RUSSIA ASKS
MONEY AS THE
PROPER help
FROM NATION
Premier Kerensky's Declara-
ton Interpreted in Some
Quarters to Mean Gold.
Country Still Has Large
Credit Here.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Premier
Kerensky's statement tina. Americas g
most effective help to Russia would
be the sending OF money was regarded
here as possibly forcasting formal re-
quest for the transportation of gold to
Russia, but it was thought more like
ly that wha.the premier had in mind
was the establishment OF credits to be
expended here in the purchase OF sup
plies for Russia.
Have her send boots" the premier
was quoted as saying in response - a
question as to how America could help
best, leather. iron, and" with empha-
sis, money
Would Be Precedent.
The sending of actual money out of
the country to any of the allies would
establish a precedent and will be dia-
metrically opposed to the American
governments present policy, which
aims at the conservation Of the huge
store of gold piled up since the war
started. AS means of making such
conservation effective, gold was plac-
ed, by presidential proclamation OF
the list OF commodities which must 5e
licensed FOR export and. the federal
reserve board, under Secretary Nc
Adoo's supervision, announced policy
of holding gold exports to the mini
mum.
The American government. appar-
emily. is entirely willing to grant fur
ther requests for credits. 1t has
granted Russia's requests with alacrity
and Secretary McAdoo has announced
repeatedly that the treasury would
place money wherever it would be
most effective in fighting Germany
Russia Has Balance.
Until today Russia had not expended
the first OF three credits established
for her benefit in this country, totaling
1926 100000. The formal transfer to-
day to Russian account of sS1, zoo, 900
from the treasury to the federal re-
serve bank of New York brought the
total she had withdrawn up to $780,
10000. or s15.sOO,O00 more than the
first credit 5f s175,00O,000.
There still remains available for
Russian expenditures of s214,1O0. 900
without the authorization of another
credit and there is every indication

Huns Retire From Points
Along the Famous Chemin

(By Review Leased wire.)

NDg INCNLcN LCdSru w
The Germans have retreated from
points along the historic Chemin des
Danes sector on the Aisne front in
France. where for several months the
French troops of General Petain had
been keeping them sharply to task.
Just where the retrograde move
ment took place and how far it ex-
tends cannot yet be told. as the Ger
man official communication announe-
ing it merely says that the Teutons.
unnoticed and undisturbed by the en-
emy. Systematically withdrew their
lines from the hilly front in this re-
gion- The entire line to the north OF
the Aisne, where the Germans were
last reported as facing the French, IS
undulating in character from the Sois-
sons sector eastward to the vicinity
of Craonne, and therefore it is impos-
sible, from the rather terse aeknowl-
edgnent of withdrawal, 10 determine
the terrain which has been given up.
Nevertheless it appears that the
Germans. tired of the terrible ordeal
they had been forced to undergo for
some time from the French artillery
and violent artillery attacks. have de-
cided to fall back upon Laon. capital
of the department of Aisne. which
with it's network of railways has been
the quest OF the French. 1t is posi-
BILE. and seemingly probable. that the
withdrawal of the Germans will com
pei also the falling back of the Ger
line in this region running north
ward to st. Quentin. II. indeed. il does
not affect the German positions as
far north as Arras.
In Italy
|. On the Italian front the AustrO-
Germans and Italians are in combat
along the middle and lower regions
of the Tagliamen.o river. with the
eral Cadorna's army on the western
side of the stream. AS far as is known
the enemy has not yet been able 10
cross the river, which is in freshet.
but it seems apparent that from the
Carnic Alps south along the battle
line to the head of the Adriatic the
Italians now are holding their new
line of defense securely.
Italy Patriotic
Meantime. sentiment in Italy is
seething with patriotic fervor, with
even the old Garibaldi veterans and
men inyalided home as a result of in
juries in the present war desiring 20
rush to the scene of hostilities-
On the other fronts there have been
no engagements of great Importance.
The Britons have carried out minor
operations for gains west of PaSschen-
daele and southeast of Poelcapelle. n
both of which prisoners were cap
tured. To the east of Ypres the Ger
man guns have been violently she'll
ing the British lines.
Although. according to the Russian
premier. Russia is war-worn and be-
lieves she has the right to claim that
the allies now should take the heav-
lest part of the burden OF her shOul-
ders, the new republic has no intea-
tion to declare herself out of the war
