Perhaps the worst criticism that can

Discussion as to Export.

STOCKHOLM. September 22.-The ex-
port Of a large quantity of America n
sugar to Finland by way of Sweden is
now the subject of diplomatic discus
sion among Russia, Sweden and the
United States. Sweden stipulates as a
precondition to permitting transit that
a certain amount shall be available for
Swedish consumption. Russia is un-
derstood to have been interested in the
conclusion of some arrangement owing
to the difficult food conditions In Fin
land, although the kerensky govern
ment is now using it's control over food
shipments from Russia to Finland as a
lever in its negotiations with the Fin
nish administration, which is endeavor-
ing to eliminate Russian authority over

Say Country Is Ruined.

The argument of the other extremists
is:
Socialist experiments have ruined the
country. The Soviets have destroyed
discipline in the army and reduced the
internal administration to chaos. They
have exposed US to disaster and disgrace
at the front and economic catastrophe at
home They imperil the existence of Rus
sia as a great power. They have brought
upon us the contempt Of our allies and our
enemies. They have made us ashamed
to face foreigners. They have made life
in Russia one long nightmare. We must
continue the war. otherwise the worst
of all disasters will come upon us. and
we shall be slaves OF the Germans.
But to continue the war we must
restore discipline in the army and or
der throughout the country, and for
this we must have strong central
lied government with complete power
to enforce its will, The Sovtets and
committees must be abolished. The
country must be ruled with an iron
hand The only possible issue from the

duties.
Officers should remember that they
are now officering revolutionary
army: that they are now recognized by
the entire Russian democracy, which
finds the creation of the mighty army a
necessity. The basis for the strength of
any army is lawfulness and a firm exc
cution of orders. Backed by the definite
will of the councils of soldiers, work
men and peasants. the officer body
should and must firmly proclaim the
demands of the service and insist on
their unqualified fulfillment"

BY ISAAC DON LEVINE,

Gen. A. I. Verkhovsky. Russias new
war minister. who announced that his
first task would be "to create a mighty
revolutionary army" is but thirty-four
years old, and Is the youngest war
minister in the world. Twelve years
ago he was chamber page to the car.
Today he Is Kerenskys right hand and
probably the only military man in Rus
sia capable of organizing a powerful
revolutionary army.
Korniloff. BrusiloH, Alexieff and Rus
sky are all great soldiers. but their
careers have been built under the Ro-
manon rule. Verkhovsky is new
type. He is a child of the Russian rev.
olution. Although chamber page to
revolutionary movement of 1905. and
was denoted from his rank and made
a private in an artillery brigade for his
socialistic propaganda. At that time
Nerkhovsky was twenty-five years old.
For more than two years he served as
n private, but. undismayed by his bad
luck. he worked hard and with ardor
till he was given cross OF ST. George
and again made an officer.
In 1908 Nerkhovsky entered the acad-
emy of the general staff. from which
he was graduated with a medal for the
best work on strategy in the school.
In August. 1914, Nerkhovsky. as a cap
tain. participated in the battle of Biala
and received another cross for distin-
guished service. In August, 1915, he
was appointed head of the operative
department of the ninth army.
Adventure at Sebastopol.

him in Sebastopol. The suppressed
