INTER-ALLIED MISSION
VAS CALLED UNFAIR
That Impression Prevails Throughout
the Ukrainian Army and the Sol
diers Were Much Wrought Up
Over the Situation.

Headquarters of the West Ukrainian
Army, Chodroff, May Correspondence
Of the Associated Press The impress
sion prevails throughout the Ukrainian
army that the inter allied mission (which
visited Lemburg in the latter part of
February to negotiate an armistice be-
tween the Ukrainians and Poles was
unfair in its proposals for the armi-
stice
The Ukrainian soldiers were so
wrought up over this point that they
fred upon the correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press who crossed from the
Polish to the Ukrainian lines with the
intention Of proceeding to Stanislau, the
capital of West Ukraine
1t was pointed out by the commander
Of the troops, General Pavlenko, that,
while the Ukrainians demanded that
the river San thus including Lemburg,
their western border extend as far as
the entente allies proposed that his troops
should give up Lemburg and all the
territory they had conquered and retire
on line to the east OF Lemburg and
also to surrender the oil basins to the
southwest of that city.
II was stated that the inter-allied
mission paid but two brief visits to dis
cuss the subject. First the mission came
to deliver a quasiultimatum regarding
truce which was accepted by the
Ukrainians, although hostilities were
stopped at a moment when the Ukrai-
mans we're preparing to take the city of
Lemburg.
The Ukrainians were disappointed be
cause when the mission visited them
for second time, on Feb. 26, the al
lied representatives went only to Chodor-
off to meet General Petlura, although
the mission had been invited to Stanis-
lau and the Urainians had hoped and
expected they would visit their capital
city.
The talk with General Petlura came
to nothing. The Ukrainians declare
that it was too evident that the mission
was preiudiced in favor of the Poles
and they add that the Ukrainian officers
say their own men would refuse to obey
if they were ordered to retreat from pc.
sitions they had won and the land which
they declare is purely Ukrainian.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS
IN GERMAN CARS
Were Recently Sentenced to 20 Years for
Desertion and for Joining German
Deserters Concerned in
Theft,

Coblenz, May 3. Correspondence of
the Associated Press) Two American
soldiers who went ahead of the army Of
occupation during its march across Rhen-
ish Prussia last December, donned Ger
man army uniforms and had series of
thrilling adventures, after a courtmartial
recently were sentenced to 20 years at
hard labor. The men, both privates,
were charged with desertion in addition
to eight other offenses connected with
their runaway trip.
According to the testimony brought
out at the courtmartial, both men spoke
little German and after going ahead
Of the advancing troops, fell in with a
number of German soldiers, also desert
ers. The Germans had stolen lot Of
food, wearing apparel and other articles
of value and, witnesses said, induced the
Americans to assist the Germans in res
cuing the stolen property from cache.
The two priyates, Frederick Richman
and Frank Richards, probably were the
first Americans TO enter Coblenz, as they
were more than week ahead of the
schedule of the third army in its march
toward the Rhine. It was in a suburb of
Coblenz that the Germans had hidden
their booty--in the basement of Ger
man woman's house. In some way the
Coblenz police heard Of the thefts and
for several days and nights had guards
watching for the thieves to appear to
cart away their loot.
When two supposedly German soldiers
appeared one night with sacks and start
ed to pack up the articles and refused
to heed repeated German commands to
halt" the German policemen began to
fire. One man fell, wounded in the arm,
and the other, after a chase, was caught.
When the two were taken to the German
police station il was discovered they
were Americans and they were held un-
iii offers of the American army ar
rived
Under the circumstances, after an in
vestigation the Americans decided not
TO file any charge against the German

Land Trouble in Finland.

Finland stretches across alHest ex- aetiy the same degrees Of altitude as Alaska and eevers 144252 square miles. of which 79.7 per cent. is forest and uncultivated land including rocks and marshes: 11.7 per cent. water; 5.7 per cent. cultivated, and 2.s per cent. pas ture land.
 Official figures of Dec. 31. 1916. gave Finland 3.325.o03 inhabitants. 521 POS living in thirty-eight towns and 2.se3,- 7e5 in the country The density pop ulation is little over 23 to the square mile.
 Compared with ether European countries. agricultural industry in Finland is recent. At the end of the middle ages the country north of lat itude 62 degrees, except along the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia. was lit tie cultivated. At the end of the six teenth century state revenues were obtained from fish and game. Of such small value was the land even during the seventeenth century that man could settle where he wished and claim what he liked; to obtain favor able ground for hunting, fishing and cultivation the pioneer usually bull: his home many miles from his near est nelghbor.
 Because of the rapid increase of Ranulation during the last century, together with greatly improved ia . ciiities for communication and the augmented value of forest products, the acquisition of land by the landless has become difficult. This is at pres ent one of the chief causes of grave social problem in Finland.
