Is An Answer to Wilson's Mes
sage to Russia.
WILL MAKE
STATEMENT TO PEOPLE
wal Tell Country ALI About
Proposal of Japan to Inter-
vene In Siberia-Entente
Favors Prompt Action.
(sy international News ssrvice.)

(By international News Service.)
London, March 16.--Silence mark
led the reading of President Wilson's
message Of sympathy to the Russian
nation at the pan-soviet congress, at
Moscow, except when the Japanese
Ssftuation was mentioned, dispatches
received here from Petrograd say.
AT mention OF the Japanese situation
there were murmurs audible through
1.-THE hall in which the congress met.
IIThnediately after the message was
read, however, a resolution was adj
opted expressing appreciation. But
lit was addressed more to the toilers
| of America than to President Will
son. The resolution also expressed
confidence that the time was not far
| distant when the workers would
overthrow capitalism and by estab
Fishing 4 socialistic society, insure
the workers of the world just and
lasting peace.
Wilson To Make Statement.
Washington, March 16-Administ
|tration circles today let it be known
THAT President Wilson will shortly is
|sue a statement that will define the
latitude OF the United States toward
Russia, and toward the plans of the
|entente powers to have Japan send
IAN expedition into Siberia, No details
{were furnished as to when the an
|nouncement will be made or the
lform that it will take. It is known,
|however, that the president has felt
for several weeks that the people OF
THE United states were entitled to
know the exact position which this
government has taken toward the
Japanese-Chinese militar yexpedition
Unto Siberia.
Would Spare Russia.
He had planned TO appear before
congress and address joint session
on the entire Russian problem, and
at that time to make it plain that
the United States would insist at all
times that the territorial integrity
OF Russia be maintained. The events
that have TRANSFERRED, following the
action OF Germany in enforcing ruin
Gus peace terms on Russia and Rou-
mania have somewhat changed the
situation. But the president still is
determined, officials close TO him as
scrt, that there shall be no exploita-
ton Of defeated Russia for the bene-
fit of any other nation
Entente Favor Action.
1t is believed that the action Of
the president win precede any action
Of Japan in Siberia. The debate in
the British house OF commons alrea-
dy has shown that Great Britain be
lieves that Japan must intervene to
save Russia from Germany. France
is unaEterably committed to such a
plan Toxic has been in communi-
cation with Washington London and
Paris, while there has been a general
interchange OF views between all Of
the nations affected on the general
subject. The result is believed to be
that President Wilson now is in po-
sition TO break silence and to outline
Americas position and desires in the
matter,

Aidlna the Labor suppIY.

The departments of agriculture and
labor through representatives of the
various states cooperating with the
agricultural colleges and other agen-
cies are doing the following things to
aid the farm labor supply, according
to a recent statement Of Secretary
Houston: (a) Making a survey of the
farm-labor situation in each COM
munity with view to discovering
possible surpluses of labor in order to
be ready to assist In furnishing labor
wherever it is needed; (b) assisting
again in shifting labor from COM
munity to community and from state
to state, as in past years; (c) pro-
noting fuller cooperation among
farmers in the same community; (d)
making available. so far as possible,
high school boys in rural districts who
have had experience in farming and
who are not normally regularly or
fully employed in farming operations; !;
(e) making every effort to see that
there is no obstacle in the way of the
production of larger supply of farm
machinery and its fuller use as
supplement to hand labor.

Make Farming a Business.

A young man who is now starting to
farm needs to know his business.
Through farm management demon
strations the county agent can show
him his labor income, that is, what
he had left of his receipts after paying
expenses and allowing for interest on
the investment and can show him
how his labor income compares with
those of the most successful farmers
In that community. The showing will
help him make study of his farm
business and to determine upon
changes that should be made TO make

TO the FARMER.
Ascertain If Needed.
Before training the volunteers some
method should be devised for ascer-
tanning whether there is a demand for
the woman workers in the kind Of
work they are preparing to undertake.
This information could be obtained
from the state agricultural college and
the state farm help specialist en-
ployed by this department. Great
care should be exercised not to pre-
pare women to go on farms before
there is an actual demand for their
labor.
After completing the training, the
women should not be sent into the
localities where they are to work until
some one has preceded them to make
arrangements for their housing and
to determine the basis of wages, etc.
In most instances the living quarters
would consist of camping outfit, as
such quarters as they might obtain in
the community would be the least de-
sirable of those in the community.
Generally it would be desirable to have
one person in the group who would do
no farm work, but would act as gen.
eral chaperon and matron and would
see to the domestic phases Of their
living and welfare.
