What memories, the day of Ice Cream Soda at five cents a glassl I wonder many times as I look at this sign if this drop to the prices of the early days of the present century have really increased the sales in this drug store. Undoubtedly an out lying store can afford to operate at this price, but to my way of thinking will a public that has been so long accustomed to paying at least ten cents or more go out of its way to get its Ice Cream Soda at half the price. I think not. The custom oLthe higher prices has been too long established to change and the Ice Cream Soda at 5c a glass is a thing of the past unknown to this day and generation.

The March revolution was an aimless, disorganized affair. Mobs drifted through the streets. There was machine-gunning from the roofs, but soldiers finally refused to fire on the crowds. Then came the abdication of a futile czar who had lost the support even of the nobles. Prince Lvoff, a liberal noble man. formed a coalition cabinet of all parties. Alexander Keren sky, a socialist lawyer, at first minister of Justice, later became leader of the provisional govern ment. • • • Americans Enthusiastic In American news of this Russian revolution was greeted With great enthusiasm. We were not officially In the wah, but diplomatic re lations with Germany has been broken off a month before, and it was certain that the United States would soon be Russia's ally. Those who had left hesitation at the thought of Joining hands with a reactionary autocracy in the name of liberty and democracy, ' wel comed Russia to the ransk of re publics. America was the first country to recognize, on March 22, 1917, the new government. By early April, the United States was In the war. With her new allies, she looked forward confi dently to a Republican Russia re suming the fight against the com mon enemy, Germany. President Wilson sent Elihn Root to Russia to strengthen sympathy with the allies, and loaned the new Russian government $190,000,000. Kerensky did his best, and Bru siloff hurled the weary, ill-equip ped long-suffering Russian troops against Lemberg for a last attempt. It failed. The Russian army was finally broken. Bolsheviki Take Command Gradually Kerensky’s support fell away. The convcrsatives thought him too radical. The Bol sheviki, growing in power under ground, boring into factory and army, had never really supported him. though represented in his gov ernment. Lenin and other Bol sheviki leaders were slipping back from exile and prison, organizing?; exhorting, converting. In November. Kerensky was overthrown, and amid the utmost confusion the Bolsheviki began to organize a government.

None answered but dermanyy, whose forces, un ipposed, were Invading deep Into Russia. After an armistice In December, the Bolshevlki, through Foreign Minister Trotzky, called on the allied governments to make a Joint peace with Germany. Trotzky’s proposal carried a distinct threat that if those governments didn’t, their people would rise and over throw them. “We promise every support to the working classes In every country which will rise against their own national Im perialists, chauvinists, and mili tarists," said Trotzky. Russia Out of War None answered, and meanwhile Serman troops drew near to Petrograd. Germany was able to ilctate the peace of Brest-Lltovsk >n March 3, 19X8, which took Rus ila out of the war and gave Ger nany huge slices of Russia’s east ;rn territories.

Francis left In Moscow, the new capital, an unofficial rep resentative, Col Raymond Robbins, and through him kept' trying to reach a common ground with the Soviet government. It was widely believed that the Bolshevik!, and especially their leaders, were paid German agents wrecking Russia to get her out of the war. True or not, Germany profited Just as though It had been true, as it was the release of her troops from the Russian front that enabled her to make the last des perate thrust at Paris in the sum mer of 1918. That thrust barely failed. Allies Invade Russia Accurate knowledge of what was going on in Russia there was none, even in Russia. There were wild rumors that Germany was shipping submarines, knocked down to Murmansk, whence she would launch them against Allied shipping from a new base. There were great Allied war stocks in Vladivostok and v at Archangel, Local Talent at Fulton Park Presented Pine Program Last Night Large Audience A delightful two-hour program featuring an abundance of local talent was presented last night at Fulton Park playground before several thousand spectators by Supervisors Catherine Conrlck, Katherine Deeley and James Ish erwood.

Confusion reigned. Nobody knew who really represented the Russian people. Thus the United States was per suaded, reluctantly, and after re sisting Allied pressure for six months, to embark on Its two “ex peditions’’ Into Russia, at Vladivo stok and at Murmansk and Arch angel. The Allies, especially the French were against Bolsheviks. Wilson made it perfectly clear that he had no intention of Influencing the form of government the Rus sians chose for themselveB, but the troops went anyway, in response to .urgent Allied pleas. Worse, the United States sold army supplies on credit to Admiral Kolchak, a counter-revolutionary leader, and allowed balances lent! Kerensky to be spent b yhla repre sentative- In the United Staten I Boris Bakhmeteff. Ion* after tbs Kerensky government had ceased to exist. Russian Opinion This naturally caused Russian opinion to lump the United States In with other Allied powers which were making open attempts to undermine the Soviets. If guilty at all In this, the United States was certainly less guilty than the others. And the efforts of all of them only served to put the Bol shevlkl In the position of defend ers of their country from a froeignj invasion, rallying even conserva tive Russians to thd only govern ment they had. When the armistice was signed and the World war ended, there was no longer any reason for American troops in Russia as a threat against Germany. Senators Borah and Johnson roused public opinion to demand the troops' re call, and this was done. But recognition did not follow. The Soviet government had repudi ated the Kerensky debts, and So viet envoys Martens was deported just before the Harding adminis tration came In. U. S. Refuses Recognition The Soviets made immediate overtures to that administra-' tlpn, bttt Secretary of State Hughes was cold. He reiterated the rea sons for non-recognition by Wil son’s Secretary Colby: 1. Repudiation of debts. 2. Propaganda. 3. Despotslm and no basis in »»m.lhf will iha Cnvlht IrAV. ernemnt. Hughes also added that normal relations could not be established until "the safety of life the recog nition by firm guarantees of pri vate property, the sanctity of con tract and the ■rights of free labor,” were established. Under Coolldge, Secretary Hughes In 19)3 laid down a flat policy that the United States would jiot even discuss recognition until adjustments of thes Russian debts to the American 1 government and to private Indivi duals whose property had bene con- 1 flscated. He Indignantly dismissed a Russian counter-claim for dam- [ ages alleged due to Intervention. NEXT: The issues at stake ln| the move for recognition.
