Berlin, Feb. 10. (Associated Press.)
Thirty thousand Government
troops are being assembled to subdue
the Spartacides in the Ruhr indus
trial district according to reports
from Munster.
A clash between the troops and
Spartacides at Dorsten is said to have
resulted in victory for the Govern
ment forces, who lost four dead, to
twenty for the Spartacides. One hun
dred Spartacide soldiers were cap
tured.
The general strike in the Ruhr dis
trict continues to spread. in spite Of
the fact that large majority of the
miners, as shown by the votes taken
at many places, oppose the move
ment. Coal production in the region
is virtually at a standstill.
The Socialist Vorwarts and the
lJurgeois newspapers say that the
strike is a political strike instigated
by Spartacide and Independent So
cialist leaders.
Spartacides from Dusseldorf, ac-
cording to reports received here have
disarmed the police OF Muhlheim and
taken away cannon and mine threw.
ers from the Muhlheim barracks for
use against the Government troops at
Dorsten. The Spartacides at Muhl-
helm announced that the strike will
be maintained until the Government
troops are withdrawn from the Rurr
district. They saw that if food be-
comes scarce the bourgeois house
holds will be called on to give up
their stores.
They also announce their intention
of carrying the strike from the Rhine

said today at luncheon given in hi
honor by civic organization as part
of the program of the Pacific Coast
Congress for the League to Enforce

"They are citing the Constitution

vents this people from paying their
part In bringing peace and order and
happiness to ourselves and the other
peoples OF the world.
This Is not a political question
God forbid am glad President
Wilson went to Europe. because he
went bearing promise Of a League
OF Nations,
The application at this time of tho
doctrine OF avoiding entaugling ALI
ances is reactionary to the extern
OF delaying world peace one hundrer

whether the whole great plan Of tn,
League of Nations is TO be defeated
because we can't get two-thirds ma
jority OF our Senate for its ratiflca
tlon.'

Dyke, ex.Minister to the Netherlands
described the United States. He salt
