Offer of Submission by The
BOlsheUiki Ignored by
advancing TeutOn
Germans P1 ObabIy Intend TO Seize
Large Part of Russia and
ExfOrt Heavy Tribute

Notwithstanding the Bolsheviki have announced their
willingness to conclude an immediate peace on the central pow
ers' terms, the German armies are continuing to advance into
~GreatsRnssia. The German headquarters statement today re-
ports a further forward move of the German forces which re-
Gently crossed the Dvina on the northern front and occupied
Dvinsk.
They pushed on east and northeast of that city yesterday it
is announced. Germany undertook this campaign to safeguard
peace and order in the occupied regions on her eastern frontier,
DR.. Won Kuehlmann, the German foreign minister, told the
Reichstag main committee yesterday. She had lost faith in the
intentions Of Russia, he declared.
Nevertheless, Dir. Won Kuehlmann announced, Germany
even now was ready to make a peace with the Russians on a
basis which would protect Germany interests. 1t seems prob
able that his address was made before the Bolsheviki protest
and offer of submission was received in Berlin, but the con
tnued advance of the German armies reported today makes it
appea. that the German military authorities at least are in no
haste to check the forward movement. The Bolsheviki govern
.ment, in this connection reports, that General Hoffman,, Ger
man military representative at the Brest-Litovsk peace con
ference has asked that written confirmation Of the Russian
wireless peace offer be sent to Dvinsk. The Russians have for
warded such confirmation to Dvinsk by messenger, they an
nounce. Every effort is being made by the Austrian authori-
ties to convince their people that the peace made with the
Ukraine was not only one Of the greatest material advantage
TO the central powers but that any injustice that might have
been done to Poland by subtracting, from her the province Of
Cholm and giving it to the Ukraine will be remedied.

foreign minister said he hoped Ger
many's new wal with Russia would
strengthen the inclination for peace
at Petrograd.

pared to conclude a peace which cor
responds with our interests"
The foreign secretary said the wire

to sign a peace agreement on the
terms dictated by the central powers.
He said he would like o warn the
members Of the reichstag main COM
mittee against the belief that peace
with Russia was in their pockets, adj
ding, Peace with Russia will have
been arrived at only when the sigma
lures on the treaty are dry"
Or. Won Kuehlmann said the coi-
duct of the Russian delegates at the
peace negotiations at BrestLitovsk
and in particular that OF Leon Trotz-
ky, was without precedent in his
tory. With his last declaration, tho
foreign minister declared, M. Trotz-
ky attempted to extricate himself
from a position which had become
~untenab1e and he was not really de-
sirous of concluding peace.
After saying the pacific intentions
Of Russia could be credited nc longer
but that even today Germany was
prepared to conclude a peace which
corresponds with /. our interests" the
foreign minister refers to Ukraine.

(By Leased Wire to New Mexican
Amsterdam, Feb. 20.-During 3
short session of the Reichstag yes
terday according to Berlin dispatches
today DR.. Herman Paasche, the vice
president. discussed the Ukrainian
peace and Germany's intentions il
the east and concluded by decla--
ing;
However much we desire peace,
we are firmly resolved to hold out
with genuine German LOYALTY until Il
peace is attained which guarantees
us, in a free country, washed by a
free ocean, and the certainty of
healthy development"
The Ukrainian peace. DR.. Paasche
said, showed that the central powers
were in earnest agreement with the
emperor's declaration that they were
waging no war of conquest, as that
peace was made without indemnitits
or cessions of territory and was 4
peace honorable to both parties and
mutually advantageous. Blame. for
the resumption OF the war with Rus
STA could not be placed upon the
central powers, he asserted. The
B~olsheyiki when they found the Ger
mans could not be enticed to destroy
the foundations OF civic liberty, he
said, broke off the negotiations.

he continued. "and we hope that n

the races which severed themselves
from old Russia, according to the
principles Of the right Of s~elf-deter-
mination, to return to peaceful work,
freed from the terrible scourge Of
the %Bclsheyiki border hordes."
"Honest Desire" fer Peace
The honest desire for the peace ex.
pressed by Chancellor Won Hertling,
continued DR.. Paasche, had been re-
by these enemies of the cen
trail powers, despite the fears engen-
dered by the possibilities of an at
tack by the German armies and they
oomported themselves as though they
they could force their win
upon the central powers. The Ger
people, however, had shown
them by victorious military opera
tons that their strength was un-
and unbreakable.

"A break through was secured in
Russia only after the morale of the
Russians had been undermined. The
same was true in Italy and we wit
messed how speedily the Italian line
was mended. During the week there
has been much activity of a minGr
character along the entire western
front. In Lorraine a segment of the
line is entirely under the control OF
our forces. Along our front patrol
encounters were numerous. The Ger
mans undertook a raid against our
positions and succeeded in inflictipg
a few casualties. A small American
patrol while scouting in No Mans
Land, was ambushed by the enemy.
Hostile aircraft made frequent
flights to reconnoiter our positions,
A marked improvement in our anti
aircraft barrage is reported. Artil-
lery duels took place and the Ger
mans showered our lines with gas
shells, which, however, caused no
casualties owings to efficient gas

which our batteries co-operated sue

to the assault southwest of the

about $500 yards. The French suc-
ceeding in penetrating the German
positions, broke through the second

During this brisk attack the French
destroyed many enemy shelters, in

The additional liquidation and bear
