Allies Anxious to Retain
Services of Gen. Robertson
By Associated Press

London, Feb. 19.-Premier LLOYD
George to-day made in the House
of Commons his eagerly
statement regarding the recent army
changes. He said the government
was anxious to retain the services of
General Sir William Robertson as
chief of staff so long as it was COM
patible upon the policy decided upon
in common with Great Britains
allies.
The Premier said the policy of the
government was based upon the as
sumption that the allies had suffered
in the past through lack of concert
ed and co-ordinated efforts 1t had
been decided to set up central au-
thority to coordinate the strategy of
the allies.
The general principles laid down
at the recent session i'm Versailles
of the Supreme War Council were
agreed to by all, the Premier told
the House. 1t also was agreed that
there should be an inter-allied au-
thority with executive powers. The
only difference which arose was as
to its constitution.
The first proposal at Versailles, he
continued, was that the central au-
thorities should consist of a coun-
Gil of chiefs of staffs. but this was
abandoned, inasmuch as ii was re-
garded as unworkable.

Suicide, PetrogrGd Hears

Petrograd, Friday. Feb. 15.-Gen-
eral kaledines, hetman of the Don
Cossacks, committed suicide at Novo
Tcherkask, headquarters of the Don
Cossacks, during Il session of the
Novo Tcherkask government which
he attended. The government de-
cided to resign and transfer its pow
er TO the local Workmen's and Sol
diers' Council. After the decision
General Kaledines went to an ad-
Joining room and shot himself.
General NaZaroff, who succeeded
General Kaledines as leader of the
Don Cossacks, ordered the immedi-
ate mobilization and arming of all
Cossacks to fight the Bolsheviki
troops advancing toward Novo
Tcherkask.
AS leader of the Don Cossacks.

the BolshevilIi and he was the leader
of the counter revolt against the
BOlsheviki early last December. On
January l the republic of the Don

July. 1916, Russian troops under
General Kaledines captured 10000
prisoners in an advance in Volhynia.
He was elected leader of the Don
Cossacks in July, 1917.
