Germany Pushing Italy
Out of War, Sweden's View
By Carl Lnndberg

LONDON, Nov. 10-The Swedish pro-
Ally press Is more pessimistic to-day
than at any time during the whole war.
The events IN Italy have made a great
impression on Sweden. The whole
press seems to believe that Germany Is
pushing Italy out Of tho war.
The Social Democraten" to-day in a
violent article assuses the Allies Of
having caused the Bolshevih success in
Russia by refusing TO support the Rus
sian proposition for peace conference.
The Swedish press comments on the
Russian coup d'etat, express the opin-
ion that the Russian people could not
continue 20 fight for imperial Russia's
aims, and that when the Allies would
not listen TO their demands for APP
preaching peace Russia had taken her
fate into her own hands.
A private telegram to the Alton
blsdet" from Finland states that Ger
man troops have disembarked on the
AlAnd Islands.

German Cabinet
Called Coalition
Liberal in Berlin
All Important Factions in
Reichstag, Except Con-
servatives, Represented

BERLIN, Nov. s.-Dr. Karl Helfer-
ich, the Vice Chancellor, has capitu-
lated and political peace once more has
been restored The Cabinet, containing
Count Won Hertling as Chancellor,
Friedrich Won Payer as ViceChancellor
and Herr Friedberg as Vice-President
of the Prussian Ministry, means a
virtually coalition Liberal government.
The Clerical, National-Liberal and
Progressive parties are represented
actively in the Cabinet. The Socialists
accept the appointment of von Payer
as evidence that Count Won Hertling
is willing to work with the present
group of Reichstag majority parties,
but they are reserving to themselves
complete liberty of action. The Con-
seryatives are the only important
Reichstag faction not having member
in the new government, which may be
said TO mark the active initiation of the
first Parliamentary Cabinet in Prus-
STA and Germany.
Chancellor Won Hertling returned to-
day TO Munich, where he will assist in
the reorganization of the Bavarisn
Ministry, from which he retires. His
first public appearance as Chancellor
IS expected to take place when the
Reichstag opens its next session, on
November %.
The Liberals are now getting ready
to combat the Reactionaries in their
efforts to obstruct the enactment of
the Prussian electoral reform bill.
These measures are expected to be
ready for first reading at the end Of
this month. The Clericals, National
Liberals, Progressives, Socialists and
Poles will constitute an ample major
ity for it IN the lower chamber Of the
Prussian Diet.

Return of Kerensky to
Power Likely to Follow
Blow at Petrograd
By Isaac Don Levine

The capture OF Helsingfors, capital
Of Finland, by the Germans may be .
factor Of immense import In the prest
ent Russian situation. II anything
could stop the tide Of Bolshsvikism In
Russia to-day It would be German
offensive. II anything could force at
the present juncture the return Of
Kerensky and Kornilofi back to power.
it would be Teuton blow at Perograd
or a successful attack on the Russian
Baltic feet.
The report of Q German landing IN
Finland bears the earmsrks Of truth.
as II also reports the landing Of several
Finnish detachments with the Ger
mans. u is known that upward OF
three thousand Firms have volunteered
to fight in the Prussian army sgains;
Russia. II 10 also known that since
the Russian revolution these Firms
have been formed into separate units,
dedicated TO the Liberation OF their
fatherland.
Germans May Make Mistake
At first thought one would not ex-
pect the Germans to wage OFFENSIVE
warfare against Russia these DAYS.
Whatever the ultimate issue OF the
Bolsheviki rule will be, the Germans
may confidently anticipate PERIOD OF
turmoil in Russia that would play INTO
their hands admirably. From the point
of view Of German interests, thereIote'
/ it would be an act OF seif-inJury 10

the military branch Of the German
government pursues it's plans In re,
CARELESS manner. II has long planned

Tire activities of the German fleet near
Riga also point in the same direction,
The latest reports show that the

ease with which they could destroy the
Russian feet or capture the Russian
capital. But by doing 90 they would
render the greatest possible aid to the
moderate and conservative elements OF
Russia. The Bolsheviki, the lnterna,-
tionalists and the other pacifsts would
be wiped out Of existence by patriotic
wave.
The Russians are essentially patrl-
otic. Even the Russian radicals, who
dream of universal brotherhood and
cosm opolitism, love their country pas
sionately. The conservatives, liberals
and radicals are now split into numer-
Gus. factions. A German offensive
would create a common state OF mind
and sentiment among all Of them. The
mujik would defend his land, the bour-
geois his country, the radical the revo-
luton, which Is synonymous with free
Russia.
II union is essential for the salvation
of a country, then only In defeat can
Russia find her salvation. The greater
the German blows, the. quicker the fu-
sion Of all elements IN Russia. The
German offensive, II II only develops,
is to-day one great source of hope Tor
a resurrection Of Russia's nationalism
and of her fighting spirit.

Victory in War Up
ToU.S. and Britain,
Is Belief Abroad
This Is a Battle of Real
Fighting Spirit, Pershing
Tells Observer

Immediate coordination Of all the
forces Of this country and its allies
Is absolutely necessary to bring the
war TO a victorious conclusion, accord
ing to Isaac +. Marcosson, who re-
turned yesterday after four months
visit to the French, British and Ital-
ian fronts.
From General Pershing, whom he
saw at his headquarters in France, Mr..
Marcosson brought the following mes
sage to the American people:
"The American troops In France
must be made to realize that the whole
country is behind them. This is a war
of the real fighting spirit, and the best
way to keep that spirit alive is TO
have a united nation stimulating and
encouraging its army at the front"
The Allies, particularly the British,
Mr.. Marcosson said, were Of the opin-
ion that il was the work of the United
States and Great Britain to bring the
war TO an end.
"There has been too much optimism
as regards the war" Mr.. Marcosson
said. "The situation at present is more
critical than it has been in the last two
years, and Germany is stronger than
1t was year ago. Each annual autumn
nal foray which Germany has made
Serbia, Rumania, Russia and now Italy
has given her large quantities Of sup
plies and strengthened her at home.
"The feeling is growing in the Allied
countries that the war will last at least
two years longer"
Regarding Russia, which he visited
at the time Of the revolution last
spring, Mr.. Marcosson said if she makes
a separate peace at least 100000 Aus
trian and German prisoners would be
released and that Germany would be
able TO recoup and make almost fresh
start. Lenine Mr.. Marcosson character
lied as the most dangerous destructive
force in Russia.
Lenine has always been pro- German"
he said. "He organized an anti-Ameri-
can demonstration, and with 1900 fol-
lowers paraded TO the American EN-
bassy, the windows Of which were
broken with stones.
1.-THE tragedy of Russia is that Keren-
sky and Korniloff, representing concili-
alton and the policy Of the mailed fist,
could not agree. Together they could
have saved Russia.
"Italy has no great grievance against
Germany" Mr.. Marcosson continued.
austria is her enemy, and as soon as
the troops heard that they were facing
Germans they began to back down. In
one week Italy lost ground which il
took her eighteen months to gain, and
| do not know whether she will ever
be able to get il back"

Separate Peace With
Russia Is Not Expected,
View of German Press

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 10.-The first
German newspapers containing COM
ment on the Russian coup d'etat to
arrive here make no attempt to jump
at conclusions and predict speedy peace
with Russia. On the other hand. the
impression prevails quite widely that
the Maximalists may be compelled by
the force Of circumstances to follow
much the same policy as the Kerensky
regime as soon as they find that a non
annexation peace is not TO be attained
early by proclaiming their readiness to
conclude such a peace.
Several newspapers refer TO the fact
that the declared policy Of the Maxi
malists is for a general peace. not a
separate one, and this on the basis of
absolutely no annexations. 1t Is gen

War Dictator
Not Yet in Sight

This is the organization that is fore
Swallowed by the Italian arrangement
and 1t is the one that is foreseen by
the men her who have been working
hard TO bring about unity. These men
have talked of a dictator OF the war,
but in their hearts they realized the
difficulty of getting several different
democratic nations TO surrender their
prerogratives and make one man mas
ter.
Had the war developed dominating
military personality he might have i'm,
posed himself as the real master while
the forms of separate control were pre-
served. That may come yet. but it is
not in sight.
Criticism is heard here and found in
the London dispatches OF Committee
management" of the war. Every one
agrees that such control is not ideal.
But committee management will be in
fnitely better than no unified manage
ment at all. Since this country's en-
trance into the war il has found not
one policy, but half a dozen different
policies, each fighting the other. The
revelations began when the British and
French missions arrived here. They
came over to help us and, they failed
to agree upon any single point of
policy! What happened then b.
kept right on happening. 1t has been
responsible for many OF our mistakes
and for much waste.
The best hope that lies in committee
management is that some man in the
committee or outside II and working
through it will be powerful enough to
be the boss Of the war, while the forms
of democratic control are scrupulously
obseryed

"The Amazons."

Marguerite Clark is at her fascinat-
ing best In "The Amazons," which Is
announced as the Grand's Friday Of
fering. The story, adapted from SIR
Arthur Wing Pinero's famous stage
play. is q lively comedy dealing with
the eeeentricities Of mother who
tries to bring up her three daughters
as boys, with ludicrous results. There
is not slow or uninteresting moment
IN the whole picture. As the romplng
tpmbsy, the daredevil "cut-up," Miss
Clark has the most bewitehingly
delightful role Of her screen career.
Fer multitude of admirers will be de-
lighted with her appearance in THE
Amazons," not only because OF her
own clever work, but by reason OF her
excellent support, the fine direction
good photography, handsome scenic
investiture and all the smaller things
that make the production measure up
as thorough. Besides being genuine
sy eSeiting and full Of fun, the film
possesses the inimitable charm which
eharacterizes every one of Miss
Glark's pictures.

"OLD GLORY" ABROAD.
A Patriotic Travellers Tribute to the
Nations Flag.

Edwin c. Wood, a prominent New
York business man, recently sent the
following communication to his local
paper at RockaWay Beach, and we are
glad to comply with Mr.. Woods sug-
gestion that the inspiring contribu-
ton be reproduced in the Chief:
'In reading over a little volume of
Foreign Travels written by my
father, Jacob B. Wood, in 1852,
found the following expression Of the
emotions that stirred in his breast af-
ter several months travelling through
Europe, when on entering the harbor
Of Marseilles, France, he saw sOld
Glory flying to the breeze from the
peak of the u. s. S. frigate hide
pendence:
!" In the outer harbor we hailed
with enthusiasm the stars and stripes
floating upon the breeze from the
tall spars of the frigate Independ-
ence, and we almost felt at home
again as we. saw this arm of our ma
lions power, and felt ourselves with
in it's influence. We had found in
deed, wherever we travelled, uni
versal prestige in favor of our ma
tional character, and it was pleasant
to see the banner Of our country
borne aloft by force that could
make it respected wherever it's shadow
should fall; and pleasanter still to
know that after all the glory of that
flag is more in the moral associations
with which it is connected than in the
physical force that could be brought
to sustain it; that however monarchs
and aristocrats may hate its republi-
can blazonry, yet to the hearts Of the
people the world over it bears aloft
the principle of human rights and
speaks the language Of hope to all
the down-trodden of the earth.
Wherever it waves, it is an emblem
Of liberty that cannot fail to have its
effect, silently at least, upon all who
aspire after that freedom to which
the laws Of nature and Of natures
God entitle them
"Let us hope the sight Of the
American flag will thus inspire the
heart and mind of every American,
whenever or wherever it floats, bea-
con of liberty and freedom; an in
spiration to the down-trodden sub
iects Of tyranny and militarism
