Washington, Aug. 23.—Ambassador Morris who was sent by the state de- partment from Tokio to Omsk to re- port on conditions in Siberia has ad- vised the government here that the next 30 days probably will see a crisis in the affairs of the Kolchak govern- ment. He reported that Admiral Kol- chak has had to devote so much atten- tion to the military campaign against the Bolsheviki that he has been unable to organize sufficiently the civil gov- ernment and administration in Siberia to keep the people contented. Never- theless, he added, Kolchak is the best man for the task confronting him and that it is a question of his successor or the triumph of the Bolsheviki. Lack of material aid from the Allies has been a great handicap for Koi- chak the report states and this has led to friction between the military commanders of the Kolchak forces. Military authorities in Paris and here, however, agree the Bolsheviki are making their last desperate effort against the Kelchak troops and if they fail this time the Soviet government in Russia will collapse. Recognition of the Kolchak gov- ernment if it succeeds in surviving thé 30 days has been urged by Am- ador Morri: it is said. To make this recognition effective it s understaod the ambassador ha urged that this government be read to assist in the negotiation of loans for the Siberian government and to dis patch additional arms and ammuni- tion and later food and clothing. HASS HEETING TOMORROW Ir Weather Prevents Holding Open- Air Gathering of F. I. F., Palacc Theater Will Be Utilized.

A number of local and visiting clergymen, as well as prominent workers in the interes of Irish freedom, will have seats on the speakers’ platform. Rev. John J.

Stebbins for operating a motor . ve- hicle without having an operator's license. Niedwicki will be arraigned before Judge Meskill Monday morn- ing on this charge. The accused is the owner of an American touring car and some time ago was arraigned in the Bristol court on a charge of reckless driving following a collision | with Fred Winkle's car. His license was suspended at that time and has not been restored to him as yet. The trial of the case may give rise to discussion on a fine point of law. Niedwicki has had a licensed oper: tor with him at all times since card was taken from him, and this fact may cover the law. He contends that there is no difference between a man who has no license driving a car while heing taught the rudiments of driving and a man driving after his license is suspended if there is a li- censed operator with him OPEN LETTER T0 FRANCE Members of First Division of A, E.
