Finns Deliver Reply To Reds Armistice Terms
Finnish reply to Russia final armistice terms was handed to the Russian legation in Stockholm. A Finnish diplomat told the Associated Press he has little hope for peace. The notice said Mme Alexandra Kollontai would transmit the reply to Moscow and a Finnish announcement of contents was expected after Moscow confirmation. The Finnish parliament reportedly rejected the terms in secret session. Russia demanded seven German divisions and Red Army help, a chief stumbling block. Sweden urged Finland to accept the terms, with King Gustav V communicating the view to Finnish authorities.
