"Potter's field" the graveyard In
which are buried those who are in
tered at public expense, comes by Its
name legitimately. In England and the
continent the clay used to make pot
terry was dug up In long trenches, which
were left untitled. Common consent
soon made It possible for these UNI
slightly stretches of ground to be put to
the useful purpose of interring the
bodies of those who were cared for as

The report OF the News contrad;cts
the rumors some time ago that ths

newspapers, perhaps influenced by tho
fall Of the Russian autocraoy and ths

In regard to the suggestion Of a new
note. NJ. Milukoff said that such a step
was quite impossible.
"Such conduct" he continued,
"toward a foreign government can not
be permitted. II we should attempt to
follow a route which in my conviction
is impracticable we would only be re-
pulsed"
Dependent on America.
The minister made an allusion to a
secret telegram which has been re-
ceived from the allies. It is significant
that the ambassadors of England.
France and Italy have called upon the
foreign secretary. NJ. Milukoff con-
cluded his statement by saying:
Respecting our military needs and
means Of Continuing the war we are
dependent to a great extent upon tho
allies, especially upon America. It will
be an everlasting blot on our history
if there should be a possibility OF con-
'cluding a separate peace. But the
council itself has declared against a
separate peace"
M. Tcheidse. president Of the council,
repeated previous declarations that the
mperialistic attitude OF the government
was unacceptable. He said: Neither
the soldiers nor the workmen are for

NJ. Tcheidse called attention to the
fact that there was no interior discord,
and that the only trouble was In respect
to Russia's foreign policy.

restrictions operated about equally on
rich and poor"
The rich, he said, lost a Nlarge
amount of their wealth on the income
tax, running as high as 33 1-3 per cent,
and the poor had unusual prosperity
because Of increased wages, large al
lowances and the influx of about s00,-
900 women Of the lower classes into in
dustry ,
Lord Percy said England found usual
business not impossible but that q
great restriction in output resulted. It
soon developed, however, that consid-
erable trade was given up owing to
pressure of nlunition needs. Then ef-
forts were centered on maintaining re-
served occupations. To do this It was
to withdraw from the front
many men who had volunteered at
first and to exempt many others who
were later conscripted.
