RUSSIA HAS A MESSIAH.
Kerensky's Cousin Says Jews See Him
As Their Messiah.

Chicago. October %: = Premier
Kerensky. of Russia, is the Messiah
for whom the Jews have been look
ing since the time of Elijah.
This is the firm conviction Of his
second cousin. Miss Helen Corn. No
1927 Calumet avenue. Chicago. 1t
has always been the impression OF
the Jews that their Messiah would
be a great leader she declared.
Where have we a greater leader IN
history than the man who freed
l90.O00.000 people,
Helen's father, S a Corn. who
changed his name from kerensky in
1892, so he could get passport out
of Russia, is Kerenskys first cousin.
Kerensky's father is Fedore Keren-
sky" said Mr. Corn. He became
a doctor at Wilma University and
went to Slutzk. Later, when he
sought admission to the university
at Charkov. his petition was denied
because he was Jew.
Some time after. however. he
was transferred to Charkov. Here
he met Miss Celia Adler. They were
married and it is their son who is
now premier of Russia.
When the present Premier was
nine years old his father and mother
became Greek Catholics so that the
former might become an army doc
tor. He is now retired with the
rank of general.
The persecution of the Kerensky
family started when Alexander ii,
the last Cars grandfather. was
killed in 1881. Twelve of the fam
lily disappeared and the rest were
driven out of St Petersburg.
The Premier has been too busy
fighting for the freedom of Russia
to give heed to his health. He was
strong. however. until his exile to
Siberia, from 1905 to 1907

The new orientation" movement
which We read about in Berlin dis
patches nowadays began about a year
ago. II was started by the National
Liberal party for the purpose of get
ting the government 10 agree TO n
Peichstag Committee on Foreign Re-
lotions to have as much power as the
Foreign Office in dealing with inter
national affairs. The National Liberal
party, which is made up Of and sup
ported by the great ammunition and
war Industries. is really reactionary.
All National Liberal party reforms are
calculated TO place more authority IN
the National Liberal party in the
Reichstag than ia the people. New
oTieutation" Is the term used also by
officials to describe the movement in
Germany for the readiustment Of con-
Gitious when the war Is over.
For many months there have been
forces az work in Germany to change
the government after the war. This
movement. however. did not look for
ward 20 the removal of the Kaiser. It's
object was 70 change the laws govern
ing the Emperor's Cabinet, making the
minister responsible TO the Reichstag
ard indirectly TO the people. To-day
the Kaiser has sole power to name or
discharge any one in the government.
from postal clerk to the Imperial
Chancellor The Kaiser too, has sole
power TO decide all military and civil
questions. and after he decides there
is no appeal. That is what the Social
ists object to. And they look forward
20 n Socialistic state when the Kaiser
viii have no more influence than any
other German.
During the war the Socialist party
has grown faster than any other or
ganization. Every new election TO the
