kERENSKY WINS OVER
DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS
Coalition Cabinet Formed by
Premier Satisfactory to
Former Opponents.

PErTROGRAD, Oct. .b.-Prospects
Of healing the breach between the gov
ernment and the democratic congress
frightened during the day. The mem
bers of the main committee visited
Premier, Kerensky this afternoon and
explained last nights action OF the
congress and assured him that they
were In favor OF the government nam
ing a cabinet which in their opinion
should be coalition body.
The resolution adopted providing for
a preliminary parliament seemingly
met the approval of the premier. who
insisted only 1t should include all
elements of the population. After
comforting with the committee, NJ
Xerensky expressed the hope that
~ithin n few days he would be able
to announce the formation of cabinet
that would be satisfactory to the
country.
While Premier Kerensky favors the
preliminary parliament idea. he be-
lieves 1t should have power only to
initiate legislation. but the cabinet
should have final jurisdiction. The
government itself has worked out n
plan for such parliament which
would consist of 23i members includ-
ing all the elements represented in the
congress and in addition the constitu-
tional democrats.
The duma. however, is opposed tC
the plan of parliament, declaring 1,
to be a measure of sef-deception thai
may result In the postponement OF q
constituent assembly, and because OF
the incomplete representation on It's
formation.

Radical Changes in Applica-

GROWING DANGERS FORESEEN
Resentment and Dissatisfac-

NEW YORK, OcI. 5.-Recommen-
dations that the liability of married
men subject to military service by
conscription be postponed until all
available unmarried men shall have
been called into service are made in
list OF suggestions for the improve
ment of the administration of the
draft act prepared here by a number
of local board members addressed &c
the president the governor, the pro.
vost marshal general and the state
ad. utant general.
Drafting of married men while sin
gle men without dependents are not
called results, the recommendation
say. in much intense public dissatis
faction and resentment which as the
number of such cases increase, must
more and more seriously impair pub
lic confidence in the whole principle

alton of husbands and wives which in ,
cNitably tends to produce serious
moral and social dangers" the recon-
nendauon continues. exercises an
adv erse influence upon the population
of the future inaSmuch as marriages
are naturally fewer In war time and
imposes unnecessary public burdens
in increased casualty and death pay
ments and unnecessarily withdraws
from production the older, more eX-
perienced and established men.
"Of course our recommendation is
not intended to apply to resistrants
whose marriages were contracted with
n view 10 evade conscription." the
document adds.
The recommendations also suggest
that resistrants be examined only Ito
fast as the government can put them
in environments and also that power
be conferred upon local boards to dis
Charge registrants who in good faith
support dependents whether or no,
they belong to classes specifically emu
merated In the regulations.
Another suggestion Is that no uIs-
charge be denied a reRistrant having
dependents merely because in tho
opinion OF the board his savings are
deemed sufficient to maintain the de-
pendents, where those savings are NOT
large enough to yield an income ca
