Nations Prevents European

Paris.-A wireless message from

and will extend no military or finan-

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
BOlsheviS-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, it
became known that preparations had
been completed for allied aid 10 Pol
and in the form of money food and
ammunitions. with a POSSIBLE that a
body of French troops would also be
sent against the Bolsheviki.
In official circles it was stated that
the societ government in Russia must
now stand or fall on its merits as a
panacea, and it was generally believed
that with external military pressure
no longer an argument with the so
Wet chieftains, they would be hard

capital from three sides. Strong de-
-achments of Lithuanians had joined
the soviet armies against the Poles
and the latter were greatly outnum-
