about the autonomous government OF

Siberian duma at the beginning OF
February, 1918. and proclaimed as It's
main aim the restoration of order In
Siberia, the reunion with the allies and

After this the floor was given to

Upon adopting this resolution the

pause three Czecho-Slovak officers
who were present at the conference.

Slovak officers. and the municipal
council decided to send the Czecho-
sloVaks an official message greeting

Vinclal duma, in the city of Tomsk.

the Brest-Litovsk treaty which be-
trayed Russia and Siberia to German
imperialism--the Autonomous Siberian
government is capable of uniting the

organizations.
The declaration of the Siberia
duma by which the government Of
autonomous Siberia must be guided
IS a nun guarantee of the democratic
spirit of the government and of its
policy.
With these as starting point. the

stops at AccotInk, Alexandria and

night. arriving at Accotink about
