PLANNING NEW ARMY.
BoIshevikis Not TO Attsmpt to RehabiI
itate Old Military ORGANIZATIONS.

itate Old Military Organizations.
London, Jan. 11.-Confrming previ-
GUS reports that the bolsheviki are
preparing to re-establish the fighting
power OF the army against a possible
final break in the negotiations with the
central powers, the Petrograd corre-
spondent Of the Daily News says they
are not attempting to reanimate the
old, worn-out army, but to create a
new and much smaller one.
Concerning this new army Trotzky
Is reported to have said: 1T will wage
not war but revolution. It's front
trenches will be barricades against op-
preston"
The bolsheviki doubt whether the
German soldiers will advance. but If
they do and take more territory, they
will be no nearer an end of the war.
The correspondent says that the
greatest difficulties Of the bolsheviki
in these preparations are transporta-
tion and supply. of which the former
Is the less hopeful question.
Ensign Kreleynko, the bolsheviki
commander-in -chief, Is reported to be
organizing a volunteer army, and has
ordered all OlIlCerS TO return 10 Lno
posts they held before the bolshevik
revolution.
Aims Of Don Cossaeks.
A majority of the Cossacks and the
population Of the Don districts are
grouping themselves around the Don
military government under General
Kaledines, according to a special dis
patch from Petrograd, tending to give
an authorized account Of conditions in
south Russia. General Kaledines' prin-
cipal aim is not to fight the bolsheviki
but to consolidate democratic-repub-
lican power Of the Don district.
General Alexieff, former Russian
commander chief, around whom has
gathered corps Of some $4,000 officers.
has considered it necessary to organize
a struggle against the bolshevik on
an all-Russian plan and to create in
Russia moderate liberal regime. Mon
archial principles are said to be very
strong among Alexieff's group.
General Kaledines and his party op-
posed General Alexieff in his desire to
utilize the Don government against the
bolsheviki, and is willing to include in
the Don government representatives
all the democratic organizations, in Or
der to end civil war.

powers have withdrawn their peace
terms made public at the Brest-Litovsk
conference, Dec. 25, 1t was announced
by DR.. Won Kuehlmann. the German
foreign secretary, in his speech at the
Brest- -Litovsk conference with the Rus
SLAMS yesterday.
Count Czernin, the Austro- Hungarian
minister at a full sitting Of the peace
conference on Thursday, said that as
Russias allies had not replied to the
: Invitation to participate in the nego-
tiation, it was now q question Of q
separate peace between Russia and the
central powers.
He gave reasons for not wishing to
transfer the negotiations to neutral ter
ritory, and said if the Russians were
animated with the same intentions as
the central powers. the result OF the
negotiations would be satisfactory.
DIR. Won Kuehlmann said he consid
cred that the difficulties which had
interrupted the previous negotiations
were not sufficient to justify the fail
ure Of the peace work and presumably
aresumption Of hostilities.
Refuses to Transfer Conference.
He said it was the fixed determine
ton Of the Genital powers not to con-
duct elsewhere the negotiations begun
at Brest-Litovsk.
"A Brest-Litovsk dispatch giving an
account Of the session yesterday says
1t was opened at II O'clock all the
delegations participating. Talaat Pasha,
the Turkish grand vizier, called the
meeting to order and turned over the
chair to DR.. Won Kuehlmann, who said:
''Inasmuch as changes have occurred
in the composition Of some Of the dele
cations 1t will not be out Of place to
give a short survey of the history OF
the negotiations"
Ate: &c: . lengthy review Of the negotia-
tions he said he hoped they would
lead to a salutary result. His hope
was based on the expression Of tho
Russian delegations Of the Russian peo-
pies wish for lasting peace. He
continued:
II consider that the difficulties met
with up to the time the meetings were
interrupted were not great enough to
cause failure Of the peace work and
resumption Of war in the east.

Owing to the non acceptance by ali

FOURTH OF JULY FITTINGLY
OBSERVED

The ever glorious Fourth was most
fittingly and appropriately observed
yesterday upon plan suggested by
President Wilson who asked the
people to cooperate with the foreign
ers in the country in celebrating In
dependence Day.
The aim of those having charge of
the affair was to unite with the people
of foreign birth in the celebration of
the day and make it a real American
holiday. They were given the hearty
and unanimous support of organized
labor and the fraternal and civic or
ganizations of the city, and huge
success was the result. The parade
was one of the finest ever witnessed
in Newark; the speeches, while brief,
were pithy and to the point and were
received with cheers and applause by
the huge audience assembled at the
reviewing stand on the south court
house steps.
One of the features of the parade
was the first appearance Of a newly
organized society of the Italians Of
the city. The new society has head
quarters in Race street and the Of
fcers are Camello Calagaro, Carmen
Rizzo, Tony Trubiano.

FOOD ADVANCED SO PER CENT
IN PAST FIVE YEARS
COrnmeal is 145 Per Cent Higher and
the Lowest Increase is
33 Per Cent

The Monthly Review, issued by the
U. S. Bureau of Labor, discloses the
startling fact that the average in
crease in the cost Of food during the
past five years is SO per cent. Corn
meal, the article which the food ad
ministration has urged the public to
substitute for wheat, has made a
greater advance than any other COM
modify listed, namely 145 per cent.
Prices of food, as a whole advanced
16 per cent in the year from March
Is, 1917, to March Is, 1918.
In this one year period, the only
decline in price is that of potatoes.
This article decreased 81 per cent.
Corn meal shows the greatest in
crease or rs per cent. Sugar shows
the least increase, or per cent.
The increases in the prices of the
other articles range from IA per cent
to AZ per cent and are in detail as
follows: Rib roast, IA per cent; flour
anu lllOlIl oCCch, IL pei CcIC SoCllJ
bread, II per cent; butter 10 per cent;
round steak, 20 per cent; pork chops,
II per cent; milk, 35 per cent; lard,
80 per cent; and bacon, AT per cent.
Food as a whole was SO per cent
higher in March, 1918, than in the
same month in 1913. In this 5-year
period, every article increased in price
33 per cent and over. Flour was just
twice as high in March, 1918, as in
March, 1913. Lard increased 112 per
cent and corn meal, 145 per cent. The
increase in only four articles was less
than so per cent. Eleven articles in
creased over so per cent, and three of
these increased 100 per cent and over.
The percentages of increases in detail
for this 5-year period are as follows:
Corn meal, 145 per cent; lard, 112 per
cent; flour, 100 per cent; bacon, 81
per cent; ham and sugar, 60 per cent;
bread, 68 per cent; pOtaotes, 81 per
cent; milk, 81 per cent; round steak,
40 per cent; rib roast, 38 per cent;
sirloin steak, 81 per cent; and butter,
33 per cent.

the statement is made that for most
commodities the rise in prices is

The Miners Not to Blame
WHAT is THE ANSWER TO THE
FUEL ENIGMA?
Operate the Mines and Furnish Cars
and the Miners Will do Their
Full Share to Avert the
Threatened Shortage

Indianapolis. - The United Mine
Workers Journal, in calling attention
to the seriousness of the fuel PROPOSE
tion, charges that the miners are not
responsible for the threatened short
age, and says:
at would seem that since the fuel
administration and everybody else
with authority or knowledge of the
situation has issued warning after
warning about the coal shortage next
winter, the people would begin to re-
alize they are face to face with a
serious condition. But the fuel ad-
ministration finds it necessary to re-
mind the people of this fact day
after day.
"Whatever may be the reason for
this situation, it can not be charged
that the coal miners are at fault.
They want to work full time. Idle
ness of mines and short production
is not their fault.
"If the mines are operated, and if
a sufficient car supply is furnished,
the miners will do their full part.
Miners can not dig coal when mines
are closed down. They can not pro-
duce the maximum tonnage when
there is only minimum car supply.
The fuel administration now esti-
mates that 8O,O0O,00O tons more coal
will be required in this country in the
1918-1919 year than was produced in
the previous year, and it says the de-
mand may even be greater than that
figure.
"The total output last year was only
50,000,00O tons larger than in the
year before.
"All of this means that those in
dustries that are not engaged in ac-
tual war work will suffer. War needs
will come first.
at is to be hoped that conditions
may be improved so that the miners
may work full time and produce the
coal to keep all industries in opera
tion and keep the homes warm. If
not, then the only answer, as the
fuel administration says, will be
found in conservation. 1t will mean
that every coal consumer, large and
small, must practice economy and
make his coal go as far as possible.
"This will work hardship to many
concerns and families who will be re-
quired to get along with less steam
and less heat.
"But it is not the fault of the
miners"

SEARS-ROEBUCK co.
Federal Trade Commission Orders
Firm to Cease Certain Methods
Employed in Competition
and Misrepresentation

| Washington. - Sears, Roebuck &
Co., Chicago, have been ordered by
the Federal Trade Commission to
cease certain methods of competition.
Chief of the complaints by the COM
mission-which were all admitted by
the corporation-was the practice of
advertising sugar for sale at prices
less than it's competitors.
The corporation "owned up" to the
fact that during the latter half of
1915 it received $780,000 from the
sale of sugar, but that the sales were
in reality made at loss of $196,OOO,
although sugar was included in "com-
bination sales" on which profit was
made. 1t also was admitted by the
company that advertisements assert
ing that it could sell sugar at from
&c to 4c a pound because of ability to
make large purchases and move
stock quickly were false, inasmuch
as all of those sales were made be-
low cost.
The practices ordered stopped by
the commission We're:
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements of sugar for sale
wherein it is falsely represented that
the company is able to sell sugar at
lower price than competitors.
Selling or offering to sell sugar
below cost.
Circulating catalogues containing
unjust representation to the effect
that its competitors do not deal hon
estly or fairly with their customers.
Circulating false advertisements
asserting that the company sends a
special representative to Japan who
personally goes into the tea gardens
of that country and practically su-
pervises the picking of tea.

OHIO ELECTRIC WANTS SIX
CENT FARE

The grasping, grab-all policy of the
Ohio Electric Railway was again dis
played on Monday evening when its
general manager, H. G. Gilpin, in an
oily communication asks the city
council to pass an ordinance en-
powering the company to charge
6 cent fare on city cars operated in
Newark. The claim that the advent
of the automobile has greatly re-
duced the number of passengers car
ried is so palpably false that no
weight should be given it; neither
should the equally ridiculous state
ment that increase in cost of labor
necessitates a raise in fares. Every
one in Newark knows full we'll that
more passengers are carried on city
cars now than at any time before
the use of the automobile became
general, and the majority of people
believe that the business done at the
present cent fare should be more
than sufficient to pay the wage scale
now in force, which is something less
than the city pays day laborers. We
are glad to be able to state that the
communication did not meet with the
approval of our city dads, and after
some discussion it was referred to the
Law Committee.

TO CONTROL STOCK YARDS

Washington.-The government will
take over control of the meat supply
of the United States on July 25, under
proclamation by President Wilson.
By that date all owners of stock
yards will be required to obtain Ii
censes from the department of agri-
culture, under provisions of the food
control act of last August. The sec
retary of agriculture thereby is given
vital control of the yards to the end
of conserving the food supply and
directing it's distribution. Livestock
commission men are also required to
obtain licenses and the control will
exert it's influence over all livestock
dealers.
The president issued his proclama-
tion under power granted him by
congress last August to control dis
tribution of food products in the in
terest of national security and de-
fense The move is a part of the
plan to get greater cooperation be-
tween livestock raisers, the packers
and the food administration.
