Does Not Recommend
Recognition Bolsheviki
Associated Press

WASHINGTON, April Lord
Reading, the British Ambassador,
authorized the statement today that
suggestions that Premier Lloyd
George had advised recognition of
Lenine or Trotsky, Russian Bolshe-
wiki leaders, were wholly unfounded.
myself were the only Americans in
this part of Germany and we were
sent home by way of Denmark by a:
French Commission of Repatriation,
During the time I was in these Ger
man hospitals, Iewas misused in no
way and saw no one misused. The
food was mostly cabbage and turnips
and not a great deal of this. The

made the Headquarters Of the Ameri-
lean Army of Occupation, and from
here to Konigsburg a town north of
Danzig where l was held in hospi-
tai until the twenty-eighth of Decem-
bec. Another American aviator and
only change of diet we had was made
by putting more or less water in the
soup But the Germans seemed to
thrive on the stuff and wondered why
the Americans could not eat. After
the Armistice was signed, all the
Boche were new men and said they
were mighty glad it was all over,
even if they were beaten. From what
I could find out they all were well
fed UP on the, war and were glad to
go back to their old work, but their
feelings about peace were trifling
compared to mine and as I remember,
France looked real sunny to me when
/ got back .

Cong. Ben Humphreys
Delivers An Address

''The Duty of the Laymen to The
Church." discussed from broad
standpoint, with the church the basis
of civ .lization, was the subject ably
handled last night by Congressman
Ben Humphreys who spoke to large
crowd at the Episcopal church in this
city.
Mr.. Humphreys spoke at length on
"The League of Nations" He stated
that the covenant of the League of
Nations was not written by President
Wilson as was believed by many, but
was written by General Smutts of
South Africa. ''The covenant was
published in order that criticisms
might be made Of it. Criticisms were
invited; some extremists took the
view that because Wilson was for it,
they were against it. Other radicals
supported it simply because President
Wilson was in favor of it. However
despite the opinions of the extremists,
constructive criticism grew out of the
publication of the covenant"
While he expressed himself as being
unanimously in favor of The League
of Nations, Mr.. Humphreys stated
that it was necessary that many
amendments be made before it would
be adopted by the United States. He
spoke of the position that we took
toward Safeguarding the Monroe
Doctrine and the racial question with
in our own country, which it would
| be impossible for the league of ma
tions to solve for US.
Mr.. Humphreys declared that the
majority Of politicians were honest
He told how the government had been
controlled for years by political mer
and yet, today, every oppressed nation
in the world was looking to America
for enlightment and freedom.
The address was closed with ar
earnest appeal that right and justice
prevail and that the people together
with the churches unite and stand to
gether for bringing about these es
sentials.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. M. Nc
Mahon on Walthall and Washington

know of the fire until the neighbors
rushed in and carried her to safety.
The furniture of the home was bad
ly damaged by fire and smoke. Nc
insurance was carried on the house
or furniture.
Only the efficient and quick work

Looks Like Longino
In First Primary

Judging by the expressions of trav-
cling men through ali sections of Mis-
sissippi and evidences of support from
all classes of people everywhere,
present indications point to the NOM
ination of Hon. A. H. Longino for
Governor in the first primary next
August.
The following statement from Lye-
gino headquarters at Jackson was bt
sued by Secretary w. w. Newson- Lace
Saturday:
Tenders of support of the Longino
candidacy for governor by letter, by
wire, by telephone, by the press and in
person are being received in such in
-creasing volume as to justify trans
lation of the suggestion already made
that Longino will be nominated in the
first primary into a positive convic-
tion.
"It is gratifying to be able to state
that voluntary LonginO organizations
have sprung up in many counties and
are actively taking care of local cam
paigns, including newspaper an.
nouncements and other important
matters.
"Since Governor Longino's an.
nouncement it is widely reported that
factional leaders have cordially shak-
en- hands and buried the political
hatchet, with the common declaration
that Mississippi needs and must have
another business administration
Another very significant and high
ly gratifying report is that rival can.
! didates for beat, county, Legislative
and district offices in some countie:
are proclaiming Longino an easy win
ner, and are enthusiastically support
ing him.
Governor Longino has gone t.
Northeast Mississippi to meet an,
confer with friends and supporter
and will be absent several days. H
does not think it right, in view of tn
lateness of the work of planting thi
years crop, caused by the rains, t
ask farmers to come out to hear poll
tical speeches at this time, and there
fore he has not announced speak
| ing itinerary"

Political Parties De-

Allies
WOULD REINSTATE
RUSSIAN NATION
Requests For Munitions
Technical Aid And
Advice.
ssociated Press

LONDON, April General Den
ikine, head of the Russian Volunteer
Army, which 5 fighting Bolshevism
in Southern R, sia, is described by an
English admir- from Odessa as, "A
man of about 0 years with regular
features and t. 81, fine presence of the
striking Russian tpye. He gives one
the impression of being broad
minded, high thinking, determined,
weli-balanced man."
The Associated Press correspond
ent met this Eglishman, whose name
may not be disclosed at the British
Foreign Office.
Denik;ns, he said, is guiding his
army and his Special Councir
through dangerous shoals, but so far
he has not encountered any reefs. The
Especial Council" he explained, is
legislative body which is laying the
foundations of new All-Russian
government" He described it's men,
bers as reformers, call broad-mind-
ed and determined to give Russia ev-
cry possibility of gaining place
among the great free nations of
Europe"
The Volunteer Army now number
ing 100000 men and holding belt
reaching from the Black Sea to the
Caspian, he descr, bed as non-political.
"It stands" according to the travel
err, ''for a united free Russia, for
freedom of press and speech, and is
aiming to bring about such conditions
in Russia that an administrative gov
er1ment can be formed by the will of
the people in fair election"
Denikine, the Englishman said, is
supported by representatives of var
ious political parties, including Cad
cts, Republicans, Social Democrats
and the right wing of the Social Rev.
olutionaries.
"In Bolshevik Russia" he continu-
ed, ''there is only one party-the Boil
shevik party. Healthy, progressive
Socialists are now suppressed. These
Socialists realize that under Deni-
kline they are working to form a
progressive element in a stable gov
ernment They are in his army and
in his Special Council All parties
surrounding the council have learned
by experience that possibly for time
dictatorship will be necessary ir
Russia to bring about that state OF
freedom which they have been wait
ing for for years.
"All these political parties and the
army are looking to the Allies, tc
whom they held through all their diff
ficulties, to help reinstate Russia a:
great nation. They are willing te
fight, and they only ask for mum
tions, technical aid and advice"
A common purpose, said this OBJ
server, actuates General Denikine ant
Admiral kolchak, head of the All
Russian government at Omsk. The.
are separated by strongly-held Boil
shevik territory and whether the,
will be able to join forces at an earl,
date, he was unable to say.
"Just before l came away" he said
General Denikine remarked to me
it would be sweet to hear the bell
ringing in Moscow. But our task
so heavy we cannot march. We ca
only crawl"
