A Veteran SCOTS at
Story of Frozen Troops.


Soldiers in Fighting Stance Found
Frozen in Finland" reads recent head
line in The Star. That makes an old
veteran of the American North Russian
Expedition, 1918-19, shiver; then grin.
Surely the headline writer had not
read the dispatch. But no, the dispatch,
he finds, is worse than the headline.
Unconsciously the old veteran blows
on his fingers. 80 degrees F. below and
fighting hand to hand. Yes when he
and his buddies fought the Bolsheviks
up there on the Arctic Circle in winter,
it had often been lots colder. Yet scme-
how he could not recall that "the cold
numbs the brain" when men clashed
in combat Not in moment of lung
ing bayonet thrust.
It might numb the safely distant
crouching war correspondent, but this
old veteran surmises that when his nimble
fingers wrote the dispatch his brain
was numbed with vodka. Bad enough
the fighting line in the snow; terribly
worse that vodka line in the rear. And
the old veteran thinks back 81 winters.
Poor Bill stopped bullet with his
number on it, Captain" Sure enough
that heap in the snow is Bill. Keep
those machine guns in action, men. My
automatic is no use at present. I'll take
time to straighten Bill out fit for his
soldier box" Respectfully old Bill is
dragged out of the way; turned fiat on
his hack. legs n1Il1ed ollt straight and
heels together; arms folded across his
breast; head and neck adjusted; eyelids
pressed shut. In an hour he will be q
human icicle. A quickly contrived rough
cross of pine branches stands by him to
aid the searchers in case he becomes
covered with snow.
And he recalls that hours after the
enemy had retreated before our blizzard
of bullets, after they had fallen back in
disorder. our men had picked up such

thawed many of them back to life.
Yes, at So degrees F. below zero lone
sentries had stood 20 minutes on duty IN
the penetrating frost and then 40 min
utes off duty at safe distance from
the friendly, though dangerous, stove.
But no lone sentry motionless in his
place of concealment In that stiffening
cold had ever turned into an icy statue
with an expression on its face of grim
watchfulness.
Hmmm, what a story your cores
pondent would make out of his harrow
ing memory. It's black night with q
40mile gale of snow; a spent pony
tugging a sled; half-starved Russki
boy-driver too ill-clad and weak to run
to keep warm; picked up in an exhausted
state and wrapped in all the blankets
and skins of the sled. Long ago he quit
responding to anxious questions of the
warmly dressed but freezing soldier as
to whether he was "kholodna" or
"tiplah"; he has sunk into numb insen-
sibility.
Versts and versts yet to go in the
swirling snow. Peril ever present of
getting of the trodden road on this
broad river and .circling about ever
slower finally to perish. Shaggy pony
staggers indomitably onward; often he
falls to his knees; encouraging voice
and lifting hand help him up, again and
again. The sled with the boy must go
through.
An eternity Of inching along against
the raging blizzard and then. "Slavva
Bogah," CLEANS the window Of the first
log house Of the village.
Another age passes and the pony COL
lapses just at the opening door. In
his arms the soldier carries the notion
less form Of the boy, with nose and
chin and cheeks frosty white. eyes CLASSY
in the welcoming light of the doorway.
Strong motherly "barishna" strips off
his clothing and rolls him in a warm
blanketful of snow; gently chafes fingers
and toes and arms and legs; vigorously
rlbs the neck and spine; then warmth
to his belly and vibration to his chest;
and at the first moan, puts warm tea
down his groggy throat. He will live.
And the soldier sitting with his legs
knee-deep In snow water and arms to
the elbow in tubs of water, while friendly
hands rub snow over face and neck,
feels an inward glow which breaks into
q grin when the rosy-red boy at length
begins to protest about having to sit
naked In that good woman's motherly
arms.
War is dreadful foolshness, but to
the veteran it never is pictured in the
bizarre; it horrif1es at times of COM
bat or in Renaissance, but it is never
pictured as grotesque; frantic or har-
rowing incidents are never funny, but
may present soothing touch Of humor.
We American defenders of Archangel in
the winter campaign feel this way about
1t. We have a fairly good understand
ing Of the why and the how and the
ways and means Of the gallant Finn
defenders. And, as in those dread days
of 81 years ago, we now pity those
astrakhan capped, gray cloaked youths
driven forward to death, not for the
Russian homeland. but for rampant
Marxiaed nihilism. Yet our deepest

To Discuss State
Help for Cities

Tacoma's city controller. Thomas
A. Swayze, was in conference
Thursday with Chester Biesen,
executive secretary OF the Asso-
citation of Washington Cities, on
matters to be taken up at the an
nual convention Of the association
in Everett May 1924.
Biesen came TO Tacoma from
Seattle to check with officials
here. swayze in particular, as he
is the Tacoma member Of the
executive committee Of the asso-
citation.
Wen take up all kinds Of
problems that confront cities In
this state" Swayze said. but
among them will be questions Of
state aid to cities, as our execu-
tive committee chairman, Council
man John f. Carroll OF Seattle,
announced today.
"As Carroll pointed out, in
creased state ALLEGATIONS for mu-
inequalities is one of the important
items. Although ALLEGATIONS were
increased by the 1889 legislature,
some towns are receiving less
than they were before because of
a change in the basis of distrib-
uting highway gas tax funds"
At Seattle, Carroll said cities
should not seek additional allo-
cations for themselves, but should
insist on maintaining the present
distribution basis OF IS per cent of
gasoline taxes and 81 per cent Of
liquor profits.

Revelation that two men are
sought IN connection with a double
murder near Everett swiftly fol-
lowed unearthing Of new clues BY
Tacoma police Thursday.
Evidence linking two suspects
with the case spurred the probe
In three states. Oregon officials
and state authorities were investi-
eating. and California police were
interested In the staying Of the
two men from that state
Tacoma sleuths uncovered a hot
angle in the murder Of Cyril Louis
Abels. Is, and Alfred Ailenson,
81, whose bodies were found in a
wooded AREA about 10 miles from
Everett. when a rifle belonging
TO Abels was found Wednesday in

order to be issued here for a AZ
year-old ex-convict who has served
time both In Washington state
penitentisry and San Quentin
prison.
Police revealed the gun was sold
by a man about 81 years old, and
for that reason believed two men
were linked in the killing. Names
Of the two were withheld, and po-
lice said the name given by the
younger suspect when the gun was
sold probably was q 'phony."
The federal bureau OF invcstisa-
ton took up the hunt Thursday.
FBI agents established jurisdiction

been left in a Portland garage
shortly after the gun was sold
here. The car never was claimed.

Council Looks
Over Properly
Building Sites
Owned by City

City Of Tacoma owns a. least 20
acres Of some Of the finest view
property overlooking the Narrows
and Nsrrows bridge, city council
concluded Thursday after a morn
ingis tramp over some 80 acres
lying mostly on slope from 9Th
ave. 10 the Narrows and fronting
on Jackson Alexander road - OF
jackson ave. as il may be called.
The purpose Of the jaunt was TO
size up the real estate situation in
that district with reference TO ex-
tending about 1000 feet of water
! main and cutting through an ex-
tension Of jackson ave. to connect
with Pearl ST. at about No. 26th.
City Engineer Forsbeck and Cor
poration Counsel Carothers accom-
panied the commissioners party.
Forsbeck said a location for the
road would be determined in few
days. This roadway, ultimately
part OF a marine view drive run
ming northwest to Point Defiance
park, will serve not only the city's
property, but private real estate
adjoining that soon will be ready
TO market.
All the city's own holdings are
in parcels acquired by foreclosure
of delinquent local improvement
district assessments 1t is the
councils idea to plat what the city
owns in general conformity to a
scheme of improvement adopted
by private owners, all looking to
development Of high class resi-
Dental district. Perhaps 10 acres
of the eity's 80 do not lie as favor
ably for view as the main piece
Of around 20 acres.
The councils first step toward
improvement probably will be in
connection with extension Of the
proposed water main for which the
council will support the petition Of
private land owners.
