Whether all of these matters will be
handled in the Friday night speech is
undetermined. 1t is likely that he
will speak again during the loan CAM
paign.
While it is known that the Presi-
dent feels there is no need of re-
statement of Americas aims in the
great war it'is held likely that he may
seize the opportunity in New York
to answer the Teuton's statements in
declaring that the refusal of America
to accept the Austrian peace propos-
ais reflects an allied determination to
wage a war of complete annihilation
against the Central Empires.

SIBERIAN ARMY
TO REORGANIZE
BATTLE FRONT
Bulwark Against German Ag-
gression Sought by
People

Washington, Aug. 6.-Everywhere
I'm Siberia the population, belonging
to different classes and political
groups, has manifested vivid interest
and sympathy with the organization
of an army. which is intended to re-
establish. together with the Allies, a
battlefront against Germany; and
the formation of this army is pro-
ceeding very successfully, the Rus
sian embassy declared to-day in a
statement explaining the political
situation in Siberia.
The relations of the temporary
government of Siberia, with the
Czecho-Slovaks are stated to be
friendly, and it is the intention of
this government, the embassy as
serts, to reform together with the
Allies, the eastern front, to promote
the unity of Russia and to recognize
all the international treaties and
agreements of Russia which were in
force until the moment of the
Bolshevik uprising.
- Russians in Washington are high
~ optimistic and contented with the
decisions of the United States, Japan
and the Allied nations to send an ex-
pedition to the relief of the CZecho-
Slovaks and to assist Russia in every
possible way. The Czecho- -Slovak
army, 1t was learned authoritatively,
will remain in Russia. having aban-
doned its intention of going to the
western front. being satisfied" 1t
was declared, ito fight Germans and
Austrians wherever they may be
found"
No Sign From Bolshevild
The Bolshevik attitude toward the
American and Japanese action is ex-
pected to be hostile, but up to this
time there have been no advices from
Russia indicating whether the Len
ine-Trotzky regime will make itself
completely the instrument of the
Berlin government in opposing the
Czecho-Sloyak and the American
Japanese forces.
The initial number of American
and Japanese troops to be sent to
Siberia while small, will be sufict-
emily strong to assist in re-establish-
ment of contact between the Czecho-
Slovaks in western Siberia and those
at Vladivostok, but the ultimate size
of the international force will de-
pend, it was emphasized, upon the
strength of the Austro- re-
sistance in Siberia and Eastern
European Russia.
The State Department received a
telegram from Ambassador Francis,
dated July "a, and forwarded by the
American consulate general at Mos
COW, saying the embassy was obliged
to leave Vologda because its COM
munications had been cut. and fear
was in Ambassador Francis mind
concerning what might happen, as
all news was cut off.

the Senate yesterday that the unr
necessary delay in transporting let

themselves.
"I ask the Senate to aid in sparing
these boys in France additional
