FOOTBALL PLAYERS LESS
 HUSKY THAN BOOKKEEPERS

LONDON: American college ath- letes will find something to think about in this. A prominent Glasgow medical man who has just returned from d professional visit to the front in France says that professional foot ball players are not wanted in the trenches, and explains that this is so because their endurance is less than third of that of the ordinary soldier taken from the desk or the farm or the shop. He attributes this to the fact that they have been so long tuned" to the highest pitch to take part in the game. In addition, their nerves are So'acute that they cannot stand gunfire. as can the ordinary man. The doctor says ''it is like link ing up a racehOrse with an artillery team"

 RUSSIAN BEANS
British Labor Secretary Says Collapse of Kerensky Government Caus-
 ed by Meddlers

LONDON, March 21.-The cam paign for the next general election in England is on, and politicians are can wasting the voters for their franchise. Arthur Henderson, secretary of the labor party recently made a strong Appeal for the abolition of secret dip lomacy, for peace by conciliation, and a league of nations, he said that be- fore the war began people had en- trusted foreign affairs to diplomats, statesmen and strategists and were paying dearly for it. It had to be rec ognized that no greater disaster had occurred during the war than the fla tai omission to keep Premier Keren- sky in power in Russia. The people must be on their guard against the repitition of the same fatal policy in a wider field.
 MT. Henderson stated that it was highly improbable that the war can be ended by a decisive Prussian mili- tary triumph, but it might be ended by a process of exhaustion.
 There remains, he said, third al- ternative-a policy of conciiation thru the combined forces of labor and socialism to obtain real peoples peace. That did not mean a surrender to the enemy or patched up peace at any price, nor that the people are will ing to condone the brutality of Ger many or to leave her with her power for mischief unimpaired.
 What the policy of conciliation meant was the destruction of militar- ism, not only in Germany but every where Mr. Henderson recited the war aims of the labor party, including league of nations. He said that such a league implied the complete demo- cratization of the machinery of the government of all countries, the sup pression of the greed of diplomacy, and the publication of treaties which must not contravene the stipulation of compulsory military service of all countries, limitation of ornaments, and abandonment of commercial boycott against Germany.
 When a change of mentality occurs in governments, when the people can induce the governments to accept the broad human principles which inspire the proposals of allied labor, then a world peace is insured.
