Fifty imcrpreters from the United

needed before January 1, 1919. it is
calculated that for each of the one

‘ General Gaida‘s Czecho—Slovaks fight

lag their way through 2,600 miles of
hostile territory furnishes a tale no
less thrilling than that related or Cor-
tes’ drive from Vera Cruz to the an
clent Aztec capital is the sixteenth
century. Like his illustrious predeces-
sor, he saw his forces grow as his suc—
088585 multiplied, but his successes,
also like those of the adventurous Span-
iard, were due to his unflagging cour-
age and ingenious tactics and to the
loyalty of his men.

When the order came from Perograd

for the free movement of the Czecho—

\‘olga to \ladivostok. A ”day truce

Irkutsk, when the Bolsheviki under-
took to disarm a trainload of Czechs,
applied only to Eastern Siberia and
was utilized by Gaida‘s men to set a

the thickest of the struggle. Thereof.

ties to clean up the line westward to
tile Urals.

Meantime ,with resumption of hos-
tilities to the eastward the Czech-Slo-
vak forces between Krasnoyarsk and
lrkutsk found themselves bard press-1
ed and near to the end of their re—|
sources. Kadlets doubled back east-1
ward and by a series of flanking move:
ments, falling upon the Bolsheviki in
the night, stampeded them. time after
time. In this way he pushed through
to the relief of his countrymen at
Krasnoyarsk and Irkutsk.

From Irkutsk to the southernmost
point of Lake Baikal there are forty-
one tunnels. it was the Czechs’ aim
to clear out the Bolshevlkl without
giving them time to blow up these tun-
nels and, to that end, they started a
small contingent overland to surprise
the Bolslicvlkl beyond the series of
tunnels. These men marched four
days under greatest difficulties. They
became so pressed for food supplies
that they had to eat their horses. But
they accomplished their object. They
attacked the Bolsllovllti in the middle
of the night, captured their machine
guns and started them northward in
disorder. The Bolshevikt suooooded
in blowing up one funnel the last one
in the series.

The Czechs and their Russian allies
now had a clear track to the southern
extremity of the lake, to a village
named Slujianka, where the blocked
tunnel presented a sol-lot obstacle to
further progress. They dragged a few
light guns over the ridge and marched
several oontingenls of troops around
the obstruction only to find the Bolshe—
viki massed in force some twenty
miles beyond. The Czechs and Rus-
sians suffered heavy losses in the
fighting here and were forced back to
within a few miles of the tunnel.

Meantime the Czechs had cleared
the tunnel sumciently to pass troops
through, on foot. (lenernl Golda. who
had succeeded Colonel Kadlcts in
emnlltalid, caused decoy messages to
fall into the enemy's hands, begging
for help and declaring that the tunnel
was hopelessly blocked and he in des-
perate straits. surrounded and at the
end of his resources. The Boislievlki
thereupon moved southward, in high
,splrits, throwing aside all caution.
Bands played and their progress was
in the nature of a tf‘iumphal march. l

A few miles flom the-tunnel they
ran into an ambush which completely
demorallzeu them. Machine guns rak-
ed them from the hillsides and field
guns shelled them from and rear. A
tattered remnant of the llolsllevik
army lied northward with the few
trains they were able to save.

thus detected will then be reported by
the State Council to the proper mili-

"The very widest publicity shouldbe
given to this new order of the War De

edge of the fact that information cou-
cernlng deserters is disseminated in
this Way will greatly discourage deser—
tion." says 'a Government bulletin to

General P. C. Harris, Adjutant General
of the United States Army, pointed out
that by cooperation with the several
State Councils of Defense the appre
hension of deserters will be much ia-
cilitated, inasmuch as the State Coun-
cils have branches reaching to all coni-
inunities in their respective states. in
this connection it is desired that the
payment of the authoribed rewards or
expenses be expedited in every possi-
ble way: General Harris directed
commanding officers to render to the
State Councils concerned a bi-weekly
report containing the full name. rank

soldier's home address, explanation as
to‘wlleihel' the soldier is absent with-
out leave or in desertion, and a list of

WOMEN CAN AID

—.-—

every woman charged with maintain»
ing a home and family will benefit to
an even greater extent.

Mr. Hurley's letter follows:'

"What can women do for the Ameri-
can Merchant Marine?

“What can the. American Merchant
Marine do for women!

“More and more the women of the
United States create the influence
which We call “public opinion." and
which shapes and guides the policies
of the Nation. American women sup-
ported peace until they saw that war
was necessary in defense of immunity.
Then they threw themselevs into war
wholeheartedly. When peace returns
they will throw themselves into the
intricate problems of reconstruction.
Women want to know, always, before
they act. ln thousands of study clubs

and similar organizations they are con-l

ltantly seeking to learn facts about
public questions. When they know.
then they act. and generally on the
”Slit side.

"The American Merchant Marine
will be one of the biggest factors in
reconstruction. War has led us to
think in world terms. After the war
we must serve the world with our
ships. help other nations develop by
purchasing their products, and pay for
their products with our goods. We are
building, a merchant fleet of about 25,-
000,000 tons of shipping. Ships alone
will not. make an American Merchant
Marine. There must be, public support.
and wise laws. based on popular un-
derstanding. The reason we have not
had ships since the Civil War, and
then only ten per cent. of our world
trade was carried in American ships.
is that we have not been ship-minded.
Public opinion did. not think ships.
Now we must think ships, and then
we will have them. The connection is
absolutely clear—4n so for as women
help make American public opinion
they can help establish and maintain
the American Merchant Marine.
