PAST HAS BEEN TERRIBLE, U. S. CONSUL WIRES Telegraph Communication Is Reopened Between Stockholm and Helsihgfors After Two Weeks. (By Associated Press) STOCKHOLM, April 23. With the re-establishment of telegraphic com

munication between Helsingfors and Stockholm after a fortnight's suspension, American Consul Haynes at Helsingfors has sent the following mes- , sage to the American legation here: "The past ' has been ' terrible. The present is bearable. The future Is uncertain." M. Orloffsky, the Bolshevik minister t Stockholm, has declared his willingness to vise passports of all properly recommended Americans' for trips to Russlt. He still refuses, however, to vise French and British passports. The only rote to Russia is by way of Narvik and eighteen days are required to make the trip to Petrograd at an exi peiise of more than $250. American Minister Morris has been J informed by Finnish Minister Grippenberg that the Finnish minister in Berlin reports that negotiations for the release of American and British citizens made prisoner on the Aland Jsland, some weeks ago are proceeding satisfactorily. Prof. Henry Crosby Emery, the American involved, has been released from imprisonment at Dantzig and will shortly be permitted to leave Germany.

Butler, a Richmond attorney, for the vacancy. Mr. Foulke said that poor health was the cause of his leaving the .service, and he expects soon to take a trip to a moderate climate. Members of the board said that Foulke's work as government appeal agent has proven a great help to the board in the carrying on of its work, and a vote of tfianka has been tendered him.

NATURALIZATION MUST BE PROVEN

The clerks in charge of registration

of voters for the fall election, call the attention of foreign born citizens to the fact that they must bring their naturalization papers with them in order to register., This is necessary under the new system of registration which is much more exacting than the old system. There are many men who have taken out only their first papers and in the past have thought thoy were naturalized citizens of the United States. But this is not the case and in order to vote a man must be fully naturalized, and if born in a foreign country must have his papers with him when he registers.

FRIENDS IN RUSSIA HAVE BIG PROBLEM

"The most dreadful civil phenomenon of any war," is the way Robert Tatlock, leader of the Friends reconstruction work in Russia, describes conditions in that country. Mr. Tatlock will speak of his work at the West Richmond Friends church Sunday evening. He is member of the Friends church of England and will return to Russia soon.. The problem which met the relief workers of the Friends unit .is described by the leader as follows: "The large number of refugees, the poverty of the lands on which they find themselves, the severity of the climate, the widespread lack of clothing, the local shortage of food, the prevalence of disease, the high refugee death rate, the insufficient nature of such relief bodies as exist, and the long-standing nature of the trouble, all help to make the Russian problem, if not the most striking and most

vivid, still the largest and in many ways the most dreadful civil phenomenon of this or it may be of any war. New York Boys Have Been Reformed by War Settlement Report Shows (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, April 25. The boys of New York have been getting better gradually for the past ten 'years, and for the past year their behavior has been almost above reproach. -The annual report of the Union Settlement, which devotes its efforts to south Harlem, where the boys are representative of the entire city, is authority for the above statemen. Just why the boys are abandoning evil ways is something of a mystery, but Gaylord S. White, secretary of the settlement, has several theories. "Thousands of boys have been sobered by the departure of older brothers for war service" said Mr. White, "and the work of the Junior Police in the tenement districts has quieted another large detachment of potential mischief makers. Things that were considered smart and amusing have lost their value in the boys' eyes with the burden of war reflected all about them. Any way, they're getting mighty good."
