOINTMENTS.
One is particularly impressed on en-
tering the Oakland Arms. The tile
floors and other appointments imme-
diately appeal to those who demand
business efficiency as well as home
atmosphere in their abode. Mr.. Mat
thews has his private office on the
first floor, where information will be
dispensed and special clerk will dis.
tribute man to the individual mail
boxes. There are also private inter-
phones so that callers may commune
cate with any tenant prior to visiting
an apartment.
On the second floor in the center OF
the building is the general reception
room, beautifully furnished with stuff
fed wicker furniture. This reception
room will be for the use of tenants
and their guests.
IN DEMAND.
Due to the fact that the Oakland
Arms is so close to the heart of the
city, combined with the fact that all
the latest conveniences, including Frig-
idaire are provided for. there has been
an exceptional demand for the apart
ments and several of them were re-
served long before the building was
completed. Mr.. Matthews hopes to
open the Oakland Arms for public in
spection this week.
Henry T. Matthews the owner, is
one of the best known business men in
San Antonio, having been identified
with many big projects as well as be-
/ ing a prime mover in all matters
which pointed toward the progress and
prosperity of this community.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-Informa-
ton has reached the Associated
Press pointing to direct participa-
ton OF the Russian Soviet in an
Impending armed struggle for con-
troll of China.
Preparations have already been
made which contemplate a civil war.
The major proportions centering
in the Northern Provinces, dwarf
in importance the present sporadic
disturbances in the South.
Ultimate political consequences
can only be coniectured.
The area of the probable opera
tions are also only conjecture.
The greatest interest concerns
Japan and the aid of the Soviet
behind Feng Yu Shiang, leader of
the faction least friendly to Toxic.
Chang Tso Lin is opposing Feng.
He is reported to have the moral
if not the physical support of Japan
and such struggle might easily
approximate a war between Japan
and Russia with Feng and Chang
campaigning respectively in Moscow
and Toxic.
SUPPLIES ARE MOVING.
The furnishing of supplies is al
ready under way.
Arms and ammunition have been
sent across the frontier from Russia.
The Russian army instructors have
gone to Mongolia and are already
cooperating with Feng's officers and
the Russian envoy in Peking is
reported to have given open en-
couragement to the forces of unrest
in a manner that has incurred the
strong displeasure of the diplomats
of the great World Powers.
