longer fired by the missionary zeal
which led its agent? and emissaries
during the first months of ha exist

ambassador from that country today
told a aenate committee. .
The aoyiet-- republic at present,
Martens iaid,vJ'doa-tiot .care what
kind of government bther people

revolutionary propaganda only
"when it was oh' the defensive, and
hard pressed by nations which had
armies in the field against it" To
day, because it "is strong enough
to fight the world," it has aban
doned,' he added, principles first
promulgated to' the effect that it can
be, -maintained only by destruction
of other governments which recog
nize property rights and capitalistic
organization.
' Martens Makes Denials.
These statements Martens made
under oath in response to questions
from Chairman Moses and Senator
Borah, Idaho. Senator Borah shot
him "query after query, repeating
reported manifestos of the soviet
Russian republic which called on
revolutionary elements -everywhere
to organize working men to revolt
against organized government and
demanding to know if every soviet
supporter was not' bound to work
for destruction of all governments
recognizing capital. Martens met
him with quick denials.
Martens denied all connection
with revolutionary movements in the

United States,: though- admitting
some knowledge of them. He said
they were "purely American, arising
out of American conditions." and as
soviet agent he had not helped or
financed them, or their followers. He
had. instructions, he said, to stay
clear of interference with American
affairs. All of his publicity efforts
were devoted to. explaining the soviet;
system to the end that Americans
would allow its recognition as the
established government in Russia
and were not to extend it in the
United States.

When the committee demanded
conies of Governmental instructions
former . Senator Hardwick of
Georeia. attorney for the soviet bu
reau, argued that to give them might
disclose the code m which tue
soviet foreign office corresponded
with Martens, which should be en
titled to immunity, but promised,
notwithstanding, to furnish them. An
adjournment was taken until Thurs
day partly to- let Martens examine
his records. v
Martens said that the soviet gov
ernment had $450,000,000 or $S00,
000,000 in gold to spend in foreign
trade, stating that there was "little
or no gold in the hands' of private
banks or individuals," and that, about
1.000 American concerns were ready
to sell it goods. .
Much of Martens' testimony was
by a-written statement, though, he
was interrupted constantly in its
reading by questions.

ANSWER TO THE
HOLLAND NOTE
French Legal Experts to Go
Into All Phases of Case and
Submit Reply Next
Week; ' '
Paris, Jan. 26. The reply to the
refusal of the Dutch government to
comply with the demand of the al
lies for the surrender of former Em
peror William was the first subject
discussed today at the initial meet
ing of the council of the ambassa
dors, created to carry on the unfin
ished routine work of the supreme
council of the peace conference,
which disbanded last week.
It was decided that the French
legal experts, available should go
into all tlie aspects of the case and
prepare the reply, which probably
will be submitted aor aooroval of the
council early next week.
Legal Phase, Chief One.
The discussion in .the council did
not disclose the trend of opinion
among the members further than
it appeared to be the view that the
legal phase of the question had. be
come the chief one. . '
The council was presided over bv
Premier 'Millerand. Hugh C. Wal
lace, the American ambassador, was
present with the other members of
the body.. After disposing for the
day of the extradition question, the
council decided to give the represen
tatives of the Jugo-SIav four days
additional time to . reply regarding
the proposed' compromise on the
adriatic question, including the dis
position Fiume. This carries the
question along until Wednesday.
The council received a lettir from
Stanislas ;Patek, .Polish minister of
foreign affairs, calling' attention to
the possibility of a strong aggressive
movement by the bolsheviki against
Polish territory and recommending
that a plan !e adopted for defensive
measures. .The letter asked that the
question be called to the attention of
Marshal roch.
Germans Ask Questions.
The council also hao before it a
note from the German plenipoten
tiaries raising certain points regard
ing the makeup of the boundary
commission provided for by the
treaty of Versailles. The questions
were raised by the Germans because
of the non-ratification of the treaty
by the United States and the con
sequent. lack of American members
on the commissions as provided for
by the peace document.
The absence of the Americans al
so raised a question as to the presi
dency of the commissions to control
the plebiscite in the Teschen terri
tory, on the Czecho-Slovak and
Polish frontier. It was pointed out
that the French member would act,
pending the qualification of the
American member through the rati
fication of the pact, should such ac
tion be taken' by the United States
government
V At the cloe .Vf the morning ses

'.-Speaking of the presidential -situation
in Wyoming, Judge Winter
said:

counted as a dark horse possibility.
It is hardly necessary to say that
Senator Johnson has a lot of loyal
supporters. . It is unlikely that any
candidates, however, will have the
Wyoming delegation pledged to him.
"General Pershing probably is the
strongest of any republican who has
been mentioned for the nomination.
In addition to, his splendid record as
soldier, he has added to his. support
ers by his recent visit, during which
he disclosed a magic personality, an
ability to speak and a capacity to

clares he is not a candidate. I hap

DANIELS MADE ,
; AWARDS TO MEN
DESPITE BOARD
Letter to Chairman Hale
Probe "Committee Made
PubKc by Secretary.'
Washington, Jan. 26. Secretary
Daniels, made public : a letter to
Chairman Hale, of the senate sub
committee investigating naval war
decoration awards, transmitting a
list of awards rhade to enlisted men
by the secretary, without reference
to the Knight Medal Award board,
It consists of 12 awards of Dis
tinguished Service medals, the only
instance, Mr. iJaniels satd, oi sucn
awards to enlisted men, and 144 navy
cross awards.
Chairman Hale was informed,
also, that a list of awards to officers
made by direction of the secretary
"without action of the board," was
being compiled.
: Few Men Recommended.
Secretary Daniels said that when
the report of the board reached him,
he noticed "that put of 500,000
in the naval service auring ine
war, only about 113 enlisted men
had been recommended for the Navy
Cross and' none had been recom
mended for the Distinguished Serv
ice medal."
"I know," the letter said, "that
there were reports of brave and
heroic action by many enlisted men
as well as bv manv officers. I di
rected a study of these reports and as
result directed that Distinguisnea
Service medals and Navy Crosses be
awarded."
Daniels Recalls Order.
Daniels recalled his order asking
the entire service personnel to report
instances of courage or unusual serv
ice, and added:
Many men whose deeds are yet
unreported will be rewarded, bto
final action would be just without
the information and recommendations-requested
from all officers and
men."
Citations accompanying the list of
awards show that the medals have
been awarded not only to" men on
ships in the war zone, but also to
several members of the naval hos
pital unit which served with the
marine brigade in France. .
