PARTS. Mav C (Bv the Asso
ciated Press.) Specialists on litis-
sian subjects, attached to various al
lied delegations at the pence confer
ence, exiiect decided changes in the
Hussion situation within the next few
weeks. . .
The Finnish military movement
which has been threatening Petrograd
and which has been shrouded with
mvsterv. is now well defined. Gen
eral Udenitch und four . thousand
Russians operating with him have
the support of the Finnish govern
ment and troops, and have recruited
large numbers of Russian peasants
who have become tired of Bolshevik
reouisitions. General I denitch con
tro's Ihc southern end of the Kola
railway. ,The escape of. the Bolshe
viki oncrutine against Allied forces
in the Kola peninsula has been made
impossible and communication .be
tween thein and the Moscow govern
ment and the Miinnaa coast ling been
cut off under the direction of
Genernl Udeniteh.. the , residents, of
the Karelia district are apparently
nreimring to launch a movement look-
'mr to their, annexation to Finland.
This ' would give Finland' the Kola
railwav nnd a northern outlet to the
Arctic ' .
'. ' Mock Finn Plan f
I The Russian committee ' working
for a united Russia here is' trvins to
block thnt step. Munv persons be-
lieve'that the entente powers are en
couruging the Udenitch movement.
If he should occupy- Petrograd. the
reviet milling the citv bv the allies
would be easy and the apparent
abandonment of the Nansen plan of
revietuallne Pctroerad under neutral
auspices is regarded as an indicntion
that the entente expects the Bolsbe-
viki soon to be. forced to withdraw
to Moscow.
Kolchak Is Advancing :
Admiral Kolehak's. Siberian army
continues its movement westward to
ward the Volga and it is expected
that the cities of Viatka and Samra
will fall into their hands soon. With
Kolchak threatening the valley of the
Volgu and Udenitch menacing Pet
rograd. with Kiev lin the hands of
nnti-Rolshevik troops nnd with Kol-
chnk's northern nrmv moving rapidly
toward the line of communication
between Moscow and Archangel, the
Bolshevik military situation seems
extremely precarious.
Disregarding recommendations of
M. Zinovieff. governor of Petrograd.
Nikolai Lenine. Russian Bolshevik
premier, reecnllv has been releasing
virtually all political prisoners in an
effort to show that tho government
is becoming more tolerant. Ono re
sult of this step, it is believed bv spe
cialists here may be to produce, n
lender who will ultimately! organize
opposition to the present regime.
Chas. L. -Homes of Ashland, was tn
Medford Monday on business. - :
tion have left Versailles, .but. that
peace negotiations win continue."
: There has been no intimation from
Paris that the German's were de
manding immediatV action or that
any delegates have loft.
Meanwhile, the League of Nations
has proceeded further with Its organ-
lzation. At the meeting of the- or
ganization committee yesterday, Ste
phen Pichon, French foreign minister
was elected chairman ot the provis
ional organization. At the same time
Sir Eric Drummond assumed his du
ties as acting secretary-general.
The power of the soviet govern
ment in Budapest seems to be crum
bling rapidly. Czech troops are said
to be only twenty miles away.
, VYiitb the circles of ahtt-BolshevIk
forces rapidly closing In from the
southeast, east, northeast and north,
the Bolshevik government ot Russia
alBO appears to bo hard pressed. Rus
sian and Finnish troops operating
east ot Lake Ladoga have cut oft the
retreat ot sovlot forces further north
and have severed ' communications
between Moscow and the Kola penin
