NOT ONE TRAGEDY. BUT MANY.

Commenting on the failure of the Allies in dealing with the Russians the New York World says that all the diplomatic blunderS that were made natural blum ders They all proceeded" it continues, frOm the as sumption that the Russian people appreciated the value of the freedom that they had wOn and prepared defend the French had defended their freedom af ter the old Bourbon autocracy cast out But the Rus sians were not Frenchmen They had plenty of ideals but they did not know what practicable and what impractcable. They had no way of drawing line be- tween the possible and impossible.
 Tn the great crisis they had capacity for action There no important middle class to stabilize society There were no leaders except the BOshevk who could lead and they led apparently by virtue of their social po ltca and economic insanity, which appealed rreSisbly 10 the Russian temperament"
 The Allies assumed that whatever happened the Rus sanS had at least enough to pursue their own best interests and that those interests concded in the main with the war aims of the Allies the situation would work itself out But as events proved the Russians had sense of their best interests and the Boshevik proved to be the best tools that German marsm could have found for the crucifixiOn of nation
 Whatever mistakes Allied diplomacy may have made, is possible that the revolution could have had other result until the Russian people learned through bitter perence that liberty implies duties and obligations we'll rights and privileges and that popular government Elhu Root said is organized sefcontro Russia is not tragedy, but many tragedies If the Russian peo pe says the World in the light of their recent calamity beginning understand that they have been betrayed by the BOShevk Shamelessy they betray ed by their autocrats they have mastered the first lesson in political freedom.

COWBOY CORPS NICKNAME FOR
 US. AVIATORS

ROME, March 21, - Flying Cow boys" is the popular title given here, to Uncle SamS first fighting corps in Italy. The American aviators officers and students located at a training camp in southern Italy are frequent visitors in Rome and as they all wear the United States Army's service lat, uopularly known here at the cowboy hat the word cowboq has been applied to them.
 That these aviators are regarded as cowboys was illustrated. by an incident with a cab driver that occurred when a party of them were on leave in Rome and went outside the city walls to see the Catacombs of St. Calixtrs on the Appian Way. When the avia- tors cot out of the cab near the en- trance to the burial place of the eai!y Christians, they asked the cab driver to wait. so he could drive them back to the city.
 But my horse cao't stand the trip baci; with such heavy load" he ev plained. "It's war time and we have" n't corn or wheat to feed him, so he's too weak. I've got a family to sup port and I must take good care of this horse. You cowboys ought to un- derstand now it is"
 Very well, we'll buy you' horsl, won't we, fellows" spoke up one of the aviators who had just been paid off. "If he's still alive when we get back to town we will sell him back to you."
 While the proposition was made in all seriousness the driver, thinking he was about to be made the victim of some w;'d west trick, arbuptly refus- ed aad drove off with his plug, leav- lr. ,tc cowboys" to walk back.
