Economic Aid Will Help
An alternative to an armed inter-
vention is recognized, however, in an
economic Intervention. To prevent
Russia from falling into the hands of
the Germans, whether willing or un-
willing, prompt action by the allies
looking toward rehabilitation is nee
essary, it is urged.
IF neither military nor economic
aid is given, Russia may be drawn
before long into the sphere Of Ger
man influence" the plea declares.
Delay is dangerous. The allies
must find in themselves sufficient po-
litical foresight and energy to give
effect to those remarkable words of
yours: We intend to stand by Rus

WARNING IS ISSUED FOR
 AUTO DRIVERS

J. c. Hayes, general superjntend- ent of roads for this division, has requested that automobile drivers regard the rights of pedestrians, equestrians and teamsters on the roads about Juneau. Many people, taking advantage of the good weath- CT, walk on the roads to Thane, Perseverance and Salmon Creek, some with children and infants in buggies. They are unable to get out of the road quickly and their lives are often endangered. He calls attention to the fact that the roads are as much for those walking as they are for the road hogs"
 J. J. Connors, president of the Juneau Automobile Association, has also issued a request that automo- bile drivers take more care on the roads around Juneau

Commerce, and druggists.
Registration stations are to be
opened not only in chapter cities ana
