MOMENT LOST IN
RUSSIA NOW MAY
COST MANY YEARS

NEW YORK, July e4-'"The allied
countries-and especially the United
States-hghting with Russia for a COM
mon cause-must help Russia and help
Immediately. A moment now lost can
not perhaps be made up in years"
A J. Sack. director OF the official Rus
sian information bureau. thoroughly
aware of Russia's present situation.
voiced this appeal to the worlds de-
mocracies today in a special statement,
which follows:
THE key to the Russian political sit
uation is that the Russian Socialist par
ties are the rulers OF the country. The
all-Russian peasants congress proclaim
ed as their party the Sociallst-revolution-
ists-Kerensky's party. The workers In
the cities proclaimed the Socialist-Demo-
cratic party as theirs. Since the Rus
sian peasantry alone constitutes about
IS per cent OF the entire Russian popula-
ton. you may see that the two great
Russian Socialist parties are the pre-
dominating factor in the present politi-
cal situation.
Offensive VIII Continue.
The first coalition cabinet in which
only one Socialist, A F. Kerensky, par
ticipated, was not successful and logi-
cally had to fall because the structure OF
the cabinet did not correspond with the
structure and proportionate power Of the
political parties In Russia. In the sec
ond cabinet six Socialist leaders partici-
pated. and therefore this cabinet had
more power and was able to pursue a
definite military policy which eliminated
in the offensive led by the Socialist min
lister, Kerensky.
This offensive will continue, be-
cause the overwhelming majority Of
the people, including almost all the
Socialist elements and the most prom
inent Socialist leaders, support It.
Against It is only a negligible noisy
element. consisting in part OF ire
sponsible political fanatics and in
part OF German agents, spies, and
provocators.
The task before the third coalition
cabinet, which includes eight Social
list leaders with Kerensky at the head,
Is to pursue a definite international
policy-a policy OF quieting the noisy
elements endangering Russian liberty.
The government OF Russia, feeling full
responsibility to the country and to

but the gravity OF the situation must
not be underestimate. The real DIFF
ficulty is in the Reorganization OF the
country, exhausted from three years
of war, and the terrible crimes con-
mItted by the old regime"
