Russian Soviets
Are Not Asking
For Recognition
BY Fred S. Ferguson

United Press Staff Correspondent
Copyright, 1919, by United Press.)
PARIS, April 4.-The Russian So
Wet government is not asking for rec
ognition from the associated powers
it was learned from authoritative
sources yesterday. The proposition
recently submitted to the peace con-
ference by Premier Lenine, summed
up, is substantially:
make peace with US, enabling US
to end the numerous little wars that
are being waged in Russian territory.
Lift the blockade so as to permit
US to get food and materials.
"Then we will make good and you
can recognize us--if you care to-"
The Russians, it is understood, are
willing to make a separate peace with
the associated powers, that is with
out including the new Hungarian So
Wet government in the pact. By max
ing peace with the Russians is actu-
ally meant withdrawal of all allied
forces from Russia and cessation of
participation in such campaigns as
that in the Odessa district.
Lenine agrees to cease fighting, it is
declared, and stop propaganda work
in other countries, applying his gov
ernmental machinery to show it is pos
sible for system to succeed in which
a rich man cannot get anything mere
ly because he is rich.
The Russians attitude is that such
military operations as they are now
carrying on is in self defense. 1t is
know the peace conference is giving
extensive consideration to the latest
reports from Russia and is becoming
more impressed with accumulating
evidence that violence and bloodshed
are not stopping bolshevism.
An instance of this is contained
in reports received from Copenhagen
regarding the reception accorded
General Mannerheim in neutral coun-
tries. Mannerheim crushed the boil
shevist movement in Finland by kill
sng hundreds. When he went to
Stockholm recently a huge crowd,
awaiting him on the pier, hissed and
hooted. Mannerheim did not leave
the boat. In Copenhagen he was
stoned while riding through the
streets with the king. lie intended
to visit Norway but his visit was can
celled.
In view of the reports Of serious
food conditions, as well as the spread
of typhus in Russia, coupled with
danger of a Russo-German alliance,
the peace conference is said to be
whether the associated
powers can afford to ignore the pres
ent opportunity to effect an imme-
date agreement with the Lenine
