Such a step, it is held, would work against the ten dencies to unrest caused by tbt countless political and boundary dis putes among the numerous rages, and help prevent any trend towards . Bolshevism that disorderly condi tions might act to promote. It Is urged by Jewish restdents arriving here from Przemysl and.Lemberg that the presence of American sol diers would bo sufficient protection against such antiemetic outbreaks as have occurred recently at these places. Hitlers Abandon Instates The word Bolshevism is loosely used here, but the only authentic example of outbreaks taking on this complexion appears to be furnished among the Slovak population oP northwestern Hungary, where the; former ruling classes, the Magyar 1 * country gentlemen, have virtually j abandoned their estates. It is re- 1 ported that efforts by the Czechs j to take possession of this territory j was followed by an uprising of the peasants and also by outbreaks j against the jews. Tho most recent example of the lit- j erulness with which the peoples of tho old dual monarchy have inter preted President Wilson's conception of self-determination among every body of people of the same tongue and race is to be found among the inhabitants In the region of Qott- t] echce, übout thirty miles northeast . of Flumo, a body of about 20,000 | German-speaking people living in j v tho heart of Jugoslavia. y Fear tlic Jugo-Slnvs x Representatives of the Got t sell op j group explained that they wished the | protection of America against the j Jugo-Slavs bo that they might de- j clare a republic. They said they i were friendly to the Jugo-Slnvs but j their own political freedom and j note they fo't they had a right to j • their town political freedom and I wished to exist in the interior of Jugoslavia just as San Marino did in Italy. These people claim that Jugo-Slnv soldiers arrested the mayor of Gott- Bchce and are persecuting the politi • cnl leaders of the region They de clare their group had its origin in Bohemia, whence it emigrated six hundred years ago and occupied Gottschce, hut that it always retained the use of the German language, nnd that now, if their people arc to bo forced to abandon It, if they re main, they prefer to abandon their homes, They claim there are 20,000 of their people among the population of New York, Cleveland and Sun Francisco,' llupKlMirg Hnpturc Permanent i>r, Paul Bumnsoa, author of a work on the race struggle of the Hapshurg empire, expresses the opin ion that the peoples of that empire never wilt be brought together again. "It is possible," he said, "that the peace conference will establish a free trade system among the new repub lics which will eliminate vexatious and cumbersome tariff bonds. But if this Is not done, then all will be forced into hopeless competition with each other, creating a situation such as existed in America before the states united. For the present, ' their fate Is like that of Pandora on opening the box." Great War Demonstration Is Held at Santiago, Chile Santiago, Chile, Dec. 2.—A great ! patriotic demonstration, directed against Peru, was held here on Sat urday nnd continued until midnight. It was the largest ever seen in Santiago. Resolutions to be sent to the na tional government, demanding the j incorporations into Chile of Taena ! and Arica and an immediate in- I crease in the army and navy, were everywhere greeted with cheers. A feature of the demonstration was the presence of the veterans of '79 who captured the provinces from Peru. Hundreds of.Argentine flags were carried in the procession.

Treves Made Headquarters Brigadier General Preston Brown, the military governor for occupied territory, has established his head quarters at Treves, which also has been made general headquarters. General Pershing will spend part of his time at Treves. Civil affairs will be directed by Major General Harry Smith. The troops marched into the head quarters town with bands playing, but even the music and presence of dozens of high ranking American officers failed to jar the population from its attitude of calm silence. Defeated Foe Wateli Americans A curious feature of the situa tion was tho presence along the lino of march of large numbers of dis charged German soldiers, both offi cers and men, still in full uniform. Along the roads and in Treves these men moved in and out of tho groups of men in khaki or stood on the sidewalks watching" the marching columns. At several places in the city and in the country districts Ger mans armed with rifles, were seen ucting as civilian guards. They had been placed there bv the German authorities to maintain orrl A number of released Allied sol diers appeared within the American lino as It advanced. Some of them had been sfet free by the retreating Germans while others had been per mitted "to escape." Huns Not to Be Disturbed The Allied commissions which have been ir communication with the Germans have notified tho local authorities In Treves un.d other places that where the civilian auth orities are not troublesome and where they co-operate with the forces of occupation, they will be permitted to remain at their posts unci will not be disturbed except in sofar as it is inecessary for the car rying out of military measures.

She is the | daughter of Mr, and Mrs. William L. Frick, 12 Soutli Fifteenth street. Although Miss Frick can under stand her teachers by reading their lips with her hands, and eatt speak and understand her friends at the I school by the sign language per- j formed on her own paint so she can j feel it. it is still necessary for a j teacher t.o help her understand j strangers. She will soon be able to read anyone's lips by feeling them I with her sensitive linger tips. When asked if she was going to j have a birthday party, Miss Frick i laughed and said, "No, she was too j old for that." Though she may con- j sider herself too old for parties, site j is by no means a back number, and | when she was asked what she thought f of the ending of tho war, her face i lighted and her words tumbled over j each other as she told how she put ! her hand out of the window and felt the whistles blowing on peace day. She jumped tip and down witli joy and waved a handkerchief out of the w|ndow, just as any other girl might do. She seemed Just as interested as I anyone in the fact that the vibrations . made by the noise of tile celcDration | could be felt and she thought it was | very wonderful. Miss Frick spent yesterday aftt r noon reading "Pilgrim's Progress" with her lingers, and to-day she will I have her lessons and do her usual ( j daily tasks. She can use a type- | writer and a sewing machine, and her i education in general knowledge is ! constantly progressing. Miss Mabel 1 Whitman is her teacher. Another blind and deaf girl, Grace Pearl, is her constant companion.
