.RUSs|A'S FATE IN BALANCE
NEW GERMAN DRIVE AGGRA-
YATES SITUATION.
Civil War May Come if Coming Coun-
Gil FaiIs-Outside. Influence Can
Do Little.

Washington, Aug. 25. - Russia S
critical internal situation, aggravat-
ed by the new German drive against
Riga, threatening the capital, is watch
ed by officials here with grave con-
Germ. It became known that official
advices are closely in accord with
press dispatches describing grave po-
litical conditions.
The outcome of the forthcoming ex-
traordinary national council to be held
at Moscow is awaited here with inter-
est scarcely less keen than in Russia
itself. The immediate fate of Russia,
it is felt depends upon it.
Only Two Results Possible.
Out Of the great gathering, in which
the conservative elements of all sorts
are expected to unite in an effort to
compel the provisional government to
throw off the Socialist control Of the
Soldiers and Workmen's council, one
of two results is expected:
The formation of strong central
lied government capable of rapidly re-
organizing the army and resuming the
offensive against the Teutonic pow
ers, or open civil strife. 1t appears
that little can be done by outside in
tiuence, even that of the American
government, to help Immediately in
the crisis

WHEAT My BE- MORE THAy So
MUST RECEIVE ENOUGH TO STIM.
ULATE PRODUCTION.
Food Board to Consider Man Who Pro,
duces Grain as Well as Rights of
the Consumer.

Washington, Aug. 24.-The price to
be paid by the food administration for
the portion it buys of the 1917 wheat
crop probably will exceed So bushel,
it is learned here. The committee,
headed by DR.. H. A. Garfield, which
will recommend a price, will submit its
report early next week.
In recommending price the com
mittee, it was said, will take into con-
sideraticn the fact that the producer
must receive enough to stimulate pro-
duction next year and at the same
time will consider carefully war con-
ditions and the rights of the consum-
err. In passing the food control bill
Congress set an arbitrary price of So on
the 1913 wheat crop.
The hope of the food administra-
ton is that the Government price fixed
will obtain in all private transactions
throughout the year and it is ready to
buy up the entire crop for distribu-
ton if prices cannot be stabilized by
the mere fixing of a food administra-
ton price.

SENDING MAIL TO SOLDIERS
How Letters for the Boys in the Ma.
tional Army Camps Should
Be Addressed.

Washington, Aug. 23.-Before long
several thousand young men will be
in the various cantonment camps of
the National army, and their relatives
and other friends will wish to write
to them. In order to expedite the de-
livery of their mail and give the boys
the best service possible, the post Of
flee officials instruct their correspond
ents, if they know in advance the
company and regiment to which the
soldier is assigned, to address mail &C.
cording to this sample:
PRIVATE JOHN JONES,
A Company, First Infantry,
Camp Dodge. Iowa.
If the company and regiment are
not known, the mail should be ad-
dressed thus:
PRIVATE JOHN JONES,
of Minnesota,
Camp Dodge, Iowa.
When all troops are organized the
mail for each man will be distributed
direct to his company and regiment.
Until then it will be delivered through
his state section.

ment is made by the organized lum.
Der manufacturers of continued and
practically unanimous shutdown of all
the Pacific Northwest lumber mills

months, or until after the beginning

rather was the result of "a slump in
the market"
The Seattle Central Labor Council
has voted to place on the unfair
list" September i, all lumber mills
and camps which refuse to grant the

RECOGNIZE WOMAN AS EQUAL
Heads o. industrial Plants Say She
Can Do Any Work Consistent With
Strength Better Than Men.

Once man pretended to place wom-
an on a pedestal and worship her.
Now, according to Donald Wilhelm,
who reports ''The Confessions OF
Munition-Maker" in the Century, he
Is forced to recognize her as an equal,
and respect her. The quotation be-
low states the opinion Of a hardhead-
ed factory foreman, on the Importance
Of women in the world of labor:
"Welch, one can see, isn't emotion
al. One can trust his judgment OF
women.
"That is why I was glad he was
present in the officers room of the
company eating quarters when the re-
port was made In detail Of the strike
scheduled to take place the follow
ing Monday morning. He made a
speech, saying:
Gentlemen, we've all known Wom-
en- practically all our lives-sever since
we were born, practically. Most OF
us get to thinking that a woman can't
do mechanical work because they're
always willing to let a man use the
hammer, that being something he
thinks he can do. But woman can
do it. A woman can do anything that
man can do, and most things bet
ter, but men can't do anything near
what women can do. Now, maybe
you can imagine what women can do
in mechanics, and I know what they
can do. Leaving out big girls, say
women can do any kind Of mechanical
work that's consistent with their
strength better than men,
