PHOENIX AND ISSUES
MANIFESTO CALLING
UPON PEOPLE TO DIS
REGARD BOLSHEVIKI.
Newspaper Plants Which

dered Confiscated by the
B 0 lsheviki-Progress of
Peace Negotiations.
(By Associated Press)

London, Dec. 3.-Petrograd dis
patches today say the Russian provis-
ional government which was unseated
by the Bolshevili issued a manifesto
Friday, claiming to be the only legal
authority in Russia. The manifesto
urged the people to disregard the de-
cree of the Bolsheviki and advises the
convening of the constituent assem-
bly, elected in the past few days.
The manifesto processes the belief
that the assembly will sufficiently ex-
press Russia's will. It declares the
members of the provisional govern
ment released since their arrest have
endeavored to conduct the government
since the Lenine uprising.
The Daily Mail correspondent says
the provisional government has been
able only to supply money for state
necessities and points out that Keren-
sky and his ministers of war and ma
rine have resigned since the up
heaval.

Newly Arrived National Guardsmen
Are Being Prepared for Active

(By Associated Press)


American Headquarters in France,
Dec. 3.-American engineers building
railroads behind the British lines,
caught in the first German rush near
Gouzacourt yesterday, sought refuge
in shell holes, from which they were
rescued by British counter attack.
They then joined the fighting ranks,
repelling the Germans, and went on
night patrol. Several were captured,
but they escaped their captors.
Officers who were among the first
to enter the trenches have been trans
ferred to direct the work of getting
the newly arrived guardsmen ready
for the front.
The cout Of instruction has been
shaped to achieve the greatest results
in the shortest time without omission
Of any necessary details. Divisional
headquarters reports indicate that the
training is progressing rapidly. Snow
has whitened elevated places in the
American zone and increased the mud
in the lowlands. Engineers work on
the supply line are reported to have
passed through several bombardments
without casualties.

Men at Camp and to Men Who Have
Failed to Appear, and Asks Adju-
tant General BOree.

Judge Franklin J. Cole, Attorney
Phil Swing and Attorney J. Stewart
Ross, appointed as members of the
Imperial county registrant advisory
board, will meet tomorrow in Judge
Coles chambers for organization. At
the meeting subcommittee will be
appointed to help the draft registrants
fill out their questionnairies and to
protect their rights.
The members have received formal
notice Of their reappointment, and a
circular setting forth just what is ex-
pected of them. They are to give
registrants every assistance in their
power in making out blanks and in
helping them with claims for exemp-
ton, etc.
The circular contains the following
paragraph:
"The governor shall constitute le-
gal advisory boards in such numbers
and within such districts that there
shall be convenient to every regis
trant who has to appear before To-
cal or district board within the state,
a legal advisory board, to which such
registrant may apply for all neces-
sary advice and assistance in prepar-
ing claims, questionaires or any
other papers required by these regu-
lations."
Sir thousand questionnaires have
arrived at the office Of the local
board. Instructions are that they
shall be sent to every registrant.
There are $3.50 in this county, in
cluding all the men who have been
sent to camp, exempted, physically
discharged, and those who did not ap-
pear to 60 to camp.
The board is not certain that the
questionnaires should 60 to all these
men, as it is evident that the 1890
who did not appear and who are list
ed as delinquents are automatically
drafted into the service, and the men
at camp do not need to sign the pa
pers.
