THE MoUJIK HAS SPOKEN.

! OF the enormous population of Russia eighty
per cent may be described as mouths OF
peasants Now that Russia has been emanci
lpated from autocracy the ''moujik' represents
the majority in what was once the land OF the
ear, There is disorder in portions OF Russia
and for this the peasantry cannot be held en-
trely irresponsible. The soldiers and the so
Icialists have also been partly instrumental In
causing unrest and an approach to anarchy.
But the heart of the "moujik" is sound
Though his level of literarcy is low, his faith is
strong He has compassion for all who suffer,
having himself known by bitter experience
what suffering means. He pities beggars; he
pities all the worlds disinherited The car
used to be his "lttle father But the Russian
proverb is: "Our souls are Gods; our bodies
are the czar's.'' And now the ''Mouiik 50
body is free. He sees what is happening at the
front and is indignant at the soldiers inactiv-
ity in the trenches.
Dispatches from Petrograd indicate that the
all Russian council of peasant deputies has In
sisted on the continuance of the war, and on
Russia's support of her allies until victory IS
achieved. One peasant gave expression to the
feelings of his elass-a class numbering one
hundred and forty million-when in a speech
he used these words: Separate peace is utter
~ impossible. Separate peace would mean
not only the death of our revolution but of
revolutions in the whole world. Separate
peace would bring shame and dishonor on
Russia and would be treachery to the allies.
One thing remains to advance
This is the voice of the millions of awakened
Russia The ''mouiil1'' has spoken. The
watchword of the great Russian nation must
be: '.Advance."

SLOW ACTION ON WEBB BILL.

One of the questions respecting the foreigr,
trade of the United States which was cleared
up long ago, so far as expert opinion was con
cerned. is that of permitting manufacturers to
form combinations or cooperative associations
for the development of oversee business The
Webb bill, permitting American manufacturers
to do what their competitors in other countries
were doing before the war and will do after
peace has been declared, was passed in the
house last year, The federal trade commission
asked for its enactment; the president made it
a part Of the administration legislative pro
gram in the last session of the last congress,
and it was approved by leading boards of trade
and other commercial bodies in all parts of the
country.
Men with frst-hand knowledge of methods
employed by German manufacturers TO build
up an enormous foreign trade pointed out that
the German government not only permitted but
encouraged such combinations as the Webb bill
proposed to make legal in the United States
Moreover, they said that American producers
and exporters would be at great DISADVANTAGES
after the war If our own government withheld
permission 10 form cooperative associations
But nothing was done in the senate. and when
the bill failed it was hoped and believed that
the new congress would act at once The meas
ure was discussed in the senate q week sco. fol
lowing a favorable report by the committee.
but it was not brought to vote, Apparently it
is no nearer enactment than it was last fall
Meanwhile other countries, including Great
Britain and France, are giving much attention.

ANOTHER QUESTIONABLE CHOICE.

/ General GoetnalS having been put IN cnarSe
| of merchant ships construction found right
away that his ideas conflicted with those of
/ Chairman Denman and certain other members
of the shipping board. Their plan was to build
wooden ships, and contracts therefor had been
let as would seem to anybody who would take
them, although no plans or specifications for
such vessels had been prepared. General Goe-
thals found this wooden ship project hope
less proposition, and it would appear that he
found the shipping board as at present con-
Isttuted almost as hopeless; for he had come, as
he said, ''to regard all boards as long, narrow
and wooden Having satisfied himself that
the steel required would be forthcoming. the
general declares that three million tons of steel
ships can be turned out by our yards inside of
eighteen months; and he seems TO have con
verted a majority of the board to his ideas
Chairman Denman. however, does not readily
rehnquish his wooden ship plan and shows
some heat at the turn things have taken
Mr.. Denman is a California man whom Secre-
tary McAdoo is credited with having made
chairman of the board His appointment to
the position astonished the country and the
reasons for 1t are not vet generally known. It
was the popular expectation and assumption
that Bernard N. Baker, of Baltimore would be
the chairman of the board. He is generally
rated as the leading authority in this country
on shipping and ocean transportation He Is
an experienced. practical man intensely inter
ested in building an American merchant ma
rine and not al all concerned TO play politics as
member of the board. He seemed TO have
realized that he could not work TO advantage
under the influence that dominated the board
and resigned his position when the chairman
