Persistent efforts to induce German
Austria to go bolshevik were hampered
by the dependence of the Austrians on
the allies for food, but Amsterdam dis
patches said a soviet republic was pro-
claimed in Salzburg, which is near the
Bavarian border In Vienna conditions
became steadily worse and acts of vio-
lence increased. A meeting of the SOL
diers and workmen's council of Vienna
was called for April IA for the purpose
of discussing a soviet form of govern
ment.
In Germany there were continual
| outbreaks against the Ebert govern
ment, the greatest demonstrations be-
ing in Essen, Magdeburg and in the
former duchy of Brunswick. The Es-
sen radicals brought about strike of
the Krupp workers and seized the
plant but were ousted by government
| troops, after which two-thirds of the
men went back to work. The insur-
gents of Magdeburg also were routed
| by soldiers sent by Minister of Military
| Affairs Noske. From Brunswick came
reports of a strong movement In IA
vor of a soviet government, and COM
munists of Saxony made like de-
mand.
AS had been anticipated, the allies
were forced to evacuate Odessa. being
attacked by an overwhelming number
of Ukrainian bolsheviki. This was re-
ally considerable triumph for Lenine
and TrotZky, for they gained control
of the most fertile regions of southern
Russia besides capturing large supplies
of cash. The allied commander with
drew his troops, numbering about So
600. to COnstantinople and Roumania.
In North Russia the soviet troops APP
peared to be preparing for renewal
of their offensive, despite their recent
allied forces. British re-enforcements
and American engineers sailed from
England for Archangel
Decidedly unpleasant was the admis-
| sion by the war department that open
mutiny was threatened recently by the
American troops in North Russia I'M
less Washington speedily announced
| its policy as to early withdrawal of
the armed forces in that region. Some
of the men fatty refused to go to front
line positions. The American soldiers
cannot understand why they are call
ed on to make war against Russians
when war has not been declared, and it
is declared this feeling is shared by
the troops of other natiOnalities. Rep
| resentatives of the anti-bolShevik Rus
SLAMS have repeatedly said in this coun-
try that they ask only munitions and
moral support from the allies, and
have urged that all the armed forces
of the latter be withdrawn from Russia
as speedily as possible.
The Esthonians reported continued
successes against the bolsheviki. in
Guiding the capture of seven villages
and many prisoners.
Conditions in Roumania and Poland
are causing the allies considera-
BILE worry. for there Is danger
some feel, of great bolshevist
combination of Russians, Hungari-
ans and Germans that would crush
those two countries. The allied troops
that went from Odessa to Roumania
will help some, but II was felt that no
time should be lost in getting General
Haller's Polish divisions to Poland
Marshal Foch arranged with the Ger
mans that those divisions might be
transported by train across Germany,
and If necessary might be landed in
Danzig. In this compromise of the dis
pute with the Huns over the East Prus-
sian port it is felt by many that the
allies yielded too easily to Germany
and did not give due support to the
claims of Poland. In England Premier
Lloyd George was bitterly assailed for
his Danzig policy.
Freakish weather worked havoc in
the Southwest and West last week. In
north Texas, southern Oklahoma and
Arkansas there was terrific tornado
that killed about one hundred persons,
injured many more and destroyed
property worth millions of dollars.
Heavy snow in the Rocky mountain
states tied up the railroads and demon
allied wire communication.
