ARMY MEETS SUCCESS
Battered Ilnes Arc Being Tight
ened and Military situation
Is Reported Improved.
SPA. Belgium. July 10. (Havas.)
Marshal Koch had a conference this
niorninj? with the head of the Polish
delegation at which dispositions were
made under which the allies mipht
help Poland in their fight against the
bolsheviki.
Better news from the Polish bol
shevik front was received by Polish
circles here today, the messages seem
ing to indicate that the Poles were
sncceeding in stabilizing their lines.
The Polish question was the sub
ject of a conversation yesterday be
tween Premier L.loyd-Oeorge of Great
Britain and Premier Milierand of
France, the two prime ministers con
sidering what, if anything, could be
done to help the Poies In their pres
ent military difficulty.
Premier Lloyd-George is understood
to have said that In view of the agree
ment Just concluded between Great
Britain and the Russian soviet gov
ernment, he did not feel disposed to
do anything more than give dtploma
tice support to the roles. Premier
Milierand Is reported as having re
plied that, this elng the case. France
could not go further.
The note of -the Polish government
respecting peace with the Moscow
government was received today by
the Polish delegation here to be com
municated to the allied premiers. It
!as stated by those connected with
'the delegation, however, that the not
which was in code, had been so muti
lated in transmission by telegraph
that the delegation could not deter
mine what it really contained.
REPORTED RETREAT DOl'BTED
Withdrawal of Forces Said to Be
On l'rom Thrco roints.
PARIS, July 10. rolish forces are
withdrawing from Brest-Lit ovsk, VII
na and Pinok. as a result of the great
Russian bolshevik offensive, accord
ing to a telegram received by the
newspaper IVlnf ormation this morn-
The Paris report of a withdrawal
movement by the roles from Brest
I,itv!k. Vilna and Pin.sk is not con
firmed from any other source. Pinsk
is not far back of the last reported
Polish bolsheviki fighting line but
the other places named are far re
moved! from It.
Advices received today declared the
Poles were holding tip the bolshevik
advance. This would seem to throw
additional doubt upon the correctness
of the Paris advices.
MOVING Or CAPITAL. DENIED
Foli'li -Minister Says Situation Is

WASHINGTON. July 10. The Pol
ish povernment is not leaving War
saw, declared Prince Castmir L,udo
mirski. the Polish minister, in a state
ment today denying a report cabled
from Germany yesterday that It was
the intention of Poland to move her
teat of government from Warsaw.
The statement declared ' t ha t news
was received by the legation today
from Poland to the effect that the
Polish army was holding back, the
bolshevik forces, that the entire na
tion, as well as the army, was full of
patriotic enthusiasm and that all the
parties are united in an unbroken
front. ;

WELFARE WORKERS OUT
f Continued From First Pajre.
1919 and it devolved upon me to ap
point three members I made every
effort to select a high class personn
and individually I think I succeeded
n so doing. But various elements
in this commission do not seem to
ix and almost from the first there
was continuous complaint in regard
to the workings of the commission
as a whole.
t'omminHion Important One.
"The great authority which the law
gives this commission over all child
caring agencies of the state makes
it one of the most important bodies
of stat government, and it is quite
essential that as such it work along
harmonious, as well as efficient lines,
so that the various institutions and
child-caring agencies concerned are
not kept in continual turmoil. As
I stated in my letter to each of the
retiring commissioners, I hold the
highest regard for each, individually.
and it is with the keenest regret
that I feel that this commission, a.3
it was constituted, cannot function
In a manner which is for the best in
terest of the state. In the selection
of the new personnel I believe that
this can be done.
"It is my understanding that the
new members of the commission will
sever any connections which they may
hold with any of the child-caring
agencies coming under the control of
the commission, and that they will
devote all of their energies along
child welfare lines to the work of
the commission itself. All of the new
appointees have "had large experience
in child welfare matters and have
been actively interested in such work
for many years.
nominees. Senator LaFollette and
Frank P. Walsh of Kansas City, ex
chairman of the United States Indus

In the shipyard strike there during
the spring of 1919 and later a labor
candidate for mayor of that city, en
tered the convention as a delegate. (
He was elected chairman of the
Washington state delegation and took
an active part in the proceedings.
Developments of the convention are
being watched with interest by a
number of labor, liberal and radical
leaders who are not directly partici
pating. Robert LaFollette Jr. at

W. G. Calderwood, formerly an of
ficial of the national prohibition party
and several times a candidate for
federal office on that ticket, sat in
the Minnesota delegation.
George L. Record of New Jersey
was elected chairman of the platform
committee and H. K. Wilkie of Mary
land chairman of the committee on
political procedure. Both bodies held
executive sessions lasting well Into
the night but arranged to carry on
their work with the assistance of out
siders tomorrow.
The procedure committee devoted
Its efforts to drafting a tentative plan
under which the various groups may
lend their support to a single presi
dential candidate while carrying qn
Independent work In the interest of
their particular sets of ideas, or local
requirements.
"Group autonomy" was the obj::
ttve to be worked for, participants
stated.
After two hours of argument over
rules and permanent officers, the con
vention adjourned at 3 P. M. for lunch
to meet again at E P. M.
While the convention got under way
the friends.of Irish freedom arrived,
set up a booth on the sidewalk and
unfurled banners urging the third
party to "recognize Irish freedom."
Speakers said that the convention
must guard against charges being
spread that all work done here was
by "packed" committees. Debate grew
heated at times while the western
delegates continued to demand rep
resentation on the . procedure com
mittee. A motion by Mrs. Frank Page of
Massachusetts to name a committee
member from each state was defeated
overwhelmingly.
Permanent officers of the conven
tion were installed without oratory
when the convention assembled for
its second session.
Support of Labor Sought.
C. J. France of Seattle Introduced a
formal resolution of appeal to the
labor party convention which opens
Sunday, asking its delegates to unite
as a body with the committee of 4S
gathering. It was read amidst cheers
and adopted by a rising vote. .
"We realize that there is no mate
rial difference, either in purpose or
ideal, between us," it said in part.
"We feel deeply the obligation rest
ing upon us both to compromise any
alight differences which might keep
us from unifying into one great, suc
cessful political movement.
"Shall wo give our common enemy
the unutterable Joy which would fol
low our failure to unite in a solid
phalanx?
Conference Is Suga-ested.
"With these thoughts which we
know arc your thoughts, we suggest
that your convention provide lor a
sub t committee selected from your
platform committee to confer with
the sub-committee selected from our
platform committee: that these two
committees meet with a firm deter
mination to attain a platform of
fundamentals upon which . we can
bolh unite, a method for concerts
political action and common candidates.
"We further suggest that all
through the proceedings of our two
conventions, such Joint conference
committees be appointed from time
to time, so that we may work In
mutual harmony to the end that our
two conventions may come together
in one great body and present such
challenge to the autocracy of
America that this movement will go
down In history."
Differences between the committee
of 4S and the labor party remained
acute on the railroad problem, leaders
Of both groups said. Both groups
tand for government ownership but
differ as to the amount of "demo
cratlc management," which would at
