PETROGRAD. - The difficulties
hedging in existence of those who
live in Petrograd during these
times of disturbed regime and short
age in necessities of life, extend in
all their details to the ordinary
simple task of buying a shirt. To
accomplish this takes time, patience
and determination.
First, one must find the shirt. One
may visit forty shops before he finds
one of the proper size. The ques-
ton of preference of style is not
to be considered for one moment.
Otherwise one will never get the
shirt. Having found something that
resembles a shirt of the proper size,
one deposits a small payment to
hold it.
The next thing is to convince
ones house committee-there is a
commune in every apartment house
in Petrograd now-that he needs a
shirt If the house committee passes
favorably on the subject, it SO re.
ports to the precinct or district
"soyiet" or commune. This in turn
reports to the commissary in charge
of the distribution of shirts and kin
dred articles of clothing.
/ If one is quite lucky, after five
or six days time he receives a duly
signed and sealed permit to buy g
shirt. Then he buys it, but ordin
arily pays the Russian equivalent Of
SIS or $40. Some of the poores
quality, may be found as low as the
Russian equivalent of IS.
! This restriction of purchase ex
tends to all major articles of men:
and women's clothing and shoes, anC
recently, because of the linen ant
cotton good shortage, was applied
to handkerchiefs. Prices for every
thing are in proportion to the shirts
an ordinary suit of mems clothing
costing the equivalent of 500.

A large brown bear is killing rein

A large brown bear is killing rein
deer in the district around Cape
Wales, according to Superintendent
Walter E. Shields of the Bureau of
Education. The bear was caught in
the act of killing one of the deer
and was dispatched by the native
herders. Another deer had been
killed the day before by the same
animal The presence of brown
bears in the Wales district is un-
usual, none having ever been seen
before this year. White bear are
frequently seen along the coast, but
the brown bear generally roams far
south of this district.

AMONG iii CHURCHES

of the most vehement attacks upon
the Hapsburg and Hohenolletnz regi-
mes anr German feudal j%unkerdom,
and a scratching denunciation of Prus-
sian militarism which Trotzky dis
sects and show ups in a mastery way
as a reactionary and retrograde insti-
tuition and as a to civilization.
A good part of the book is devoted
also to a powerful criticism of the
German Socialists for supporting the
German government in the wal and
helping it along in it's imperialistic
aims.
After an analysis of past and pres
ent events Trotzky turns his gaze to
the future, and lays down the pro-
gramme which he considers is the only
road to the salvation of humanity.
This is the part in which he proclaims
his message to the world. And it is
this programme which he is now
translating into practice as minister
of foreign affairs in Russia.
Only nine months ago Trotzky lived
with his wife and two children in a
three-room New York tenement in
the Bronx, a plain Socialist writer and
lecturer, of admitted ability, it is
true, but still one of the rank and
file. Today he is Foreign Minister of
Russia, fated as the Wall street Jour
nal says, to exert a greater influence
upon the destinies of the world than
Napoleon Bonaparte.
Trotzky knew hat his stay in the
United States would be brief, for he
foresaw the impending Russian Rev.
o%lution, and told his friends here that
he would return to Russia immediate
ly upon the outbreak of the Revolu-
ton. The Revolution did come as he
predicted, and what Trotzky is now
doing as Foreign Minister and what
he expects to do in the longer future,
is compellingly told in his book, ''The
Bolsheviki and World Peace"

THE DAY WORKERS INDUSTRIAL
UNION.

In view of the fact that living has
increased $50 per cent in the last Is
months, the Colored working women
of Kansas City have organized into
what is known as the Day Workers
Industrial Union. under the American
Federation of Labor, for a so per cent
increase of wages, thus receiving $40
per day instead of S1.60 per day. The
Union members are demanding the
Union wage, $40 per day, and all are
receiving it with little protest. We
are making an earnest appeal to all
women that do any kind of work by
the day to join this union. Do not be
afraid of losing your work, as no one
is doing day work but the Colored
women, and this is your opportunity
to ask for what we want and receive
it as well, as the high cost of living
makes it necessary. Joining fee, so
cents. Meetings every Thursday even
ing. 8 p. m. at the Labor Temple, 14th
and Woodland avenue.

Checking Up Labor

"We have instituted system of check ing up labor that has worked splen- didly in Mississippi and part of Ala bama," stated Cliff Williams of Meri- dian, Miss, director of the United States employment bureau for the south Atlantic ana gulf states.
 "In one Mississippi town a manufac- turer of nonessentials went out to a farm ana employed all the hands. The farmer reported to me that his 400 acres of grain would be lost and that he would be unable to feed his large herd of cattle and swine unless he got help and at once.
 q called up the manufacturer over the telephone and told him would close up his plant unless the farm laborers he had stolen were returned ae once. He tried to argue, but I hung up the receiver. An hour later the farmer called me up and said the manufactures had the sweetest voice he ever heard, and that the laborers would be back on the farm the next morning. We are not going to stand for any foolishness in this war game, and the employer or employe who tries to evade is going to find himself in lot or trouble"

 that another step forward has been made by the Bmng ham district. Tuscaloosa, Mobile New Orleans and a large part of the south will profit incalculably
 The claims of the Warrior have long been recognized by the farsighted builders Of Birmingham and Alabamas in Congress- Senator Bankhead in parc uar has abored faithfully and with much for the development of this valuable waterway But not until the brought on crisis in the railroad management of America and acute freight congestion for time aced this conys prosecution of the against Germany did the opportunity come for which so many Alabamans have been waiting.
 With the railroads taken by the government and obstacles vich held the project swept way, the War ror river along with other navgable streams in America is beginning to realize it's destiny. It will become carrier of coal and steel and other products of the B mngham district transporting cheaply vast quantities of
 freight to the gulf and removing for all time the threat of a freight congestion n the south.
 Birmingham and the state of Alabama rejoice at the splendid new prospect for industrial expansion and pros pey opened by the action of Secretary McAdoo in adopt ing the barge plan for the Warrior And we are under lasting obligations to Senators Bankhead and Underwood

A LEADER OF MEN

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. NR OU can tell a leader of men be-
 II cause he is attacked He draws
 = upon himself concentrated fire of venom and virulence that the lesser breed escapes. Like towering hills that he remembers he stands above the dreary, fog-bound pessimism of the vale His feet are planted surely, upon a mount of vision, and the horizon he com maids is wide, with the openness of all the sky there is and the rejoicing free dom of the sun.
 To assert oneself is to be challenged If you are assailed it is sign that you count for something. Some on has found if worth his while to attempt to bawl you down or to drag you out. You seem to deserve abuse. You are large enough to prove a tempting target. Con slider yourself complimented when you are the object of attack-it is a tribute to your eminence, whether you sought that eminence or not.
 No man becomes a leader who is ultra sensitive, who gets bitter and sullen un- der censure, who lashes frantically pack when he is lightly stung, who has a tart reioinder for every trifling provoca- ton.
 The strong men endure a. great deal m silence They open not their mouths to the "assassins of character. They iet
