Coalition Government.
(Br United Prai to The Bend Bulletin.)
PARIS, Nov. 30. America Is In
sisting that the allies adopt a more
sympathetic policy toward Russia
America is not inclined to view Rus
sia soU-ly from the viewpoint ot the
aid the Slavs might have given the
allied cause, and would oppose seeing
Russia fettered with the shackles ot
despotism.
The United Press was Informed
authoritatively' today that the Amer
ican commission presented .this atti
tude most clearly to an inter-allied
conference. Russia is foremost In the
minds of the conferees.
SLAVS WARNED.
STOCKHOLM, Nov. 30. Allied
military officials, with the exception
of Americans, have formally warned
the Bolshevik! authorities in Russia
that the country has ruthlessly
thrown aside the obligations of Its
treaty in negotiating an armistice anal
separate peace. The messages from
the allies warned Russia that viola
tions of this pledge may cause ser
ious consequences. Omission of
American signatures on the state
ments man indicate that the- Presi
dent has refused to interfere with in
ternal affairs in Russia which do not
directly Involve the United States.
The Russian press declares that
Kerensky is in hiding in Finland.
