The Debacle in Russia

Kerensky tried to yoke anarchy with order, and

as a result he went down in defeat and his coun

try is rushing to its doom. Unbridled license is

surging through Russia and bloodshed and argon '11 A? i 1 " A 1 - 1 4- nsiiivh-

wui continue uniu its peupie team wai y wvm try can exist without law and order.

The Maximalists have seized Petrograd and

seemingly control the political destiny of Rus

sia. The Maximalists or Bolshiviki, meaning in Russian, "the men who want more," are made up of the extremists, of the Council of Workmen's

and Soldier's Delegates. - ' The underlying principle of this party, is :

"The people of Russia were forced into the war to achieve the ambitions of czardom. The revolution has revealed what these ambitions were. The Russian people are not in sympathy with them. Hence it is the right and duty of the free Russian people to repudiate all contracts

made between czardom and its allies in the war and to strive for an immediate peace with the enemy, irrespective of all former conditions and treaties to which the Russian people were not partners and in the execution of which their won freedom absolves them from all responsibility."

It will be remembered that in July 1917, Kerensky who was a Parliamentary Socialist in the old Duma, attempted to bring about a coalition government with himself as war minister and premier and with representatives of the Council. Those members of the Council who accepted the overture were driven out of office by the Council, which at that early date indicated very dearly that it wanted to dominate the situation. ,S6me of the more conservative members tried to maintain national honor and arouse the middle class to a realization of the danger of an unstable government, but all in vain. The growth of the power of the extremists is seen in the many cabinet, changes that Kerensky had to make and in the rapidity with which the government changed from a republic to a dictatorship and back again to a republic. : In the meantime the Council was gaining added strength, and Kerensky, seeing the hand writing on the wall, issued a statement in which he appealed to the Allies for aid and confessed tacictly that he was beaten. The quick response

of the United States with a credit of $31,700,000

and the assurance of help from the Entente Pow

ers caused the Maximalists to hesitate a few

hours in carrying out their project of taking over the government and driving Kerensky into exile. But Kerensky was unable to stem the tide of opposition and on Nov. 6 the soldiers began taking over the government offices. ; The foregoing summarizes briefly the events from the overthrow of the Czar to the flight of Kerensky.

him, but he either feared the test, or his socialistic bent of mind deterred him from using the military to give a centralized form of government to his people. ' ' . ' ;.' ' - Should misguided Maximalists .conclude a separate peace with the HohenzoUern regime, the

Allies will have to reckon frith 147 German divis

ions released from the eastern front and with the

enormous economic resources of Russia upon

which the Germans may draw. " -

The man power made available for operations on the western front need riot be feared very

much, for a superiority of artillery on the side of the Allies offsets this advantage! The economic power given Germany by a peace treaty with

Russia is the factor that is most deplorable for it

will prolong the war.

' Russia is a rich country. Seven-Eighths of the population are engaged in agricultural work. Eighty-one percent of the people are peasants.

More than 368,000,000 acres are available for

agriculture. The American Review of Reviews

in a recent issue divides the acres as follows :

Cereal crops, 257,000,000 acres ; potatoes, 11,000,000 acres j flax and heirip, 5,500,000 acres ; meadows, 96,000,000 acres. ,The output of this acreage yields imposing totals. In 1913, reckoned in poods (1 pood36 pounds) they were : cereals, 5,636,000,000 poods; potatoes, 2,191,000,000 poods; sugar ; 106,000,000 poods ; hay, 3,246,000,000 poods. Besides these major crops, Americans would do well to note that Russia is also a largescale producer of cotton and tobacco. In 1914 the cotton acreage in Central Asia arid the Caucasus was 1,800,000 acresryielding 1,250,000 500pound bales, while in 1913 the tobacco acreage

was 154,000, yielding $,500,000 poods. As might be inferred from the size of the hay crop and the extensive stock-ranges in the steppe-lands of the Empire, Russia is also a great producer of livestock and dairy products. In 1914, Russia possessed 35,000,000 horses, 52,000,000 horned cattle, 72,000,000 sheep and goats, and 15,000,000

ox

Russia has unlimited deposits of coal and iron. The total, output of coal in 1912 was 1,800,000,000 poods ; pig iron, 256,000,000 poods; worked iron and steel, 227,000,000 poods.

The agricultural and mineral deposits of Russia would enable Germany to take a new lease on life. It would provide her soldiers and civilians with food, and supply the Krupps with the materials necessary for the manufacturing of mankilling instruments. But offsetting this advantage is the tremendous loss of men which Germany has sustained in.the three years of the war and the fact that they cannot be replaced. All of Russia's coal and cereals will not increase Germany's man power one iota. '"rS!: '' "

What I Saw Y. M. C. A. Doing in France

By MAUDE RADFORD WARREN. Novelist and Short Story Writer,

THE R. K. M. lowing sign

Kerensky fought valiantly but not wisely. Himself a Parliamentary Socialist, Kerensky temporized with incipient anarchy. Kerensky's

weakness was his refusal to fight the first over ture of the Council. ' Had he' met the Initial de

mand of the Maximalists witfi a shdw of military

power, insisted on tne uuma controlling the government until a Constituent Assembly was elected, dispersed the Council, and forced a test of strength, the intervening months would have indicated .whether Russia prefers anarchy to a stable government. He had the assurance of the military leaders that the army would support

Proselyting Pacifists

From Scribner's Magazine.

VK listened to beetle-browed professors with dirty

collars and broad minds and to unshaven, roundshouldered youths spitting forth ereat new irten rif

the melting pot and the fusing of nations, the social millennium and the brotherhood of man; I have heard them industriously impugning the motives of patriots, poking their pipestema into private lives of Presidents, eager to release the fetid breath of long forgotten scandal mongers, leaving a trail of Blime across the flag all to demonstrate a brave Independence of thought. I am glad, in the crisis that faces us, that they cannot crawl under the colors of freedom and hide while the clean-cut sons of our heroic dead go forth to fight their battles. Proselyting pacifists, burdened with theories and ideals and obstinately blind to the fact of a sinful world, have led our youth astray. We have had teachers for our children who have confused the office of teaching with that of preaching and so have preached to them sermons in' which the great principles of our "national existence have been n'eglected the great principle that justice mast be fought for today as Jfwas fought for m the days of the patriot pioheersV whh'a stalwart heart nd the strong arm of righteousness. . . : , " When 'American parents suddenly learn that the plastic minds of their children aire being scarred with the venomous injunction that the flag is not worth honbring and tat the uniforms of our "sailors and soldiers are the trappings of murderers,' it is not difficult to understand why1 the bright flag'of their forefathers is left to the corruption of moth and rust, " ' "' - ; -

Two Years' Supply o f Seed Corn Must be Picked, Says Helms That seed 'corn should be selected for wo years for the 1918 "plantings and to insure adapted seed for 1919, that ears selected should be properly dried, and that long ears with large, uniform kernels are best, and that sappy ears heavy with water should be avoided, were contentions advanced by J. S. Helms of Richmond, agent Western Indiana, Monday. Mr. Helms has been rounding up Montgomery county farmers,' urging the importance of selecting seed eorn for future use. He will spend the next few days in DanvIUe and Crawfordsvllle on this -work; and -for the purpose also of urging the farmer to join the five acre contests. Each county with a county agent is working for this contest. -f A county agent, he said, was needed for Wayne, as this county was

LaBt winter I was walking up a gray

London street Just off Tottenham Court road; gray, buildings, gray sky, but on the pavement a stream' of glorious dusky-gold the uniform of men

in khaki. A group of them stopped suddenly in front of a tall building on which was the sign of the red triangle. They pulled pff : their ; caps, swung them ip a wide circle, and shouted: "Good -old Y. M.l-Good old Y. M.!" Their young faces, a moment before masked with that stoic surface born of trench life, now spoke - eloquently their appreciaUon, their gratitude. They gave that gray Y. M. C. A. building the look a man gives his

home. . "Well, it is the nearest thing to home we have out there," one lad replied, when I said" something of the sort to him. We discovered that we had been born within 100 miles of each other, and then he spoke to me freely as soldier boys back from the front often speak to people whom they do not expect to see again. ' "These blessed little huts follow our "war lines wherever they go. They

come up under shell fire Just as close

as the- war office will let them. I can never forget the first time I got into support trenches. It was pretty hard to sit! there under fire the first time, and when cur seventy;two hours were

over I staggered out of the communication trench half stupefied. The first

thing I saw in a meadow just up by the road was a Young Men's Christian Association field kitchen all ready with hot coffee."

The soldier's eyes filmed over in

misty reminiscence and I guessed they must have known real tears when he saw the Y. M. C. A. worker quietly dip

ping up hot coffee and handing out sandwiches. That peaceful, normal occupation must have helped bridge for him the chasm between the abnormalities of war and the normalities of civilian life.

"Yes, ma'am," he continued, "good

old Y. M. is about the last thing we

see going into the .trenches and the first thing we see coming out. Where can a fellow be sure of hot food? The Y. M. Where can he see a cinema to take his mind off the trenches? Lots of the Y. M. huts have them. Where can he hear a little music. Good old Y. M. has phonographs. Biggest disappointment some of us had once was

coming back to a hut near billets to

find that a shell had gone bang

through the phonograph. Does a

fellow want a quiet hour? He gets it in the Y. M. Does he want some one

to talk to? Y. M; provides. I'm not

'pi,' hut I do say Lord bless 'em."

This young soldier was quite evi

dently not pious, as he said, but his look showed that out there in the trenches he had been thinking of the deep things of life. There were little thoughtful lines, fresh-made, grooved in his face. Therefore, it was not

hard to get him to speak farther of

what the Y. M. C. A. had meant to

him.

"I used to kind of shrink from a Y,

M. C. A. man before the war. I mean.

had a silly idea they'd want to talk

to me about going to church, and ask

if I drank and smoked and swore and

it my reet - otnerwise took hold on

hell. But they never talk religion to you unless you start it first What they do lor you is give you friend

ship and comfort. ' These Y. M. C. A

workers that go to France seem to be

chosen with a view to their influence

over the boys. Well, they have it, all

right. They seem to know just what to say and do for us. I've known a

couple of fellows that turned religious

just because of the goodness of these

Y. M. C. A. people.

"Sometimes," he went on clowly,

we wonder if the people at home un

derBtand just how hard it is for us out

here. It isn't that I want to grouse:

we teiiows nave our Dit to do; we know what it is and how to do it. But we need every reminder we can get of

home. We need letters and parcels

from our friends and, we need these Y. M. C. A. huts and refreshments and amusements to bring home over here to us and to remind us that the civil

ians are thinking of us. .Well, when

I bear some woman, or an exempted man saying, 'But I gate moneys to the Y.5' M?' Cv A.- last" year I fee! Hke say

ing,'"Well I ! gave you toy blood last

years, as this gold stripd on my sleeve

shows, and I'll probably give it again this" year,-if I don't give my life. If you saw us fellows crowding into the

huts, 'and those that can't get inside

gaping in through the window, you'd know we haTent enough of those huts and that we appreciate' ' to ""tne full those we do have.- Lots of us fell like saluting that red triangle almost as

we salute the flag. That'3 why we pull off our caps and yell 'Good old

Y. M.!" ' - -'

Scarcely . a week afterward, one Monday afternoon, I was walking from

one little country village in Kent to another 'When I fell in with a me chanWs wife. She had just returned

from doing a day's washing for a farmer's wife in the neighborhood. 1 "I never worked out for any one before," Bhe said, for I always 'ad all I could do at 'ome. But my eldest, 'e's in France; and it's what he wrote me made' me say to meself I'd get up at 'alf past twelve Monday morning and do my own wash and then do Mrs. William's and give the pay I earn to the Y. M. C. A. ' Because my boy, e wrote and said I never could know What the Y. M. C. A. 'ad done for Mm out there.' 'Mother,' 'e wrote, 'if you can think what acomf6rt prayer'meeting was to grandmother, and whisky to grandfather; and the trade union

is to father, and the Dorcas society 13 to yon, then you can have just a little idea of what the Y. M. C. A. 1b to me. Do you remember, e says, 'that time I got lost when I was a little fellow and ran home crying, and you were coming down the road to meet me? Well, the way t felt that night when I saw your face and the lights of the cottage way up the road that's the way I feel when I get my three days out and bring up in front of a Y. M. hut.' That's -what 'e says. "Of course. Ma'am, that was all his nonsense about his grandfather's whisky; grandfather never got so to say ugly drunk. And I don't know

why he thinks I set store by the Dorcas society. But when he said that about the time when he got lost, it made my 'eart go queer. Because I saw as I didn't see before 'ow lonely the boys must get and 'ow much they must like a place to sit and smoke and write 'ome from. So I send my little money up to 'eadquarters every week. It's not much but it helps cheer up some soldier boy; That's something." Many times I have seen English and colonial boys pouring Into Y. M. C. A. huts in different places In England and France. They are sure of shelter, rood food and recreation. In the din

ing rooms of the English huts, English women wait on them for the sake of

their own boys; give them help and

companionship, try to withhold them

from temptations of the street In France there is equal zeal. Once I was

in a certain seaport. An English trans

port had Eafely crossed the channel, escaped from submarines but not from rough weather. The soldiers were disembarking, young unseasoned troops fresh from their training in England, and. now going to a base camp in ,

France. Some of them were a little pale from seasickness; all looked tired. The glamour of a foreign land had not begun to inspire them, and some of them, I am afraid, were suffering from a touch of home-sickness. Then they say the Y. M. C. A. hut Some of them cheered and charged, and went in boldly; others went in timidly. Once Inside they were all at home On the walls, indeed, were French posters instead of English, but the good old red triangle was the same. There were the tables for chess and checkers; there were the English magazines; there, above all, were the paper and ink. In a moment every available desk and table space was occupied by soldiers writing home. It was a very moving sight. Now it is our own boys who are over there and who will need the kind of comfort that only the Y. M. C. A. organizations can give. Letters and boxes from home are not enough, vital as they are; the ordinary voluntary canteens are not enough. There is no single organization that gives such a variety of necessary help as the Y. SI. C. A. It not only gives shelter and to the boys who have known the shelter tho word hut will always have a blessed connotation; it not only gives food and recreation, but it gives what every woman will want her son. husband or sweetheart to have, and what ever father will want his boy tc have; a certain Intangible feel of home. They will be cold, those men you love; the Y. M. C. A. will warm them and feed them. They will perhaps be depressed; the Y. M. C. A. will cheer them. Think of the Y. M. C. A. as serving for you, as giving these boys of yours all you would give them with your own hands. It can not be done without money. And those who are not making emotional sacrifices by sending men to the front ought to give the more because they are spared this Bad cost. Won't you give all you can everybody? And then, won't you give more than you can Sheltered woman with a warm house to go to. won't you give up that new blouse you think you need and turn the money it would cost into the Y. M. C. A. fund Or that set of furs? Or won't you give up giving Christmas presents for the salce of the men who must spend Christmas in the trenches? Won't you, man who are not in the draft, won't you give up

some of your cigars and wines, some of your cherished comforts for the sake of the boys who will face hardships of -which you will hear nothing till they come home. For-they -will not complain, those boys of ours; they will carry on uncomplainingly like the British and 'the French. But you have the privilege of making that carrying on easier. Remember what they give; at the worst their lives; at the best months of precious youth, the suspension of careers, the lowering of wages, and they do it for your safety. Think of our boys laboring up out of the trenches- after three hard days during whteh' they could not have hot food, dared not even smoke for fear of drawing the enemy's fire, could only sit still under bombardment. Do you want them to be met at the end of the communication trench with a Y. M. CcA field kitchen? They will, it yon will give enough; If you don't they will march several miles to billets, wet dispirited, before they can have anything hot Won't yon give give even till it hurts? Give the money that will carry a little bit of homo to the men who have taken upon their young shoulders the hardest part of this war. Adv. '
