American forces from Archangel IS
actually under way. according to ca
bile advices to the war department
which stated that all members OF the
3S9th infantry were awaiting eyacua-
ton.
The cablegram also said that the
return of individual soldiers as cas-
uals. in accordance with recent re-
quest of the department, would not
expedite the discharge OF such cas-
nails. since their units would arrive
at home before these individuals.
The withdrawal of the American
forces from northern Russia is in line
with the policy of the American gov
eminent announced by Secretary Ba-
ker before the house military afIalrs
committee last February. AT that
time Mr.. Baker said it had been de-
cided to withdraw all American troops
from the Archangel district as early
in the spring as climatic conditions
would permit.
