RUSSIANS ADVISED
TO IGNORE RUMORS
Bolshevik Government Procla-
nation Disclaims Deeds Ac-
credited to Soldiers.

Petrograd, Jan. 20.--The bolshevik
government has issued proclamation
to the people of Petrograd saying in
part:
Enemies of the people spread
the report that revolutionary
workmen and soldiers have fired
on a peaceful labor demonstration.
This is done for the purpose OF
sowing trouble in the ranks of the
workers, causing excesses and in
citing against the revolutionary
leaders. 1t has been proved that
the authors of these rumors fred
at sailors, soldiers and workmen
who are keeping order in the city.
The central executive has opened
a searching inquiry and the cul-
prits will be tried by revolutions
ary tribunals
The proclamation concludes by ad-
vising the people to ignore the ru-
mors and remain calm and by assur-
ing them that order Is being main
tanned by sailors, soldiers and work.
men.

tarianism had had its day and was
incompatible with the tasks before
socialism and that only such institu-
tions as the workmen's and soldiers
councils were able to overcome the
opposition of the rich classes and cre-
ate new socialist state.
Would be Backward Step.
Every REFUSAL" 1t adds, ITO recog-
nize the authority of the republican
workmens and soldiers councils and
to place in the hands of the constit-
uent assembly and the bourgeois the
liberty which had been won would be
q step backwards and toward bank
ruptcy of the workmen's and peas
ants revolution.
"The constituent assembly opened
on Jan. IS, and for known reasons
gave majority to the social revo-
luaonists of the right--the party of
Kerensky, Tchernoff and Avksentier.
1t is comprehensive that this faction
refused to debate the just and clear
program of the central executive com
mittee of the congress of workmen's
and soldiers delegates, and to recog-
nize a declaration of the rights of ex-
plotted working classes, as well as the
revolution of November and the au-
thority of the workmens and SOL
diers' council"
Fighting Against Council.
This, the decree says, made a breach
in the assembly and the departure OF
the boshevili and social revolution
lists of the left inevitable. The social
revolutionists of the right, it says, are
fighting openly against the authority
of the workmen's and soldiers coun-
ellis and supporting the exploiters OF
labor and If this party only remained
it might play the role of leading a
bourgeois counter revolution. The
decree concludes:
"The central executive committee
therefore orders the constituent as
dissolved"

QUESTION THAT RANKLES
Is, "WH0 is TO DO IT?"

London, Jan. 21.--The constituent
assembly, the Petrograd correspon-
dence of the Daily News says, had
nothing of the character of a serious
meeting of patriots prepared to work
together for the creation of a new
Russia. There is no essential differ
ence between the aims of the social
revolutionists and the bolsheviki, their
opposition being merely personal. The
correspondent adds:
Russia, judging from Fridays
meeting, is fairly unanimous regord-
ing what it wants. The question is
less what is to be done than who is
to do it."

ASSOCIATED Press Review.)

(Assooiated Press Review.)
Russia's constituent assembly had
been in existence only a few hours
before it was dissolved early Satur-
day by the executive committee of tho
congress of workmen's and soldiers
delegates. It is reported it will be
succeeded by the workmen's and SOL
diers' congress, which has been sup
porting the Lenine government.
Dissolution came after the bolshe-
wiki adherents had been defeated in
attempts to gain control of the assem-
bly,. Bolshevik troops now guard the
deserted assembly meeting place and
Premier Lenine announces he will not
permit the delegates to reassemble.
Whether the social revolutionist ma
jority will submit to the bolshevik
orders without protest is not yet clear.
With the PAN Germans in the polit-
ical ascendency in Germany there are
serious strikes in Austria. More than
100000 workmen have quit work in
the vicinity of Vienna as a protest
against Germanism and in favor of
peace. The Vienna correspondent of
one German newspaper says the Aus
trian strike movement demands speedy
peace with Russia and has grown too
