After agree- ing to surrender, he musses up the plot in true comic epera style by making no effort to disband his force and retiring to the estate where he was to live at ease with his fifty faithful retalners. Judging from all his past perform- ances, it cannot be said that anything the Mexican bandit chief might do would be surprising, but the surprising thing is the complaisant way in Wwhich Mex- ico-and the United States view the blackmail scheme which Villa has so successfully worked. There have been humiliating situations into . which we have been led by our dealings with the government to the south of us, but pos- sibly the most humiliating is this where, we have nothing to say while the man who raided New Mexico secures a prac- tical blackmail fund of millions for the asking and an immunity bath so far as the present government of Mexico is IRCULATION WEED ENDING AUG. 7th, 1920 0919 {IREOR FOR BOLSHEVISTS Lenine and Trotzky need frem no doubts about how they est of the world, Secretary held the mirror up where Jection could be seen when i the request of the govern-. for a statement of the po- United States upon the lon “The existing regime said, “is based upon the principle of honer and o 1o o | concerned.

So a natural tendency was strengthened. New we are finding out that we must “do something” for the farmer—and we are doing it.

I had not heard a word from her since we were stationed to- gether at Vaviucourt last year. “When did you come east?”’ I asked. “Will you be here lomg, Joyce? You must let me entertain for you.” “Thank _ygu,. Lucile, but that is im- possible,” sie said. “My time is limited. Yow'll pardon me if T hurry to a lunch- eon engagement, won't you?” She smiled aloofly, and left me rather stunned. 1 was more astonished when I saw In an evening paper that she was passing a fortnight with the Wendlosses on the north shore. It can't be possible that she and Major Wendloss are engaged. | After not enly working with me “overt there,” but even sharing the same bil- let, I cannot understand her being so frigidly rude to me. She was rather a “difficile” person in the A. E. F. days. I well remember how cross she used to be when I sat up late attending to my correspondence. She often complained peevishly that the light kept her awake. “We didn't come over here to write letters all the time,” she said one night. “When you seribble till nearly morning you don’t get up till nearly moon thie next day. I rise at reveille.” ‘Well,” T returned sweetly, “Ill soon put out the light. I've just finished tfils letter to Maj. Wendloss.” “May. Wendloss! I thought you were at least writing home.” “You are always rough on the officers, Joyce” 1 said “and you often insinuate that I neglect the enlisted men, but right now I have a delightful little plan in my head. Let's have a candy pull for the boys who are so helpful in the hut. We can crowd ten or twelve into this room and I'm sure we can make candy on this ‘funny, little tile stove. Don't you think it would be a lark tomorrow night?” “Um-m, y-es, what did you say, Lu- cile?” She fell asleep. The next afternoon T “wangled” some sugar from the secretary who had charge of our sunplies, and I invited the guests. Joyce was busy making and serving the hot chocolate to the men, so I had no opportunity to_discuss the little party further with hér. As T was coming back from mess that evening Lient Long overtook me in a side car. He asked me if I would go to Conde en Barrois. FRCM LUCILLE'S DIARY ““They are getting 4p an impromptu dance in the chateau there for some of- ficers from the S. O. S. and Capt. Clark has just telephoned to let me in on it, Will you go in this limousine?" “What fun!” I exclaimed. “Of eourse.” “Then we must start at once, for it's to be a small and early.” I saw he was impatient to be off, so T let him help me into the side car, and away we went. I had a glorious time, enjoying every minute until I arrived at my billet at about 12 o'clock. “Good gracious, Lucile, Where in the world have you been? I haven't slept & wink,” groaned Joyce. “Why, I just went over to Conde with Looey Bill Lang. I couldn’t say no te him, when girls were in such demand. . T felt it my duty to ge.” “What about your duty to the guests ¥ou_invited here?’ little , affair entirely escaped my mind until it was too late to turn back. I consoled myself with the thought that you know how to make candy much better than I Did you find the sugar?” Yes; when I finally came home, Lu- cile, after one of the men you had in- voted came up to the hut to see What had happened to the party. I was play- ing_accompaniments when Red Johnson whispered to me about it. I exeused my self and came right down here and did the best T could. I think the boys had a pretty good time, though they thought your absence strange.” “Why weren't vyou here them?’ T asked. “I didn't know that we Were having a varty tonight. “Why, Joyee Winters, T talked to yeu about it last nizht.” “I was so frightfully sleepy and tired that T didn’t really take it in,” she re- plied coldly. From that time our intercourse became strained. Although 1 endeavored _to be most amiable, she was mot respbnsive. Indeed she was So stiff that I was real- ly glad when T was called to Paris for reassignment. I am sure that I meved oftener -than any other welfare girl in the A. E.

Mr. Edptor: A motorboat magazine published in New York contains in a re- cent issue some excellent pictures of the Yale-Harvard boat race scenes at the upper end of the course. Here is what it has to say in regard to the races: The Yale-Harvard rowing races at New Lon- don, Conn., on the Thames river al attracts large fleets of yachts. This year there were many more motor boats in attendance-than ever before and the photographs are proof that the pub- lic is turning to the boat for recreation. Then the article continued: The most spectacular craft of all this great fleet was a new 50-foot express cruiser, the same boat that was exhibit- ed by the Luders Marine Construction Co. of Stamford, Conn., at last winter's motor boat show. She is shown in one of the pictures running up pretty nearly her maximum speed of 35 miles an hour, probably the fastest express cruiser in the world. As she flew through the wa- ter with a merry party on board ' the craft was the center on which thousands of pairs of eyes focused, in fact several people on small craft trying to get a snapshot nearly fell overboard. The driving power of this boat consists of a pair of model G. R. § cylinder Sterling motors of dual overhead valve tvpe, de- veloping at 1600 R. P. M. over 320 horse power each. We do not know who wrote this de- scription of the “Luders” for that was| the boat's name, but one of the “merry party’ on board referred to was D. C. Perkins of Gales Ferry. and can vouch for the truth of it. After taking a s from the sub base to the lighthouse and back the genial owner, Mr. Luders, con- sented to his taking her up the river through the little channel by the Yale boathouse, around the middle ground at Gales Ferry and down the main ehan- nel, a long cherished ambition. The fastest boat ever on the river. D. C. PERKINS, Gales Ferry, Aug. 10, 1920. The Polish Situation. Mr. Editor: If we are to believe what the press despatches and editorial com- ment on the same has to say about Po- land we would infer that Poland was a greatly wronged country. Practically ail the newspapers are agreed that the allies hould give Poland all the assistance in their power. No hint is ever given that Poland is in the wrong—that there are two sides to the story. Why? Ilecause the powerful banking interests of Yrance, nd and Ameriga who are engineer- ing this deal are suppressing as much of the truth concerning the question as possible. But here and. there a few staunch men who believe in the truth are making their voice heard, and from some of these we are getting the other side of the story. At the time the Pclish rmy was making its drive into Russia The Nation, London, made the following comment: “The nature of the new Polish war against Russia seems hardly yet to have been realized in this country. In view of the desperate condition of all east of the Rhine it can only be regard- el as a crowning disaster. -Oficiallv the allied_governments disclaim responsibil- ity. Unofficially the Poles ar3 receiving support from both France and Great Britain. The French have provided them with a “general staff” picked from amongst the ablest soldiers in France: we are providing them with munitions of all kinds. It is an imperialist adventure pure and simple. Already the Polich as mies are hundreds of miles irside Rus- sian territory and the description of the movement as “defensive” has been frank- 1y abandoned. . . Poland is 1 bankrupt country, pawning her last resourcés in every market in Europe for the sake of obtaining vastly extended frontiers which she can never defend. It is & mad gam- ble, without even the excuse which possibility of winning might - provide. a But mew the Russians have completely smashed the Polish army and the ‘nter- national bankers send out a cry of dis- tress throughout the civilized world. “Free self-determination of all peo- Dples” was the slogan under which the ullies won the war. One of Prasident Wilson's Fourteen Poihts was a free and independent Poland, _with unrestricted access to the sea. But why is Poland among all the other nations the one which has been singled out as the allies’ special protege. The people of Ireland have voted by large majorities for self- determinatio nand are answered by ma- chine guns, arrest. and imprisonment. The people of India cry aloud for self- determination and are answered by ma- oppressive laws with shooting in cold blood on the side. The simple reason is that Poland as a strong independent state backed up by allied capital will form a buffer for the great powerg This is the reason why little countries are created and held in power by the great powers. The Polish people have not as yet had self-determination and as proof of this I will quote Frederic J. Haskins in the Chicago Daily News of Feb, 13, 1919: “The Poles, overjoyed at the prospect of freedorn from the rule of despised na- tions, forgot about the other nations whick were victorious. Poland as an in- ternational factor was lost in the imme- diate glory of Poland as a nation. Thus the Poles heedlessly appointed a social- istic regime, when they suddenly met with an abrupt shock. They could not float & loan in any of the allied nations! Then Paderewski arrived in Warsaw, and challenged the new government. What message the great pianist brought from Paris is not known (!) but evi- dently it was significant. . . . It was agreed that the existing cabinet did not represent all the Poligh people and that a new coalition government must be ap- pointed, with Paderewski as president— a government which could command the support of the allies.” GEORGE E. CAMPBELL. Norwich, Conn., Aug. 8, 1920, (The writer evidently overlooks the words of Lloyd George who says: “The Polish attack (upon Russia) was not justified in our judgment and I sin- cerely regret that it was made in spite of warnings of France and England, and the soviet government are entitled, in our judgment, in any conditions of peace, to take these two facts into accoun Editor.)
