GERMANS USING
BOLSHEvlK MOVEMENT
The Times says that the Germans
are making the use which was expect
ed of the bolshevik movement in
Hungary.
sThe different parties in Germany
says the newspaper, are agreed that
the events in Hungary must force the
associated powers to moderate their
demands on Germany, but they seem
at present to understand that the as
ISOLATED powers will not tolerate any
nonsence. Individual ministers are
reported to have used foolish, defiant
language to the crowd, but the quiet
transfer Of the German merchant
ships outweighs any amount OF vain
boasting."
THE business Of the conference is
to confirm the German government
in their conviction that nothing is to
be got by equivocation or intrigue
and that the detection Of Hungary will
no more induce the allies to waver in
their decisions than the carefully tim
cd ~insugrection in Egypt

London, Tuesday, March 25.-Dis-

in the house of commons, Winston

said that events during the last two

extremely disastrous to the French.
He said they had entered from the
south and had gone some distance
FROM the coast when they were con
fronted by superior forces and en-
countered hostility from the people,
The secretary pointed out that this
latter feature raj something which
must be carefully weighed, as il
showed the danger that might result
from rash and Ill considered action.
EMERSON and Nikolaiv have been
taken and Odessa is being defended by
French and Greek and Russian forces
against Bolshevik attacks" he said
The position OF the Rolshevik near
Odessa has exposed Rumania to a very
direct threat of invasion which, with
the Hungarians advancing on the other
side, has made the situation very diff
ficult."
In speaking Of General Denikine's
army the secretary said that it was
Great Britain,s policy to give its sup.
port but not to involve any British
troops. He said that General Denikine
had suffered a severe reverse while
advancing toward Noyo Tscherkask,
but by striking back toward the Cas-
plan he had successfully taken 10000
prisoners. The British retain control
OF the Caspian but there is a Bolshe-

CENTRAL POWERS MAY BE
PUNCHED FOR TREATY

Paris. Tuesday, March rs. (By The
Associated Press)--It has become
known that a serious effort Is being
made in the highest quarters to Join
together all the peace treaties with
Germany. Austria, Turkey and Bull
garia, thus making one comprehen-
sive treaty In which Germany would
be linked with the other central pow.
ers as their responsible head.
While such a step would cause some
delay, yet the American and British
leaders here feel that it would save
time in the end in completing the
work on all the peace treaties. The
inclusion OF Austria In a compre-
hensive treaty would be particularly
acceptable to Italy, which has resent
ed the conclusion of terms with Ger.
many in a document which failed to
deal with Italy's interests in Austria.
The movement for a single treaty
with all the four powers probably
grows out Of Premier Orlando's strong
opposition to such omission in the
first treaty OF clauses dealing with
Italy's interests. The plan has not
yet been finally determined upon,
but the tendency is toward its &C.
ceptance. Should the plan be adopted
It is expected that the four treaties
could be linked together and com,
