slonep of war. Trotszky linn Just re
turned ironi south Hussla. whom he
directed military operations on the
Crimean front. He snys that Russia
is not making any preparations tor
future Khtliitr. .All the energies of the
toviet, he said are now Point; turned
toward the economic upbuilding of the
country.
According to press dispatches from
Constantinople, Soviet Itussla has em
harked on a new war In First, using
troops that crushed Oen. Wrangel's
antl-bolshcvik army. Constantinople
repoifcd that the Russian reds had In
vade northwestern I'ersla and were
advancing on Tabriz, overcoming nil
opposition.
Trotzky Dictates Statement.
Seated In his office, In the building
of the supreme revolution war council,
Trotzky dictated the following state
ment: "As to the situation on the fronts, I
may say that at this moment we have
no active fronts. In the south we have
eliminated Wrangel. In the west and
southwest we have eliminated 1'etlura
and Balachovitch. In the tar east we
nave routed the legions of Senienoir.
This Is the first occasion in the past
throe years that the military situation
In Russia has been given way to tran
quility. There is no lighting anywhere
Just at present.
"The military reports from the fronts
deal only with the reorganisation of
the newly liberated districts and with
the enumeration of booty captured Py
our armies
"How long do you expect this period
to last? Trotzky was asked. 11
piled:
"In this regard you otight to look for
enlightenment beyond boundaries of
soviet Russia in those ollioial head
quarters where, all plots and attacks
and campaigns against soviet Russia
are be'ns manufactured.
"We want lasting peace. We wanted
ppace befcre the relish war broke out
last spring. We should think that the
entento would grant concessions now
that we have offered amnesty to the
Wrangel crowd and m view of the utter
hopelessness of their undertaking.
"Not Wanted In Paris!''
"Russian peace, however, was not
wanted in Paris and London The re
sult haB been that after a bitter strug
gle and Immeasurable losses Poland got
legs than we had been offering her.
"Wrangel'a adventure In South Rus
sia swallowed nn some tens of thou
sands of lives and a few billions of
francs. The result Is that Wrangel's
hord&s were annihilated
"What do vou regard as the chief
problem of the moment?" Trotzky wai
asked. He responded:
"The economic problem. You know
that I recently returned from the
Donetz basin, where I, together with a
commission sent by the council people'p
commissars, studied conditions In the
coal and Iron field. We learned that the
metal Industries and (he coal mines In
the Doneta basin are now beyond don
ger either from Armenia or the Cau
casus. It Is quite possible to double or
even treble the production of coal with
in the next few months. I am con
vinced that the measures taken by the
government guarantees satisfactory re
sults. We are re-starting the big metal fac
tories In tho south. Railway transpor
tation is Improving. The attention of
the country Is being directed from
questions of politics and war to eco
nomic construction.
We are verv much interested In Inter
national trade. Still more would we
like to be left in peace. On this condi
tion we could pledge ourselves not to
unshenth the sword In the future.
Military Problems.
"What are your purely military prob
lems?" Trotzky was asked.
He replied: "We wish to decrease
considerably the number of men In the
armv but at the same time Increase the
fighting ability of tho army. The capi
talistic press has fed Its readers on
fancy stories about the alleged disin
tegration of the red army and about
Comrade Budennv's betrayal and so on
There still mav he in Europe some
numbskulls who believe such tales as
these As a matter of fact, during the
operations against Wrangel the red
army reached a new level In efficiency
and strategy as well as in heroism
The Russians showed themselves good
fiehters. Our Infantry in particular
soored a great success. Among the
manv trophies captured from the
Wrangel forces we did not find any
thing that we did not already possess.
I "What about the Caucasus and the
War east?" Trotzky was asked.
Trotzkv replied: "Our policy there
Is the same as on the Dniester and the
Narova (the districts where the red
Russians fought Wrangel and the
pnlesl s policy of finhting for peace.
Statesmen of the cpltalltlo countries

HARDING'S PLAN
Tennessee Democratic Sena
tor in Harmony With President-Elect.
SUPPORT ADMINISTRATION
Washington, Dec. 21. (.special.)
The Washington Post of this morning
curries an Interview with Senator
John K. Shields, given after his con
fetence with President-elect Harding
at Marlon In which the Tennessee sen
ator indicates that ho is In harmony
..ill, M- T r. 1 1 .. . . .
...... ..... on nis pian tor an
association of nations, and that ho
will support the forthcoming adminis
tration.
Senator Shields said:
"Senator Harding and 1 voted to
Reiner tne nrst time for ratification
of the Versailles treaty with reserva
tions, but the last time we divided
uimi i voieu against tne whole tlunc.
i was Invited to Marlon to discuss
iniernauonai questions and we did
oenevc, as I nave all along, thnt the
.mien mates snoulrt not become
member of the league as it was framed
in Versailles, or without reservations
i . iiuii ,iic icukuo creates a
super-government or nn Imperialism
dominated by the Ave great nations
chiefly Instrumental In the council,
and that its fundamental principle is
military force. There is no room for
an imperialism under our Constitution
ann form of government and the
American people are opposed to It.
Would Favor World Court.
Not only is the league an Imperial
government, but there Is in It another
want of self-government, self-deter
mlnatlon and the principle's of democ
racy.
"I am opposed to all this, and the
American people do not favor It. as
has ' been demonstrated by the whole
history of our government and con
firmed by the result of the great sol
emn icfirendum which President Wil
son invoked.
'I would lavnr tho creation of
great International court of luetics
and a codification of the laws ol na
tions to be administered by that court.
"That court should have Jurisdiction
of all controversies of nations ordi
narily Known as Justifiable, but no
questions involving the hor.or, sover
eignty and Independence ot nations.
These may be arbitrated and. In order
to prevent wars, I would favor treaties
providing for a conference of nations
where all. great and small, might lie
hoard, according to their absolute
equality and in mirsunnoe of settled
principles of International law. Hut It
should be so framed that no nation
would surrender Its sovereignty or its
right to exercise Its own discretion In
all matters which might arise.
United States Would be Free.
"The system should be such that the
United ISates. for example, would re
main free, sovereign and Independent
and not be involved In the political
jealousies and strifes of others regard
ing dynasties or territories. But we
should continue ready ! do the Just
and righteous thing K'hr iiw occnslon
requires and our Jurtgme"n1 might dic
tate. As Senator Hardrng is working.
I feel that there Is a good chance of
producing something of this kind."
