10000 CZECHO-
SLAVS TO GIVE
ALLY SUPPORT
Forces in Siberia Expected
to Renounce Bolshevik
Allegiance

The 10000 Czecho-slav soldiers In
Siberia will be persuaded to re-
nounce their agreements with the
Bolshevist party and. will remain
to aid the allies in the peaceful PEN
etration to be inaugurated by the
United States. according to inter
allied officials.
Professor Thomas G. Masaryk.
chairman of the National Czecho-
Slav Council. who negotiated the
agreement with the Bolshevist
leaders and signed it at Tokyo. is
now in Washington. An announce
ment of the position which the SOL
diers under his direction will as
sumo in the Forthcoming allied plan
OF aid to Siberia is expected soon
When the Bolshevist party signed
the German peace treaty the Czecho-
SIav forces agreed to offer no re-
sistance to the operation of the
treaty, provided they were given
full authority to proceed to Vladi-
vostok and there accept the French
offer of services on the Western
front.
Control siberian Railway.
The Czecho-Slav units obeyed the
injunctfons OF the agreement until
they reached Siberia, where Bolshevist
AGED units attempted to prevent
I'm from reaching vladivostok. In
1 fighting which ensued, the Czecho-
Slavs assumed control of much OF the
Trans-Siberian railroad and OF the
Amur line. But their agreement to
leave Siberia was never formally re-
nounced at Petrograd.
1t is assumed by allied officials here
that the declaration of Trotsky that
the Bolshevists will war upon any
allied forces who seek to control the
Thurman coast, or penetrate into
Russian territory, wih serve to bring
>'about an early remuneration of the
agreement signed by Professor
Masaryk.
Many from Poland.
Should such action be taken, it
may be stated authoritatively. the
Czecho-Slavs will be asked to re-
main in Siberia. Many of them
may be moved to France. but a
large proportion of them are from
Poland. and it is believed that they
will gladly accept the proposals Of
the United States and Japan and
remain in Siberia in the hope that
they can later Join in actively re-
establishing Poland as an independ-
ent state.
AS yet no intimation has been
Forthcoming of the time when the
policy of the United States will be
made known by President Wilson.
1t is the general assumption that
the announcement will follow in a
general way the announcement
which preceded the advance of Gen.
Pershing's force into Mexico in 1916.
Some officials believe that the an
nOuncement will come only after
American forces are en- route and
the economic mission has been land
ed in Russian territory. The fact
that Japan has openly discussed
the American proposals, however,
gives grounds for the belief in
some quarters here that President
Wilson may be ready to issue Amer
iCa's avowal at an early date.
