REVENUE LAW DOES ASSESS
 PARCELS POST

Postmaster z. M Bradford today received official notification that the new revenue law does assess a tax on parcel post packages, the added amount being one cent for every twenty-five cents paid, or fraction thereof This will make no addi- tional charge on packages weighing less than one pound, but for pack ages over that amount additional postage must be paid.
 Mir. Bradford suggested today that all persons who are mailing pack ages for Christmas buy their stamps and affix them before bringing the packages to the postoffice. In this way considerable delay at the mail ing window will be obviated and the office will be able to handle a great deal more business in the same number of hours than formerly.
 Under the new regulations a pack age which takes twenty-four cents or less postage will not be assessed additional tax; but a package which takes twenty-five cents or over, an additional cent will be assessed for every twenty-five cents or fraction thereof A package which takes twenty-six cents to mail the addi tional tax will be two cents.

KERENSKY PROMINENT FIGURE IN RUSSIA WAS PHYSI-
 CALLY WEAK.

LONDON, Nov 10.-Alexander F Kerensky, the deposed premier of Russia, though slight of stature sombre of mein, and physically SC weak, that sometimes it was neces- sary to carry him where he was scheduled to speak, possessed an iron will. He was educated a law yer and became prominent in public life by espousing the cause of work ing people, mostly those accused of political crimes, He was born at Simbirsk, European Russia, and at- tended the Petrograd University. He was elected to the Duma in 1913, and was kept under police s1lrveil- lance. His exposure of corruption among officials in the purchase of war munitions is said to. have has tened the revolution He was made minister of justice of the first cab met formed after the revolution and he ordered the releases of polit- ieal prisoners in Siberia. Later he w2s made Minister of War and Ma rinc. In July, 1917, he was made Premier. He supported General korniloff in imposing the death sen- tenee upon mutinous troops, and visited the front and heartened the troops and kept busy at home trying to organize cabinet which would meet most nearly the desires of all factions. KorniIoff. while com mander in chief, led a revolt be- cause the military power was not placed in his hands, but the rebel lion was suppressed and Korni!off Was deposed. Kerensky remained firm in his policy that the war against German imperialism must continue for the future welfare of Russia even while the people them selves were struggling internally for democratic form of govern lnert

sian army. Korniloff was born in 1870 in Western Siberia. He won glory in the Russo-Japanese war by protecting its retreat from Mukden. He was at the head of the Russian forces which swept the Germans back through Galacia, and then, having run out of ammunition, and forced to retreat, he protected the rear guard of the retreating forces He was cut off and captured and held as an Austrian prisoner more than year, finally escaping by the aid of a Bohemian soldier As mili- tary governor of Petrograd he ar rested Empress Alexandra following the revolution. When the Work men and Soldiers committee de- manded that all military orders must be first submitted to it, he resigned He was given an import ant command under Gen. Brussiloff on the southwestern front and there again accomplished a brilliant victory against the Austrian forces. He was again made commander-in- chief. When some of his troops mutinied he asked and was given authority to exact the death penal ty and it is said caused a whole di- vision of Russian troops to be blown to pieces by it's own artillery. Lat CT, as stated he and Kerensky clash ed, and he tried to lead revolt, which ended in his arrest It is not believed here he will assimilate with the new Trotsky revolt gov ernment.

DECLINES RUSS
WORKERS PLEA
Federation of Labor viii
Not Take Part in Inter-
national Conference.

An international council Of work
men and Socialists from all countries
would be harmful and conducive to
no good result at the present time,
the executive council of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor yesterday
declared in a resolution and declined
to participate in any way in such a
convention.
The resolution was adopted after
conferences between officials of the
federation, and Jacob Baum, said to
be a courier entrusted with a message
from the executive committee of the
Workmen's and Soldiers. Delegates
Council Of Russia. After d conference
recently with Baum, Samuel Gompers,
president of the federation, made a
report to the executive council and
the resolution refusing to take part in
the convention proposed was adopted.
Baum also talked with Secretary
Morrison, and Vice President Perham
of the federation.
The resolution adopted by the ex-
ecutive council follows:
THAT we regard 1t as untimely
and inappropriate, conducive to no
good result, but on the contrary
harmful, to hold an international con-
ference at this time or in the near
future with the representatives OF all
countries, including enemy countries,
and We are constrained, therefore.
to decline at this time either to par
ticipate in or to call such a con-
ference.
I'VE take occasion to again send
fraternal greetings to the people and
the Republic of Russia and our ear
nest wishes for the success and per-
manency OF Russia's democracy. and
urge that we all make energetic ef-
forts in our common cause for free
dom, justice and democracy in all
of the nations of the world"
