WOMEN TO CONSERVE
WOOL FOR SOLDIERS
Saving Means Mueh to Men Going
Abroad. Says Mrs. Funk.

The conservation Of wool was the
main issue discussed by the District
auxiliary Of the woman's Liberty
Loan Committee at q meeting Of
the National Council Of Jewish Women
and LOO school teachers Of Washing
ton yesterday afternoon
The plea for economy In the use Of
wool was made BY Mrs. Antoinette
Funk. vice chairman Of the, Woman's
Liberty Loan Committee. In her ad-
dress 10 bo.h bodies Of women.
American women. by readjusting
their wardrobe plans for the com,i1g
winter. can rave enough wool to sat
isfy half tho needs Of our army"
sIrs. Funk declared. "And The mild
climate of Washington makes such
q conservation of this war nscessity
peculiarly easy in the District of Co
Ium1ia.
This :s purely a woman's economy.
The men cannot help to any sreat
extent. because there are few suosti-
tutes for wool that are suitable for
mems clothing. Women. however.
may almost eliminate wool from their
wardrobes. A woman who has no
fur coat and cannot afford one must.
OF course. be supplied with an outer
covering of wool. But the possibili-
ties Of saving underneath the over
coat aro almost unlimited. All that
Is really needed is an old woolen
skirt for rainy weather. Substitute
silk and cotton products wherever
possible. Silk II cheaper than wool
and much more comfortable"
Saving means much Ito men going
abroad, says Mrs. Funk.

BY CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL
One hundred thousand released po-
liticaI prisoners, say the dispatches,
are now on their way from Siberia
back to Russia.
Only those who know something
Of the he'll provided for revolt by the
old Russian autocracy can know
what that means.
One hundred thousand souls res
Cued from living death, returned
from despair to hope, from the hor-
rOrs of premature burial to be free
like other men, from the infinite tor
lures Of infinite iends to the sudden
realization Of the republic, the vision
Of their dreams.
Some will go mad with joy, and
some will not for long time believe
they are alive and awake.
Marie Spirodonova, that saint of
democracy, she is free! Never did
she imagine she should see again the
sunlight on the grass and hear the
speech of men. Agents of the old
Russian autOcracy stripped her
naked and with the butts of their
Cigarets burned elaborate patterns
into her flesh, before with their fists
and their knees they beat her to a
pulp and with their heels stamped
into her face the cruel disfgurements
she will carry to her grave. And she
is free now, and so is old Mother
Katherine" the dauntless soul who
escaped once and went back deIber-
ately to put her head into the beasts
mouth rather than be safe and far
from the fight.
She is free! A hundred thousand
Of them are free! There is no more
Siberia, there are no more horrors,
no more knOut and lash, no more
beatings and wrackings, no more
lurking spies, no more chains for the

bing, incredUlOus truth so real to US
as that news about the 100000 re-
stored from the living grave.
Great days! They seem like some
impossible good dream. What we had
thought might come in the year 22OO
or the year $500 has come now. 1t
is even so. The day when Russia
cast from her the blight of kings was
one great day, and the day when
President Wilson formulated the
faith of American democracy was
another.
They will seem to the end of time
corners around which mankind
marched when it turned its face for
ever from the whole bedeviIment of
monarchy, rank, caste and special
privilege and started on the march
to complete and universal democ-
racy.
Great days!
There were some things about
that message that were even more
important than it's declaration that
the United States was ready to enter
the war. We haven't had time to
think much about them yet because
we have on our hands the immediate
job of putting the HOhenzOlerns out
of business. But we shall come back
to think more and more about that
message, and so will all the world.
Because, for one thing, it an
nounced definitely and for all time
extinction of one theory of govern
ment that has plagued and poisoned
the race for thousands of years.
1t has announced the death of the
idea that men because of their birth
have any privilege to reign or govern
or have power or influence. It
knocked out forever the old idea of
the tribal chief and the son of his ia
ther. 1t knocked out the old ridicu-
