KERENSKY RETURNS;
MAY BE NEW LEADER
By the United Press

Washington, Aug 13.--Kerensky. one
time hero of the Russian revolution. is
being groomed as the possible leader to
drive out the Bolsheviki and re-est ablish
his country, it was indicated today.
He is about to go to Archangel, 1t is
learned authoritatively. to throw his
weight with the new government of the
northern province. Observers IN some
quarters expect an attempt to extend
this government under kerensky's lead
ership to all of Russia.
1t is doubtful however. just how AL
lied Governments would take to keren-
sky as the Russian leader, although
some groups in France, England and
America are working in his favor.
kerensky recently planned to come
TO America to enlist President Wilson S
aid in restoring Russia, but preparations
of the Allies made this unnecessary,
Russian officials here said today.
Reports charging Kerensky with be-
ing pro-German. Bolshevik and a friend
of Lenine and Trotsky were stoutly de-
med by Russians here today.
Just who is their chief leader in the
new Archangel government is not yet
clear. But NJ. Zubof, assistant Mayor
of the City of Vologda and one of the
sgners of the new Government proc
lamation. has been mentioned before this
to the American Government as n strong
man. He is strongly pro-Ally.

rogation of the Brest-Litvosk peace
treaty may be expected any moment.
THE end of the Bolsheviki Is near. The
Constituent Assembly, composed of an
overwhelming majority of social revo-
lutionists and Socialists of the. Mem
shevik group are coming back into
power. Their first act will be an an
nouncement to the world that the shame
full Brest-Litovsk treaty no longer eN~
lists; that the revolutionary democracy
of Russia does not recognize II. An open
invitation to the Allied Governments to
send an army into Russia to help reor-
ganize her military forces for a renewed
fight on Germany will follow.
The United States Is the country that
is most trusted of all the Allies in
Russia. American help is eagerly await
ed. II will be embraced with cnthu-
siasm.
"Bolshevism Is dead It cut its own
throat when 1t signed the Brest-Litovsk
peace treaty. There may be unity sno
cooperation between the burgoise ana
the bankrupt Bolshevki. There can
never be any cooperation between the
latter and the revolutionary democracy.
And that means the vast majority OF
the people of Russia.
There is more anti-German feeling in
Russia today than there ever was The
murder of Count Mirbach, the represent
ative of German Imperialism in Russia
was as symbolic Of the downfall of the
brief sway of Germany over Russia as
was the assassination of Won Plevel OF
the inevitable downfall Of Czarism."
