I RUSSIANS FAIL
1 TO APPRECIATE
1 ALLIED HELP
f< '
lii VLADIVOSTOK, Feb. i (Corre
spondence of the Associated Press).—
:¥ Intelligent Russians are criticized by
j| the Dalekaya Orkaina for their al
§ leged failure to help themselves in
« their misfortunes. “Newspapers are
•S attacking the Allies," the paper says,
"reproaching them for lack of active
IS assistance.”
jg "Perhaps the allies have not taken
jg all the measures desirable from the
0 Russian point of view, but before re
;i:j proaching them we must in fairness
g ask, what have the Russian citizens
|:j: themselves, especially the lntelli
:*:• gentsia, done for their own defence
& and for their own interests? Are the
g citizens ready to sacrifice even a share
g of their own interests for the common
g cause? With words they are ready
| to do everything but they prove noth
| ing by deeds. Even the privileged
class does not participate in the city
" elections.
_ "Look around! What is going on?
Cafes are crowded with young men
:j who could have served their mother
ill land. There is only talk of profits.
|-| Everyone is engaged in speculation.
:j: The majority are engaged in their
own affairs and have no time for the
||| common cause.
"The Czecho-Slovaks asks the Rus
|:j sians to subscribe a large loan of 5,
000,000 rubles. The subscriptions cov
ered Only 500,000 rubles, and all this
for those Czecho-Slovaks than to
;l; whom half the Siberian intelligentsia
!•: were saved from the Bolsheviki.
“At the outset of the war all women
abroad gave up amusements and be
gan to make things for the soldiers.
$ Alas! We have nothing similar. If
. we should learn that the allies are
really going to leave Russia, the tpa
jority of those who now reproach
them would be the first to rush for a
place on a steamship with the one
aim of running away from the Bolshe
viki. It is high time for the Russians
to muster all their forces into a strong
unit, forget their party quarrels and
enter upon the restoration of a single
Russian people.”

FRANCE WANTS
SUPERVISION
OVK SYRIA
PARIS, Feb 3 (Correspondence of
the Associated Press).—The “rights”
of France to guide the destinies of
Syria, Lebanon and Armenia-Minor
were expounded to the Associated
Associated Press today by M. Gout,
director for Asia in the French for
eign office. M. Gout asserted that it
had long been the role of France to
protect the helpless peoples of the
orient and recalled interventions by
France in Syria and Lebanon to de
fend the Christians and that France
had played a great part in the defense
of the Armenians in 1895 and 1896.
"France,” he said, "worked not only
to protect Christians but she also sent
missionaries into all parts of Turkey,
not for the purpose of proselyting but
for teaching and charitable work. Be
fore the war there were French
schools In all sections of Turkey, and'
in the great towns there were French
hospitals for the care of the poor. In
Syria especially the number of French
schools was considerable. In Beirut
we had a large university, and I must
add that the Americans also had one,
working for civilization of the Syrian
people. A great number of physicians |
were bred in the French universities.”
M. Gout called attention to the fact
that French capital and industry had
created three of the four ports of Asia
Minor, and pointed to the great rail
ways built and controlled by the
French. The first road opened be
tween Damascus and the coast, the
Damascus-Beirut line, was French, he
said. It was also a French society
which, before the war, undertook the
repair of roads in many parts of the
Ottoman empire, and a French com
pany had a concession for a big rail
way in Armendia. The important silk
industry in Syria, he added, had been _
fostered and developed by France. )
“We may point out also the great •:
share France in the public debt of j
Turkey, which is nearly 60 per cent,” j
he continued. “The share of England |
before the war was ten or twelve per ^
cent, that of Italy nearly five per cent, j
and Germany had all the rest. '
“There is another important phase j
of the question. You know about the |
great number of monasteries and re- (
Ugtous institutions in, Jerusalem. For |
our French Catholics Jerusalem is a \
second Rome and they always have ■:
sent money and missionaries to pro- :
mote the Catholic influence in this ;
holy town.
“This sums up a large part of the
claims of France in Asia Minor, and I \
believe that M. Pichon (French for- «
eign minister) was entitled to speak
of our rights there. He was the :
more entitled to do so in view of the •
abominations committed against the
Armenians and Syrians by Turkish ■
Unionists early in the war.”
Referring to the treaty signed by :
France and England while the war ;
was in progress under which France
was to havo supervision of Syria, :
Lebanon and Armenia-Minor, M. Gout j
added:
“At that time France and England \
thought it necessary after the war to i
give all these populations a certain jj
future and autonomy. But we were j
obliged to note that in these coun- !
tries there were a large number of
races and religions. Great differences •
exist between these religious and
races. It is not possible to give these .
countries uncontrolled independence.
Their best people also agree that it is
necessary to have, not a master, but a
sort of arbitrator and guide to civil
isation.”
