Berlin, April 19-(By MaiD-Ths
Russian soviet government will
abandon Bolshevism If it finds
that doctrine 10 not .he proper
method to reach it's goal, commun-
ism, N. Makowski, Boishevik secret
agent in Berlin, said in an inter-
view today.
"The Bolsheviki have no definite
program since Premier Lenine holds
that what is medicine for country to-
day may be poison tomorrow and
platforms cannot be made permanent
said Makowski.
THE aim of the Bolsheviki is com
munism and equality for everybody
We may find out eventually that Boil
shevism Is not the proper means for
attaining our end. We will then act
accordingly and somehow reach COM
munism by opportunism, but always
work toward communism.
STATE TO BE SUPREME
I'VE believe that ultimately every
thing must be specialized. Everything
must belong to the state and no one
must own anything. A person may
have anything he wants simply by
asking for it. That is our Utopia,
which We may not reach for q .slong
time, of course.
I'VE hold that the greatest end of
communism is the capitalistic system.
Naturally the capitalists will not di-
vide up equally, so we are abolishing
individual capitists and making the

REPLY DUE SOON

BY WILLIAM PHILLIP SIMS
United Press Staff Correspondent
Paris, May 12.-The Allies were
expected to reply today to the lat
est German communication re-
gardins the peace terms.
These communications were con-
tanned in two notes filed with the
French foreign office by Count
Brockdorff- Rantzau, head of the
enemy delegation. The first stated
that Germany already has many of
the reforms contained in the la
Dor section of the treaty and pro-
posed that an international law
conference be held in Versailles
at once to revise this article. The
second asked that the 100000 Ger.
man war prisoners be repatriated
as soon as the treaty is signed and
that they also be guaranteed ade-
quate food and clothing.
ADMISSION ASKED
The latest communications followed
two submitted by the Germans last
week, one of which asked immediate
admission of Germany to the league OF
nations. The other declared that the
terms in general are not consistent
with the principles of right and JUS
tice. To the first the allies replied
by referring the Germans to the league
covenant, which shows how Germany
seeks membership. To the second, the
allies stated they would not admit dis.
cussion of their right to enforce the
terms substantially as drafted.
Couriers are rushing back and fortt
between Versailles and Berlin, lik

When Almost in Sight of
the City of Petro-
grad
SOVIETS ASSUME
THE OFFENSIVE
Heavier Artillery Is Being
Brought Up by Anti
Bloshevik Forces

London, Oct 22-General Yudenitch,
commander of the northwestern Rus
sian army, seems to have been brought
to a virtual standstill by the stubborn
defense of Petrograd, which is almost
within sight of his men, Soviet forces
are even reported to have taken the
offensive north of Krasnoe, Selo, but
details of the fighting have not been
as yet fully reported.
East of Pulkovo, the Yudenitch army
appears to have encountered strong
bolshevik columns. Pulkovo is about
three miles from the only remaining
railway line running south from Petro
grad and the Importance of retaining
control of this road may explain the
savage fighting in that sector, Late re-
ports state that heavier artillery is be-
ing brought up by General Yudeniteh.
Soviet troops reported to have been
concentrated near Gdof, near Lake
Peipus, are said to have been scattered
by the anti bolsheviki The presence
of this force on the left flank of the
Iudenitch army constituted seeming
menace to the whole movement against
Petrograd, and also appeared to indi-
cate that the bolsheviki are still quite
strong on the coast west of Petrograd.
Kronstadt has not surrendered to the
lnti-bolsheviki and has not been at
tackled, according to British admir-
atty statement 1t is held the fortress
win fall Immediately upon the capture
of Petrograd by General Yudenitch.
That this event is fully expected, is
evident by the readiness of the north
western Russian government to move
into the city and take control OF the
situation.
Official reports issued from soviet
headquarters at Moscow admit the loss
of Kiev, but make no further mention
of the claim that 0rel, 40 miles south
of Moscow, has been recaptured from
General Denikine's troops.
