to see how they can longer delay evacuation.Their retreat is virtually cut off, but it is assumed that they will be allowed to withdraw.\u201cAnother theatre of potential grave possibilities is Turkestan, where Bolshevist activities are reported to be increasing the Tashkent Government has sent a commissary to Merv (Russian Transcapia), and it is also stated that Lenine, (the Bolshevik Premier), has despatched some German Orientalists from Moscow to spread Bolshevist propaganda.A number of these have gone to India, Persia and toe far east.\u201cThere are now no hostile forces between toe Bolshevists and' Afghanistan, where the Bolshevists are spreading their propaganda assiduously.In South Russia, the Bolshevists made tittle progress during the past week and General Denekine\u2019s troops reported some victories.A strong counter offensive on the right has regained much ground and driven toe Reds back to within thirty miles of Kursk.Southwest of Kiev, volunteers also have taken toe offensive and reoccupied Fasdoff and captured Fer-dichev.The Bolshevist pressure has relaxed- for the moment, and their advance is becoming slower and less extensive.\u201cThe Bolshevist advance in East Russia continues along the whole of the front.In north Russia, there is little change in the situation, due to the whole of the Pirega Valley of Bolshevists.\u201d PRIVY

Wednesday, the first day when a united effort was made in Montreal by the campaigners, over twenty-five new members were secured.Many of the most susceptible prospects have not yet been approached.Montreal has as her objective 160 j new members, and the indications are, as the campaign progresses, that this week-end will see the objective reached, if not exceeded Montreal, however,

has no fuel problem, but when there is failure on the part of the operators it becomes necessary for the railway to keep the wheels turning, and in order that dealers may get coal at all, to intercept suf-! ficient quantities of privately owned 1 coal to make up the deficiency in the deliveries to the railway.\u201cThe Canadian National Railways would not have any fuel shortage if the mine
