DVINSK AS A PIVOTAL POINT
Thriving Russian City That Controls
River Dvina Valley, One of the
Strongest Fortified.

Dvinsk, one of RusSia's strongest for
titled cities, is described in a bulletin
issued by the National Geographic So
ciety, which says:
with q population of 10000, in
Guiding 10000 Jews, Dvinsk is a city
of prime Importance to Russia, for 1t
virtually controls the whole valley of
the River Dvina, upon whose right
bank it is situated, ITO miles Obs
miles by river) southeast of Riga.
''Not only is Dvinsk important as
strategic river point, but as a thriving
railway center. It is the junction
point for the great arteries of COM
merce running from Riga to Smolensk,
and from Petrograd to Wilma. There
IS also an imIartant railroad to Libau.
Dvinsk is 332 miles by rail southwest
of Petrograd.
"Dvinsk is an important agricultural
center, enjoying an extensive trade In
flax, hemp and grain. 1t is also a big
timber market, and its flourishing in
dustries before the war included flour
mills, breweries, match and tobacco
factories, tanneries, brick and tile
works.
I'm most encyclopedias and gazeteers
the city is listed under its old name
of Dnaburg. but in 1893 the Russian
authorities officially declared it to be
Dvinsk.
During Napoleon's Russian cam
paign in 1912 Marshal Oudinot tried
in vain to capture the bridgehead at
Dvinsk, but the honor of taking the
city was reserved for Macdonald a few
weeks later"

RUSS LEADER SEEKS
SAFETY IN FLIGHT
kERENsKY, DESERTED BY HIS
OWN OFFICERS AND MEN,
HAS DISAPPEARED.
ONCE Popular Leader of Russia Now
NJ Hiding, Criticised and Censured
by Former Friends as Well
as Enemies.

London. From Russia the latest dis
patches report Premier Kerensky IN
flight, his whereabouts unknown In Pc
trograd. after having been defeated by
Bolsheyiki, and deserted by the great
or part of his own officers and men.
He is now being hunted by his enemies.
One report attributed the premier's de-
feat to the intervention of Lettlsh
forces. 10000 strong. on the side of
the Bolsheylki. The Bolsheviki are
also apparently In control of Moscow,
where the provisional government
forces are reported to be penned with
In the Kremin under artillery bonn
bardment. Unconfrmed reports say
the bombardment was followed by the
arrangement of a truce between the
hostile factions.
Another dispatch says peace has
been declared in Moscow with victory
for the Bolsheviki. The white guard
has been disarmed and likewise the
military cadets. Two trainloads of
the red guards en- route from Petro-
grad TO Moscow to support the Boil
sheviki soldiers there have been
stopped and at the same time railway
telegraph reports indicate that the
Cossacks are making progress north
ward and that the Bolsheviki are in
panic In consequence of their near APP
proach.
Nowhere throughout a journey from
the Caucasus to Petrograd did cor
Of the London Daily Tele-
graph hear word of sympathy for
Premier Kerensky. The educated pas
,engers he met, he says in dispatch
sent from Petrograd on Monday, We're
nfuriated ut Kerensky's laxity In per-
hitting the Bolsheviki agitation and /
soldiers were indignant that the pre-
nier was unable TO maintain author
~ and order Railway men, the cor
adds, said that Kerensky |
md Lenine and Trotsky, the Bolshe-
Xxi leaders, all ought TO be thrown
nto the Neya.
For the provisional government no
where was there spark of enthusi-
sm. he adds. as it was felt to have
deserved its fate. Everywhere, how
yer. the correspondent found long
ag for real order and real authority
nd for somebody who would save Rus
ia from trouble.

FEARS NOT u.eoAT PERIL.
Lloyd George Announces Five u-Boats
Sunk In One Day.


I.ondon.-By the shrewdest political
coup of his career. Premier Lloyd
George ON November 10 sent a thrill
of jubllation through partly hostile
parliament before which he was on
trial for his "brutally frank" Paris
speech. I'm the midst of an eloquent
defense OF the internally war council.
he suddenly switched 10 the submarine
question and announced triumphantly !;
give U-boats were destroyed last
Saturday alone. There Is no longer
any ground for fear Of the submarine
peril"
ramultuous cheering swallowed the
second sentence. The house of com
mons resounded for several minutes
with an ovation such MS has not been
heard there since the fail OF Bagdad.
Ii was the gladdest news Britain has
heard about the U-boat campaign since
the birth of thar menace. The real
subject OF the debate was. forgotten,
aud rejoicing OF tho whole house cen
tralized itself automatically In enc
great reclamation of the announcer of
the glad tidlngs.

UNITY Of ACTION
VITAL TO VICTORY
UNITED WAR OF ALLIES TO
INSURE VICTORY.
Colonel House and the Members of His
Mission Prepared to Prove How Al
lied Cause Has Suffered Through
Lack of Cooperation.

Washington.-Th demand of the
United States for unity of action
among the allies, as a result of the
Paris conference will be more than
general in its terms, it was learned
here Saturday from authoritative
sources. Colonel House and the mem
bers of his mission have gone LOADED
for bear" They have in their posses
sion facts and figures which will go to
prove how the allied cause has suf-
fered through lack of cooperation in
every phase of the war.
They win represent the need of:
l. Military and naval cooperation
?. Pooling of financial, economic
and munitions resources.
3. The joint direction for the COM
mon good of the course and cargo of
every ship that sails the seas.
The first step is already in a fair
way toward accomplishment, through
the formation of the Foch-Wilson-Ca-
dorna committee and the close coop
GRAFTON Of the allied navies.
The second step has long been a
more OF less accomplished ldcl,
through the financial commission,
which has been sitting in Paris and
passing upon the needs of the various
allies and the ability of the United
States and other countries to fill them.
1t is from the third step, the CO.
of the worlds shipping, that
the most revolutionary results are ex-
pected.
U. S. Will Assert Rights.
From other sources 1t is learned
that the blouse mission" is to take
every means within its large powers
20 bring about unified control of ship
ping. 1t will present comprehensive
md well-worked out plan whereby all
he ships afloat can be controlled for
he benefit of the allied cause. 1t is
Indicated that the United States will
submit willingly to the greater mill
airy and naval experience of England
france and Italy in the formation of
he military and navy control. But in
he control of the economic phases of
he war and in the control of shipping
he United States will say, This is
where we come in"
