KREMLIN
rs REQUIsITIONED
Many of Archives Have
Been Sent To Nijni-Nov-
gorod For Safety

Moscow, Thursday. March Ia
Moscow has again become the official
capital Cf Russia, after 200 years.
Lenine and virtually all the gov
ernmental commissioners except
Leon Trotzky, arrived here tonight
and officially opened the various
ministries today, preparatory to the
session of the All l-Russian congress
on March il. Many of the buildings
in the ancient kremlin, the leading
hotels and other buildings were
requisitioned to accommodate the
government officials. The subordin-
ate employees have been in process of
transfer for weeks. as have the gov
ernment archives, but today the first
anniversary of the Russian revolu-
ton. marks the actual transfer Of the
new government and is being cele-
brated as a national holiday.
Some of the bureaus and many of
the archives have been placed at
Mini Hovgorod, but most of the
ministries are in Moscow, where
they will remain indefinitely, unless
the German invasion should render a
further retreat necessary. Trotzky
remained at the head Of the Council
of Commissioners for the Petrograd
commune which has organized its
own ministries Of the army, navy,
finance and supplies.
The Bolsheviki government is con-
ceded by observers here to have
demonstrated it's power by moving to
Moscow, a step contemplated by
Kerensky when he was premier, but
never attempted by him. The Petro-
grad telegraph agency and all the
other strictly national bureaus ac-
companied the government here.

SOVIETS ACCEPT THE TERMS
DICTATED AT BREST-LITOVSK
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SUMMARY OF WAR

From Russia today comes news ot
a vote by delegates 60 the All Rus
sian congress of sovieta at Moscow
overwhelmingly in favor Of ratifyina
the peace treaty dictated by Ger
many TO the Russian delegates at
Brest- -LitoVsk.
The wording Of the msasrs ad-
vices leaves the significance of the
ballot somewhat in doubt but it ap-
pears probable that the vote Of 453
TO 30 recorded was cast by the mem =
bers Of the majority, or BolsheVikr
party, in a caucus.
If this is the fact the final dseis-
ion on the ratification of the treaty
had not yet been taken when the
Dispatch was filed yesterday. The
forecast in Moscow dispatches OF
mate ratification seemed probable,
and the BoIshevik vote would indi-
cate an extremely strong current
running in that direction.
