Vladivostok Man H er e
Tells of Intrigues in
Far East.

With the arrival in Washington
of Prof. and Mrs. n. j., Dmitrash
and two children directly from
yiadivostok. Siberia. comes the first
eyewitness testimony as to what
happened in that city and. in the
Siberian maritime province when
the moderate Russian government
there was overturned on May IS.
Prof Dmitrash says IL was a mon
archist coup detat.
He and his family, like most Rus
SLAMS OF standing, have been much
reduced in circumstances by the war
and civil turmoil. They are more
than pleased. however, to be alive.
they say. and in a country where
their persons and small possessions
are safe. Prof. Dmitrash was en-
ployed In the Far Eastern University
in Vladivostok and left there only at
the close OF the school term in June.
He has taken temporary residence
here at 111S Fifth street northwest.
Summarizes situation.
He summarizes the political sit
uation in Asiatic Russia substan-
TALLY as follows:
Siberia now has three govern
ments. In the west. stretching as
far east as Lake Baikal, Moscow
Is in full control. To the east of
Lake BaikaI and extending TO the
bounds of the maritime province Is
the Far Eastern Republic with its
capital at Chita. This government
has been independent of Moscow but
on fairly friendly terms with the
Bolshetvists. 1t is controlled by the
members of the cooperative So
cieties and zemstvos or county au-
thorities. in short. men OF the Ker-
ensky or moderate socialist view.
In the extreme East is a new gov
ernment headed by Merkulov. for
meriy an obscure attorney. now
backed by former officers and APP
pointees OF the Car.
Prof. Dmitrash attributes the
success of the Merkulov coup
largely to Japanese financing and
hidden Japanese influence. 1t sup
planted what had been known as
the Maritime provincial govern
ment. liberal -Bolshevist
group which but shortly prior to the
coup was known to be negotiating
with the Far Eastern republic, look
ing to a union of the two. The
OVertnTO" was erected, he says, by
former Kolchak troops under the
lead OF Gen. Verbitsky, assisted by
few OF Semenov's Cossacks.
Japanese Hated.
Japanese troops took no actual
part in the affair. Preparations for
the change were accomplished un-
der guise OF calling a congress in
Vladivostok of all the non- Socialist
parties In the province, he says.
The Japanese military in Siberia
has been withdrawn mostly to the
Vladivostok vicinity. the professor
says, and the number. though con-
siderably reduced from 1919, still
makes a substantial army. A. =
result OF the burning OF villages and
of the Japanese equipping and mu-
nitioning bands. such as Semenov's,
the Russian peasant hostility to
Japanese throughout the country,
the professor says, has shown no
abatement Japanese outside the
towns are still sniped and shot at
wherever they 20. he says.

Women of Paris
Grow Moustaches;
Smoking Blamed
Special Cable 70 The Warrington Herald
and Chicago Tribune.)

ana lribuhe'J
PARIS, Aug. 2l.-Reards and
moustaches are increasing alarm
ingly among women annually, the
doctors blaming cigarette smoking
and alcohol drinking principally for
this phenomenon.
Statistics at the hospitals show
II per cent OF the women inmates
have an abnormal growth of hair
on the upper lip and chin and 81
per cent of the women inmates in
the insane. asylums are bearded or
have moustaches.
Partisan society women, who have
taken up intensive cigarette smok-
ing since the armistice, when Turk
ish scented tobacco again became
available, and who contracted the
American cocktail habit from the
A. z. F., are aghast at the state
ments of leading Paris savants that
tobacco and alcohol are conducive
to unsightly hair.
Leading beauty doctors assert a
big percentage OF their clientele
continually Is under treatment, the
hair roots being electrically burned
out or otherwise eradicated.
Recently II was announced a new
treatment. applying ointment to the
skin which ate away tho hair. had
proven extremely dangerous to the
skin. running the compilations of
hundreds OF women who used 1t a
while. These now are having their
outer epidermis removed, hoping to
regain a fresh clear skin.
"One of the principal reasons why
the new fad of yellow ochro face
powder was adopted so quickly Ia
because so many women are af-
flicted with little moustaches." said
Felix, a leading Rue de la Paix
beauty specialist.
