Four detectives, members of Police

Harding Yarns Peace
Delay Aids BoIsheuiki

NTASHINGTON, April 2.-Sen-
w ator Harding, of Ohio, Re-
publican, in q statement tonight
urged the necessity for a prompt
peace settlement, declaring it was
impossible longer to ignore the
serious concern Of our people over
delayed peace"
"The delay and the drift have
carried us apparently to a recog-
milton of the Bolshevist destroy
ers in Russia" Senator Harding
stated. mot only is Bolshevist
destructivenes to be countenanced
in fallen Russia, but the world will
awaken pretty soon to the fact
that Germany is dominant there,
and has expanded infinitely more
through revolution and delay than
it was expected to accomplish by
force of arms"
Senator Harding declared: "The
original draft is doomed here if
not buried at Paris" he said. at
is regrettable that we know so
little. In the face of the solemn
pledge of open covenants openly
arrived at l doubt if we have any
serious proposal for a league with

PARIS, April 2.-It is impossible to
disguise the terrible anxiety to which
the whole of the French people are
prey in this the final week for the
discussion of the treaty of peace The
press of the country has been unani-
nous in setting forth conditions neces-
sary to save France, and one does not
have to read between the lines to know
that the people fear that they are to
be ground between the two Anglo
Saxon millstones.

Formerly the German naval power had

the United States. While serious

Baron Mankino Says Asiatics
Could Not Be Happy in
a League That Imposed
Racial Discrimination
Accepts Roots Plan
Envoy Declares Nation Is
Not Insisting OH Right of
Its Labor to Enter u. S.

PARIS, April . (By The Associated
Press) No Asiatic nation could be
happy in a league Of nations in which
sharp racial discrimination is main
tanned, Baron Maxine, head of the Jap
ference, declared in statement to The
Associated Press o-day on the position
of Japan.
"We are not too proud to fight" the
baron said, "but we are too proud to
accept a place of admitted inferority
in dealing with one or more associate
nations. We want nothing but simple
justice"
Japan is glad to join q league of ma
tions to maintain peace and order, he
said, and added that Japan doeu not
wish to force her laborers as imm-
grants on any associate countries, and
recognizes that this question is one for
each nation to deal with itself.
Insists on Equality
Japan feels that it is entitled to q
frank and open admission by the Allies
that the principle Of equity and justice
is fundamental tenet Of the league Of
nations, the baron continued. Japan
sees difficulties in the way Of perma
nent and successful operation Of the
league, the baron asserted, unless the
contracting parties enter it with mu-
tual respect.
"You ask me for plain and frank
statement Of the position of Japan
Well, | am tempted to ask you ques-

Asks That Aldermen Pass a
Law to Prevent Aliens

vistic Propaganda Here

If Municipal Measures Can.
not Stop Evil, He Urges
a Petition to Legislature

Mayor Hylan yesterday asked Robert
l.. Moran, President Of the Board of
Aldermen, to present to the board an
ordinance which would "prevent the
holding of meetings in this city whose
proceedings are conducted in foreign
language for the abuse of our govern
ment, or by or under the auspices of
any person or persons who are not
citizens of the United States"
The immediate enactment of legisla-
ton to stamp out whatever of Boil
shevism is developing in New York City
is the end sought by the Mayor. Should
it be found that municipal legislation
will not serve the purpose, the Mayor
stated, the petitioning Of the State
Legislature to provide the necessary
laws should be resorted TO.
Aliens Abuse Hospitality
The Mayors letter to Mr.. Moran fol-
lows:
"We have all noticed lately with
amazement and Indignation the abuse
of our country's hospitality by aliens
who want no country and love no
country They are the wild, crazy peo-
pie who in every land deluding them
selves and others that they are the
apostles of liberty, preach murder and
destruction as a quick remedy for all
the economic shortcomings of the hu-
man race
"They come to our shores, not to be
law abiding citizens striving for the
betterment Of social conditions in q
humane way, but as the advance agents
of anarchy to try to inoculate thought
less men and women with the poison
Gus virus that is destroying Russia and
setting it back to the savagery of a
thousand years ago.
at is our duty to take notice of
these fanatics and to make them be-
have themselves while they are within
our country and under the prote ction
of our flag.
Il suggest, therefore, that you have
prepared and submitted to the Board
of Aldermen for their approval an or
dinancc that will operate to prevent
the holding of meetings in this city
whose proceedings are conducted in a
foreign language for the abuse Of our
government or by or under the au-
spices of any person or persons who
are not citizens of the United States.

A France Left at
The Mercy of Germany

The result is patent. Germany may
querors will now offer her, 80 amended
as to make her payment small, but the
burden of war will be thrown upon
France, and the dream that all of US
had once, that the smaller peoples OF
Europe would be raised to indepen-
dence, goes by the board.
We have, in effect, surrendered East
crn Europe to Bolshevism and are about
to leave France at the mercy of Ger
many.
We have amended our principle Of
the right of the small peoNe to exist
cnce, so that it. now reads that it is q
mistake to take from the large state
and give to the smaller state, because
the smaller state cannot defend itself
and we have no desire to defend Il.
Thus amended, the doctrine of the
league of nations becomes tho German
gospel of force.
There is left, then, only one thing
a patchcd-up peace.
VIC nio trying now, on the one
hand, to Dlscate the German, and on
the other to please the Bolshevist,
We are sacrificing France in the
West 20 the Germans.
We are abandoning the smaller peo-
pies of Eastern Europe to the Boil
shcviki now and to the Germans here
after.
When patchedur peace is signed
we shall have Europe as full of wrongs
and injustices as 1t was before 1914,

Seek Lenine's Overthrow

The strike called by the Mensheviki
and Social Revolutionists against the
Bolsheviki in Petrograd is the culmina-
tion of a movement that has been
under way for many months among the
organized workers of Russia to over
throw the Lenine government by para
lying the industries and transport Of
the country. There have been sporadic
strikes in many cities of Russia
against the Bolshevik regime. but these
were either starved to death or sup
pressed by force.
No Peace With Mensheviki
The official admission by the Boshe-
wiki that the strike is in progress also
offers q strong denial of the reports
being spread by Bolshevik propa-
gandists in the United States to the
effect that the MensAeviki, who form
the moderate wing of the Russian So
cal Democracy, and the Social Revolu-
tionists had concluded peace with the
Bolshevlki and called upon the people
to support them.
What they have done. according to
the most reliable information received
in America and British press circles,
is to proclaim their opposition to Ad-
miral Koichak's regime, which they
regard as a forerunner of an attempt
to reestablish the monarchy in Russia.
The progress of the struggle of the
revolutionary democracy Of Russia
against the militarist oigarchy of Le-
nine and Trotzky is similar to the
struggle of revolutionary Russia
against the old Czarist regime The
struggle against Czarism was also car
ried on in an atmosphere of police
repression and against overwhelming
odds in the shape Of military power
and an organized gendarnferie that
showed no mercy to the opponents of
Czarsm.

tons is dead. All chance of real set
tlement of European problems is at an
end A desperate effort is being made
to get together patchedup peace
within the next ten days which shall at
least put an end to unrest and economic
paralysis in the world
The collapse of the league of nations
is the result of the panic following the
arrival of the Bolsheviki at Budapest.
Having had no policy toward Bolshev
ism, the Paris conference suddenly
awoke from its dreams of reordering
the world to a realization of the fact
that two-thirds of the population of
Europe would not in any case subscribe
to the league Of nations, and that the
league of nations, if it were to be
anything, would have to be an alliance
against Bolshevism, an alliance which
called for active operations.
In this situation the Paris confer
ence. which for three months had con-
centrated most Of its attention upon
the draft Of the covenant of the league
of nations, was suddenly informed that
Germany would sign no treaty which
recognized the right of the small ma
tionalit;es to existence at her expense
and that unless the Allies prepared TO
enforce their demands upon German
and Bolshevst alike, the doctrines
themselves had no value and no weight.
The Doom of Polish
Hopes for Liberty
In the panic which resulted, the con-
ference at Paris gave up the just de-
cision that the Poles should have Dan
zig and an outlet on the Baltic. By
this course it doomed the Poles to
Bolshevists, and put an end forever to
Polish hopes of real independence.
The conference had brought the Boil
shevists to Budapest by recognizing the
rights Of the Rumanians, and it now
condemned the Poles to Bolshevism by
denying Polish rights.
Almost at the same time Italy served
an ultimatum upon the conference OF
Paris that unless she were permitted
to deprive the Southern Slavs of their
natural sea gates her delegation would
retire from the conference. Her ulti-
matum brought the desired result. In
one week both the Poles and the South
ern Slavs we're sacrificed. Danzig will
remain &c man. Fiume Will pass to
Italy.
There remains another sacrifice TO be
made to the Germans. To produce q
peace that the Germans would sign it
was not simply necessary TO sacrifice
Poland, but also France. This is being
done. To-day the allies Of France are
engaged in reducing the just claims OF
France for compensation and repara-
ton, and when the reduction is over
France, in return for a million and
half of dead and her ruined northern
industrial regions, will have neither a
guarantee against a new German inva-
sion nor reparaton for the devastation
of the last.
