GOVERNMENT IS MENACED
Senator Thomas Says Powerful Or.
 ganizatiOn Is Working in U. s.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Criticising meeting here yesterday, at which the Russian Soviet government was praised, Senator Thomas of Colorado, Democrat, said in the Senate today that powerful organization constant ly is at work to overthrow the Ameri- can government. The senator said member of the House was ''conspicu- ous at the meeting" but that Senate rules prohibited him from naming him.
 Representative Mason of Illinois ad- crossed the gathering, urging return Of American troops from Russia, and Representative Gordon of Ohio and Dillon of South Dakota also were present
 "INwant to warn the plain people of this country" he said, that powerful organization is always ac-. tive to overthrow the government and erect a government of anarchists, thieves and scoundrels.
 Now, in the nations capital, this monster utters its treason and coun- sells overthrow of the government"
 Albert Rhys Williams, a war corre- spondent, and Miss Louise Bryant, both of whom recently returned from Russia, were the principal speakers at yesterdays gathering.

NO CAPTURED TERRI
 TORY TO BE RET TUFsNE 9
Germany Will Be Eliminated From NCOIOnial Affairs of World Also Turkeys
 Fate.

Paris, Feb. 1.-The accord reached by the council of the great powers concerning the disposal of the Ger man colonies and occupied regions in Turkey-in-Asia is much more definite than is generally supposed, and be- sides acceptance in principle of the American plan of mandatories, it en- braces the following main features:
 The allied and associated powers are agreed that the German colonies shall not be returned to Germany, owing first to mismanagement, cruelty and the use of these colonies as submarine bases.
 The conquered regions of Armenia Syria, Mesopotamia, Palestine and Arabia shall be detached from the Turkish empire.
 Provision is made whereby the we'll being and development of backward colonial regions are regarded as the sacred trust of civilization, over
 
 supervisory care The administration or tutelage of these regions is en- trusted to the more advanced na,- tions, who will act as mandatories.
 Consider the Government.
 These mandatories are not uniform but vary according to the degree of development of the colonial region and it's approach to the stage of self government. The mapdates in Pales- tine. Syria and other portions of Fur key where well-developed civilization exists, would be comparatively light and probably recognition of the inde- pendence of these communities.
 On the other hand, colonies like those in Central Africa would require a mandatory with large powers of ad- ministration as responsible for the suppression of the slave trade, the liq- uor traffic, ammunition and arms traffic and the prevention of military authority on the part of the natives except for native police purposes.
 Other colonies and localities, such as those in German Southwest Africa and some of the South Pacific islands have such sparse and scattered popu- lations and are so separated from oth- CT communities that the laws of the mandatory country would probably prevail.
 The mandatories will report at stat ed intervals to the league of nations concerning the manner in which a colony is being administered. The foregoing outline indicates on broad lines the terms whereby it is de- clared, conflicting views were finally reconciled and common agreement was reached acceptable to all the powers.

SAYS AGRICULTURAL
 SITUATION GRAVE
Governor Appeals to Farmers Tor Increased Food and Feed Crops and Pastures-Crl-
 sis Threatened.

Little Rock, Feb. 2-That the agri- cultural situation confronting Afkan- sas for the coming year is most serious one, was the opinion expressed by Governor Brough yesterday, after he had consulted with c. w. watson, state agent of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, and F. M. Cottrell, agricuturist of the Arkansas Profitable Farming Bureau of the Lit tie Rock Board of Commerce.
 MT. Watson and MT. Cottrell told the governor that the boil weevil threatens to do more damage to cot ton next season than ever beofre in the history of the state, as a result of the mild winter, and the fact that cotton was allowed to stand in the fields so late last fall. They said that cotton men have told them that the market situation for next fall is precarious, because of the uncertain ty as to the ability of the European
 
 serious shortage of feed throughout the state, partly due to last summers drouth, and they said it is estimated that $120,O00,000 worth of feed will have been imported into the state during the year. MT. Watson said that the amount of money that is be- ing sent out of the state for feed alone threatens to consume all the profits from last years cotton crop.
 Mir. Watson and MT. Cottreil told the governor that it is highly import ant that the farmers increase their their permanent pastures sufficiently at least to supply their own uses.

ALLIED TROOPS lN RUS-
 SEA IM GRAVE DANGER
Serious Reyerses Make Archangel Situation Extremely Criti- cal-BOlsheviki
 Use Gas.

Washington, Feb 1-The situation in the Archangel district is regarded by military officers in northern Rus sia as extremely critical.
 Advices to the War Department to- day made no reference to an appeal for endorsements, but it was said here that because this was a matter for determination by the Supreme War Council at Paris, more complete report had been sent to that body, pos sibly with a request for additional support. Reports that the Bolshevik forces were using gas shells, was talk en here to mean that this equipment had been supplied through Gefman sources, despite the terms of the ar mistice, and if this was established, it was intimated that drastic action against the Germans would be taken by Marshal Foch.
 Allies Have Only 14,OCO.
 Available figures obtained by War Department officials show that the British force in the region of the North is approximately 5000, Ameri- can 4,500, French 800, loyal Rus sians under British, officers 1,2O0, and 1000 other soldiers of one of the small Ter allied countries.
 The exact disposition of these forces is not known here, TO report having been made. Army officials said that the body of troops now retreating be- fore Well-armed and reinforced Bolshe- wiki was small, being little more than an advanced post. Reports of a 40 mile retirement, however, led experts to believe that larger body was en- gagged than had been supposed. Gen eral March, chief of staff, said week ago that the number of troops in the advance south of Archangel was suf- ficiently large. to keep the situation in hand
 Use gas and high explosives by the Bolsheviki was looked upon by army men as the most disquieting fea- ture of the military reports, as they affected Americans. Taresevo, from which it was reported the Americans had, been forced to retire, is small town about 130 miles directly south of Archangel.s E

SUFFRAGE WILL BE
 SUBMITTED TO VOTE
House Adopts Proposed Amendment and Governor Will Sign This Morning Adopted
 72 to 2.

Little Rock Feb. At ten o'clock today Governor Brough will sign House Joint Resolution No T. by Rep resentative John A. Riggs of Garland, Father of Suffrage in the Arkansas General Assembly, by which propos ed amendment to the constitution will be submitted at the general election in November, 1920. The finishing touches were put on the measure yesterday in the House, when it concurred in the Senate amendment, making jury serv- ice for women optional The ''revo- lution," as someone termed it, was then read the third time and adopted by a vote of, ayes 72, noes 8. Those who voted in the negative were Messrs. Moore of Newton, Vaughan of Prairie and Stevens of Columbia There was no demonstration, and Mrs. 1T. T. Gotham was the only sujragist present to witness what all knew was to be but a formality.
 Governor Brough invites all who al e interested in subrage to be pres ent in his office at 10 a. m. today, when he will sign the resolution.
 Privilege Tax Passed.
 The House passed, by vote of 62 to 14 the bill introduced by MT. Knowlton of Pulaski, permitting cit ies tax on privileges. MT. Knowl- ton said his bill is necessary for the relief of cities that have been de- prived of ether sources of revenue, notably that from saloons. His bill originally applied only to Little Rock. then a substitute, by request, was in troduced to make it apply to cities of more than 10000 population for the benefit of Hot Springs, Pine Bluff, Helena, Fort Smith and a few other cities. However, many smaller cities also wanted the benefits of the bill, and it was then made to apply to all cities of the first and second class. It is provided that two-thirds vote of & City Council is necessary to pass an ordinance levying the tax, and that it may be referred to the people on the petition of 15 per cent of the qualified electors.
 To Yote-0 on Road Tax.
 Tho House adopted, with limited discussion, the joint resolution offered by Mir. Choate of White, proposing an amendment to the constitution provid- ing that where there shall be vote on road tax at each general biennial election, and that each township may vote any amount up to maximum of 12 mills, just as school districts are permitted to act independently in the voting of school tax. This res oiution now goes to the Senate, and the Senate has sent to the House the McFerrin resolution providing for full assessments of all property for pur- poses of taxation. There are other pending resolutions providing for con- stitutional amendments, notably those for the bond issue and for an increase in the Supreme Court, and the con- test for the third place is becoming quite interesting, since only one more amendment can be submitted under the constitutional limitations.
