FRENCH CHEFS GIVE OUR
CAMP COOKS POINTERS
PARIS. May 8. — At last a French
correspoiflfent hae found a weak spot
to the American Expeditionary Force.
The man who has ventured to strike
this first discordant note is the spe
cial representative of Le Temps at
the French front who happened to be
near the American section which had
the first real fight with the enemy
and so paid them a visit. He writes:
“There are oertain practical points
in which our allies are not yet past
masters, notably cooking. At first
scorning their own stews they pre
ferred to stick to canned meat entire
ly Our cooks dhowed them how to
make soup and they soon acquired a
taste for it. It won’t be long before
they will be making some good stuff
themselves, better any way than the
extraordinary mixtures I saw them
eating this evening, like canned sal
mon .with mashed potatoes and pick
led cucumbers.’’

OUTPUT COTTON
NEW YORK, May 8. — There Is no
power in Russia, which in the ab
sence of foreign aid, has the least
chance of over-throwing the Soviet or
Bolsheviki, government, declared
Professor E. A. Ross, of the Univer
sity of Wisconsin, in a report which
he has just made to the American In
stitute of Social Service. The Insti
tute sent Professor Ross to Russia
last year to study social conditions iu
that country and to try to establish
relations between Russion and Ameri
can social institutions.
“The Cossacks have qeascd to ex
ist and the bourgeoisie are impotent
to do anything for themselves,” wrote
Professor Ross. “The estates, no
doubt, have been divided among the
peasant communes and nothing but
foreign conquest can tear them from
the raoiuake.
“With the masses so ignorant and
inexpert in organization, and the
state corroded with the graft and in
efficiency inherited from the old re
gime, one cannot imagine public ca
pitalism succeeding in Russia. Such
an experiment should be tried only
by a more developed people. If low
productivity and waste cause the
thing* produced by the factories to
be "very scarce and dear, the dis
gusted peasants may in time lose
faith iu the Trotzky-Lenine program
and throw their support to a. party
that believes in private capital and
individual enterprise.
"Russia will never be able to free
herself from mass poverty, unrest and
explosion til she adopts, with ample
safeguards of course, the system of
individual property in the soil.
“I am often asked the question
whether Lenine and Trotzky are not
agents of Germany. I have no means
of knowing, but I found no one who
in private conversation avowed' such
a belief. The bourgeois newspapers
were full of such charges but the in
itiated paid no attention to them.
Let me observe, furthermore, that
these leaders are responsible for
everything they do to a delegate body
of 250 genuine Russians and if they
have sold out their country these
Russians have been unable to per
ceive the fact.”

ZURICH, slay 8. — According to
the Lcipziger Volkestimme, Germany,
during the past three years having
drained tne labor resources of Poland
almost to the point of complete ex
haustion, is now turning hejf atten
tion to the occupied territories of
Russia whence German troops have
already begun to transport men to)
Germany. The Germans also hoped
to obtain skilled workers from the j
densely populated Ukraine.
Polish laborers on estates in Sax
any are treated like modern slaves,
their wages are extremely low which
tends to keep down the rate of pay
tor larm work and to increase the
war profit of agrarians.
