Dreary Picture of
Caucasus Drawn By
American Food Agents
Don COssacks Weak and Reported
Ready to Compromise With
the BOlsheviki

Paris, April 1o-Thursday-A dreafy
picture of conditions in the Caucasus is
drawn in the reports made by the Amer
Jean food administration agents at NBa-
tum and at Novorossiysk to the Paris
headquarters. The Georgian government
is described as irresponsible and tempo
rary but nevertheless the Georgian army
is pressing north and attacking the Ku-
ban Cossacks in efforts to extend the
Georgian boundaries and thus making the
Situat ton more difficult for the Don Co.'S
sacks and the Kuban CosSacks who are
operating against the bolsheviki on the
north with limited forces. A British war
ship at Novorossiysk is stabilizng the
situation there.
Both the Dekinne government at
Ekaterinodar and the Don Cossack gov
eminent at Rostov are described as weak
and the< situation as so chaotic generally
that there is danger that the bolshevi1i
with the ending of winter and the i'm
provement of the roads will overrun the
entire territory. The report says it is
now rumored both governments are ready
to compromise with the bolsheviki but
that the volunteer armies appear pa
triotic and willing to fight until they are
exterminated.
Considering the general public sentiment
in the district the report states that there
seems to be no interest in allied aims and
purposes and that the majority generally
express regret that they did not espouse
the German cause, since the allies are re-
fusng to assist in restoring order.
The British occupancy in the southern
| Caucasus, according to the report ex-
tends from Batum to Baku, but there is
little evidence of British u nancy else
where Oil is being proNs in small
quantities at Baku, but the i>ral govenn-
ment is interfering and the oil is chiefly
used for local consumption.
The Armenian refugees concentrated be-
hind Batum are reported in bad condition
but are being partially. relieved by the
Armenian committee and they will be
further helped by the food cargoes now
on the way from America to be sold
against obligations entered into by the
Armenian provisional government. 1T is
too late to supply seed to the Caucasus
for this season, the agents say.
At Novorossiysk the refugees are with
out funds and undergoing great priva-
| items. The natives there are abundantly
supplied with deprecated money and
seem able to buy enough food to sus-
| tain them. Cloth, shoes, the larger agri-
| cultural implement and even garden tools
are not obtainable.
