NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS German Convulsions Reveal the Spirit of Revolt With Military Resources Still Large* RED ARMIES ATTACK POLAND Fighting Bevere With Poles Showing Splendid Spirit—lslamic Situation an Anxious One—Peace Treaty j. and Democratic Platform— Higher Coal Prices. By E. F. CLIPSON. Germany's convulsions reveal a dot bed of revolt. Although the treaty of Versailles aimed to thoroughly cripple the nation In a military sense, reduc ing Its army to only sufficient strength for Internal needs, It could not stamp out the heritage of long years of mili tarism. Germany Is no less a nation of soldiers today than It was In 1918. These soldiers, bred under, an arrogant system and trained to kill, have been exhibiting in full measure the results of their teaching, even though It Is a light of brother against brother. Ger many was disarmed in the larger sense, but the 4llles, as they did not occupy the country, could not reach the Immense stock of smaller cannon, rifles and ammunition, mlnenwerfers, flammenwerfers, etc. Events since the •.overthrow of the Kapp revolution in dicate that each peasant has arms and the ability to use them. Civil war woyld be In full blast If the various groups did not lack cohesion. The Ebert government, displaced for five days by the Kapp revolution and then suddenly confronted by a coun ter-revolt of radicals Instituted during the general chaos, appears to be slow ly struggling back to authority. The crisis has not entirely pnssed, but an easing of the situation Is lndlcuted. This is especially true in Saxony and some other states where socialism Is Strong but where the moderate social ists seem to have prevailed for the ttme'being at least, over the radicals. Conditions have been most acute In the districts bordering the east hank of the Rhine, especially in the Ruhr basin, or coal mining region. This area has been occupied by the Hparta ddes, bolshevists, communists or whatever one chooses to call them, the occupation being by a large, well armed and effective force. The town of Wescl, an Industrial and railroad center of great strategic importance, has been besieged. Inasmuch as most of the coal comes from the Ruhr, oc cupation of it and complete cessation of mining operations for a period of ten days would be sufficient to stop all industry In Germany. Ebert has been forced to treat with the belligerents to the point of making Important conces sions. The affected area Is pretty well hemmed In by the allied armies on the west, Holland on the north and gov ernment forces east and south. The principal weapon of the radicals has been their ability to prevent the pro duction of coal. Never since the armistice of Novem ber, 1018, has there been greater need for a united front and united action amopg the allies. Unfortunately unison Is not apparent. The alliance so pow erful during the war, and which was to work great principles for the bet terment of the world, shows signs of disintegration. America has refused to ratify the treaty on account of the League of Nations covenant. Gr«at Britain and Italy are pursuing alms of their own. France is charged with Im perialistic designs. Belgium is less friendly with France and England oo account of what she regards as unfair treatment In the Holland settlement France may be Imperialistic, but the case Is not yet proven. She Is at least consistent In regard to the treaty of Versailles and the only one of the allies completely consistent. The treaty was put Into effect with a loud blare from all concerned that It would be upheld. Should France be criticised for demanding that Germany live up to tho pactT It Is a time for the sinking of dif ferences, for unselfish cooperation tad the wisest statesmanship. Ger many scotched the Spartaclde menace ' last year, but did not kill it. The Kapp revolution was suppressed, but left a long attendant train of evils. The present trouble is more stubborn and may yet go entirely out of band. The next convulaloo may be uncontrollable. All Germany and all factions are emitting a loud wall over the terms of the peace treaty, stating that It en forces economic slavery on the nation and Is at the bottom of the spirit of re volt. la to Germany's interest to muko the claim. The limn worsted In a fight and all wrongdoers seek an amelioration of the consequences of their acts. A negative light on the question of economic slavery is the action In a recent plebiscite of a por tion of Schleswtg. The town of Ton dern, some other nearby towns and a considerable adjacent area, given un opportunity to Join Denmark, where conditions are normal and taxation light, voted to stay with Germany. It Is not apparent that tliese people viewed the prospect of Industrial serv itude as very serious. Germany's 'throes have been nc i composed with much bloodshed. ! Complete figures are not available. Estimates of deaths from the revolt and following troubles range between 5,000 nnd 12,000. Earlier casualties were heaviest at Leipslc, where anar chy reigned after an attempt to Insti tute sovletlsm. Much loss of life oc curred at Berlin, Dusiselilorf, Elberfeid and Essen. Russian soviet armies are engaged In the long-planned spring attack on Poland. The campulgn has "been, launched on a 400-mlle front, but the action lias not been general. Tlie bol shevists are using heavy artillery, armored cars other appa ratus captured from General Denlklne on the south Russian front. Previous repulses of the enemy have been for tunate for the Poles, as they have heartened the soldiers to a determined resistance and have affected some what the morale of the Russians. Nevertheless, the engagements have been severe, especially in the vicinity of Kovno, Kamenetz-Podolsk, Rzecy cza, Kalenkowltz, Zaslava and Staro- Konstantlnow. At the latter point, and In the vicinity of Ruhar and Os tropol, the reds endeavored to force crossings of the Slutch river. Kovno Is an Important railroad center and Knmenetz-Podolsk Is valuable on ac count of Its strategic Importance. The Polish resistance seems to have been effective at most points, although the army Is under heavy difficulties, due to Incomplete equipment and lack of commissary and medical supplies. Advices state, however, that the splen did spirit of the Poles Is everywhere evident. Just how important Is the bolshevik campaign remains to be seen. Indica tions are not lacking that It Is a part of a general movement of- which the German radical uprisings and disturb ances In other portions of Europe are a part, and timed In consonance. Other Indications point to a strong demonstration to affect the various peace negotiations which the reds are carrying on with other nations. Peace, or at least nn understanding with Great Britain and Italy, has been an active probability. A solid pact guaranteeing a cessation of hostilities between the bolshevists on one side and Poland, Letvla, Finland and Itou manla on the other, has been delayed by the German revolt. A demonstra tion In force at this time might shorten the delay and force a consummation favorable to the reds. In the darkness of Russian ecents and Lenine's de signs nothing Is very clear at this time. Anxiety has not decreased over the Islamic situation. Fighting spreads from Thrace through Anatolia to Ara bia. Semi-official French reports as sert the revolt Is connected with Ger man events. In Thrace the Turks are In open revolt and defiance against the allies. Greek troops oppose them. In Anatolia Italian troops have met a re verse at the hands of Mustupha Ke mal. In Clllcla and upper Syria the French are more thnn holding their own against the Turkish nationals. Mustapha Kemal and his supporters are supreme In the greater part of the Interior of Asia Minor. British dread naughts line the Bosporus and British troops occupy Constantinople, thus dominating the center of events and preventing for the time being, at least, complete co-operation between the various units of the nationalistic revolt. The sultan Is powerless, but the revolutionaries take little account of him, asserting that he has been guilty of treachery and lacks courage. The nationalistic movement claims au- in Its opigmltlon to the dis memberment of Turkey. Our government's reply to a request of the allied powers for President Wilson's views does not accord In all respects with the tentative proposal for settlement of the Turkish question. As> stated, the view of the United States government Is that there Is no danger of a general Mohammedan up rising If the sultan Is put out Of Con stantinople; that Armenia should be accorded liberal treatment In the mat ter of territory. Including un outlet trt the sea; that no government should have «i paramount Interest In the de velopment of Turkish territory merely because such government was a bel ligerent and that the Dardanelles should be administered by an Inter- GRAHAM, N. C., THURSDAY. APRIL 1. 19550 I national *bo3y'on'which'a place shourd j be reserved for Russia when that country Is Anally rehabilitated. The i tentative plan of settlement as ad ! vanced by the allies was for certain | definite dominating influence* by other powers and laid stress upon the dan ger of n general Moslem uprising lit sympathy with Turkey. The note of the United States asserts that the other Moslem people have nothing In common with Turkey and contributed to the defeat of the Turks In the war. Senator Knox's resolution to de clare the war with Germany at an end did not get before the senate so soon after the defeat of the peace treaty as was anticipated. Some changes In the resolution and a smoothing out of dlincuHleg were found necessary. A question has also been advanced as to the constitutionality of ending a war by declaration. Unless Internal con ditions In Germany should render It Inadvisable, it is scarcely doubted that a majority will be secured and the res olution passed, .thus ending the theo retical state of hostility and permit ting the resumption of trade and dip lomatic relations with Germany. Meanwhile It is not certnin thnt the defeated treaty will become openly and squarely an Issue for the next campaign. If President Wilson can se cure the adoption of a plank In the platform at San Francisco declaring for ratification without changing the League of .Nations covenant it will b« a campaign Issue. But the same oppo sition which developed In his own party and prevented ratification of the treaty In accordance with his program, Is likely to prevent the adoption of ■ platform plank to his liking. v rii« treaty Is sure to be a big talking Issue In the campaign, but may not be an official platform Issue. No escape from higher coal prices seems possible; Incidentally another strike of miners Is not outside the range of probabilities. President WIU son has ordered termination of gov ernment price control on April 1 and lins asked miners and operators to na. gotlate a new working agreement on the basis of the majority report of the coal strike settlement commission. Tills will permit n partial absorption In coal prices of the 27 per cent wage Increase recommended In the report Also the Increased freight rates which the interstate commerce commission Is expected to grant will be taken care of In an Increased price for coal. Dan ger of a strike arises from the fact of the expiring contract between miners und operators, which also terminate* at the same time as government price control. Anthracite miners have shown a disposition not to tHke action until a new contract can be considered. In the bituminous field the conciliatory spirit Is not so evident. Trouble looms for Henry Kord and his active supporters, If the recom mendation Is adopted of Governor Al bert A. Sleeper of Mi'-ttgnn, that the campnlgn of the loser In the senatorial fight of 1018 be Investigate*]. Senator Newberry, the winner, with lfl co-de fendants were recently found guilty of conspiracy to defeat the election law* of the atate.
