the Interpretation which Washington

General Pershing in the briefest of a
report on the subject simply announc-
ed that he had been killed in action.

wounded at the time is not yet known.
1t naturally was assumed here that
Roberts was a party to one of the
many clashes that have market the

was another of those trench raids

in the announcement. II was said. was
the revelation that American soldiers

WASHINGTON. May 6.-The state

of the Russian soviet asserting that
the American consul at Vladivostok
improperly encouraged the establish-
ing of an autonomous Siberian gov
ernment.
Entente diplomats also received the
soviet's protest. 1t suggests all had
been over friendly with the Siberian
revoIutionists. The state department
has not yet replied but indicated it
will answer that the American consul
is not guilty Of improprieties and did
not encourage a separate government.
The department suggests the Vladivo-
stok consul is necessarily compelled to
deal with many factions which prob
ably is the basis OF the soviet's objec-
tions.

sized that the United states is neutral
