' OPPRESSION IS CHARGED Russian I'onulation Declared sl'orccd to ignite to Stake Room Tor Mikado's Followers. CHICAGO. Dec. 16. N. D. Avksen ticv and Professor P. N. Miliukov. Russian anti-bolshcvist leaders, yes terday Issued a statement explaining their views on Japanese activities In Siberia, and the KuKsian far east, and pointing out reasons why the arms conference ehould.take up the sub ject, which Is Included In the agenda of the. conference, with a view to guaranteeing the rights of Russia in (Sakhalin and Siberia. The statement aid: "Air. Hanihara, a member of the Japaneso delegation, explained In a statement published December 9 that the Japaneso government expects to retain Sakhalin as a guarantee for indemnity In the massacre of 700 Jap anese at NikoaIiev.sk In the spring- of 1920, until tho establishment of a stable all-Russian government recog nized by the powers.' We must say thjU the pretext chosen is out of any prlortioit with the measure taken. No future Russian government will deny indemnity when the real story of the Nikoalievsk massacre is estab lished, if the Russian part In this de plorable affair is made clear. Outlaw Held Re nponftible. "As is already established, the mas sacre was committed by a band of Russian, Magyar, Chinese and Corean outlaws led by .one Triapitsin, and simultaneously with the 700. Japanese; 4000 Russians were cruelly murdered, The discussion of the massacre In tht Japanese parliament and the Jap anese press shows that the Japanese high command in Siberia did not take sufficient measures to safeguard the population of Nikoalievsk, including the Japanese residents, and that by the end of 1919, several months be fore the massacre, the Japanese car rlson, the only armed force in the town, was reduced from 1000 to 300 men. The Nlkoartevsk incident pro voked such a sharp discussion in Japan that the minister of war. Tan aka, and the chief of the general staff, Uehara, tendered their resigna tions. 'Mr. Hanihara stated further that by "peaceful penetration' Into the Rus sian territory the Japanese under took "only the demand for equal rights for the trade of all nations.' Policy Ia Questioned. "To this wo consider it our duty to respond that the Japanese prac tice in the northern part of Sakhalin does not Justify such an interpreta tion of the Japanese policy. August 9 the Japanese issued an order abol ishing 'all the Russian laws and or dinances in tho territory of occupa tion.' "By subseguent orders the Japanese have created a situation whereby righta of private property of the Rujsian citizens in the northern part of Sakhalin are disregarded; freedom of trade and industry, commerce and transportation is taken away from them; the Russian laws and courts are substituted by Japanese orders anil military courts. The Russian popula tion is deprived" of all means of exist ence. Consequently, the Russians are forced to emigrate. Their placea are being taken by the -Japanese immi grants, and thus the policy of 'tem porary occupation' results in Japani flcatlon of this Russian region. Sranhore In Occupied. "Still more important is the fact that the mainland snore of the Japan sea, opposite Sakhalin, is also occu pied under the same Japaneso regime. The pretext given is that this part of tho mainland, together with Nikoal ievsk, formerly belonged to the same administrative unit as the island of Sakhalin. By taking possession of Nikoallaysk the J4anese are suc ceeding in what was for a long time -the dream of their militarists, namely Cheesman. Simeon Cantl, Murray Burns, Frederick Templeton, Earle! Rogers, Carl Heilborn. Harry Cornell. Wallace Frazler, Edgar Rlcen, Joe Morgan, Robert Blake, Bruce Hors fall, Glover Clark, Edmund Veazie, Wallace Biglin and Lloyd Lee.

DAVIS-McCARTHY GO HOT Knock-Down-Drag-Out Affair Gives 'Fans Thrills Pete Jlitchie Gets Verdict Over Muff Bronson. BY DICK SHARP. Bahe Herman Is a championship possibility, but so is Danny Edwards, the Oakland colored flash. Danny won a hairline verdict over Babe at Mllwaukie .Friday night after ten rounds of about the fastest milling ever witnessed hero. There have been greater slugging bees, but seldom have such fast and furious boxers as Herman and Edwards mixed It in a local ring. It was go get 'em boys from the first round to the last. First Herman would flash into the lead, a seemingiy cinch winner, and then Danny would forge to the front again, smothering Babe with punches. , Both battlers landed with either hand throughout. Both made the other miss time after time, and both took some hefty ones on the chin and midsection. Herman displayed thej stronger punch. He had Edwards in a bad way several times, but either his wallop was not quite powerful enough or Danny was' too tough. Anyway, the negro boy came back after every bad session, swinging both dukes. Herman Poor Distance Judge. Herman displayed wonderful ,foo work, ducking ability and the knack of using both hands equally well. His only fault Friday night was his Judgment of distance. Danny was as quick to back out of harm's way and often Babe couldn't quite measure the distance with his left hook. His right was a pippin. This flipper came near dropping Up wards several times when Herman landed square to the chin with Bmash ing right crosses. Danny's smile would leave his face and he would re treat. Another minute, fully recov ered, he would lash in with both hands. . Herman changed his"style frequently in an effort to puzzle Edwards, but the black was quick to solve the changing attack. They stood head to head sev eral times and swapped blows. At in fighting it was about a toss-up. And the same goes for the rounds. Her man had a ehade in as many as Ed wards. There was little to choose be tween these two clever, hard-socking mites. ' for the American Legion, deleted by act of the tax commission, could be restored. Mayor Baker said he was not cer tain how far the council could go, legally, but that he stood willing to aid the legion in every way" possible. For that reason he referred the ques tion to City Attorney Grant for an opinion. J. J. Crossley, newly-elected com mander of Portland post, who headed the delegation, called attention to the fact that the cut of $72,000 in the po lice bureau would hit ex-service men especially hard, because of the fact that the majority of men who recent ly have entered the police department are ex-service men. Members of the council informed the delegation that everything pos sible would be done to arrange the city's finances so as to keep as many men as possible, but admitted th the situation did not look bright at this time.
