BOLSHEVISTS OF INDIANA COUNTY KEEPING QUIET Presence of State Police lias Good Effect on Disorderly Element; No Fear Felt Homer City, where it was reported foreigners had organized a Bolshevist council or soviet, has been a very quiet place since the arrival there of 20 State Tollce.

Homer City is In Indiana County, not fnr from Blairsville and the foreign population has been extremely strong there. A number of flannel mouthed orators have been among the men stirring them with revolutionary teachings and calling upon them for a demonstration of strength on May 1. About 700 citizens of American birth learning what was In the wind also organized themselves and threatened to "shoot up" the Bolshevists if they attempted to parade, and as the Americans are armed the district attorney of that county called on the State Police to quiet the trouble before it started. The State Police have been In the town for several weeks and In Farrcll, another western Pennsylvania mining town where disorderly elements were at work. The foreigners have been telling the members of their organization to "wait until May 1," but those on the Inside do not believe they will attempt a demonstration as the trouble lies principally with a few ring leaders and the rest are merely being led along.

Trouble Is also expected In Chester on May day, where a Bolshevist element has appeared, but they are only a few among many and the American climent of the population will be able to handle disorders that may arise, the authori ties believe. Several Soviets In Phila delphia have decided to march May 1, whether or not they get a police permit, but it Is generally believed their efforts will amount to little, as they are all of foreign birth and most of them the victims of leaders who If removed or silenced will end the trouble. Boys yho Went Away to War Return Stalwart American Men, Says Pusey Although they went away as boys, they are returning as men. Lieutenant Colonel Pusey, divisional quartermaster of the Keystone Division, said last evening in the House of Representatives. "Some, unfortunately, will never come Dack," he said, "and others will not be able to perform their old duties, for many of them have been seriously wounded.

But when you see them marching down the streets in your home cities, you will see as magnificent a body of stalwart Americans as ever assembled anywhere." Lieutenant Colonel Pusev, Captain Henry M. Gross, of this city, and a number of other officers and men of the division who have come home to arrange for the great parade honor of the men, were in this city yesterday to confer, with Adjutant General Beary. It is expected that the parade will be held by May 15. as this will allow ample time after tne last unit nas landed, which isi expected about May 9. No definite report as to the vessels in which the old Governor's Troop Is tailing, has yet been received, although it is known that the unit has cleared Brest.
