Every one was heartlly sick of the white administration before It was overthrown, the whites having com- mitted almost every possible biunder. “he communists entered the cf without bloodshed and. opened their administration without sensation. The first blg move of the ocom- muniate was the deportation of 3,000 old white officers and others consid- ared politically undesirable. They cleaned up the district, repaired ruined bulldings and obliterated most of the traces of the city’s cleven rey- olutions. Moral Clean-Up. Thelr morul clean-up was equally drastio. Viadivostok was notorious for many years for its flaunting {m- morality. * The communists Glosed over 400 Buropean houses of 111 fame, swept clean the oriental rabbit war: rens, which constituted probably the wiockedest block in the world, and suppreseed the oplum deng.
