COOPERATIVE UNIONS

TOKIO.-Failure of the bolsheviki
TO control Siberia was partly due to
the fact that the leaders of the pro-
visional Siberian government have
organized cooperative unions
throughout the country which have
welded the people into one great
family. hostile alike to the blandish-
ments Of radicalism and of the Ger
mans.
Twenty-Five Of these bodies were
formed in villages and counties
shortly after the beginning Of the
revolution, according to Already

affairs of autonomous Siberia, now

conservative socialists, democrats
and army officers Of the former
regime living in the region between
Ural and Irkutsk. These organiza-
tons are secret and, while each is
separate and independent entity.
all are united for mutual benefit for
the maintenance of the provisional
government. financing and the
transaction Of business.
