Paris, March 12. Former Grand Duke Alexander Michaeiovitch, who arrived ih Paris recently from the Crimea, told the Associated Press today that tiniest armed allied in tervention in Russia began at once thi situation in Russia would be come so hopelessly desperate that it would take years to restore a semblance of order in eastern Eu rope. The former grand duke, who is a. brother-in-law of the former emperor, continued: ' "I do not ask the allies to fight for-us. We merely ask them tos keep order in the territories wrest ed from bolshcmism by the govern ments already fighting the soviet. Disappointed in Paris. "I came here in January in an tttempt to help my country as a pri vate citizen. 1 thought I would find justice and sympathy at the peace conference, but I have been disap pointed, as I found visible only per sonal intrigue, party politics and na tional egotism. , "I requested President Wilson to receive me, but he replied through his secretary that he was too busy with peace conference matters. What natter can be more moment ous to the" peace conference than the Russian problem? I asked to be allowed to go to England, but was refused a passport, but they received Kercnsky. I dare not request per mission .to visit America, not wish ing to invite a. rebuff. ' Proposal Mistake. Referring to the proposed confer tnce on the Princes islands, the grand duke said that the proposal was a mistake, all the bolsheviki are claiming that the allied govern ments have recognized them be cause tliev feared the bolsheviki. "On January 25," the grand duke continued, "seven davs after the Princes islands proposal, the bol iheviki led My two brothers and two cousins from the "fortress of St. Peter and St. Paul and shot them without trial, i hey never would have dared to do this un less they had been sure of the moral- support afforded by the semi recognition by the peace conference Blackmail Allies. "Had President Wilson come out strongly and surely with a repudia tion of and nonrecognition of the bolsheviki it would have encouraged the governments warring against them. Bolshevism will be the devil in the future leaKne of nations. "It is my opinion' that the Spar- , tacan movement is kept going onii as a means of- blackmail agains the allies. When Germany has used the Spartacans to the utmost to blackmail the entente into send ing food and granting merciful con ditions of peace spartacism will disappear." Fxptnslre. Peter Finley Dunna said the other day: "It's folly to say that two can't live cheap as one two can live far, far cheap er than one. ' " 'Did you. lend your wife to the shore Inst August?" I asked a married man. " 'No,' he answered. 'I can't afford it; It eost too much.' " 'But,' I said, "your wife's tastes are simple. .Surely she could sojourn at the shore without spending any great amount.' " I know that, all rlfrht," said he, 'but August of last year while she was at the shore I spent more than $200 a week." " Chicago News. ( VW 7 .

NOURSE. Staff Correspondent Universal Service. Washington, March 12. "The only thing needed to arouse the American people against the league of nations is to tell them exactly what it means to American rights. When they learn the truth about it they say, 'We want noth ing to do with it.' " ' ' This was the comment of Senator Borah of Idaho upon his return from a speaking tour against the league of nations proposal. His conviction on the attitude of the people is based not only on the sentiments of those who attended his meetings, but upon the enormous amount of correspondence which accumulated in his office during hi3 absence. It was stated that one day's mailOi contained no less than 3,000 letters ilT BEAT "TIZ" WHEN FEET HURT "Tiz" for tore, tired, puffed up, aching, calloused feet or corns.

TTT TTT) on tne subject of the league, of which a very small number endorsed the proposal. Aranged Speaking Tour. Beginning with a speech Friday night at Troy, N. Y.- and one at Rochester the following Sunday night, Senator Borah will start out on another tour which will take him into the heart of the west and in all probability to the Pacific coast. He will go from Rochester to Chiaa go tb arrange a meeting which will he held probably on the nicht of March 18 or 19. Preliminary plans for the campaign are being perfect ed in Chicago. Senator Borah was reticept about his meetings, because he felt they should speak for themselves. Ev erywhere he has ?one, however, he encountered a strong American sen timent which, in his opinion, can not. be overcome by league advo cates. 'He found also, as he said, a very, profound lack of understand ing upon the part of the people as to what the league really meant A mere statement that the league plan would transfer sovereignty over American interests to the hands 'of European diplomats has sufficed in most instances, he said, to turn the audiences against any wish for such a league. "I am very well satisfied with the results of the trip," said Sena tor Borah. "I found that the peo ple, as a .rule, had been misled as to the pl?ns and purposes of the league auPknew nothing at all about it; they had a visionary idea that it meant merely the stoppage of all war. They are beginning to find out something about it. By that I do not mean that my speeches are having any such wonderful effect, but -all over the country the peo ple are beginning to understand just what is proposed by the league and they are declaring themselves against it. Let People Decide. ' After Senator Borah returns from his western speaking tour he intends to devote himself to the preparation of a bill to provide for the sutmire- sion of the league plan to a vote of the people. 'He has advocated in all of his speeches on the subject that the proposal should not be put into effect untrr after it has been sub mitted to a nlebescite The bill to be dratted by hint is to provide for this so that if it should appear probable that the league con stitution would be ratified by tne senate a vote by the people can be taken before it becomes eitective. The tentative dan for such a ref erendum as worked out by Senator Borah is for a national. vote on the question with the aid of the election machinery of each state. The ques tion would be directly submitted in some such form as this: "Do you favor the United States becoming a member of the league of nations?" To this the voter would be required to mark his ballot "yes or no." Wilson for Changes. The belief that President Wilson will agree to a number of radical changes in the league constitution in order to meet the objection of the leading opponents in this country is becoming very strong among sena tors who signed the round robin pledging themselves to vote against it. No definite word from Paris on (his phase of the question his been Mitchell Six- Becomes More Popular Each year Models of the open and closed types of the Mitchell Six are re ceiving much attention and com ment at the automobile show this weelc The standardized .style of body of the Mitchell Six car, design ed in the last few years, holds the satisfaction of the car owner for its roomy space and comfort in driving. In appearance the Mitchell Six speaks for itself, and its quality is attested by the fact that for years it has been pre-eminently popular with farmers and is now mpre popu lar than ever. Going Into. Detail. Almost by design, it .seemed, a health officer placed a card on an East End home, directly under the house number, relates Youngstown Telegram. 1 Two youngsters on their way home from school, stopped to try to read the card. "What does it say?" asked one. After a close scrutiny the other replied: It says '3487 measles.'" ''My sakes!" said tne first speaker, "I knew you had to have a card on tne house, but I didn't know you had to teli how many measles'there was in tiu fjuailx.' rr ; Wyoming to Be 'First State to Voje on the World League Issue Cheyenne, Wyo., March 12. (Special.) Wyoming will be the first sovereign state to hold a referendum on the proposal for a league of nations if present plans mature. The state will hold a special election in April to vote on the issuance of $3, 000,000 in highway bonds- and it is planned to have a separate ballot printed for electors at that time with which, they can express their sentiments r-egarding the formation of a league of nations. Governor Carey is expected home from the east about April 10, and. unless he vetoes the idea Wyoming will be the first state to vote on the formation of a league of nations. i received, but it is generally believed that when the league plan comes back to the United States, it will dif fer very materially from that which the president submitted to the peace conference. . t v Senators have been insistent that the league constitution should con tain a reservation prctectingthe Monroe doctrine against interfer ence by foreign powers are of 'the opinion that " the incorporation of such an amendment bill will not be sufficient to remove objections against the entrance of the United States into such an organization. These objections they regard as fundamental. The gradual change of opinion upon the part of those who -were strong in their advocacy of the president's plan at the time of its submission is reflected in newspaper comment since the president sailed for FranceA senator who has made a compilation of press comments on the question announced today that in the west and on the Pacific coast there has been a very per ceptible change of sentiment; news papers which at first saw Wthing but good in the plan and criticized sharply those who opposed it are now, according to this senator, openly advocating amendment of the league constitution to protect American rights. Enemy Renews Bombardment on D vina Front; U. S. Troops Evacuate Vil lage of Kadish. Archangel, March . . j The bol sheviki took advantage Friday of the first clear day with the ther mometer above the freezing point by attempting to bomb the Ameri can positions on the Vaga from an airplane. The machine was the first one observed to bear the new red army identification mark, a six pointed red star. The bombs fell withput causing any damage. Since the beginning of the cam paign last summer there has been much confusion on both sides of the lines because the bolshevik air planes bore the old Russian mark ing, a red, white and blue circle. This was so similar to the marking on the allied planes that it was hard ly possible to distinguish the one from the other. The general situation on the Vaga front was unchanged today. Late yesterday the enemy .renewed his bombardment on the Dvina. On the railroad front the bol sheviki yesterday afternoon twice began shelling, but were speedily silenced by the allied guns. The village of Kadish, which has changed hands six or seven times, is again in the hands of the bol sheviki. . The Americans found it useless 1o hold the almost destroyed village and withdrew to their old po sitions at the bridge across the Emtsa river. , i Hindenburg Planning Campaign. Coblenz, March 9. Field Marshal von Hindenburgis planning to use volunteer units in a drive against the bolsheviki, with Libau as the base of his operations, it is indicated by information which lias reached American intelligence officers. According to the American ex perts, who in the line of their duty are keeping in touch with the prog ress of the readjustment of the enemy's forces, German great head quarters seems to be following a policy of secrecy as regards the eastern front troop question. This is believed to be due to the fact that the bolsheviki now have a normal military organization and so will be able to utilize any information they migfit obtain concerning their enemy. Apparently the German headquar ters staff in Kolberg is directing its energies again toward organization on the Baltic front in the confidence that there is no longer any imme diate occasion for concern over the Polish front. Field Marshal von Hindenburg is in Kolberg. The total number oi volunteers now oo the eastern front or about to proceed there is estimated at nearly 100,000. Some of the old army troops are now on the eastern front Bawler Said Something. Bawler admired his wife immense ly and incidentally his wife's singing. At the party, when Mrs. Bawler was asked to sing "There Is a Garden in My Face," the husband glowed with pride. ' It didn't matter though she had a face like that of a hippopotamus and a voice like that of an elephant. He sat beaming as she sang. When about half-way through he whispered to his neighbor: , "Don't you think, my wife's got a fine voice?" "What?" said his neighbor, who was a bit deaf. "Don't you think my wife's got a fine voice?" "What?" ' "Doa-'t you think my wife's got a fine voice?" roared Bawler. "Sorry," said the other, shaking his head. "That aw'ful woman over there is making such a frightful row I cai't hear a word you say." Lon don Answers. h i) h AV; LI 1 !

Wales of Vermont were appoint ed to the civil service commission today by President Wilson, succeed ing John A. Mcllhenny and Hermon W. Craven, whose resignations were sent to the White House some time ago. The fact that the president has de cided upon a complete reorganiza tion of the civil service commission was disclosed today by efforts of members of congress and others to stay temporarily at least a clean sweep of the commission's member ship. Messages have been sent to the president asking him to .post pone action uiltil his return home. Members of congress were shown a letter from the president to Com missioner Charles M. Galloway, asking the latter's resignation with out assigning a cause. They were told that a similar letter had been received by Commissioner Hermon W. Craven, and that since John A. Mcllhenny, president of the com mission resigned a month ago to go to Haiti as a financial agent, the membership of three would be wiped out by the resignations Friends of Commissioner Gallo way in congress toramunicated with the president by wireless in an ef fort to have Mr. Wilson withdraw his demand for Mr. Galloway'j re tirement, but it was said at the White House that aa entirely new commission would be appointed. No explanation of the president's de cision to reorganize the commission was given.
