Berlin, March 20 (via Copenhagen.
The communists in Germany, acting
shevik government, have fixed the
middle of April as the time for the
overthrow of democracy in Germany,
the establishment of a soviet govern
ment in Berlin and the complete Boil
shevizing of Europe as far west as
the Rhine. | gain this information
from a great variety of sources.
Two indications of it's truth are so
patent there is no escaping their sig
nificance. The workmen and soldiers
council has appointed April Is as the
day on which to supersede the Wei
mar national assembly as the national
legislative body. The Weimar assem-
bly, has failed to play any important
role, while the workmen and soldiers
council has the mass of the working
men behind it. BY declaring another
general strike it will give the Ebert
government hard military task in
the interior of the country, and as
Colonel Reinhard of the famous
Reinhard division said in an interview
] cabled to the Jorunal and the New
York World:
......s4s,WiH BE Difficult Task
Another time7it will not be so easy
to put down the Spartacan move
ment,"
This task will be harder on account
of the other significant Indication
the activities of the Russian Bolshevik
army.
From sure source I am informed
that the recent interior changes in
Russia by which the Menshivik and
right social revolutionists were in
duced to cease fighting the MOSCOW
government and the Czecho- -Slovaks s
who were sent into Siberia en- route
home. has released the best part of
the Bolshevik army from other
fronts and it is concentrating
against Kovno and Libau. The pres
ent Bolshevik army operating against
Kovno numbers about 100000; that
moving against Libau, $4,000. Troops
en- route will swell these forces by
April to $4,000 against Kovno, and
10000 against Libau.
To Force German Move.
The Bolshevik purpose is to compel
Germany to send all her troops to de-
fend her frontier there, thus making
it extremely difficult for War Minis
ter Noske to end the political strike bv
force as he recently did. A Bolshevik
attack and a general strike coming
simultaneously will prove danger
Gus time for the Ebert government,
and of this the government is aware.
Civilians have been forbidden to use
the railways in western Russia until
April s, next, it is reported This is
significant, for that date is fixed for
beginning a national soldiers and
workmen's council in Berlin-a soviet
congress.
The reason for the suspension of
railway traffic for civilians is to fur
ther the movement of all available
Russian Bolshevk troops to the Ger
man frontier. This activity is intend
ed to pull all the German troops to
her eastern frontier, and to make pos
sible a general strike in Germany and
to overthrow the democratic govern
ment.
Differences Adjusted.
Reports also come from Russia that
what was growing divergence of
opinion among the soviet leaders has
been overcome by their united action
against Germany in the hope of set
ting up q Bo'shevik government in
befllb IHis Wo,liu SAVE tie f'oiehSN, IN
dictatorship in Russia, which recently
was threatened again.
I.ibau is the point where Moscow
agents and the agents of the German
communists have their headquarters.
The Russian Bolshevik army is at the
moment retreating from before Libau
because it is pressed from the west
and the north by the anti-Botshevik
and Baltic troops, composed for the
