the museum management offers lts lit

By means Of the annual vegetable and

right to determine the ways we
shall pursue, but to remove the
reasons for war and put an end
to costly ornaments. l believe we
shall succeed.
would like to have much less
OF resources for destruction. and
more of resources for instruction
In America. l would like to have
less OF toll to maintain arms and
more OF play to hearten the Amerf-
can people. l do not believe the
best Of citizenship comes out of
the constant grind. l would like
an America where there is more
recreation. not for just fortunate
people, but for fortunate Ameri-
can people. in which all may par
ticipate.
Faith in Republic.
like to bring you word that in
some four months of responsibility
1 have come to deeper faith in
this republic of ours. 1 was re-
minded this mofning by the first
piece of mail / received. written
by some one in the west who
thought / would have time to read
and ponder who warned me the
government must put an end to
the aristocracy of wealth or the
nation would be doomed. The
writer called upon me to behead
all who had more than he or 1
have.
l wonder sometimes what wealth
is. Contentment is the richest
possession in the world. In the
office Of the presidency 1 hav
come in contact lately with
every kind of representation in
American life-the great lead,
ers of finance, the influential
leaders Of labor. leaders of vari-
Gus political groups-and l believe
there is not one in any group who
does not want, deep in his heart,
to preserve our America, and is do
ing all that he possibly can to aid
in it's onward march.
Those who are suspected most of
using their places of Importance
for selfish ends are sometimes the
most generous of all in their ten
ders of support and sacrifice for
our nations good. Sometimes you
think your government is not
alert; sometimes you think it is
not concerned with what you be-
neve to be your interest. Let me
tell you, and care not what party
is in power. your government is
always seeking to serve you to the
best of it's ability.
Hopes Of Civilization.
You can not always be told
everything that is going on. l
know there is a school of Ameri-
can advocates who believe that
everything ought to be proclaimed
at every stage of our national life.
That is not a practical plan.
1 can commend your public
servants. They are really trying
to promote the good fortunes of
our common country. Ours is an
Inheritance Of popular government.
There is none precisely like it. l
believe that we have come the
nearest to formulating a dependa-
BILE form of popular government
that mankind has ever devised, and
you Of New England may take that
to your hearts. for American de-
mocracy had it's beginning here.
American democracy is the inspira-
tion of the world, and Americas
attitude is the hope Of modern
civilization.

BY ID. r. kOsPOTH.

GENEVA. Feb. s7.-The Russians
would like to offer Gen. Pershing the
position of high commissioner" on
the Central Relief Committee for
Russian refugees in Europe which
they are at present engaged in or
ganizing with the help Of the league
of nations. the league of Red Cross
societies and the International Red
Cross, SO DR.. Lodygenski. delegate
of the Russian Red Cross for Switz-
erland. told your correspondent.
The number of Russian refugees
in Europe today exceed 100000
men, women and children. They
constitute a nation without a coun-
try in the midst of Europe. a people
without money, without work and
without diplomatic or legal prot-c-
tion. To remedy this impossible
state of affairs which cannot go on
much longer without resulting in a
terrible tragedy or a grave menace.
IL is proposed to create a central
organization with executive au-
thority to deal with the Russian

ing heads:
First: Repatriation of the refugees
among countries willing to receive
them and their emigration to. dis
>tant lands as permanent settlers.
Second: Organization of medical and
other humanitarian relief. Third:
Organization OF work for the refu-
gees. Fourth: Regulation Of their
Diplomatic protection and legal posi-
tion.
The conviction is very strong
among the Russians that some rep
resentative American should be
called to preside over this relief
action for they feel that America
is the only true friend Russia has
left in the world today. And that
is why Gen Pershing's name has
been mentioned in their debates.
One of the most urgent problems
which wiH confront the proposed
committee is to get 10000 Russian
refugees out OF Constantinople where
they are doomed to physical and
moral decadence and to provide fol
them elsewhere: another Is emigra'
ton of the Kuban and Don Cossacks
who are treated by the allies in Tur-
key and Greece not much better than
allied prisoners were in Germany

clared her readiness to admit 10000
Cossacks as settlers.
