PACT is SIGNED

PetroSrad. Russia, March AZ, Thurs
day. The all Russian congress of
saNiets, meeting at Moscow today, by
a vote of 1913 to 30, decided to ratify
the peace treaty with the central
powers
M. Ryazonov, prominent Bolsheviki
theorist. and representatives of all the
Bolsheviki party after the vote.
The action of the all Russian con-
gress of soviets in accepting the Ger
man peace clears the way for an
nouncement of allied intentions as re-
CARDS Japanese intervention i'm Siberia
and gives Germany vast opportunities
for political and economic penetration
of the former Russian empire The
decision of the congress is the cul-
mination of peace steps begun by the
BolslleNiN government last December.
Germans Refused Peace
The iirst peace conference at Brest-
Lilvosk WAS aboriive. Germany on
February i5 rejecting the declarations
of Foreign Minister TrotzkN and re-
Suming hostilities against Russia. The
Germans Then made peace with the
nrnmcni there in putting down the
BolsheNiki. TN February 1S the
German advance into Russia was re-
newed and the Dvina river crossed at
Dvinsk.
Meeting with little opposition, the
German advance soon menacea Pet
rograd and The Bolsheviki government
decided to accept Germany's peace
terms. Foreign Minister Trotzky re-
fused TO go on to Brest-Litovsk and
Premier l.enine sent Zinovetf close
follower of his.
Trotzky Resigns
The pacilist pOIicy of Premier I,eninc
brought break in the Bolsheviki
ranks and Trotzky resigned several
days ago. This apparently had no eff
feet on l.enine's mastery of the con-
grcss of soviets
BY the peace terms Russia must
give up Courland, Livonia, Esthonia
and the Ukraine. In Asia Minor the
Russians are compelled TO retire from
Armenia and tu cetlc to the Turks the
Russian districts of Batoum, kars and
EriNan.
Russ Losses Big
Russia must renollnce all claims to
ihc occupied territories in Europe,
Germany and Austria Hungary to de-
eide the fate of these regions in agree
ment with their populations. The Rus
sian army must be demobilized and
Russian War ships are to be disarmell.

the Black and Baltic seas and the sign

new commercial treaty, with guaran-

Wiki also promised to put an end to all
