THE RUSSIAN PROBLEM.

Anyone seeking suggestions of prop
err courses to pursue in regard to the
Russian people must have felt some ds-
when DR.. George Lawrence
Parker, formerly minister of the Brit
ish- American Congregational church in
Petrograd, finished his lecture at the
Chautauqua here last Tuesday evening.
Dr. Parker succeeded in portraying the
difficulties of the Russian situation and |
made the general criticism that the al |
hes. he d doue D oahiag right, but le did
not make clear what the right course
is. Perhaps his most encouraging state
ment was that Bolshevism is temporal
while the Russian people are perma-
nent. This indicates that in time there
will be people to deal with but no one
can tell when.
Fortunately Americans are not entire
ly dependent upon the lecturer for in
structions regarding Russia. Roland s
Morris, American ambassador to Japan1
and representatives of the French and
English governments have just complet-
ed thorough investigation of condi-
tions in Russia and Ambassador Morris
has advised the American government
to recognize the Omsk government of
Admiral Kolchak, which he believes
will materially aid that brave fighter to
conquer the Bolshevik forces. This
seems reasonable. The brigand forces
of Bolshevists can never be recognized
as a government but Admiral Kolchak
seems to have some conception of what
government is and how it should be
conducted Recognition of his govern
ment would give this nation something
to deal with and make tangible aid for
the Russians possible.
Already these three investigators have
a program to urge upon the allied gov
ernments which embraces plans for the
| operation of the railroads, financial and
economical assistance, the extension of
Red Cross work and union of all anti
Bolshevist forces. Such extensive aid
will 90 far toward making government
in Russia permanent.
That Russia is not to be left the prey
of Germany is indicated by the report
of S. S. Novosseloff, president of the
Russian Tanners association which con
trolls 1000 leather factories in Russia
He finds the English are helping relieve
the terrible sufferings of the Russians
and are sending enormous quantities OF
goods into southern Russia on a credit
basis. He declares that the Russians
look upon the English as the only PEG
pie prepared to help them and of course
this develops very warm regard fol
the English. 49,:
1t would mean much to- this country
in the years to come if Americans were
in Russia working with and for TIL
Russians to develop trade and stabl
government. Recognition of the Kol
chalk government might be the first steI
towards the development of such desir
= able conditions If America adopt
watchful waiting toward Russia i
will find itself pre-empted in the peace

Best Highways in Northern Vermont
(Rutland NeWs.)

Automobile tourists generally report
that the highways in northern Vermont
are superior to those in the southern
part of the state. Why should not this
be expected For a number of years
now the state has had highway COM
missioner living near the Canadian line
and he has been sedulous in looking aft
er the interests of that section of the
state. Even if a governor halls from
Southern Vermont, for some reason or
other the extreme northerner is con-
tinued in office with his policy of favor
itism, conscious or unconscious. 1t is
perfectly human to favor his own sec
ton, with which he is more familiar

In the United States, in the early
days of the last century, a good beaver
hat became kind of heirloom, and
was handed down from father to son.
For some strange reason it was con-
sidered TO be rather frivilous and ex-
travagant to be seen wearing a new
beaver hat, and it was the custom when
a man bought one to leave it out in
stormy weather before wearing it, to
"take the newness Off
