ITALIANS GREET AMERICAN AID AS
 GIFT FROM GOD
Appearance of Red Cross Workers Instills Courage
 and Renewed Hope.

Headquarters Italian Army, May IS. Correspondence of The Associated Press. )-Arrival of relief from Amer ica through the Red Cross agents be hind the Italian front along the Piave river, which section is filled with re- fugees from the regions invaded by Teutonic troops, is greeted with evi- dences of fervent gratitude and jubila- tion. This is true not only because of the actual gifts in money food and clothing but because it signifies to the Italians the fact that America is standing behind them in their long conflict with the Austrian invaders.
 The aged priest alt Castello-di-God- ega was so overcome by the unexpect- ed donations from America that her through up his arms, kelt in prayer and exclaimed, "it is a gift direct from heaven"
 Wherever the Red Cross workers have distributed their relief, the may- or and local committee directed the succord families of that community to write to the soldiers at the front and tell them what America has done.
 The work of the Americans was extolled and the people were told that the United States was thus cOUperat- ing in close and practical accord with Italy.
 In some cases huge posters have ap- peared on the town walls with a pro- clamation by the mayor announcing what America was doing.
 The misery which prevails among the refugees in the provinces of Ire viso Venatia and Padua is most dis tressing. Stopping at the little town of Riest, in the tour of this section, there was chance to see one of these communities of refugees in all it's misery. It is a strange community, which was migrated as whole from it's former home at Vidor, now held by the enemy, to it's present hlabi- tation of Riesi. Vidor is the village on the east bank of the Piave which was occupied by General von Below and his German troops, and when they came these townspeople, with only the clothes on their backs and a few household belongings, fled across the, Piave ann settled down here. Most of the refugees have scat tered all over Italy. but this is one of the few towns that has held to- gether in it's flight.
 The parish priest led the way as the Red Cross workers went on a round of inspection to see just how these people were living. The mayor and the parish priest are usually consult ed on this work. the latter because he is in touch with all the troubles. Most of the people are religious, but even those who are not get religious when they are in trouble, and every one is in trouble here. They all knew him and he made his way thru crowds of ragged children and the choked alleys of what would have been a concentration camp if it had been organized. but being unongan- ized was only vast hive of refugees in their misery.
 In one room about fifteen feet square 25 people were sleeping on straw strewn over the earthen floor. The place was stuffed with soiled gar ments. the pitiful remnants of what these occupants possessed. and reek- ed with vileness. Across the court

 Says U. $. On RatiOns
 Discussing the economic situation created by Americas entrance into the War von Capelle pointed out that the Ilnitsd States was the most important source { of ;'ssupplies flor 1sthe entente nations but he added:
 Owing to the tremendous armam- ent program of President Wilson. such economic difficulties have devel. oped that America, the land fex- port, must now begin to ration her self instead. it can be said that the economic difficulties of our enemies

CAUSES OF THE RUSSIAN DEBACLE

etrograd.-Causes of the Russian debacle against the Germans and Aus trians are set forth in remarkab ble report by Colonel Kolofkotf to the council of workmen's and soldiers de- puties. The responsibility is placed on on the activity of ex-policemen, gen d'armes and spies of Emperor Nicholas. who, after being deprived of their live lihood, were compulsorily sent to the front.
 Until the end of June, says Colonel Kolofkoff, the soldiers on the west front were in excellent fighting trim. Technically and as regards supplies the army was beyond criticism. There vas an admirably completed ably have led to the reconquest of Visna. But the police, gendarmes and spies of the autocracy started an anti patriotic cnun- ter revolutionary campaign, the frs design of which was the dissolution ot the army. Large numbers of regi- mental company committees started a propaganda against war, melting sol ders against officers, aga nst the pro- visional governments com nnissi sionaries, and even invited violence Later the, secretly distilled vodka on the ad vance and dosed soldiers herewith.

FRIENDS

It's hard to know who are your friends so many menlhave selfish minds. I take a comrade to my heart, and feed him pie and damson tart, and give him love that's pure and deep, and let him in my woodshed to sleep. Then he re- quests, in dulcet tones, that l shall lend him twenty bones. ''Id gladly lend you all you need" I said in answer, ''but indeed, H. c. of L.. has stripped me bare-I haven't twenty bucks to spare. If fifty cents will help you out, you're welcome to that much, old scout; but I've a wife and nineteen kids, who all are needing shoes and lids, and it's as much as 1 can do to dig up for that loving crew" And then my friend comes round no more, to hang his bonnet on the floor, and talk with me of vital things, of sealing wax and cats and kings. Instead, he roasts me through the town, and tries to give me punk renoun, as being one who is too tight to help a comrade in a plight. This sort of thing one gets from friends, as through this woozy world he wends.-Walt Mason.

INDIANS EMPLOY WHITE
 MAN TO CARVE T0TEIS

Indian totems, for centuries carved in wood, are now being carved in mar ble by the white man and modern tools, says Juneau newspaper.
 What is said to be the most perfect specimen of the Indian totem in Alaska has been carved from solid block of Alaska marble by James Hogan of Juneau, and plans are being made to erect the pole in cemetery at Kluk- wan.
 The totem represents the Frog clan of the Chilkat tribe of Indians, and five names of members of the tribe have been carved in the stone by Hogan.
 The totem was carved from solid piece of marble weighing 1900 pounds, and measuring 6x3 feet by 13 feet.
 The pole is painted a vivid green with white eyes and yellow spots. It represents the head of a large frog just emerging from the top of an old stump.
 Natives of the Frog clan are pre- par:ng to give great potlach at the time of the erection of the stone pole, and it has been estimated that they will spend something like s4,0O0 on the totem and the festivities to ac company the dedication in the Kluk- wan cemetery.

nied that the active Socialists now hamper the will of tho real majority of the Russian people are of the same mind. And further, one cannot doubt the fact that 0 big percentage of the active Socialists in the United States by their acts, showed tho same leaning when they have tried to hamper snd oppose the present administration in every move.
 Most people have thought that Socialism, real Socialism, in the abstract was not such bad thing. but developments since this war started would firmly convince a person that the Socialists, or the people who are the mouthpieces of the active Socialists, are firmly bound in some mysterious way to the medieval, autocratic rule of the class that insist on spelling culture with "k. ."-Anchorage Democrat.
