along the railways there is a sullen- ness and unfriendltness which did not exist a month ago. This is due, be- sides the Cossack incident, to g. re- fusa1 of General Graves to respond to appeals by the inhabitants along the Ussuri and Anaur railways and the Suchan mines district, where the Americans are stationed for protec- tion against outrages by Russian sol diers. To these appeals, as well as a request from the Japanese in the Blagiovestchnesk for a company of troops to fight the so-called Bolshe- wiki, General Graves has made the same reply, that he would be exceed ing his authority and violating the American policy toward Russia.
 Out of all of this has grown the charge that General Graves has not shown proper spirit of cooperation and has displayed tendency to pro-, Bolshevism.

Propaganda Against
 America in Russia
(Continued From Page one.)

(Continued From Page One-)
 Other diatribes have been received in silence. and as a consequence the loyal friends of the United States among the Russians are wavering. The silence and do-nothing policy of the Americans is plainly getting on the nerves of the Russians. France and England have few troops here, and these are not actively engaged, but their commissioners are visiting and counselling the Omsk government with the result that they are being credited with being the best friends of Russia. The Japanese are re- garded as having rendered positive service in a military way. Only the Americans to whom the Russians looked for help and sympathy, are considered to have failed, not be- cause of their failure to send troops "a hope which has long since been abandoned-brtf for lack of moral and material support such as other na tions are giving.

indicating Mexico's stand relative to the proposed League.
 The resolution regarding the League of Nations was introduced on Dec 15' Just before the adjournment Of the Senate upon the completion of the first half of the present session us appearance in print today was the first intimation that such action had been officially projected. The lack of a quorum was given as. the reason the resolution was not acted upon.
 The news article carrying the text Of the resolution quotes Sanchez Azcona, senator from the Federal district and chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. as as serting that the majority Of the Sen ate favors the League and the par ticipation of Mexico in it. Senor Azoona declares also that while he has no official ground for the state ment, het is sure that the principIes of the League of Nations are in line with the ideals maintained by Prezi- dent Carranza.

An Impregnablc Fortress
The golf course is on French soil,
and far above the club house is a
great modern fortress, one Of many

coast. Apparently an attackingg fleet
would have very poor success
here, on account of the great
range of the guns in these for

at which the guns are situated.

Nice, Il Disappointing City
Our seven days stay, amid scenes
Of bright gaiety in the balmy air of
the Riviera, was certainly a wonderful
change from the scenes in the areas
In which we had been living, and we
enjoyed every minute of the visit.
After a day spent in Nice we de.
cded that we had been fortunate in
having been forced to seek accommo.
dations farther up the line. for the
men who had stopped there had done
little more than visit a few cafes and
cabarets in the city, and admitted that
their stay in Nice amounted to very
little more than a visit to Troyes or
Tonnerre, in our own training area.
Good Work of "Y"
In the leave areas the Y. NJ. c. A.
did a wonderful work. At Nice "the
lefty" casino built on piles out in
the sea, was leased for six months at
a cost of $4,000, for the use of the en-
listed men. Movies and libraries and
reading rooms We're maintained, while
a cafateria and canteen furnished re-
freshments. Many American Y. NJ. c.

sino, which we We're allowed to visit

Monaco Most Ancient City
The history of Monaco dates back
20 the time of Hercules, 1t having been
placed under his protection by the
Ligurians.
In 1893 it was annexed to France,
but released in 1914 and since that
time has remained a separate princi
pality.
The city of Monaco Is built on II
great rock which rises perpendicuarly
from the sea to a great height, and
is joined to the shore by narrow
strip of land The walls Of the old
fortress have crumbled and fallen
away, except in a few places, and beau
tiful flower gardens are cultivated in
ledges in the great rock. The palace
of the Prince occupies a prominent
position in the town. Part of this
building dates from the fifteenth cen
tury, the facade Is mounted by
Moorish-style tower and the entrance
is guarded by sentres resplendent in
uniforms of red, blue and gold.
The Prince maintains an Oceano-
graphic Museum. in which are kept
specimens of deep sea life which he
has taken in his journey to the various
oceans of the world, Many of the
specimens are alive and are kept in
the aquariums, which the soldiers
were allowed to visit.
