President May Issue
Statement On Russia

Washington, March 16.-First in
President Wilson possibly might soon
make a statement bearing on the Rus
sian debacle came today.
There is no official indication of
the medium the president will choose
or when he will choose it, but it is
generally believed that as usual he
will direct his statement to the world
through an address to joint session
of congress.
Peace Unwelcome
Inference drawn from statements
by Lord Robert Cecil, British minister
Of blockade; Field Marshal linden
burg and General Ludendortf, that
Germany might be proposing a peace
at the expense of Russia, made peace
talk in general no more popular in
Washington than it has been at any
time since the United States went TO
war.
Officials everywhere declined to
make statements for the very reason
that any sort of a statement would
give comfort to a peace movement,
and they gave unmistakable indica-
lions of how unwelcome peace discus
sions were at this time.
This attitude of American officials
found highly interesting reflection
in French official dispatches giving
accounts of the interviews recently
given by Hindenburg and Ludendorf
at German headquarters and publica-
tions in German newspapers of the
situation on the eastern battle front.

ent fairs was discussed and was
adopted as had been arranged by the
local secretary with variations to suit
the length of programs of the different
meetings.
The question Of starting judge was
discussed briefly, Mr.. Moore stating
that he intended to employ DR.. Ma
thews, of Flandreau, S. D. The other
towns had made no selection and Mr..
Moore was asked to get terms and
otheD information from Mr.. Mathews
and notify each member.
An attempt was made to line up
three towns in Minnesota to follow
Crookston in the circuit, but nothing
definite could be settled as the Fergus
Falls representative was unable to
promise anything. .
When the question of dates for VAL
ley City and Cooperstown came up
there was some discussion and it
seemed to be the sense of the meeting
that if the two associations could not
settle the matter between themselves
that they would have to go ahead with
their meetings as dated and do the
best they could.
The dates of the Barnes County
Agricultural Fair have been set for
July 9, 10, II and H.
There was must enthusiasm Of a
patriotic nature at the session and on
motion committee was appointed to
draft resolutions pledging the aid of
the fairs of North Dakota in all pos
sible ways to the government and to
Mr.. Hoover to help carry on the diff
ferent lines necessary in the prosecu-
ton of the war to "a successful con-
clusion.
The following resolution was adopt
ed:
Whereas, our country is now en-
gagged in the most terrible war of its
history and every governmental
agency is being taxed to it's fullest ca
pacity to win the war, to the end that
the democratic principles upon which
our nation was founded, namely Lib
erty and Freedom, be maintained, not
alone for ourselves, but for the liberty
loving people Of the world, and
Whereas, Food production for our
selves and our allies in this great con-
f1ict, is the most vital consideration,
| and
Whereas, the State and County
fairs of North Dakota are recognized
as having the powers and opportuni-
ties of rendering real and necessary
service to the various departments
comprising the war machinery Of our
! government, and .
Whereas, the food department of
| the United States needs the co-opera-
ton of every loyal citizen and every
| available organization to stimulate to
the utmost the maximum production
| Of farm products and also to assist
in educating our people to the neces-
sitv of maximum food conservation.
Therefore, be it resolved that this
association of county fairs. co-operat-
! ing with the State Fair of North Da-
F.; kota, pledge themselves to the full
fillment of the measure above advo-
Gated and to the encouragement of
the continuation and holding Of fairs
