AMERICAN FORCES
 LANDED IN RUSSIA
Marines and BluejaCkets at Kola
 to Protect War Supplies

Washington, July 2-American armed forces, marines and bluejack- cts, have landed On Russan soil and with British and French naval forces are protecting the Vitully important port of kOla in the Province of ArchangeI, from falling into pro- German hands.
 The Americans aud Allies are understood also 10 be protecting the huge amount of military and other supplies which accumulated before the Brest-LitOHsk peace pact because the railway line running south from kOla was not in shape to move them.
 The American armed forces have been identified with this military en- tcrprise on Russian territory for some time, but censhorship regula- tions did not permit mention of it.
 The American forces left an Atlan- tic port several weeks; ago bound for Russian W".urS. Both British and French f"lc"a n"E> been operating in this part of Russian territory for some, time and the arrival of the Americans has served to internation- alizc the force using military pressure in Russia for fussia's s good.
 The landing of armed forces at Kola by the Allies and the United States, so far as advices indicate, has been in no way resented by the Rus sian people, although Germans. and particularly the Finnish White Guards. acting presumably under German guidance. have attempted 10 make trouble and bring about a situ atiOn which would permit the port of Kola and the important railway line with the supplies, to be taken over il,N Dol sbcvil1 agents on one preteXt or an other.
 The fact that Moscow now reports a state of war to have been pro- claimed in Archangel may mean that German plans are again on foot to eradicate this practical military as sistance which the Allies and the United States have been effectively rendering to the Russian people.
 Officials here do not yet understand the full meaning of the proclamation of a state of war. It may mean that the Finnish White Guards again are seeking to begin plans for the ac- uusition of this territory. It may mean that the authorities, because of the disturbed situation, have declared martial law in the province of Ar changel. Whether this will mean complications because of the pres cncc of the allied and American forces there, cannot yet be foreseen.
 The supplies which the Allies and Americans urc guarding for the Rus sians, are huge stores of supplies originally sent from the United states and Europe. In this respect the sit nation is similar to that existing at NladiVOstOk.
 But the expedition at Kola, al- though essentially military in charac- ter and constituting military inter vention. in one sense differs from the landing of inc British and Japanese armed forces at NladivOstOk, because ii is appreciated that there is no thought of military intervention on a largo scale into Russian territory from <ola. It is practically impos- sibIc to organize effective interVen- ton from the White Sea ports, owing to the extremely UnfaVOrablc geo. graphical conditions. A large, force is not required either for the defence of the ports or for the protection of
