London.—As one surveys the map

vlous that the various sectors In Eu
rope which present entirely chaotic
■conditions are Increasing in numbers
instead of decreasing. Just at present
Poland looms large. Vllna, Lemburg
and Warsaw rivet attention one day
and Reval and Riga the next
The fact Is, the bolshevlsts, havini
decided to enlarge their sphere ol
control, have declared war upon th«
world at large. This doubtful situ a
tlon arise* from the fact that bol
shevlsm Is a state of mind rather than
a state of territory also from the fur
ther fact that there are hundreds ol
thousands of men In Russia who musl
either Join the bolshevlst forces or
starve or freete.
The main question now Is whether
bolshevlst aggression wilt stop at th«
old German eastern frontier. Hon
far bolshevlst thought already hai
penetrated eastern Germany It Is im
possible to say. Where and when will
the allies and America have to meet
the bolshevlst advanced forces? Po
land is one of President Wilson's 14
points. What shall the allies aad
America do about it
It can be readily perceived thai
such a situation has a direct and ar

others.

former President sat up moat of Sun
day and retired at 11 p. m. Aboat
four a. m., Mrs. Roosevelt, who waa
the only other member of the family'
at Oyster Bay, went to her husband's
room and found that he had died dur
ing the night.
Mrs. Roosevelt telephoned to Cole

Rooaevelt home Immediately. Tele

wife left New York Sunday night for
Boston, where the captains' wife's fa
ther Is 111. Mrs. Elhel Derby and her
two children are In Aiken, S. C.
Telegrams of condolence and sym
pathy began to pour In from all parts
of the country ae soon as the news of
Colonel Roosevelt's death became
hnown.
The former President came to his
home on Sagamore Hill from the
Roosevelt hospital on Christmas day.
but a week later was stricken with a
severe attack of rheumatism and sci
atica, from which he had been suf
fering for some time. The rheumatism
affected his right hand and It be

er, called to see him but the Colonel
was asleep In his room. Mia* Strieker
said no one had any Idea that death
was so near at hand.
Flags were placed at half mast In
Oyster Bay Monday.
Sen's Death Broke Him Down.
One of the things that is believed
to have contributed more than any
other to the Colonel's breakdown was
the deaik last fall of his soa, Lieu
tenant Quentln Roosevelt, the aviator.
In action in France. Colonel Roose
velt bore the sorrow of bis death with
a fortitude that was in keeping with
his spirit in public life. He suffered
most pregnant griefs in silence and

There is everywhere the cry ton
roads, and for better roads.
Newa of the death of the former
President was received here hy Mlaa
Josephine Strieker, the Colonel's sec
retary, In a telephone message from
Mrs. Rooaevelt.
Miss Btrieker said that ths eoloael
had suffered an attack of Inflammatory
rheumatism on New Year's day and
had since been more or less confined
to his room.
The attack of rheumatism settled
mainly in Colonel Roosevelt's right
hand and Mrs. Rooeeveit sent at once
for a nurse in the village of Oyster
Bay. Hie condition did not at first
seem to he alarming and the turn for
"the worse is believed not to have come
until Sunday night.
In announcing Colonel Roosevelt's
death, Miss Strieker said:
"Mrs. Roosevelt called me on the
telephone shortly before 7 o'clock, say
ing that the Colonel had died early la
the morning. She did not give me any
particulars and I am leaving at once
for Oyster Bay.
"The attack must have been very
sudden. On New Year's day inflam
matory rheumatism developed in Colo,
nel Roosevelt's right hand which be
came very much swollen. Mrs. Roose
velt sent for a nurse In the village
and the Colonel was made aa comfort
able as possible. It did not occur te
mo st that time that he was serious
ly ill."
Miss Strieker went to Oyster Bay
Saturday to pay the Colonel a vlalt.
She said.
"At that time the Colonel was sleep
ing In his room and I did not see hhn
and there was nothing In the circum
stances of his illness at that time to
Indicate to me that death was near.
Mrs. Roosevelt csiied me this morn
ing and told me of the Colonel's death.
I could hardly believe it.
"Mrs. Roosevelt gsve me no parties,
lars of his death."
It is understood that only Kirs.
Roosevelt snd the nnrse were with
him at the time of his death. The oth

that under the terms of the federal

may deal only with the state highway
! department of roads. Responsibility
for repair of roads upon which fed

the state highway department."
