1t would be a foolish individual

Mr.. Westlake further states in the
letter that the schoolhouse. besides
being old, is insanitary and damp.
that the walls of the building and the
books and contents of the rooms
grow moldy from the dampness.

REDS MASS TROOPS

Threat Against Japan Seen
in Concentrating BoIshevik
Soldiers Near Manchuria.

Soviet Army, Badly Clothed, But
Well Armed, Being Aug
mented Daily.

HARBIN, Manchuria. February %.
Military operations by the Russian
bolsheviki against Japanese forces
in Siberia are believed to be fore
shadowed by concentrations of soviet
troops in the eastern end of the
country. There were $4,000 bolshe-
vik soldiers in Chita recently, and
more are said to be arriving at in
teryals. Units are declared to be
proceeding to points farther east. as
sembling principally in the Primorsky
district and along the Manchurian
frontier. While badly clothed and
we'll armed and under severe dis
cipline.
Eighteen thousand troops have ar
rived at Verkhnie Udinsk from Mos
cow. At Khabarovsk. on the Amur
river, about 10000 bolshevik troops
are concentrated and these are grad
uaIly being moved south to points on
the Imam and UsSuri rivers The
official reason given by the bolsheviki
for dlspatching troops to Khabarovsk
IS that there are large supplies of
grain there, sufficient to maintain the
troops for a year On the other
hand. reports from there indicate that
the supplies available are sufficient
for about month.
To increase the regular and guerrilla
forces the bolshevik authorities are
said to be mobilizing the population
of the Russian far east. This step
would have the double purpose of in
creasing the military forces and of
disintegrating, by calling into the
service Of the existing government
the men Of the Kappel and Semenoff
anti-bolshevik armies. still more or
less intact beyond the Manchurian
eastern frontier. The work of mo-
bilization is meeting with some op-
position from the people. it is said.
Troops are distributed along the
whole line of railway from Chita east
to the Manchurian frontier. At Man
chuli, on the border, bolshevik or
ganizations have been formed and are
asserted to be smuggling agents
through into Manchuria for the work
of propaganda Activity is noticeable
in the movement of locomotives and
cars from the Pssuri railway. (con-
Meeting Khabaroysk and Nikolsk) to
the Amur railway which forms the
connecting link with Transbaikalia
through Russian territory.
Food supplies are being moved by
rail from Vladivostok into the
Primorsk province and attempts have
been made to smuggle arms into these
regions.
- The bolsheviki fear, according to in.
formation received here, that Tho
Japanese may create an opposition
buffer state" in the Primorsk regior
by spring, in which event they NIGH
make use of the Kappel and Semenof
troops. whose long experience ir
guerrilla warfare would be extremely
valuable. The appointment of the
Japanese general. Tachibana. to com.
mand troops in SihsfiG is commented
upon as significant
