who is a Russian and a cousin of the late
Russian emperor, came here at the out
break Of the war and now is about TO go

We acted wrongly; we are sorry
The Grand Duchess said she had no
news from her daughter, the former crown
princess since September, except through
a letter from her eldest daughter, the
Queen of Denmark, saying both of them
were well. She made an appeal for help
for the country of her birth, saying:
eff the Allies abandon Russia, Russia
is lost. The Allies do not seem to under
stand the situation clearly. About rs
per cent of the Russians have respect
for only two things, God and the Gar.

1t will take the population fifty years
