Concerted Action Among Allied

Paris.-A wireless message from
Moscow, says the Hayas Agency, an
nounces that the Russian soviet army
is falling back by order of the soviet
commander.
London.-The allies will make no
further move against the Bolshevih
and will extend no military or finan-
cial aid to anti.Bolshevik factions
aside from relief in the form of food
and clothing, it was stated on good
authority here
The danger that Europe would
again be plunged into war through a
BolsheVik- German military combina-
ton was averted for time, at least,
by the action of the Moscow govern
ment in accepting Poland's plea for
an immediate armistice. The soviet
government ordered all commanders
of Red armies in the field to open
negotiations for an armistic immedi-
ately.
Shortly before receipt OF the Mos
COW wireless dispatch announcing ac-
ceptance of the armistice proposal, 1t
became known that preparations had
been completed for allied aid to Pol
and in the form Of money, food and
ammunitions, with a possibility that
body OF French troops would also be
sent against the Bolsheviki.
In official circles 1t was stated that
the societ government in Russia must
now stand or fall on its merits as a
panacea, and 1t was generally believed
that. with external military pressure
no longer an argument with the So
Wet chieftains, they would be hard
put to II to meet the demands of the
industrially sick and hungry Russians.
Military men here declared the cap
ture OF Warsaw by the Bolsheviki was
a matter OF few hours when the
armistice plea was accepted, as Red
armies were converging on the Polish
capital from three sides. Strong de-
tachments of Lithuanians had Joined
the soviet armies against the Poles
and the latter were greatly outnum-
bered and lacked ammunition and
heavy artillery.
