SENATOR BORAH
 AGAIN ATTACKS
 LEAGUE PLANS
Declares People Should De
 eide Before Adoption.
WILL MEAN END OF
 MONROE DOCTRINE
Galleries tppiaud And Representa-. lives Congratulate
 Speaker.

Washington, Feb. 21.-Criticising the league of nations as 'the most , radical departure" from President Washington's policies and as spelling the end of the Monroe Doctrine, Sena- tor Borah, of Idaho, republican mem- Der of the foreign relations commit tee, declared today in the Senate that before the plan was adopted the Amer ican people should be allowed to give a verdict on it.
 The Idaho senator, who recently de- clined President Wilson's invitation to a White House conference next Wednesday to discuss the league con- stitution, insisted that the United States should steadfastly cling to the Americanism as established by the fathers and as recently defined by former President Roosevelt, and in the course of his address, he charged former President Taft with making misleading statements about the effect of the leagues plan on American poli- cies.
 Galleries Applaud. When Senator Borah concluded, af- ter speaking about an hour, an un- usual demonstration occurred. While crowded galleries applauded, senators and visiting representatives crowded around the senator seeking to con- graduate him. Among the senators were several democrats, including Thomas, of Colorado, Gore, of Okla homa, Smith, of Georgia, and Varda- man of Mississippi. The demonstra- tion continued for five minutes, while Senate business was completely sus- pended.
 Before MT. Borah spoke, Senator Sherman, of Illinois, republican, intro- duced resolution, which went over for future discussion, proposing that the senate request President Wilson not to discuss the league until after he confers with the senate, the co-or- dinate treaty-making branch, and to "preserve an impartial and unbiased mind," on the subject. The resolution, which Senator Sherman plans to dis cuss soon, recites that comment on the league by the president before he confers with the senate would be "unwise, undiplomatic, and calculat- ed to promote discord" with the CO., ordinate body.
 Reed to Continue.
 Tomorrow, the attack on the league in the Senate is to be continued with Senator Reed, of Missouri, democrat, speaking. Senator Hitchcock, chair man of the foreign relations commit tee, and Senator Lewis, of Illinois, democratic whip, are reported plan ming addresses in support of the league early next week.
 Senator Borah said he made his speech today especially because of what he termed misleading state- ments of former President Taft. He vigorously disagreed with Mir. Taft assertions that the league does not conflict with the Monroe doctrine, or Washington's injunctio nagainst en- tang!ing European alliances.

RUSSIANS RESENT
 TENDENCY TO
 BEL|TTLE WORK
Claim Troops Have Done Splendid Work Against
 Bolshevism.

Paris, Jan. 25.--(Corresponden
 of the Assocated Press. )-Members
 of tine Russian committee in Paris de- plore the tendency of some newspa-
 pers in the allied countries to belit- tie the actual work of Russians in Russia to overthrow the Soviet gov
 ernment headed by Lenine and rot zky. Prince Lvoff and his associates
 on the committee point to the thou- sands of Russian officers and soldiers
 executed by Soviet order as proof of
 the activity of Russians within BOlshe-
 wiki territory against the Soviet dic- tators
 Tn conversation with corre- spondent of the Associated Press, Dr.,
 Boris A. Bakhmeteff. the Russian minister to the United States, assert ed that only small part of the for mer Russian empire actually is url- der Bolsheviki control and that the Russian troops predominate in the
 army that has driven the Red forces out of Siberia and are threatening So- viet authority from north and south Russia.
 Opposed Bolsheviki. 1 Boris SavinkOff, who YVES minis ter of war under the Kerensky regime. who recently arrived in Paris. is typ
 ical of many Russian leaders who have been in Russia striving for the Nre- storation of a more sane order. Sa-
 vinkoff, like many other fearless op- ponents of the Blshevilsi, has been constantly in Bolsheviki territory for 1 the past year. He planned the cap ture of Yaraslov last July, move l ment which threatened the overthrow l of the Moscow government for time
 and was put down by tie Bolsheviki at great cost life and supplies. Although the BOlsheviki put great price on SavinkOff's head, he man. aged to escape them through various disguises and subterfuges and left 1 Russia by way of Siberia. coming from Vladivostok to France directly by sea- His activities extended into l nearly every section of Russia and
 he had many narrow escapes. Of all the Social RevOlutionists who have
 been pitted against the Bolsheviki rev gime SavinkOff is said to be the most feared by Lenine and TrOtzky. He l figured prominently as one of the most dreaded terrorists under the imperial regime.
 Marie Spiridonova and scores of oth- CT members of -Bolsheviki fac- tions has done heroic work within the
 last nine months which resulted in insurrections against the Bolsheviki. l SO tie members of the Russian com
 mittee say. but the Bolsheviki have controlled the Russian news so thor oughly that tho outside world has knowwn cnly the nvements which assumed big proportions in districts within telegraphic reach of foreign newspapers.

Was Radical Socialist.

Kurt Eisner, who siezed the reins of government in Bavaria after the deposition of the royal family early in November, was socialist of the more radical type and recent reports from Munich have been that he was heading Spartacan movement against the moderate and conserva- tive factions in Bavaria.
 The Arco Valley family has been prominent in Bavaria and Germany for years, a count of that name hay ing died at Rio Janerio in 1909 while German minister to Brazil.
 Eisner, Jew, was born in Galicla and at one time was editor-in-chlef of the Vorwaerts of Berlin.
 Fisner always had been opposed to the German majority socialists and since his rise to power in Bavaria had reneatedly attacked President Ebert and his colleagues. He even went SC far late in November as to sever re- lations with the Berlin government and there always has been some nnestion whether Bavaria, if Eisner could keep control, would join the German republic. Eisner was not a delegate to the German national as- sembfy. having been defeated by an overwhelming vote in the elections.

REED DECLARES
 B0LSHEV|K| DO
 4 GREAT WORK
Upholds Activities Of Re
 gime In Russia.
FIRM ADVOCATE OF
 REVOLUTION IN U. s.
Denies Statement That He Started Movement In
 Russia.

Washington, Feb 2l-John Reed, a writer who described himself as . revolutionary Socialist" told the sen ate committee Investigating lawless agitation today that he believed the Bolsheviki regime in Russia was do- ing great work" and that he was a firm advocate of a revolution in the United States. He followed his wife Louise Bryant. on the stand, and like her, denied stories of atrocities re- lated by previous witnesses.
 On cross examination Reed could not recall that he said last Sunday
 in a speech at Yonkers, N Y., that three million rifles arc in the hands
 of three million Russian worlmen and soon three million rifles will be
 in the hands of American workmen to
 do the same thing that is being done
 in Russia"
 He also said he could not imagine
 himself stating in another speech in New York that he had started the Bolshevist movement and soon ex- pected that there would be some thing doing" in New York, Boston
 and other cities in the East. Employed by Bureau. Reed, who spent some time in Rus. sia, freely admitted that he was em. ployed in the international revolution 1 ary propaganda bureau of the Bolshe. vist ministry of foreign affairs i Petrograd and told the committee that
 he expected to start an Information bureau in New York soon. He sail he had discussed the matter with some persons there, and added: There are some wealthy women in New York who have nothing else tc
 do with their money"
 The witness said he did not speak at the meeting in Washington the
 atre which was largely responsible
 for the present investigation because
 he was considered too disreputablo
 having been indicted for saying things
 that Senator Johnson has since said in the senate"
 Advocates Force. In the course of long discussion
 with Senator Wolcott of Delaware re-
 garding his beliefs in respect to law Reed declared that the will of the
 people would be done if not by peace full means, then by force. He ex- plained, however, that his advocacy of revolution in the United States meant not necessarily the employment of force.
 The witness said in his opinion the American government as at pres ent constituted, had never brough' ent constituted, had never been
 brought to the real test as to whether it was flexible enough 70 admit such great reforms" as those in Russia and asserted he favored the interna' tionalization of industry and land in this country.
