PARIS, March 27.-A great military
campaign against Poland IL to be opened
by the Russian Soviet Government this
spring. It was declared by NJ. Joffe. the
former Bolshevik Ambassador at Ber-
lin, at a recent meeting in wilma. ac-
cording to word received by the Polish
National Committee in Paris.
The Central Executive Committee OF
the Soviet Government. the Polish COM
mittee also has been Informed. has voted
unanimously an appropriation Of 27.000,-
900 rubles tabout s.s.o00,000) monthly
for Bolshevik propaganda In Poland.
The German authorities, according 20
news reaching the Polish Committee,
have refused to allow 500 Polish refu-
gees, mostly women and children. to land
At Danzig, on their way to Poland. The
ground taken is said to have been that
there are too many refugees already In
Danzig. The steamship was compelled
to return to Rotterdam, from where the
refugees were sent, to a Dutch concen-
tration camp.
The committee says the Polish Diet
and the Foreign Affairs Committee OF
Poland have presented a proposition for
a military alliance of Poland with the
Entente.

To this rough sketch of the situation,
may add a message sent from Ger
man headquarters by a prominent stan
officer. 1t runs:
II view our situation here as ex-
tremely dark. because we cannot get our
supplies OF munitions. and II We cannot
get munitions our men will simply run
over to the enemy, not because they are
bolshevists. but because they are anxious
to save their necks"
There Is real danger Of the German
Governments most reliable troops going
ever to Spartacanism. Terrorism is al
most as equally effective a weapon as
bribery, and the Bolsheviki use both.
! know cases in which soldiers with the
new German Volunteer Corps have been
paid. not to join the Spa rtacans, but to
remain with their comrades and at the
right moment start firing from the rear.
No body Of troops will stand long un-
der such conditions.
Bolsheviki Stay own Men.
Regarding methods employed by the
Bolsheviki to keep their officers with
the colors / may quote from the state
ment OF a Bolshevik flying officer who
came into German territory a few days
ago. This officer implored the Germans
either TO send help or at least to bomb
the headquarters Of the Russian COM
missaries. He added: Our squadron
consists of fourteen fiers. OF whom
never more than two are given a mis-
sion at time. II they fail to carry
out their mission all the others are
shot"
As far as Germany itself Is concerned
there Is danger within her borders no,
only from half crazy Spartacans. but
from the Russians In the cou-t.v. There
are:
First, nearly $500 Russian officers in
the Berlin district, mostly men who fed
from the Ukraine and have no means OF
livelihood here except as Bolshevik
agents. In which service they receive
fifty-flve marks a day.
Secondly. the number OF pussian pr,s-
oners Is large. These men have been
plundering villages. especially in Neck
lenburg.
Thirdly. there Is cheap Russian labor
available in East and West Prussia. In
these provinces Russian farm laborers
offered their services at cheap rates
they work we'll. but arrived with wallets
we'll filled with paper money. My in
formation Is that these men were almost
all Bolshevik gaents Their efforts, par
ticularly in East Prussia, have met with
considerable succese.

1t Is urged that until the amounts
OF the indemnities are known many Sc
curities will remain hidden in Germany.
Foreign business men will not give
credit to German firms for fear that
profits may be taken from them later
on by the Allied Governments.
Those Governments have to determine
whether they are going to give Ger
many free access to neutral markets,
and the view held here by leading eco
nomic personalities is that they will not.
1t Is contended that to remove the
blockade and to allow German money
and securities 70 circulate freely With
out control. and thus be lost for pur-
poses of indemnity, would be unjust TO
the Allies. 1t is held that each of the
associated Governments must determine
