the bolsheviki regime and express

any comment from Senator Hard

Beyond the general statement
made In his speech at Columbus,
he senator declined to say word
on what he considers q pending
matter of state.
When he said there is just as
much menace in the world today
Is there was in the turbulence of

BY . reading of the distressing re-

May RESIGN
President Deschanel Will
Quit Over British
French Split.

Paris, Aug. 13-(By United Press)
Resignation of President Des-
chanel is imminent, as a result Of
Frances new and aggressive anti
Bolshevik policy and the conse-
quent diplomatic misunderstanding
with Great Britain. It was reported
today in high political circles. In
such an event, it was considered
likely that Premier Millerand
would be elected president and NJ.
BRAND appointed premier.
The press today generally de-
clared recognition of Wrangel's
anti-Bolshevik government by
France was a mere incident in the
gradual divergence between the
Russian policies OF France and
Great Britain. This divergence has
existed for months. the newspapers
said and has reached point where
immediate reorganization of the en-
tente cordiale on a new and solid
basis Is necessary.
Seek Settlement of Differences.
Britain and France today were
automatically negotiating in an ef-
fort to smooth out their differences
with regard to Russia. The for
eign office let it be known that the
points under discussion were the
soviet peace terms to Poland. which
Britain advised the Poles to accept
and which France advised them to
reject; the French recognition of
