W. Kingsland Macy, chalrman of the Buffolk county republican com- mittee, has sent a letter to every re- publican member of the legi and all republican county chairmen urging such an investigation. Crown Arrogant “That the powers i great metropolis grown more than usually arrogant of late is gen- erally recognized by the public,” Mr. Macy wrote. He sald he believed Governor-clect Franklin 1. Roose- velt, a democrat, would favor such an inquiry. There have been frequent charges that political influences sposible for the appare polce in seeking Rothstein's lerer or murderers. Mr. Macy suggested as the prose- cutor of such an inquiry former Governor Charles 8. Whitman, for- mer United States Attorncy mory R. Buckner of the present United States Attorney Charles H. Tuttle. ‘Whitman was elected governor after successful prosecution of the murderers of Herman Rosenthal, who held a place comparable to Rothstein's in New York's gambling world.

The city of Lwow, which is the gate to the cast, was undergoing about the same experiences that the fa- mous fortress of Verdun underwent on the western front from the be- " i ginning of the World War until its {end. Russian and Ukrainian forces seized the opportunity of German- Austria evacuation of troops in the the war and came | within the walls of the city. There | was no organtzed army at the time nd school children, as well as the hers, came to the defense of the city of their birth, hundreds of them | giving their lives and blood. | The lieutenant's life of service to { her country reads like a story book.

' Later she was taken prisoner again, wounded on the battlefield. As soon as she regained conscious- |ness and found herself in the hands of the enemy, she set about think- ing of means of escape. When the ! opportune moment came, she stole {the bolshevik commander's horse {and made for the front, reaching the |lines of her compatriots safe and | | sound.

During the late war the fam- | ily of Nowosielskis gave twelve | members for service in the war and | lonly four returned. l | While pursuing a military career, Mrs. Nowosielska continued her studies and successfully passed her examinations for a college degree. When the war between Poland and Russia was ended she gave up her time to physical culture and was in- structor in girls’ camps throughout Poland, in which work she is now interested. She is now in this country to study American methods so that she may gain a better knowledge of this phase of educa. tion. 18 Die in Auto Accidents in Mass. | Boston, Dec. 10 (UP) -Eighteen persons were killed in automobil: |accidents in Massachusetts last week, according to the report of George A.
