" Here Is What Pershing Expects of Draft Army Paris, Aug. 7.Major General rershing, commander of the American expedition in France, told the Asso ciated Press today what he expected of America's conscripted army. The general said: "Our men must be in good physi cal condition, keeping their morals clean and thereby capable of meet ing the trying conditions of modern warfare. The men must learn to obey orders promptly, implicitly and will ing, but not necessarly automatically. "I object to the word 'automatic .because we do not want a machine made organization, but an army of thinking men. Men with individual ity, men fully capable and ready to assume command of units, should their officers be killed or incapacitated, as sometimes happens in trench war fare. . "The men must be made to realize that war is sot sport or play, but serious work demanding the utmost energy and attention to insure suc cess.7' ;.-.

Russia is Comparatively Quiet Now, Says Elihu Root Chicago, Aug. 7. Elihu Root, who, with other members of the American mission to Russia, which has com pleted its work, was in Chicago to- tlay, said that, as a matter of fact, there is scarcely more disorder in Russia than there is in the United States. "Certain disturbances are inevitable in a change of government so radical as that of Russia," said, Mr. Root, "and cable dispatches deal largely with these disturbances. Hence the public has gained an impression that there is little going on in Russia ex cept demonstration. As a matter of fact, if reports on American affairs disseminated in Russia concentrated on our own little disturbances race riots, the Industrial Workers of the World and the like Russians would have about the same picture of us that we now have of them. "I have faith in the new Russian ministry and in the Russian future as an important element in the aims of the allies. Russian women are doing a wonderful work in shaming the men into fighting and, where necessary, I hope American women will follow their example." .
