U. S. WORKS ; TO BRING RUSS BACK TO WAR One Plan Considered Is to Spend Huge Sums in Russia For Products Washington. —The United States Government has for some time been giving careful consideration to steps that may be taken to assist the Rus sian people. This was disclosed when a high official was questioned regarding a published report that the State Department* has under con sideration a definite plan for the re llefs.of Russia. The official said no plan had yet been adopted, but did not deny that the problem is now under active con sideration. One plan which has been placed before the department con templates the expenditures of a large sum for the acquisition of Russian products for which Germany has Applying This Paste Actually Removes Hairs (Beauty Notes) Merely applying an inexpensive paste to a hairy surface, say beauty specialists, will dissolve the hairs. This paste is made by mixing a little water with some powdered delatone; after about two minutes it is rubbed off and the skin washed. This sim ple method not only removes every trace of hair, but leaves the skin free from blemish. To insure success with this treatment, be careful to get real delatone.

Those who advocate this plan con tend that many millions worth of cotton and oil could be procured for the United States which will be seized by Germany in time if the United States does not step in. Prient Is Good Time to Act Such a plan presents practical dif ficulties. For example, the transpor tation situation in Russia is such that it would be difficult to move these commodities in large quantities to the sea, but if this could be done the funds received would enable Russia to accomplish much in the way of rehabilitation. A project to assist Russia in an economic way has progressed to a point where the personnel of a body of men to be sent to Russia is under consideration. This will be almost wholly a commercial mission. For some time prominent businessmen have been associated in an effort to help Russia, working with the knowledge and consent of the gov ernment. The impression grew to day that important developments af fecting the policy of the United States and the Allies toward Russia may be looked for very soon. Would Explain Kerensky's Coming It is believed here that the pros pective developments have relation to the movements of Alexander Kerenskv, technically Premier of the only Russian government formally recognized by the United States and the Allies. The general view is that Kerensky will proceed to San Fran cisco'on the way to Vladivostok. The more conservative elements of Rus sia are said to be gathering in Si beria. These include Social Revolu tionists as well as Constitutional Democrats. It was reported that Kerensky had arrived in New York. Ambas sador Bakhmatieff could not be seen. Persons connected with the Embassy would not confirm or deny the re port. At the State Department it was said nothing was known there regarding the movements of Ker ensky. Diplomatic circles pointed out that the Allied and American governments naturally would want to conceal the doings of the Russian revolutionary leader. MILLIONS FOR ALL, HIS PLEA Man Who Explorted Roose velt Letter Held For Grand Jury !*ew York.—Charged with using the mails to defraud, H. ' Kent Holmes, a promoter with offices at 27 William street, wa sheld in $50,000 by United States Commissioner Hitch cock, gave surety and was released, to await action by the Federal Grand Jury. Holmes has been running the Unit ed States Promotion House, Inc., which he used to promote mercan tile and manufacturing concerns and provide funds for the developments of gold mines and oil properties. The complaint alleges from the same of fice Holmes, as H. Kent Holmes. Inc., dealt in stocks of the Allen' Oil Com pany, Williams Oil Company and Manganese Oil Company of Canada. In pamphlets sent through the malls, the postal authorities say. Holmes invited the public to join him and become "insiders" in Wall etreet. He also undertook to tell investors how ifti'.lionaires make millions in the Street, though a system abso lutely safe. Millions Aivalted "Right Man" "It is all in Knowing how." one of the booklets says, "and where the outside;- makes six per cent, profit the insider makes 100 per cent, profit-: The United States. Promotion House, Inc., has nothing 'to lose because it never invests its own money. There is one million or ten millions a year profit waiting for the right man in the street. "This company, once going well, will make as much money as any goldmine and it can pick up a dozen gold mines in course of time. We only need one deal a year to make ourselves multi-millionaires. Invest ment in the stock of the United RAItfUSBURG t£B|j£!& TELEGRAPH! States Promotion House, Inc., Is the safest investment \n America, and, combined with its safety, are possi bilities of profit greater than any gold mine or oil well in the world." In 1905 Holmes came into the lime light in Washington as the head of a plan to promqte the Newsboys' Company, which published the News boys' Magazine. About two years be fore, Col. Roosevelt had written a letter, which was published, com mending what was put before him as a plan to benefit newsboys by making them save money. l.oeb I.enrprd tbr Truth It was soon afterward that Wil liam Loeb, Jr., was made secretary to President Roosevelt. Reports began to reach the White House that the letter was being used by Holmes to sell stock of the Newsboys' Company. An investigation showed that agents of Holmes got forty per cent, of the money obtained. Mr. Doeb called Holmes to the White House and told him of the in vestigation. The Roosevelt letter was returned the following day. Let ters from several Senators and Rep resentatives who had invested in Holmes' scheme also were recalled. Some of these men had signed sub scription blanks hlch read that the giver of a check agreed that the company could expend the fund as it saw fit. Merchants Bank Comes to Aid of Red Cross At the regular meeting of the board of directors of the Merchant? National Bank this morning, a reso lution was passed subscribing SSOO to the American Red Cross. Similar action was taken by the board of directors of the Central Trust Com pany,'at their regular meeting, also held this morning. The total sub scripUon of the two bands, amount ing to SI,OOO will be mfcde through the Harrisburg chapter of the Red Cross, putting Harrisburg still fur ther over the top in its second war fund campaign. Kerensky May Come o Win Aid For New Revolt —II' lw, mmiijami JCESEITSicy. Representatives ®f the Bolshevikl believe Kerensky is coming in the interest of some counter revolution ary movement in Russia and to start a campaign against American recog nition of the Bolshevikl. Yankee Flyers Learn Air Stunts in Italy; Great Glory, Says Page American Seaplane Training Camp, Central Italy. —American aviators in training here make occasional trips to a nearby town or, less frequently to Rome. This is the first school in Italy for Uncle Sam's aerial sailors. They at tend lectures, learn French and Italian, go through all the lessons up to "solo" flying, thencfe on through careful training to the time when they are recommended as fit for of ficers. Next their names travel over the Atlantic to the War Department, and finally they become officers and have their names enrolled among the fighters for the United States. "I know of no greater glory than that of being an aviator," said the American Ambassador, Thomas Nel son Page, to .some of them at a lunch given in their honor. Their camp is located near the banks of one of the volcanic lakes in the mountains nor of Rome. The winter and spring have been mild and the student aviators have been flying almost every day since they came, under the direction of Italian tnstrctor pilots. They utilize the take for bathing. On their Saturday afternoon and Sunday holidays they ride over to a cathedral town set on on a big rock, go to church, see f .he sights, spend a ii'.tle money on restaurant food, pos sibly put up overnight at one of the many little hotels that are lan guishing here since the war cut off tuorist traffic and they ride back again Monday morning for a new week's training Those fortunate enough to have toothache or teeth in the need of repair may go to Rome for the pur pose, Uncle Sam not having yet pro vided a dentist exclusively for this camp, as he ha sat the bigger camp for aviators in the south of Italy. As teeth connect with the nerves which are supposed to regulate the sense of equilibium, It will be understood just h4w important commanding of ficers consider such troubles. With out a proper sense of equilibrium a man canno' fly without running the lisk of breaking his neck or a val uable machine. Sometimes money becomes a draw back to *he Rome excursion, in view of the i-iesularities of pay days. One sharp youth fiom Missouri overcame this handicap by borrowing Fiench, E'iglisn or American money from hi 3 comrades. In Rome he exchanged this for Italian paper money at the rate of eight and one-half lire to the dollar, spent what was necessary to see the sights and returned to the camp with more money than he had when he started He repaid his debts at the rate of five lire to the dollar. Hunger of Holland Is Charged to the Allies; Takes Issues With U. S. Washington.—Holland has pre sented to America another note on the requisitioning of Dutch ships. It takes issue with America's reply to Holland's protest on the ground that it was irrelevant as to the main points, that it made no effort to es tablish the legality of the action and advanced no jurlsdical argument, merely citing facts. The communication Injects a new element into the controversy, in that blame for the fod shortage in Hol land is placed on the Allies and the United States, not on Germany. While Germany had sunk consider able Dutch tonnage, she had left a "sane lane" for egress and ingress to Dutch ports. The State Department, it is under stood, has asked the Dutch govern ment if it is willing to have the cor respondence made public. Holland has; made no objection. Nothing positive is known here about the reported new Dutch de cree prohibiting the sailing of ships from Holland. In an authoritative quarter it is learned that such an order wSuld not affect the departure from -Holland of three vessels to replace the Java, Stella and Hol landia, the latter from an Argentine port, under an arrangement entered into by the two government*. As soon as these vessels sail'from Amer ica, it is said, three steamers of ap proximately the same tonnage will sail from Dutch ports. It has not been settled whether the ship sub stituted for the Hollandia will re turn to an American or an Argen tine port. Holland make the point that the three ships about to sail with grain (or Dutch ports were not included ■among those requisitioned by the United States and England, being on the high The State Depart ment has been Informed Hol land Intends to send a convoy to the Dutch East Indies. It Is assumed that Holland (intends to convoy Dutch ships from the East Indies to her own ports to prevent their be ing requisitioned by the Allies, as well as to flght submarines it at-' tacked.
