Giy6n Little Attention

Pre -ious to the rise of the Bolshevik to power and their subsequent peace negotiations -with Germany, the allies paid very little attention to Siberia. Since then little has been done to counteract enemy progaganda or German attempts to secure control of the vast riches of Siberia when the war is brought to a close. The greatest number of the 100,000 prisoners are in Irkutsk and other large towns to the west, but in Priamuria—that part of Siberia which abuts oil Manchuria, and which has^ an outlet to the China sea —there are between ir.,000 and 16,000. These are in encampments at Ilabarovsk, Blagovestchenck, Nikolsk and other centers. The proportion of prisoners is three to' one in favor of the Austrians, Five thousand of the "prisoners in Priamuria are officers, most of them being in the eatnp at Ha barovste.

Working With Bolshevik. It. is known that in Irkutsk and western Siberia the German*, especially the officers, are working with the Bolshevik. Some released prisoners also are with the Bolshevik forces now fighting against Gen. Semenoff, the anti-Bolshevik leader in eastern Siberia.

Those who have visited the prison camps sav that the officers and men keep themselves In excellent physical condition and that they believe the day is coming when their services will be used in the far east and that a German force will come to their assistance over the Siberian railway

Allied sympathizers here declare that fue only way to prevent the AustroGernjan prisoners from doing any further damage. Is to support any movement that would enable the allies to secure control of the prison camps, or, better still, to have the prisoners removed to a safer locality.

Some of these meni have been at work among the large Mohammedan population of the Chinese, province of Sinkiang. while in Mongolia, Bolshevik and Turkish' agents have been attempting to bring about an uprising against the government.
