"THK YELLOW PERIL IH NOT A
MYTH,” SAYS AN OFFICER.
»
Thinks That the Yellow Hordes Will
Eventually Sweep Through Russia
Into Europe.
“It Is the conviction of every Rus
sian officer on the Chinese frontier
that the ‘yellow peril’ is no myth."
said Lieut. I*. T. Eth^rton, who has
just arrived In this country. Lieut.
Etherton Is the Indian army officer
who recently completed a wonderful
joilrhey across Asia from India to
Siberia accompanied only by his In
dian orderly.
"I have talked with many Russians
from the Pamirs up to Liberia, and
they were all of the same opinion,"
he added. "It will be a thing, they
say. not of today nor of tomorrow,
but they feel assured that the yellow
hordes will eventually sw^ep through
Asiatic Russia Into Europe. They
have great respect for potential value
of the Chinese as soldiers Trained
and properly Pul they believe them
to be of the same standard as the
Tapanese.
"Chinn,” said Lieutenant Etherton
