ONLY WAY. To
SAVE RUSSIA
|5N|THDRANA[..
FROM THE WAR
WORKMEN'S DEMANDS .
WILL PROVE FATAL
Impossible 10 Keep Wheels
Of Industry Going
Longer.

PETROGRAD, May 2S. via London.
May %. 1:50 a. m.-The industrial cri-
sis in Russia is so acute that, accord
ing TO a recent uttcrance Of the minis
fer Of finance. N. Shingarog, only a
miracle can save the country from
economic ruin. The demands of the
wOrkmen, were so enormous, he de-
clared. that ii seemed impossible TO
keep the industrial wheels going for
any great length Of time.
The Socialist ministers, at a recent
ministerial council. said that the only
possibility they saw Of settling the
difficulty was 10 bring the war 10 a
close.
Neither the coalition cabinet nor the
newly appointed commission TO regu.
late the difficulties between capital
and labor has yet found a way TO set
tie the industrial crisis. The commits
sion is composed OF the ministers Of
finance, trade and industry and labor,
but since there is a wide divergence
of views between the minister Of
finance and the new Socialistic minis
ter of labor it seems probable that
this commission will be confronted
with the same difficulties that attend
ed previous efforts at reconciliation.
An investigation Of the factory CON
dirionS. in Petrograd leads to- the
alarming but inevitable conclusion that
unless the government soon finds Il
means OF adjusting the present din.
cuIties most Of the industrial enter
prises working. for national defense
will be compelled 10. close within i
few months

Distribution Of circulars at kayford,
on Cabin creek, and in Boone county,
advising young men between the ages
of u and 81 not to enroll with the reg
iStrars on June 5, in accordance with
The Federal selective couscription' law,

district court.
Reports were made TO Major George
S. Wallace, chief Of the bureaus OF
military census and enrolment, late
to-day. that these circulars had been
distributed but he was not informed
as to those who were responsible for
the propaganda.
The State military authorities were
unable to say whether the reasonable
effort TO prevent. compliance with the
conscription law was the work Of alien.

ton. or anarchiStical doctrines pro-
muIgated by those opposed 10 the pros
ccution OF the war. =
The reports from those sections are
the first received in West Virginia
that enemies OF the country are at
work, attempting 10 defeat the pur.
nose of the government in seeking to
successfully cooperate with the Allies

the government as war measure.
During the days hearing representa-

Mr. Thorne and other shippers rep

Counsel for the roads explained dur

sible if the increase was authorized.
That was one OF the considerations on
which the original petition by the
