Energetic measures asalnst persons wisnectcd of being Bol- Islipvik agents have been ndoptcd by the government of the Oeorglnn republic. The representative of Soviet Bussia has been expelled from Kutals, north of Battim, on the. eastern shore of the Blnclt Sen, while Socialist clubs hove been raided, their members nrrcatcd and arms and documents sclr.cd. A ahnrp note has been handed M. Sheman, who represents the Moscow government here, stating the admin istration will not tolerate Soviet machi nations, in this country, Georgia, however, Is completely sur rounded bv Bolshevik states, and it is expected it will be absorbed by the Soviet hurricane nt nny moment. Communist leaders, here have received Instructions to proceed to the city of Dclljnn, at the north end of the lnlte Ookchn, and there establish u revolu tionary committee. When this is ac complished they have been directed to set tip a Soviet regime ana maite an nppcal for intervention by a Russian army concentrated along the eastern frontier. This plan was carried out iiicpssfully In Armenia. Military experts believe it Is with "'iscow to decide whether the Soviet my will support a local Bolshevik rev- ution. Premier Lenlnc Is reported i i favor avoiding interference In Geor gia, but other probahle figures In the Soviet government declare that Inter vention here is essential to the security of Bussia. The Georgian army now numbers 00,000 men, but military experts ex press the belief that many of the men linve been converted to bolshcvism, nnd would join tlie Soviet nnnlcs in a trisls. The army is reported to be fully equipped. It is reported the Fourteenth Bus hinn Soviet army has arrived nt Baku, where it will relieve the Tenth Soviet army, which is on its way to Persia. The Armenlun Government has de livered a note to the administration of Georgia demanding that a plebiscite be held in the province of Akhalkalakl, the population of which is it) per cent Ar menian.

LEN1NE LAYS DOWN E Only Way Socialists Can Join Third Internationale Is to Ac cept Conditions, Ho Says UNIONS LOSE MEMBERSHIP Tly tho Assoclatcel Press Tours, Dec. 1!H. Unqualified nc ceptanco of the twenty-one conditions laid down by Moscow is the only way the French Socialists can join the Tiiird Internationale, the French Socialist Congress was 'notified today in n tele gram received from Nikolai Lenlnc, the Soviet premier; Leon Trotzky. Sovi't minister of war, nnd G. S. Zlnovicff, Bolshevik governor of Pctrograd. The telegram, which wns rend nt thiH morning's session of tho congress, was' signed by the chiefs of nil the nntiona' parties which nro reported members of the Third Internationale. Together with tho name of the party in tho I'nltcil States nppcars the numc "Courvltch. It is believed hero that "Courvitch" is Nlcolni Hourwlch, one of the editors of the communist organ Novy Mir, the office of which was raided by federal agents in New York early this year. It is pointed out In the telegram that Moscow indorses a resolution proposed to the congress by Marcel Cachin, So cialist deputy, for unconditional affilia tion with the Third Internationale. It says the Soviet leaders in Itussia regard as "Imbued with a spirit of reformism and diplomatic chlcuncry" a middle road resolution presented by Jean Lou guet, minority lender, nnd Paul Tniire, ot the ( vntor pnrty. "Lougnet, Faure and their groups show they have no claim to be accepted from tho reformist camp," the telegram continues. "They have been and will remnln determined agents of bourgeoise influence." Tlie platform presented yesterday by M. Faure provided for adhesion to the Bolshevik regime In principle, without acceptance of the twenty-one points imposed by Moscow. Tlie message concludes with the state ment that Moscow can have nothing In common with such elements ns nro rep resented by Longuet and Faure, nnd says that "for the French workers to get entangled with such reform com promises would mean the death knell of their pnrty." M. Faure presented to the dele'gntcs figures showing material elecreases of the memberships in the union .syndicates of the Seino nnd of the French con federation of labor. The conferediition niembcrship.hns decreased from l.."00.. 000 to (100,000, he declared, while that of the Seine syndicates has dtvrenstd from 202.000 to 140.001). lie asserted this decrease was due to the extremist element and that the party would suf fer further losses if the revolutionary spirit of Moscow prevailed e Uhe Superfine Smal) Car Templar quality saves you more because it serves you better and longer.
