RED DELEGATE SAYS SOVIETS CAN’T BE BEAT Makes Light of Assistance Which Allies May Give Gen. Wrangel. LONDON", An g. 19.—Breaking the pledge of silence which was Imposed npon him by the British government, M. Kameneff, head of the bplshevik trade mission, today gave an exclusive interview, in which he made the prediction that Russians eventually will capture Waraw and defeat Gen. Wrangel, whose de facto government in southern Russia has just been recognized by France. “Soviet Russia can not be beaten,” declared the bolshevik official. “We will take Warsaw. “There is no doubt in my mind on that. "We are not afraid of the allies intervening. “They supported Admiral Kolchalk and he was beaten. They supported Gen. Denikin and he failed. “Even if they support Gen. Wrangel he will be beaten. It would be mnch Detter for the allies if peace were signed now.” Kameneff refused to clarify this veiled threat. Upon being asked if the Russians were determined to sovietize Poland M. Kamaneff made deniel, adding: "If the Polish people want a revolution we would be glad to see It, but we would wash our haDds of It.” Asked if Moscow was urging the Polish workers to rise, M. Kameneff merely shrugged his shoulders and smiled. The Russian official was asked to ex-

plain the “W>iisaw-Dantzlg corridor” clause of the Russian terms to Warsaw. “We do not want the corridor,” declared M. Kamaneff. He refused to discuss this issue further, but intimated that the Russian demand for the corridor had been made as the possible ground for future conclusions to Poland. “It is true that it is not easy to hold socialist meetings in Russia just now,, but our need for labor is so great that we will welcome young and energetic immigrants even if they do hold different shades of opinion,” said the Russian commissioner in reply to a question about political restrictions. He added that he believed socialist workers would And themselves better treated in Russia than in the United States. Some of the Americans, M. Kamaneff said, held views even more extreme than those of the soviet leaders. The Russian would not make any predictions as to the outcome of the RussoPolish conference at Minsk, but said there would be an obstacle if the Poles accepted the French view.” Jud McCarthy Opens Another Men’s Shop A store without a counter or counter case will be opened by Jud McCarthy, owner of the “Jud’s Dads” store, 19 East Ohio street, Sept, 1.

4 SERVICE MEN ON STATE TICKET Democratic Appointment Increases War Representatives. The appointment of Daniel C. Mclntosh, superintendent of the Worthington high schools, as a candidate for superintendent of public Instruction makes four former service men on the democratic state ticket. Three of them were in action overseas and the fourth, like more than 2,000,000 others, served this side. The list of former soldiers who are candidates include Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, candidate for governor; George A. Dehority of Elwood, candidate for treasurer of state; Wood Unger of Frankfort, candidate for reporter of the supreme court, and Mr. Mclntosh. Dr. McCulloch served more than eighteen mouths overseas and was awarded the Croix de Guerre for gallantry under fire at Compiegne while serving with the F reneh Third army. He was on active duty for several mouths on both the American and French fronts. Mr. Dehority was among the first to answer the country’s call, and by one of those strange quirks of fortune, served many months on this side. Mr. Unger was with the Nineteenth division when it hit the Hindenburg line and was wounded three times. He took par: in many of the major offensives overseas and was in the Argonne battle, one of the most desperate ever waged by American troops. The newest candidate, Mr. Mclntosh, served with the 137th machine gun battalion overseas and participated in several of the major " operations. After his discharge he became an in-
