tation and exclusion of undesirable aliens
would he introduced soon. If it were
true that over twenty thousand enemy
aliens were at present gathered at Rot

land as soon as peace was signed, his
present adequate powers of excluding
aliens would be used.

in Vienna. Most of the other cities gave
a large Socialist vote, including Inns
bruck and other strongholds of the cleri-

scattered a Bolshevik force of more than
100, 900. Bolshevik wal material in rail

of Staff Of the Russian Army, is the mill
tary power behind the anti Rolshevik
