tongue.
 Finland's complaint against Rus sia, now happily dissolving, was only dozen years old, said MT. Jansen. It dated from that extra-reaction- ary regime which following, and ap- parently regretting, the Czar's con- sessions to the people in 1905, sought to upset all the benefits granted Finland. Since that time, Jansen declared. Russian governors sent to govern Finland have devoted themselves largely to the difficult task of stamping out the identity of the Films as separate people.
 "Von Seyn concentrated on the job of making Russian moAjiks out of the Finns." he said.
 ''The Films are a peaceful, pa- tient people. It is hard to see what the old regime feared from them. Possibly it was simply a way of ex- torting more money, thirty million HdTkS naS Deou tdken duuudiiJ III taxes for the Imperial government in recent years. part of this being spent in the maintenance of Russian officials and troops in Finland"
 Finland, if all goes well with the war from this time forth, stands to gain a great deal at comparatively small sacrifice. It will have its au- tonomy assured without ever having put soldier in the field.
 But the Films have felt bitter, nevertheless. The men have not been slaughtered, the women and child ren have not been brutally mistreat- ed. Only their language, their lite rature and their cherished institu- tions have been put to the sword. The Films accepting such suppress sion outwardly probably would have continued secretly their loyalty to their own for many generations to come. had not the revolution inter- vened to make secrecy unnecessary.

 LONDON, April 29, (By Mail-.- "Kultur". That. so Jan Jansen de clared, is what Finland hopes to win from this war.
 But Jansen, let it be added hastily was talking in Finnish and he didn't mean the thing which German Kul- tur has come to mean to everybody except the Germans. The boss of the Russian branch bank, in which Jan sen is clerk, and the banks Eng fish interpreter explained what it meant.
 Finland wants Finnish school houses-with Finland's flag floating above them-flled with Finnish children learning ther own languagc, literature and history. The Finnish people want the right to pursue their own way unmolested. They are ready to believe that the war not only will give them the right, but that, through the Russian revolution it has already done so.
 Full freedom from Russian rule is not expected but self-govern- ment in all affairs that solely con cern Finland is part of the peoples demand. They wish to manage their business affairs, to continue the de velopment Of their country, their road and harbor building, for the benefit of themselves. Above all they want their nationality preserved.
 Any American city or community that has its Finnish colony will understand all this for in every such community the center of the peoples life is Finnish Hall, an institution devoted to culture rather than hi- larity. Finnish Halls keep the native language alive as far as possible, even in America. It is easy to un- derstand the implacable attitude ot the Films at home toward Russian efforts to stamp out their mother

Howard Elliott Explains Move on
Ground Luxuries Must Go.

Howard Elliott. chairman OF the
committee OF fve selected to look
over the great task Of organizing the
railroads for war service, told the
members of the National Industrial
Traffic League that the people were
not awake to the crisis and that
many hardships would have to be
borne before the end of the conflict
with Germany.
Mr.. Elliott said railroad experts
had already been sent to Russia and
France to make a survey OF the work
necessary there and that some OF the
regiments Of railroad engineers had
already been organized and would go
to Europe within thirty or sixty
days"
In outlining the work to be done
Mr. Elliott said the time might come
when the railroads must be used for
the carrying OF essentials, not for
the beneft Of the railroads, but for
the welfare OF the country. The
railroads, he said, had undertaken
the task unselhshly with the purpose
of giving the Government the most
effective service while Keeping In
view the fact that they could not dis
regard wholly the interests OF many
thousands OF certificate holders and
employees.
