People Fight For Standing Room On
All Traina, Out Bound, Even To
Standing Room On Top And
Hanging To Car Coupling.
Warsaw.—A feeling of intense ap-
prehension has spread through the
city as reports circulate that the en-
emy is gradually drawing nearer end
is attempting a huge encircling move-
ment. Crowds are striving to leave
the city by all available means—
carts, automobiles and a few remain-
ing trains.
The difficulties are increased by the
absence of any statement from the
government as to what Is to be done.
There Is absolutely no arrangement
to look after Individuals seeking to
escape from the threatened envelop-
ments. The foreign legations are
gone, so that foreigners must shift for
themselves.
People fight for standing room on
the trains, or for places on the roofs
of cars, or for the privilege of hang-
ing onto the car couplings.
Washington.—Moved by reiterated
pleas for aid from the Polish govern-
ment. the war department had under
serious consideration the request of
Prince Lubomirsky, Polish minister, |
for permission to purchase war mate-
rials from the United States.
After successive conferences be-
tween the Polish minister and Secre-
tary Colby, the state department also
took up the problem of finding means
of invigorating the fast ebbing
strength of the Polish state and the
probability of fulfilling the assurances
of support to the Poles contained in
the recent American not* to the Ital-
ian ambassador.
Polish officials explained that, In
addition to the desire for war mate-
rials, they were anxious to obtain
authorization of the United States to
permit recruiting of Poles in America
for the Polish army. It was said that
not only had many offers of enlist-
ment been reoeived by the legation
from Polish citizens resident lft the
United States, but that many offers
had come from former American vet-
erans of the world war.
While a statute forbids enlistment
of armed expeditions in the United
States for employment against a
friendly power, some officials ex-
plained the president had authority
to suspend operation of the law under
hlB war time powers. The raising of
recruits by Poland under the leader-
ship of Paderewski before the United
Btates entered the war, It was re-
called, was agreed to by the American
government and large numbers of
poles enlisted to fight under the allies
were removed from the United States
kind trained In Canada and abroad.
In order that the United States gov-
ernment may keep In more Intimate
touch with developments In Poland,
Hugh Gibson. American minister to
Poland, who has been home on leave,
will depart for his post In Warsaw.
Mr. Gibson will bo accompanied by
Warren fl. Robbins, acting chief of
the division of Near Eastern affairs,
who has been temporarily assigned a
chancellor of the legation.
The official communique announc-
ing the Intention of the French gov-
ernment to recognize as a de facto
government, that represented by Gen-
eral Wrnngel In southern Russia was
received T;ere tn official circles.
French Move O. K.
Administration officials consider the
French step as logical In view of the
formal succession of General Wran-
gel to the authority of Admiral Kol-
chak and the Omsk government
which was recognized by both France
and Great Britain.
Without foreshadowing a similar
step by the United States officials
declared that the action or France
was tn no way Inconsistent with the
policy towards Russia advocated in
the American note to the Italian am-
bassador.
Paris--Klipsthrioa Constantine Ven-
lzelos, prime minister of Greece, nar*
lowly escaped assassination at the
hands of fellow countrymen as he
was entering the Lyons railway sta-
tion here. He was shot tn the left
shoulder and the right thigh. At the
hospital It wan said his condition was
satisfactory and that he would prob-
ably recover.
The assailants were two former
Greek officers, Georges Thyriakis and
Apostolos Iserppis, both lieutenants.
It had been rumored rn attempt was
to be made on the life of Venlzelos,
and as a consequence the police were
on the watch. They were successful

vers. The miscreants were badly
beaten by the crowd In the station
after the shooting.
The news of the attack on M.Veni-
zelos aroused profound indignation in
Paris, where the Greek premier Is
held in high esteem. President Des-
chanel sent an officer to the hospital
where he was taken to inquire as to
his condition, and M. Palelogue called
at the hospital on behalf of Premier
MUlerand.
WOMEN SEEK HIGH OFFICES
Suffrage Leader Says They May Run
for President In Future.
Washington.—Wnen the 27,000,000
women of voting age In the United
States are granted suffrage they will
demand places In the president’s cab-
inet and In the diplomatic corps. Al-
so they will run for governor.
This was made clear by Miss Alice
Paul, chairman of the National Wom-
an’s party.
* "A woman president,” said Miss
Paul, "why not? There Is absolutely
nothing In the constitution to forbid
such a thing.”
‘‘If the amendment Is ratified plans
will be made for putting a consider-
able representation of women candi-
dates in the field at the noxt state and
national elections.”
GEORGIA S0L0NS ADJOURN
Workmen’s Compensation Law Passed

Atlanta, Ga.—The Georgia legisla-
ture ended Its 1920 session Aug. 12
after an all night session in which
efforts to rush through financial legis-
lation met with failure.
A workmen’s compensation law pro-
viding compulsory insurance to pro-
tect Industrial workers, employes of
Interstate and intra state railroads ex-
cepted, was passed tn the closing
hours of the session.

opinion that an extra session of the

JAPAN REPLY EVADES ANSWER
CLAIMS HER STAND IS JUS-
TIFIED OF OCCUPATION
N# Intimation Is Given As To When
Occupation of Saghalien
Will End.
Washington.—Japan's reply to Seo-
rotary Colby’s note making inquiry as
to by what right that country la oc-
cupying the northeln half of .Saghalien
island, and If she intends to continue
to occupy that part of Siberia east of
Baikal Lake and to continue a buffer
state'in Lower Eastern Siberia, near
Cladivostok, was received at the state
department.
While the reply is couched in the
most courteous language and makes
otfusive protestations of agreement
with the general principle set out In
the American 'note. It is understood
from sources close to the state de-
partment that Japan does no- ecede
from any of the positions sne ».as as-
sumed and to which this government
has taken such bitter exception.
Compelled, She Says.
As to the upper half of Saghalien,
Japan protests that she was compel-
led to occupy it for the reason that
it is actually part of the Siberian
province of Nicolaievesk. It was in
the capital of the province, Japan al-
leges, that a number of her nationals.
Including two officials, were massa-
cred late last spring, and her troops,
she says, are ‘‘now there to avenge
that outrage."
Against temporary occupation of
Nlcolaivesk province for this purpose
the American government made no
protest. But when half of Saghalien
Island was annexed as well, the state
department made vigorous representa-
tions.
Japan’s only excuse for occupying
the island is the pretense that it is
practicalily part of Nicoailvesk. With
this the state department does not
agree.
As to the buffer state in Siberia, it
Is Japan's view, as expressed in the
note, that such a state is absolutely
essential to prevent the spread of the
soclet armies, as well as the soviet
doctrines lo the far east. She alleges
that 6he has done this in the interest
of the allies and of America, as well
as in her own interest.
Adjoins China.
In this connection. It will be re-
called that the buffer state adjoins
the province of Manchuria in China,
which is practically a Japanese pos-
session aed greatly adds to the Mi-
kado’s territory in this particular lo-
cality.
The American note does not make
objections to present occupation of
the buffer state, but it was very so-
licitous In Its inquiry as to when the
occupation will end. On this point,

Cotton Damaged By Rain.
The heavy ratas followed by hot
weather during the last week will en-
danger the cotton crop from the dread
disease, the “boll rot” or anthracnose,
which already has appeared in sec-
tions of the county, according to John
A. Whitehurst, president of the state
board of agriculture. The warm
waves which follow the rains allow
the disease to thrive, causing much
loss within a short time to the cotton
crop. The disease so far has been
confined to certain districts of the
state and it is not considered as ser-
ious. The rains have not materially-
damaged any other crop, and in the
case of corn and other partly matured
crops in this county It has been a
benefit. Whitehurst said. Much of the
other crops which might have been
hurt have already been harvested,
aucta as the wheat crop. The hay and
sorghum crops have not been affected.
