Archangel, Thursday, February 20.-The

 joy by the troops themselves, but off,

 ton are anxious to know whether other
 troops will be sent to replace them or
 whether it means the complete abandon

 closed except for ice-breakers incapable
 of carrying a large number of troops. and, according to naval advices, June will be the earliest month for the open ing of the ice floes.

LSHEv|K| DOING GREAT WORK, REED TELLS COMMITTEE Revolutionary Socialist" Declares He Is Firm Ad-
 vOcate of Revolution
 in America
By Associated prsss

Washington, February z1.-John
 Reed, . writer. who described him
 self as . strevolutionary socialist.~
 told the Senate committee investf-
 gating Iawless agitation today that
 he believed the boishevik regime
 in Russia was doing ''great work@
 and that he was . firm advocate of
 . revolution In the United States.
 He followed his wife, Louise Bryant on the stand, and like her, denied stories of atrocities related by pre- vious witnesses.
 On cross-examination, Reed could not recall that he had said last Sunday in a speech at Yonkers, N. Y. that 3,o00.- 900 rifles are in the hands of 3,0OO.oO0 Russian workmen and soon 100000 rifles will be in the hands of Ameri- can workmen to do the same thing that is being done in Russia" He also said he couldn't imagine" himself stating in another speech in New York that he had started the bolshevist move ment and soon expected that there would be something doing" in New York, Baltimore. Albany, Syracuse. Bos-
 
 ton and other cities of the east.
 Reed, who spent sometime in Rus sia, freely admitted that he was em- ployed in the international revolution ary propaganda bureau of the bol- shevik misistry of foreign affairs in Petrograd and told the committee that he expected to start an "information bureau in New York soon. He said he had discussed the matter with some

 WAS NOT SPEAK FER
 The witness said he did not speak ai the meeting in Washington theatre which was largely responsible for the present investigation because he was .'considered too disreputable. having been indicted for saying things that Senator Johnson has since said in the Senate"
 with Senator Wolcott of Delaware re- garding his beliefs in respect to law Reed declared that the will of the peo- ple would be done, if not by peace ful means then by force. He. explained however, that his advocacy of revolu- tion in the United States, meant moi necessarily the employment of force 'Unfortunateiy he added, proIounc social changes have been accomplished by the. use of force. but I never have been able to see and reason why the, could not have been accomplished oth. erwise
 The witness said in his opinion th' American government as present con stituted had never been brought to thu real test as to whether it was flexible enough to admit such great reforms as those in Russia and asserted tha he favored the natfonalization of in dustry and land in this country. Re plying to questions, he said he di' not think he had ever been affiliated with any anarchistic movement an. that in fact he was very much agains the abolition of all government Albert Rhys Williams. another writ CT, who spoke at the Washington thea Ire meeting. will appear before the com mittee tomorrow.

STILL WITHOUT CONVOY

On Board the U. S. S. George Wash ton. Wednesday, February 19--tRy Wireless to the Associated Press)--The steamship George Washington, on which President Wilson is returning to the United States, is today proceed ing over the waters of the mid d-Atlan- tic ocean entirely without escort, which was driven off by the heavy weather during the night
 The accompanying torpedo boat de- stroyers shipped such heavy seas and were having such a bad time in wealth ering the seas that they were ordered to slow down and fall behind.
 The giant battleship New Mexico. which was making her first long run. was unable to keep up the pace, be- cause of the stiffness of her machinery. and when it became apparent that the George Washington was being he'd back by her guard ships, President Wilson expressed the wish that his steamer should proceed alone. if nec- essary.
 Therefore, the New Mexico also dropped out of line and when day broke neither the battleship convoy nor eith- CT of the destroycrs was in sight. The only other vessel to be seen on the heaving sea was four-ma stcd schooner which was running before the wind with all sails down.
 The George Washington continued today to behave excellently It became evident. however. that the strong winds and heavy seas were going to delay the ship and interfere with the Presidents Boston pro gramme Therefore a new course was laid. further north than was originally planned. which will cut off about 20p miles of the journey and make it vir- tually certain that the President will land in Boston on Monday. if there is no further delay
 President Wilson did some work with his correspondence today. He also in- spected the crew of the ship, accom- panied by Captain McCauley.

GERMANS DEPLORE ACT

London, February 21.--The attack on Premier Clemenceau is regarded by the German press as crime the more regret ta ble as being likely to strengthen senti- ment against Germany in France, accord ing to a German wireless message re- ceived here today. The North German Gazette says:
 ''The Paris criminal has done no serv- ice to the cause of peace. Clemenceau's s enmity to the German people is no req son for not branding the attempt on his life as an execrable crime.
 "The foolishness of the attempt is only mitigated by the fact that it was unsuc- cessful"
 Vorwaerts greatly regrets the attempt against M. Clemenceau by which the national feeling in France will be further ircited."
