YANKEES ANSWER LOYALTY APPEAL NEAR ARCHANGEL American Troops Demur at Returning to Service; Told Life Was at Stake By .-IssociateJ Press. Archangel. April 10.—A company of American troops recently showed some hesitation in returning to the fighting front south of Archangel, declaring that the war with Germany was over, and that the United States was not at war with the Bolsheviki. The regimental commander told them they were fighting a desperate defensive battle and appealed to them to stick it out. The company then left for the front. The situation arose when the com pany named was ordered back to the front after a rest period at Arch angel. The officers were informed that the men did not want to go to the front again. They asked to have their arguments answered. The men contended that they were draft men conscripted for the war with Germany, which was finished now, that America was not at war with the Bolsheviki, that the entire Bolshevik question was the subject of much political debate and incesis ion in the United States, and that so far as they were concerned they were unable to see why they should be fighting if there was no war. The regimental commander said that, perhaps, their own lives de pended on the fighting on this front and then made his successful appeal, reciting to the men traditions of the American army. RIGHT TO VOTE IS PROMISED WOMEN BY REPUBLICANS Mrs. Medill McCormick De clares She Is Assured of Bill's Passage Philadelphia. April 10.—Assur ance "on behalf of the Republican party" that the suffrage amend ment \vould be passed by Congress ■within two weeks after it convenes was given the delegates to the an nual convention of the Pennsylva nia Woman Suffrage party, which opens to-day. at their annual ban quet hfre last night by Mrs. Medill McCormick, president of the Na tional Woman's Republican commit tee. Mrs. John O. Miller, of Pitts burgh, president of the State organ ization, said that Governor Sproul had assured the Pennsylvania Wom an Suffrage party of his support in getting through the legislature the referendum on the suffrage ques tion. Mrs. Richard Aldrich, of New York, representing the National Women's Democratic committee, said she was not going to prophesy about the passage of the federal amendment. Democracy, she de clared, has always held to the idea of state's rights and yvas inclined that way on the suffrage question. Women are already politicians, she said, and now that they "seem to have gained their point and about to gain the franchise they must look forward another step; they must help to make the policies." "I have learned not to be grate ful to'parties until they have deliv ered the goods." said Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, national president of the Suffrage party. "I will not thank the Republican party in the person of Mrs. McCormick for the promised franchise, nor the Democratic party in the person of Mrs. Aldrich until women can vote. When I look around and realize that to-night we might have been celebrating the gift of the franchise but for two men in Pennsylvania belonging to the Republican party. I remember that I have a rankling grievance. lieutenant-Colonel Frederick Pal mer. of General Pershing's staff, was among the other speakers. Nearly $25,000 yvas pledged at the banquet to conduct a suffrage campaign in the State.

BERLIN SOVIETS DEMAND RELEASE OF SOCIALIST Prussian aiul National Gov ernments Put in Predica ment by Turn in Affairs By Associated Press, j Berlin, April 10.—The resolution adopted at the opening session of the Soviet Congress here Tuesday night peremptorily demanding the re lease of Georg Ledebour, the Inde pendent Socialist leader arrested during the Spartacan outbreak, has placed the Prussian and national governments in an awkward predica ment. The demand was based upon the fact that Herr Ledebour had been elected a delegate to the con gress and the contention that he should be permitted to exercise his duties in that connection. The chair man of the congress ruled favorably to the independents on a prelimin ary motion, and a turmoil resulted in which the violence of the recri minations hurled from the left by the radicals caused the majority So cialist members to waver enough to insure the necessary votes to carry the motion. The result was applaud -1 ed and the officials of the congress , had no other choice than forthwith I to address messages to the national I and Prussian governments, the states i attorney, and the authorities of the | Moabit jail where Ledbour is con fined apprising them of the wishes of the Soviet delegates. The mem bers of the government were booked to leave for Weimar early Wednes- I day morning. The Prussian minis- Itry of state is said to be opposed to liberating Ledebour, but the inde pendents propose to press the issue j to the extreme limit and hurry a | decision, it is indicated by a dec laration of Herr Rosenfell, former Prussian minister of justice and an independent leader. He blandly in formed the presiding officials that he supposed it might be taken for granted that they would promptly | proceed to comply with the wishes of the delegates so that Ledebour might be able to take part in the deliberations of the congress imme diately. Among the resolutions introduced in the congress is one calling upon the government to appoint five dele gates of the congress as members of the German peace delegation. In addition to the Ledebour case there has arisen that of Dr. Geyer, an Independent Socialist deputy to the national assembly. The Deutsche Tages Zeitung says that the states attorney at Leipsic has requested the assembly to suspend the immunity of Deputy Geyer so that he may be tried for alleged complicity in an attack made during the last Sparta can outbreak in Leigsic. when the independents extorted 400,000 marks from the mayor by threats with army. Dr. Geyer, who also is a dele gate to the Berlin Soviet congress, is a radical independent with Spar tacan-communist leanings.
