Evacuation of Odessa
By Allies Confirmed

PARIS. Auril s-The evacuation of
Allied forces is confirmed officially.
The news caused no surprise here.
The French general in command an
nounced few days ago that he would
hold Odessa to. the last, but Foreign
Minister Pichon told the Chamber of
Deputies on March 81 that the situa-
ton at Odessa was serious because of
the problem of feeding the 800, 900
civilian inhabitants.
The chief cause of anxiety in con-
nection with the evacuation of Odessa
lies in the fact that the most fertile
regions in Southern Russia have fallen
into the hands of the Bolshevik forces,
giving them immense resources of
grain, coal and minerals.
The reason for the Allies retirement
was the constantly increasing menace
of the Bolshevik soldiery against the
Allied garrison, which was able to
maintain its supplies with the great
est difficulty. The commander there
upon, decided to withdraw his troops.
numbering approximately $4,000. The
troops retired to Rumania and Con-
stantinople.
The situation in Rumania and Po-
land is far from reassuring, even with
these additional troops to help form a
Gordon against the spread of Bolshe-
vism. Both Rumanians and Poles re-
quire the largest measure of aid from
the Allies.

tent quarters that General Haller's
Polish divisions should be hurried east

Central Empires will be saved from
ruin by their methods; that the capi-
talists are unable or unwilling to un-
dertake business under present condi-
tions. and that communists will force
the workers to work for moderate
wage, and that the government will
furnish the capital. But when faced
with the problem of securing raw ma
terials from America and other coun-
tries whose capitalists are unwilling
to accept their money in payment, they
talk vaguely about an exchange of
products. But back in their heads is
Lcnincs scheme OF commanding the
whole world, thus making the rich
countries support the poor ones.
Among such communists are Jules
Alparc, a prominent engineer; jules
Hevquehr, Commissioner for the So
ciailzation o. Factories; Professor
Peter Agoston. Chancellor of the For
eign Dtlcc, and other prominent men.
LONDON. April 9.-Count Festetcs,
formerly Hungarian Minister of War
in the cabinet of Count Michael
Karolyi, has committed suicide, accord
ing to a German government wireless
message.
New-York tribune., 1919-04-10

American propagandists, or newspaper
men, knowing that President Wilson
has summoned to Brest the ship which
is to take him back to America, saw in
this natural order an opportunity for
blackmail. They made with the dis
approval Of all Americans who are
friends of France-a bod-faced at
tempt at intimidation. If you are not
more accommodating, they went all
over the city saying, our President Will
return home and YOU can extricate
yourself from your difficulties by your
SELF"
The "Matin's" article pungently criti-
cises the peace conference under large
captions, reading: "Disquieting Mys-
teries in Council of Four. In Five
Months Allied Governments Have Not
Solved Single Problem. Odessa in
Power of Bolshevik.'
The newspaper declares it has been
the method of the conference to put
the concerns of France last. England
and America having got all they re-
quired. says the "Matin," now we
come, we with our bothersome demands,
and if we do not get satisfaction our
country will be financially dead. Such
will be the fruit of our sacrifices"
United States Enjoys Not Surprised
This denunciation has not affected
the American delegates, who apparently
are not surprised at the newspaper
criticism.
While the Americans repeatedly re-
affirm their belief that considerable
progress has been made in the last
three days, one member remarked to-
day:
ut is not bad idea to have the
ship at Brest ready for the return"
Minor officials of the American dele
cation are working with the Entente
delegation, which is making prepara-
tlon at Versailles for the reception
of the German delegates and the
actual signing of the treaty, while
various American experts with the sub
commissions are working day and night
arranging the reports of those bodies,
apparently without intimation of any
possible break in the proceedings.
President Wilson conferred last
night with Secretary of State Lansing
concerning the minority report of the
commissions on responsibility for the
war. which was not clear to the Presi-
dent
lgnace Jan Paderewski, the Polish
Premier, was summoned before the
council of four to-day to present the
claims of Poland. The Premier will
urge that Danzig must be given to
Poland and that Poland must have
the coal fields of Teschen, Silesia,
upon which, it is said, Polish industry
depends.

1t is said that this little, mild man

"never crosses the Presidents will"
This is said to be the secret of Colonel

remaining in the Presidents favor.
AS only the American press was
fully aware of the situation to-day. the

here attempted to give the news, but
they were prevented by the consor.
Paris generally, therefore, knows moth

Unmoved by statements of any sort
or from any quarter in regard to the
character Of the French claims, Pre-
mier Clemcnceau holds firmly to the
agreement entered into by the Council
of -Four not to divulge either the sub
cussions going on.
This statement was made to me this
afternoon by a high French official,
who added:
at would be foolish to deny that the
French demands differ to-day from
what they were originally. They have
been changed or modifed-if you pre-
fer that word-in the course of the
discussions, as new facts and new ar
guments were brought up. But today
am able to tell you that Clemenceau
and all the French leaders consider
that the sitting process has ended.
CAS- they now stand, the French
claims, they believe, are in perfect ac
cord with the fourteen points made by
President Wilson. and they purpose to
stand on them as an irreducible mini
mum dictated by the wellbeing and
safety of their country. These claims,
it may be said with the utmost frank
ness and confidence, are not darkened
by even the shadow of any annexation-
ist demands, while in regard to the
financial eXigencies they courageously
take into account the facts as they
are, while seeking the fullest measure
of justice for nation carefully ex
hausted by aggression"

Paris Expects House

By Frederick Moore

C,,~.oY C,hy. Ca~,;~

PARIS, April 9.-"Unless you want
TO plunge all Europe into chaos, it is
childish to talk Of quitting Paris" said
one of the .most able delegates to the
peace conference to-day. He was ad-
dressing your correspondent as an
American. and referred, of course, to
President Wilson's threat, which,
though made to the American press
through Ray Stannard Baker. Wilson'S
official spokesman, was not made direct
TO the other members of the Council
of Four.
Loss of Prestige Feared
On the other hand, there is view
in American circles that Mr.. Wilson,
having made repeated threats of this
nature, cannot permit his bluff to be
called and retain any prestige what
ever. And prestige is an important
factor to his success.
Everywhere in the Crillon Hotel it
is stated that Colonel House still holds
Mr.. Wilson's confidence, but it is strik-
ingly evident that Colonel House has
been endeavoring to "soft pedal" the
situation to reach an agreement and
prevent more public scandal like that
at present. President Wilson has un-
doubtedly taken the bit in his teeth.
But that Colonel House, the only other
American delegate who counts, will ac-

First Treaty to Haze
No Separate articles

ID ARTS, April 9.-In answer to a
l. letter from the president of the
commission on the budget, asking
the form in which the preliminary
peace treaty would be submitted to
the Chamber of Deputies, Premier
Clemenceau declared to-day that the
constitution, which regards treaties
as valid only after having been voted
upon by both houses, would be OBJ
served. No territory could be relin-
quished, exchanged or annexed, ex-
cept as directed by law:
The Premier added that the pre-
liminary peace treaty would form
one COW nlote entity, which could not
be divlaeu into separate articles, and
could not be submitted to the varl-
GUS commissions until the complete
treaty had been drafted.

PARIS, Apri! 9.-The mission to
Hungary, of which General Jan Chris

and industry is Bolshevik ruse.
The mernbers of the mission say the
&C facto government is we'll installed,
and that during the conferences with
the mission the government showed an
obvious disposition not to quarrel with
the Allies, but rather to meet them
amcably on all questions consistent
with the nature cf the BoIshevik re
gime.
wireless message from Bella
Kun, the Hungarian Foreign Minister,
to NJ. Tchitcherin. the Russian Bolshe-
vik Minister of Foreign Affairs. under
date of April 8, has been Intercepted
by the Paris wireless officials. The
message follows:
Inc German papers are publishing
the stupid story that our dictatorship
is only patriotic mask and the only
way the bourgeoisie of the Central
powers could deceive the imperialism
c. the Entente.
I'VE do not want to use the dicta-
torship of the Hungarian proletariat
to take bourgeois chestnuts out of the
fire for the bourgeoisie When the
German proletariat shall have power
they will not use it for the benefit of
German imperialism, and will throw

Another dispatch under the same
date from Lenine to Bella Kun SAYS:

tion in Bavaria We have only the

plete statement Of how the new state
was established"
Lenine also sent message to Bella
Kun asking him to advise the entire
world that Odessa had been taken by
the Ukranian Bolsheviki.
The American peace delegation has
received advices showing that Lenine is
taking a prominent part in advising the
the new Hungarian government. He is
communicating by wireless, courier
and alrplane, counselling moderation in
order to avoid the errors and excesses
of the Russian revolution.
The Bolsheviki appear to have homes
that communication can be established
between Hungary and Russia and that
Bolshevlsm will break out in Rumania
and Bulgaria.
VIENNA April 8 BY The Associated

that they are being robbed of their
prosperity by persons incapable of or

Complicated and impracticable

Extreme oppression on public
