"SAVE THE FATHERLAND."
STIRRING APPEAL TO THE ARMY
LONDON, July 24. A wireless Petrograd message states
"The Workmen's and Soldiers' Council has issued a stirring proclamation urging the soldiers to stand firm, and adding: 'The time has come for acting without hesitation. We acknowledge the Provisional Government, with whom lies the salvation of the Revolution ; we acknowledge its unlimited authority and power. Those disobeying the Government's commands will be regarded as traitors, and treated mercilessly.' "
The proclamation concludes: "The ruin of the Revolution spells ruin I'or all. Save the Fatherland!"
