PARIS, Feb. 1.-THE Russian So
Wet Government will take "all meas
ures' to bring about an agreement
with the Entente, according to wire
less message sent out from Moscow
on Sunday.
1t complains that the Bolshevist au-
thorities have received no formal in
vitation' to the Princes Islands con-
ference, the only word regarding it
being wireless message containing
press news" The text of the mes
sage which was addressed "To Berlin,
Paris, and everywhere" reads:
I'M. Tchitcherin, the Peoples Com
missary for Foreign Affairs, has
made it known to the College of
Peoples Commissaries tina the had
received wireless message contain
ing press news according to which.
the Entente at Paris had proposed
the different Governments Of Russia
conference at the Princes Islands.
The Peoples Commissary added that
no formal invitation to the Confer
ence had arrived from the Entente.
All measures will be taken to bring
about an agreement with the En-
tente."
President Wilson had nothing to do
with the Transmission of the reply of
M. Longuetto, Bolshevist Foreign
Minister Tchitcherin concerning Boil
shevist participation in the proposed
Princes Islands conference, accord
ing to M. Longuet's newspaper Popu-
laire. M. Longuet had received a
semi-oflicial statement from the Boil
shevist Government concerning the
conference, and the French Govern
ment refused to permit the use of
its wireless in sending a reply.
"The refusal of the French Gov
ernment," says the article, "to allow
US to communicate freely with Russia
compelled us to use another form of
transmission without being compelled
to undergo the censorship which we
combat.
Whose fault is it if a press wire
less is sent from Paris by all wire
less stations including that at Tsarkoe
Selo?"
David r. Francis, American AM
bassador to Russia, who was recently
summoned from London to Paris by
Paul Dustasta, Secretary of the
Peace Conference, and has held con-
ferences here with Secretary of State
Lansing and General Tasker H. Bliss
on Russian problems, probably will
be called upon soon by the Supreme
Council to aid the committee which
will discuss Russian affairs.
ARCHANGEL, Feb. 17-Associat-
ed-Since Tuesday the Bolsheviki
have made no attacks against the al
lies on this front. The Allied air
planes report that there has been no
movement of troops behind the enemy
lines since the Bolshevik withdrawal
south from Sredmakrenga, although
the cessation of attacks has been
coincidental with the Bolshevik offer
to attend the Princes Island Peace
conference Their offensive was
checked by American and allied
troops.

VIVID ! | PICTURE IS PAINTED
LANSING DESCRIBES CONDITIONS
IN THE WAR ZONE.
Declares Danger Of Anarchy Can 81
Avoided Only by Furnishing
,. Food to Germany.

Paris, March 1--we have reached
a crisis In the affairs of the world"
said Secretary of State Robert Lansing
at banquet given by the lnter-Allied
Press club in honor of the American
Peace commissioners.
Mr.. Lansing was emphatic in his
statement that the Allies must feed
Germany and give the Germans oppor-
tunity to sell their products in the
foreign markets if the danger of Boil
shevfsm was to be avoided He painted
a vivid picture Of conditions in the
war zone of France and pointed out
that it was not through pity for Ger
many, but to the Allies own advantage
to SEQ that anarchy was prevented in
the former German empire. Mr.. Lans-
ing said:
y say to you men OF France, and
men of America, and to you, men Of
the Allied Powers, that there is no
time to be lost il we are to save the
world from the despotism Of anarchy,
even as we have savel it from the
despotism of autocracy. We ought to
make, We must make, peace without
delay, and ships laden with food must
enter the harbors of Germany. We
have reached crisis in the affairs of
the world. We must meet it without
passion and without permitting our
judgment to be warped by a natural
and Unavoidable desire for vengeance
on nation which has committed such
atrocities as those the Germans have
committed.
There cannot be any doubt In the
minds of thinking men as to the dan
ger that faces the nations. We are
victorious, and yet victory on the bat
tleheld is not ali. We must use our
victory wisely or we will lose even
more than we have gained. It is not a
spirit Of generosity which demands
peace and which cries out that the Ger
mans must be fed. It is common
sense that demands it and that points
out the perils before us II we do not
listen to the voice of reason

jerusalem Gets Water.

~SSUo0IGbU SGS8 "0ISTs
For the first time since the days Of
Herod, Jerusalem has good supply Of
pure water, the British having provid-
ed 1t in the first year Of their occupa-
ton. The city has relied for its supply
on rain water which flowed into under
ground cisterns at almost every house.
These were found in bad repair and
most Of them needed cleaning. The
water from near Solomon's Pool was
led by the Romans through an aque-
duct, but this was not nearly enough,
and under the Turks it was divided to
the Mosque Of Omar and the city Of
Bethlehem. The British found some
springs and have raised the water
from them to the top of a hill, whence
it flows by gravity through q new pipe
line into the city. Standpipes were
placed on the streets, and the cisterns
are filled on condition that they are
first cleaned and repaired. Water con-
sumption has increased tenfold, chol-
era has been exterminated and the
health Of the city is pronounced Won
derfully good.
