married. as follows:
Rumors OF the overthrow OF the BoI.
shevik Government are unfounded. They
probably are due to the fact that the
Soviet administration contemplatcs con.
solidatng in a moderate direction.
Leon Trotzky has developed into an
advocate of sort OF general compul.
sorry servic1. including the workers and
peasants.
The committee OF all Russian &oviets
In its congress in Moscow agreed to these
proposals, which. however, still! are be-
ing resisted by the proietariat at large,
Trotzky now is accused OF the same
treason of which he himself formerly
accused kerensky.
The Peoples Commissioners are being
compelled to fight the anarchists in tine
streets, just as Kerensky's Government
had to fight tho Bolsheviki in the rcvo-
luton Of last July, Next to the estab-

$500, 100000 PAY RAISE.
McAdoo Favsrs Hsge Increase fol
Rail Men.

wAsHINoroN. May 7.-Director-Gen-
erla McAdoo will announce soon his de-
cision on recommendations OF the Rail-
road Wage Commission. which were said
in well informed quarters to-day to pro-
pose ah average 20 per cent. advance in
pay for all classes OF railroad employees.
II Mr.. McAdoo follows the suggestions
Of the commission approximately $780,
000, 900 will be added to the payrolls OF
the nations railroads.
Strong pressure Is said to have been
brought to bear on the Director-General
to modify some Of the commissions rec
concentrations. especially affecting the
four great brotherhoods. Mr.. McAdoo
10 not bound to follow the advice OF the
commission and can increase or reduce
their recomme ndations as he sees nt
The commission has followed its an
rounced policy Of giving the highest paid
unions the lowest rate Of advance, hold
ing that relief is needed most by the
men who have been barely making ends
meet or perhaps going in debt on the
wages they received.
Apparently none OF the comm!ssions 8
recoInme ndations has met the requests
OF the unions themselves, which ranged
as high as 40. so and so per cent.
Aside from the wage question the
commission has made little effort to take
up all the grievances presented to it. on
the ground that it was appointed pr!ma-
rily to consider only questions OF pay.
The eight hour day. however. involving
large sums. was given close attention be-
cause Of the fact that some classes OF
employees now work on such basis
while most OF them do not.
A majority Of the commission Is said
10 have felt that the eight hour day
should not be made universal for rail-
road employees while tive war Is In prog.
ress. fearing to upset transportation
and necessitate the expenditure OF large
sums In addition to the increases sug-
gested. 1t Is said the commission has
urged that after the war the eight hour
day he extended and made the basis
OF employment Of all classes OF railroad
workers

From Shnbone Alley to Sheridan

Baker, sadly, when he got back to
Polly's and began to make ready for

who have made a winter Coney Island

Others suggested that part of the
trouble. at least, lay with the police.
The whole attitude of the police, said
they, was wrong. Mais oui! The police,
too, have lived. But they do not under
stand. The quality of fine discrimina-
ton is not theirs. They have no phiIos.
ophy above that Of cunning, no appre-
citation of the picturesque, no sense of
humor.
Now, it is matter Of fact that until
the last year Greenwich Village has
kept pretty closely to itself. Five years
ago Polly Holiday had the field alone.
When the business had grown to such
proportions that Polly no longer could
keep her accounts on the backs of en-
velopes George Baker devised "sys-

straight from '3tavard to write for the
