GRANGE found it eXpedient TO accord OIL
4 cia recognition TO the dc facto govern
ment set up by General Baron Peter Wran-
gel in Crimea, and to do so without IN
timating in advance TO its associates that
ii entertained so bold plan. Its reasons,
as coniided TO our government, are that
Wrangel has clements of military strength
that may yet rescue Russia from Bolshevism;
that he will guarantee Il democratic gov
eminent and unified nation if he triumphs
over the Red forces. and he is the heir to
the aspirations and the revolutionary struc-
ture of Admiral kolchak
The most important of these considera-
lions, OF course, is the military power OF
the new white hope Can lie muster q
sufficient force either soon or late, to crush
the anarchy which centcrs III the regime OF
Ncolai Ienine? Can he hope to do what
Denikinc failed 10 do and what Kolchak
failed TO do? Will the Russian people rally
to his support after he has achieved mill
tary victory?
France seems to think all this is not only
possible. but is likely. That General Wran-
gel is 10 mere dress parade soldier and his
career is one TO appeal strongly to fighting
men is a fact which tho records disclose.
After the war with Japan, this officer, then
colonel, assumed command of the "Cheva-
lier Garde," n crack cavalry regiment sta
toned III Petrograd as a bodyguard for the
Gar. For years he remained at that post.
Then, when the world war came, he led his
dashng troopers to the front. lie partc-
pated in the Russian drive into East Prus-
sia in 1914. and it fell to his lot to lead
hazardous charge against q massed artillery
position of the Germans. 1t seemed to OBJ
servers that such charge was suicidal, but
Colonel Wrangal did not hesitate. Riding at
the head of his men, he swept down upon
the enemy ana captured half Il dozen bat
teries. losing more than half Of his regiment
in thu action. lie himself was severely
wounded.
For this gallant deed Colonel Wrange
was promoted 10 be brigadieI general and
awarded the Cross or St. George the high
est Of Russian military decorations. He
fought as gallantly through the remainder of
the war. rising 10 command an army corps.
This record OF service, it is said by his adj
mirers, has attracted TO his standard more
than 100 900 veterans of the COssack tribes
who recognize in him the spirit OF born
fighter and the genius OF a born cavalry
man.
bravery, but it does not necessarily mean
that he can meet and defeat the Red armies.
1t is his hope. it is explained, TO place him
self at the head Of 10000 mounted troops.
and with that swiftly moving force strike
the Reds a series of lightnng-like blows
which will not only defeat them, hut
eventually demoralze the whole Soviet
fighting force
