- London, July 26.—It is announced of-
ficially here that Japan has decided to
. accept the American proposal to assist
the Czecho-Slovak armies in Siberia.
This is the first official utterance
in regard to the progress of the nego-
tiations for allied intervention in Si-
beria. Unofficial reports from Tokio
recently said that Japan had agreed
to the American proposals and that Ja-
pan’s reply was en route to the United
States. Washington has remained si-
lent on the subject pending receipt of
the Japanese reply.

Washington, July 26.—President Wilson today in a personal
statement addressed to his fellow countrymen, denouncing mob
spirit and mob action, called upon the nation to show the world
that while it fights for democracy on foreign fields, it is not destroy-
ing democracy at home.
The president referred not alone to mob action against those
suspected of being enemy aliens or enemy sympathizers; he de-
nouncd most emphatically mob action of all sorts, especially lynch-
ings, and while he did not refer specifically to lynchings of negroes
in the South, it is known that he included them in his characterization
of mob spirit as "a blow at the heart of ordered law and humane
justice.”
It is known that the lynchings of negroes, as well as attacks
upon those suspected of being enemies or sympathizers, have been
used by the German propaganda throughout Central and South
America, as well as in Europe, to contend that the pretensions of
the United States as a champion of democracy are a sham. Deeply
concerned by the situation, the president decided to address his fel-
low countrymen and to declare that "every mob contributes to Ger-
man lies without the United States what her most gifted liars can
not improve upon by way of calumny.”
SOVIETS FACING CRISIS.
Various Difficulties Make Things Hard
for Lenine.
By Associated Press.
Amsterdam, July 26.—Premier Lenine
in a speech at Moscow before the gov-
: ernment conference of factory commit-
tees said the position of the soviet re-
public had become extremely acute in
view of the international complica-
tions, counter-revolutionary conspira-
cies, and the food crisis, according to a
Moscow dispatch received by way of
Berlin.
The Russian proletariat know very |
well, Lenine told the conference, that |
the united action of the workers of the 1
entire world, or of some of the highly
developed capitalistic countries was an
essential condition to the victory of the
Russian revolution. It was easy for
Russia to begin a revolution, but ex-
traordinarily difficult to continue and
conclude it. On the other hand, the
beginning of a revolution in such a
long-organized bourgeois country as
Germany was extremely difficult, but
then it would be so much easier to
carry it to completion.
Referring to the Brest-Litovsk treaty,
Lenine said that according to the
treaty Russia must pay Germany six
billion rubles. The attempt of the so-
cial revolutionists of the left to en-
[ tangle Russia in a war with Germany
I by the murder of the German ambas-
| sador was no way to evade the treaty.
: The way out must be found by the joint
exertions of the proletariat and the
poor peasants.
SLOVAKS TAKE SIMBIRSK.
Soviet Troops Are Ousted From Trad-
ing Center.
By Associated Press.
Amsterdam, July 26.—With the cap-
“ture of Simbirsk, on the Volga, the
Czecho-Slovak troops now control not
only the left bank of the river, but
part of the territory on the right bank.
The fall of Simbirsk, which is an-
nounced in a telegram from Moscow by
way of Berlin, occurred after the soviet
. troops had made a strong defense.
The Pravda, the official soviet organ,
commenting on the advance of the
Czechos, says:
“The rising is spreading like a patch
of oil on water. May the capture of
Simbirsk awaken the sleepers, Sim-
birsk was one of the bases of the coun-
cil’s power and also the corn granary.
The danger is growing. It is war. The
enemy is numerous and well organized.
If the fall of Samara has not awakened
the workers, may the fall of Simbirsk
make the proletariat tremble for the
fate of the proletariat revolution.”
. The president’s statement in full
follows:
“My fellow countrymen:
“I take the liberty of addressing
you upon a subject which so vitally
affects the honor of the nation and
the very character and integrity
of our institutions that I trust you
will think me justified in speaking
very plainly about it.
“I allude to the mob spirit which
has recently here and there very
frequently shown its head amongst
us, not in any single region, but
in many and widely separated parts
of the country. There have been
many lynchings, and everyone of
them has been a blow at the heart
of ordered law and humane justice.
No man who loves America, no man
who really cares for her fame and
honor and character or who is truly
loyal to her institutions, can jus-
tify mob action while the courts
of justice are open and the gov-
ernments of the states and the na-
tion are ready and able to do their
duty.
“We are at this very moment
‘ fighting lawless passion. Ger-
many has outlawed herself among
the nations because she has disre-
garded the sacred obligations of
law and has made lynchers of her
armies. Lynchers emulate her dis-
graceful example, I, for my part,
am axious to see every community
in America rise above that level,
with pride and a fixed resolution
which no man or set of men can
afford to despise.
“We proudly claim to be the
champions of democracy. If we
really are, in deed and in truth,
let us see to it that we do not dis-
credit our own. I say plainly that,
every American who' takes part in
the action of a mob or gives any
sort of countenance is no true son
of this great democracy, but its
betrayer, and does more to dis-
credit her by that single disloy-
alty to her standards of law and of
right than the words of her states-
men or of the sacrifices of her he-
roic boys in the trenches can do to
make suffering peoples believe her
to be their saviour. How shall we
recommend democracy to the ac-
ceptance of other peoples, if we
disgrace our own by proving that
it is after all, no protection to
weak? Every mob contributes to
German lies about the United States
what her most gifted liars cannot
improve upon by the way of'
calumny. They can at least say
that such things cannot happen in
Germany except in times of revolu-
tions, when law is swept away.
“I therefore very earnestly and
solemnly beg that the governors
of all the states, the law officers
1 of every community, and, above
all, the men and women of every
community in the United States, all
who revere America and wish to
keep her name without stain or re-
proach, will co-operate—not pas-
sively merely, but actively and
watchfully to make an end of this
disgraceful evil. It cannot live
where the community does not
countenance it.
“I have called upon the nation to
put its great energy into this war
and it has responded—responded
with a spirit and a genius for ac-
tion that has thrilled the world. I
now call upon it, upon its men and
women everywhere, to see to it that
its laws are kept inviolate, its
fame untarnished. Let us show our
utter contempt for the things that
have made this war hideous among
• the wars of history by showing how
those who love liberty and right
and justice and are willing to lay
down their lives for them upon
foreign fields stand ready also to
illustrate to all mankind their loy-
alty to the things at home which
they wish to see established every-
where as a blessing and protection
to the peoples ' who have never
known the privilege of liberty and
self-government.
“I can never accept any man as
a champion of liberty either for
ourselves or for the world who
does not
laws of
reverence and obey the
our own beloved
whose laws we ourselves
land,
have
made. He has adopted the stand-
ards of the enemies of his coun-
try, whom he affects to despise.

With the French Army in France,
July 26.—(By the Associated Press).—
A retrospective glance at the entire
battle since the Germans tried to cross
the Marne in their great effort to break
up the French armies shows that the
crown prince, thinking the French ex-
hausted by the terrific defensive bat-
tles they fought during March, April.
May and June, had decided to launch
a fresh offensive. He was so confident
of success that he did not endeavor
to hide his preparations.
When Generals Von Einim, Von Mu-
dra, Von Boehm and Von Eben started
the attack on the night of July 14 they
expected to overcome all resistance and
easily capture Montmirail, Epernay and
Chalons. General Petain, however, had
prepared another plan which was pre-
sented to Generalissimo Foch on July
12, and which was approved the fol-
lowing day.
The idea was to abandon advanced
posts and hold the principal line of
resistance with only the absolutely es-
sential forces, and in the meantime pre-
pare to spring a counteroffensive on the
German flank when the enemy troops
were fully engaged in battle. East-
ward of Rheims the execution of Gen-
eral Petain's plan was favored by
strong old positions, but to the west-
German armies, which were obliged
to employ many divisions which had
been reserved for later blows.
Thus the present moment for them
is one of the most critical of the war,
since the allies possess the initiative
and the rapidly increasing American
army enables them to undertake op-
erations which would otherwise be im-
possible.

William P. Hobby, governor of Texas
and a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for that office, arrived in
Galveston this morning at 9:25 o’clock
and was given, an enthusiastic welcome
by the members of the local reception
committee and the public. He was ac-
companied by Mrs. Hobby, who has
been with her husband during much
of the present compaign.
Governor Hobby will close his cam-
paign here tonight in an address at
Boulevard park and indications are
that he will be heard by one of the
largest crowds that ever assembled
here for a political meeting..
At the station when Gavernor and
Mrs. Hobby arrived were three hun-
dred others who wanted to get a look
at the chief executive of the state. The
visitors were greeted with much en-
thusiasm on the part of all concerned
and appeared to be more than pleased
with the cordiality of their reception
here.
Mr. Hobby spent most of the day
quitely at Hotel Galvez, getting some
needed rest and preparing for his ad-
dress tonight. A great number of his
friends called upon him during the day
and gave assurances of their support.

were on duty at the hotel throughout
the day and saw to it that every cour-
tesy was hhown the governor and Mrs.
Hobby.

Hobby was accompanied by George
Sealy, acting mayor; R. Lee Kempner,
chairman of the Galveston county Hob-
by campaign committee,- Very Rev. J.
M. Kirwin, A. S. V., and other members
of the reception committee.
Despite the strenuous work of cam-
paigning which has taken much of the
governor’s time during the last few
weeks he is looking physically fit and
shows only slightly any signs of the
strain of travel and daily speeches.
The rally at which the governor will
close his campaign will be held at
Boulevard park tonight. There will be
a hand concert proceeding the speak-
ing, which is to start promptly at 8:30
o’clock. All arrangements for the have

in nearby towns wanted to hear the
closing address of the governor.

GERMANY HAS LOST
GREATEST GAMBLE
Staked Her Destiny on Subma.
marine Campaign, Which
Has Failed.
By Associated Press
London, Thursday, July 25.—The gov-
ernment gave a dinner this evening in
honor of Herbert C. Hoover, the Ameri-
can food administrator, Victor Boret,
French minister of provisions, and Dr.
Silvio Crespi, Italian food minister.
Premier Lloyd-George, proposing the
health of the guests, paid a glowing
tribute to Mr. Hoover. He said that
through him America had achieved a
great triumph in securing a large
number of people in Europe from want
and starvation. There was now no
fear whatever, he declared, that the
allies would be starved out.
Germany, continued the premier, had
made the greatest gamble in her his-
tory; she had pitted her whole destiny
Upon the success of the submarine
campaign, and it had failed.
After comparing Great Britain’s
abundance of food with Germany’s
scarcity, Premier Lloyd-George said he
regretted the necessity for bringing in
a warning as a skeleton at the feast.
It was not altogether a question of
food. It was a question of tonnage.
America was sending hundreds of thou-
sands of men monthly. More were com-
ing and next year if would be a gi-
gantic army and it was a question of
bringing supplies for that army.
This would absorb more tonnage
than carrying the men themselves.
America was building ships at a great
rate and her program was a great
success. Great Britain also was build,
ing as fast as she could, but in addi-
tion to building she had to keep her gi-
gantic fleet repaired and, most of the
repairsto American ships must be done
in Great Britain. Consequently, there
was a limit to the number of ships
which could be turned out. While the
number of ships was increasing enor-
mously, the premier continued, the
demand on shipping was greater and
the essential need of economy in food
and every other commodity must
kept firmly in mind.

UKRAINE PEASANTS

Outbreak in That Region De*
velops on Formidable
Scale.
By Associated Press.
London, July 26.—A peasants’ rebel-
lion has broken out in the Ukraine on
a formidable scale, according to infor-
mation received today. Seventy-five
thousand peasants, fairly efficient
troops, with their officers and instruc-
tors, are advancing against the Ger-
mans, detachments of whom have with-
drawn before hostile advance, retreat-
ing to Kiev. The peasants are well
armed.
By Associated Press.
Villemontoire, a little more than five miles south of Soissons,
has been taken by the French and Americans, while further south
they have captured Oulchy-le-Chateau and swept on to the eastward
of the town.
Between the Ourcq and the Marne the Americans are pressing
hard against the enemy’s lines and have taken the southern half of
La Fere forest, which brings them up to about four miles directly
south of the vital town of Fere-en-Tardenois, the center of the roads
leading back out of the Marne salient and through which the Ger-
man forces along the southwestern sectors of the line must retreat.
This forest, further southeast toward the Marne, is also being
emptied of the Germans.
The capture of Villemontoire and Oulchy-le-Chateau seems to
show that Gen. Mangin, while keeping up his pressure all along
the German lines', is able to concentrate large forces at vital points,
the loss of which is menacing to the Germans. Villemontoire is on
the Soissons-Chateau Thierry road. It is southwest of the town
of Buzancy, which has been reported unofficially to have been taken
by the allies. Its capture marks a new step in the process of closing
the mouth of the bag in which the Germans are struggling.
The fall of Oulchy-le-Chateau takes from the Germans the pivot
upon which their retirement further south has been swinging. Its
loss to the enemy, who defended it sternly, is a serious- blow.
There is nothing known as to British progress on the line from
Guaux and Mery Premecy, west of Rheims. The reported rapid
advance of the British, however, would seem to suggest that there
was plenty of power behind their thrust and that their progress
should continue.
On the whole, the German retirement from the Marne salient
appears to be continuing.
German attacks near Metern in the Lys salient and near Hebu-
terne, north of Albert, in both of which localities the British 'have
recently advanced their lines, are reported from London. Both
enemy onslaughts were repulsed.
It is announced officially from London that Japan has agreed
to the American proposal to assist the Czecho-Slovak armies in
Siberia.
GUNS DOMINATE POCKET.
Allied guns now command every
point in the pocket. With the capture
of Oulchy-la-ville on the west and an
advance of more than a mile on the
southwest. Fere en-Tardenois Thurs-
day was within three and one-half
miles of the allied line in the Tour-
nelle wood, where the French continue
to progress. Allied pressure maintains
its forward movement markedly be-
tween the Ourcq and the Marne and
the latest gain has averaged mroe than
a mile on the entire front from the
Ourcq to Dormans. The forests of Fere
and Ris are being cleared of the stub-
bornly resiting enemy, who is taking
advantage of every natural obstacle in
attempting to hold back the allies.
Heavily reinforced, the Germans are
striking back with great vigor all
along this front, as well as along the
eastern side of the pocket. They have
not been able to hold the allies from
advancing, although their resistance
has stiffened constantly.'
British and French troops Thursday
night were unofficially reported to
have made an advance of two miles
toward Fismes, in the region of Vrigny,
and have reached Gouex and Mery
Premecy, which now are the markers
of the eastern side. The gain here not
only narrows the pocket, but also
places in great jeopardy the German
forces who are north of the Marne in
the forests west and north of Cha-
tillon.
Military observers on the battlefield
believe that the crown prince, before
he begins a general retreat with the
possibility of losing a large part of his
forces now south of the Vesle, will en-
deavor to halt the allies by launching
a strong attack on a more or less wide
front in the region of Soissons. Here,
however, Gen. Foch is protected some-
what by the River Aisne and he also
hold the high ground southwest of
Soissons.
GERMANS LOSE 200,000.
Seventy German divisions are re-
ported to have taken part in the fight-
ing already and the enemy losses now
are estimated at 200,000. More than
25,000 prisoners have been taken by
the allies, as well as 500 guns and
thousands of machine guns.
Berlin reports that all allied efforts
were frustrated Wednesday. Its brief
report on Thursday’s fighting declares
there were “vigorous local actions” be-
tween Soissons and Rheims.
From Soissons to the North sea there
has been little activity except for suc-
cessful raids by the British near Albert
and elsewhere. Only the artillery has
been active on the other sectors in
France and Italy.
The Russian soviet government is
facing an acute situation, Premier
Lenine is reported to have announced.
The Czecho-Slovak troops continue to
advance along the Volga and have
captured Simbirsk, 600 miles east of
Moscow and the soviet, corn granary.
The Czechs now hold Kazan, Simbirsk
and Samara, on the middle Volga, and
are reported to be gainig ground west
of the river toward Moscow.

SOCIAL REFORMER DIES.
By Associated Press.
Washington, July 26.—An account of
the activities of the French air service
obtained from authentic sources today
shows the suffering being inflicted on
the German army crowded into the
Aisne-Marne salient. Tons of bombs
are being rained from the air night
and day. During the period of the first
two weeks of June, French airmen
alone dropped six hundred tons of high
explosives on the Germans in the
trenches, on rest billets, railway sta-
tions, and on munition works far back
of the fighting lines. A total of 27,673
flights were made for military purposes
during that time, and more than 2,000
combats occurred in the air. In this
fighting 199 German planes were de-
stroyed or forced to land in French ter-
ritory and 161 were damaged and prob-
ably destroyed, making a total of
360 enemy machines brought down
against a loss of 72 machines by the
French. Twelve of the French planes
