the troops would defend the revolution but said bread and boots were neces- sary.

Petrograd, Jan. The Izvestia to- day gives the text of a pamphlet which the Bolsheviki are circulating in the lines, in which it is declared that the peace demands submitted by the central powers show the Austro- German promises of a democratic peace to be "unconscionable lies"
 After describing the actions of the Germans in Poland and Lithuania in recruiting forced labor and shooting hunger strikers, the pamphlet con- tinues:
 "The German government only found support in Courland from the hated slave owners, the German bar ons who have their prototypes in the Polish land owners"
 The document declares Germany desires to free the peoples on Russias western frontier from the scope of the Russian revolution in order to subju- gate them with German capital, im- pose an Austrian monarchy on Poland and make Lithuania and Courland German duchies. It concludes:
 "On such a basis the Russian work mems government can never enter negotiations.
