ALLIES RETIRE

Bolsheviki Pressing Americans

Russia
By n ssOcidfed Press.

ARCHANGEI,, Jan. 30.--The Boil
sheviki are pressing in a considerable
number of troops in the territory be-
tween the VoloZZa railway and the
line of the Yaza river, apparently
with the object of either surrounding
the allies column In this sector, or by
cutting through to isolate the column
to the eastward on the DZina. There
are numerous winter roads through
the swamps in the section.
An enemy force of about 1000 men
began an attack at 3.15 o'clock yes
terday morning on the British and
Russian positions west of Taresezo, at
tacking with such violence that the
Allies were obliged to evacuate the
VILLAGE of Alexizsskaya.
One OF the allied airplanes flew
over ShcnkurslS yesterday. 1t is re-
ported that the town had not been
burned, as refugees had stated. The
village OF Fhegovarsk on the Vada,
which was evacuated sever al days ago
has been occupied by enemy infan-
try and cavalry with five guns.
In the Oneida sector the allied troops
yesterday raided the village of Ter

capturing nine without losses to the

have become more serious. particular
ly in the latter city. The strike move
ment is spreading to the large indus

signs of coming disorder which may
entail the proclamation of martial
law.
The situation was discussed at q
special meeting of the cabinet, held
yesterday. while the board of trade is
also active in an effort to bring about
a settlement.
The view taken by the government
is that any governmental interference
shall be unwise and perhaps danger
Gus. The strike movements are local.
Moreover. there is infinite variety in
the various demands advanced In the
different localities. while many OF the
alleged grievances are of a trifiing
character, such as containing inter-
walls of a few minutes for lunch. etc.
1t appears to be generally believed
that the action of the strikers will

MORGAN PUT

T. A. Gillespie to Finish Today
--ReaI Future of Plant is
Still in Doubt

Today Is the last day the munitions
plant at Morgan will be under the
control of the I. A. Gillespie Loading
Company, the United States govern
ment taking over the entire plant at
midnight tonight. All of the Gillespie
company officials. who have been in
charge of the work at the plant ever
since its construction early last year,
will leave today and L. s. Army off,
GERS connected with the Ordnance
Department VIII tomorrow take COM
plete charge of operations.
Major Judson, of the Ordnance
Department, has been assigned as the
commandant of Camp Morgan. and
he will exercise full authority in the
operation of the work at the plant
Mr.. Eldridge, the T. A. Gillespie off,
cial who has been the general plant
superintendent, stated in an interview
yesterday afternoon that no formality
will be attached to the taking over Of
the plant by the government, the
Gillespie officials going out tonight
and the army officers coming in to-
morrow morning.
According to Mr. Eldredge more
soldiers will probably be brought to
the Morgan plant now that the gov
ernment has taken complete control.
Whether or not soldiers would re-
place many of the civilians now en-
ployed at the plant could not be
learned. According to the retiring
superintendent there will be no more
new construction work at the plant.
Removing Explosives
Since the Morgan explosion last
October the explosives, including
shells and INT which were stocked
there, have been gradually shipped
away, this work still being in pro-
gress. Whether the Morgan plant
will continue to make shells on a
smaller scale or whether IL VIII be-
used as an ordnance depot is not
known.
The plant. which was constructed
in record time, and emplosed several
thousand men and women, was the
largest shellloading plant in the
country and at the time of the explo-
sion 1t was just starting to turn out
fits maximum output. Immediately
after the explosion the work OF re-
building was commenced. but when
the armistice was signed the work
was throttled down. Since then the
placing of safety caps on finished
shells has occupied much of the time
at the plant.

tails which will be acceptable to the
American viewpoint.
When the supreme council of the
peace conference meets today II will
have before 1t the very plain state
ment made by President Wilson at
Wednesdays late session. SO partic-
ular was Mr.. Wilson to have an ex-
act record of what he had said that
soon after entering the meeting he
summoned one of his personal stem
ographers and had him at his side
during the session.
What he said is not to appear In
the official colleague, but II may be
stated that 1t was a very clear reaf-
firmation of the principles for which
the President had previously contend
ed In phrases which contained diplo-
matte niceties. 1t is understood he told
the members OF the supreme council
he would not be a party to a division
of Germany's colonial possessions
among the powers which now hold
them and then become a party TO
league OF nations which, at present.
would guarantee their title. There
are references that the President even
referred to a peace of loot"
The net results of the past day OF
discussion on the colonial question, In
the opinion of many Americans here,
has been to clear the atmosphere gen
orally am TO force clear definition
of aims all sides
The agreements reached by the al
lied council on the colonial question
says the Havas agency statement to-
day provides the territories which are
sufficiently civilized to give an ex-
preston of their wishes as to the form
of their government will be permitted
to set up such a government under the
authorities of the league of nations,
obtaining either national independ-
ence or living under q protectorate OF
one other OF the great powers. Arabia
and Mesopotamia are considered to be
examples of this class.
In the case of peoples insuficiently
developed for such government, the
statesmen expect the league shall Sc
cure the power most suitable TO gov
ernment under certain guarantees to
be fixed by the peace conference or
the league.
