POLES AND SOVIET . EACH SEE TRIUMPH IN LATE PEACE PACT

(By Associated Press) RIGA. Oct. 12 Experts were enriged today In completing the Ukrainn text of the armistice and preliminary peace treaty between Poland and Russia and Ukraine. Completion of this work was the last preliminary to signature of the convention which was framed after 20 days of negotiation. Many complications have arisen while the peace delegations have been deliberating on the terms of the preliminary treaty. Polish and Lithuanian troops have been fighting along the frontier between those two countries, there has been a general upsetting of stable conditions in the Balkan states, and mauy members of the big Polish delegation have been striving to prevent M. Dombski, chairman of the delegation and the Polish peasants party from strengthening their position in Warsaw. Soviet Satisfied Both Adolf Koffee. head of the Russian soviet peace mission and DombBki express satisfaction with the terms agreed upon. The Bolshevik insist the preliminary treaty i3 much less favorable than the peace offered Poland last February and the failure of the Poles to have a financial settlement Included in the preliminary convention has been generally regarded as a-soviet triumph. M. Joffe has had much experience at peace conferences and the complete agreement reachd by the members of the soviet delegations gave the Bolsheviki chairman an advantage from the first. At no time during the negotiations has the soviet mission shown a divided front. Poles See Victory Poland, however, obtained more territory than it seemed likely the conference would grant when it opened, and many Polish observers regard the corridor shutting; off Lithuania from Russia as a victory outweighing any concessions made. While the principals tn the negotiations insist the terms eventually will lead to the signature of a permanent treaty which will permit restoration of normal conditions in central Europe, there is much pessimisrr. among diplomats and observers not participating in 'the conference. The French are clearly dissatisfied and apparently desired a continuation of the war. The bottling of Lithuania is generally regarded as a doubtful ex periment and the occupation of Vilna by General Zellgouskis men has created a 'suspicion that he Polish government had knowledge of the plan which was supported by Polish landlords in Lithuania. There is much speculation here as to whether the Bolsheviki will be abte immediately to throw large forces from the Polish front against General Wrangel, in South Russia. Bolsheviki delegates declared large forces already are opposing Wrangel, and that no necessity exists for the dispatch of reinforcements to that front.

BUSINESS METHOD TALKS Short Talks Prepared by Merchandising Dept. of The Richmond Palladium

THE MACHINERY OF DISTRIBUTION There is no science of merchandis ing. There are, however, many broad principles based on common sense. If these are followed, they lift a man from the ranks of the shopkeepers to the merchant class, make a salesman out of an order-taker and a distributor out of a jobber. These ideas and principles are useless to a man unless he applies them and fits them to his own business. The golden rule of success in business is common sense plus energy. It's logic applied to facts. There is a certain element of luck in business. That's admitted. But success comes where constructive thinking backs up energy and personality. Merchandising means more than retail selling. This term includes all the processes by which products are brought from maker to user from manufacturer to consumer. It includes the much joked at traveling man, whose entertainment items in his ex

pense account have recently been under the Federal Trade Commission's spotlight. But remember the traveling salesman or manufacturer's agent serves a real economic function. Then there's the berated jobber. He's the fellow that the cartoonist pcitures on the front page. But without him tilings would cost more. The retailer is last, not only in the line of distribution but in his merchandising ability. Each of these three connecting links between maker and user might be eliminated in Utopia. They were not needed right after the Garden of Eden. But tbey can't be taken out of the processes of distribution now. In the distribution of some special lines of goods some one of these links may seem to have been eliminated, but analysis will show that a double function with every little saying is being performed by the other cog. The mail order house acts as salesman, wholesaler and retailer, but mail order houses cannot sell you goods any cheaper than retail stores.

PARIS, Oct. 12 France and Great Britain have sent a joint note to Poland advising moderation concerning the question of frontiers, according to the Petit Parisiene. Active exchanges of views concerning the occupation of Vilna by Polish Lithuanian troops is proceeding, says

the Echo de Paris, which declares !

the Warsaw government is not involved. The newspaper adds that the task xt finding a solution to the situ

ation is that of the league of nations, in the opinion of government officials.

ARMENIA PLUNGES INTO NEW WARFARE ON TURKISH BANDS

ERIVAN, Armenia, Oct. 12. Armenia has plunged into new warfare against bands of Turks and Tartars. Her army commanded by General Seboc is estimated at 34,000 men who Emma Francess Stephens, age 9', since last spring. All are able-bodied, their ages from 17 to 45 years. The reason for the fighting is the fact that the interests of the Armenians and the Moslems cannot be reconciled. A Bolshevik mission has been here since the conference at Baku of representatives of nations in Caucasia and Trans-Caucasia, but the Armenians are afraid to go Bolshevik, fearing they may be subjected to the same disorders that occurred at Baku recently. The only concrete result of the Baku conference has been a decision by Soviet agents to discontinue present attempts to forcibly communize

Islamic countries and they are confining themselves to propaganda, which is principally anti-British. Tartars and Persians have been attacking Armenia for the purpose of establishing a corridor from Baku to Angora, in Asia Minor. Armenia is in the .same condition as her neighbors. Her population is living from hand to mouth and has developed a sort of gypsy psychology. Thousands of refugees are always on the march and prey upon starving bands of Tartars, who also prey upon each other. Twenty-nine Americans are engaged in the work' of feeding 25,000 orphans in Armenia, having their center of supplies at Alexandropol. While the Armenians believe they have food enough until February, unless the invasion of Turk and Tartar raiders is successful. Crops are short throughout the entire country due to the prevalent lowlessness.

says the Dublin correspondent of the London Times.
