SAYS TROTZKY HASGREATEST
 ARMED FORCE

MARION, O., July 26. - First hand information on conditions in Russia and Poland was given Senator Hard ing today by C. H. DeFosse, New York fiscal expert, who recently re- turned from Europe. They discussed the relation of this country to Eu- ropean rehabilitation.
 In statement Mir. DeFosse said he had taken the position that this coun- try should go slowly in it's foreign commitments and that he was well pleased with the attitude taken by the senator.
 The fact is that an extremely grave crisis confronts Europe. Trotz- ky has proved good deal of a ge- nius, and he has built in Russia an army numbering probably 1,750,000.
 ''I regard it as the greatest military force in the world today. This is a good time for America to give partic- ular attention to it's own interests and as little as possible to the con cerns of other nations"

NO "MORAL SUPPORT"

WASHINGTON, July 26.- Russia's proposal for a conference with the al- lies in London was regarded unoffi- cially today as a skilful mareuver to effect a quasi recognition of the Sovi- ct regime. Officially the state depart ment was without knowledge of the soviet suggestion. but it was clear that unless some more urgent reason than now is apparent is given, the United States will be in no haste to accept an invitation to join In such a conference, even though one were extended.
 President Wilson, it was said to- day, has kept informed regarding de velopments It has been indicated that, unless the president otherwise directed the attitude of. the United States would be that of an interest ed observer and that for the present no expression of moral support or more active aid will be extended to the Poles.
 Great Britain's lead in fathering the idea of a conference at London it is believed, will receive not alto gether hearty support from Italy and France, although it is considered a more active opposition might be of fered in France than in Italy.

 Trial of Lloyd

CHICAGO, July 26-William Bross Lloyd, millionaire sergeant at arms of the Communist labor party, and 19 others were branded as "cowardly, shrinking, disloyal rebels" when the state today opened final arguments in their trial on charges of plotting to overthrow the government by force.
 "The Communist LaDor party was born in lawlessness in Chicago" As sistant States Attorney M. F. Barn. hart told the jury. The crime in this case was the building up, under dis guise of political party. a gigantic machine to drill revolution into the citizens of the United States. This scheme was born at the left wing conference in New York at which William Bross Lloyd was present
 These defendants denounced the founders of our republic as capital ists and charged George Washington and the framers of the constitution with adopting capitalist consti- tution."

North of Grodno the Red cavalry crossed the Nieman into Old Poland territory fighting in the region of Grodno. The Poles apparently were pushed to the south along the left bank of the Nie- man. In the Bolshevik drive design ed to clear Polish Lithuania and re sulting in the capture of Grodno, the Reds reached a point 240 kilometers northwest of Warsaw The Bolshevik at present are holding positions in the region of Poland's demarcaJ:on as announced by the councll ul amoassa- dors
 The Reds concentrated more than 100000 troops for this drive, which was in accordance with military oper- ations planned in midsummer after failure of the Bolshevik sping offens- i've and Polish and Ukrainian success es at Kiev. The Bolsheviki placed only few divisions in the Pripet marsh country but the Poles were compelled to withdraw in the center, as the left and right wings gave way in the face of large numbers.
 On the front as held today, the Reds threaten the railroad centers of Bielostok, between Grodno and War saw; Brest-Litovsk in the center and to the south Kovel and Lemberg, which the Poles are determined not to give up.
