RUSSIAN WAR
PRISONERS IN
SADPLIGHT
OMSK, Siberia, March 4 (Corre
spondence of the Associated Press).—
A Russian schoolmaster, who was a
prisoner of war in Germany, and who
has arrived at Omsk, has given to the
newspaper Zarya a narrative of his ex
periences since reaching Russia
which throws considerable light on
the conditions in the Bolshevik zones
of Russia. The schoolmaster said
that almost all the released Russian
prisoners were suffering from hunger
and practically destitute of clothing.
At first they were received with ani
mosity but later the Bolsheviki or
ganized propagandist bureaus where
socialist literature was distributed to
the prisoners in an attempt to con
k vert them to Bolshevism. Meetings
were held and offers were made to
enroll the prisoners in the Bolshevik
armies under the following condi
tions:
A gift of two suits of clothing, 600
rubles in cash, provisions for two
weeks. The officers were offered from
1,000 to 2,600 rubles in cash. The Bol
sheviki, he said, had no success in re
cruiting the officers, but some sol
diers, who were in the worst physical
condition, accepted their proposals.
The majority, however, deserted at
the first possible moment.
The schoolmaster said that the dis
cipline in the Bolshevik army is ex
ceedingly rigorous. .For the least in
fraction the soldiers are shot. The
privileged class in the Red army is
made up of Magyars, Letts and sailors.
The rest are supported as outcasts
and as possible fodder for cannon.
The members of the Russian middle
class are forced to labor In the trench
es or fortifications or to serve as
servants for* the Bolshevik soldiers.
The Bolsheviki, the returned pris
oner said, attribute great importance
to their so-called “spying oratdrs,"
who secretly remain behind In the.
towns evacuated by the Red Guard
, and, try to corrupt and win over the
troops of the Russian National army.
The Red Guard leaders declare that
it is only over their lifeless bodies ;
:hat the allies will take the “commune I
jf the north," a name which they give I
.0 Petrograd. 1
At Petrograd, the schoolmaster said, s
ill the workingmen between 17 and 46 1
are mobilized. A large number of 1
military schools have been opened for 1
the army. Trotzky, the Bolshevik war *
minister, was accorded an aviation
pilot’s license. To celebrate the anni
versary of the Bolshevik coup d’etat
heavy additional taxes were imposed
on the bourgeois class and extensive
displays of fire-works were held in
the principal cities.
Throughout the country were or
ganized “begging committees” who
had the right to requisition everything
that pleased them. By a special de
cree were established “passports of
the socialist classes” on which were
inscribed the number of rations re
ceived. On the bourgeois passports
are entered the number of tasks to
the credit of the holder, such as the
cleaning of streets and barracks.
VISCOUNT GREY IS
NOT TOTALLY BLIND
LONDON, April 10 (by Associated
Press).—The widely published report
that Viscount Grey, who was foreign
minister in Mr. Asquith's cabinet, and
whose speeches in the House of Com
mons in 1914 were a powerful influ
ence in making up the mind of the
British piiblic for war, had become
totally blind was exaggerated.
Writing- to a friend who had sent
him condolences, Lord Grey replied:
“I. lost the power of reading some
months ago and dry-fly fishing became
impossible last year, as I could no
longer see the rises. Salmon fishing,
I hope, will still btf possible. I am
glad to see the great progress made
at Paris with the project of a league
of nations.’’
Lord Grey made his last public ap
pearance a few months ago when he
delivered an address in London in sup
port of the league of nations.
