HOLDS PEACE WITH
RUSS WILLNOT END
KAIsER's PROBLEM

London, Feb. assigning Of b Rus
so-German peace will not be the finaA
solution Of the German problem on
her eastern frontier and the final set
Element will come when the peoples
Of Courland, Esthonia, Livonia and Po-
land take matters into their own
hands, according to NJ. Kameneff, one
Of the Bolsheviki delegates to the
Brest-Litovsk negotiations in an in
terview in the Daily News.
M. Kameneff has arrived in London
after three weeks journey from Pet
rograd. He is on his way to Paris as
Bolsheviki plenipotentiary to France.
With the handing over Of the land
and factories to the peasants and
workers, NJ Kameneff said, they had
begun to realize as they could not un-
der the old regime, that a German in
vasion Of Russia would injure their
vital interests. Consequently the con-
seriousness of the necessity Of defend
ing the country was growing among
the Russians
NJ Kameneff said he was convinced
the Germans would be unable to i'm
port food from the Ukraine because
the people there would prevent the
rada from fulfilling the promise given
Germany. The German occupation of
Petrograd, NJ. Kameneff added, would
not be enough to restore the mon
archy. Any attempt at restoration
would entail fighting in every town
and village for the peasants and work
ers were well aware that a restora-
ton would involve the loss of their
land and political rights.

HARD To Get JURY
I FOR MUNDAY CASE
~P0wer Of the Press" Is Evidenced n
One Man After Another Is Excus.
ed for Having an Opinion.

Morris, ILL.,, Feb. 26-The power of
the press" to affect public opinion was
recognized today in the second trial
of Charles B. Munday. With special
panel of 60 talesmen, the attorneys for
the defense quickly cleared the slate
of four hold-overs from the original
panel of So summoned for the opening
of the case. To speed up the trial,
Judge Mazzini Slusser Of DuPaxe
county swore the new panel enmasse.
How many Of you men heard the
former trial Of Mr.. Munday or were in
any way connected with it ?" asked the
court.
Twenty-eight men rose to their feet.
How many Of you have formed such
opinions as would prevent you from
giving this defendant a fair trial?" he
asked
Twenty-Five men raised their hands
and were excused.
Then William Bartholomew Of the
Munday counsel took up the examina-
ton of individual jurors. Each man
was asked as to what papers he read
and whether reading the newspapers
had caused him to form an opinion
which would affect his action as q
Juror.
When the morning session recessed
IL men out of the new panel had been
examined and each had been <..cused
for prejudice formed from newspaper
stories. The indications were, that the
special panel would not supply sin
gle Juror.
