Among his minimum demands Erz-

France, including Calais. Dunkirk and
Boulogne. Normandy must be a Ger

Herger to discuss at the moment the
question as to whether Belgium should

Empire as federated State. Germany
did not desire any large annexation of
French territory, but that part adjoin-
ing Belgium was indispensable TO Ger
man purposes and safety, as was French
Lorraine, which Germany must have be-
cause of its ore fields. The ore fields
made the seizure of French Lorraine
absolutely tustifiable, as Erzberger saw
it. lie wrote that he would like to see

Also he suggested that France be
compelled to dismantle all border forts

constantly consult Austria-Hungary.

BOLSHEVIk FORCES
PREPARE FOR DRIVE
Getting Ready for Big Spring
Offensive in North.

LONDON, April 12.-Thcre is incrcas-
ing evidence that the Bolshevists are
preparing for a big spring offensive in
the north of Russia. They are using
every means to create disaffection in
the territory occupied by the Allies, and
lately 1t has been learned that a plot
to cause an uprising in Murmansk was
organized. Many secret meetings were
held. guns were distributed and the
people everywhere urged to join in the
movement against the Allies.
Posters were put up in the towns
calling on the inhabitants to murder
the authorities and transfer their al
legiance to Lenine. Fortunately the plot
was discovered in time by the Allies.
who threw a Gordon of troops around
the town and arrested all suspected per-
sons.
A great deal OF work is being done
by the Bolshevists in the rear of their
present positions. They are making
roads and in other ways preparing for
the coming offensive. Troops have been
transferred from the south to the north
ern front.
THE SUN learns that the American
Red Cross in north Russia Is doing eX-
cellent work and helping greatly to pre-
serve the morale of the people by dis
tributing food. Even in the smallest

on Archangel Front, Says
Gen. March.
ONE COMPANY INVOLVED
Effort Is Being Made to Get

to U s. Troops.
ONE COMPANY INVOLVED
Special Despafch 70 Tnn srN.


WASHINGTON, April 12.-Bolshevik
propaganda was responsible for the
mutiny of American troops on the Arch
angel front, according to Gen. March,
Chief OF STAFF. Company of the 339th
Infantry was identified to-day as the
unit which refused to return to the
front line trenches.
1T is worthy to note" Gen. March
said, that the questions that were put
10 the officers by the men were identi-
cal with those that the Bolsheviki propa-
ganda leaflets advised them to put to
them
In response TO inquiries Gen. March
said II have not seen this leafiet. but
am very anxious to get it. This is a
very striking thing. 1 have had long
call ever having seen American soldiers
who did not want to get into a fight.
They always said, Lead me to it, and
went to IT. 1t is a very important thing.
We want to get hold OF that Bolshevils
pamphlet and find out Just what they
are UP to-"
would there be any difficulty in get
ting our troops from Archangel to Muir
mansk to get them out?" Gen. March
was asked.
IT do not think that question presents
any serious difficulties" he replied.
''rhey have constant communication by
land and water between these two
points,
Asked IL the situation of the Amer
lean troops in Archangel was serious
Gen. March said:
"Of course the situation of these
small detachments Is not known. even
TO us here. They sometimes change over
hight. and 1t takes about a week for
things to get through. but now that
they have the railway straight through
to the front the questions of supply and
reinforcement are all solved. There
should be no trouble about 1t now"
Unofficial advices say that the Ameri-
can cruisers Galveston and Chester have
arrived at Murmansk, and this is ex-
pected to relieve the situation. Brig
Gen. w. p. Richardson, who Is to as
sumo command Of the American forces
at Archangel. and two companies OF
American railway engineers were aboard
the cruisers. The reason for sending
the additional railway engineers, accord
ing to a recent explanation by Secretary
Baker. was to keep open the railroad
from Murmansk south TO a point near
the White Sea. The British have re-
garded this as essential In order to as
sist the movement of supplies or reen-
forcements.
There is still uncertainty as 10 wnen
the American forces at Archangel can
he withdrawn. Officials here explain
that this Is a matter in which the ma
tions associated with the United States
must have n voice. British reinforce
ments are said 10 be on the way to
Archangel. The American gunboat
yankton is now on duty IN these waters
and there is talk of sending other naval
craft

ARcHANGEL. Feb. 10 Correspondence
That the Bolsheviki are the world s
best propagandists was demonstrated
during the long, cold nights that occur
in this region.
Down ON the line of the highway TO
Petrograd, along which are the graves
OF the Americans who have fallen and
where Yankees had been fighting for
months around little five house village
called Kadish, the Bolshevik orators
showed how expert they were in spread
ing their views. Generally they talked
in Russian, their speeches being trans
lated by Interpreters in the American
ranks. Occasionally they sent to Pc
trograd and got some eX-American I'M
migrant to give lecture in English on
the reasons for Bolshevlsm to a more or
less interested audience OF doughboys on
the other side of No Mans Land.
For a long time when our lines on the
Kadish sector were separated from the
Rolsheviki only by a seventy-hve yard

terday some of the Kaiser's horses were
sold at Potsdam.
To-day a motley throng filled the
royal stables In Berlin, some coming out
of curiosity to see the past glories OF the
fallen house, others to bid in an effort
to get cheaply some beautiful or historic
turnout in the shape Of carriage or auto
mobile.
The Hohenzollern royal equipages are
lined with blue or green silk. Others for
court use have fine cloth. The Empress
Victoria's car and carriages were deco
rated in white and silver; that OF the
Kaiser in blue and silver. Landaulets,

STANISLAU, West Ukraine, April
3O-"There is no disorder and not
bit of Bolshevism among u.s." Prem
ier Isidor Holubowitz of the Ukraine
told the correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press the other day. Only re-
Gently we expelled the agitators from
Moscow who were disguised as men,
bers of the Red Cross. We are very
anxious to have an Allied Mission
visit us and see the facts with their
own eyes.
"Thus far The Associated Press
correspondent IS the first foreign
journalist to be sent among us. We
want the Americans to know US as a
people who demand their rights and
are willing to die for them. We are
just PLAN, common people without
any aristocratic frills.
"We believe that President Wilson's
ethnology plan is the only possible
settlement of all these disputes. We
are willing to abide by the fair div
ision by unprecedented persons after
they are properly acquainted with the
subject"
Premier Holubowitz had been dis
cusslng Win TIE A soclated Press
correspondent the Lstlure of the ALL
ed Mission to compose the differences
between the Polea and the Ukrain-
ians over the Lemoerg oil region
which has been one cause of the fight
ing over the possession Of the city
of Lemberg. He pointed out that
the Ukrainians declared to accede to
the request of the Allied Mission to
stop fighting, because they believed
the commissioners were disposed to
favor the Poles.
AS at present organized there are
two Ukraines," resumed the Premier.
One of these is composed Of 5,OOo,-
600 Ukrainians in East Galicia; the
other of upward to 30,OOO,OO0 in the
Ukraina provinces of Old Russia of
which Kew is the capital. On Janu-
ary 3 we proclaimed a union of the
two Ukraines and our present rela-
tion is that of federated states. At
the head is a directorate of five of
which one, General Petlura, is our
representative; while four other per-
sons represent the greater Ukraine on
the directorate.
"Our relations now are largely a
matter of exchange of commodities
Greater Ukraine furnishes us with
sugar, wheat, leather and money
Nominaly General Grekow is at the
head of the army, though ours is sep
arately commended.
For the moment we are fighting
the Poles while the other are fight
ing the Bolsheviki who are in posses
sion of kiev. However, there ar
among our troops many Cossack
from Poltava and elsewhere. We ar
absolutely of the same race as tn
Kiev Ukraines, speak the same Ian
guage and have the same customs
The only difference is in the matte
of religion. We are largely Roma
Catholics while the people of Create
Ukraine are orthodox. However, eV
cry religion is free among US"

Premier Orlando's government and

the view, however, is that the return
of the Italian delegation is not cX-
