DEMAND FOR THIRD INTERNA-

SPLIT IN THE RANKS.

Little Too Radical for the Fol-
lowers Of Socialists Doctrines
in the United States.

New York.--NicOlai Lenine's ulti-
matum to the socialists of the world,
giving them the "21 conditions" to
which they must subscribe before they
can be received into the Third or
Communist International of Moscow,
has met with widespread, IL in many
eases negative, response. 1t Indicates
decided split in the ranks of the
socialist party in many countries,
Judging by reports from abroad.
Lenine demanded, among other
things, that socialist organizations
must purge themselves of all moder-
0tes, defy all national laws, undermine
armies, gain control of the press,
throw off the allied yoke" promote a
world economic crisis, condemn any
league of nations, aid the soviet gov
eminent and abandon for the blood and
fire Of red revolution" all conserva-
tive social democratic programs.
The national executive committee of
socialist party of America, in refusing
to recommend affiliation, said: 1--WE
concede to the Russian comrades the
right to formulate their own internal
policies without interference from any
other section of the working class
movement of the world. What we
concede to them we claim for our
selves. Every resolution adopted by
our party implies or Claims this right
for the American movement"
In France the socialists split into
three factions following convention at
Tours on December 20, at which mo
ton by the Left Wing to join the Third
International without reservations
received 32O8 votes, winning by large
majority. The center and right groups
oppose the elimination of conservative
leaders.

DISARMAMENT PLAN
IS GIVEN A HEARING
SUPREME COUNCIL coNFERs
REGARDING THE FAILURE OF
GERMANY TO pIsARM.
The EVentuaIlty Of a German Sitting
With the Council Hinges Upon
Action Of Representatives Re-
garding Vexed Question.

Paris.-The supreme council, COM
posed Of representatives of Great
Britain, Italy, France, Belgium and
Japan, on January "a heard the mill
tary experts and later conferred to-
gether regarding the failure of Ger
many to disarm as provided for by the
treaty of Versailles. The experts were
asked to make q detailed report on
the subject, with recommendations re-
garding measures to insure execution
Of the disarmament clauses of the
treaty.
The British prime minister. David
Lloyd George, and the president of the
French council, Aristide BRAND, 1t is
understood, desire an opportunity to
talk over the different phases of the
PREPARATIONS question before the sub
ject comes up for discussion at the
full council. Thus the change in the
councils program.
In this connection the premiers are
said to be considering whether it is
feasible and advisable to have the
German representatives sit with the
council before the final decision on
separations Is taken. The British
delegation is believed to favor invit-
ing the Germans to take part in the
discussion after the allies come to an
understanding among themselves.
Pending decision on this ques-
tion, Herr Bergman, the German
delegate, it Is expected, will confer
with Louis Loucheur, the French min
lister OF liberated regions, and it is re-
ported he will make an official offer
to pay two billion marks in gold with
in d year, one-fourth Of that amount
in cash.
The eventuality of a German being
invited to sit with the council de-
ponds partly upon Herr Bergmann's
reply to M. Loucheur, who will ask
him If Germany has any proposition
to make before the allies shall decide
finally upon what course they shall
pursue to enforce execution Of the
treaty.
The premiers are understood to be
greatly alarmed at the situation Of
Austria and will endeavor to find some
way for the continued existence OF
that country. The eastern question,
Greece and the treaty of Sevres will
be taken up after the council has fin
ished considering the Austrian sltu-
alton.
Resumption Of trade relations with
Russia by the allied governments,
which would entail sort of condi-
tional recognition of the soviet regime
in Moscow, appeared to be "a topic
which will be discussed seriously in
the next week.

MUST TAKE CARE or OUR OWN

France invites United States to Re-
move DereIlcts From That Country.
W4shington.-France has asked the
United States to remove the derelicts
of the United States In Paris and
elsewhere in France who have made
home with the local criminal classes.
The French secret service and po-
lice service are to cooperate with the
American army on the Rhine and with
the United States military attaches at
Paris to get these missing men back to
the United States. Any identified ex-
service man arrested In Paris will be
sent to General Aliens headquarters
at CoDlenz for transportation home.
The request includes suggestion
also that soldiers who for any rea-
SON have become a public burden In
that country should be depOrted.
The work is to be commenced by
the war department sending to the
French government as complete a list
as possible of disappearances. These
belong to two classes, those who
actually deserted in France and those
who have been reported as missing In
action.

WILSON HOPES FOR
PEACE FOR RUSSIA
PRESIDENTIAL ACTION IN AID
OF ARMENIA CONDITIONED
ON TRUCE.

son as the sine qua non of an attempt
at the pacification of Armenia and
other states bordering on the former
empire.
His views are given in a note trans
mitted to Paul Hymans, president OF
the league of nations assembly, BY
acting Secretary of State Davis, made
public January %.
The "distressful situation" of Ar
meEia, invaded by both the Turkish
nationalist and the soviets, is only
one detail Of the Russian problem.
the president says, and he urges his
conviction that 1t is only by a general
and comprehensive treatment of the
problem, "only by full cooperation Of
the principal powers" that a hopeful
approach to the qualification and indie.
pendenee of Armenia can be found.
The president says he has never
believed that the problems raised by
the bolshevik coup could be solved
by outside military actions, and he
expresses the hope, that the tragicai
events on the Polish front and in the
Crimea have convinced the world
that armed invasion is not the way to
bring peace to Russia.
Settlement Within.
MIR. Wilson adds that these events
have only strengthened his convictions
that the Russian revolution must be
developed to a satisfactory conclusion
by the Russians, with such help as
may be voluntarily received"
The problem, he says, is one of re-
lations between central Russian and
surrounding smaller national groups.
Bitter and mutual distrust, he states,
Is the cause Of the unrest and instabil-
ity along the border; the struggling
new nationalities are afraid to disarm
and return to peace, because they dis
trust the bolsheviki, while the soviets
contend they are afraid to demObilize,
fearing new attacks.
Time Propitious.
Mr. Wilson expresses the opinion
that the present offers peculiarly
pressing challenge" to an attempt at
general qualification on the Russian
borders along the lines of clear dis.
tinction between offense and defense.
Such an attempt seems to the presi-
dent 90 be the only logical develop
ment of the request to mediate in the
Armenian conflict. It IS OBJ
vious that these small, struggling Dor
der states will not attack great Rus
STA unless encouraged by promise OF
support from the stronger powers, =
the note says.
Would Fix Responsibility.
The president suggests a public and
solemn" declaration among the powers
to refrain from extending such aid,
declaring that in this way responsible
ity for any new war ON the Russian
border would be clearly placed"
If the principal powers represented
on the council Of the league" Mr..
Wilson concludes, "find themselves in
accord with the president, and viii as
sure him of their moral and diplomatic
support, he will instruct his personal
representative Mr.. Morganthau. to
proceed on his mission"
