BY United Press:
PARIS. April 3.--The Russian So
Wet government is not asking for

ers. it was learned from autorita-
tive sources today The proposition
recently submitted to the peace con

TO end the numerous little wars that

tory.
Lift the blockade so as to per
nit us to get food and materials.
Then we will make good and
on CAN recognize us-if YOU care
to-"
The Russians it is understood, are
also willing to make a separate
peace with the associated powers,
that is without including the new
Hungarian soviet government in the
pact. BY making peace with the Rus
slams is naturally meant withdrawal
OF all allied forces from Russia and
cessation of participation in such
campaigns as that in the Odessa
district
Agrees to End Fight
Lenine agrees 10 cease lighting,
it is declared. and stop propaganda
work in other countries. applying
his governmental machinery to
purely national affairs. in which ne
expects to show it is possible for a
system to succeed in which a rich
man cannot get anything merely be-
cause he is rich.
The Russians attitude is that
such military operations as they are
now carrying on are in self-defense.
1t is known the peace conference is
giving extensive consideration to the
latest reports from Russia and is
becoming more impressed with ac-
cumulation of evidence that violence
and bloodshed are not stopping boil
shevism.

in reports reaching here from Cop

which if Mr.. Wilson didn't put over

"Ain't I telling you that I don't
want TO knock him." Abe declared
"All am saying is that if such a
