THE BOLSHEVIk ARMY

The armies under the command of the Bolshevik government in Russia comprise approximately 800,- GOO men, but only about 250,000 Of them are actual combatants. ac- cording 10 information received a few weeks ago 7t Berne, Switzer- land and forwarded to the United States by the Associated Press.
 These forces are divided into fif- teen armies of 17,000 combatan:s each. Twelve of them are described as completely organized. Each army consists of two or three divisions, and each division of two. three or four regiments. The number of officers and men in each regiment varies from a few hundred to two thousand.
 The First army is under the con- mand of General Michael Touhat- cheviski who. until the Bolshevik revolution took place, was a simple lieutenant in an infantry regiment. His military education is far from complete, but his general staff is composed entirely of of cers wno formerly belonged r.
 general staff, so that thet :o'apen sate for the deficiencies of their commander in chief.
 The Second army is headed by well organized general staff which includes three colonels who formerly belonged to the Russian general staff. =.
 The commander in chief of the Third army is an individual who, up 10 the time of the Bolshevik revolution, was sergeant in one of the regiments of Siberian Infantry He !s also supported by general staff composed of former Russian staff officers.
 The fact that so many officers of the former Russian army have consented to serve with the Bol- sheviki is one of the worst features of the situation in Russia Without

them the Bolsheviki would have been unable to organize such military forces as are now at their disposal and their dictatorship, based solely on violence, would have been ended long ago.
 The artillery equipment of the Bolshevik armies is declared to be very incomplete A division has, on an average, from five to eight guns. Munitions are said to be scarce and their supply is deficient. Munitions for the infantry also are running short.
 The chief of the central general staff of the Bolsheviki forces is a Lett named Watsetia.

FORTUNES OF WAR %

Prompt relief for the people of Montenegro. who are officially re- ported to be dying from starvation ls urged in a letter written by Alex anGer Devine. an English friend Of Montenegro, to Herbert C. Hoover, the food administrator in Paris, a copy of which has reached New York. In his letter Mr. Devine charged that there had been very gross unfairness, to Montenegro in the endless delays and obstacles winch had been placed in my way in efforts to obtain relief for the Montenegrins.
 Mir. Devlne wrote that he first appealed to the British authorities in behalf of the Montenegrins in 1916, but that up to the signing of the armistice. not as much as a grain Of rice ever was permitted to enter Montenegro After the armistice he renewed his efforts and finally was referred to Mr Hoover in Paris. but for two months was unable to obtain passport 10 go to Paris and see him and Colonel Anderson of the American Red Cross. Finally, MT. Devine wrote he had arrived in Paris to find MT. Hoover absent. Meanwhile, he declared, American relief ships had arrived at Cattaro but ''the relief fell into the hands of the Serbians and aided them in their political purposes aoainst king and country" These delays and obstacles, MT Devine told MT Hoover. demon strated unfairness to Montenegro and, he added. T have no sense of having obtained justice during these long weary months of wait ing"
 Since MT. Devine's letter was written, commission has been sent to Montenegro by the American Peace Delegation in France and has reported that the situation in Monte negro is desperate and the people actually dying from starvation. The American Red Cross has been trying to supply them with food.
