Hertling's Acceptance
of ChanceIlOrship Is
Puzzling London Critics

LONDON, Nov. 2.-Just what Won
Hertling's acceptance of the German
chancellorship means puzzled London
Owing to Hertlings past record of
bitter enmity to parliamentary rule,
observers found it hard to reconcile
the reported agreement with the
Reichstag majority to carry out Prus-
sian ELECTORAL reforms, conduct Ger
manys foreign policy on the basis of
Germany's reply to the Dope's peace
note, ana stop political governments
fostered by governing officials.
Miohaolis apparently cut the Ger
man governing power. Berlin reports
declared Hertling refused to accept
the chancellorship unless he was also
made Prussian premier. the post Sr-
iginaiiy intended for Aiichaelis.
The removal of Vice Chancellor
Helfferich is likely.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-Russia will not
fight this winter officials believe.
Russia is counted out as a military
factor. England France and the
United States must bear the brunt Of
the war.
Russian participation next summer
depends entirely upon whether Keren-
sky, who is now gaining strength over
the radical Bolcheviki party, will be
able to remould Russia's strength.
Snow, ice and cold will hold the in
vaders untfI next spring.
America Must Hold West.
The foreign office didn't issue a
statement, but officials privately en-
phasized the belief that America must
soon hold a greater part of the west
ern front.
Certain official circles didn't hesi-
tate to declare that German propa-
ganda service had scored a greater
victory in paralyzing Russias military
activities than that which Macken-
sens armies have scored in Italy's
temporary military defeat.
To Rebuild Government
Officials believe Russia must re-
place her tottering governmental
foundations before she can exert the
smallest balance of military power.
