GERMANS EXPECT INVASION BY THE
 BOLSHEV|K ARMY !RumOred That Government Is Preparing for Spring Offensive of Troops
 From Russia
By Associated Press

Berlin, Friday, January 24.-Thc
 New Berliner Zeitung says 1t learns
 the government is actively occupied
 with military preparations for m
 expected bolshevik invasion early
 in the spring, and that 1t expects
 to receive the necessary added au-
 thority from the national assembly
 to mobilize two effective armies
 sia and Sflesia.
 The present preparations are con- fined to the reorganization of volun- teer battalions, some of which are financed privately. owing to the finan- cial straits of the government. The German army will also be called on te protect troops returning from the near east by way of the Ukraine.
 One of the chief difficulties being encountered Is the disinclination Of of f4cefs to re-eniist because of the treat ment they received in the early days of the revolution.
 The newspaper says the campaign te protect the eastern border from Rus sian invasion will be under the gen. eral direction of Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, whose headquarters has not yet been moved from Cassel on ac- count of the alleged opposition of the soldiers councils in the west to the proposed campaign.

.bOLSHEV|KI APPEAR
 HOSTILE ID PEACE MEETING IN PARIS
Message of M. Tchitcherin Regarded as Rejection of Invitation to Sit at
 Conference
By Associated Press

Paris, January 26.-The general opinion expressed this evening was that the wireless message sent yes- terday by NJ. Tchitcherin, minister of foreign affairs of the soviet govern ment in Russia, is the only direct ex- pression provoked thus far by the peace conferences wireless invitation to the Russian factions and that this fact must be taken as indicating that the final attitude of the bolshevik government is hostile to meeting under the conditions proposed.
 It is regarded possible that a more formal reply will be received from the bolsheviki, but the dissatisfaction ex- pressed by the soviet commissioner for foreign affairs is considered as amount ing to rejection of the invitation. It was indicated by stephen Pichon. the French foreign minister. in an interview today, that it rests with the supreme council to decide upon the course to be followed in case the Princes Islands meet ing is abandoned. It Is declared that the supreme council will not consent to hold the meeting anywhere where the bolshe- wiki will have an opportunity to indulge in speeches calculated to spread their doctrine among the peoples of the entente countries an1 the United States
 Such opinions as could be gathered to- day in Paris regarding the probable course to be pursued were to the effect that the supreme council will adopt waiting policy. It was considered certain by those who gave opinions on the situa- tioT that the powers cannot be brought to undertake a joint military expedition in Russia in force now if at all. Each of the great powers has declined to send such force of it's own men and the American position in opposition to an expedition is declared to be even more pro nounced than that of any other nation, trough there have been intimatons that the entente powers looked to the United States to undertake this operation in view ot the fact that the entente powers have suffered more losses as a result of the war.

.bERNST0RFF SAYS !. CONDITIONS ARE FAR MORE STABLE BOlshevism in Germany Is Now Practically Power
 less and Order
 Obtains
By Associated Press

Berlin, Thursday, January 23.-The for eign office is greatly interested in press dispatches from Paris today saying that Germany and Russia are only to be ad- mitted to the league of nations when their political situations have reached stability.
 Count Won Bernstorff today informed the correspondent that foreign officials and other high personaees are unani- mously of the opinion that this situation. if it has not already been attained, would be completely solved with the meeting of the assembly.
 Tt is true that there is much economic iisorganizat.on in Germany today" said Count Won Bernstorff, but the orderl- ness of the elections last Sunday affords evidence of stability in political condi- tions which is highly gratifying to us. r. is stoo carly to say that communism, For bolshevism, is quite killed, but un- doubtedly the determined measures taken against it by the provisional government have rendered it practically poweress, and, in the face of the decided expres sion of the popular will evidenced by the elections, communism has ceased to be a serious political factor.
 Even if all the 24 independents elected to the assembly were adherents to the Spartacan doctrine-and not more than half dozen of them are suspected of such sympathies-they would be powerless before the nearly 400 delegates who, whatever their other political tenets, are all oppo- nents of any class of dictatorship.
 significant in this connection is the fact that the new democratic party which I joined at it's foundation se- cured no less than v seats, thus hold ing the balance of power between the socialists and the more conservative parties. preventing purely socialist government Another important point is that although number of former Reichstag members were elected to the assembly, the membership as a whole is composed of new representatives, and able men and women, whose lives and activities are guarantee of ear nest and honest constructive work at Weimar."

AMERICANS WATCH GERMAN ELECTION No Bolshevism Evident in Region Occupied by
 Tanks
sy Associated Pre.s

With the American Army of Occupa- tion, January 26-Voting for delegates to the Prussian national assembly took place today in the region occupied by the Americans. There was no disorder and no indication of bosheyik influence.
 It was just one week since the election If delegates to the German national as- ,emblv ar tcdav's "e=ults were similar The indications are that the old centrisr or Chris al peop-es party Is leading. This is easily accounted for by the strong support ot the church in the Rhineland, although the social democratic party also has boiled heavily.
 Reports from the interior concerning the entire Prussiap vote indicate that there is a possibility of the majority socialists receiving a majority in the Prussian assembly.
 The instructions to the American troops today were identical to those of last Sun day They were ordered to be merely onlookers and prevent disorder.

EBERT GOVERNMENT NOT COMMITTED ON
 SURRENDER OF KAISER
By Associated Press

Berlin. Thursday, January 2S.-Tne Ebert government has made no official announcement as yet as to what US attitude will be toward the possible demand by the entente for the sur render of the former Emperor. At the foreign office today the correspondent was informed that. inasmuch as no demand had come from any foreign official quarters for the surrender the question was an urgent one.
 The government view appears to be that inasmuch as William Hohenzol- Tern voluntarily took refuge in Hol- land, the German government has only limited power in the matter.
