Maj Allen has been stationed in
California since his return from Rus
sla where he was with the American
army Of occupation, His wife who was
formerly Miss Celeste Glenn. and Mrs.
Glenn, his mother law, will go with
MIN 10 Honolulu and he hopes TO have
his sister, Miss Hazel Allen, so along
too II the war department can be per-
suaded TO honor his request for per-
mission.
Maj. Allen is not enthusiastic over
the way the army acquitted itself in
Russia. He attributes the failure. which
is generally admitted on Lall sides, to
a lack of definite policy and to the
propaganda that was being spread over
the country by one Of our allies which
Is generally regarded as having de-
signs upon Siberia.
Maj. Allen was in Siberia when the
anarchists issued their proclamation
abolishing the right to possess women
having reached the ages of II to 81,
and giving all children having reached
the age Of one month to the govern
ment to rear and educate. Naturally
he doesn't think much of the Russian
as general proposition. A great many
of the upper class. he says, are highly
educated and cultured but the ignorant
have the upper hand in that
country. He sees no end to the present
but intimated that Japan
might have in mind, from the maneu
vers he witnessed, the occupation Of
the country.

so Russian anarchists and |. w. VS.

they are awaiting deportation, before
