AYahington Believes Strength

gime Soon Is Not Expected.
"WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. Overthrow
of the Bolshevik regime in the Uk
raine and the capture of Kiev by Cos
sack troops friendly to the all-Russian
government, as reported today from
Copenhagen, opens the way. In the
opinion of officials here, for Important
developments in Russia.
While no change in policy, either po
litical or military, has been made by
the United States, it is realized here
that the holding of the Ukraine by
forces friendly to the associated gov
ernments and decidedly hostile to the
Bolshevlki opens a path directly into
the heart of Russia either for the dis
patch of troops or of supplies for the
relief of the demoralized civilian pop
ulation. Red Leaders May Flee.
Recent reports from London have
been taken by some observers here to
indicate that Great Britain may pro
pose the sending of additional troops
into Russia to place the country on a
.table footing and eliminate the Bol
sheviki. It is said today, however, that
no definite word as to this has bee
received here.
Possibilities that the Bolshevik lead
ers may flee Russia after accumulattn
large amounts of loot have been touched
upon in recent dispatches but have bee
discounted here, largely because no
haven for them appears available.
Switzerland has ejected their represen
tatives forcibly. Holland has declared
they are not wanted there, and even
Germany now is not expected to toler
ate them within its borders.
Allies Repel Attacks.
The Bolshevik fighting strength vir
tually is concentrated against the al
lied and Russian troops operating south
from Archangel. The unusual lateness
of the Winter in that region has aided
the Bolshevists, as in the- ice-free
streams they have been able to utilize
armed river boats against the allied
and United States forces, who have
been compelled to operate almost alto
gether on land. Tet they have been
able to withstand all attacks. Despite
the resistance they are offering in the
, north, it Is believed in some quarters
here that the strength of the Bolshevlki
is waning. With the Cossacks holding
the Ukraine, with the military and po
litical forces of the Omsk government
working west, and with the American
and allied forces pushing south, some
officials consider that the position of
the disturbers of Russian peace has be
come serious. However, no Immediate
collapse of the Bolshevik regime is be
lieved imminent.
has been stopped and the residents
are unable to leave their homes. The
rattle of machine guns has been con
tinuous and there was fierce fighting
for the possession of the town hall, the
postoffice, the Diet building and the
Governor's palace, parts or the Duua
ings being destroyed. The Ukrainlani
outnumber the Poles, and it was de
clared In Vienna on Monday that Lem
berg was entirely in the hands of the
Ukrainians.
The Ukrainians also have captured
Czernowits. the capital of ,Bukowina
and Boleslav. while fighting is in prog
ress at Przemysl, Kolomea and Stanis-
lau. .
The correspondent says the fighting
in Galicla seems to be a case for allied
intervention.
- COPENHAGEN. Nov. 20. The Ukrain
ian lovernment has been overturned
and Kiev has been captured by troops
from Astrakhan, according to Kiev dls
patches to Swedish newspapers. The
Ukrainian National Assembly has fled
and a provisional government has been
established by the captors or trie city,
who apparently are commanded by
General Denlkine, leader of the anti-
Bolshevist forces.
CONGRESS TO QUIT TODAY
PLANS FOR BRIEF VACATION
PRACTICALLY COMPLETED.
ALLIES WILL KEEP HANDS OFF
Effort Will Be Made Only to Extend
Economic Aid to Slavs.
WASHINGTON. Nor. 20. (Special.)
The allied powers and the United
States will not send - military
forces to Russia to overthrow the
Bolshevlki. This statement was made
here today on high authority. The
associated governments themselves do
not desire to participate in civil war in
Russia.
The Russians themselves, including
the -anti-Bolshevik and pro-ally elet
merits, are opposed to foreign military
intervention. Economic intervention
however, is urgently desired by Rus
sians, and it is understood that a plan
has been formulated, which will be
submitted to the United States and the
entente nations, having the Indorse
ment of the provisional ail-Russian
government at Omsk and the Russian
diplomatic representatives abroad.
This plan calls for allied assistance
in the distribution of foodstuffs al
ready available in certain parts of Rus
sia, rather than for any political or
military assistance.
In order to guarantee equitable and
efficient distribution, however. It is
proposed that an inter-allied com
mission with sufficent military forces
at its disposal to insure the execution
of its orders shall be sent to Russia.
FIGHTING IS FIERCE IJT G ALICIA
Numerous Towns Are Seized by
Ukrainians From Poles.
LONDON. Nor. 20. Since the capture
of Lemberg. the capital of Galicla. by
the Ukrainians. November 1. fighting
has continued between the Ukrainians
and the Poles without cessation, ac
cording to Austrian newspapers quoted
in a Vienna dispatch dated Monday to
the Dally Mail.
Lemberg was taken by surprise. Pol
ish legions attempted to recapture the
rity. Both sides are using artillery
and German officers are helping the
Ukrainians.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless
If you want plenty of thick, beauti
ful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means
get rid of dandruff, for it will starve
your hair and ruin it if you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff Is to dis
solve it. then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring: use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
tbe finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every sin
gle sign and trace of It.
You will find. too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. It is Inexpensive and
four ounces is all you will need, no
matter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never falls. Adv.

Few Formal Matters Yet to Be Dis
posed Of; Last Session or Pres
ent Body Opens Dec. 2.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. Senate and
House leaders today completed arrange
ments for the ending tomorrow of the
present session of Congress, so mem
bers may have a brief vacation before
the third and last session opens, De
cember 2.
A few obstacles to the programme de
veloped today, but leaders believe they
will serve only to postpone adjourn
ment for a few hours. Senators Watson,
of Indiana, and Sherman of Illinois, Re
publicans, were expected to address
the Senate in criticism of President
Wilson's action in taking control of
cables after the signing of the armis
tice, while Senator Reed, of Missouri,
Democrat, has prepared a speech on
the plans for a league of nations.
Among the formal matters for dis
position before adjournment tomorrow
are transmission to the President, after
signature by Vice-President Marshall
and Speaker Clark, of the National war
time prohibition bill, and confirmation
by the Senate of the nomination of
Former Solicitor-General Davis to be
Ambassador to Great Britain.
During the recess the finance com
mittee hopes to complete revision of
the war revenue bill to have it ready
for the Senate when the new session
begins. The committee today again
suspended formal sittings, to enable
treasury experts to work on proposed
amendments.

ALLIED SOLDIERS MATES
Fred Lockley, Back From France,
Speaks at Ad Club Luncheon.
Fred Lockley, returned T. M. C. A.
worker from France, and newspaper
man, was the speaker at the luncheon
of the Portland Ad Club yesterday at
the Hotel Benson. Marshall N. Dana
introduced the speaker. Lady Kingston
was an honor guest at the luncheon
and a programme of patriotic songs
preceded the address.
Mr. Lockley told of the heroism or
the men in service, and of the disap
pearance of lines of distinction and na
tionality among the soldiers of the
allied armies. "A lot of the wonderful
Irish, and a lot of the wonderful Scotch
and a lot of the wonderful Canadian
soldiers I met overseas came from the
states of our own great west," he said,
and over there they were all just
mates." i

give preference to tnoae who were
friends." Later he told the committee
that he would be willing to assume that
11 the documents relating to the firms
which Major Humes put into the record
were taken from tne rues or tne asso
ciation.
' Beano of Listing Given.
Major Humes told the committee the
firms were listed by the Brewers As
sociation because of their attitude
against the use of liquor by their em
ployes or because of activity of mem
bers of the firms, and in some in
stances of employees against the liquor
business.
The Inquiry into political activity be
gan when John Gardiner was called to
the stand. The witness said he might
have seen lists of candidates at dif
ferent times from 1911 to 1914 which
the brewers' association indorsed in
some states, including Iowa, Texas,
Pennsylvania. Indiana and one candi
date for Congress from Illinois, but
he could not recall the details. He ad
mitted the association was active in
wet and dry fights in several states
in those years and said that in that
time it spent between $400,000 and
$500,000 doing all "it legitimately could
to arouse public sentiment in our
favor." Gardiner declared the brewers
made no contributions to political cam
paign committees and at first denied
it had endorsed any set of candidates.
Statement la Read.
It was while Secretary Fox was on
the stand that Major Humes read the
statement said to have been prepared
by the former president of the Ger
man-American Alliance. Copies of the
statement which was a declaration of
the alliance's position o . the European
war before the United States became a
belligerent were sent to K. W. Feigen-
pan. of Newark. N. J., who aided in
financing the purchase of the Wash
ington Times and the Montgomery
(Ala.) Advertiser and who then was
chairman of the publications com
mittee of the Brewers' Association.
Hexamer's statement condemned as
sabotage the destruction of American
factories engaged in producing war
materials for the allies and also con
demned the sinking of the ships carry
ing munitions. Those responsible for
such should be punished, Hexamer said.
but he added that he did not believe
they were committed at the instance
of Germany or Austria.
"This indicates that some literary-
inclined persons of the office of the
United States Brewers' Association was
writing German propaganda, does it
not?" asked Major Humes.
I don't recall anything about it."
Mr. Fox replied.
"Mr. Felgenspan was the chairman
of the publications committee at the
time this article was written, and it
was sent to him. was it not?"
Yes," Fox replied, and he added:
That bears an indication that someone
prepared it in the office of our associ
ation."
'German propaganda," he continued.
"was. by common consent, discussed
very little with us. I do not know
whether that was because I am an Eng
lishman or not."
METZ, Nov. 20. Marshal Petain, com
mander-in-chief of the French armies,
made his triumphal entry into Mets
yesterday with a staff of allied officers
at the head of the famous Iron Division,
the 39th Division of the 20th Corps.
From all the statues of French heroes
still-standing In Mets flags were fly
ing. but most things German had dis
appeared overnight, including the
statues of German rulers, which had
been hauled down by the citizens.
The statues of William I and Freder
ick III had been toppled over, but that
of former Emperor William II stood
grotesquely on the facade of the ca
thedral. The hands had been chained
during the night and into them had
been put a banner bearing the inscrlp
tion, "Sic Transit Gloria Mundi."
Troops Are Reviewed.
Following Uie troops was a long pro
'cession of Lorraine societies and other
groups, including a great number of
girls In the national costume of Lor
raine. This procession met the Marshal
at the Port de France and conducted
him in triumph to the Esplanade, where
surrounded by a remarkable group of
generals and other high officers, he re
viewed the troops.
The day was one of notable enthusi
asm, which dusk failed to diminish.
Bands with torches appeared as soon as
the light began to fade and jubilant
processions continued gaily to circulate
through the town . until a late hour.
Meanwhile from the French line all
around the fortress there was a bril
liant display of fireworks which
brightly lighted the sky, signal fuses
and 8larshells serving as skyrockets.
Bells Ring 'Welcome.
A little later the cannon of the forts
around about the city began firing a
saiuie or juu rounds. The famous ca
thedral bey, the motto on which reads:
"I Announce Justice," gave the signal
for the other bells in the city to peal
forth a welcome to "our liberators," as
the people of Metz call the French and
the allied armies.
When Marshal Petain appeared,
mounted on a fine white charger and
followed by the entire general staff,
with American and British officers
attached, a shout went up that drowned
the whirr of airplanes flying overhead,
and the crowd surged forward, break
ing the line of guards in places to get
a glimpse of the victorious commander
of the French armies.
Tanks Are la Parade.
Still mounted, Marshal Petain took
up his position in front of the statue
of Marshal Ney to review the troops
comprising the 39th Division of In
fantry, with its artillery, under Gen
eral Pougin; a detachment of the First
Corps of ' ivalry, under General Fe
raud; other mounted troops uner Gen
eral De Boissieu: two escorting squad
rons from the First Moroccan Division
and a detachment of tanks.
