TROTSKY, LENIN SILENT Possibilities of sn Early Clash, However, Are Pointed Out by Newspapers. By the Associated Pres 5 MOSCOW, January 25.—The Russian ! press continues to warn Poland and th, public that Russia might be drawn into a* European war if Poland attacked Germany. However, if the hLigher government officlals are worrled over the possibility of & copflict, they do not display thelr apprehension. M. Trotsky, after spend- ing a week in the country, returned to Moscow yesterday and plunged into in- ternal rather than international affairs. He even took time for an English les- son and did not inspect the troops, as the gossips declared. Premier Lenin, in an article published by Izvestia today, does not mention the Rubr situation, addressing himself only to problems of domestic reconstruction. i Attitude of Watchfulness. | The foreign ofice indicates that the j warnings to Poland have been issued {only by the press and that no notes | have been sent to that nation. Rubsia, | nevertheless, malintains & watchful { attitude. | “If, under some pretext, the Polish imperfalists should decide that the opportune moment had arrived for beginning military action, then So- vietia, for all its stfivings for peace, 1 would not be able to allow the Polish jimperialists to master eastern Europe, as they wis says Izvestia. quite clear at the laboring masses of Russia do not feel any special sympathy toward the German bour- geolse government and still less to- ward its reactionary elements. How- ever, in our own life Interests we cannot allow the total suppression and ruination of Germany by the !unlun of France and her vassais.” ‘WAR CONTINUES TOPIC. By Cable to ‘The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1928, MOSCOW, January 25.—Russla con- tinues to discuss the possibility of an early war, with Poland as the im- mediate enemy. The Izvestia pub- lishes an unofficlal Polish plan for the dismemberment of Russia, and it points out the dangers which will ensue if Russia permits the throt- thng of Germany. This will muke France Russia’s immediate neighbor, and thus render a fresh military in- j vasion possible. The situation in eastern Europe depends much on the position Poland elects to adopt. The paper warns Poland against reckon- ing upon a diminution of the Russian army. { The unofficial Polish plan was pre- i pared by Dr. Dumbrovsky, whom ihe |Tzvestia describes us very well known. Much of this plan is mere nonsense, but it serves to excite the people here. Dumbrovsky declare. “We fdce an alliance between Ger- many and Russia and between France and Poland. Germany and Russia de- sire to wipe Poland out again or fo make it powerless. Poland should aim to weaken soviet Russia by di- viding it i Poland’s Probable Allies. The doctor suggests that Poland, in case of war, would have the sup- port of Lithuania, Roumania, Czecho- slovakia and Hungary and alone would have thirty-four divisions against Germany's fifty veteran di- visions and Russia’s forty-five. Po- land’s aim, he says, should be to create a new western frontier by taking the whole of Polish Silesia, whilo on the east a good frontier would be the banks of the Dneiper or_the Bug, Poland’s handicaps in such a war| are that the army is too small, that | there are no airplanes and no chemi- cals. that the rallways are inade- quate and that the Warsaw-Cracow line is too near the German frontier or safety. But there 1§ growing uneasiness here over Poland’s possibly aggres. sive plans. The Pravda, official or- gan of the soviet government, prints an editorial entitled “Reminder to Poland,” which in effect, repeats the warning the writer cabled recently that Russla would regard a Polish at- tempt to selze territory as a chal- lenge to war. “The question as to whether it ssible to keep the conflict present limits depends largely uj the attitude and action of Poland,” says the Pravda. Another newspaper says that the entry of Po- land into the conflict depends upon Premier Poincare of France, and warns its readers, the Russian work- ingmen, that their country must not alone keep its powder dry, but muat have powder to keep dry, or, in other words, that the active manufacture of war material must begin. —_— REV.

TENDRIRTIE, PLEATO CONGRESS Appeals and demands upon members of Congress, both in the House and | Senate, to take drastic action to stem | the tide of narcotic drugs which is endangering the entire country, are be- ing received from every state and from | most of the large communities throughout the country. Two resolu-| tions received by Speaker Gillett to- | day indicate the general trend of these demands for legigative action. | Proposal that the President set aside | a week to be known as “National Anti- | Narcotic week,” and that he cause to | be gathered together an international | conference of competent leaders who . will formulate plans and methods of procedure looking toward the eradica-| tion of the drug peril is made in for-, mal resolutions by the Washington Central Labor Union. These are sign- ! ed by H. S. Hollahan, president, and ;L N. A. James, secretary. Women Ask Aection. The resolutions of the Central Labor | TUnion set forth that “incomtroverti- ble evidence proves that traffic in| narcotic drugs, known as opium, mor-l phine and ococaine, and other deri\'a-’ tives continue to spread want and, misery throughout the United States and the world” It says also that “it has been conclusively shown that| the use of the habit-forming drugs is annuallly showing an alarming in- crease.” Resolutions v Civic League of Detroit received in the Speakers office describes this or- | ganization as one of women who are working to help better conditions in whatever direction the need may be. It says that these women realize the alarming growth of the use of nar- cotics and feel this to be such a men- ace to_mankind that some direct ac- tion should be taken to retard the excessive use of habit-forming drugs and restriot the legitimaté use. 9,000 Tons Manufactured. The Tesolution points out that more than 9,000 tons of narcotic drugs are produced annually in the world when three and one-half tons are sufficient for lawful medicinal use of the entire ‘world. These women indorse in their reso- lutions the proposal for a conference of nations called by the President to formulate restrictive legislation which would limit the production of raw materials from which narcotic drugs are m: so_that only enough is produced annually for legitimate use. Copies of this resolutjon also have been sent to President Harding, Vice President Coolidge and leading mem- bers of both House and Senate. INVEST 1 from the Progressive | [ _FINANCIAL.
