TRACTORS AT WORK III 81 ally
Modern Machinery Doing It's r IT In
Making the Plaina Of Apuli.l
Productive.

Farm tractors, jolting over the
plains OF Apulia, in southern Italy,
,have awakened the inhabitants Of
that district as unceremoniously as
the elephants Of Pyrrhus awakened
them % centuries ago. And the
tractors signalize an invasion which
is not likely to be any tHch TEN
porary matter as was the visit of the
king Of Epirus and his army. These
machines are making Apulia over
from a frontier grazing region, de-
voted by unprogressiye landinlders
to the casual raising Of Aocks, into
what an Italian writer describes as
a yeritable Canadian wheat eirden.
They are helping TO solve the Euro
pean food problem. But more than
that, they are causing a social re-
generation, or, rather, the govern
ment is doing SO, by urging the land
holders to recognize the modern CO.
operative order Of things and to do
their share in rehabilitating the
world. The government, lg this
program, is clearly doing much the
%ame thing that the ancient Roman
republic, in the praetorship Of Lu-
cius Postumius, did, when it COM
PEELED the Apulian shepherds to de-
sist from robbery and to pay homage
to the law.

HIGH SCHOOLS
HEAR STORY Of
WAGNER RINGER

Alpheus Ringer, wagoncr in the
ooth Heavy Artillery Brigade, who
recently returned to America from
active service overseas, was a guest
at chapel at Ardmore High School
this morning and told in a simple,
impressive manner his experiences
from the time he left Ardmorc
many months ago until his return.
He described in detail his trip from
San Diego, Cal, to France, going
via Panama Canal, telling how it
all OF one day to make the trip,
going through five locks, thence to
Camp Merritt, n. j.. for one week,
and finally sailing for France, going
first to Liverpool, remaining a week
in England, and then crossing the
English channel. He said it took
all night to make the trip across the
channel, which at that time was cx-
ccedingly dangerous, as it was then
that the enemy was successfully car
rying on his unrestricted submarine
warfare.
After training in France they
were finally ordered to the front.
This, Wagner Ringer stated was
the most eventiul thing that had
happened in their lives, up to that
time. He told OF the work done in
the St. Mihiel sector, then on into
the Argonne Forest and Nerdun.
Later how they went into the Grand
Pre- gap. lie explained how it some
times happened that the American
infantry ran into their own barragc,
III the enemy resistance was broken,
the infantry rushes on, many times
past their objective, and with the
artillery firing on stated times It
does not lift until the ordered time.
This does not happen often, but
that is how it does happen
lie described the sound of the
barrage, saying that there were
thousands of guns on this particu-
lar front and how, instead of shoot
ing one here and there, all OF them
were fired at the same time, be- |
ginning at o'clock and lasting |
until the hour for the infantry TO
go over the top which is very Of
ten at 5 o'clock, the barrage lasting .
four hours, a continuous roar, stu
pendous in its intensity and magni-
tude.
No mention OF his hardships or
OF his individual service was touched
upon in Wagner Ringers talk, bu:
as Superintendent Richards stated,
in presenting him, that everyone
knows that the boys who went
through those last several weeks OF
fighting saw service and in all the
ways that word implies

RAYMOND ROBINS
HOLDS KERENSKY
WAS NOT UPHELD
Continued from page y.

American Government for an addi-
tion,I million dollar, in October,
i0lz and a million dollars n month
ior threc months to carry on nro-
n,oond, in fine interior Of Russia.
Thc American Government was
warned he said That unless thi,
monev WAS forthcominq the boil
shoy;l.i would oain control and a
senar,te oe,ca Ietveer Russia and
Germany wa. likely Instead of
receiyino aonroyal Of the project
Mr. Robins testified the govern
ment cablcd that representative
Of the committee ON public jnfor-
nation would he sent TO Russia TO
study the situation When the
committees reprc,entatj,e arrived
the bolyheyiki had bcen in power
for two weeks
There we're onlv two groups in
Russia, Mr.. Robins said, the soviet
and the rcactionaries. and lack OF
sympathv on the part OF the allies
for the problcms of the Kcrcnsky
government made it impossible for
that regime to gain the support OF
the soyiets.
"Kcrensky was sincere friend of
the allied cause" declared the wit
ness. "and would have, worked ont
a liberal socialist program"
Many of the earlier leaders OF the
revolution preferred to cooperate
with the Germans rather than with
the soyiets, he added, and as a re-
suit the bolsheyiki refused any
connection with these men when
they came into power.
Mr.. Robins said that he saw ear
" during the bolsheyist revolution
that the reyolutionists were bound
to become the real power in Rus
Sia, because they had the masses OF
the Russian people behind them,
although Germans and possibly
certain dishonest element were for
the moment in control. He said
he went to see Trotzky soon after
the latter came into power, and told
him that the Red Cross desired to
to serve the Russian peo-
pie without injuring the allied
cause
Il told Grotzky," the witness
continued, chat / would deal with
whoever happened to be in power.
After that, Trotzky let us send a
train Of supplies to Rumania that
got through on time to Jassy under
ooIshevist protection. Trotzky was
perfectly frank in saying that he
believed in an international reyolu-
lion which eventually would reach
America, but he realized that Amer
ca at that time was the one agency
through which the economic stu
ltlon in Russia could be improved.
He was not friendly to America, but
thought that America would be
friendly to the bolsheyit govern
nent because its ideas were dia-
netrlcally opposed to the IDEAS OF
he German junkers and militar-
atS.
At that time the witness said, the |
IcrmanS were trying by every
means to obtain raw materials !
