Says Cropn JeDels Are Safe
in SoUiet Treasury.

Though a young man living In the
same house as Ludwig c. A. X. Martens
was arrested In connection with the re-
cent attempted smuggling Of 1S1 loose
diamonds valued variously from $4,000
to $4,000 the unrecogniged Soviet Am
bassador disclaimed yesterday all knowl-
edge of the diamonds which Federal Of
ficlals said were addressed to him to
finance Bolshevik propaganda.
The seizure of the diamonds from
sailor named Paul Jacobson as he tried
to slip ashore from the Swedish-Amer-
lean line Stockholm on July % was
the work Of vigilant customs guard,
Samuel Schermer. Jacobson pleaded ig-
norance OF the destination OF the gems
and would not tell who gave them to
him. Considerable mystery surrounded
subsequent developments, which included
arrest Of the young man residing In the
Martens establishment and Of woman.
Martens denied participation In any
smuggling scheme. For eighteen
months I have had my own direct cou-
rier system" he said, "and I would be
under no necessity for employing a
roundabout system through Sweden or
any other country, as have been able
to get messages and dispatches through

THE use OF my name In connection
with this seizure Is an attempt by the

REDS PLAN TO GRAB
RUSSIAN POLAND
Plebiscite With Right of In
restricted Propaganda Set
in Peace Terms.
Rp the Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Aug, ia plebsclte
to determine tho future OF Russian
Poland ls one OF the peace terms drawn
up by the BolshevikI coincident with tho
first proposal OF an armistlce by the
Polish Government. The right OF unre-
strcted propaganda In this territory
during the year which would intervene
before the plebiscite also would be de-
manded
These and the other terms OF peace
which are believed to have been formu-
lated FOR submission at the first meet.
Ing between the Soviet and Polish cmis-
sarics were received here to-day in Off
clal circles. The terms are accepted in
Washington as illustrative Of the inten-
tion Of the invaders to impose peace
conditions OF drastic nature
The other terms as received here in
clude the right Of the Soviet Govern
ment TO unrestricted transmission OF all
code messages across Poland between
Russia and Germany, the turning over
Of all salt and coal mines In Poland for
operation by the Soviet Government and
the right OF unrestricted travel for all
Soviet nationals across the Polish from
tiers withoW the Polish Wise on pass
ports
The provision for pleblscIte IN the
portion of Poland formerly belonging to
Russia, together with the stipulation
that the Bolsheviki get permission 10
disseminate propaganda without restrIc-
tion In that territory for one year be-
fore the vote, is Viewed by officials here
as likely to be especially obnoxious 10
the Poles. The granting OF such de-
mands would, ip the opinion OF officials
here, certainly result In the loss to the
Warsaw Government OF Russian Poland,
for all Polish national feeling In that
region, It is considered, would be blotted
out by the Bolshevik propaganda.
Officials were Inclined to believe that
the peace terms TO be submitted at the
Minsk negotiations will be even more
severe than those tentatively prepared
for the Baranovitch conference, which
ended abruptly when the Polish armis-
tice emissaries replied they had no au-
thority TO conclude peace. The recent
successes of the Soviet forces are held
TO have made possible more drastic
terms.

the blame for this crime, apparently
shielding others implicated in the plot
and for whom the police are searching
Paris.
