|KERENSKY ALWAYS
LOYAL. TO ALLIES
Has Broken Badly Since He
Was Forced to Flee
From Russia.
BY LEOPOLD BLOND.

Special Correspondence Of The Even
Ing Star and Chicago Daily News.
PARIS, France, August ALEX
andre Feodorovitch Kerensly is not the
kerensky of the period of his great
ness. Since that day in November,
1917, when he was forced to flee in an
automobile/fr from the winter garden
Of Petrosrad after the coup d'etat of
Lenin and Trotsky, he has undergone
great hardships. He passed months
I Russia, hidden in a house in Petro-
-ad, till the time he left his native
nd to make his sensational appear
rec in London.
Claude Onet, correspondent OF LIE
Petit Partisan, who was in Petrograd
throughout the revolution and knew
kerensky, was received by him dur
ing the latter's visit to Paris; -.
writes Onet, "and who have seen him
SO often during the period of his pow.
or, had difficulty i'll recognizing him."
His Appearance Changed.
Dressed as a civilian Kerensky seems
shorter. Moreover, he has changed
longer wears it brushed back; he
parts it in the middle Formerly he
was fair. now his hair is dark brown
and almost entirely covers his fore
head.
Kerensky says very little. When he
arrived in Paris he declared he had
little to add to his public statements
made in London, namely, that Russia
Is incapable of raising itself alone and
that it fmplored the Intervention OF
the allies; also that this Intervention
must be an armed intervention, that
have effect in this unfortunate coun-
try.
Kerensky made no mention of Japan,
but it is thought here that he is
aware that, in requesting the inter-
vention of the allies in Russia, only
Japan can act. And the conclusion is
that he considers Japan's Intervention
necessary.
The general opinion is that Keren-
shy's role is ended.
Looks Pale and Tired.
"a small man, pale and tired look
ing" says La Liberte, "such is the ex-
dictator of the ex-greatest nation in
