Uncle Harry Talks About
Germany's Baltic Invasion

Won der Golilz wouldn't gof'
The Germans Remain.
Exactly" said Uncle Harry. so The
Supreme Council appealed 10 Berlin
and the German Government ordered
General Won der Golliz 10 bring his
troops home. The latter promised TO
do his utmost. but said that his troops
did not seem disposed 10 leave the oc-
cupled territories.
IAN excange Of notes. lasting six
weeks, followed between the German
Government and the Allies Supreme
Council, the Germans always cour-
te0usly pleading their inability 10 en-
force the orders Of the Peace Confer
enoe. Finally Germany suggested that
Allied commissioners be appointed TO
20 10 the Baltic and try 10 Oust Won
der Goliz themselves, which the Allies
decided 10 do, thus losing more time
in handling Of a situation that was
rapidly growing worse.
For, according 90 reports. Won der
GOltz's troops have been pushing ahead
steadily. gathering In all the Lettish
property they can seize. anneXing their
ports, and committing all sorts OF eX-
cesses and outrages on the defensless
people.
"The Allies charge" continued Uncle
Harry, that the Germans are trying,
with Won der Gollz's army, 10 obtain
control Of the principal cities in the
Baltic region from which they could
Evening journal., 1919-11-01

What Is all this about a German
army under General Won der Goltz
operating in the Baltic provinces Of
Old Russia. Uncle Harry" asked Jimmy
Il shouldn't think that the Allies
Supreme Council OF Paris would look
very kindly on that sold Joe.
"They haven't been looking kindly
on It. TO say the least" replied Uncle
Harry, lin fact they have objected
even TO The extent Of threatening TO
cut or all loans and supplies OF raw
materials from Germany unless the
German Government succeeds In com
pelling Won der Goliz 10 withdraw his
army from Russia
But how did a German army get
into the Baltic provinces. Uncle
Harry?" asked Joe. Il thought That
the terms Of the armistice provided
that all German troops al that time In
any territory which, before the war,
belonged 30 Russia. Roumania or Tur-
key, should withdraw within the from
tiers Of Germany2'
Il see that your memory Is good,
replied Uuncle Harry, "for that is eX-
acily what the admistice provided for.
But the Peace Conference at Paris,
modified this provision Of the armis-
tice and allowed the German troops TO
remain in the Baltic provinces for the
purpose Of helping TO prevent the ar
mics OF Soviet Russia from Overrun-
ming the new states Of EsihOnia, Larvia
and Lilhuanla.
"The German troops were commend
ed by the Allies 10 abstain from all
seizure with view 20 obtaining sup
plies for Germany or from interfering
in any way with the provisional gov
ernments Of the three states l have
mentioned.
"The Peace Conference evidently
thought continued Uncle Harry, that
leaving the Germans in the Baltic
provinces would be a cheap way Of
checkmating the Russian Soviet forces
and had no thought that Germany.
torn by war and completely defeated,
would attempt any asgressions IN de
flance OF the Allies orders"
And interrupted Helen, "I suppose
that when the Allies finally thought
that the time had come for the German
troops TO evacuate. they found that
