SEARCH FUR PARENTS
EX-RUSSIAN BLOCKED AT KOBE. VISA REFUSED. (Per United Press Association.) Auckland, June 15. A naturalized New Zealander named P. Artemieff, a farmer in North Auckland, returned this week from the Far East after vainly attempting to reach Vladivostock. He left Russia in 1912 and until recently had received letters from his parents. They suddenly ceased, and, being anxious, he resolved to go and find his parents, but he was blocked by the Japanese at Kobe who constantly shadowed him, and by the Russian Consul, who refused him a visa. He returned to Shanghai and vainly endeavoured to get into touch with his parents until a shortage of money forced his return. Artemieff said that in Shanghai the Russian community were certain Russia and Japan would not fight, because Russia was afraid of a revolution. _______
