TIIE MORNING OltEGONIAN, FRIDAY, JULY 26, 1018. ALLIES WILL FIGHT TO FREE RUSSIA I pomplete : Agreement Reached on Programme for ArmecJ Intervention. ' taERMANS.TO BE EXPELLED Tapan Will Furnish Most or Military Forces Employed All Troops to Be Withdrawn at Con ' elusion of War. BT ARTHUR BEARS HENNING. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 25. ' K Special.) Complete agreement has been, reached by the United States with .Japan and the entente allies upon a I plan of intervention In Russia to assist the Russian people and to expel the ! Hun. President Wilson has received the re ply from the Japanese government ac cepting: the American proposals. The ' agreement includes the following- pre visions: Japan wity furnish the major portion of the military forces. The United States and the entente ' allies also will be represented by mili tary forces. The United States undertakes to- fur , nisli economic assistance to Russia on a vast scale. The troops of Japan and all allied nations will be withdrawn from Russia, ' Including Siberia, on the conclusion, of the war. The agreement follows three months of negotiations among- the allies, but principally between Washington and Tokio. BolsheTtk Threats Ignored. Mr. Wilsen conferred on the matter with Acting Secretary of State Polk today. Neither the United States nor the allies will be deterred from the step they are about to take by the threats of Bolshevikl against the anti-German alliance. Lenlne's pronunciamento that the landing- of allied forces on the Murman coast constitutes an act of war and that the Russian government will act ac cordingly caused no surprise in Wash ington. There have been rumors for several days that the Bolshevikl were about to make such a declaration, which of ficials here believe was inspired by the Germans. The original protest of the Bolshevikl on the landing- of allied troops at Kola and the occupation of the peninsula reached the State Department several weeks ago, but no attention was paid to it because the United States has not recognized the Bolshevik government. Enmity to be Disavowed, . So far as Bolshevik enmity to the allies is concerned the President is con fident that the answer to be given Russia will disarm suspicion and cause a revulsion of sentiment throughout the republic against these elements dominated by Germany. It was learned on high authority that while the situation created by the activities of 64,000 Czecho-Slovak sol diers scattered across Siberia and Into European Russia as far as Samara modified the position of the allied na tions, the allied expedition will be Dri marily in the interests of Russia and the relief to the Czecho-Slovak troops win De merely an incident.

SAILORS TO BE RELIEVED Living Conditions of 3 00 Interned In Germany Reported Bad. WASHINGTON, July 25. Immediate relief for mora than 300 American sea men Interned in Germany was promised today by the Shipping- Board after re ceiving- authenticated reports that their living conditions are bad and that they are suilerlng- from lack of funds. btate Department funds for the reuet or interned Americans show a deficit, eo the Shipping- Board plans to continue the allowances formerly maae to the seamen. British officers receive 100 marks monm ana tne Americans will be as -eil supplied, probably through the Red Cross which also is sending regu larly packages of food, clothing and toDacco. ALLIED GUNS ELECTRIFY (Continued From Flrat Pug-.) serves and concentrated artillery to prevent movement at this point or at its counterpart, near Eoissons. where the western jaw had already been driven ahead in a week's fighting and now faces German reserves assembled from the whole battle line. Should the Franco-British forces be able to enlarge their advance mate rially, tlie great trap might be finally sprung by final overwhelming- blows on both sides. In that event, allied vic tories pictured in tonights rumors might well be realized. Ewapi Northward Possible. To the cool Judgment of artillery of (leers, however, the situation does not warrant on the basis of any informa tion available at a late hour tonight the assumption that the time had come when the jaws of Foch's great vise might be crushed together. Knowing what they do of the strength of the Germans massed to hold back the menacing- flank attacks, they believed it entirely possible for the enemy to escape northward. The situation cannot be clearly gauged until further information is re ceived as to the Franco-British opera tions west of Rheims. If the attack is pressed successfully, it seems im possible that the enemy can stabilize his lines south of the Aisne. BmaumBi II T , ' S u:- i !

Never a tag day in the history of the city met with such instant re sponse, and within a few hours the ma jority of pedestrians were ticketed for the cause of kindliness- Estimates of the sum raised by the forget-me-not" sales range from $10, 06 to $15,000, but owing to the rush rith which the sales work went for ward the committee in charge di4 not attempt to cast-up the cash total last night, contenting themselves wih plac ing the big sacks of small change safely behind bolt and bar. 26,000 Finn Said by Noam. At noon the sales forces reported back from their stations on the streets. with every one of 26,000 floral favors disposed of. This alone brought to the fund over $7000, it is estimated, and was the amount of favors provided in anticipation of the full day's sales. Workers at the assembly room of the Portland Hotel, where headquarters were established, turned at once to the task of constructing new favors of forget-me-nots and Belgian colors, and exhausted the local supply of material. Twenty thousand additional favors were made and turned over to the sales forces, and late last night practically all of these had been sold. The fair crusaders who took such heavy toll of Portland's pocketbook were happy at a thousand incidents of interest and encouragement each of which demonstrates how thoroughly the city's heart is enlisted for the babies of Belgium. Iron Workers Sincere. At the Smith & Watson Iron Works many of the men were without the necessary small change when Mrs. D. C. Gala approached them with forget- me-nots. They were sincere in their protestations that they would buy when the paychecks were cashed. But the worker was not to be put off. She found some capitalist who admitted having )5 in change and escorted hint around the foundry, pressing loans upon the others for the purchase. From his perch on the fourth story of a new building a workman tossed silver dollar to another young worn an, JoKingly requesting his change. Nothing daunted, she clambered up the swaying ladders and complied with the request. In the rally at Liberty Temple at noon, the workers and many citizens were addressed by Colonel John Leader, late of the Royal Irish Rifles, who spoke of the importance of the cause they were championing and who con trived to make his talk both spirited and appealing. The crowd chered lustily when the Multnomah Guard Band, directed by Lieutenant W. A. McDougall. played several patriotic selections. Led by its drum major, Sergeant Freiberg, the big military musical organisation marched to the Temple and did its bit for Bet gium, as it is pledged to do for ail pa triotic causes. Ninth District Exceeds Qoota. The Ninth District organization. which won its spurs In the recent war stamp drive, under the direction of Ferdinand E. Reed, turned 159 workers into yesterday's campaign and sold S1672.60 worth of favors. Six thousand favors was the number apportioned to these workers, and at 25 cents apiece the receipt would have been J1500.

(Special.) Mrs. Ethel Scott, alleged to have swin dled Eugene merchants of about $100 through worthless check operation last week, visited Marshfield after leaving this city and forged a check for $50, according to disclosures today. Mrs. Scott, who stated that she came from Corvallis, was employed three weeks in the office of Attorney L. M. Travis, working as a substitute while regular etenographers were given va cations. The check cashed at Marsh- field was payable to L. M. Travis. It is alleged that Mrs. Scott, before leav ing Eugene, took the check from the mail in Travis' office. When it was i shed at Marshfield it had been changed to read "Louise M. Travisum." Mrs. Scott, after cashing checks in Eugene, wrote letters to the merchant in each case, stating that she had found that her funds were tangled and asking that the check be held.
