LOYALTY APPEAL
NEAR ARCHANGEL
American Troops Demur at
Returning to Service; Told
Life Was at Stake

ArchauSeI, April 1O.-A company
of American troops recently shove
some hesitation in returning to the
fighting front south Of Archangel,
declaring that the war with Germany
was over, and that the United States
was not at war with the Bolsheviki
The regimental commander told
them they were lighting desperate
defensive battle and appealed 10 them
to stick it out. The company then
left for the front.
The situation arose when the COM
pany named was ordered back TO the
front after a rest period at Arch
angel The officers were informed
that the men did not want 20 90 to
the front again. They asked to have
their arguments answered.
The men contended that they were
draft men conscripted for the war
with Germany, which was finished
now, that America was not at war
with the Bolsheviki, that the entire
Bolshevik question was the subject
of much political debate and incesis-
ion in the United States. and that
so far as they were concerned they
were unable to see why they should
be fighting if there was no war.
The regimental commander said
that. perhaps. their own lives de-
pended on the fighting on this front
and then made his successful appeal,
reciting to the men traditions of the
American army.

CZECHO-SLOVAKS
FACE STARVATION
WOMAN DECLARES
Daughter of President Points
Out Need For Quick
Food Relief

Paris, April 10.-Utter misery. star
vation and despair prevailed in the
new republic of Czecho -Slovakia be-
fore the Allied governments began
to ship food supplies to that country
in the latter part of February.
1t is not known here whether this
situation has been relieved to any
large extent, but large shipments OF
flour. milk and other supplies have
since been forwarded to Prague and
additional foodstuffs were in Triest
awaiting transportation to the
Czecho -Slovaks.
An appeal by DR.. Alice C. Masaryk,
daughter of President Masaryk, and
head of the Czecho-Slovak Red Cross,
written on February 20, pictures the
conditions in her country as terri
BILE one. American. British and
French authorities are endcavoring
to respond.
Face starvation
1t is stated that. unless help ar
rived quickly, million children un-
der six years old were doomed to die;
that 100000 children up to fourteen
years were weak from underfeedinS
and that the mortality among the
old and feeble was appalling.
Separated from the Allied terri
tories on three sides by Germany and
Austria, the CZecho-Slovak republic
was, even before its birth, ruthlessly
and Systematically denuded by the
Austrians of all foodstuffs and sup
lies. When hostilities were suspend
ed, there was in CZecho- -SloVakia no
corn, meat, clothing or medicines.
The scanty weekly ration of pound
of flour to each person in Prague. the
capital, ceased on February 20. Two
thirds of the cattle and pigs of the
country already have been slaughter
ed and the lack of fat is extreme. The
supply of milk was only one-thir-
tieth of normal. More than eighty
per cent. of the babies of Prague
were rachitic. anaemic or consump-
tive. More than half the patients in
the children's hospital died of con-
sumption.
In the mining districts the position
as reported here, is still worse. AT
Kladno, 116 of the 165 babies born in
1918 died of consumption. Births
, throughout the country have decreas-
ed one-half and deaths have increas-
ed so per cent.
No Food For Hospitals
Almshouses, maternity hospitals
and other charitable institutions can
no longer feed their inmates. Nine
one year in Pilsen, the formerly
flourishing city of breweries and
arsenal work ers, died last year from
lack of nutrition. Prices OF house
hold commodities have risen 700 to
500 per cent, while wages have in
creased 200 to SOC per cent. Clothing
costs ten times more than formerly
and sewing cotton is 100 times dearer
than before the war.
These reports show that Professor
Thomas q. Masaryk, the first presi-
dent OF the new CZecho-Slova re-
public, who went from New York last
winter to assume his duties, faces a
herculean task. Writing to Lady
Muriel Paget on February 10. the
presidents daughter told her, father
said he hoped you would come. Dc

Lady Paget has obtained from the
French government ten trucks which
the American Red Cross has tlleo

Slovaks, and plans to take to Is

BERLIN SOVIETS
DEMAND RELEASE
OF SOCIALIST
Prussian and National Gov
ernmentS Put in Predica-
ment by Turn in Affairs
BIZ Associated Press.

Berlin. April 1O.-The resolution
adopted at the opening session of the
Soviet Congress here Tuesday night
peremptorily demanding the re-
lease of Georg Ledebour, the Inde-
pendent Socialist leader arrested
during the Spartacan outbreak, has
placed the PruSsian and national
governments in an awkward predica-
ment. The demand was based upon
the fact that Herr Ledebour had
been elected a delegate to the con-
gress and the contention that he
should be permitted TO exercise his
duties in that connection. The chair
man of the congress ruled favorably
to the Independents on prelimin-
ary motion, and a turmoil resulted
in which the violence of the recri-
limitations hurled from the left by
the radicals caused the majority So
cialiSt members to waver enough to
insure the necessary votes to carry
the motion. The result was applaud
ed and the officials of the congress
had no other choice than forthwith
TO address messages to the national
and Prussian governm ents, the states
attorney, and the authorities of the
Moabit Jail where Ledbour is con-
fined apprising them of the wishes
of the Soviet delegates. The mem
bers of the government were booked
to leave for Weimar early Wednes-
day morning The Prussian minis
try of state is said to be opposed to
liberating Ledebour, but the inde-
pendents propose. to press the issue
to the extreme limit and hurry a
decision, it is indicated by a dec
laration of Herr Rosenfell, former
Prussian minister of justice and an
Independent leader. He blandly in
formed the presiding officials that he
supposed it might be taken for
granted that they would promptly
proceed to comply with the wishes
of the delegates so that Ledebour
might be able to take part in the
deliberations of the congress imme-
diate1y.
Among the resolutions introduced
in the congress is one calling upon
the government to appoint five dele
gates of the congress as members of
the German peace delegation.
In addition to the Ledebour case
there has arisen that of DR.. Geyer,
an Independent Socialist deputy to
the national assembly. The Deutsche
Tages Zeitung says that the states
attorney at Leipsic has requested the
assembly to suspend the immunity
of Deputy Geyer so that he may be
tried for alleged completely in an
attack made during the last Sparta
can outbreak in Leigsic. when the
Independents extorted 100000 marks
from the mayor by threats with
army. DR.. Geyer, who also is a dele
gate to the Berlin Soviet congress,
is a radical independent with Spar
tacan-communist leanings.

BY REPUBLICANS
Mrs. Medill Mccormick De-

Philadelphia, April 10.-Assur-

ment would be passed by Congress
within two weeks after it convenes

nual convention of the Pennsylva-
mia Woman Suffrage party. which

quet here last night by Mrs. MediH

tional Woman's Republican commit.
tee. Mrs. John Q. Miller. of Pitts
burgh, president of the State organ
ization, said that Governor Sprou,
had assured the Pennsylvania Wom-
an Suffrage party of his support in
getting through the Legislature the
referendum on the suffrage ques-
ton.
Mrs. Richard Aldrich, of New
York. representing the National
women's Democratic committee,
said she was not going to prophesy
about the passage of the federal
amendment. Democracy, she de-
clared, has always held to the idea
of states rights and was inclined
that way on the suffrage question.
Women are already politicians, she
said, and now that they seem to
have gained their point and about
to gain the franchise they must look
forward another step; they must
help to make the policies"
II have learned not to be CRATE
full to>parties until they have deliv-
cred the goods" said Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, national president of
the Suffrage party. Il will not thank
the Republican party in the person
of Mrs. Mccormick for the promised
franchise, nor the Democratic party
in the person of Mrs. Aldrich until
women can vote. When l look
around and realize that tonight we
might have been celebrating the
gift of the franchise but for two
men in Pennsylvania belonging, to
the Republican party. 1 remember
that I have n ranking grievance.

condition since he started taking

He had no appetite and slept badly.
Some nights he had hardly any

round his heart and it was difficult
for him to breathe. A friend told
him about Taplac. Now his appe-

is a good deal better and sleeps
