H. Boynton, of New York, president of the American-Russian Chamber of Commerce. ,Mr. Boynton. who is now in Petrograd, has forwarded to the organization, of which He is pres- ident. a statement on the conditions in Russia, in which he presents an optimistic view of the Russian out- look. Wherever separate peace has been mentioned, it hag been howled down with indjgnation, he = Writes. Efforts made by the Russian extrem- ists to create disorders have been overthrown not by armed force but by the force of publi¢ opinion. “If in the future appearances in Russia should seem alarming,’ Mr, Boynton asserted, ‘‘the real situation will be | in the hands of a ministry composed of the best Russia can offer.” He predicted that the task of re-organ- izing the government's policies will be accomplished before many months. Industrial operations, according to Mr. Boynton, would at present meet insurmountable obstacles owing to the requirements of the war; but he ' declared that American capital and merchants interested in the Russian field, should lose ro time in preparing and equipping themselves for the huge commercial business which, In his opinion, is certain to be co-inci- dent with the end of the war. Mr. { Boynton's statement follows: Turn Came Quickly. “That one may have a fair and Jjust appreciation of the events which have taken and are yet to take place in Russia, it s necessory to under- stand the psychology of the situation. A nation under a rule of absolute au- tocracy for centuries suddenly found itself an absolute democracy. Al- most over night autocratic Russia be- came the,most liberal democracy in the world. Liberty, freedom and equality were proclaimed and’ polit- ical exiles and agitators were admit- ted within her borders from'wher- ever arriving. A nation that had not dared to express its individual feel- ings or opinions, either in writigg or in speech, wam released' from all re- straint. Years of repressed ideas and sentiments were able to find full vent. The government has allowed every phase of political discussion, and even that of such an extremist as Lenin, to proceed without interference and refused every suggestion of repres- sion. If under these. circumstances there should be a bable of conflicting: opinions and some fanatic agitation, it is not only understandable, but in- deed quite natural. The wisdom of the policy of permitting unrestricted assemblage and discussion was evi- denced in the quick stamping out of anarchistic preaching by the power of public opinion. “This was not planned nor organized revolution. It was a spon- taneous outburst of dissatisfaction and resentment against existing rule 50 unanimous that an empire be- came a democracy with the least THE ASI4 American and Chinese Restaurant, at 73 CHURCH STREET Will open for Business on THURSDAY, JULY 19TH.

The problems now confronting the government are both social and political. Soclal evo- lution must follow political revolu- tion. In a nation so huge and of such . diversified interests, time, cour- age and patience must be allowed for .clear understanding and adjustment. The marvel Is that with restraint and control absolutely removed, disorder has been so inconsequential. No Vandalism. “The poseibilities from the dangers of disorganization were enormous, es- pecially as many criminals were set at liberty, and yet there has been no vandalism and no invasion of per- sonal rights, except the few local in- stances located in the center of vio- lence during the davs of the actual revolution. .The self-restraint and moderation shown by the entire na- tion Is the best tribute to its sobriety, solidarity and reasonableness and the best promise of what the future has in' store. The Russian people are naturdlly homeloving and of peace- ful disposition. They are neither ar- rogant nor quarrelsome. Agitators may temporarily cloud their point of view by misrepresentation ang selfish design, but just as certainly they wilt return to their normal psychology. 'To understand the demonstration of May 4 which an its surface looked menacing and grave, it must be kept in mind that in Russia such demon- strations are the only -method by which popular opinion can find ex- pression. There has been no zum‘ase and therefore the ballot was. rep sented by so-called d‘monqmuona. ‘Whatever further occurrences of this sort take place must be 80 interpreted. On the day of the 21st, (May 8, Gre- gorian calendar) when the govern- ment took its positive stand against the extremists, it was posible to see in these demonstrations the quick turn in public sentiment. Within two hours after the anti-government parade passed up the Nevaky, the streets were filled with cheering supporters of the government, and the effort of the ex- tremists to create disarders was quick- ly overthrown, not by armed force, but by the force of public opinion, The Soldiers’ and Workmen'’s deputies de- nied responsibility for the agitation and investigation proved that the whole movement came fram agitators with ulterior-motives. The result has been wholesome and a decided strengthening of the govstnmenl‘ position. M1t should not be overloaked that these disorders were local and that the nation at large, so enormous in terri- tory, quletly pursued its ordinary vo- cations. Since that day there has not been the slightest disturbance or demonstration anywhere. A recent meeting of the governors representing nearly all European Russia showed that the nation at large supported the provisional government. Russian Ministers Good. “The future will hold other occa- sions when superficial appearances will seem alarming, but the real situa- tion will be in the hands of a ministry which, even the most critical acknow- ledge, 18 composed of the best Rusaia can offer. These men are working pa- triotically to the limit of their phy- sical abilities to bring modern pro- gressive methods into government ma- chinery thdt had become rusty and in- effective. It will take time to re- organize the government's policies, and executive administration, but the men who are burdening themselves with the task are certain to realize the fruits of their labors before. many months, “The commercial and business op- portunities He in every branch of in- dustry and trade, just as much so as confronted the United States one hun- dred vears ago. War has created a scarcity of labor and the war’s neces- sities practically monopolize transpor- tation facilities. Thus immediate in- dustrial operations would encounter almost insurmountable obstacles and heavy flnancial commitments for new enterprises would not be justifiable at this time. Merchants everywhere seek American goods and orders are the easiest of things to secure, but de- liveries are impossible ,except, for such goods as the government permits for the requirements of the war. There is a world’s shortage of tonnage and no private enterprise or opportunity can be permitted to occupy one yard of space that energetic prosecution of the war requires . ‘,Russia has few ports, and the full transportation facilities from them are more than necessary foe handling absolutely essential freight. In re- fusing to permit private enterprises to hinder the war's requirements, Americans must recognize that Russia is taking a proper step to assist her allies to win the essential victory. To this end. all else must temporarily be subjected. This condition is likely to continue as long as the war lasts, but on the other hand, American cap- ital and merchants interested in the Russian field should not lose a mom- ent's time in having their representa- tives in this field studying its possi- bilities, creating organization, making business connections, learning where the opportunity in their particular lines lie, informing themselves of the requirements of the Russian trade in all its details, obtaining knowledge of the people and their language, in or- der to facilitate negotiations and thereby equip themselves for the huge commercial business which is certain to be coincident with the close of the war. Those who- neglect tq take ad- vantage of the present for these pre- liminary steps will find that when the war is ended others who have done so will have a decided advantage and the fleld will be occupied by these and others who are geographically nearer Russian markets. Redrafting Laws. “The new Government is re- -draft- ing laws relating to finance, trade and industry in such a way as to facili- tate the rapid economic development of Russia and allow broad expansion of her commercial and industrial life. Russia opens her arms to serlous business men whose object is not traf- fic in concessions, but actual develop- ment and production, and for such her terms are sure to be liberal. “America occupies a fortunate po- sition in relation to the people of this nation, who have been sentimentally 19r7.

High Tide in Telephone T raffic This chart shows the extraordinary growth of the long distance traffic.in the Bell System under war conditions. It does not show the tremendous advance in the price of raw materials, which enter into the manufacture of telephone equipment—more than doubled since the war began. It does not show the increase in the price of labor and the shortage of both labor and materials, which have set a definite limit to the increase in telephone facilities. The entrance of this nation in the great war, was the signal for the Bell System to pledge its entire.service, un- reservedly to the Government. As our military strength grows, andgwenbecome lar~ ger participants in the great war, the demamds of the Government upon our service will continug#to“increase, and must always be met. An extraordinary increase in telephone&traffic due to the unprecedented commercial and industrialkactivity in- cident to the war, must also be adequatelygprovided:for.
