LANDLORDS TO Be
PROTECTED ALSO

A policy Of protecting Washington
landlords as well as war worker
tenants today was announced by the
United States Home Registration
Service, 14l4 H street northwest. as
a result of a ruling by Capt. Julius
Peyser, of the Housing Corporation.
Heretofore the wishes OF the war
workers have been regarded almost
solely as paramount over those of
the landlords, in the matter OF hous-
ing" said Lieut.. W. VI. Conrad. Of
the Home Registration Service, who
is to be in direct charge Of the land
lord-tenant disputes. in the future
the landlord will be actively sup
ported by the housing authorities il
the justice sf his or her case can
be proved.
This decision by Captain Peyser
is a direct outcome of the DISPUTE
over the Salisbury law" continued
Lieutenant Conrad. MANY landlords
claimed that the tenants were I'M
justly favored through the workings
OF the law. The new ruling is in
tended to, and will. do away with
any such impression continuing in
the minds of either war worker zen
ants or landlords"

FOR
RUSSIA AT TABLE

LONDON, Nov. 4.-"This hour OF
victory should be the hour of resur-
rection and regeneration for Russia"
declared Alexander Kerensky, former
premier of Russia, in an exclusive
interview given to the International
News Service today.
Mr.. Kerensky said that Lenine,
TrotzlCy, and other autocrats of the
Bolshevik regime should be treated
along the line of President Wilson's
demands on the Kaiser and the Ger
man autocrats to make Russia safe.
The former Russian premier pleads
for immediate help.
Pleads for Help.
After the conclusion of peace be-
tween the allies and Germany an
archy and the crimes of the usurpers
of power in Russia will continue II
our victorious allies do not apply i'm
mediately to the autocrats of Russia
the same measures they are applying
to the autocrats of Germany" de-
cIared n. Kerensky. lowing to the
noble initiative of America the allies
will have to put forward as one of
the conditions of peace the establish
ment in Germany Of a government
based on the principle of the sover-
eighty of the people. The same I'M
comprising fight must be carried on
against the usurpers of Russia The
whole Bolshevik is a continuous St

they get to their end the more often
and terrible become their orgies and
their actions.

Secretary McAdoo, in a statement
to Simeon D. Tess, chairman Of the
Republican national Congressional
political appeal on railway sched-
ules." He claims that the only appeal
which he has ever had printed on the
railway schedules" was a Liberty
bond appeal to the American people
to buy more Liberty bonds.
His letter to Mr.. Fess follows:
'In a statement just issued by you

TO convey the impression that 1 have

you complain because Democratic
leaders are urging the people to sup
port the President in this serious time
of war by giving him a Democratic
majority in Congress. And yet this
is exactly what Republican leaders
urged the people to do in 1898 when
the Spanish war was already prac-
tically ended. The Republican ap-
peal went so far as to urge the cleo
ton of Republican governors, so that
the State administrations would be

Il believed then. as I believe now.
that in time of war the duty of every

be unhampered in the conduct of the
war, and unity of action be absolute

now, that il was right in time of war
TO support the Washington admins

1T seems to US that this hour of
victory should be the hour of resur-
rection and regeneration for Russia.
1t should be the hour Russians should
no longer be in fear of the fate of
their own people.
The leaders OF the powers allied
with US should estimate calmly and
wisely the role OF each of the allies
in the war and should call their
heavily wou- 5ed and paralyzed COM
rade to the common table of victory.
1T is not yet too late. Russia waits
intensely. The conscience of the
people tell her she has a right to
expect that, as an equal among equals
she should decide her own fate at a
council of the allied powers at the
peace conference.
Russia Pro-AIIy.
Russia continues to be a member
of the anti-German coalition. This
cannot be confined merely to opera
lions Of allied troops on Russian soil.
Normal relations between the allies
and Russia must be re-established
Immediately, and for that purpose a
provisional government was estab-
lished by the national assembly at
Oufa. 1t must be Immediately recog-
nized, and the normal status of all
Russian government institutions in
allied countries must be restored.
Representatives of the Russian pro-
visional government must be invited
on equal terms with all of the allies
TO discuss questions connected with
the settlement Of the war"

twelve kilometers from Sedan and

The Yankees showed remarkable
