PIN HOPES FOR
 WORLD PEACE IN
 GERMAN REVOLT

Petrograd, Jan. S1. (DelayeD. - Foreign Minister Trotzky's speech be- fore the Pan-Soviet Congress was gen. erally regarded today as foreshadow- ing a separate peace between Russia and Germany unless revolutionary upheaval occurs in the Central Elm pires.
 The press was authoritatively in formed that the Russian policy is to j 4prolong the negotiations at Brest-Li- tcvsk as long as possible, in order to draw out new German propositions and also in order to stir up a revolu- ton in Austria
 Trotzky and his colleagues hope to compel a modification of the German terms and possibly to obtain the en- trance of the Entente Allies into the negotiations. The declaration that a separate peace would be signed only as a last resort was made emphatical- ly.
 eve have done our best for the cause of democratic peace," was i Trotzky's report to the Pan-Soviet meeting. "Our hands are clean. Our obligations to other peoples have been met. If we are compelled to :, sign separate peace there is not a . single honest Entente worker who can - blame us."
 The Pravada printed a. report that a separate peace agreement was con cluded between the Central Powers and Rumania a month ago. Ruma- mia, it was stated, was granted ''com- pensationS'' in Bessarabia- "A hard fight for peace remains said the Government telegraph bu' reau.

Jimmy Barry. the Chicago 1rishman, who later. became bantamweight champion of the world. Jimmy had had some experience as an amateur before his professional career, at the age of twenty-one. In 1894, Barry defeated Jimmy German at New Or leans and Caspar Leon at Lamont, H., and was recognized as bantam chief, George Dixon having outgrown that division. Barry defended his title against all corners until 1898, when he retired undefeated, although Cas- par Leon had fought him to a draw four times, and Harry Lewis, Young Corbett, George Siddons, Sammy Kel- ly and others had also got draw de- cisions with Barry. Jimmy, Jack McAuliffe and Mike Donovan were the only modern boxers to quit the ring and relinquish their titles with out being defeated.

BOARDING
 IN ELM CITY IS
 BAREO BY BOARD

Hartford, Feb. Ion top of the re- cent wheat flour ruling from Wash ington and the accompanying warn ing against hoarding in private fam flies, the United States Food Admin istration today uncovered in New Ha- ven systematic boarding of serious dimensions. The local Federal Food Administrator in New Haven, Thomas W. Farnam, has received the assur- ance of the wholesaler involved that his part in the hoarding of 96-ppund sacks of four, to the etxent of 10 to 20 sacks in some cases, was due to ig norance of the provisions of the food control act and the wholesaler has indicated a willingness to cooperate with the new regulations which pro vide that with every hundred pounds of wheat flour sold, the purchaser must take at least 25 pounds of one of the wheat substitutes such as corn meal or barley.
 When confronted with the evidence that he had delivered to one family eight 9S-pound sacks of four, all with in a. few days, the wholesaler not only admitted he facts but produced a list or elSht oLner ldInllIeS, dll III LHe TOT eigh section of New Haven, who had bought from four to ten sacks of flour within the last ten days. The whole saler was busy today collecting all the delivered sacks, except one each to a. family, and in each case returned the purchase price.
 In this instance no federal prosecu-
 tions of the private individuals in-
 volved is contemplated because it is
 believed they were guilty of hoarding
 without full knowledge of the law in
 the case but the food administrator
 made it clear today that hereafter

City Grocery Business
 Relies On Canned Goods

~Here is an astonishing fact" writes Harry S. Stabler in Every body's for January, ''which the proper authorities will verify for you:
 Thirty per cent, of the business of the wholesale grocers of the entire country is in canned goods. In the wholesale houses of New York, Chi cago, Philadelphia and other large cities, foods make up forty per cent. of their business. The fact is that, if you were to take the tin cans out of any city of the first or second class, the inhabitants would begin to starve almost at once. That means, of course, that those cities could not have grown 50 large without food conserved in tins''
