Reply by email, filling out this form and emailing it to me.
Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.
I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

the
soldiers, now standing over me. "Ah!" said the corporal in
charge, "You must be a good Russian and a native here,
otherwise the dogs would have torn you to pieces. They
are trained for just that. Watch awhile and you will
see."
They walked away, dragging the reluctant dogs, who
wanted to stay with me. A few minutes later the dogs
leaped urgently to their feet and dashed off to the under-
growth at the side of the road. There were horrible screams
suddenly choked off by frothy bubbling. A rustling behind
me, and as I turned, a bloody hand, bitten off at the wrist,
was dropped at my feet while the dog stood there wagging
his tail!
"Comrade," said the corporal, strolling over, "you must
be loyal indeed for Serge to do that. We are going to our
base at Kraskino. You are on the move, do you want a ride
that far with five dead bodies?"
"Yes, Comrade corporal, I should be much obliged," I
replied.
Leading the way, with the dogs walking beside me wag-
ging their tails, he took me to a half track vehicle with a
trailer attached. From one corner of the trailer a thin
stream of blood ran to splash messily on the ground.
Casually glancing in at the bodies piled there, he looked
49
more intently at the feeble struggle of a dying man. Pull-
ing out his revolver he shot him in the head, then re-
holstered his gun and walked off to the half track without
a backward glance.
I was given a seat on the back of the half track. The
soldiers were in a good mood, boasting that no foreigner
ever crossed the Border when they were on duty, telling
me that their platoon held the Red Star award for com-
petency. I told them that I was making my way to Vladi-
vostok to see the great city for the

to Singapore, it surely would not too severely
tax the ingenuity of the Straits Government to devise a system of
State-aided immigration, closely resembling that which has for
many years been working in Canada, and more in accord with the
dictates of ordinary humanity and English ideas of the liberty of
the subject.
Among the Chinese at Singapore the women number less than
one-fifth of the population, and at Penang the proportion between
males and females is practically the same. In the immigration
returns the disparity is even more marked, for there is only
one female immigrant to every eighteen men. This extraordinary
preponderance of males in the Chinese population of these towns
has given rise to, and is made the standing excuse for, a
wholesale system of prostitution to which it would be difficult
to find a parallel. Government registration and protection have
favored the growth of this diabolical plague spot, for, strange to
say, this gigantic system of debauchery is under the direction
of the department which is euphemistically entitled "The Chinese
Protectorate," the "Protector of Chinese" at Singapore being also
the Inspector of over 200 brothels, and the Registrar of about
1,800 prostitutes. Many streets of well built three-story houses,
chiefly in one particular quarter of the town, are devoted to this
nefarious traffic, and are thronged every night with Chinamen who
loaf about and gaze into the front rooms and verandahs of the
brothels, for these front rooms open on the street and there
the women and girls are assembled in their best attire for the
inspection of the passers-by. Anything more ostentatiously and
revoltingly public could hardly have been devised, and it is
painful to reflect that the whole arrangement is the product of
Western civilization, such scenes being utterly unknown in China
except in the treaty ports, where public p

That the coolies
are frequently successful in their attempts to escape is shown
in the Report of the Chinese Protectorate, 160 being returned as
'absconded either when landing or at depot' in Singapore, and 101
at Penang, or about 1-3/4 per cent of the "unpaid passengers". On
arrival at the depot, the coolies are probably surprised to find
themselves securely confined in houses which look uncomfortably
like prisons, and the passer-by may see the dirty and unkempt
_sin-khehs_ or "new men," as these emigrants are called, peering
out between the thick wooden bars of the windows. The coolies
are thus forcibly detained at the depots until the brokers are
successful in finding employers who are prepared to pay the price
per head which they demand, a sum of about Ł10. In the meanwhile
however, it appears from the Report that nearly 4-1/2 per cent of
the inmates of the depots are discovered and redeemed by their
friends, the numbers being 414 at Singapore, and 278 at Penang,
and a further 1-3/4 per cent, or 236 at Singapore, and 55 at
Penang, are shown under the headings "released and returned to
China," having presumably been discovered to have been kidnaped.
Of the total number of "unpaid passengers" arriving at Singapore
and Penang, about 91 per cent eventually sign contracts and are
made over to their employers or their agents, the majority of
these being shipped off, under escort as before to the Native
States of the Malay Peninsula or other neighboring countries, to
labour for a fixed term of years aft
