NEWS IS SUPPRESSED Mjjor-Gcncral Ironside Tells Failure of Offc.i-lve Began in Jane in Aorllicrn Ilussia. of AP.niAXGFJ (Correspondence of the Associated rresa.) The British- Russian offensive in North Russia, vrhit-h was intended this summer to connect with Admiral Kolchak's Si- bianch to branch, pecking at cher aitd deep thought on the (election of her hat. and her critical Intenslveness sometimes extends over many days and weeks. Kirn, there are subconscious sug gestions and whispered hinta of the ft-rthcomintr occurrence, followed by surreptitious contrasti of her friends' hats, made with inner criticisms. Gradually her vitue longings crystal ize and she confides her desire to her most intimat- chums. Millinery row is on Clinton street, and extends from Houston to Grand' streets. The mllli.iery shops here are a.; thick as berries on a bush. There are -j many as IS stores on a single Mock, and so close to each other that it seems like a continuous window. It 'jo appears ss if all the ladles' headgear had been called in conven tion. All iho shops are styled either "French"' or "Artistic." The show windows are fitted out to Imitate the Filth avenue shops parquet flooring, hats rocked at a coquettish angle on carved stands. Ivory-tinted back grounds and a blinding radiance of electric lights. They look very Im pressive to the shop girl, and have an air of "chic" that fascinates her. It Is confusing and perplexing to have to make a single selection from this multitude of ha.s. esch as pretty as the other, and the girls hop from store to store, trying on one hat after another, unable to make up their mind.', like sparrows, hopping from berian army and establish Archangel J rie. as a base through which al'led sup- The priestesses who preside In these fetiintr of itvU r saleswomen of a plies might be handled for all anti- vr nrf -mik." tvi Thev bolshevik armies in the field, has met I flatter the looks of the customer un with unexpectedly strong resistance I til the imagines herself beauty in- on the Ivina river at the same time I curnate.

Because of insufficient forces, lack of open support by the allied govern ments and the fact that natural fac tors have aided the bolsheviki. the expedition, according to military opinion in Archangel at this time, may be doomed this summer to a fail ure equally as bad as that which met last summers efforts, unless large forces are thrown In at once by the allied governments and a war against the bolshevik! undertaken in earnest, rolltiral Coaditlnns Feared.

Expedition Is Outnumbered. " Although, compared with last sum mer's pitifully small force. Ui- present British and Russian command is well equipped, it is still far below the strength of the bolshevik! in both numbers and artillery. The British gunboats and monitors, of which a large flotilla was sent for operations on the Dvina and Naga rivers, have for the most part proved ueelss be cause of tho low water. Even the British volunteer forces have been informed that they will be withdrawn from North .Russia before another winter sets in. All Americans and French are now off the Archangel front, and the newly-trained Russian troops, most of whom were obtained by draft, are limited in number, the territory being sparsely settled. They are. horn-ever, well equipped. At present the North Russian gov ernment, which has established, under direction of General Kolchak. a "strong" policy to hold up the disci pline In the army and among the civilian population. Is determined to carry on the war against the bolshe vikl to the finish, and the people ap pear anxious to co-operate. Late in July Major-General Iron aide announced to the British gov ernment that the Russian troops in the Oneso district, about 100 miles west of the Dvina. had mutinied and handed over the Onega front and the' town of Onega to 'the bolshevik!. No British troops were on the Onega front. COLLEGE DRIVE LAUNCHED Indiana High Si-liool Graduates Urged to Continue Work. INDIANAPOLIS A state-wide cam paign to urge high school graduates of 1918 to enter colleges or univer sities haa begun under the direction of the state board of education. O. II. Williams, former state hich school in spector, and Professor W. K. Book, head of the department of psychology at Indiana university. The campaign follows the test last year of more than 6000 graduating high school students as to their men tal status. The purpose of the ex amination was to learn just what stu dents should continue their education. Students who showed marked intelli gence will be assisted in every man ner so they may keep on in their school work. The test, said to be the most re liable ever given, disclosed that of those students who won the classifi cation "very superior intelligence" only 7S per cent plan to attend some college or university. Of this num ber 22 per cent must be given finan cial assistance. Only sS per cent of the boys and 52 per cent of the girls who get intelligent scores above the state median expect to enter college. It has been disclosed that the col leges and universities are failing to draw many students of first-rate ability, while on the otheV hand, they are attracting many students whose scores place them in the lowest groups. Fifty students whose mental test score placed them in the lowest group expect to attend college. HAT BUYING BIG EVENT I'oor "cw York Girls Slake Most f Meager Incomes. NEW TORK.

Government Assail Ober- -talti Title as Purchased, 'ovnt Oscar Bopp von Oberstadt, !u -e fight against the government 'm ;i :ins of his $1,000,000 dowry in lock of the Peter Schoenhofen brew-i- y nude him a prominent figure in the alien enemy cases of. the war period, returned yesteiday to the limelight of the federal courts. Declaring the count had purchased his title for (30,000 from the Vatican without renouncing his allegiance to Germany, and that he later repudi ated his intention of becoming an American citizen by requesting recog nition as a Spanish subject, Francis P. Garvin, federal custodian of alien enemy property In Chicago, has filed a cross bill answering the count's pe tition restraining the authorities from disposing of the brewery stock. The bill, filed just before closing time yesterday in the office of the clerk of the district court, carried a complete history of Count Oberstadt and his antecedents and asks that the custodian be charged with holding the brewery stock until the government disposes of alien enemy caaes throughout the country. , In answer to a complaint filed last May by Attorney Frederick Brown, attorney for the McHenry, 111., "mys tery man." in which the count de clared that, as a resident of Chicago for eight years and a declarant for citizenship, the authorities should be be restrained from selling his brew ery stock or otherwise actively ad ministering his affairs, the cross bill denies both the former statements, "Count Bopp von Oberstadt," it al leges, was born in Stuttgart, Ger many, In 1S66, and came to the United States from Bremen June 20, 1911. He has not lived in Chicago continu ously since that period, but made reg ular trips to Germany. "In August, 1114. while oh one of the trips, he was -held as an alien en emy in England and sent to the Brit ish prison camp at Dorchester. He was released in December upon fur nishing bond and on the promis that he would retur to the United States for the period of the war." November 12. 1918. the bill declares, the count, contrary to his insistence he wished to become a citizen of the United States, wrote a letter to King Alfonso of Spain. "In view of tha black ingratitude of a number of the German people to ward their rulers'," the bill quotes the letter as saying. '"I find it lmpossi ble to remain a German or return to Germany ." The same charges of non-citizenship are made In the bill against the Countess Elizabeth Bopp von Ober stadt. daughter of the late Peter Schoenhofen. who holds the disputed brewery stock jointly with her hus band. At the outbreak of the -war the countess and her children escaped from Munich to Switzerland and. ac cording to the bill, is still a subject or Oermany. At the last hearing Judge Landls issued an injunction prohibiting the custodian and hla directors, Thomas J. Webh. Thomas J. Healy and Rob ert T. Upham, from declaring brewery stock dividends. The property rights, the standing of the Von Oberstadt family, and other details m-ill be Ironed out when the case is taken up for final settlement. YEAR IN STORAGE ENOUGH Father of Federal Pure Food Laws Gives Ills Ideas. WOKTINGTON'. Ond year is long enough for food to be kept In cold storage, according to Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, father of the federal pure food laws. Dr. Wiley appeared before the house agricultural committee, which is holding hearings on cold stor age bills. Introduced in connection with presidential recommendations to check the high cost of living. Veal, several kinds of game and fish and poultry, except spring chick ens, should nevar be put Into cold storage. Dr. Wiley s..:j.

The only reason for doing so, be said, was to increase the price, Dr Wiley asserted that cold storage Invariably 'added to the cost X food, but was necessary if tha consumer desired a balanced diet during the year. "Shad, other varieties of fish, and oysters," said Dr. Wiley, "should not be stored for months because of their rapid deterioration and efforts of many dealers to pass off stored art! cl-;s for the fresh product during the season of these foods. "Beef improves ' y a -short period of storage, but it should not be kept longer than four or five months. Eggs, of course, must be stored to provide a supply during tha season of scarcity, ut their pjalatablllty de creases with the storage. They should never be kept longer than ten months, and all of tha supply of the previous year should be on the market by March of tha following year, the sea son when eggs again become plen tiful- 'Butter should not be kept longer than ten months, and likewise all stored should be on the market by June of the year In which It is stored. Flour is better as soon as it is milled. Sweet corn loses half of its sugar within :S hours after it is pulled from the stalk, the sugar in that time hav ing been turned into starch. Meats in general should not be kept longer than four or fivw months." Dr. Wiley strongly advocated the more extensive use of powdered milk in place of fresh milk. 'One pound of powder makes a gal lon of milk. Think of the saving this means in transportation cost and re frigeration. A woman tdaveling with a baby can carry a small quantity and have an ample supply of food for the child. IX xha milk is ted to children a little tomato or orange juice should be given later." Dr. Wiley also claimed the bread eating habit of the country was not beneficial. "Every housewife," Dr. WIly told the committee, "should store eggs in her home in seasons of plenty for the period of scarcity."- He recommended the use of water glass. "There is a slight deterioration In keeping eggs in water glass, but it is not dangerous," he said. "And it would prove a great saving to the country if. practiced generally, ine eggs can be kept In good condition as in cold storage, and the purplish tint that appears on some of them is not injurious. A good test for cold stor age eggs is to put them in a salt solu tion of 10 per cent. If they float it Is a good indication they ha.e been in storage." An Antidote for Bolshevism.' New Tork Commercial. Teachers in the high schools are at rork on monographs to be used in connection with the teaching of civics next fall. The new syllabus for this subject has been entitled "The Gov ernment of the City of New York, With State and Federal Relation ships." As there are no textbooks, the monographs are to take their place. Water supply, health, food, clothing, regulation of buildings, pro tection, of life arid property, . recrea tion, communication and transporta tion, city planning, civic beauty and similar topics are to be studied. In fact, everything relating to civic life will be taken up. The assumption is tht the state is training young citi zens in the responsibilities and duties jf cltizenshp. The menace' of bolshevsm In -this country is not as great as many would have ua believe. Such outbreaks as we have had 'have not come from American citizens, but are of foreign production. They are propagated in countries where the rights of citizen ship were suppressed, where laws were oppressive and where the op pressed had no recourse; where edu cation was riscouraged and Ignor ance prevailed. The bolshevlki war on "Intellectuals." Yet ever since the world began intelligence has tri umphed over ignorance. In six or seven years these high school children will be voters of both sexes. They will understand that in this country wrongs are righted not b bullets but by ballots. Yet even before that they will have carried into their homes the influence of what they have, learned regarding American institutions and methods. The kaiser counted upon the immense German-American population to keep this country out of the war. He for got about the second generation, edu cated in American schools and brought up under a free government. Many of them took up arms, it is true, but on the opposite side of the fighting line.
