Moscow, Feb. 26.

The situation on the eastern section of the Chinese Eastern Railway is becoming threatening and causing much concern to "the Soviet Government.

According to reports from Kharbarovsk. well-armed bands of | Hunhoz (bandits) are stated to be attacking stations along the Railway and the railway camps.

It is alleged that in spite of the presence of strong "Japanese forces, the Hunhuz are being al- lowed to rob the stations and the railway workers with impunity jand in many cases the railway track has been destroyed with the object of looting trains.

SOVIET COMPLAINT. Despite an application to the the Manchukuo authorities and Japanese Staff for proper protec- tion, it is stated that no steps have been taken to forestall the attacks or to pursue the Hunhuz..

The Soviet leaders allege that close relations exist between the chiefs of the Hunhus, various Manchukuo officials and JapaneHE connected with the local authori ties.----Reuter.
