DIVIDED AS TO MEASURES
TO PERPETUATE SOVIET
Three Bolshevik Factions Striving
to Shape Policy-Views Of
Foreign Observers.

MOSCOW, July 20 (de1ayed) (by AS
sociated Press courier to Stockholm).
-Bolshevik leaders are divided as to
the best means of perpetuating soviet
Russia One faction wants a real
army to fight Germany and believes
actual war with Germany will be nee
essary. Another faction. which in
cludes those who lean toward the so
cial revolutionists, would wage guer-
rilla warfare against Germany and at
tack Germans wherever and whenever
possible. The third and predominant
group urges the preservation of the
Brest peace and clings to the hope
that social revolution in Germany and
all the rest of the world will be
brought about by constant agitation.
Such revolution in Germany, in the
opinion Of this group, will mean the
restoration to Russia of all it's terri
tory and the permanency of the soviet
government.
Many foreign observers believe the
flower Of the Russian army and the
best Of the old officers fell in the Arst
three years OF the war. Other OBJ
servers are confident the officers and
men Of the disbanded army constitute
a mass out Of which a smaller army
WIN some day be created to overthrow
German oppression.

we have been renting out, and we

in which we were living and asked

course, they declined to give it to US.
We could find no place to, go. We
had stored our furniture and are SIM
ply existing in a little room we were
fortunate enough to secure, and they
enjoying the comforts of our home
at the same rent we asked in 1916.
We are in very moderate circum-
stances, while they are people of

are from one of the western states
and just living here simply for the
pleasure they get out of it. None of

We need our home and need it badly

some one in the District bold enough

WHO IS PRoFITEERING? ?

Instances Of the unjust working of
the so-called Salisbury law enacted
as an emergency measure. pending
comprehensive act. to prevent COM
pulsory purchases of property under
penalty of eviction, continue to be
brought to attention through letters
to The Star. Some of these cases get
to court through proceedings brought
to secure possession of houses or
apartments, while others do not reach
that stage. Following are letters Of
this character, showing various ways
in which the law works hardship:
Law Bars Room Renting.
To the Editor Of The Star.
I happen to have two extra rooms
which would very gladly put at the
disposal Of war workers-preferably
women-if it were not for the Sauls-
bury bill. Nothing will induce me,
however. to run the risk of getting
into its clutches, and the four women
who might be here in comfortable
quarters must look elsewhere. II
me l could not ask them to go, and
if any necessity arose of my having
my house to myself again it would
not be possible. My next neighbor
has one room that she could easily
spare, and the neighbor on the other
side has two rooms. They quite agree
with me that we cannot run the risk.
Altogether, on the block in which 1
live twenty women could be COM
fortably accommodated if it were not
dream of taking "roomers'' except for
patriotic reasons. and as things stand,
even my patriotism is not strong
enough FOR me to run the unpleasant
risk of absolutely losing my liberty
as to whom 1 shall retain under my
own roof.
Under this bill the lessee is abso-
lute!y, protected and the lessor has
| no rights whatever. This is class leg
islation. My opposite neighbor is at
Inconvenience, and even hardship: she
| rented her hous in June, though she
| usually closes it for the summer, on
a distinctly short-time lease, till Oc-
have the advantage of her pleasant
home for two or three months. Re-
turning at the last of September with
a sick daughter, the tenant greeted
her with the news that he would not
move: They are both crowded into
awaiting justice. I could fill column
with specific instances l know OF the
hardship this bill has worked. Had
some clause been inserted to the ef-
feet that this bill did not affect any
short-time lease of less than six
months--leases made just for the
owners limited time OF absence and
in good faith-it would cover these
cases.
Justice has been defined as ''the un-
Wavering and persistent desire to give
to every man his full measure of
rights"
So long as the lessor knows that
hS will receive no protection under
any circumstances. these twenty
women whom our neighborhood would
readily house may seek quarters
elsewhere. The friend who goes south
after Christmas for four months will
close her house to insure her having
a place to live when she returns to
Washington. Otherwise, she would
cheerfully put it in order, for renting,
for the time of her absence.
Surely this half-baked legislation
will be adjusted! But till it Is terrible
wrong is being done.

Who Is Profteering?

To the Editor of The Star.
1 note Mr.. r. L. Hoxies question in
Mondays Star. "Who is Profiteering"?
Some years ago I leased to a tenant
a garage for monthly rental of
$160. This lease expired last summer.
Before it expired the tenant was ex-
ceedingly anxious TO renew it: so
much so that j concluded j would see
what the actual rental value of this
property was at that time. Upon full
investigation / found that he had
seventy-five cars at a monthly rental
of s1,ST5. He had three persons en-
ployed at s27o per month; rent. $160
per month: other expenses. SIS per
month: total expenses. $505, leaving
him $3.50 per month net. l tried to
repossess myself of this property, as
the lease had expired. My tenant
pleaded the Salisbury act. AS a re-
suit he is yet in possession, taking
in $1,370 net per month at my ex-
pense. Who is profiteering now?

AN ATTACK OF GRIP

Doctors in all parts of the country have
been kept busy with the epidemic of grip
which has visited so many homes. The
symptoms of grip this year are often very
distressing and leave the system in run
down condition, particularly the kidneys
which seem to suffer most, as almost every
victim complains of lame back and urin-
ary troubles which should not be neglect
ed, as these danger signals often lead to
dangerous kidney troubles. Druggists
report a large sale on DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root which so many people say
soon heals and strengthens the kidneys
after an attack of grip. Swamp Root,
being an herbal compound, has a gentle
healing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who try It. DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y, offer to send sam
pie size bottle of Swamp Root, on receipt
of ten cents, to every sufferer who re-

who may be in need of it. Regular medi-
