WILSON IN WEST
is EXPLAINING
PEACE TREATY
SPEAKS TONIGHT IN ST. LOUIS
COLISEUM
AVOID ANY DEBATE
President Making No Direct
Reference to Political
Situations in States.

st. Louis, Sept 5.-President Viii
son today reached the real beginning
of his western speaking trip in the in.
terest of the peace treaty, when he
arrived here at fourtwenty this morn.
ing, having sounded the key note of
his appeal in his speeches yesterday
at Columbus and Indianapolis.
He planned to sleep late and then
keep most Of the day free. Early in
the afternoon he planned to attend a
luncheon, where he was exjected to
make a brief speech and in the even
ing he was to speak in the coliseum.
In Missouri the President has found
the situation as regards ratification
without an exact parallel in any 9th
er state. In the treaty ratifying body
at Washington the state is represent
ed by Senator Reed, the only Demo
cratic senator who has taken def
mite stand for the rejection of the
treaty and Spencer, one of the Re-
publican senators who declared them
selves generally friendly to it.
In addition to Inc address here to-
night the President is to make a
speech in Kansas City tomorrow. Mem
bers of the Presidents party, however.
do not expect him to make any di-
rect reference to the political fea-
tutres of the situation in the state.
In his keynote addresses yesterday
the President made plain his intention
to take up the various features of the
treaty in an explanatory way, during
the trip and refrain from engaging in
debate about the issues raised in pub
lie discussion of the treaty hereto
fore.

OUTBREAK IN TURKEY

British Naval Commander
Sends Disquieting NetDs.

LONDON, April 1.-THE situation in
Turkey is causing grave anxiety. In
ternal disorder is rife. according to re-
ports from Admiral Webb, r. N, at Con-
stantinople II is feared there will
shortly be outbreaks and massa cres of
the Armenian population on a large
scale.
The situation at Smyrna where the
Turks and Greeks are ready to spring
at each others throats, is typical OF the
situation throughout Turkey. Bands of
brigands are dominating the country,
even within a few miles of CONSTANT
nople. and committing atrocious mur-
cors.
The Committee OF Union and Progress,
the Young Turk organization. which was
driven from power in Constantinople as
result OF allied victory, is reported to
be secretly conducting an energetic re-
orga nization movement.
Further disorders are feared in Egypt.
4 division of British troops Is on the
way from Dobrudja to reinforce the
troops of Major-Gen. Allenby. the Spe-
cial High Commissioner to Egypt, and
to relieve a large number OF Australian
and New Zealand soldiers who will re-
turn home.

LONDON, April 17.-Taking up the
gage thrown down by Premier Lloyd
George the conservative elements Of
England declare they will force the
Premier to make good on every state
ment he made in the House Of Com
mons yesterday or force him out Of
the Premiership. They accept his
plan to place the peace terms along
side his pledges. and If they do not
agree in every detail Lloyd George
must go to the people for reelection.
On the other side Of the fence all
signs point to the heartiest backing
for the Premier by a large major
ity of the Commoners and the gen.
eral public, who were highly i'm
pressed apparently by his reiterations
to make good on his pledges and are
content to allow the peacemakers to
keep the terms silent until they are
shown to Germany.
There seems to be a feeling in the
public mind that personal political quar-
rels are out Of place just now, and the
confidence with which the Premier in
vited comparison between the peace
treaty and his promises is looked upon
as significant and as probably fore
casting the adoption OF the British plan
Of settlement with Germany.
General opinion to-day was that the
Premiers political enemies were so badly
beaten that they cannot possibly force
a general election. BY openly denounc-
ing Lord Northcliffe the Premier gained
tremendous advantage. because the
forthcoming criticisms OF him will now
be read with scepticism by all classes,
who now realize that the Premier is
openly at war with Northcliffe's news
papers. This view is held by the old
politicians. who have watched the Pre-
mier's successful engagements with other
sections OF the press in the past, en-
counters in which he was successful in
practically every instance.
However the now faces the greatest
combination OF newspapers in the world.
The MoH has accepted his challenge and
intends to continue the wordy battle.
The representatives OF both the Mol
and the Times expressed nothing but
disdain for the Premlers methods and
both confidently predict a collapse OF
the coalition soon after the peace set
tlement.
Intense interest surrounds every move
and already some wagers have been
made that Northcliffe will cause Lloyd
Georges downfall with the same facility
with which he broke the Asquith Gov
ernment. In the meantime, with Par
lament adjourned, nearly every men,
Der left the city for the Easter holiday
along with a good portion OF the city's
population. which, despite the difficulty
OF travelling, are seeking the country
and the seaside in vast numbers.
The Premier's departure for Paris was
marked by demonstration of the holi,
day makers.

PARIS. April 1.-THE second Spar
tacide coup in Munich. resulting in the
recovery Of the city by the Soviets,
appears to have given a new lease Of
life to the Bolshevists, and to have
entrenched them in a stronger posi-
ton than ever, and one from which
they are not likely to be budged for
some time. Reports to Paris indicate
that the Radicals have made gains in
all parts Of Bavaria and that they are
absolute masters in Munich.
Two causes are assigned for the
Boishevist success in Bavaria. First,
the blunders Of Premier Hoffman, and
the cocksureness Of his Government
that 1t would overthrow the Soviets
with the aid Of Noske's troops from
Berlin. The summoning OF these
troops rallied all the -PrussiRn
elements, who preferred, apparently.
the temporary anarchy to an invasion
by Prussian troops.
Inc second cause was the detecuOn
of the local Government forces, who
went over in a body to the Red
Guard.
While there was severe street fight
ing. in which $50 were killed. there was
no trace Of an organized counter move
ment against the Reds, who are now
fast in the saddle and gaining adherents
daily through the sheer preponderance
Of machine guns on their side. With
Munich in the throes Of a strike all idle
workers are being armed. As a result
the Spartacides have amassed formi-
dable army and are now quite ready to
accept the challenge from Noske's troops.
Meanwhile the reign of terror Is in
full swing, with soap box orators ha-
ranguing the unemployed and exhorting
them to burn and pillase wherever they
encounter resistaDe. Russian Bolshe-
visit agents seem to have been behind
the new revolt Axel Rodlewyn, the
Russian Red agent, seems to have gone
to Munich with a plan to feed Soviet
Bavaria. He proposes negotiations witt,
Italy and Switzerland to obtain food
his plan being to abandon to Italy the
exploita ton of Bavsrian forests.
