Doesn't Trust Russia

~. tOu huculIldu uSScFIcO Lnat tn(
pacific intentions OF Russia could M
longer be credited, but he said tina,
even today Germany was prepared t
conclude peace, which corresponds
with our interests" He instanced the
peace agreement with the Ukraine as
an indication of the readiness of the
central powers for peace. He refer.
red especially to the advantages which
the Teutonic allies would derive dur.
ing the present year from the econom.
ic treaty with the Ukraine, and rec.
commended the approval of the com.
pact.
Speaking on the first reading of the
Ukraine treaty, DR.. Won Kuehlman
said the Ukraine peoples republic was
a young state, reared on the ground of
the former Russian empire after the
decaying edifice of the Tsar's empire,
which shared the principal guilt fol
kindling the worlds war, collapsed
under the blow of the German armies.
The Ukrainian race was one OF the
strongest elements of the Russian EN-
pire. In respect to it's minerals, coal
and iron, the Ukraine. was very rich
and also possessed elements of its own
industry. 's .'"a
eolsheviks Showed Bad Faith
The great Russian representatives
of the Bolsheviki, the foreign secre
tary continued. maintained friendly
relations with the Ukraine so long as
Leon Trotzky, the Boisheviki foreign
minister, could assume that the PEG
pies republic of the Ukraine would
primarily direct their policies accord
ing to the interest of the Petrograd
cabinet When, however, the Ukraini.
ans realized that the Petrograd cabi
net was not pursuing sincere peace
policy, the representatives Of the
Ukraine adopted the standpoint of
ending the war by peace; they would
in no-wise be responsible for the sins
Of czarism. .. .-
1.-THE negotiations were not quite az
easy as in most cases with such young
peoples" said DR.. Won kuehlmann.
National Ideals Exuberant"
National ideals and desires were
not free from the exuberance Of their
representatives. They made territor.
ial demands which were hardly capa.
BILE of realization. The demarkation
of the frontier with Russia had to be
left for a later period-afterS discus
sions with the Russian government
then in power. The only thing that
concerned us was to lay down to
western frontiers OF the new state, in
which demarkation OF the frontier as
regards Poland received the most at
tention and experienced the liveliest
criticism from the Poles"
DR.. Won Kuehlmann said that with,
out being too sanguine he believed the
country hailed peace with the Ukraine
with relief and Joy "as the first step
toward restoration Of general peace
which we all hope to attain within
measurable time"

German Cries for Help

Responding to German cries of help
from Esthonia and Livonia, Germany
resolved to march further into the in.
terror in order to save from certain de.
struction those unhappy nationals liv-
ing In those provinces. In full accord
with our allies we decided not to par.
ticipate in this military action. Our
aim, therefore, remains what 1t was
bef0re-to bring help as speedily as
possible to the Austro- Hungarian ma
tionals still on Russian SOIL"
DR.. Won Seydler announced that TO-.
600 prisoners had already arrived from
Russia, and that negotiations would be
resumed with the Petrograd govern
ment for the exchange of prisoners.
Peace for the People
What was secured at Brest. Litovsk
was peace for the people, and the Aus
tro-Hungarian peoples would never
have understood il we had rejected
this peace, or rejected the possibility
of obtaining wheat merely in order
that Ch0lm In its entirety and uncon-
diti0nally should fall to Poland. What
would the empires reply have been II
the foreign minister had returned and
admitted that he had spoiled the
chances Of peace because he refused
to the Ukrainian population Of Chohn
the same right to be heard as is pos
sessed by the Polish part?"
Quotes Wilson
DR.. Won Seydler here quoted Presi.
dent Wilson'S phrase that peoples and
provinces must not be transferred
from one state of authority to another
merely as pawns in a game, and con-
tinued:
"Had we acted as the gentlemen of
the Polish club demand, we should not
only have failed to conclude peace
with Ukraine, but should have severed
the delicate threads which may per-
haps lead to general peace, and the
voices raised in defense Of such pol
icy. would have been drowned under a
raging hurricane Of Indignation from
all the Austrian races. .-..
"In view of these various considera-
tons, l must also emphatically reject
certain insinuations which have been
made concerning the relations be-
tween Austria Hungary and Germany"
The premier's speech was received
throughout with unusual demonstra.
ton of approval, except from the
Poles, who, however, remained calm,
though showing occasional signs of
dissent.

Denver.-Governor Julius G. Gunter
has issued the following proclama-
ton:
The growing observance of Father
and Son Week has afforded opportun'
ity for the expression OF those fine re-
lationships between father and son oil
such priceless value in the life OF the
boy. 1t will establish tie OF com.
radship between father and son, which
under pressue of business and other
affairs, is being driven out of the life
of both.
The uniting of the latent powers OF
fathers and sons makes not only for
moral and spiritual betterment, but
for economic and social improvement.
1t provides a most effective means OF
focusing resources of the entire com.
munity upon the building of character
In the hearts and lives of both boys
and men.
Owing to the war many Will be de-
prived of the privilege of having their
sons with them, but all can enter into
the spirit of the movement. They can
carry before their eyes that stalwart
figure in khaki and receive consola-
tion in the thought Of the sacrifice
that has been made in a just cause.
Nothing is more important than an
intimate and sympathetic relation be-
tween father and son; nothing more
stimulating and helpful to both faith
ers and sons than an intimate feeling
of comradship and mutual understand
ing.
Therefore, I, julius C. Gunter, COVER
nor of Colorado, do hereby declare
February 18th to 18th as Father and
Son Week, and urge upon the citizens
of this commonwealth its observance
to the end that the home may be safe
guarded and the democracy of the
family preserved.

ly reiterated his assertions made in a

the President did not know the truth,
and that he did.

ities that there will be a demand for ent season to outfit 2,000 teams, and all of it must be exported from New York
 A special report to the Departments Of Commerce from Vice Counsul Stewart & Hayes at London states that the demand for athletic equip ment in England has been decreased since the war began about 50 per cent on all goods except footballs, boxing gloves and baseball parapher. nala. The supply of baseball equip ment has at all times been less than the demand, which foreign dealers being unable to gauge the market, they continued to order insufficient quantities until the restriction of i'm ports made the obtaining of such goods extremely difficult.
 At present, with the American Army and Navy forces in England, the demand has reached proportions
 
 that cannot be satisfied without large supplies being shipped from the Unit ed States The books of a large London sports store indicate the in crease for baseball equipment since 1914. In 1913 the approximate value of baseball imports was $10,000, in 1916 $30,O00, in 1917 $40,000 and in 1918, to date $57,000.
 On the other hand, the demand for cricket, tennis and golf equip, ment has decreased as much as six ty per cent and more. It is not believed that this indicates any per manent loss of favor by these sports, but it is due to the fact that they require special playing fields diffi- cult to obtain, while an impromptu game of baseball may be organized at a moments time. The age limit Of the British army was set at Al years in April 1916 with the prospect of being raised to 50 so that every ,able-bodied man is engaged in some work of such national importance that he has no time for the widely-popu lar amateur sports of peace times.
