VI EN NX. April 19. (By the Associ
ated Prees.) The communist govern
ment In Budapest, according to reports
received here. Is making desperate ef
forts to coerce the Ukranian govern
ment into giving free passage for Hun
garian agenta to and from Moscow by
way of Ukrania. To this end the Hun
garian government is closing to the
L'kraniana the passageway through
Northern Hungary to Vienna by way
of Budapest until tbe L'kranian govern
ment, yields to Its demand.
Premier Holubowicz of West Ukraine,
it Is believed, will make arrangements
with the Cxecho-Slovak government for
the passage of hia agents through Slo
vakia to Vienna. He Is reluctant, bow
ever, to force a break with the Hun
garians, as the L'kranlans get muni
tions from Hungary.

There Is always a depleted condition

from which recovery Is slow unless a

The lack of red corpuscles In the

nourish the body, and the general pros

progress toward health.

LONDON. April 21. (Special cable.)
John W. Davie, the new American
ambassador, being asked by a repre
sentatlve of the Daily Telegraph to
give his Impressions of his visit, on
Saturday, to Sulgrave manor, the an
cient home of the Washington family
In Northamptonshire, said:
'I have looked forward to seeing the
place where Washington's forefathers
lived in the fair English countryside.
Now thft I have made the pleasant
pilgrimage, I can say candidly that the
experience has delighted me beyond
measure."
'And what about the future of the
old manor?" asked the interviewer.
'Well, so long as a stone of it re
mains it should be a place dear in its
associations to all true Americans,
replied the ambassador. "Sulgrave
manor, skillfully and wisely restored,
should serve for generations to come
as the shrine around which those who
wish sincerely to foster friendship be-tm-cen
our nations may gather. It will.
1 feel sure, be a Mecca towards which
all Americans visiting this country will
turn their steps. The Idea of safe
guarding the existence of this tangible
tie between the two peoples is a splen
did one and I should like to think that
its present government will be fol
lowed by other efforts to foster asso

countries."

SHASTA LIMITED WANTED
Seattle People In ten lew nines as to
Getting Old Run Back.
SEATTLE. Wash., April 21. (Spe
cial.) While no definite promise was
made to restore the Shasta Limited, it
was apparent that railroad administra
tion officials here believe that the train
should be operated out of Seattle if
possible. The suggestion was made by
railroad operating officials that the
train be made to arrive in San Fran
cisco In the morning so that travelers
would not be compelled to lose a day's
time.
Objection to this arrangement has
been raised by southern California
travelers, but Director of .Traffic
Chambers believes that the bulk of the
travel between Seattle and California
is confined to business men and that
those going to southern California as
tourists can better afford to lose time
than can business men.
While no definite pledge was made
by either Director-General Hines or
Traffic Director Chambers, it waa be
lieved at the close of his conferences
here that the director-general is in
clined to grant the request if possible.

LONDON, Aprll. Twenty-eight
bolshevlki. Including one officer, were
captured by allied troops in the raid at
Seletskoe, on the Kadlsh front south
east of Archangel, on April 13, an of

office today says.
Many Killed, and Wounded.
Many of the enemy were killed and
several sleds, loaded with wounded,
were aeen moving away from the scene
of the fight.
ST. LOUIS, April 21. Declaration
that the allies must support Russia or
the world will lose the fruits of the
war is made in a cablegram received
here today from Major George W. Sim
mons of St. Louis, head of a special
American Red Cross mission to Russia
and Siberia, which has completed a 10
weeks' Investigation. The cablegram,
dated April 19, sent via Harbin, Man
churia, follows:
"With the Red Cross commission, I
have completed a 10 weeks' Investiga
tion penetrating far into European Rus
sia, the last six days in sleighs.
Bolshevism Ia Unrestrained.
"True bolshevism is unrestrained, with
murder, robbery and terrorism it en
deavors to exterminate the church, edu
cation and private ownership of prop
erty. No instance of constructive action
has been observed.
"The new Russian provisional govern
ment, led by Kolchak, is strongly
ascendant in western Siberia. Eastern
Russian people are accepting mobiliza
tion, heartily determined to destroy bol-
shevltm.
The retraatlnabolshevlkl have pil
laged hospitals, k411ing and deporting
doctors and nurses. The Russian army
is destitute of drugs, instruments or
dressings, except what the Red Cross
has been able to provide. The Ameri
can Red Cross has obtained magnifi
cent results and merits sympathetic
Support on an enlarged scale.
Support of Allies Urged.
'It Is Inconceivable that the allied
nations should treat with the irrespon
sible bolshevik!. Bolshevism must be
destroyed here to save civilization. Un
less the allies support Russia, the world
will lose the fruits of the war. With
German efficiency and Russia's natural
resources, Germany could soon recoup
her losses and again menace the
world."
LONDON. April 21. (By the Associ
ated Press.) Tha whole of the Ukraine
has been cleared of the troops of Gen
eral Petlura, the peasant leader, ac
cording to a Russian wireless message
received here. The soviet forces have
occupied Kamenetz-Podolsky, about
seventy miles southeast of Tarnopol,
and control the region at the mouth of
the Dniester river.
tho outset would have offered me the
opportunity to be heard," he said, "and
reasonable opportunity to have heard
those who share the views I hold.
"None of this did you do. Instead
you have Ignored me until the end of
me hearing, tou nave shut your eyes
and designed to regard me as an officer
of no special knowledge on -this sub
ject."
With a single .exception and "that
perhaps inadvertent," Colonel Ansell
said, "all the witnesses who had been
called were on the side of the war de
partment. Committee Declare Biased.
"It has been apparent to me ever
since the committee assembled," he
continued, "that you have taken up an
attitude of co-operation with the war
department."
He added that there had been fre
quent conferences between tbe com
mittee and the secretary .-of war, the
chief, of staff, the acting judge advo
cate-general and other officers whose
views were "notoriously" opposed to
those he held. The committee had
established such a relationship with
those defending the present system
"that those in opposition who pre
viously had been denied fair consider
ation" had little to expect.
Judge Gregory here interrupted to
ask from what source Colonel Anseu
got his Information as to the commit
tee's activities, declaring the officer's
statements were "entirely inaccurate.
Proceeding with his statement. Colonel
Ansell said the 'Witnesses appearing
before he committee had been sum
moned "in a way that precludes mere
coincidence." He declared three major
generals summoned in one day Wood,
Scott and Chamberlain entertained
views so fully known that their testi
mony was a foregone conclusion. It
was "the harsh action" of one of them,
be said, which led him as acting judge
advocate-general to recommend recre
ation of theVlemehcy board now func
tioning, whil another ' had "a national
reputation f severity."
It was brought out that former secre
taries of war have been invited to sub
mit their views to the committee and
that Senator Chamberlain, loading
criUc in congress of the military jus
tice .system, also had been asked to
make such presentation as he saw fit.
Colonel Ansell charged that the opin
ions of "officers out of uniform" were
the only ones that could be sought with
reliance, as the military machine pre
vented men in the service from speak
ing frankly, either through fear of
discipline or because the machine had
"induced compliance with its views."

the officer said the fact that the com
mittee "at this rather late date" had
asked him to appear waa significant
to him. He expressed regret that the
committee did not call htm sooner In
order that he might have better pre
pared the case he desired to present.

said, "is not being best served by the
method of Investigation pursued by
this committee, but, on the contrary,

HEN apparently the council of
four was ready to take decisive
action on the Italian claims in the
Adriatic, including the coast, islands
and Fiume, the Italian delegates.
Premier Orlando and Foreign Minister
Sonnfno, failed to appear at -Monday
afternoon's session. These ministers
had discussed the problem Insistently
with Premier Clemenceau and Premier
Lloyd George earlier in the day, and
for the purpose of bringing the matter
to climax. President Wilson attended
the afternoon session.
It was then expected that the ques
tion, which up to that time was con
sidered almost insurmountable, would
be decided, but owing to the absence of
the Italian delegates, discussion of the
Italian claims was dispensed with.- It
It is announced that the council- will
take no further action on the question
pending Information as to the future
course of the Italians.
That there is no immediate prospect
that the impasse is to be breached
without further argument possibly Is
Indicated by an official announcement
that the convening of the Italian par
liament which was to have taken place
Wednesday and before which Premier
Orlando and Foreign Minister Sonnino
hoped to place the facts accomplished,
has been postponed for two weeks
from next Wednesday until May (.
Germany has accepted all the con
ditions of the allies with respect to
the Versailles conference. A delay of
three days is in prospect for the meet
ing at Versailles between the repre
sentatives of the allied and associated
powers and the German delegates for
the delivery to the Germans of the al
lied peace terms. The German delega
tion. Marshal Foch has been Informed,
cannot reach Versailles until April 28.
Originally they were invited to be
there April 26.
The three days delay possibly may
be of benefit to the allies in complet
ing the draft of the lengthy peace
document, which is said to approxi
mate 100,000 words. Some doubt has
been expressed that the allies would be
able to give the Germans more than a
summaryof their peace conditions at
the first meerrng at Versailles owing to
the length of the documents.
Talking of the German government
sending merely "messengers" at Ver
sailles to receive the peace treaty is
discounted by official information re-
