SPEEDY OVERTHROW OF SOVIET FORECAST London. Complete overthrow of the Russian soviet government as a result of Its' present perilous military and economic situation, was forecast la diplomatic circles here. Under pressure from tbe Poles from the west and General Wrange! on tbe south, tbe Uolshevlkl armies were re ported to be crumbling and in danger of utter collapse. The morale of the troops, according to dispatches from llelaingfors, has been shattered by repeated defeats and mass meetings are being held on lbs western front at which demands are made for immediate peace. The Poles since August IS have re gained about half the ground they yielded before tbe Russian advance, which began early In July and which was only after soviet troops had hem med Warsaw In on three sides. BIG NAVY ADVOCATED Chairman of Houae Foreign Relations Committee for Preparedness. San Francisco. Members of the American congressional party which has been touring the Orient for the last few months, arrived in San Fran cisco aboard the United States army transport Mndawanka. "America must be prepared," was the statement of Congressman Porter of Pennsylvania, who is chalrmun ot the house foreign relations committee. "We must build first line battleships; we must recruit our navy to full strength. Present conditions make It Imperative that we have a navy second to none," Relief. Money Squandered Constantinople. At the hearing of Six Americans arrested on a charge of having defrauded the Near East relief, Lieutenant-Colonel Coombs, director of the organisation, admitted that many expensive dinners to high allied officers had been given with money belonging to the Near East relief. He testified the arrangements were made by Davis, one of the de fendants, and that champagnes and wines figured In the menus. Poles Capture 42,000 Reds. Warsaw.

Navy Builds Super-Seaplane. New York. Super-seaplanes, with a cruising radius sufficient to enable them to cross the Paciflo ocean, now are under construction and probably will be available for use by tbe navy department early next spring. Washington. Examination of the final census figures of tbe country, which place the total population ot the continental United Biaus at CKa.IOI, Indicates that the west and the south proportionately will gain mors in a political way than the east or middle west through Increased mem bership In tbe bouse of representatives, mors votes In the electoral college and In larger delegations to tbe national political conventions. As a result of the Increase of 13.710, 142 In population during tbe past ten years, 60 new seats could be sdded to the bouse. Should tbe present member ship of 436 be left unchanged by in creasing the basis of apportionment there will bave to be a transfer of 13 seats, now held by 12 states, to nine other states. For tbe last half century the prece dent has been to Increase the size of Che bouse so as to prevent loss of exist ing representation by any state. If this precedent Is followed this year, five additional reprentalive seats must be given to California, four each to New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan ;three to Illinois and Texas; two to Maasacliusetts, New Jersey and North Carolina, and one each to Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Car olina Tennessee, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Virginia, Arkan sas and Minnesota. Congressional leaders are 1 strongly opposed to any larger Increase in the house, as they regard the present membership of 435 as too unwieldy. The present apportionment basis Is 211,877 Inhabitants, or Ita major frac tion, to the congressional district. By holding the bouse membership to 435, gains would be distributed with three to California, two to Michigan and Ohio, and one each to Connecticut, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oklaho ma, Texas and Washington. ' To offset these gains, Missouri would be forced to lose two representatives, while In diana. Iowa, Kansss, Kentucky,, Louis iana, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, Rhode Island, Vermont and Virginia would lose one each. AH other states would retain their present numerical delegation In congress. APPARENT ERROR IN RATE RAISE CHARGED Topeka, Kan. An assertion that the Interstate commerce commission made an apparent error of $192,853,696 In the calculation upon which It fixed the freight rate increase on western roads to give the roads a 6 per cent return was made In an opinion granting a modified 30 per cent increase In Kansas intrastate rates by the Kansas court of Industrial relations, handed down here. "The error is of such magnitude as to challenge attention," the opinion Muted, "and brings up for consideration whether fhe basis used In the analysis Is correct. It may be said here that the Identical analysts applied to other groups show a result within a trac tion of 1 per cent of the rate Increase ordered by the Interstate commerce commission."
