Interior Against Separate Peace.


 Vologda, Russia. March 1.-(By the Associated Press)-The interior of Russia, following the example of Moscow, declared strongly against separate peace with Germany. Work mems and Soldiers Councils in many provincial centers are issuing nobil- ization orders proclaiming a fight to the finish in behalf of the revolution.
 An example of the tendency being shown in interior Russia to follow the example of Moscow and declare against a separate peace with Ger many and for a fight to the limit for the revolution is furnished by the ac- tion of the Council of Soldiers and WOrSmcn's delegates at Penza, some $50 miles southeast of Moscow. The council has declined to approve the signing of a peace treaty with the Central Powers and has declared for a holy war. The council at NarVa, by a vote of 40 to IS, called for gen. eraI mobilization and against a sep arate peace.
 General mobilization orders have been issued in Kazan province. In these orders all the soviets are urged to fight Germany to the bitter end. Similar action has been taken by the councils at Voronesch, in southern central Russia, and in other cities.
 In Moscow the Social Democrat, q Bolsheviki organ, declared on Thurs day:
 ''The Russian proletariat, with all it's strength, must dismiss any thought of a disgraceful surrender of it's aims and must rise to the defense of the revolution. To arms. Either death or victory"

NO PROPOSAL BY JAPAN FOR ANY
 MILITARY ACTIVITY IN SIBERIA;
 PREPARED TO PROTECT FAR EAST

London, March 2.-Reuter's It
 has issued the following statement from an authoritative Japanese source in London:
 Japan has put forward no Sugges- tions regarding any action that may be necessary as a result of the Russian situation. The plain facts are that few days ago Japan made Inquiries to the Allied governments asking for an expression of their views on the latest developments in Russia. Fherc has been no proposal, military or other wise by Japan.
 Ut is pointed out that Japan did not enter the war under any terms or suggest that there had even been any question of aggrandizement in the mind of Japan. There was no such thought when Japan embarked on hostilitcs and if she has to extend operations, her object will not be ag- grandiZement.
 The new menace is one directly threatening the Far East and imme- d1ately involving Japans security. Japan's interpretation of her position IS that she is responsible for the maintenance of peace and security in ready exists in East Siberia and was well known to the Allies before the latest German advance into Russia" ."
