Petrograd, Nov. Russia is worn out
by the strain of war and must have help,
Premier Kerensky to-day told the AS
sociated Press. He said Russia claims
as her right that the other allies now
should shoulder the burden she has borne,
Russia has been fighting IS months long
er than England and has fought her bat
ties alone, the premier said.
The premier was told that it had been
said by travellers that the opinion gen
orally, if not officially, was that Russia
was out of the war. kerensky laughed
as Russia out of the war? That he
answered, sis ridiculous question Rus
sia is taking an enormous part in the
war. Russia began war for the allies
while she was already fighting. England
was only preparing and America only
observing. People who say she is out
of the war have short memories.
"At present Russian opinion is great
ly agitated by the question, Where is
the great British feet, now that the Ger
man feet is in the Baltic?"
"The world must not lose faith in the

because it Is an economic one, not pol
litical. No one has right to feel dis
as it takes years TO develop
a stable government. Americas most
useful way of helping is sending boots,
leather, iron and money"
The premier said it would be impossi. |
bic for the United States to send troops |
because of the difficulties of transporta-
ion.

poses Reports received from all parts
of the state indicate that this produc-
tion was decreased to such an extent dur
ing the past year that very little dry
wood is in the market and that the price
of such has greatly increased. For years
many communities have depended on
wood for fuel, and TO have this supply
cut off now win be a great hardship to
them.
"This state of affairs is especially
when we take into considera
tion the great shortage of coal and the

energies toward awakening the people to
