NOT A CLARATION OF
WAR BUT OF DEFENSE
So Tchitcherin Assured Allied Con-
suls When an Explanation Isl
Demanded.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Reports
through Berlin that allied diplomats
have demanded an explanation of a
threat by Lenine, the Bolshevik
premier. of a declaration OF war
against the allierz are assumed here
to refer to the action of American
and allied consuls in calling in a
body August 1, on Tchitcherin, the
foreign commissioners at Moscow.
The consuls, after being told by
Lenine that state of war existed
between Russia and the allies. de-
manded an explanation from
sTchitcherin. They were told that
the statement was not necessarily
interpreted as a war declaration :
that II rather was a declaration of a
state of defense similar to the situa-
ton existing at one time between
Russia and Germany
American Consul Poole informed
the state department OF the incident
in message dated August receiv-
ed here six days later. He has not
been heard from since.
The next word that was received
from Moscow was press report
transmitted to the state department
stating that the British and French
consular officials had been placed un-
der arrest by the Bolsheviki. Since
these events transpired, Lenine and
Trotzky have fled to Kronstadt. ac-
cording to reports from several
sources. The state department is
awaiting further word from Mr.
Poole with keen interest.

Recent Drives of Allies Ends the Menace to Paris,

Railroad Line Paris to Chaons

With the French Army in France
Aug. 15.-After the battle of the
Avre, the situation of the belliger-
ents presents a chang> which for
rapidity and extent has rarely been
approached in military history
Marshal Foch's strategy and the
mastery tactics OF the generals com
manding the armies and groups of
armies under him have in three
weeks wrested from the Germans
what required four months for them
to obtain at a cost variously esti-
mated at from 100000 to 100000
men.
The immediate results of the
counter-offensives which will have
the greatest bearing on subsequent
operations are the clearing of the
Chateau-Thierry pocket, ending the
menace of Epernay and Paris: the
liberation of Montdidier, ending the
menace to Amiens; the freeing of
the important eastern railroad line
from Paris to Chalons, and the
equally important northern line from
Paris to Amiens, restoring to the
allies means of communication
which give them enormously greater
ease in future movements of troops.
These successes render impossible

DRAFT MAY NOT THIN
RANKS OF RED CROSS
President Wilson Expresses the Hone
That They May Continue in
Present Endeavors.

Washington, Aug. 15.-President
Wilson expressed the hope that Red
Cross workers within the proposed
new draft ages, Is to As, will "con-
tinue to render service unless and
until specifically called to other and
more important duty" In a letter
TO Henry p. Dawson, chairman of
the Red Cross war council. the Presi-
dent wrote:
Il hope that the action we have
taken in the matter of voluntary en-
listments will help a little in the So
luton of the difficulties created for
the American Red Cross by the prob
able extension OF the drat. ages. II
the government does the selecting
1t can select withA due regard to the
interests of all services, whether
within the government or without
whereas If we permitted men liable
to be drafted to rush in and apply
for and obtain commissions, there
would be chaos indeed.
-"As the American Red Cross is
such an important auxiliary to our
armed forces and is also extending
relief. not only to our people at
nome but to the peoples of the ma
t1ons associated with us are suffer
ing as the result OF the war. I hone
that every man connected with the
work. either at home or abroad. will
nave full appreciation OF its i'm
portance and will, If possible, con-
tinue to render service unless. and
until specifically called to other and
clearly more important dury."
Mr.. Dawson had expressed the
rear that enactment OF the new
manpower bill, which would affect
80 per cent of the Red Cross person
mel, would be followed by rush to
the recruiting stations.
