nitions of war accumulated at Vladi

ernment who is in this city on his
way to Washington.
“Publlo opinion in Siberia is
against the Utopian measures of the
Bolshevik! government and this feel
ing Is a more potent factor against
the misappropriation of munitions ly
ing at Vladivostok than even the pres
ence of the allied war ships in Vladi
vostok harbor,” Mr. Baschklroff said.
