WAY TO WIN MASSES RESTORATION OF LIBERTY EXILE RUSSIAN LEADER'S VIEW (Received October 6, 5.5 p.m.) NEW YORK, Oct. 5 The United States must initiate the mobilisation of forces for the task oi world reconstruction, without which the war would be fought, in vain, said M. Alexandre Kerensky, Prime Minister of Russia from July to October, 1917, and a refugee since his fall, when addressing a mass meeting at Cineinatti of the newly-fonned League for Human Rights, Freedom and Democracy. The league has launched a nation-wide campaign tc mobilise labour against totalitarian propaganda. M. Kerensky said that after the war the world would be confronted with a Russian as well as a German problem. "Hopes that Stalin may betray Hitler and return to collaboration with the democracies are ii wicked illusion; and a complete absurdity,'' he added. In order (hot Britain and France might obtain the co-operation of the German and Russian masses it was necessary to make their war aims clear. The Germans must feel that they would not be victims of another Versailles. "All must be made to feel the war is for the restoration of liberty in all countries where it lies prostrate," he said.
