Tho Raber murder trial did not be.

II certaidly would not If that had
been the only reason set forth we

war
The conditions now were all that
Kerensky had desired: and on June
10. he issued this statement
After touring the whole OF Rus

firm that what hitherto was regard
ed as the dying agony of our army
was nothing else than the laborious
travail of the new Russian state. 1
can affirm that, notwithstanding the
destruction of the old discipline, the
power Of the Russian army is in
creasing daily, based as il is on a
new and intelligent discipline. l
can affirm, once for all. that fratern-

As if 10 test the basis of Keren-
sky's confidence, three pacifist regi-

on June IL, refused to obey orders;
whereupon their comrades marched
upon them. opened fire, and took
them prisoners And there has been

At this time, Kerensky was so

privately notified the allied govern

the army would begin an offensive

While the general attack was TO be

special assault was to be made in

sky appeared in person before the

woodland the Germans most OF all.
An important position was captured

ammunition and 10000 German

feet, however. far transcribed the
material gain. 1t proved that in one
short month Kerensky had recon
strUcted and revivified the Russian
army and had put behind il the pub

Even the obstreperous Petrograd
council of soldiers and workmen un-
animously congratulated the army
on its action
