From the most. direct’ sources I have learned the real story, now told for the first time in America, of the cause of this uprising. Mirbach, as Germany’s representa- tive, demanded that the Soviets at Pensa not only disarm but imprison |the Czecho-Slovaks. The Czecho-Slovaks sent a delega- tion to the local Sovie#thairman, Ku- rayeff, protesting against such action. Kurayeff insisted that the order be carried out, whereupon the Czecho- Slovaks with their bare hands liter- ally wiped out the local Bolsheviki and Red Guards. Then the Czecho-Slovaks called a meeting of representatives of all democratic Socialist parties, reported on the action they had taken ‘and showed documents proving Mirbach’s participation in the plot against the Czheco-Slovaks. The meeting echo-Slovaks’ closed \ with tHe promise to leave the city, which they did, taking arms and ammunition. sheviki reinforce- ments arrived the next day and pro- claimed an alleged defeat of the} Czecho-Slovak force. Repressions were increased among the local popu- lation. All Bolsheviki talk about a de on the part of the Czecho-Slovaks for a counter revolution is but an arro- gant lie. These people have no des’ to interfere with the internal situa tion in Russia, and resorted to \vio- lence only when maddened by the contemptible Bolsheviki surrender to Mirbach’s demand. ae! 1 Year Aga Todau in War l| I Year Ago Today in War | Copter von Waldow s succeeded = @atocki as Food Controller in Ger- many. r Canadian troops seized’ Hill dominating Lens from the morthwest.

He has submitted his idea to the invention department of the min- istry of munitions. Another patriot charges nothing for the suggestion that a fleet of balloons, carrying powerful magnets attached to cables, be sent over the German armies. You don't see? Why the magnets will pull the guns out of the Heinies’ hands, and the tin hats off their heads, of course. Then the Allies will just turn loose a little shrapnel upon the unarmed and un- covered hosts of Hohenzollern, and the war will be over. That's the idea. end the war.
