Says Berlin Sent
Arms to TrOtzky
London Writer asserts
Need Of Ammunition
Sent Him to East Prussia

LONDON, Aug. 24.-Germany has
shipped supplies and ammunition to
Soviet Russia, according to cor
respondent of the Times. who insists
that Leon Trotzky, Russian Bolshevik
Minister of War and Marine, visited
malls of reports to that effect from
Moscow.
THE retreat of the Bolshevik armies
from the gates of Warsaw" declares
the correspondent, may be explained
by the fact that they lacked ammuni-
ton. Trotzky foresaw the need of the
armies during the frantic effort made
to capture the Polish capital, and made
plans accordingly, but was too late.
'He crossed into Germany and
reached an agreement with representa-
tives of the German government by
which it would supply ammunition to
the Bolsheyiki.
THE ammunition has been paid for,
in part, gut of the Soviet Jewel fund. ,
which includes the crown jewels. 1t
was the intention of the Bolsheviki to
reserve this fund solely for propaganda
purposes in the East, but Germany in
sisted upon cash payment.
The second object of Trotzky's visit
TO East Prussia was TO prevent NUM-
tions from reaching Poland, and to ac-
complish this object he employed Ger
mans ct Danzig with money from the
same jewel fund A large traffic in
arms took place between the Russians
and Germans in the neighborhood of
Soldau" "

tions Russia, however. ne refers ex-
clusively to General Wrangel and al
those forces which France intends to
help overthrow the Red regime.
1t remains to be seen what influence
on French policy a sudden recognition
of the Cars debts by the Bolsheviki
would have, but for the present the sit
uations opens up other vistas to French
eyes.
Reports say that Ukrainan detach
ments again are fighting in the Polish
ranks, which may influence Ukranian
public opinion to such an extent that
it soon will be possible for the Poles
to join with General Wrangel's forces
across Ukrainian territory. France
considers that Poland has the Boil
shevik situation we'll in hand, but she
has danger point in her rear in Up
per Silesia.
She is doing her best to restrain the
Poles from venting their feelings
against the Germans, but the situation
remains anxious. DR.. Walter Simons,
German Foreign Minister, is reported
IN an interview with a correspondent
of Stampa to have declared he doubted
whether the Allied forces at the dis
posal of General lie Rond are sufficient
to resist a Polish invasion of Upper
Sllesia. DR.. Simons continues:
am very anxious about Upper
Si!esia. If the Polish troops occuned ID
this territory, which is still German,
our neutrality would be violated. In
thls case we would send note to the
Entente and to Warsaw and if salts
faction were refused US, we would
march against Poland"
Or. Simons also is reported to have
sald that diplomatic relations were
about to be opened between Germany
and Russia, and that German ambas-
sador would leave shortly for Moscow.

Alleged Bank Robber Says
He Gave Money to Poor
Held on Charge of Hoboken
Theft, Tells Police of Help
ing Sick UnfOrtunates

James Clark, fifty-seven years old
arrested last night in City Hall Park
as fugitive bank robber from Hobo
ken, told detectives, they say, that he
had used some of the banks money
to stake" unfortunates at q mountain
sanitorium in Sullivan County.
According to the New Jersey police,
Clark made off with bag containing
$3.50 in cash and $3.50 in checks, which
depositor early in April delivered to
the Second National Bank after bust
ness hours. Clark was on duty at the
time.
Clark said, according to the police,
that a film theater proprietor had
brought the bag of cash to the bank
and turned it over to him for safe
keeping. He kept it safely for his
own uses, he is quoted as saying, and
the following week made it his business
to seek out a number of tuberculosis
victims to whom he made generous
gifts.
In company with some of them, the
police say, he explained that he fled
to the Catskills, where he justified his
act with the thought that the rich
owed it to the poor to help them.
Magistrate George Simpson in Tombs
Court held Clark without bail for ex-
animation tomorrow.

Charges Britain Donated
$87,5OO to Cox Campaign
Representative Britten Declares
Entertainment FUND.- of EN-
bassy Went to Democrats


CHICAGO, Aug. Representative
charged that $3.50 of British money
appropriated to the British Ambas-
sador at Washington "for entertain
ment purposes" had found its way into
the Democratic Golfers, and that this
would be followed by "ten times that
amount"
Congressman Britten said:
Inc pending investigation will show
that the British Parliament recently
appropriated $S7.5OO in favor of the
British Ambassador at Washington for
'entertalnment purposes and that this
fund already has found its way into
the Dem ocratc National Committee,
where it will no doubt be followed by
ten times that amount, should it be
made evident that this new disciple of
Wilson can win with money rather than
on honest issues
Local Democratic bosses already are
forsaking the head of the ticket in an
attempt to save few city and county
offices out of what now appears to be
complete wreck on Election Day be-
cause of the juvenile campaign ideas
of their leader"
From The Tribpmes Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-In the alb
sence of Sir Auckland Geddcs, the
British Ambassador, who is in St. Louis,
none Of the attaches at the British En-
bassy would comment tonight on the
charges made by Representative Brit
ten. 1t was said at the embassy that
only the Ambassador himself could
make answer to such accusation.
Administration officials and members
of the Democratic National Committee
also declined to make any statement.
In diplomatic circles it was said that
undoubtedly the British Embassy
would have some statement in rcfuta
ton of the charges to lay before the

retary of State.

Britain Insists
Soviet Explain
Broken Faith

Allies, through Premier Millerand, to-
day instructed Sir Reginald T. Tower,
High Commissioner for the League of
Nations in Danzig, to give Poland COM
plete liberty to ship through the port
Of Danzig and to assist the Warsaw
government in unloading munitions
that arrive there consigned to the
Polish government.
One solution for the settlement of
the Danzig controversy, raised by
ing of munitions in that port con
signed to Poland, which was said to be
under consideration to-day by Great
Britain and France, was Allied occupa-
tion of the city, although up to to-
night no decision had been reached.
One report here is that the military
auth critics of both Great Britain and
France are agreed that it would be in
advisable to attempt to unload NUM-
ions at Danzig at the present time.

PARIS, Aug. 24.--(By The Associated
Press. The Poles continue to exploit
their victory in a most skillful manner
The Bolshevik Northern Army, even
should it be able to cut its way east
ward, will find its road barred by
President Pilsudski's forces. who have
reached Bialystok by rapid march.
The Bolsheviki, however. according
to the latest advices reaching Paris,
are very active higher up the Bug,
notably in the region of Wlodawa,
seventy-two miles southeast of Siedlce.
Pilsudski is believed to have left
forces on the river to guard his flank
and rear, bun unless the Reds are al
mander cannot long ignore the poten-
tial danger.
New Polish Move Expected
1t is expected in French military cir
cles that Pilsudski will detach part of
his troops both to ward against this
danger and to hasten the liberation Of
the whole of the territory. 1t is
thought he will likely start double
move rorthward toward Grodna so as
to restore strategic liaison with the
Wilma Lithuanians, and to the south or
southeast so as to force retreat of
the Bolsheviki still in positions on the
Bug River and in Galicia.
So far it has been plain sailing for
the Poles, in the opinion of the mill
tary observers, but it is declared fur
ther development Of the operations in
wolves a certain danger for the Poles,
who will be obliged to extend their
front considerably. 1t is pointed out
that it was such an extension Of front
which placed the Poles in a position of
inferiority at the time of the Bolshe-
vik offensive. and if the same cause
should be followed by the same effect
by an ill-considered advance now the
Poles would be liable to lose a large
part of the fruits of their victory.
