Washington, Aug. 26.—President
Wilson urges generous ^upport for
schools of all gra cites during war
time. In a letter (a Secretary Lane
approving the Bureau of Education's
plan 'or an educational camaign
this summer and fall, he says:
"I am pleased! to -know that de*
spite the unusual curdens imposed
upon our people by the war they
have maintained their schools and
other agencies of education so near
ly at their normal efficiency. That
this shoulU be continued through
out the war and that, insofar as
the draft law will permit .there
should De no falling off in attend
ance In elementary schools, high
schools, or colleges is a matter of
the yery greatest importance, af
fecting both our strength in war and
our national welfare and efficiency!
when the war is over. So long as
the war continues there will be con
stant need' of very large numbers
of men and women of the highest
»nd most thoiough training for war
service in many lines. After the
war there will be urgent need not
only for trained leadership in all
lines "* industrial, commercial, so
cial and civic life, but for a Very
high average of intelligence and
preparation on the part of all
the people. I would therefore urge
that the people continue to give
generaus gupport to their schools of
ill grades and that the (school ad
just themselves as wisely as possible
lo the new conditio:^ to the end'
that no boy or girl shall have less
opportunity for education because
the var and that the Nation may
!>e strengthened as it can only be
through the right education of all
tg people. I approve most hearti*
y your plans for making through
the Bureau of Education a compre
hensive campaign for the support
it the schools and for the mainteh*
mce o* attendance upon them, and
trust that you may have the co
operation in this work of the A
merican council of Education."

SAY KERENSKY
IS A TRAITOR
London.—Keren&ky's sojourn, in
Enngland la likely to be loader than
was originally Inteded, owing to
his lnaollity tfl ootaln a passport
for a Drivate and nighly profitable
lecturing tour In America. He has
received an offer of flattering
terms from an American impressarlo
to tour the States as a lecturer.
The, contract specifies a fee of
$1500 for each lecture for a series
of 10, and half that amount for a
further 40 or 50 lectures. The a
mount promised Include railway
and hotel expenses and the services
of a secretary and translat r.
Though Kerensky's credit in his
country is low, and he is denounc
ed oy all parties as tn© author of
their trouble, the Daily Chronicle
remarks that his drawing power is
evidently high in America, judging
tT the bait thus thrown to him
from the other side of the Atlantic.
Kerensky'a retention here is warm
ly approved by those best acquaint
ed wtth his record. The charges a"
gainst him are thus summed) up;i
Kerensky 13 of German extraction,
but took the name of his stepfather.
Before the revolution he was a paci
f'st, and said he did not regard the
Germans as enemies. At a great
meeting- of the Socialistic revolution
ary party he advocated Immediate
peace without annexations. When
minister of justice he issued! a, de*
era© which destroyed the Russian
armies, robbed the allies of vic
tory las* year, and is responsible for
the deaths of several hundred
thousaud men. He arranged a wel
come for Lenine, Trotzky and Ka
menoff, who he kne^y. were sent in
to Russia by Germany to spread
Bolshevism. He was closely asso
ciated, with German spies, and es
pecially with Staum, their head, al
though warned against them.
The German consul general at Ma
dffid said publicly that under Ker
ens ky Russian generals were ap
pointed Dy the German general staff.
That "s why Kerensky dismissed pa
triots like Kirniloff and Kaledine6,
whom he ordered) to courts, and
after lorbidding the assembling of
the duma, he abolished it. He Jived
in, great pfilendor a* the winter jjal"
aoe, from which he fled, leaving the
woman's "Battalion of JDeath" and
the young cadets to be killed by
the Bolsheviki, as many were.
The opinion is expressed that if
the allies have anything to do with
a man who is loathed1 by allj friends
of order in Russia, they will in
jure tuemselves seriously in the
eyes of the latter. A Siberian
Cossack paid that Kerensky a p
peared with the allied forces in Si
beria the Cossacks would fight a
gainst such forces.

FEEDING REFUGEES
ON FRENCH TRAIN
American Red Cross In Paris
.Quickly Answers Emer

HOMELESS LAUGH AND JOKE
No Bitterness, No Complaint, No Des
pair Among People, Many of
Whom Were Refugees for Se>
end and Third Time.
Paris.—"A thousand refugees from
the east of Amiens will pass through
Acheres at seven o'clock tonight.
They will not have had any supper,
some of them may not have had any
lunch. There Is no food there and no
facilities for feeding them. Can you
help us?"
That was the telephone message
from the French minister of the In
terior which came to the American
Red Cross at noon one day during the
German drive on Amiens, and the an
swer was "Yes. Emergency mes
sages are no surprise to us these days."
The food was ordered out of the
warehouses and a score of volunteers
rounded up.
They started at six o'clock the same
evening. One five-ton truck loaded
with tinned beef and condensed milk,
figs, prunes, chocolate and heaps of
huge loaves of war bread; two car
loads of midnight volunteers, stenog
raphers, bureau chiefs, drivers and
canteen workers set out on their way
to bring help to the homeless refu
gees.
They rolled out through the resi
dential district of Paris, out past the
fortifications, bumped through grimy
factory suburbs and on into the open
country where the level plains stretch
off Into infinite distance, broken only
by Interminable rows of slim pop
lars.
Then suddenly without warning,
there emerged from the forest Into a
black smudge of railway tracks, cin
ders, flat-cars, passenger cars, sheds,
platforms, warehouses, cranes—
Acheres. It was the junction point,
where the thousands of refugees were
to stop for half an hour.
Saluted With One Arm.
Lieutenant M met us there, sa
luted stiffly with his one arm, and did
the honors of the station. A group of
weary, muddy "permlssionaires," most
of them over forty, just back from
the Champagne front, were routed out
to help us establish our tables on the
cinders between the tracks, and pile
the food where It could conveniently
be passed into the train.
They unloaded bread, scraped
cheese, opened tins of "bully beef,"
knocked the tops off the boxes of figs
and prunes and made plans to feed a
thousand people in half an hour. But
somewhere off in the silent country
the train, packed full of exiles, was
standing on a side track. It was after
two in the morning when the long
train with Its 28 carriages filled with
refugees came Into Acheres.
A few windows were opened; tired
faces looked out and voices asked, un
lnterestedly, "Where are we?" and
were surprised to be told that they
were near Paris. The train was on
its way, they said to Tulle in the Cor
reze department, in the south of
France.
"Will they treat us well there?" an
old womnn asked and they. In the full
ness of their ignorance, not daring to
say otherwise, answered "Yes."
It was a short half hour. They
carried them bread, they filled the old
woman's apron with figs and prunes,
they gave milk to the children, meat
to the old men, cheese to everybody.
They absorbed cakes of sweet choco
late in a rapid and mysterious man
ner. Some of them were the much be
petticoated women of Picardy and
some were grizzled old farmers. Oth
ers were city folk, obviously not used
to third class travel. There were fam
alles of three generations huddled to
gether on their way—somewhere.
Some clutched precious umbrellas,
some carried bird cages, some alarm
clocks. Some of them had dogs, some
had cats. But the pathos of it all
Was not on the surface. Some of them
quietly told that they were refugees
for the second and third time and
laughed and joked when ihey woke up.
There was no bitterness, no com
plaint, no despair.
Bread Pile Fell Away.
The buge pile of bread fell away,
the fig boxes were emptied, the tins
were all handed into the trains. The
engine shrieked a shrill French whis
tle and the train pulled away. The
rescuers were in the silence of the
night. One of many thousands of ref
ugees had had one dreary midnight
meal, fur from home—one lonely meal
out of hundreds, perhaps thousands,
before them.
A train load of wounded from the
front joggled in ten minutes later. The
men nurses carried water through the
carriages swiftly and silently. Then
the Americans handed out the rem
nants of their stores of figs and the
train slipped away again. Behind them
could be heard the dull booming of the
barrage guns about Paris, a«d the vis*
itore knew that another air raid was
,,on. They waited until the barrage
stopped, then they headed back
through the defenses of the capital
There was a faint light as they rode
back through the forest. The? could

Washington, Aup. 9.—The War
Deoartment today has suspended

the department to present to the
President for nromulgation regula
tions in, connection, with the opera

will make it truly selective and
