Council Of War
Lords Called in Paris as
Result of Russ Moves in
Near and Far East.

London, Jan. 16.-With the
ink on the peace theaty with
Germany hardly dry, Great Brit
ain is now on tho verge OF
plunging herself and other ma
tions into another great war, the
far-rcaching consequences OF
which may result in Il greater
conflict than the war just end
cd.
In deadly fear Of a revolution
i'll India, under Eolshcviki aus
picics, and with the Soviet Rus
Sian forces continuing their
long string OF unbrollcn success
cs against tho nti-Bolshevili
forces, Great Britain's diplomats
in Paris yesterday hnrrictlly
summoned Secretary OF War
Winston Spencer Churchill;
First Lord of the Admiralty
Walter Hume Long, Baron
Beatty, commander of the grand
fleet, and Field Marshal Sir
Henry III. Wilson for 4 secret
conference on military and
naval mattcrs.''
1t was learned authoritatively that
the reason for the hurried summon
ing to Paris of Great Britain's high
est military and naval Officers in the
administration was the receipt by
Premier Lloyd George and his staff
in Paris of the report from the Brit
ish military mission at General Den
ikine's headquarters at Ekaterino-
dar, which told in detail of the mill
tary successes of the Bolsheviki
against Dcnikine and asserted that
not only have the Soviets virtual
mastery of the whole of European
Russian and that one of the next
steps anticipated would be massed
attack by the Bolsheviki on Poland
and the Baltic states. The report
stated that the Russian Soviet forces
are pouring into the transC Caspian
regions.
In addition to this feature of the
Russian situation, a semi-official
within the next three months Great
Gus Bolshevist situation in the
Near East. 1t is pointed out that
Bolsheviki occupation of trans-Cas-
plan regions gives the Bolshvists a
base for the extention of operations
against Persia and into India, with
the. help of the Afghanistan. 1t is
said that although the Georgians and
Azerbaijanians are anti-Bolsheyist,
their forces are not strong enough
to withstand the Bolsheviki inva-
sion either from the north, where
Denikine's right wing is being stead
lily driven backward, or from the Boil
shevki positions across the Caspian
sea.
The statement declares that at Baku
there is strong Bolshevist senti-
ment and that the arrival of Red
troops there would probably result
in the recruiting of these sympathiz-
ers with the Bolsheyist.
European military experts admit
that the Soviet government now con-
trolls formidable forces, but it is be-
lieved they are not sufficiently strong
to attack both on the east and the
west at the same time. While many
