Difficult Work Well Done.


The citation which accompanied the
Distinguished Service Medal which was
given Colonel Richardson declared
that the decoration was conferred for
exceptional merltorious and distin-
guished service as commanding gen
eral of the American Expeditionary
Forces In North Russia. Then there
was added a statement to the effect
that In his skillful handling of many
difficult situations Richardson had per.
formed q signal service for his gov
eminent.
In that part of the citation which
speaks o, the skillful handling of
many difficult situations perhaps is to
be found one reason why as yet the
intimate history Of the troubles In
North Russia, which brought about
allied Intervention, and the subsequent
appearance of United States troops
in the northern field, has not been CIV
en- to the public.
The Americans not only handled
difficult situations skillfully in North
Russia, but they did considerable
fighting. General Pershing assigned
Richardson to the work In North Rus
STA, not only because of his known
ability as an army officer, but because
he was accustomed to the ways of the
northern peoples. 1t may seem a bit
curious to some persons, but the TWEEN
ty years experience of this American
soldier in Alaska was of extraordinary
value to him when he entered the field
in North Russia and did his work,
which was a combination of fighting,
construction and Cancellation.
The American soldiers of the Arch
angel expedition probably will be CIV
en- a special ribbon for that service.
They suffered many hardships of va
rious kinds and they fought just as
well as American troops fought else
where, and it should be remembered
that this in large part was after the
signing of the armistice in .Novem-
Der, 1918.

there are still perhaps some interna-

where huge sums of money were al
legged to have been taken from the
government on war contracts.

recognition OF the soviet government

A warning was sounded for the
United States to be on guard against

at the base of all red movements.
and to be on guard against pacifists.

identical with those Of the reds.
In an address at the afternoon ses-

Owsley said assurance had been given

speeding up disqualification and to

IMPROVEMENT SEEN
 IN FARM INDUSTRY
By Associated Press

Washington, April 2.-Acting Di- rector Davis of the war finance de- partment, in statement today, noted marked improvement in the agricul- tural industry and better outlook for business generally" on the basis of April reports from corporation agencies.
 Live stock producers and farmers generally" the statement said, are reported much more confident be- cause of improved market conditions.
 Bank deposits have increased in many agricultural communities and the country banks are generally in a stronger position than they have been for long time. Best of all, confi- dence, is returning and with it the trend of business is toward a resto- ration of more normal conditions all along the line.' *S
 Up to March 31, the statement said. the corporation had approved loans aggregating s32s;s25,6s7. of which s214,1S7,761 was to banks, s5S,3s7,s16 to co-operatives and s5o,25o,12o for export purposes.
