Il crowd which cleeretl his utter

eial minutes of the meeting. as n,h.
Eshed today, contained bitter al
tack on the provisional government
Tor blanket approval OF HI contracts
and agreements pledged by the for-
ner aatocratic government with the
allies.
THE workmen and soldiers do not
even know The provisions OF all these
agreements" the journal asserted.
The government statement yaicina
approval Of the contracts and ohliga-
tioas OF the former regime was de-
ciasesi to have been secretly prepared
al the home Of Minister Of War

the soldiers and workmen's repre-
sentatives.
Not alone did the meeting attack

fieials were seeking 10 cast discredit

sentiin. false news of their activities
out of Russia. The committee de-
manded permission to disseminate It's
own news reflecting its views. This
request of the committee WAS for
malIy granted today.
Foremost in the category OF false
news which the committee charged
WAS being given circulation abroad
by the provisional leaders, was the
impression which il was asserted
had been spread, that the Russian
constitutional convention WOULD not
be held until after the war and the
inference that the workmen and sot-
diers had approved such IA course.
On the contrary the committee
made the formal demand that the
assembly be held 4; the
earliest possible date.
