gineer who recently was in "Mos
cow, will be closely questioned by
the intelligence department of
Scotland Yard on his arrival in
London if the present police plans
are carried out.
The interrogation will not
necessarily be made with the view
of taking action against Mr. Van
derlip's presence in England, it
was said, but with the intention
of ascertaining exactly what his
activities had. been in Russia.
Such interrogation, it' was said,
would be in conformity with the
recently adopted attitudue of the
British government of discourag
ing travel between Russia and
England.

The Story of Coke Installment No. 10
The Union County Ad club,
through Senator Colon R. Eber-
hard . of La Grande as its repre
sentative, has filed with the pub
lic service commission a protest
against freight rate Increases
granted by the interstate com
merce commission as they affect
lumber shipments from the West
into the Middle West and the
East.
The white pine industry par
ticularly is affected, the com
plaint avers, mills are shutting
down, business becoming stag
nant and thousand of men being
thrown into idleness. Unless the
ratesLare readjusted and a re
duction granted on pine lumber
and other forest products the pro
test opines that these products in
the Northwest will be entirely
displaced by the yellow pine from
the southern states and a further
financial depression thrown upon
the country. Tne service com
mission is urged to take action
for relief in this state.

Bolshevism Is Held
WASHINGTON. Nov, 18. The
collapse of the W ran gel anti-bolshevik-movement
in south Russia
is viewed by government officials
as having prompted the declara
tion by Lloyd George In parlia
ment today that the British cabi
net had decided to resume ne
gotiations for resumption of trade
relations with Russia. At the
same time, It was said. Great
Britain is more interested in se
curing exemption from bblshevik
propaganda in Asia Minor, Persia
and India than in establishing
actual commercial dealings with
Russia.
The United States will not fol
low the lead of Great Britain or
France, it was said. If those coun

present Russian government, even
If only to the extent of permitting
trading. State department offi
cials said no change in the atti
tnde of the United States towards
Russia would result from the
British action. The American
government, it was explained, be

to the stability of the world and
that the Russian people j them
