I-ONDON, Mar. 25 —Use of only
volunteer force of Allied troops to
maintain order in Ukraine is re
quested by the representatives of
Russian political organizations in
London in a statement issued here
purporting to set forth their views.
. The statement expressly declares
that except for the assistance of
“a small Allied detachment that
could be brought from the Black
Sea to maintain order in the Uk
j raine, the Russians ask for no Allied
troops at all, only for material.
Russia is able and willing and much
prefers to rehabilitate herself with
her own forces.”
They also ask for war material,
rifles and especially aircraft and
tanks. These, they say, should be
supplied to Russia's own army com
prising 250.000 men under Admiral
Kolchak, with headquarters at Omsk,
and another 250,000 men under the
command of General Denikine, who
is reported to have just joined
forces with those of the Cossack
leader on the Don, General Kraz
noff. The Russians appeal also for
moral Allied support and recogni
tion. Bolshevism must be placed
outside the pale of society and de
clare that ‘‘such a pronouncement
on the part of the Allies has never
yet been made, but would have
tremendous influence and import
ance.”
A plan of military operations
aimed at the Bolsheviki is suggested
by the Russian delegation. It pro
poses that the forces of Admiral
Kolchak and General Denikine be
joined and adds that if this were
done three-fourths of the task would
be accomplished and “the collapse
of Bolshevism would be only a mat
ter of weeks.” The next step pro
posed would be to sever the Bolshe
vik connections between north and
south Russia. The Russian delega
tion pointed out that General Deni
kine is being assisted by the Allies
from the Black Sea, from which he
was only six hours distant and they
asserted that as soon as he had
enough material he would move
north and join Admiral Kolchak, and
move toward Tsaritsin, an import
ant strategic center in Southeastern
Russia.
They declare that the armies of
General Denikine and Admiral Kol
chak are “large and well organized
but are now separated by the Bol
sheviki: and we are asking that thev
shall be supported. The physical
force of Bolshevism can be easily
and quickly dissipated in this
fashion "

BERXE—Seldom has a victorious
army come to so miserable an end
as that of the 180,000 Germans
commanded by Field Marshal Von
Mackensen, who were driven out of
Rumania after the signing of the
armistice.
On their way home through Hun
gary the redoubtable divisions which
had accompanied Von Mackensen
in triumphal march through Tran
sylvania and Rumania lost, sold ar
were robbed of virtually' all their
belongings. One division. the
Eighty-ninth, which had fought vic
toriously in Poland and Lithuania,
escaped into Germany' without as
much as a horseshoe nail of its
property and, clad in ridiculous dis
guises of shabbiest civilian clpth
ing and Austrian uniforms sold to
them at Raab, they said, at mon
strous prices. The story of their
inglorious homeward journey' as told
by' a member of one of the German
divisions to the Schlesische Zeitung
follows:
“Orders had been given that
bloodshed should be avoided, so
the victors of Hermannsradt and
Rimiku turned their faces towards
Hungary, and leaving incalculame
supplies of flour, sugar, wine, hospi
tal stores, and agricultural imple
ments behind them, made their way
pursued by the Rumanians, over the
wintry Carpathians. There were no
Hungarian troops waiting to intern
the German legions, and the few
Entente soldiers in Budapest did
not count. We were told that the
Entente would impose still harder
conditions in the West, so we were
ordered to allow ourselves to be dis
armed by a ridiculous minority.
“Then began a second march over
the snow steppes. Thousands of
old Landstrum men did not face
this trial and were taken prisoners
by the Wallachians. who sent them
back over the mountains into Ru
mania. Severel divisions succeeded
in buying locomotives, cars, and
coal at Klausenburg, and thus fin
ished their journey by train. A
great mass of material was sold

Hundred? of transport and other
wagons were simply left in the road
r broken up for firewood.
"The trains were allowed to go
to Raab, whence, by order of the
Entente, the Hungarian government
sent them to the old internment
camp for Russian prisoners at Papa.
"Small things of value that we
saved were taken from us by Mag
yars on the way from Raab to
Vienna. With the divisional money
chest plundered of its contents by
Magyars, the 89th Infantry division
reached German-Austrian soil thru
the last remaining gap near Press
burg, which the Czechs closed a few
days later, undoubtedly at the be
hest of the Entente.”
Some people regard an open coun
tenance merely as a place to throw
things in.
