RUSSIA PROVES ITS FIDELITY
TO THE REVOLUTION

The Russian artillery, long inactive
from lack of shells, played an impor-
tant' part in the defeat of the Austro-
Germans at Koniuchy. For two days
a rain iron was thrown into the
German positions and Berlin says of
ficially that they were turned into a
crater field. The Russians not only
carried three lines of German trench
es and Koniuchy, which was strongly
fortified, but also advanced to the
Koniuchy stream south of the village
which is on the Zolta Lipa river.
Around BrzezanS the fighting was
most bitter and Betlin claims that
sixteen Russian divisions were thrown
forward. The Russians carried the
fortified Teuton positions at several
points in the face of a desperate re-
sistance.
Minister of War Kerensky personal
ly led the Russian revolutionary
army. In message to Premier Lv-
off, he says that the offensive proved
to Russia and the entire world its
fidelity to the revolution and its love
for liberty"
