Kerensky Not The Moses Says Seattle Star Writer
Charles Edward Russell, returning American mission member, tells The Seattle Star about Kerensky in Russia. He says Kerensky is not the dominant leader pictured, but a pale man in fragile health. Russians don’t want a Moses and want to cooperate with the new government rather than idolize one man. Baum denies Coast league plans to close the season early.
