MOSCOW, July 12. Few and per
haps unimportant an they are, just
enough counter-revolutionary1 acts
and plots have been revealed in So

to indicate that, on the one hand, all
opposition to the Bolshevik regime,
has not died down, and on tho otluer.

be justified, from Ho standpoint, in

Moscow and other central Kusstun cit

of the . official newspapers shows that

and that an undercurrent of opposi

beneath the surface in many provinces.

SPOKANL0, July 12. The fire and
accident committee of tho Spokane
Chamber of Commerce is seeking thc
cooperation of summer resort owners
In preventing accidents and drown
ings and of its own accord has taken
steps toward securing legislation for
I he same end- The latest move of the
committoe was fpr'laws'to compel re
sort owners to employ trained life
guards at tho bathing beaches.
Kvan Morgan,, of Loon lake, form
er president of the Inland Empire,
Uesort Owner's association, is attemp
ting to enlist support for the safety
work. Be suggests tho establishment
of an investigation committee to visit
the resorts and make public Its report
of 'safety conditions.
"There are hundreds of boats in use
at the resorls which arc, in my opin
Ion, unsafe." Mr. Morgan -says. "1
believe that rowboats should be in
wpected us well as motor boats. . Any
ther danger Is caused by the over
loading of rowbouts. The fool who
rocks the bout also Is one of the
greatest menaces of today."
