Girls Take Mems Places
on Government Jobs
(By United Press. J

London, July 15.-Whitehall Great
Britain's official governmental nerve
center, is soon to be ruled by women,
it was announced today.
With conscription enacted, steps are
being taken to clear all government de-
partments of young men eligible for
military service. Women are being
trained to take their places.
In exceptional cases a few govern.
mental offices will retain their indis-
pensable males but the latter will re-
main principally to train the women.
Hundreds of men who have basked
behind the official jobs for 20 months
already have been given their 10 days
grace to arrange business and domestic
affairs.
An official census for April elected
that 1929 single military eligibles were
employed in the admiralty alone; 1,032
in the board of trade; 623 in the war of.
flee; 465 in the ministry of munitions;
l45 in the board of education; 2,302
customs; 1,7S0 inland revenue; and hun
dreds more in other departments in ad-
dition to the postoffice where single
and married eligibles numbered $1,000.

Siberian Cooperative So
cieties Grow Rapidly And
Performed Great Work

competition.
Nor was this all. Distances are great
in Siberia and means of transportation
few, so the cooperative societies were
practically dependent upon Siberian
dealers as market. These dealers did
not pay cash. They exchanged mer-
chandise for butter, paying whatever
price they pleased and charging any
thing they wanted for their merchan-
disc.
Whereupon the third branch Of the CO.
operative society was organized: the
Consumers society.
Things in Siberia then began to hum.
The private butter dealers one by one
closed up shop. Cooperative agents
bought merchandise wholesale in the
great world markets and shipped it
back to Siberia; they sold Siberian
butter at top prices, and the peasants
themselves got the difference in good,
hard cash, the first they had seen in a
long time.
This story can be duplicated in al
most any part of Russia. For instance
flax-growers used to get l-2 rubles
per pood of 36 pounds. They now get
8 l-2 rubles. Tar distillers in the north
formerly received rubles, per cack
after repetition of the Siberian ex-
perience, they are paid 6 and 7 rubles
for the same quantity.
Premier Stolypin, in 1907, gas tre-
mendous boost to cooperation when he
said the Mir, or community farms, ought
to be abolished and that the peasants
were not obliged to stay in the Mir.
The cooperative societies went sky
rocketing after that and have not stop
ped yet.
"Nor will they" Tchaykovsky said,
happily. "They respond to an urgent
need of the peasants. You Americans
are more individualtistic, your means Of
communication are better, you have
more cities and your communities as a
rule are more thickly populated than
ours. In Russia roads are bad, winters
are long and hard, and in most districts
along the six thousand miles from Baltic
to Pacific, with our width of three
thousand miles, the population is great
ly spread out. We must have co-opera-
tion otherwise the Siberian story must
Of necessity be repeated over and over
again."
