VORDWSKYS KLLER DIES A LEGORNARE Vindioator of Sisters’ Deaths Succumbs in Mgrocco—Was .« Soldier for France. BY CAPT.R. ERNEST DUPUY, U. 8. A, By Oable to The Star, MEKNES, April 3 (NAN.A).—Once more has the French Foreign ion lived up to its reputation as an asylum for men who desire to escape the world. Moroccan newspapers carried, under & Geneva date line, a statement that Konradi, self-styled executioner of the Soviet diplomat Vorowsky in that city , had died in Meknes, a on. canton of Grison, Switserland, and with his parents had emigrated to Rus- sia, where his father at the time of the revolution was s chocolate manufsc- turer in Moscow. When the gutters of Moscow flowed blood during the Bolsheviki reign of terror, among the victims of the Reds were the two young sisters of Konradl shot down vdy assassins. Konradi him- self escaped the revolutionists, and swore to take vengeance for the murder of his sksxsbler';. Helllczuteh;‘ vfimcuns of Vorow: later on in ’rhmyun several in_this story. How he first got away Russia, and how, later, he escaped from the Swiss lice I do not know. Stranger atill, ng the death of Leon Conrad down here in North Africa became known in Geneva I cannot determine. The only explanation for this last is that there are in the Legion a large number of Russians, most of them White Russians, who abandoned their country when the Bolshevists gained power. These men, of —course, are bound by & common bond, and doubt- less Konradi's story, known to those of his comrades of Russian origin, was re- layed by letter to other refugees now living in Geneva upon his death here. And so another international story has come to an end, as so many of them have in the past and will in the future, in a narrow pine box on a North Afri- “ THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

At- the headquarters of the 2d Regi- ment in Meknes the only official state- ment was that Leon Conrad, who af- firmed himself to be of Swiss origin, had enlisted some years ago and had proved an excellent soldier. But from other sources, and from comrades of the man, I learned a curious story. Conrad, or Konradl, was born in the can hillside, within sound of the eclar- fons of the Leglon.
