iS"o '>S' eHSNJ appeal LOT F1eIp.
Washington, Nov. 3.-Premier Ker-
ensky's declaration that Russia is
worn out by the strain of war Is re-
garded by official Washington as a
Macedonian cry for help.
While the Russian officials cabled
words were still ringing in Americas
ears, the United States government
reiterated its faith in the struggling
nation with authorization of loan of
$31,700OO0 out of credits previously
arranged
Officials generally, including Secre-
tary of State Lansing, insisted that
kerensky's interview given to the AS
sociated Press did not mean that Rus
STA is out of the war, and the Russian
embassy issued statement insisting
that kerensky's words could not be
given such an Interpretation.

Buffalo Meeting Delegates
Reaffirm Their Loyalty
to Government
FEW PACIFISTS
ARE SMOTHERED

BUFFALO, n. Y, Nov. 2i-without
dissenting vote the American Federation
of Labor reafilrmed yesterday its I'M
swerving loyalty to the country and a
determination 10 stand behind the Ma
tional Administration until peace comes.
The pacifst element, which yesterday
mustered a small minority against the
attitude Of Samuel Gompers, the presI-
dent, in support of, the war, was silent.
The resolution containing the declara-
ton was reported favOrably by the res
olutions committee. It was sweeping
In scope. The course pursued by Mr..
Gompers In calling a conference Of the
national and international officers Of
the federation at Washington on March
70 was approved and all his subsequent
actions and those Of the executive coun-
Gil with reference TO the war were con-
Cured in.
The paciflsts declared they were IN
aware that the resolution was to come
up yesterday. They made no move for
a reconsideration, however, and it was
pointed out, while their fight on Mon
day was based on a vote Of confidence
in Mr.. Gompers, yesterdays resolution
called for a declaration on a clear-cut
question Of loyalty to the country.
This resolution. with others from the
committee on resolutions, occupied Writ
ually the entire day. James Duncan,

the other guns in from 10 to so shots.
The Browning gun, however, continued
through the 100 shots without a skip,
although the grit in the working parts
slowed down the rapidity OF fire to
about 300 shots per minute.
1.-THE explanation" gun expert Ia
ter said, lis that the margin Of toler-
ance in the parts Of the Browning gun
allowed the particles Of grit to roll
around somewhat like ball-bearings,
slowing down the action but never
stopping It. In the guns whose every
part was machined TO the thousandth
part Of an inch, the sand simply
clogged the mechanism after a few
shots and put them out Of business"
The biggest handicap now to the
production Of tremendous quantities
Of machine guns in this country.
Browning declares, is the insistence In
certain official quarters on the theor-
etically correct requirement Of abso-
Lutte, hair-splitting accuracy in every
part.
Somebody. Browning believes, should
cut this red tape. The immediate re-
suit, he declares, would be a tremen-
dous bound in our daily output of
guns-and Of guns that IN 80 cases
out of 100 would give better service.

HARTFORD, Conn, Nov. 2i.-why do
machine guns so often lam and go out

Why are they so expensive and slow
Of production2
The answer TO both. according 90
John NJ. Browning father Of auto
matio firearms" who has Just per.
fected two new machine guns adopted
by the government, is
Over-reflnement.
Too much inslstence on absolute ad-
justment of every part, leaving no
margin Of tolerance for operation when
overheated or clogged with dirt,
Browning believes, is one Of the errors
causing most trouble with machine
guns. And this same requirement for
absolute machining adds to the cost
and time Of production.
