RUSS PEASANTS
TERRORIZED BY
DEEDS OF REDS
Allies Urged to Send Sufficient
Forces to Put End to
Reign' of the
' , Bolsheviki.
Archangel, Nov. 9. Abject terror
that the bolsheviks are coming back
to kill and rob reigns in the hearts
of the peasants in many little vil
lages on the banks of the Dvina and
Vga livers back of the allied lines.
" - The correspondent who has just
returned from the Dvina-Vaga front,
found the peasantry full of hatred
for the bolsheviks but afraid to fight.
In many places they have already
seen their friends shot and bay
"ortetted or brutally killed by slow,
torturing methods when suspected of
.aiding the allies. In one little vil
lage, it was related to the corre
spondent, bolsheviks compelled three
peasants to dig their own graves and
hump into them to "try them out."
The peasants were shot a moment
. Jater. . - This was done, the people
charge, by White guards.
In another village the people were
warned by a bolshevik spy that they
would be killed if they furnished
"aid to the American transport and
two days later the bolsheviks were
able to keep their promise to be back
in the village within 48 hours,
il These peasants say, they' are the
ireal Russian people, and they want
?the allies to send sufficient forces to
guarantee a speedy end to the reign
Yf terror by the bolsheviks, whom
ithe peasants regard as fanatical
savages.
Meanwhile poverty in the villages
'is increasing. Theie is no kerosene
wr candles and the people have gone
fcack three centuries, using a primi
tive iron.
