 It was expected that General March would have announced yesterday something with respect to the landing of American troops at Archangel and their future operations. He was de- tained. however, at the Capitol and did not hold his usual Wednesday conference with the press.
 The State Department, however, threw a strong light on the success of the military operations in Russia. It was announced that courier had arrived at Samara from Moscow, who gave an account of the utter desola- ton of things there, the lack of gov ernment and the fearful misrule of the Bolshevik authorities. The courier reported that the Germans were evac- uating the Baltic provinces This is taken to indicate that the Germans are anticipating the success of the Allied and American forces descend ing from Archangel and the Japanese and other troops moving along the trans-Siberian railroad to meet in the | Orenberg province.
 War Department officials are not disturbed over the report that Ger many is utilizing or will endeavor to utilize Bulgars on the western front | They point out that the progress o1 the British and French in Macedonia will have the offset of keping all but a few Bulgarians strictly at home.

This ship ment came put up in bushel baskets and is being offered to retailers at $2 a basket of IA quarts capacity. AS the peach crop is rapidly coming to close, this may be the last chance for consumers to. get good peaches al reasonable price.
 The effect of the recent heavy rains in California has already been felt on the malaga grape market.
 Grapes selling a week ago at $1.75- $40 for "A pounds are now costing J package, and reports indicate pros poets of another jump in prices very soon. At these prices, grapes are costing retailers g 1-2-10c a pound but are still one of the best buys on the fruit market for the Bridgeport housewife. Receipts on local grapes have been very light for the last few days but warmer weather will prob ably hasten the ripening of the crop Consumers are warned that this week will undoubtedly see the finish l of the Bartlett pear season and house wives contemplating a supply should immediatelyp order from their groc- ! CTS.

| LABOR DEMAND MUCH GREATER
 THAN SUPPLY
Rea5on for Campaign to Enlist Women Explained
 by A. W. Burritt Today.
FACTORIES READY (
 FOR WOMEN WORKERS
More Places Ready Than There Are Women to Fill
 at Making Munitions.

'fThere is greater demand for women to work in Bridgeport fac tories than there is available supply, and the demand is steadily increas- ing" said A. W. Burritt, director of the United States Employment Ser vice in Bridgeport, in an interview today.
 Tt is because of this great demand for women, and the very great inn portance of the work that the wom- en are wanted for, that the Employ ment Service, with the cooperation of the War Department, has under taken the campaign for woman labor that is now under way in this city.
 Many manufacturers are ready tC take on more women employees, and many have told us that as soon as there is a sufficient number of pros- poets they will equip their plants for the employment of women.
 with so many men gone to the army and navy, and with the pros- poets of moro to go soon, it must be obvious to everybody that the army and navy cannot be supplied with munitions unless the places of the men in the factories are filled. As there are not enough men to fill them, we must look. to the women, just as other countries that have been a: war longer than we have been have turned to their women. And these countries found that the women were ready to serve the flag just as ardent Iy as the men, and we know what the result has been.
 "Now the United States calls on its women to back up the men Who are

fighting Germany in France. It ca1lg them from their quiet homes, sum- moning women who never worked be- fore, and it is confident that the women will not fail. It is calling them to the munitions factories. It does not ask them to replace men, but to add their labor to the supply of male labor. It asks them to help in the most practical way.
 Figures published recently show that fully five million women are working in England, the greater number of them women who never worked before the war, but who have made it possible for Great Britain to maintain her fleet and her army at high efficiency and hold back the Hun, yes, drive him back. These women have done noble work, work that will live in history.
 Hundreds of thousands of won1- en are working in France, thousands of them are mending the clothes of American soldiers, doing work for us that we cannot do ourselves because the work must be done there, and we are 5000 miles away
 But there is a tremendous amount of work to be done right here at home, and the women are needed to do it. In few days the Four Minute Women of this city will make a can vass of every house, and will ask the women if they are willing to do essential work. The cards that will be filled out will be filed in the United States Employment service, and when the demands, for help come we will notify the women who have stated their willingness to work, and through them we hope to be able to maintain a steady flow of munitions to the men who are in France. We need every woman who is not em- ployed; we need her very much, in. deed" -.

HEAR
 CALL TO HELP IN MUNITION MAKING
Number in City Offer Ser vices to U. S.. Employment
 Bureau to Win War.

The ministers of Bridgeport are go- ing to- work in the factories. They have heard the call the government is sending out to the women, and they feel that if the women must give up part of their time to make munitions, there is no reason why the ministers should not give up part of theirs, too.
 Rev. Wm. Horace Day, pastor of the United Congregational church, is one of the clergy1nep who is going to help make guns or ammunition for the boys across the sea to use in re- polling the Hun. Dr. Day is a busy man, but he is willing to give up four hours a day four days a week, or two whole days in a munitions plant.
 Rev. s. G. Foster, pastor of the Baptist church, Rev. H. s. Brown of Olivet church, Rev. R. H. White of the West End Congregational church, Rev. A. J. Martin of Grace Methodist church, Rev. F. c. Carpenter of Strat- ford Methodist church, Rev. A. F. | Campbell of the Washington Park

 church, Rev. Canio Cerreta of the | Italian Congregational church and
 Rev. J. F. Rees of Kings Highway Congregational church are among
 those who have signifed their inten-
 tion of going to work in the factories | A complete list of the ministers and the hours they are willing to work
