Washington, March %: Reports Of
an increasing seriousness of the situa-
ton in Hungary led to an opinion ex-
pressed today by an official OF the
state department that "the time had
come for the Allied nations represent
ed at Paris to take definite and firm
stand against bolshevism." Little
news of an official nature was receiv-
ed at the state department during the
day but dispatches from Paris indi-
Gated grave apprehension was felt
there as we'll as in Washington over
the situation. Representatives of the
United States in Vienna reported to-
day that the food administration had
one or two agents in Budapest and, II
was stated, there might be other
Americans there. These advices said
there was no ill-feeling toward Amer
leans or British in Budapest, but
strong feeling Of hostility was being
manifested against the French. This, II

ton by French of the neutral zones
between Czecho Slovakia and Hun
gary, and Romania and Hungary. 1t Is
believed here that probably the French
members of the rallied mission
in Budapest have been interned, as
has been reported in news dispatches
from Vienna, but doubt was express
ed as to the inclusion Of American or
British in the internment order.
"A dispatch to the Neue Erie Presse
Of Vienna says the British-French
mission at Budapest, consisting OF
246 men, has been disarmed and that
a wireless message has been sent to
Nikolai Lenine, the Russian Bolshe-
Wiki premier, announcing that the en-
tente missions have left Budapest.
The message added: French troops
filtered by Bolsheviki, have been dis
armed by us. Mutinies have occurred
in some French regiments" The
phrase the entente nations won the
war, but lost the peace may come true
If they continue to trample underfoot
and dismember the defeated nations"
says the Neue Erie Presse. The exc
cutive committee of the workmen's s
council of German-Austria, replying
to the proclamation of the Hungarian
proletariat, says it, too, is "of the
opinion that after the collapse OF i'm
perialism in Germany and Austria
Hungary the imperialist victors are
our chief enemies. If the Paris con-
ference seeks to offer violence to en-
tire nations and violates the rights OF
self determination, it will meet with
determined resistance from the work
ing men. Unfortunately your appeal
to us to follow your example cannot
be complied with, for the entente has
cut off our supplies. We would starve
before the Russian soviets could help
us. We, therefore, are in worse po-
sition than you, as we are completely
dependent upon the entente"
- Senator o. w. Underwood, OF Ala
bama, addressing the Birmingham
Kiwanis club at Birmingham last Tues
day, predicted financial disaster and
possible renewal of warfare II the
peace treaty is too long delayed. we
are all glad that the war is over, but
we are not at peace with the world,
said the senator in part. Il do not
know how you feel, but l do know
that 1 do not sleep as we'll as would
IL peace was signed. Three powers
now have the power Of war, and con-
troll the things with which war must
be made, the United States, England
and France. Europe Is seething vol
cano and there Is no telling when 1t
will break loose. Every day we put
off the signing of the treaty OF peace
widens the chasm which the world
may be unable to bridge successfully
with the small scantling 1t has left
from the war. When we first signed
the armistice the world was war
weary and the world was ready for us
to dictate the terms of peace and end
the tragedy, but every hours delay
between the armistice and peace
brings further away from that psy-
Geological hour that struck Novem-
ber IL. Now l trust that some agree
ment between the nations for the per-
manent keeping of the peace will be
reached, but II this peace treaty is
not signed soon the volcano of war
may break loose again and the three
powers named will have to be the big
policemen, but l do not want to see
this country engaged in the role OF
policeman, if it can possibly be
avoided. If this scantling which now
bridges the ever growing chasm should
break. il may mean a national deba-
Gle and financial disaster. 1t is not
for us now to quarrel over small de-
tails but first let us have peace and
let us convert our swords into pillow
shares and return to the peaceful
walks Of life and let us do II quickly.
