partment from Dubno to Omsk to' re
port on conditions in Siberia, has ad
Vised the government here that the
next 30 days will prohaMy gee a cri

A lack of material aid from the al
lies has lieen a tremendous handicap
for Kolchak, the report states, and
this baa led to friction between the
military commanders of the Kolchak
forces. The forces are small, number
ing not more than 200.000 men, the
ambassador advises, and their equip

WARNING IS MADE
- AGAINST VIOLENCE
Mayor of High Point Tells Unionists
Thai They Most Nat Resort to Vio
lence. Special to Greensboro News.
High Point. Aug. 22. "Whereas. In
formation has come to me from what
secuis to be authoritative sources that
an effort may be made tonight, or at
some other time, to unlawfully inter
fere with the watchmen ami custodians
of private property in the city of High
Point, and
'Whereas, it Is my duty as mayor of
the city of High Point to see that
law and order is preserved N and the
laws be oleyed, and that the rights
of all good citizens be protected."
"Now, therefore, this is to notify
each and. all that any such infraction,
Or attempted lntmctlon, f 'The la'
will lie dealt with summarily," reads
the proclamation issued this afternoon
by Mayor I). A. Htauton following the
receipt of reports that union men were
contemplating denuding certain plants
of their remaining force, watchmen.
No explanatory statement accompanied
the proclamation, of the mayor and no
Interview was handed out.
This Is the first official notice taken
of the present situation so far as can
be learned. The air of tenseness which
has been noticeable for the past few
days merely seems to be a little more
so today, but, as a matter of fact,
there was less to uttntct the attention
of the authorities during the morning
and afternoon than there was yester
day. The addition pf women to the ranks
of the unionists engaged in pluketing
bout the manufacturing plants that
are still attempting to operate with
strictly non-union labor was the out
standing development of the labor sit
uation here today.

warning the Bucharest government
that the reparations under the Ger

entirely cut off if the Roumanians con
tinue to make requisitions and that all
requisitions already made by the Rou
manians in Hungary will be deducted
frvm that nation's share from the In

Roumanian soldiers still continue to
seize foodstuffs, farming machinery
and other materials in Hungary .and
are sending them to Roumania, -tout
the fact that an important railroad
bridge In the Roumanian frontier has
been wrecked, mukes it Impossible
for the goods to enter Roumania.
