HELPING RUSSIA.

The president says that we must
help Russia. And nearly everybody
agrees with him But how? There's
the rub.
There can be no doubt that the big
majority Of Russians sympathl2e
with the Allies, or would If they were
enabled to understand the situation
They are beginning to resent bitter
~ the German aggressions. They no
more want to be swallowed by Prus
sia than the outer world wants them
to be But they are helpless, with.
out organization military or civil or
economic, without transportation,
without food, without intelligent lead
ership, cowed by a misrepresentation
government in virtual league with
Germany.
Ifewe could feed and arm the Rus
sian people, they would probably rise
and fight But how can we get food
and arms into Russia and distribute
them? Or supposing that they would
tolerate intervention how can we
get our own troops there, In effec-
tive numbers, and maintain their sup
plies?
Intelligent propaganda and sympa.
thy are about all we can contribute
now. II the Bolsheviki were unseat-
ed We could give financial support,
too; but there's no immediate hope
OF that Wen do well for the pres
ent II we succeed merely in persuad-
ing the bulk of Russians that we're

As for actual help, the logical place
to render it appears to be the ives.
tern battle front. We can fight for
Russia in France and Belgium And
the new empire that Germany is cary.
ing out of Russias remains will stand
or fall with the fate of France and
Belgium. When we have crushed
German resistance and blasted Ger.
man ambitions there we can dictate
proper Russian settlement.
If this reasoning is correct, il
follows that the way to help Russia
is to do exactly what we're doing
now, but do 1t little harder and
better.

They are only limited to nine inches.

bring the shoes up to the lower end
of the skirts, say the wise economists.
