The Coloners statement demanded an
allied army as a nucleus around which
true Russians may rally for the rebuild
ing of their nation. free of German
domination. and that Holland must be a
separate and independent common
wealth.
Gov Walter f. Edge rode in the pa
rade with Col. Roosevelt and introduc ed
him at the high school meeting There
the Colonel urged war until Germany Is
forced to accept an allied peace. He
denounced half-hearted American citi-
zens as worse than enemy aliens, and
pleaded for single language In this
country, In the churches, In the schools
and in the newspapers.
Constantly the Colonel was inter-
rupted by bursts OF applause. Once when
he was denouncing people in this country
who at the outset OF the war argued Il
would be foolhardy for this nation to
send men thousands of miles away to
fight. some one in the audience inter-
rupted him by shouting: Hearst"
Yes, l heard that" quickly retorted

Roosevelt had l.pcheon at the home OF

his views on the much discussed new
German peace drive.
Duty to Speed Up the War.
The one vital work before US at II e

up the war. so as to exert the fully de-
veloped military strength OF this nation
with our utmost strength at tie very
earliest day. We must not be contented
until our army in France Is larger than
the British and French armies combined,
for 1t has been England and France and
Italy who have been protecting US during
our two and a half years OF neutrality
and our one and half years OF prepa-
ration.
I'VE must at all costs fight the war
through until we beat Germany to her
knees. and the victory will not be COM
plete unless the subject races of Austria

be freed and Unidentified and Luxem-

t-tions from Count Won Hertlins's
speech in the Reichstag in which he
took up the subject OF Belgium in con-
nection with the peace situation, are
printed by the semi-otficial North Ger
man Gazette of Berlin 1t quotes the
Chancellor as saying
1T was never our intention to keen
belgium except as a pledge by which
10 secure Germany against future perils,
and until the danger is removed we
cannot surrender our pledge
in peace We must DE guaranteed
against Belgium being used for ground

II must be made to the interest OF Bel

coed IN attaining such an intimate COM
merclal connection, this would bring
about a political agreement with Ger

SAILORS AND MARINES
IN MURMANSK FORCE
Warrington Is uniformed as
to Progress Made.

WASHINGTON. July l5.--Although over
Swallowed by the tremendous develop
ments on the western front. the situa-
ton In Russia and Siberia Is daily pre-
senting new phases. At three widely
separated points have the opposition to
the Soviet Government greatly strength
ened their positions, thus heavily taxing
the inadequate military machine of the
Bolsheviki.
On the shores of the Arctic and the
White Sea the small international Entente
force which has been holding the rail-
road terminus at Kola and Murmansk
has been REINFORCED. and Ia understood
to be advancing southwark along the
railroad toward Vologda and Moscow.
II Is admitted officially that there are
some American sailors and marines in
the neighborhood OF Kola. but 1t IL not
known that they are participating in
this southwark movement. and it is
doubted whether. in the absence OF s7e-
cial Instructions. they would do so un-
less Il were necessary as a defensive
measure
Reports from reliable sources In Swe-
den indicate a surprising change Of SEN
timent among the F1nnlsh people toward
their German controlled Government,
making it impossible for that Govern
men. to raise any volunteer troops to
attack the Entente force on the line OF
the Kola Moscow railroad. This has
greatly relieved the minds Of officials,
who realize that this railroad could he
held only by a very large force and II
attacked from Finland. Cutting off
communication in that way would en-
danger greatly the position OF the En-
tente forces on the Thurman coast
when winter comes.
With Finland practically neutral and
the local population in the Thurman
country coming to the aid OF the En-
tente forces 1t Is believed that the Allies
now are reasonably sure OF being able
10 maintain a channel OF communication
with central Russia and Siberia against
any German attack.
The reported capture OF the important
city OF Kazan, $50 miles east of Moscow.
by Czecho- Slovaks, following precedn z
reports of Bolshevik victories in that
quarter, Is regarded as of great impor-
lance as indicating the speedy extension
Of tho czecho- Slovak control to the whole
Trans Siberian railroad system east of
the Ural Mountains. This control would
place the cities of Moscow and Petro-
grad almost completely at the mercy of
the holders OF the Siberian railroad for
their food supplies
