RESIST GERMANS
 TAKING GRAIN
 FROM PEASANTS

Moscow, April 4.-(By the Associ- ated Press)-A press dispatch from I<iev says the Ukranian Rada Iras passed a resolution favoring the con- tinuation of military operations against the government of the soldiers and workmens deputies, although the president of the Rada, Prof. Grus- hevski, urged that peace be concluded because of widespread dissatisfaction among the peasonts with the Radas policy.
 Repeated acquisitions of grain by the Germans are resisted violently by the peasants. One village was de- stroyed by artillery because it's inhab- itants offered armed opposition to a third requsition-
 The Rada passed the resolution as a German military representative, Col. Won Kulberg, made an address point ing out the successes of the German and Ukrainian troops, saying that the capture of Kharkov and Yekaterinslav was imminent, and giving assurance of Germanys support in the future against the Bolsheviki.
 On being asked about the situation in Ukraine, Major Gen. Bronch Bruje- witch, secretary of state, denied that Russia was warning with the Rada. He said it was purely civil war be- tween the Bourgeoise government and the Ukrainian Bolsheviki, who have formed a government of their own.
 The Bolshevik foreign minister, M Tchitcherin, has made protest against the invasion by German and Ukrainian troops of Kursk province ; which is indisputable Russian terri | tory.

SPEEDING UP THE
 STEEL FOR SHIPS

Washington, April 5-Sufficient steel for the building program of the Emergency Fleet Corporation of the United States Shipping Board is to be provided at all costs in view of the charges that there has been delay as a result of a lack of coordination of effort.
 This much was made evident today following an exchange of views by of ficials of the Shipping Board, the War Industries Board, and other legisla- tive and administrative bodies of the government. Coincidentally, orders went out by telephone to all steel mills to meet the situation and give preference to Emergency Fleet Cor poratlon orders.
 How the so-called nonessential in- dustries which have asked for steel will fare under these conditions Is another question. It was said that the mills are voluntarily refusing to deliver steel to these industries, and are giving practically their entire output to government needs. The steel rejected by the government will be available to the other industries for some time.
 Limitations made before the Senate Commerce Committee that shfpbuiId- ing was being seriously delayed serv- ed to bring the matter to the front again when representations were made before the Requirements Divis- ion of the War Industries Board, and reports were put in circulation that an appeal might be made to Presi- dent Wilson. The War Industries Board countered with the statement that for three months enough stee had been shipped from the mills tc carry on shipbuilding program o 550,O00 tons a month, and if there l had been delay it was caused by i'm. | proper allocation of the orders, tht | general hauls from the mills to ia bricating planse and shipyards. These | faults, 1t was said, were blameabIt upon conditions before the presen
 Shipping Board regime went into of l fee.

Delay in ShipwOrk
 Laid to Mccormick

Washington, April 5-William Dem man, former chairman of the shipping board, testifying today at the Senate Commerce committee at his own re- quest, placed the delay in building con- struction at the Hog Island ship yard on H. D. H. Connick, engineer for the American International Ship Building Co.,, who, he said, tried to get the shipping board to enter a contract by which the corporation would re- ceive a fee of from $12,00O,00O to $l5,000,000.-
 Denman said he and his associates on the shipping board believed the fee too large and delayed signing the contract.

 TO U. s. AVIATORS

London, April "A tribute to American aviators with the British army in France, who are numerous and always brilliant" is paid by the correspondent of the Daily News. He says American aviation mechanics also have rendered splendid aid.

On one sector of the battle front as many as 300 machines are in the air at one time. The use of machine guns on enemy troops guns and transports by low flying machines, he adds, has been carried to point far beyond anything in previous experience.

The purpose of Section II of the
above Order is to prohibit dealers in
intoxicating liquors, wholesalers and
retailers, including brewers, from
sending Intoxicating liquors into dry
territory. If they refrain from doing
SO. the territory will be dry. The eff
feet of introducing intoxicating IL
quors into dry territory is to under
mine the County Option law, and the
will OF the people expressed at the

that law. 1t is thought that no per-
son engaged in the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors will attempt to infringe
the provisions OF this Order. and
particularly with the knowledge and
information that detection of viola
ton on his or its part will result in
most drastic action by the Commits
sion to compel respect for its Order.
No manufacturer or dealer in in
toxicating liquors violating the pro-
vision Of Section III of the above Or
der. will have any right to complain
