THE GERMANS AND RUSSIA

lAA8F~
 Ambassador Francis statement on the enormous resources of Russia and the danger that those re- sources will form the basis of revived German dom- fnation in Europe is worthy of very serious attehtlo in America.
 The Germans were wrong in their conclusions about the psychology of every nation they had tc deaf with in the war except the Russians Ihey knew Russia as German professor knows his DOCKS TheD knew Russia through and through. Th1er spiH' and agents made Russian plans go awry time aiteI t,nc.. It German money that sent Lenlne from Switzerland back to Russia, and the Germans Knew what Lenine would do. By long association with Russians in business affairs the Germans knew the Russian mind in peace well as they knew It ID war The people of the United States were aston ished when they learned the etxent to which the Germans had nterpenetrated this country with thelr industries. In many ways they actually controlled what the average American supposed was purely American activity in business. They were much more firmly and intimately established in Russia, and as the Ambassador points out, they will be again Ii left, entirely their own devices. They will en- deavor organize Russian business so that control will be had and toll taken by Germany in every line of industry They will try to worm their way into the Government itself
 Now, nobody will object if Germany trades with Russia fairly in the way of trade and other way To keep Germany from going in the German wa! it will be necessary for other nations to give Rus sia the helping hand needed lift the country out of it's present abasement Russia needs, first of all
 sanes 0ossr4iment and fo that end the Allied Gov ernments are contributing but to develop Russia's tresoprces many things will be necessary Money, machinery, railroads, seed. manufactured ar tices must be provided. Before Very long, may hope, Russia will be working out plans for modern school system Russia will certainly be looking soon for markets for her surplus foods and materials
 The world must not let any of these Russian needs become the means by which the old game of German misrepresentation may be played

 When a man hates another man he can't conceal his hatred. But the more a woman hates another woman the sweeter is the smile when she meets the other woman.
 As long as a man has twelve or thirteen hairs that he can brush across the top of his dome he thinks that it is up to him to laugh at other men who are bald-headed.
