Details of Operations.


Regarding the American operations
in Russia. Senator Hitchcock gave
the following details in specific reply
to Senator Johnsons recent request
for information:
I'VE sent about 10000 men to Vladi-
vostok, the Pacific port, and about
5000 to Archange1. the arctic port in
European Russia and Murmansk. the
port which leads to the Thurman
coast.
Those landing at VIadivostok are,
for the most part, still there or in
that neighborhood. Those landing at
Archangei and across the White sea
at Murnansk, while still holding those
ports in connection with British and
French troops, have penetrated a short
distance inland. in each case probably
about 100 miles. as a measure of pro-
lection for their bases. In one case
they have gone up river; in the
other they have held the line Of rail-
way-both means of transportation.
In all cases the occupation of these
Russian ports was made as war meas

Reniarking that the administration
had been attacked. on account of its
Russian policy, both because it has
not acceded to the allies desire to
send large forces into Russia for paci-
ficatfon purposes and because the
American forces arc fighting the boil

Geographically, of course. there is
a Russia still. but in a political sense
there is no responsible Russian gov

or any other government can deal"
Citing the bolsheyik reign of terror
and the movement to protect the

Hitchcock said the boIsheviki, in

a battle front inland nearly 5000
miles.
The American and allied operations
at Fladivostok saved stores worth
millions of dollars from German cap

at Arcllangel. Senator Hitchcock told
the Senate. He also said the Thurman
coast and harbor were seized when it
was learned the Germans had 10000
men headed for that district, with
plans to establish a submarine base
af AEurmansk. Archangel, too, was
held. he said. to prevent its becoming

Offset to German Acts.

Thus we and the allies seized
these highly important strategic
points with a handful OF soldiers as
an important offset to German opera
tons in Russia.
There is no Russia. What was
Russia is a vast disorganized ag
gregation of local governments.
Lenin and Trosky have the great
cities of Petrograd. Moscow and some
others, and thus have the center of
the wrecked nation, but il is the most
unhappy, most lawlesS. brutal and
most bloody. Other parts OF Russia
are comparatively calm and orderly.
The very fact that there is a line
of communication across Siberia 5000
miles long from Vladivostok, where
our troops are. to the Cra1 noun
tains. where the troops of the Ufa
government and CZechs are together
with a small force of British and
French, is the best evidence that we
and the allies are on good terms with
the Russians and are there as friends,
and not as enemies"
