NEW MILITARISM BUILT ON, RUINS OF PRUSSIA'S RULE MENACES EUROPE Lenine's Army, Commanded by Former Czarists, the Ruthless Force by Which Germany Schemes to Recover From Defeat "i '" .. ALLIES? MAY YET BE FORCED TO FIGHT RED HOST THAT THREATENS CIVILIZATION By B. F. KOSPOTII Stair Correspondent of the Evenlnc Fnbllo Lrdier CovurlaM, 1020, bv PuWo Ltdotr Co. Geneva, Aug. 7. From the ruins of Prussian militarism, which the great war was waged to destroy, a new mili tarism has arisen, more menacing even than tho old becauso It Is allied with revolutionary Internationalism. Tho Red' rulers In Moscow aro Its creators, but It is Imbued with tho Prussian spirit and its lcglonH are at the disposal of the impenitent militarists In Berlin. It is universally recognized at last, even by European Socialists who re cently visited Russia, that the Soviet power Is simply a military despotism. Tho Red army is the ruthless force on which Berlin hopes to nnnul Allied vic tory. In many political circles In Europe tho belief is todny general that the Al lies, In spite of their endeavors to over come tho new militarism by persuasive and pacific methods, will In the end be forced to fight tho Red army after all. even as they were forced to fight the Kaiser's armies. However that may be, tho leadership, organization and spirit of the Red army aro at present matters of supreme Importance. How far can tho Soviet dictators rely upon it to maintain their power? To what extent is it at Germany's beck and call for a new war of aggression and revenge? Tho fate of Russia undoubtedly depends oh tho first question, nnd on the second perhaps tho fate of Europe. "Reorganized" By Former Czarist To answer them accurately nnd to penetrate tho mystery that has always surrounded tho Red nrmy is no easy task. In this respect tho tales of travel ers aro virtually worthless. But I have succeeded In obtaining, through officers serving in tho Red army themselves but secretly loathing the tyrants they are forced to obey, quite fresh, first-hand Information which sheds much light on the subject. The present Red nrmy, which has revealed Itself by Its victories over the roles as n first-class fighting force, bears scarcely any resemblance to the revolutionary host originally created by Trotzky after the Bolshevist coup d'etat. It is the product of n com pleto reorganization effected In May, 1020, by tho Red general staff under tho direction of General Palivanov, who was one of tho Czar's last war minis ters and who joined tho Bolshevists about this time. -This reorganization was kept secret, and it is interesting to noto that It was carried out at tho very tlrao when Trotzky announced to the world that tho Red army was being transformed Into a "peaceful labor army." As reorganized by General Palivanov, the Red forces arc divided into nn "nctivo army," a "reserve army" and "mllltln." Its man-power is furnished by compulsory service of all citizens between twenty-one and thirty-five years of age. Real Fighting Forco The nctivo army, which is the only real fighting force, is divided Into "di-1 visions" which aro united in "armies." There are no nrmy corps. It is ofii cered by professional officers of the old Czarist army, by German officers and by graduates from the eight military academics established by the Soviet government. Of the latter, the major ity bclopg to "bourgeois" families. The reserve army consists only of battalions and squadrons and its offi cers nro merely Instructors, who see their men only during the hours of drill.

NEW DRIVE ON ASIA BEGUN BY SOVIETS Lenine Follows Up Successes in Poland by Somewhat Unex pected Invasion of East PERSIAN CAPITAL MENACED By tho Associated Press Washington, Aug. 7. Soviet Russia has followed up its successes against Poland with a thrust Into south western Asia and its forces already aro threatening tho Persian capital of Teheran. This rather unexpected movo, by tho Bolshevik! is believed by some officials and diplomats here to bo di rected against British and French domain in the Near East and Asia. News of the Soviet army's advance south and west of the Caspian sea was conveyed yesterday in official dispatches from John L. Caldwell, American min ister to Persia, and the American con sul at Tabriz. Tho minister asked permission of tho State Department to remove the Amer ican legation from Teheran In view of the preparations of the Persian Gov ernment to evneuate the capital, while the oonsul asked authority to move from Tabriz. Both requests were grautcd.

Polish counter-attacks against tho Russian TSolshcvikI havo been successful, according to newspapers here.

Premier MUlcrand will leave at 7 :30 o'clock tonight for Hythe, England, where ho will confer with Premier Lloyd George on tho Polish question. Marshal Foch will accompany the pre mier to tho conference. Military aid for Poland, consisting of one or two divisions each from France, Great Britain, limgary, Ru mania, Lctvin and possibly other na tions, is one of the emergency measures to bo discussed by the two premiers. This plan, ns well as other measures, has been retommended by the French nnd British missions nt Warsaw. It has been pointed out that Hungary, par ticularly, can send good cavalry Into the nciu. All these divisions, it Is under stood, would be fully equipped, and it hns been proposed that these re-enforcements take the field before Warsaw to defend tho capital of Poland. French Intervention Opposed Opposition to antl-Sovlet Intervention hns resulted In the French Unified So cialist party exhorting its members to act to keep Franca out of the struggle. "An'npponl'for tho Russian revolution against capitalist imperialism" is the caption under which the committee makes tho following nnnounccment: "In concert with the General Labor Federation, It has been decided imme diately to organize vigorous action against tlio plan of brigandage directed against the Russian revolution, yhich may again set fire to the whole of Europe. Until the projetcd action can be begun, sections nnd federations arc invited to organize from now on all the agitation desirable so that public opinion rany at once be Informed of the criminal plans of our rulers and the consequences thnt may result.

Russians Short of Ammunition The virtual cessation of the Bolshe vist advance In tho region to the north of Warsaw (along the east Prussian border) is -declared in the reports of tho allied missions to Poland to be due not only to Polish rallies at certain points, but primarily to the Russians' lack of ammunition. It has been ascertained from tho Grnlevo region, on the East Prussian frontier, thnt machine guns were th main weapons of the Soviet troops dur ing their recent advance there. The artillery was not brought into play, as thcro was no ammunition for it, it was declared. Tho Russians have British.

Blak'cly Coughjln, the fifteen-month's- old Norristown bnby, was stolen by a Russian Pole, according to a confession made this1 afternoon in CnUiln of De tectives Soudcr's office at City Hall by Augusto Pasquale, "The Crank." Tho baby, according to the same con cession, was alive and well as recently n In-. U. ..!.. li:i ...I T t. .in lanv, OMUUUy Ulltl, WHC11 1. HtiqualB said he escorted the women who has the child in her custody to the Market street ferry, this city. Pasquale revealed many details of what he asserted was the true story of the kidnnpplng. He stopped, however, when he came to the point of telling where the baby is now hidden. Captain Soudir and Major Adams, head of the state police, who today ence more set their patience and finesse against the wits and chilled steel nerve of "The Crank," are undecided whether to believe his story. They had prepared to put him through the refined torture of the "third de gree" again today, aided by several other detectives of skill and experience. It turned out that the detectives lis tened more than they asked questions. Pasquale decided to "make a clean breast of It," if his story is to be credited. Attorney Watches Quiz His decision to talk at length wan made on tlio advice of Benjamin P. Goodman, an attorney, who represent ed the prisoner when he was in tho toils of the law in this city a year ago. Mr. Goodman was present at the In terview in Captain Soudcr's office. For more than nn hour Pasquale poured out the details of his story. And yet the one supremely important disclosure he refused to make, in a statement of Pasqualc's disclosures, he would not tell where the baby wag hidden. Says Others Stolo Child Mr. Goodman's complete 4 statement follows : v, "I waj over onv hour with Pasquale, 'The Crank,' this morning in the pres ence of Captain Souder, and closely questioned Pasquale, with the result that I am convinced that Pasquale had nothing to do with the actual kidnap ping. "He said: 'I met a Russian Pole the night before tho kidnapping, on Sev enth street. M'o were going to pull off a job together ; but in some way I lost him. I did not meet him ngain until the day after the kidnapping.' " 'I asked him whether ho got any money out of the job he was going to pull off, nnd he replied thnt he had gotten no money, but Iind gotten a millionaire's baby. "My man had nothing to do with the kidnapping, but agreed to write jTie letters to Coughlin demanding ransom because the Russian-Pole could not write English. He wrote the letters and got a piece of change out of it. "He further admits he is the man who bought the farm at New Gretna and placed the signal along the rail road track near Egg Harbor to secure the .$10,000 demanded in the last 'Crank letter. "Pnsqualo told ine he lust saw the woman who has the baby at Market street ferry at 10 :30 o'clock last Sunday uiglit. Pusquale went with the Russian-Pole to Egg Harbor, where he left 1 1 1 tn to go to New Gretna. "Pasquale came back to Egg Harbor Monday i.inrniug to get the second haul, wheu he was arrested. This Russian Pclo told Pasquale that he had been discharged from the Holinesburg prisou in February. "He had served nine mouths for high way robbery. lie told Pasquale that I.
