WAR VETERANS IN MANCHURIA.
Many Farmers Found BY Lytton Group
Who Served Behind Lines in France.

Who Served Behind Lines in France.
BY the Associated Press.
Members Of ;the Lytton Investigating
Commission were surprised, on their re-
cent tour to find many Chinese farmers
in Manchuria who'had7 served with the
Chinese battalions in the war zones
during the world conflict.
These Chinese had acquired smat-
tering of English OF. French, along with
some knowledge OF Western military
tactics and political conceptions.
China sent 175,000 workmen to help
the allied cause. Practically all these
were Shantung men. They served in
Mesopotamia and Africa. as well as in
France, relieving other troops which
went over the top. {
Worked Behind Front.
At Marseille and other ports in
France these sturdy .Shantung men un-
loaded ships. built railways and high
ways, dug trenches and did all sorts OF
heavy work behind the battle lines.
As the Chinese were not under fire
the casualties among them were not
great. They saved their money with
genuine Chinese thrift. But upon their
return to Sfantung they found land
prices so high there they were unable
to satisfy their longing for big farms
and Joined the trek toward Manchuria,
where rich farms could be had at
'T There ear are. no actual records as to
the, number of. men trained in the
Great War who moved northward, but
it Is estimated that at least $4,000 OF
them joined the millions who migrated
to Manchuria from Shantung Province
within the last Il, years, the largest
migration in modern history.
Big Population Increase.
Within 20 years the population Of
Manchuria has increased from 15,000,-
coo to 3o,oQoD0 most of the new
population having arrived within the
last 10 years
While the Chinese farmers as well
as the native Manchurian farmers were
found by agents of the Lytton Commis-
sion who Travelled extensively through
out the entire land to be unfriendly
both to the 'deposed war lord. Chang
generally expressed desire to remain
a part of China, according to reports
received here.
The chief grievance of the Man
churian farmers against Chang Hsiao-
Liang is thatT the Manchurian money
which they received in payment for
their soya beans fell in value until
1t has almost no purchasing power.
Koreans Against Regime. =
Among the e060oo; Koreans who have
settled in Mahchnria farmers prevail
Many of these are political refugees or
men who left Korea without official
permission, and they do not welcome
the creation of a government in Man.
churia supported BY Japan, which may
call them to account and take vigorous
steps to prevent further migration of
Koreans.
The white population in Manchuria
consists chiefly Of Russians, and is
variously estimated at. from 150, ,000sto
100000. These Russians are chiefly
refugees who escaped from the Soviet
territory, but there are also many Boil
shevists in Harbin and the other larger
senters. The japanese civil population
OF Manchuria is estimated at 100000,
and there are now supposed to be about
10000 Japanese &soldiers there in the
army Of occupation.

10000 Chinese guerrillas hitherto op-

impression among foreign observers
here that the guerrillas, are setting the

about the middle of this month.

A T the beginning of 1919, the
"A city of Riga was a peaceful,
more or less prosperous place, to
whose inhabitants the current
tales of Bolshevik activities in
Russia sounded unreal and fan
tastic.
But a Red army came sweeping
west, the White army defend
ing Latvia was routed, and Soviet
commissar took over the govern
ment Of Riga.
And in a very few days Riga
learned that the most fantastic
things it had heard about the Boil
sheviks could be eclipsed by the
sober truth.
George Popoff tells all about this
in THE City of the Red Plague"
which is an eyewitness account of
what happened in Riga during the
half dozen months that the Com
munists were in control.
His book, naturally, is biased
strongly; but most of his state
ments of fact seem to be pretty well
buttressed by documentary evil
dence, and his story makes it clear
that red terror" can be a fine
imitation of hell on earth.
He shows how the Bolsheviks
turned the bourgeoisie out of house
and home and moved proletarian
families into the vacated dwellings.
He tells how all of Riga was ra-
toned, with day laborers getting
excellent food and the erstwhile
upper classes getting nothing but
watery soup.
He describes the gunwomen who
roamed the city to enforce the So
VETS orders.
Murders, arbitrary inprison-
ments, and wholesale executions
and tortures are described over and
over, and the book reaches an ex-
citing climax in its description of
the battle in which the Reds fin
ally were driven out.
All in all, it makes interesting
reading
The book is published by E P.
Dutton, and retails for $3.50.

upon for several days Then with
characteristic abruptness Walter
Dixon decided he would accompany
his wife and that they would de-
part the next week.
Cherry was pleased. The deci-
sion eased her mind about her
mothers health and it also settled
problems that had been bothering
her. The three or four hours she
had been spending every day at her
parents home cut into her schedule.
Each day ended with many things
undone and the tasks had piled up
rather alarmingly. Then, too, she
was learning it is not easy to di-
vide your time, spending half of it
amid luxurious surroundings and
half counting pennies.
In spite of what her father and
mother might say, Cherry knew
they disapproved of Dan. Though
he inquired solicitously about her
mothers health. she knew Dan was
aware of this disapproyal.
Yes. Cherry would be glad when
she could settle down to her own
life. Back in her mind there was
the vague fear she would not admit
even to hirself-the fear that, ever
so slightly, she and Dan might be
drifting apart.
That was too frightful to be rec
ognized.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dixon were to de-
part Wednesday morning. Monday
Cherry telephoned to say that she
would not be out that day. She had
shopping to do and several errands.
If Martin could come for her early
the following day she would spend
all afternoon at Briartop.
She hung up the receiver with a
sense of relief. Pinky scampered
across her path and she picked up
the kitten and held his fur against
her cheek.
you've been neglected, Pinky,'
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-06-27

she announced. @But we're going to
change that. Goodness. how you're
growing"
Pinky arched his back, poked at
the collar of Cherry's dress with
one paw, and seemed to enjoy the
new game.
She put him down again and the
kitten chased across the floor after
imaginary plumber.
The shopping Cherry had to do
consisted entirely Of purchases from
a sand 10-cent store. Mrs. Mo-
reau, who lived upstairs. had bought
some dishes there and Cherry want
ed some like them.

Having mastered several languages and nu-
merous dialects he soon found it possible to
understand his hosts and to make himself
understood by them. They had thought him
dumb. like the Alali creatures, and so were
delighted when it became apparent that he
could utter vocal sounds identical to theirs.
They gave him several instructors, and their
king issued orders that all his people with

great circles far above the right bank of the

There was no shelter. She had to
stand on pavement that seemed to
absorb the suns rays and then
send them up again like heat from
a furnace. Her handkerchief was
limp long before the car arrived.
When it finally came and Cherry
climbed aboard, there was only
room to stand with the other per-
spring straphangers. The motion
Of the car created a breeze, how
ever, and she was grateful for it.

Wednesday" the girl thought.

She had a fleeting picture of her

lawn like clipped velvet. the breeze
rustling through its stately trees,
the garden, broad porches and cool
shaded rooms.
Cherry sighed and wiped her fore
head again. 1t was going to be
even hotter down town.
The car jolted on. The weather
was showing its effects on the dis
positions of passengers. Men and
women pushed by each other i'm
patiently.

the room.
But before he got very far, a
whimsical smile lighted the face Of
the handle-bar mustached Okla
homa Governor. Meeting uni

stopped him and saluted him.
The boy as gravely returned the
salute and Oklahoma's self-admitted

tinued his walk, smile beneath his
mustache.

He had one of those contests with
Mrs. Stella Hamil, Louisiana's ma
tional committeeman, and Mrs.
Ruffin Pleasant, wife of a former
Governor of that state, before the
credentials committee, where his
delegation won out.
Pointing to Mrs. Hamlin, he
shouted:
why, you wouldn't be here if
hadn't written in your name as
committeewoman four years ago"
Mrs. Hamlin replied. Ridiculous!
Why, he never knew there was such
a thing as a committeeWoman. He
hates women in politics. That's why
he wouldn't take his case before the
subcommittee yesterday. Afraid of
the five women on it,"
Later, when Long denounced an
opponent for not contributing "a
dime" to the campaign, Mrs.
Pleasant said:
Say, We wouldn't trust you with
a thin dime"
Of that is made the kingdom of
politics.

palmiest days.
And what is making the Demo-

the maneuvers of the orchidaceous
Senator Huey P. (KingfiSh) Long OF

and other picturesque characters
that only democracy can bring

SO, if you'll forgive the old mas

this play that promises to be the
biggest WOW of the year.

When they finally reached Twelfth
street and Central avenue, there
was a general scramble to be out
first. Cherry hung back purposely
and was among the last to leave.
It was a blocks walk to the s.

there only few times. The dozens
of counters with their apparently
unlimited assortment of articles
still amazed her.
