So get busy, ' mmmm mOLE WORLD NOW BAFFLED OVER THE STATUS OF RUSSIA Washington, Feb. 28.?Russia aborbed official and diplomati: conversions here tonight. Cables received at the state deartment and allied embassies indiated the whole world?including the entral powers?is baffled at the sitution now confronting the Bolsheviki overnnaent of Trotsky and Lenine. The uncertainty existing in Petrorad itself was reflected in delayed ables from Ambassador Francis, who eported Trotskv of fVio ?n<i enness of the German advance into )vinsk, the Soviet on record as faoring armed resistance if efforts are nade to capture Petrograd, and the Hied ambassadors preparing to flee f the situation grows dangerous. With Francis, at the head of the rorld's most interesting and pathti problem, are 150 Americans, includng 30 women and children and 45 nefnbers of the embassy staff. Should Petrograd be menaced. Yancis will take as many out of Eus % ia with him as possible?probably 'ia Vladivostok. No concern is felt, however, at the iafety of thfc Americans. The great;st interest is rnaytlfeet in whet will tappen to Ifre German army on the >ne hand and the Bolsheviki govern nent on the other. Military men here look for a strong itand by the Russians when the Gernans near Petrograd. Allied diplonats believe the Trotsky-Lenine regme is tottering. Some who know Russia well saw that following the 'inevitable fall" of the Bolsheviki eaders will come still greater chaos? hen, finally, a strong centralized govsrnment about some military chiefnin, possibly the former Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaiovitch. What may be Germany's real obectives are expected to develop durng the next week. Chancellor Von Rertling has promised, according to eports, to address the reichstag and s expected to combine an answer to President Wilson's last war aims ipeech, with a discussion of the Ruslian situation. That he will claim the German advance is to "help" rather than to harm Russia, is looked for by officials "here. Germany's possible disposition oi Russia, once in her control, has lon^ developed interesting comment frorr "\11 quarters?ever since Lloyd George's declaration that Russia's fu ture is now virtually in her owr hands. Editorial comment by th< newspaper of Premier Sonnino oi Italy, anent this point, has reachec this government and thrown a nev light on Germany's possible objec tives. The newspaper article declar ed that "now that England has lef Russia to her fate," perhaps German] and Austria will see a chance ol peace by giving up Belgium, north orn France, Trieste, Trentino (ar( other territories demanded by Italy] and accept the privilege of expand ing in conquered Russian territory. 1 * uiikimiiu, nowevcr, already hai served notice that she will acknowl edge no peace between Germany ar.< Ukraine (now signed), which fails t< give Poland the right to express hei wishes in the negotiations. Upon developments in Russia dur ing the next few days also is expectet to depend what happens to Rumania now completely surrounded by ene mies. Rumania to-day finds herseli the crux of a fighting circle?at wai with Germany, who.in turn is strik ing at Russia, while the Bolshevik are attacking Ukraine and Ukraine fighting Rumania. Rumanian diplo mats here look to see their countrj forced to an early peace unless un looked for developments swing Rus sia in powerful opposition to the Ger man advance. No official pretends to be able tt solve the weird Russian tangle. A1 agree that greater chaos is ahead be fore order finally can be restored. liff. 15 u/odtu ? ..vnin IT1U3 1 WHEN OTHER THINGS ARE WORTH MORE "In the beauty of the lilies Chris was born across the sea; As He died to make men holy, let u. die to make men free." That is what our soldier-sons, sol dier-brothers, soldier-kinsmen art. themselves doing beyond the seas? pffering life itself to make the world free, to make it free from the menace pf a nation whose only god is Powei ?nd whose success would enthrone brute force as ruler of the world. Terrible as is war, let us now thank 3od that America did not hesitate 10 ccept its bloody challenge rather than lose her soul in a coward's peace. Paradoxical, it is yet true that life s worth living only when men reuize that other things are of incomparably greater worth than life? vhen we esteem life but a little thirg n comparison with honor, duty, 'ighteousness, service; and our times ire nobler because this generation, ried by this acid test, has shown its netal.?The Proirre??ivo p -0 v i aiillCt.
