RUSSIAN UNITY TO
SAVE COUNTRY IS
KERENSKY'S PLEA
Former Leader Says Country
Weak, Stalin Bankrupt-
Reds In U.S. Ask Support
New York, June 24. OP)
Pessimistic of Russia'! chances
with Germany, Alexander Ker
ensky, once head of the invaded
nation, urges Russians of all poli
tical creeds to unite to save the
country.
Kerensky, who 24 years ago
helped overthrow the czarist
regime and briefly headed the
provisional government until the
bolshevik revolution forced him
to flee, says his country Is weak
and Joseph Stalin bankrupt.
"Russia standi face to face
with Hitler's Panrer divisions,"
he said yesterday. "She cannot
expect direct assistance from
anyone. Nevertheless, we Rus
sian patriots are grateful to
Prime Minister Churchill for
his promise of giving the Rus
sian people whatever help may
be within the power of Eng
land." He said Russians were de
prived of the fruits of victory
In the last World war by the
"so-called revolutionary alms" of
Lenin, but that the country's
position today was "even more
tragic."
United States
Communist party leaders In
the United States declared the
homeland was "waging a
struggle for the cause of the
freedom of all nations" and
sked Americans to give full
support to the soviet union.
A joint statement issued by
William Z. Foster, party chair
man, and Robert Minor, acting
party secretary, also called upon
American workers to oppose all
"those reactionaries of every
stripe who seek In any manner
to aid Hitler's attack against
the soviet union."
The Daily Worker, formerly
official organ of the American
communist party and frequent
reflector of official party views
since its purchase by private
publishers last year, carried no
editorial comment on the Ger
man invasion but printed the
Foster statement In full.
The newspaper's page one had
this banner line over the lead
story: " 'Will crush foe,' Molotov
says, calls nazl war a wanton
act." A summary of Winston
Churchill's address yesterday al
so was carried.
Niagara Cheated
By Brave Officer
Niagara Falls, N. Y., June 24
OP) A daring rescue near the
brink of Niagara Falls was
staged today by Patrolman
Joseph Klein when he saw a
woman, identified as Margaret
Elmer, 63, Niagara Falls, retired
school teacher, being swept
toward the American rapids by
the swift upper river current.
Klein seized a life rope and
waded into the river while vol
unteers held the other end of
the rope on shore. He grabbed
her by the arm about 200 feet
from the brink of the falls and
both were hauled to safety.

ASHLAND U TO
Hitler's Insincerity in Treaties
Lines up With Mein Kampf Words
(This dally feature, conducted by DeWltt MaeKensle. b be
ing written Jn hi absence on vacation by Fred Vanderschmtdt).
Required re-reading for this I
week in Moscow, Rome, Tokyo
and elsewhere Is Chapter XIV,
Mein Kampf, by Adolf Hitler.
One wonders, too, if Hitler Is
not re-reading It himself In some
humiliation.
Contrary to some Impressions,
Mein Kampf has not turned out
to be a precise chartbook for
Hitler, for Hitler has betrayed
himself, by reason of necessity
or convenience, in various re
spects: for instance, in his ex
pressed desire for an alliance
with Britain as well as Italy.
The Russians, however, can
now weigh the utter Insincerity,
from the beginning, of the trea
ty which Hitler made with them
when he had to detour from
his course. For Mein Kampf not
only dismisses as worthless any
treaty with Russia ("we must
not forget that the Internation
al Jew, who today rules Russia
absolutely, sees in Germany not
an ally but a state marked for
the same destiny . . . one does
not conclude a treaty with some
one whose sole Interest is the
destruction of his partner.")
The book also, by constant
repetition, drives home this
thought: "neither western nor
eastern orientation should be
the future goal of our foreign
policy, but an eastern policy
signifying the acquisition of the
necessary soil for our German
people."
Well, Hitler, having failed to
knock out England, has gone
back to the book and gone after
the "necessary soil," and the
danger for his foes on the west
lies in the chance that he will
be able to carve that soil out of
the heart of the Russian rich
lands in six, or eight, or twelve
weeks; encircle and destroy the
Russian army and turn back
again in the direction of England.

CROPS IMPROVED
BY SULPHATE USE BY MAD SPELL, IS
SCIENTISTS TOLD ALIBI OF DRIVER
Cannery Beet Production In
Peat Soil Doubled by Tin
Application, Is Report
Pasadena, Calif., June 24.
(IP) Tin, zinc, copper and Io
dine sulphates have definitely
Improved crop production In
some regions. Dr. W. L. Powers
told the American Association
for the Advancement of Science,
which closed its regional meet
ing here Saturday.
Dr. Powers, head of the soils
department at Oregon State col
lege, reported that tin sulphate
had doubled cannery beet pro
duction In peat soil; zinc had in
creased cane fruit yields 20 to
30 per cent on silt loam soil, and
copper had given good results
on three widely varying types
of earth.
Tin and copper never have
been used commercially and Dr.
Powers warned that much work
remained to be done on the need
and safe rates of applying these
trace elements.
Boron Great Help .
Manganese has Improved
yields of certain Willamette val
ley crops and boron, commonly
applied In the form of borax, is
oeing used commercially, par
ticularly in western Oregon
where it has given spectacular
results.
"Boron appears to be as im
portant for 50,000 acres of al
falfa In western Oregon as sul
phur has been on eastern Ore
gon soils," Dr. Powers said.
The application of 40 pounds
per acre of boric acid in 1937
gave a total yield increase of
six tons over a three-year period
and eliminated yellowtop.
Sweden's iron and steel Indus
try is now concentrating on com
mercial iron, according to the
department of commerce.
