I ATTITUDE OF UKRAINIANS 1
IS PUZZLE OE GREAT WAR j
[NOTE:—The attitude of the
'35,000,000 to 40,000,000 people of
the Ukraine, a new state which
came into being with the breaking
, up of Russia, has been one of the
i puzzles from the world war. On
the east they have been fighting
the Bolsheviki of Old Russia and
en the west battling*1-with the Poles
i for the possession of Lemburg. An
I Inter-Allied commission, sent to
Lemburg to negotiate an armistice
between the Ukrainians and the
Poles in the latter part of Febru
ary, failed and the fighting for
Lemburg continued. These caused
confusion in the minds of the people
; of the Western world.
To obtain the facts from the
Ukrainians themselves, the Asso
'ciated Press sent a correspondent
to Stanislau, the capital of the
West Ukraine republic, and he has
'cabled illuminating information in
cluding an interview with General
Simon • Petlura. the Ukrainian mili
tary leader, and also has forwarded
an interview with Premier Holubo
witz, explaining why the Ukrainians
refused to conclude an armistice
( with the Poles.
; In the subjoined article The Asso
‘ciated Press correspondent has given
i some informative details of the
(situation now existing in the Uk
raine.]
—
STANISLAU, West Ukraine.—
Much anxiety is felt in this capital
| of the West LTkrainian republic
(over the future attitude of the En
tente Allies following the ultimatum
delivered by the Inter-Allied mission
at Lemberg that if the Ukrainians
resumed military operations against
the Poles they would have to answer
for the consequences. While their
present temporary successes in the
operations about Lemberg have had
a heartening efect upon the Uk
rainian troops, this has not been
much reflected here.
The situation in this capital is
much the same as that which pre
vailed in Poland in the early part
j of December. There is considerable
fear of further gains by the Bol
; sheviki in Russian Ukraine, where
i they still are holding Kiev, although
'the LTkraine military authorities de
; clare they will be able to drive
j back the Bolsheviki forces within
(a month, particularly if they are
j not harassed by the Polish or Ru
manian armies. However, there is
more order in the West LTcraine
now than there was in Poland up
to within a month ago.
Food conditions are better, witn
meat selling at 30 cents a pound
though bread and sugar are high.
Medicines, soap and clothes are
scarce and high. It is pointed out
that the whole country of East
! Galicia has been the field of the
j operations of the Austrian and
| Russian armies for four years with
jnow and then an incursion of the
1 Turks and Germans, all of whom
I made requisitions upon the people.
(This was especially true of the
I Germans and, the peasants say,
j “proved worse thieves than the Rus
j sians.”
! The whole flat country from
j Lemberg to Stanislau has a barren
| devastated appearance. Houses are
rare except at railway stations and
1 most of these stations have been
destroyed by shellfire. A cow,
■ sheep or horse is rarely to be
'seen. For dozens upon dozens of
miles the fields which are turning
green with the coming of spring
reveal long stretches of trenches
and barbed wire hanging awry with
here and there bases for cannon,
j and often crosses marking the
(buriel places left in the trail of
| the armies.
Railway trains which are drawn
j by wood-burning locomotives drag
: across the rivers where wooden
military bridges have replaced the
j steel ones destroyed by shellfire
or mine.
The city of Stanislau was far
more seriously damaged by the
Russian and Austro-Bulgarian arm
ies than was either Przemsyl or
, Lemberg. Neither of the two lazter
i cities have serious scars of the
world war, but Lemberg shows
marks of the recent conflict be
: tween the Poles and the Ukraines.
The center of Stanislau was de
(stroyed by fire. Many of its fine
business blocks now are mere heaps
of brick ruins. This was especially
true along the fine Saphleha street,
where the Austrian and Russian
shells both brought disaster. The
Ukraine cathedral, which was one
1 of the oldest and handsomest of its
kind, was partly wrecked and its :
shattered windows now have been «
covered with boards.
However, the business of the ■
new Ukraine government is going !
on and the leaders hope that the s
arrival of another Allied mission !
will give it strength and moral sup- :
port until it is able to save Poland; *
the same may be possible here, S
where the political alignment is the ■
same.
The National Democrats are really :
the stronger party, but the Social- ;
ists make "a great parade of their !
strength, which they are able to ;
do as thus far there has been no s
election. The Socialists have less ■;
strength here partly because of the
fact that there is no aristocracy. !
as in Poland, and also because the
Bolsheviki propaganda takes less
hold on the people.
The close union recently formed
between the Eastern and Western
Ukraine and the situation at Kiev
is making this city take the appear
ance of Old Russia, with the cos
tumes of local peasants mixing with
those of the Ukraine Cossacks, who
wear shakas, long blue or gray
brown overcoats of fur or gray
wool, and red trousers with high
boots, and who carry short sabres
curiously decorated with carved
silver.
The National Ukraine plays are
being presented in the theaters,
where singers chant songs dear to
the hearts of the people such as th
plaintive ‘"Tears of Ukraine" and
the Ukraine Marseillaise called
“Mihaidamaki", in which the Cos
sacks are called to arms to fight
the enemy of their frontier. These
songs evoke much applause, indi
cating how deeply they stir the
national spirt.
MANY PHYSICIANS
RELEASED FROM ARMY
LONDON.—Coincident with pub- ,
iication of the report showing that
during the last quarter of 1918 ;
the number of deaths exceeded the
birthrate for the first time in the
history of civil registration in this
country, the war office has an
nounced the release in one week
of 700 physicians from the army.
Influenza caused the great in
crease in the death rate, the num
ber of victims from that disease
being 98.098, or 41 per cent of
the total deaths for the period. j
Lack of physicians is held respon- j
sible for the failure to curb the ;
epidemic. At the beginning of
this month. although 1.750.000
men of the army had been demo
bilized, only 1,500 out of 11,000 j
physicians had been released.
