Situation Improves

Petrograd, Oct 12.-General Alexien.
former commander in chief of the Rus
sian armies, on his arrival at head
quarters TO obtain from the govern
ment instructions as to his mission TO
the inter-allied conference to be held
in Paris, said to a representative Of
the Moscow newspaper Outrorossi that
the conference would ascertain the ex-
act strength Of Russia her combative
power and her attitude toward the
other nations of the Entente. II the
internal situation in Russia at that
time was not such as to inspire conf
dence among the Allies, he added, it
would be better not 10 send him.
In fact" said Gen. Alexieff, Il
should refuse to go"
General Alexieff concluded by say
ing that Russia's complete weakness
would be recognized at the conference.
He expressed the view that Japan
would make her entry into the Euro
pean theatre, but that she certainly
would demand compensation at the ex-
pense Of the weakest nation-Russia.

London, Oct. l2-Niscount Chlnda Jap
anese ambassador TO Great Britain. was
one Of the speakers at the American
Luncheon Club today.
Niscount Chinda paid tribute to the
entry Of the United States into the war.
He declared that the alliance between
Ja pan and the United States in the world
war would cement a lasting friendship be-
tween the two nations. He pointed out
that the German propaganda in both the
United States and Japan for many years
had had the purpose Of creating Ill feel
ing between the two peoples for what he
said were obvious reasons. II dwell upon
these grave activities. said Eiscount
EChinda, for the purpose of warning you
against their recurrence. The Germans
are only awaiting the opportunity TO re-
rev them in some new and insidious
form. The manner in which they have
tried to paint the proud japanese nation
as towards, dastards turncoats and rene
gades s nothing short OF monstrous But
Il is an Illuminating commentary on the
inner workings OF the German official
mentality"

Vast expenses of land and ice which

Macmillan said. will be conquered
through the great messengers Of the
air. During the four years which
spent in the Arctic regions I became
impressed with the necessity for unit

which required months of effort by my
companions and myself could have
been done in a matter of hours from
Grant Land to Cape Columbia and
from the latter point back to McCor-
mick bay in matter of day by
