U. S. NOTE TO SoV|ETS

PEN0ENcE AND PLACE IN LIFE

Washington. March Ion the eve
Of the gathering at Moscow OF the
Russian congress Of sovicts. which 10
to pass judgment on the German.made
peace accepted by the Bolsheviki at
Brest-Litovsk. President Wilson sent a
message Of sympathy to the Russian
people through the congress. with
pledge that the United States Will
avail itself Of every opportunity to
aid them in driving out autocracy and
restoring Russia to her place In the
world with complete sovereignty and
independence.
The United States now recognizes
NO government in Russia, but the Pres
ident cabled his message to the Amer
lean consul at Moscow for delivery to
the congress, which is made up of SOL
diers' and workmen's representatives
and speaks for at least considerable
part of the Russian people.
Thus, in his first formal word to
Russia since the revolution.torn coun'
try, under the leadership Of the Boil
sh ,viki deserted the allied cause. the
United States to disregard the hard
terms upon which the German and
Austrian war lords have promised
peace to the Russians. and to demand
an accounting upon q very different
basis when victory at last shall be
achieved by America and the allies.
Following is the message:
May l not take advantage Of the
meeting of the congress Of the Soviets
to express the sincere sympathy which
the people of the United States feel
for the Russian people at this mo-
ment. when the German power has
been thrust in to interrupt and turn
back the whole struggle for freedom
and substitute the wishes of Germany
for the purpose Of the people Of Rus
STA. Although the government OF the
United States is, unhappily. not now
in q position to render the direct and
effective aid it would wish to render.
l beg to assure the people Of Russia
through the congress that It will avail
itself Of every opportunity to secure
for Russia once more complete SOW
ereignty and Independence in her own
affairs and full restoration to her
great role in the life Of Europe and
the modern world. The whole heart
Of the people Of the United States Is
with the people Of Russia in the At
tempt to free themselves forever from
autocratic government and become
the masters Of their own life.
WOODROW WILSON,"
The President does not urge the
soviets to reject the peace treaty.
though the delivery Of his message at
this time may be Interpreted as sug-
costing such a course.
Coming at the time 1t does. the Pres.
ident's message may serve to lessen
misgivings in Russia over the pro-
posed Intervention by Japan in 81.

There are three ways to reduce:
by eating -ess; by eating only nom

to appear thinner than you are. Few
stout women understand this last

to wear the cCrsets designed for stout
figures styles that give gentle
curve 10 the hips. that hold in the alb
d0men. and that do not push up the
bust. This question Of corsets Is a
very important point.
Then there's the questions or un-
derclOthes-a single, limp silk petit
coat is best, tailored underclothes
without fullness. and an uuboned
brassiere. The dresses should be dark
in colOr-blaC satin, dark blue serge
or tricOtine, dark gray mixtures, blue
or gray linens in the summer, and
such shades. Light cOlOrs increase
the apparent size. Plain waists. full
enough over the bust % hang nicely.
and tailored suits, are ideal. hats
should be small and, prefera bly,.
trimmed TO give a long line-a quill
or feather fancy standing above the
hat. for instance. TOques are splendid
for the stout woman. The hair should
be simply dressed. with a knot rather
