(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Dec. 27. Two hundred children of the officers of General Wrangel's Etaff, sons and daughters of generals, colonels and captains, were among the 100,000 Russian refugees brought to Constantinople harbor by ships of the allied nations when the Bolsheviki broke down Wrangel's defense and overran the Crimea. Many of them were orphans, their fathers having perished while fighting the Bolsheviki. One was the daughter of the minister of finance of the Wrangel regime. All were nearly famished when the vessels on which they had taken refuge arrived here, for the ships' larders had been exhausted. So hard pressed were all the refugees to obtain food that they threw diamonds and weapons or any other valuables into the boats of traders from Constantinople in payment for anything eatable. Report Tells Story. A graphic story of their arrival at Constantinople and how an American destroyer took the 200 children of Wrangel's officers off the refugee ves

sels and landed them at the Trachoma I orphanage maintained by the Near East Relief is told in reports received by that organization in this city. It reads in part: "The harbor is a wonderful and sad sight. One hundred thousand Russians are on ships there, some of them dying. The best of the old Russian families are among these refugees, the men who fought for Wrangel, crowded and sick and without food except what the relief people can get to them and the bread and water given to them by the French. Natives Profiteer. "Of course, natives are profiteering, and little boats go to the ships and the Russians drop diamonds, firearms and other valuables to these traders in exchange for food. The people on these vessels represent the remains of an old aristocracy with no country to take them though the French expect to send many to Morocco. "The children were packed with grown people like sardines on the big ships coming from Crimea and most of them were sick from fatigue, lack of nourishment and lack of sleep. Miss Gunther and Miss Hastings (relief workers) went to the ships on board a United States destroyer and 200 children were tagged with the names of their fathers and mothers, and the father's occupation. Many said: 'Father died in Wrangel's army fighting for Russia.' The destroyer brought the children to the landing of the trachoma orphanage which is located right on the Bosphorus. Ten mothers were taken with their very young

children and babies and the other children ranged from five to 13 years. "Most of them looked exactly like well-bred American children. Some

carried their dolls tightly in their arms and one little boy hugged a teddy bear. A boy of 12 carried a sick little boy of eight years because he came from- his town in Russia. He would not eat until the smaller boy had received soup. Most of the children could speak French. "First the mothers with little babies were fed and then the children, first the girls and then the boys. One boy ate six bowls of soup and all the children ate as if they were starved. There was no noise, no crying, no disorder. They were like little soldiers.

All the boys removed their hats upon I and bear expense

ice. Ninety-seven of the applicants were civil war veterans; 33 world war, and 11 Spanish-American veterans.

reorganize the government, Premier j

Chin Yun-peng told the newspaper men at the capital recently in a verbal statement. The premier outlined to the correspondents a whole program of reorganization which the gov

ernment hopes to put into effect. The parliament, he said, should draft a proper constitution for reunited China, now that the mandate of the president has gone, forth declaring peace between the Northern and Southern factions.

The premier said, the government j desired to reorganize and reduce the j army and to' separate the . civil from) military jurisdiction. This last, he' said, might appear ridiculous to for-! eigners but he added, in China "the j military have overstepped civilian powers so that one finds difficulty In;

drawing a clear line between the two. Refers To Report.

The premier referred to a report that the main reason for issuing the I mandate announcing a reunion of the j North and South was the desire of the j central government to secure loans , from foreign countries. "I emphatical-i ly state that the government has no I such thought," said Premier Chin. 1 "The mandate was entirely free from such a desire.. On the contrary, it ; was only after this unity and in view , of the government's measure for re-1 organization of the whole country j

that a necessity for the loan arose. "The idea of a foreign loan was only to spare the people from making that loan themselves to the government. Capital from abroad might be brought into the country and thus save the people from using their own capital already earmarked for their own indidividual undertakings.

Careful About Loan. The premier declared, however, that the Chinese government would

not make a foreign loan, although the j

necessity was pressing, except on , such conditions as would not endanger i the soverign rights of the country or j involve any danger to its political status. If the loan could not be made

on such terms then he believed the) Chinese government could rely upon;

j the people themselves to come to its I assistance.

State Jobs in Demand Says Commission Member (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 27. State job 5 that went begging during the war and immediately thereafter because of lack of applicants to take civil service ex

aminations, are being sought after now, according to Thad H. Brown, member of the state civil service commission. "High wages in war-time industries, and many persons leaving the state service for war work made it virtually impossible," Mr. Brown said, "to get any applicants to take civil service

examinations during the war period."

"Outside jobs immediately after the war continued to pay wages that, put state pay in the shade, and difficulty still was experienced in getting civil service applicants.' "With the marked letup industrially, applicants in numbers now are trying for state positions. The only way to keep up a high standard of efficiency in the state service is to have enough applicants so that we may pick and choose, getting the person best qualified." That condition, Mr. Brown said, is rapidly returning. There were 45 applicants for one position recently, he declared. Ex-soldiers of other wars, are out numbering veterans of the world war in trying for state jobs, according to Mr. Brown. Since last June, figures in his office show, 141 veterans of three wars have applied for state serv-
