RUSSIANS
 TERRORIzEDBY
 TERED GUARD

VLADIVOCTOK, Feb. 10 Gore |spondence of the Associated Press) = The Russian peasants hate the Red Guard a hundred times more than they ever hated the agents of the former Russian emperor, according to q traveller from Moscow as quoted in the Omsk newspaper Slovo. Perhaps the traveller says, this may account for some of the fierceness and ruth lessness of the Bolshevik rule.
 Under the emperor's regime, he says, the murderer of village con- stable would have been shot and the excutioens would have stopped there; but the Bolsheviki will shoot scores of peasants for the murder of a Red Guard.
 All the way from Moscow to Tam boy could be seen people called "sack-carriers and women who had left their towns or villages in the hope of finding elsewhere bread or wheat. The Bolsheviki had orders to shoot all sack-carriers, women, child ren or old men whether they were in quest of bread for themselves and their starving families or to sell for higher prices. And they were shot. The traveller claims to have seen some of these people running along the tops of railroad cars, jumping from one to another, with the Red Guards shoot ing at them from the platform The meanings of those struck down were heard far into the night.
 The train passed Tambov, Atakar, Balashev, all situated in fertile corn country. But nowhere was there bread even for the Russians who had raised the corn. It had been exported, nobody could say where.
 A student member of the committee to fight counter revolution, who was on the same train, admitted that he and his friends knew that the Social | sheviki were not counter-revolution ists, but the committee, he said was obliged to view them as such if they wanted to continue to rule. "If com munism," he said, twill not fit the Russian people, we shall have to aban- don the power, but in that case we shall act in fashion to be remem- bered for long time."
 The train passed mfitsst trains going to the front. The soldiers ap- peared gloomy and sleepy, principally sleepy. The traveller saw some look ing for a place to lie down, but an officer, carrying whip, motioned them out. Their grumblings were silenced by the whip or by the sight of bayonet glistening in the hands of a sailor who accompanied the of- ficer.

say that this visit had to be delayed
because the Archduke's trousers had
disappeared, having been stolen. His
attaches had to do some quick work to
borrow another pair inasmuch as the

archduke's clothing month ago.
When he visited the allied mission he
presented his plan for new govern
ment. which was tacitly accepted.
Representatives of the two govern
ments visited Premier Jules Pedl and
other members of the Hungarian cab

sign, 1t being declared that they had
been unable to keep order and were
not representatives of the nation.

playing in a barn on the Detrick farm
near this borough. shortly after 3
o'clock today came across the body
of a soldier laying in pile of hay.
Along side the body was revolver
and an American flag. The children

the man is unknown in this vicinity.
The county physician and coroner

Mr.. Hines is understood to consider
tht two main points are involved in

BeIIoff Alleges DiIatory Tac-
tics Are Being Used BY
Representatives

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. SIT
looks to me as If dilatory tactics
were used by our representatives in
Washington, and that they hold
lightly the loss of life of Middlesex
county residents" said Acting Direc-
Freeholders, in opening the discus
sion at the. board meeting yesterday
regarding the explosion at Raritan
Arsenal.
These remarks were occasioned by
the kilograms printed exclusively in
the Perth Amboy EVENING NEWS
from Senator Joseph F. Frelinghuy-
sen and Congressman Thomas j.
Scully in reply to kilograms from
Prosecutor Joseph e. Stricken asking
for an immediate investigation.
Immediately after the Morgan ex-
plosion the fourth and fifth of last
October, the Board of Freeholders
conducted several Investigations of
munition plants in this vicinity, and
each time were informed that the
explosives would be rapidly removed.
Not at all satisfied with the results
obtained an endeavor was made to
conduct an investigation in company
with, representatives from Washing
ton, which never materialized.
Letters from Washington have
been repeatedly received by the
board from the War Department
telling of conditions as they We're
supposed to exist, and pointing out
the harmless character of materials
stored at Morgan and Raritan.
Saying, IT very much regret that
the officials did not see fit to take
the matter up with us, and that
something should be done In the
matter Immediately" Freeholder
Clarence M. Haight moved that Sem
ator Frelinghuysen be asked to meet
with the board as soon as possible
In an endeavor to have the menace
to this county removed. The unani-
nous approval of the board was
given and a thorough investigation of
the matter Is assured.
Freeholder e. Leon Loblein VEN
tured the opinion that the govern
ment had no idea of removing the
explosives from this locality.
