Washington, March 14.-Represen-
tatives of the Czech nation at Prague
have made a public declaration of
their nations unshakeable will and
unassailable right to self-determina-
ton and complete political independ-
ence from Austria. All reports of the
proceedings of the Czech representa-
tives We're ordered suppressed by the
Austrian censors but details have
reached the Czecho-Slav national
council here and today were made
public.
The constituent assembly of the
lands of the Bohemian crown met in
Prague January 6 with more than
ESQ Czech deputies of the Austrian
reichsrat and the national diets of
Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia, elected
by the free choice of the people of the
Czech lands in attendance, conStitut-
ing a legal representation of the whole
nation.
The declaration, adopted by unani-
nous vote, is looked upon as proof
of the sentiment of the whole CZecho-
Slav nation and of their attitude to-
wards the government and the ruling
classes of Austria. 1t cites the decla-
ration of the Czechs at the time of the
Franco-Prussian war when they said ::

small, have the same right to self de-
termination and in the same manner
they must be considered equal"

REBELS GET GOVT ARMS
Chinese President Ready to Resign
Trouble Brewing Fast.

Peking. Monday, March 1.-THE
mysterious movements of troops by
Governor Chang Soulin of Mukden
province, coupled with the reported
desire of President ng-Wwo-Chang
to resign is causing speculation in the
capital.
General Chang Soulin recently in
tercepted a large shipment of arms
from Japan intended for the use of
the Chinese government. The seizure
was made on the allegation that there
was danger CT the arms falling into the
hands of the enemies of the northern
military leaders thru evil counsel in
the government.
Shortly thereafter General Chan
Soulin began to move his troops
southwark, ostensibly to aid the north
ern leaders against the southern
rebels. His troops are now at Lawn
Chow, Shanhaikwan and Tien Tsin in
Chihli province in which Peking also
is situated.
President Fengs desire to resign
was expressed at a cabinet meeting
where he produced a telegram which
he proposed to send to the provisional
government declaring that the situa-
ton was too difficult for him to solve.
The president is said to have withheld
his resignation temporarily on the
advice of the cabinet pending negotfa-
tions with General Chang Soulin for
the removal of his troops and the re-
storation of the arms he seized

(By the Associated Press)
The Germans now hold Odessa, the
great Russian seaport on the Black
sea, which probably will be used either
as the base for an invasion of India
by way of Persia, or as the terminal of
the grain shipments from Russia to
the central empires. Turko-German
plans in the Caucasus, incl Lding the
surrender by Russia of three Cau-
casian provinces which would provide
roadway to Persia and the Caspian
sea, are opposed by the Caucasus gov
ernment. Turkey has been informed
that the Caucasus government does
not recognize the treaty with the Boil
sheviki and that it should treat with
the Caucasus direct
Favorable weather on most of the
western front has led to increased
fighting, but none of the armies has
yet made an attack in great strength.
All apparently are keyed up to the
highest pitch and the raids into oppos-
ing trenches are becoming stronger
each day.
In the Champagne region, where the
German artillery has been very active,
the French have withstood a German
attack. The effort was reEulsed by
the French with severe losses to the
and American gunners both are busy
on the sectors northwest of Toul and
east of Luneville. The Germans do
not remain in their trenches to fight
the Americans, but flee to the rear
lines when General Pershing's men
appear. British troops in the Ypres
area Wednesday took the initiative
and in a raid southeast of Polygon
wood captured thirty-seven prisoners
and three machine guns and inflicted
casualties on the enemy.
The German artillery activity is in
tense on the Ypres sector and between
Arras and Armentieres, where strong
German raids ee-rlier in the week wers
repulsed by British and Portuguese
troops.
Capture Six Palestine Towns. -
On the coastal sector in Palestine
north of Jaffa the British have ad-
vanced three miles on an eleven mile
front Six villages were taken and
two streams crossed in the face of
Turkish resistance. A slight advance
also has been made on the Jerusalem
Mabulus road in central Palestine.
British shipping losses for the past
week total eighteen vessels, the same
number as was lost in the two pre-
vious weeks. There is an increase,
however, in the number of large ships
sunk. Fifteen of 1000 tons or over
are reported this week, while in the
previous two weeks the ships of large
tonnage numbered fourteen and
twelve respectively.
German airships again raided the
east coast of England Wednesday
night and a number of bombs were
dropped Tuesday nights Zeppelin
raid was ineffective.
