The cars are us- ually crowded at that time and it is usually impossible to get a seat while between Plainville and New Britain. The trolleys were not crowded last turday, however, and the company seems to be losing ils patronage among local residents. The jitney buses are reaping a har- vest at the expense of the Connecticut company, being loaded on every trip. They are running on experimental schedules, planning their running time from act trips.

Reports were received evening from the team captains who are carrying on the Red Cross mem- bership drive. The reports showed that only $500 had been received at that time.

George's hint in Loundon, M. —Premier his Guildhall speech Saturday night of an attempt to nego- tiate peace with the Bolgheviki in Rus- has created a stir here. The anti- Bolshevik press is indignant over the suggestion. Lioyd The Daily Mail scouts the idea as “shaking hands with murderer,” and generally tlan which, mazement in political circles 'ph and the Morning Post le to the proposal. Referving to the pa of the speech dealing with the possibility of | peace with Russia, the Chronicie, spe- | clal champion of the premier, declares | it is *not free from obs curity. Some may see in it,” the Chroni- | cle continues, “‘suggestion of returning | to the Prinkipo policy: we do not, | however, read it in quite that sense.’ The Daily News, which is antagonis- { tic 1o the premier and strong in favor | of making peace with the Bolsheviki, | accuses Lloyd George of inconsistency and insincerity in all his dealings with | Russia. The newspaper contends the terms which the soviet government is known fo be willing to accept are es- sentially reasonable. 1t declares a sin- cere attempt at peace ought to be suc- cessful though if the Bolsheviki meet with military successes they may be tempted to put the price of peace higher than they are putting it today.” “The determination of labor to end intervention in Russia has at last taught the premier that labor is more to be feared than a reactionary press,” savs the flerald, labor organ. The newspaper calls upon labor to force the government to malke peace on the Soviet terms. Some commentators remark on what they call the apparent discrepancy be- tween Lloyd George's treatment of the Russian problem and the speech of Winston Churchill in the house of commons Wednesday which the war minister demanded the fullest sup- port of Admiral Xolchak and Gen. Denikine. They contend the two ut- terances are divergent in sense and spirit. and ask which correctly repre- sefs the government’s policy. The discoveries resulting from raids on Soviet quarters in the United States are said by anti-Bolshevik papers to be proaf of the danger of dealing with the Bolsheviki. a denounc it savs, s the sugges- | caused great | The are NEW YORK PRINT HOPS REOPE Publishers and Striking Printers Lock Horns in Initial Test of Strength.
