NEW POLISH REPUBLIC
MAY FACE bOLSHEVK
Report Reaching Here Says Massed
Attack of Russian Reds
Is Feared.

Offfcial reports received in Wash
ington yesterday said there was every
probability that the new republic o.
Poland soon might have TO defend
her independence against a massed
attack of the forces of bolshevik
Russia. Concentration of units of
the red army, forced senlistments from
the peasants and activity in the state
owned munitions works point to This
possibility, it was said, and military
observers here are said to be APP
prehensire Of Ppland's chances Of
withdrawing the onset.
The military establishment OF Po-
land is known to comprise twenty
two dfvisions--about 100000 men
but the equipment is so varied in
design and quality as to make il
almost impossible for the republic
to organize a tactical army capable
of taking the field as a compact unit.
. Under Trotsky's command are
about 100000 men Of the red army.

and augmented still further by what

The bolshevik government today
undoubtedly has a more st..Sie mis-
tary position than ever before in its
history" it was said yesterday by
an Army official whose duty il is TO
watch developments in Russia.

u. S. HAS NOT JOINED
DEMAND FOR Will HEl N
When Treaty Is Ratified May Be
Represented If Trial Is
Political

AS fhe German peace treaty is mot
operative so far as this government
is concerned. the United States has
not Joined in the demand upon 51ol-
land for the extradition of the for
mer kaiser, nor can 1t do SO even If
it desired.
AS head of the commission on re-
sponsibi1ities of the peace confer
ence, Secretary Lansing took the
ground that there was no Law under
which the former emperor could he
brought to trial and punished. In
MS final action upon the treaty. how
ever. the conference designated the
kaiser's acts as in violation of in
ternationa1 morality and provided for
his indicfment and trial by his ac-
cusers. Accepting the view that this
proposes q political. and not a GRIM
inal trial. the American commission
ers signed the treaty. Therefore the
oficfnl view is that, while the United
Sta1es may not now participate in
the effurt TO extradite and try the
former kaiser because of non-action
by this government upon the treaty
il is possible that If the document
is finally ratified as it stands Amer
lea may have a member upon the
court which will conduct the trial. as
required by the treaty
