Moscow Warns
All Russia of

Possibility of Clash With
Poland and Rumania Is
Suggested by Trotzky and

French Duplicity Charged
Proof That Warsaw Aided
Savinkoff Is Claimed by
Soviet Foreign Office

RIGA, Sept 10 (By The Associated
Press) Dispatches from official Rus.
sian news sources reaching Riga to-
day indicate that the entire population
OF Russia is being warned of the pos
sibility of a new war with Poland and
Rumania.
"hiie the various Russian govern
ment newspapers, such as the "Pravda. -
make no positive predictions of war.
their leading editorial articles reiterate
the charge that the French and the
Poles are aiding General Boris Savin-
koff, one Of the Bolshevik leaders
IN Southwest Russia, who is accused
of directing bandits interfering with
food supplies.
The Rosta News Agency to-day car
rled extracts from a speech made to
the Odessa Soviet by Leon Trotzkv. the
Bolshevlk Minister of War. who is in
the Ukraine arranging military affairs
Trotzky Accuses Rumania
"Rumania is forming bands of the
followers of General Petlura for the
purpose of seizing the Kamenets. Po-
aolsk and Moghilev Districts said
Trotzky "We do not want war. but
we must safeguard our southwestern
frontier. We say to the world that
we are sufficiently strong to defeat our
enemies, and that if any one dares to
push, the frontier will not be where
1T Is to-day"
The "Pravda," in an editorial in con
nection with the charge that France is
pressing Poland and Rumania to make
war on Russia, says:
lit is hardly believable that the po-
llsh government has decided on new
war, but if it so decides then will come
true the words that he who raises the
sword will perish by the sword"
Foreign Office Claims Proof
The Rosta Agency says the Russian
Foreign Office announces an additional
expose of the Polish General Staff's
alleged assistance to General savin-
koff, both in money and in arms. for
guerrilla warfare. Documents and pho
tographs in the hands of the Foreign

leave the slightest doubt that the

prominent in the congregation Of

Roach Straton to the church as pastor,
last night denounced DIR. Straton for his
"salacious and sensational" sermons
He said that his views regarding the
pastor were shared by two hundred OF
the leading financial supporters of the

used $4,000 more for church purposes
than was contributed to the church
and that no harmony can possibly
exist in the church during the time
that he occupies the pulpit.
DR.. Macarthur Takes Action
The attack of Mr.. Leask on the
pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church
followed the request made by DR., Rob.
ert Stuart Macarthur that his name
be omitted as pastor emeritus from the
church calendar.
DR.. Straton last night replied to this
request, issuing statement in which
he said that he would have the name

Mr.. Leask said that the 200 persons
for whom he was speaking were the
real financial hackers Of the church
the people who had the welfare of the
church at heart, and that they were
being unchurched because of the pas

Sensationalism Denounced
The church members, Mr.. Leask de-
clared, object to DR.. Straton's manner
of speech as we'll as the subjects upon
which he speaks. He declared that
the pastor has made it his plan to
