The Russia OF the past, h pamphlet
points out. should not I've used to- meas

OF Russians who never before left their
nome villages have travelled thousands
OF miles during the war: hundreds of
thousands of them havc been prisoners
In Germany. seeing Germans cont

When these men return to their homes
they will take with them new thoughts
and desires and ideals.
Tho increase in Russia's national
debt should en-, ouragc the development
OF her vast but hitherto almost Tin
touched natural resources. So tina tho
debt may be promptly and easily paid
SANS the pamphlet. THE tremendous
effort being put forth to manufacture
munitions and supplies for her armies
should mean the establishment of a do
mestic manufacturing organization in
comparably superior TO any that ex-
listed before the war.
The decrease In State revenue due
10 the abolition OF the vodka traffic has
been accompanied by an unparalleled
increase IN savings bank deposits and
efficiency OF labor.
THE withdrawal of tho Tcutonic or

people the folly of depending IN pesce
too much on citizens Of "A foreign coun-

The United States Is the nation hes;
qualified to assist Russia In the work

our needs Of yesterday are Russia's
needs Of to-day and Tomorrow.
Russian exports in 1913 we're valued
at l.3?0.lO0. 900 rubies. az agains; an
average OF l.046.600. 900 between the
