ghai early in tho winter on his way
home to America. That particular
section of tho railway, ho said, had
been under tho care of tho Japanese.
"What will happen In Siberia this

and thousands of peoplo there aro
going to dlo of privation. Thoy n,vo

ho declared, "working for threo or

never a caboose for shelter, poorly
clad and taking trains dally through
regions marked by frequent wrecks
nnd derailments caused by a hostile

With tho right kind of co-operation,"
Colonel Lantry declared, "tho Ameri

these men, could have rehabilitated
tho railway nnd made it a marvel of
efficiency."
Colonel Lantry said he had found
tho shelves of tho stores In the larger
centers he had visited recently load

would not have been able to buy a
single unsued article manufactured
by any other nation," he said.
