That pineapple refuse might be ali

about $50, 600 gallons of vinegar, VA

of National Defense and is told for
the first time, today.
The United States will make three
main classes of war aeroplanes:
Training planes, bombing machines
and observation aircraft.
The speedier allied battle planes
will continue to be made almost en-
tirely by France and Great Britain
where this type of machine has al
ready been perfected.
American auto plants, in part, will
be utilized to make the standardized
engines for the thirty Thousand aero
planes, the first year.
Furniture factories, typewriter
plants and other mills equipped for
the work will manufacture the wings
and other parts.
These arrangements, already per-
| fected by Chairman Howard Coffin of
the board, only await the passage by

appropriation to be asked.

TREASURE UNGUARDED
Americans Find Richly Appointed
Palace ut Petrograd Open to Public.

Petrograd, June 1S.-The members
of the Root commission attended
service in the imperial chapel of the
winter palace today and afterward
made a tour of the gigantic building
much of which is now in use as a
military hospital. Mr.. Root and his
associates talked with wounded SOL
diers and nurses occupying the great
banquet halls and drawing rooms of
the palace. They inspected the paint
ings and sculpture of the imperial
galleries, passing hundreds of peasants
who were being shown thru the palace
hitherto closed to the public.
The extreme democracy and ordi-
illness of the Russians was shown by
the utter lack of precautions to guard
the art treasures of the palace. The
former emperor's private apartments
were opened for pubic inspection.
Crowds passed quietly thru the apart
ment where Alexander II expired
from the effects of a bomb explos-
ion, leaving untouched the personal
belongings of the former emperor
which have not been disturbed since
his death.

aides will leave Petrograd tonight for

Russia's War Minister Realiz-
ing on His Popularity.
Issues Disciplinary Orders to
Force Army to Fight.

Petrograd, June 18.-Minister OF
War Kerensky discarded the pleasant
phrase Of oratorlcal persuasion today
for iron handed disciplinary meas
ures to force Russia's troops to fight.
He issued orders depriving all de-
serters from the army from the right
to vote and from participation in the
distribution of Russian lands.
He overruled a subsidiary branch
of the workmen's and soldiers dele
gates in granting permission to nine
companies of soldiers to leave the
front.
He refused leave to a whole divi-
sion of Ukranian troops who wanted
to journey back home and attend a
conference urging autonomy for
Ukrania. He sponsored a govern
ment order making all anti-war agi-
tators in the army liable to ten years
impriso lment.
Arrests Soldiers Committee.
81 hope 1 never hear of such an
incident again." was Kerenslly's short
dismissal of a request from COM
mittee of soldiers approved by the
workmen's and soldiers council of the
city of Buigulma for leave for nine
companies of soldiers. Moreover, he
ordered immediate arrest of the SOL
diers' committee.
That Kerensky is gaining strength
in his efforts to make Russia fight is
evidenced by several incidents of the
past few days.
The private soldier, Steppano. made
famous thruout Russia because Keren-
sky called him a coward" and dis
missed him from the army because
of his pacifist views, today requested
permission from the minister to re-
enlist to go to the front and die for
Russia. He explained his former views
were because he didn't understand
Russia's duty"
