Washington, Aug. %. - Voyaging
around the world to reach their
homes, 7S0 Russian waits. all that
have been accounted for of probably
5000 children sent out of Petrograd
by their parents when revolution
gripped the old Russian capitol, arc
on their way from San Francisco
to New York by way OF the Panama
Canal, They came from Vladiyostoit
under the care of the American Red
Cross Of which they have been wards,
for two years. They are going back
TO Petrograd after suffering and
wanderings that for some Of them
have blotted out every recollection
Of their parents, the places of their
birth or even of their own names.
Speaking of the experiences OF the
children who range in age from 3
to II years, a statement by the Red
Cross said:
THE long journey writes the last
chapter in a history OF wandering and
adventure in q revolution torn coun-
try, that can hardly ne matched in
the whole record of world upheaval.
in the last six years" the announce
ment says. at seems almost q tale
out of the Old Testament or Greek
Mythology, and thousand years from
now, 1t Is perhaps not too much TO
say, the Russians with their dramatic
instinct and mythicism will have made
it a part of their rich folk lore"
When the revolution broke out in
Russia, the report continued, many
parents in Petrograd decided to send
the youngsters into peaceful Siberia
until the trouble was over" They
were sert east in charge of nurses
and teachers.
Later, barrier Of fire marking
the battle lines Of the opposing Rus
sian and Czech armies had been
stretched between the youngsters and
their homes. Months passed. Winter
arrived. funds we're exhausted and
hunger and wac horrors menaced the
wanderers.
The Omsk government, appealed to
for help, passed il on to the Red
Cross.
Group after group was taken over
by the Red Cross, which established
colonies in western Siberia and had
apparently. solved the problem Of car
ing for its charges when the battle
line swayed eastward and the boil
sneviki captured town after town.
Groups of the children barely escaped
capture. Finally it was decided to
take them to Vladivostok.
"Three trains of specially equipped
box cars. with a guard of American
doughboys transported the precious
cargo on a journey lasting several
weeks through a country stripped
hare of provisions" the report con-
tfiued 1T may DE said that lngenu-
ity was taxed to the utmost in OBJ

Finally the children were settled at
Russian islands in Vladivostok harbor

hospitals were established, natural tai

larger girls took q course OF training
