BOLSHEYIKI OUTSIDE
Soviet Complains It's Trade

BERLIN, Dec. 20 ASSOCIATED Press).
The official Russian Soviet Trade
Commission has notified German firms
with which it has been dealing here
that it is unable to conclude pending
agreements. II says It is hanpered in
Guilty in securing permission for it's
representatives to enter Germany and
by lack Of office space in Berlin.
The commission. which has a monop-
oily on German trade. has at present a
personnel of 800 and 40 Office rooms.
The Tageblatt, commenting on the
complaint. which it says 1t believes
threatens German Russian trade rela-
tions. which recently have been greatly
improving. charges that the trouble Is
due ito Prussian bureaucracy. the psy-
chology of which can easily be seen; II
Is the fear of Bolshevism, which has
sought a last retreat In the bureaus Of

In connection with the Increasing vol

under way for the establishment Of a
Russian credit fund here of ], 900. .000, 100
marks to be guaranteed by Russian
Treasury notes which Will not be put

To this proposal Die Zeit suggests the
possibility that the arrangement will
lead to "the reconstruction of Russia
with German reparation bonds"
AS indicating the trend toward closer
trade relations comes an announcement
that the Deutsche Bank. the Berlin

Tank and the Warburg Banking House
have been named as correspondents of
the Russian State Bank and that COM

SOVIET ARMY MUST
PREPARE FOR WAR
Trotzky Tells Russians DAN
ger to SOviets Looms in
Spring.

Moscow, Dec 29 (Associated Press).
The Soviet army and navy, now total
ing 1886, 900 men, must not be reduced
but, on the contrary. must increase train
ing and be prepared for war next spring
and summer in the event that outside
foes carry out their plans to attack
Soviet Russia. declared the Soviet Min
lister OF War, Trotzky, in fiery speech
before the ninth All-Russian Congress
to-day.
Enthusiastic applause greeted Trot-
zky when he said the Japanese were
aiding the White Guard aggression In
the Far East and added: THE I'm
pudent imperialistic beasts Of prey must
know that besides the four Powers
which have just concluded an agreement
among themselves there Is still a fifth
Soviet Russia and the Red army"
Trotzky announced to the Congress
the capture of Khabarovsk. in Siberia
by the White Guards 'in the presence
OF Japanese bayonets"
Now can we remove our troops from
the Far East?' he demanded rhetori
cally. mo. We can only regret there
were not enough of them. But we are
certain that in the future enough Rec
bayonets will be there to hold back the
pressure"
Trotzky cited the Kareilan adventure
which. he said, was backed and financed
by; Finland. and the Far East aggres
sion as simultaneous events planned by
foreign enemies. He also announced
that In the Black Sea district a new Gov
eminent was being fomented by the
BLACK Sea Committee for Saving Rus
sia."
'In the face of these facts" he con-
tinued. 1--WE all want peace. But we
can't get 1t this winter. We will dill
gently learn military tactics. We will
prepare for spring and summer. so tha
we will not be caught mapping. We will
prove, If we are compelled to do so, tha
in 1922 it will be easier to expand thar
to contract the Soviet Russian from
tiers"
Irotzky particularly recommended
greatly increasing the efficiency Of avia.

tanks and other armored fghting ma

army had been workingmen and were
unframed for military service, excep

DALI HAS NO POWER
TO RATIFY TREATY
Members Elected UnderHonie
Rule Act Are Competent.

DrBrrN. Dec 20 ASSOCIATED Press).-
Although no compromise between the
opporents and advocates Of the Anglo
Irish treaty in the Dali Eireann has yet
been attained future plans designed TO
avoid wrecking the agreement are oeing
considered.
II is generally recognized now that
ia de Valera was right IN statlns
that the Dali has no power TO ratily ti1e
treaty. The treaty itself prescripes tne
mode of ratification to be by the mem
bers elected to sit in the House OF Com-
mons OF southern Ireland, wnich was
constituted under the home rule act OF
1eoo hut which actually never met ana
which. except for the purpose OF rati,
fvinp the treaty, probably never VIII
meet It's membership Is nearly but not
quite. the same as that OF the Dan.
The Dali includes some members from
northern Ireland and excludes -FOUR
elected 70 the southern Parliament from
TRINITY College. The idea is that aiter
the Dali approves OF the treaty, ~nlcn
II is expected to do by comparaive,y
email majority, the ratifying noay
named in the treaty shall be summoned,
rha DaiI members who are dissatisfied
With the treaty need not attend this
ga rsnerine. Il Is pointed out and thus
their colleagues. plus the Trinity mem
hers might ratify the document unani-
mously. The Dali would still function
nc Ireland only recognized elected par
iiamentary assembly. =.
A provisional government would De
formed under the treaty and the pau
Eireann could act as check on itH
functions. It will take many months
for the new Irish constitution to be pu.
into working order. in the meantime y
IA hoped the differences between the sim
Fein leaders might be accommodation
There is. however. possibility that Mr
do valera. Austin stack. Charles bur-
yess and Erskine Childers may. as De
Valera has said, regard the new Prov,
s;onaI government as an usurpation ana
campaign against 1t.
The country's opinion on acceptance
Of the treaty Is not in doubt even .he
members of the Dali Eireann oppos'ne
.he treaty admit that they could no'
carry more than very small proportion
of their constituents with them. AT the

DUBLIN, Dec. 20 Apart from the
demand by public bodies all over the
south of Ireland calling on their rep
resentatives in the Dali Eireann to
ratify the London treaty, there has
been strong pressure exerted upon
President de Valera to accept the
treaty. but according to information
from authoritative sources he is un-
bending in his determination to fight
ratification to The bitter end. At the
same time even his close supporters
admit the sentiment for ratification is
overwhelming among the Irish people
The report circulated in England
that De Valera and Arthur Griffith
had reached a compromise agreement
is altogether without foundation in
fact. Had vote been taken on the
question of ratifying the treaty before
the Dali adjourned the result probably
would have been in favor Of Mr.. Grif-
fifth and the forces for ratification by
a small majority. Now the country
wide demands that are being for
warded 10 members of the Dali that
they ratify the treaty are expected to
increase the moderate strength in the
Dali. -

campaign for ratification. These news
papers are giving space to everything in
support of their views, including articles
dealing with robberies and holdups in
the streets of these cities which lawless-
ness, the newspapers assert, will be
wiped out IL the treaty is ratified.
