Not one Of these had the slightest
foundation in fact.
All Kerensky was doing was to
state Russia's need for help. He never
in one syllable intimated that Russia
would stop fighting.
Yet there were the headlines to the
contrary.
You can't blame the editors. either.
They have been so fed up with stuff
about anarchy and ruin in Russia.
about chaos and disorder, about the
terrible Bolsheviki. and the raving,
roaring Maximalists (neither term
having the slightest definite mean
ing to the average American), that
they are perfectly sure. no matter
what happens in Russia 1t must be
something bad.
Russia Must Get Help.
These things furnish the basis on
which the pro-Germans in Congress
will work to prevent further ad-
vances to Russia. They help to keep
down the price Of the rouble. They
destroy all confidence here in Russia
and the Russian experiment.
They go back to Russia and con-
firm the Russian mind in the belier,
adroitIy created and fostered by Ger
man agents there, that the United
States Is hostile to Russia and the new
Russian democracy.
We should have no misunderstand-
ing about this matter.

shall help her, not alone with money

If 1t Is to Continue in the War.

written expressly Tor The WASH
Ington Herald BY
CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL.
Member of our star who spent
three months in Russia with the
official American Commission.
The greatest engine of German
strategy in this country today is its
press agency. which continues to work
as industriously ana extensively as
when Won Bernstorff was in charge
Of II.
One Of the great points that Ger
many Is playing for now Is to pre-
vent the United States from advanc-
ing any more money to Russia. This
may mean that Russia can be de-
tached from the rest of the allies, IL
she can be convinced that the United
States will not help her.
German Purpose Exposed.
Therefore German agencies in the
United States and in Petrograd have
long been industriously trying to
create and push along the belief here
that Russia Is given over to anarchy,
disorder and confusion. and Is bank
rupt.
They have played this so adroitly
that they have convinced most news
paper editors and millions of news
paper readers that It is the fact. The
foundation has been so carefully laid
that now whenever anything hap
pens in Russia it is contrued and in
tcrpreted by our newspapers from
just this point OF view.
There was a stinging illustration of
this when the recent statement OF
Prime Minister Kerensky about Rus
sia and the war was distributed.
kerensky said that Russia had
borne a very heavy burden. unaided.
from the beginning of the war, and
sthat she must have help.
Instantly hundreds of journals in
America leaped to the conclusion that
kerensky had given notice that Rus
sin was about to quit the fight.
Here are some of the headlines l
saw IN American newspapers over the
kerensky statement:

TO COMPLETE DRAFT.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

We must make q complete inven-
tory Of the qualifications of all reg
istrants in order to determine, as
to each man not already selected for
duty with the colors. the place IN
the military, industrial or agricul-
tural ranks of the nation in which
his experience and training can
best be made to serve the common
good. This project involves an in
quiry by the selection boards into
the domestic. industrial and educa-
tional qualifications of nearly 1o,-
O00,0 men.
Scope Of the Work.
Members of these boards have rem
dered . conspicuous service. The
work was done without regard to
personal convenience and under a
pressure Of immediate necessity which
imposed great sacrifices. Yet the
services Of men trained by the ex-
perience of the first draft must of
necessity be retained and the selec-
ton boards must provide the direct
ing mechanism for the new classi-
fication. The thing they have done
is of scarcely one-tenth the magni-
tude Of the thing that remains to be
done. 1t is of great Importance both
to our military and to our economic
interests that the classification be car
ried swiftly and accurately to a con-
clusion. An estimate of the time nee
essary for the work leads to the con-
clusion that 1t can be accomplished
in sixty days: but only it this great
marshalling of our resources of men
is regarded by all as a national war
undertaking of such significance as
TO challenge the attention and COM
pei the assistance Of every American.
II call upon all citizens, therefore.

Crowder's once yesterday gave out
the following statement:
THE questionnaire which is the
basis Of the new system Is a collection
OF questions bringing out the essential
facts upon which all classihcstions are
made. II In the only printed form
which any registrant needs to use
either in making claims or Ming proof.
At hrst sight. it may seem a little
formidable but a reading of the s,ues-
tions shows that they are simple
enough for any person who can read
and write understandingly TO answer.
Questionnaires are to be mailed by
the local board TO five per cent of the
registrants each day. The principal
work Of the legal advisory boards will
thus be over in twenty days, by which
time all the Questionnaires should be
returned TO the boards. Every man
has seven days in which TO return
his QUESTIONABLE fully made out. The
process Of classification will begin
about December 18th. Eight days
later the boards will begin the great
process of classification which be-

JESS WILLARD HAS
NO CINCH EITHER
FIGHT FANS INSIST THAT HE
MUST DEFEND TITLE
OR QUIT.

NEW YORK-Jess Willard has moi
met an opponent in the ring for more
than year.
| Willard has spent his time travel
ling around over the country with a
circus, drawing a huge salary through
the power of his name, showing the
people how he knocked out JAG John
son and brought back the title to the
white race.
Tom Jones, the barber, has travelled
with big Jess and has spent most of
his time assuring the newspapers that
Jess would fight whenever the oppo-
nent was found who could stand in the
same ring with Jess without melting
from pure fright at merely beholding
weight champion.
John L. Sullivan, James J. Corbett,
Bob Fitzsimmons, Jim Jeffries, and
even Jack Johnson must have chucked
themselves almost into hysteria by
this time by the mere consideration of
such a champion-a champion who
dares not, or refuses to fight
Willard is wrong when he says there
is no one worthy of a match with him.
Even though he is backed by Tom
Jones, Jack Curley and the rest of them
he is wrong. Not only is there one
man who would be acceptable for a
match with the champion, but there
are at least two.
Willard has contented himself by
turning down the insistence of Carl
Morris by the assertion that Morris
is no card. Morris he suavely
declared, would not draw a house of
$4,000
Absolutely wrong. A champion
ship match between Jess Willard and
Carl Norris or a championship match
between Jess Willard and almost any
heavyweight that could be named
would draw an enormous crowd. The
be to hope that the promoters con-
sidered their tastes enough to stage
the affair outside New York or
Wisconsin-where a decision would
settle disputes before they started.
Fred Fulton would be a good OPP
ponent for the champion. 1t isn't
anything to smoker about Fred
Fulton or Carl Morris would make the
fat and incompetent champion step |
rather lively to keep the gilt on his |
crown from being furnished. It's |
about time he began to show signs of |
life. The fight fans want it. He |
can't hold off much longer-and he'd |
better grab before the grabbing gets
100 hot for him.

below the maximum amount you have
TO spend. You will have many oppor-
tunifies, while the building is in proc
ess of construction or after it has
been completed, to use whatever sur
plus there may be and, if it is not used
in building it may be used for other
purposes.
Building home, adding something
of use to the tangible assets of the ma
ton, doing your part to create real
value, are some of the reasons why a
glow of satisfaction pervades the per-
son or the group that work out such
an enterprise.
1t is an undertaking that is so won
derfnlly worthwhile, so fraught with
good results to so many people that
this instinct-and it is an instinct
should be given every encouragement.
If you feel the idea stirring in your
breast give it all possible opportunity
to grow.
What kind of home to build and of
wnat to build it are among the next
questions that arise for settlement.
Materials that satisfy the preference
of the builder should be used. Do
not be swayed too greatly by the con-
ficting claims to merits put forth by
rival manufacturers. Much of the in
formation they give is based on fact.

bringing the floor out on line with
the bay window of the living room
and the continuation of the belt cor
nice around the sleeping porch add ap-
probably to the fine lines of the struc-
iure.
That is about all the perspective
view discloses, except that the sun
porch is private and little parties held
thereon will not be disturbed by
strangers or other guests who call at
inopportune times. Entrance to the
ring room is through a small vesti-
bule at the right of the house, which is
protected by the Overhanging roof.
The remainder of this house, as here
depicted, must be viewed from the
inside. The vestibule is large enough
to contain a hall tree and is well
lighted by two windows.

many purposes, sewing room, nursery,

That part of the first-foor plan made
up of porch, vestibule, toilet and bed
room does not continue beyond the
first floor.
However, the overall size of this
house, Al by 80 feet, provided ample
space for four bedrooms and bath.
To the adherent of the wonderful
benefits of outdoor sleeping the
screened porch on the second floor
would prove an irresistible attraction.
Under such circumstances the small
front bedroom would be used as a
dressing room.
Stucco houses of this general type
are unusually attractive and have long
been in vogue. The architectural de-
sign and interior arrangement should
merit the approval of the most exact
