CZECHOSLOVAK
LEADER DUBIOUS
ABOUT OUTCOME
TOKIO.—The end of the war
does not mean peace for Russia says
Dr. Vaclav 'Girsa of the Czecho
slovak National Council who is now
in Tokio. “Peace conferences will
not be able to prevent the internal
struggles in that disorganized state;
that can only be accomplished by
military decision, and can only be
the task of the Allies,” added Dr.
Girsa.
Many divisions of Allied troops
now are needed to help Russia
11 merge from its chaos because said
Dr. Girsa, more than half of the
! Czecho-Slovak troops who were in
Russia when the Brest-Litovsk peace
treaty was signed now are in hos
pitals or in their graves.
Dr. Girsa said the situation of his
troops in Siberia has been well-nigh
insupportable. One division had
been forced to hold for a long time
an immense front. It had been
obliged to guard the railroad, the
important places in Siberia, to or
ganize the munition factories and
maintain order in all the towns. He
quoted a Russian officer from the
fronts as describing the situation
thus: "I am an old soldier and have
seen many military troubles, but
the efforts shown by the Czecho
slovak soldiers in Siberia surpass
all human forces, and I can only
say that the men seem to have
been carried above their normal
condition.”
i Dr. Girsa said that his people
feel that they must perish, but they
wish to fulfill their duty to the last.
They have quite given up hope of
effective military aid, but they are
determined to fight to the last
breath. He expressed the opinion
that the Russian nation would sur
prise the world by its powerful de
velopment in the future. He added:
“We Czecho-Slovaks understand
the Russian people. We have lived
among them during all the great
changes of the war and we feel
| sympathy for them. We can never
forget the immense sea of Russian
blood which was shed during the
first three years of the war. We
must not forget that a great ma
jority of the Russian people have
not said their last word.
“In giving to the Russiun army
protection we had absolutely no
aspiration for political power in
Russia, but such a misunderstand
ing seems to have been our fate
from the very beginning of the war.
Even now we are called by the
! Russians ‘the mysterious Czecho
slovaks.’
Dr. Girsa said it was a fatal mis
1 take to suppose Bolshevism to be a
democratic government. Democracy
endeavors to organize and to rule
the people according to human con
science; but the Botsheviki stamp
out the principles of morality and
culture. Bolshevism was a collect
ive title used for different political
and social phenomena; from the
idealistic Utopia to the criminal and
German propaganda forces.

MONTANA FINDS
NEW FIELD FOR
HELENA, Mont.—With the ces- '
sation of brewing:, as a result of
prohibition in this state, many valu- j
able properties will be reconstructed
or reorganized, some of which will
enter into the manufacture of pro-^
ducts widely differing from that
turned out in the past. Such, for
instance, is the possibility of one or
more of the plants being converted
into manufactories for the pro
duction of potato flour—a transi
tion from a wet to a dry product.
Others contemplate continuing with
wet goods but in the form of non
malt or non-alcoholic beverages. j
Among the twenty Montana brew
eries put out of business perman
ently was one that was established
at Virginia City in 1863—the year
that gold was discovered there.
This brewery is said to be the old
est business establishment in what
is now the state of Montana
The twenty breweries have an
invested capital of $3,172,233, and
their yearly production was 420,
172 barrels a year. They employed
a total of 257 skilled and 50 un
skilled men, and used 22,100 horse
power.
The second oldest brewery in
Montana is the Kessler establish
ment at Helena that started in 1865.
The third oldest was started in
Butte in 1870. The remaining
breweries were all established since
1890.
The most expensive plant in the
state is the malt brewery at Man
hattan with $582,100 invested and
a production of 8.000,000 pounds
of malt a year.
There are three breweries at
Butte, two at. Great Falls, one each
at Billings, Bozeman, Deer Lodge,
Dillon, Virginia City, Helan, Kalis
pell, Lewiston, Manhattan, Missoula,
f'hilp'burg,- Bed Lodge and Towns

FOOD RESTRICTIONS
REMOVED IN ALASKA
The territorial food administra
tion has announced the removal of
all restrictions on the use of food
at public eating places. This in
cludes a complete removal of all
restrictions heretofore announced as
well as the twelve general orders.
The United States Food Adminis- j
tration asks, and the Federal Food
Administration for Alaska also
wishes thnt the greatest importance!
be given to the strictest economy
in the saving of foodstuffs, and also'
in the elimination of waste by all
of the public eating places of i
Alaska. While specific restrictions:
are now removed, the continued'
conservation of all food stuffs is
essential to the end that America
may fulfill her promise to the
Allies and the millions of starving
people in stricken European coun
tries.
A peculiarity clear, tough and dur
able celluloid has been invented in
