SOVIET ARK" AND RADICALS
 REACH HANC0
Berkman and Goldman De- clare They Will Return to
 Save America.

Hango, Finland, Jan. 16.x--United States army transport BufordI having on board 249 radicals deported from America, arrived here at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Finnish pilots could not dock the vessel and a German pilot was summoned. Alexander Berl6man and Emma Goldman, who have been considered the leaders of the deportees, have de- clared they will not remain in Russia, but will return to America to save it."
 The Reds on board the Buford will be taken to the Russian frontier by United States labor bureau and immi- grafton officials.
 After the Buford had been docked. Berkman and Miss Goldman led a procession of radicals down the gangplank. A large number of per sons assembled on the wharf gazing curiously at the landing. The Reds made up motley y~ttEspohg,' their ir''ffsa faces yeees being full l~~~9f curiosity as to what thgir future might be, while there were traces of anxiety lest they might be attacked after they had left the protection of their American guardians. Finnish authorities will
 look after the safety of the de- portees.
 After they had landed, Berkman and Miss Goldman talked willingly with newspaper men.
 Do you want to overthrow the l American government ?'' Miss Gold | man was asked.
 You need a new government she
 answered, "and hope the election | will provide it.'
 She intends to return to America as soon as possible. She asserts she became an American citizen by virtue
 of her marriage to Jacob Kersner al 1 Rochester, N. Y., in 1887, and declar-
 ed the court decree issued in 1908 | cancelling Kersner's certificate oi naturalization was illegal. Miss | Goldman was divorced from Kersnet
 in 1889, but she claims this did not ] alter her status as 8. citizen of the

WILSON TO ACT
AS MEDIATOR
HORRORS OF ARMENIAN TRAo-
EDY INFLUENCE CHIEF
EXECUTIVE.
TO LEAGUE OFFER
PRESIDENT TELLS COUNCIL HE
WILL ACCEPT OFFER TO END
FIGHTING IN NEAR EAST.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington. Dec. 1.-President VIII
son has proffered his personal media
tion, through n representative, to end
hostllities In Armenia. The offer was
In reply to an invitation from Paul
Hymans. president of the council OF
the League of Nations. transmitting
resolution adopted In behalf of Ar
menia by the assembly of the League
Of Nations at Geneva.
II requested that the 'horrors OF the
Armenian tragedy" be brought TO the
attention of the powers with a view
to entrusting some power with the task
Of taking the necessary measures to
stop the hostllitles.
The United States, although not n
member of the league, was included
among the nations of the world to
whom the broadcast invitation was Is
sued.
Adoption of the resolution was pre-
ceded by some discussion of the feas-
lbillty of organizing an international
force to intervene In Armenia, assniled
alternately by Turkish natlonaiists, the
Bolshevlsts and other s-Caucasian
elements.
In his reply. however, Mr.. Wilson
said he was without authorization to
offer or employ the military forces Of
the United States in any project for
the relief of Armenia are any material
contribution requiring the consent OF
Congress, (which is not now in session
and whose action | could not forecast"
The President declared, however,
that he was willing upon assurances
OF the moral and diplomatic support
of the principal powers, to endeavor
to bring about peace between the con-
tending parties In Armenia through mr.
bitratlon.
He asked suggestions as to the ave
nues through which the proffer should
be conveyed and the parties to whom
1t should he addressed.
The President already has before
him much data bearing on Armenia in
connection with the task intrusted to
him OF fixing Armenian boundaries.
| Question ns to the fate of the Ar
menlan nation was raised In the league
assembly at Geneva by Rene Viylanl Of
France, who declared that the attitude
of the league toward Armenia would
constitute either vindication or con-
demnation of the league to the world.
The Armenian resolution was adopted
by unanimous vote and 1t was deter
mined to seek among the powers me-
diator in the struggle between Armenia
and the Turkish Nationalists who,
since the erection of Armenia as an in
dependent state after the armIstice,
have threatened to oyerwhelm the
country.

MR. SANDERS STRIKES BACK.

AS might be expected and AZ is
always the case. when the Democrats
get in power ut Washington they are
rather severely criticized. The attack
begins early and lasts well and ends
not until the Republicans again get In
band the reigns of government. The
monopoly party seems to be better or
-;inized, or more impervious to criti-
cisin--and it seems also to lie true that
the Democrats are less inclined to heap
abuse upon their heads. The big war
came and closed during Democratic
administration and much abuse has
heen heaped upon the party because
of war expenditures. alleged lack OF
efficiency. etc. But that is Il long story
and all Of us have heard SO much OF
1t at the hands of the opposition until
we are sick and tired of it.
But what we started out to do was
to call attention to the bareback ON
the part of Hon. j. Y Sanders. Con-
