Mo Road Contracts Before January 1 The state of Pennsylvania will un- [ lertake no new road contracts before < the first of the year, according to State Highway Commissioner J.; Denny O'Neil. The national govern ment has raised the restriction on j rarious construction work. Mr. O'Neil says: "Numerous tele- | Si ams and letters have been received i Juring the past few days, requesting I that contracts be awarded for the im provement of roads, for which per- \ mits had been withheld by the Na tional Highways Council, and that I jertain proposed roads that were held jp by the Washington authorities, be advertised for immediate construe- I lion." After careful study, the Commis-1 sioner states that in his opinion—ow ing to the lateness of the season and the fact that it is Impossible to do road work during the winter months' —he does not feel justified in making) any awards or in advertising for pro posals at this time, for it is thought j that by spring much better conditions 1 ill obtain and prices will be much j bore favorable. "The State Highway Department | las worked out a definite system of leads for the various counties of the ! . itate," Mr. O'Neil says, "which even tually will work into a state system, ind the roads that were advertised ind those under consideration are al! I part of this proposed system and Jhese, no doubt, will he the first to re reive the consideration of the State Highway Department when work is resumed." , Zeppelin Passenger ' by E.

I political or military, has been made i by the United States, it is realized . j here that the holding of the Ukraine 5 ; by forces friendly to the associated ' governments and decidely hostile to I the Bolshevik! opens a path directly . j into the heart of Russia either for - 1 the dispatch of troops or of supplies 1 | for the relief of the demoralized ctv , Ulan population. British May Send Troops J ! Recent reports from London have j been taken by some observers here . j to indicate that Great Britain may ' J propose the sending of additional troops into Russia to place the coun | try on a stable footing and eliminate ' the Bolshevihi. It was said yester ' | day, however, that no definite word as to this has been received here, I The Bolshevik fighting strength is j considered as now practically con centrated against the Allied and 'j Russian troops operating south from j Archangel. The unusual lateness of the winter In that region- has aided the Bolshevists as in the ice-free t streams they have been able to tfti l lize armed river boats against the Allied and United States .forces. Though compelled to operate almost altogether on land, the troops of the associated government have been ! able to withstand all attacks. CosMnckn Hold Ukraine i With the Cossacks holding the Uk ! raine; with the military and political I forces of the Omsk government work ! ing west, and with the American j and Allied forces pushing south, some officials consider that the position of. the disturbers of Russian peace | has become serious. However, no im mediate collapse of the Bolshevik ; regime is believed imminent.
