KIDS ALIVE. QUIT
YOUR WORRIN'
Suspects Admission in Cough
lin Case Gives Ray of Hope.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 7-Agusto
Pasquale, alleged to be the crank" in the
mysterious case of kidnapping of Blakely
CoughIin, Norristown (Pa) baby, had his
first nights, sleep in five days last night.
The man was completely exhausted
after constant questioning since his ar
rest on Monday.
When he promised to tell all he knew
at 5 .. m. today unless the child was
turned over to It's parents by that time,
authorities agreed to permit him to rest
during the night.
Jail attendants awakened him early to-
day, however, and he was again cross ex-
amined.
Late yesterday officials who had been
questioning Pasquale announced he had
sent IAN ultimatum' to his alleged con-
federates, in which he declared If the
child was not returned at p. m. he
would 'squeal."
Feverish~ from loss of sleep. desperate
from ninety six hours constant question
ing by two shifts of merciless police.
and in the midst Of a plea for mo-
ment's rest, the alleged crank" groaned,
"The kids alive; whatta yu' worrin'
about?"
George H. Coughlin, father Of the kid
naped baby, was happy when he was told
of 1.-The crank's" admission
Norristown itself was confident that the
child would be home soon and prepara-
tions were made for a real home coming
celebration.
While the prisoner has not revealed the
identity of the woman whom he claims
has the child. police said they were work
ing on important clews which they be-
lieved would lead to her apprehension

entered into an agreement to try to
break the Versailles treaty.
If the people of Britain and France
were convinced of the truth of this. they
might be aroused to war fever. but not
otherwise, it was apparent today.
The text of the latest Russian note
t. Britain has been made public here.
In it Kemenoff, the soviet representa-
tive. informed Lloyd George he had com
municated to Moscow the British deci-
sion to side with Poland in the new war
and renew the blockade
Kemenoff charged the Poles were de-
laying armistiee and peace negotiations,
hoping to bring about foreign interven-
tion.
He declared the bolsheviki could not
halt their advance until they were as
sured the Poles would not take advan-
tage Of the respite TO bring up reinforce
ments and thea renew hostilities.
Russia VIII halt, he said. when the
Poles give reasonable guarantees tha.
they will partially disarm and cease re-
eruiting.
He pledged Russia to respect Poland's
independence.
1t was made plain the bolsheviks want
10 sign peace with Poland on the fed
OF battle and then submit the pact fof
ratification at the London general peace
conference where they can come In as
victors. demanding worldwide recognition
and trade advantages.
Reports that the Russians had started
an army to invade Persia and that they
were threatening British possessions In
the east were received here with reserve.

BRITISH MAKE STRONG
EFFORTS FOR PEACE

LONDON, Aug. THE British gov
ernment, in its efforts to prevent a new
European war, IS making strong repre-
sentations to Moscow, according to in
formation from an authoritative source
today.
But it is preparing Tor any eventuality.
The dangers arising from the unchecked
advance Of the Russians through Poland
have been intensified by news of great
red invasion Of Persia which menaceo
British interests in India.
The Daily News is authority for the
statement that preliminary instructions
have been sent to the allied commanders
on the Black sea to cooperate with Gen.
Wrangel. tie anti-bolshevik leader in
southern Russia, In the event OF certain
contingencies.
While It is not officially confirmed that
any decisive steps have yet been taken
to tighten the blockade on soviet Russia
reports were current today that British
destroyers are on their way TO the Bal
tic.
British newspapers, in their editorial
comment today. were more hopeful Of
peace than they were yesterday.
There is ground for saying that the
British government is bringing pressure
upon the Russians to act reasonably and
to give guarantees to Poland by their
own behavior that their engagements will
be carried out" said the Daily Express
This optimism was born out by state
ments of British foreign office officials.
They expressed strong hopes that a con-.
plete agreement would be reached by the
British and French premiers.
