AS we now have more than two
million men overseas it would
take 10 months to bring them
home if transports carried men
at a rate of 100000 a month.
So it will be Illogical to look
for our boys real soon. Es-

much policing duty ahead for
them over there.

Says Dual Monarchy Wants
Nothing From Russia.

PetrOgrad. - The constituent as
sembly has been dissolved by the
Bolsheviki authorities. Sailors guards
closed the assembly and a decree of dis
solution was issued the official state
ment says.
The text reads: when the con-
stituent assembly voted against the
declaration made by the president Of
the central executive committee after
an hours elaboration the Bolsheviki
left the hall and were followed by So
cial revolutionists Of the left on the as
sembly showing its unwillingness to
approve the manner in which the peace
pourparlers were being conducted"
The first hint the newspaper men
received that eXtrme measures were
contemplated was when they were in
formed that the Tauride Palace, where
the assembly held its sessions, would
be closed to the members of the as
sembly, to the newspaper men and to
everyone else.
Meanwhile all the Russian Railway
Mems Congress has passed by a vote
Of 273 to 81 resolution supporting the
constituent assembly and calling upon
the Peoples Commissioners to agree
with the majority with a view to the
formation of a government responsible
to the assembly.
From Moscow it is reported that
many persons were wounded and others
killed as the result of the red guard
firing On demonstrators there in favor
to the Constituent Assembly.
The Japanese Embassy here in an
official statement made denial of the re-
ports that Japanese forces had been
landed at VladivostOk.
Japan is a sincere friend Of Rus
sia," says the embassy statement, "and
does not entertain the least intention
of interfering in the internal affairs OF
the Russian people. The presence Of
a Japanese cruiser at VladivostOk has
no connection whatever with the pres
ent situation in Russia"
Regarding the peace negotiations at
Brest-Litoysk, Count Czernin, the Aus
tro-Hungarian foreign minister, is
quoted here in an interview as declar-
ing that if peace did not result from
the negotiations it would not be "be-
cause of any intentions of ours in re-
gard to conquest.
II am not going back upon what l
have already stated to be the Dual
Monarchy's peace program" added
Count Czernin.

neither cessions of territory nor war
indemnities. We only desire to see
friendly, neighborly relations establish
ed on safe principles relations which
will be both lasting and based upon
mutual confidence"
