Armenia temporarily is in no danger of going Bolshevik! unless the Moscow government sends a great Russian force against it, in the opinion of observers who have just returned from Shusha, Erivan, and Nakhitchevan after a careful study in the field of military situation.

He fought with the Russians in the early part of the European war and was decorated by Emperor Nicholas when he visited him at Tiflls where Dro was recovering from wounds. The general does not disguise his hatred for the Bolshevikl. He oper ates independently of the main Armenian army and is generally respected and feared by the rough bands which blindlv follow him. These bands wage guerilla warfare mercilessly. They lack ammunition and consequently use the bayonet freely. Suburban Kt. nor? ADO. Ohio.
