WHY ROLSHEVIKI
FAILED IN SIBERIA
Cooperative Unions Formed by Provi,
sional Government Assisted Cause
of Czecho- Slovaks.

TOXIC. Sept. 20 Correspondence of
the Associated Press Failure of the
Bolsheviki to control Siberia was part
ly due TO the fact that the leaders of the
provisional Siberian government have
organized cooperative unions" through
out the country which have welded the
people into one great family, hostile
alike to the Establishments of radicalism
and of the Germans.
Twenty nine of the bodies were formed
in villages and counties shortly after
the beginning of the revolution, accord
ing to Already Petroff deputy minister
of foreign affairs OF autonomous Siberia
now in Toxic, and number about 100000
conservative socialists, democrats and
army officers of the former regime living
| in the region between Ural and Irkutsk
| These organizations are secret and, while
each is separate and independent entity
all are united for mutual benefit for the
maintenance of the provisional govern
ment, financing and the transaction OF
| business.
Mr. Petroff declared it was owing tc
the assistance of these societies in pro
viding arms, munitions. food and cloth
ing that the Czecho- Slovaks have beer
so successful against the Lenine Trotzky
troops. The people of Siberia, he said
were anxious when he left Siberia to see
the country along the railway cleared o.
the Bolsheviki and order and tranquility
restored by the allies.
Contrary to inspired German reports
Mr.. Petroff stated, there is only one gov
eminent in Siberia the provisional gov
eminent for autonomous Siberia. Thu
government, he said, is supported by tn,
cooperative unions" which have organ
lied self determined governments in va
rious parts of the country and these ar,
now co-ordinated.

QUOTA
NOT YET FILLED
Time for Raising Allotment of Volun-
teers as Alternative to Conscrip-
ton About Over.

DUBLIN. Sept. % Correspondence of
the Associated Press --Ireland soon may
become patchwork quilt" of conscrip-
ton districts and non-conscription dis
tricts, according to members of the Irish
recruiting council, whose allotted time
for raising $4,000 volunteers as an al
tentative to CONSUMPTION, is drawing to
close, with the allotment as yet I'M
filled.
The council, which is composed of five
Irishmen, representing all parties, has
divided the country into ten districts,
with quota for each and has arranged
with the government that in districts
which fill their quotas, CONSUMPTION will
not be applied. even though the total of
volunteers falls below the required 50,-
900 men.
1t is generally predicted that some of
the districts will fall far short of their
quotas. And there, CONSUMPTION is eX-
pected to be inaugurated, even at the
cost of resistance.
The objection of may young lrishmen
to entering the army, and the traditional
Irish hostility to the war office is being
met by recruiting agents by pointing out
the special attractions of the Royal Air
force. This service is not under control
of the war office, and it has the added
advantage of having many non fighting
positions.
Political feeling runs high, however
and the class .of young men, who make
| the best soldiers, the missile troops,
are not volunteering in large numbers.
Two or three members of the Irisl
Parliamentary party have identified
themselves with the recruiting campaign
but the party as whole, has held aloof
