has been forced upon them in order
to conserve food.
The British narrator says that
the bolshevik strength in Petro-
grad, as we'll as in Moscow, has
increased since the attempts on
Lenine's life and the advances in
the Volga region, largely because
many Russian liberals believe that
they must choose between the boil
. sheviki and the extreme reaction
aries, as none of the faction leaders
in the center show strength.
Maxim Gorky has joined the boil
shevki and has accepted a position
in the Department of Education,
Many others who were at first op-'
posed to the bolsheviki are taking
similar action.
The, petrograd commune recently
required householdArs to give over
their blankets, presumably for the
army, under heavy penalty, and
great scandal has developed through
the discovery of sailors of train
load of blankets destined for Ger
many.
In spite of the widespread DESC
lation the commune is supporting
the National Opera, the Ballet and
the theaters, giving free perform
ances to soldiers, sailors and school
children.
BY Associated Press.
Archangel, Nov. 23-The Ameri-
can and entente troops have en-
countered strong opposition beth on
the Vologda-Archangel railway and
on the Dvina river. Owing to the
swampy condition of the terrain it
ha. been necessary to con6ne oper-
: atoms I'd the waterway and the
railway. As the upper part of the
sriver is deeper than at its mouth
the bolsheviki craft, equipped with
large guns, have been Better able
to maneuver than the entente ships,
and have prevented the occupation
OF kotlas by the allies.
A plan is under discussion in mill
tary circles for the creation of a
voluntary army for Russian relief,
should the allies agree upon the pol
icy of feeding Russia.
Daylight in Archangel now is of
only four hours duration, and this
fact. with the fogs, facilitates the
guerilla warfare by the bolsheviki
operating in the shelter of the for
ests. 1t is believed evacuation of
the Archangel district by the allies
would probably result in the murder
of the entire population friendly to
the entente by the bolsheviki just as
the elements antagonistic to the boil
sheviki were slaughtered in the
Voiga towns evacuated by the
Czechs after the establishment of
White Guard governments under
Czech support. A similar slaugh-
ter occurred at Vologda. where en-
tente supporters who rallied about
the embassies were prosecuted mer-
cilessly after rhe departure of the
entente diplomats. Allied encour-
agement OF the anti-bolshevik or
ganization has carried with them re-
sponsibiiity which the military lead
ers are unwilling to overlook. |

AS RAIL Chief
CONTINUED From Page One.)

doubt of the presidents selection.
Such a man as Maj.-Gen. George w.
Goethals is wanted, it was stated
today-a man with executive ability,
not closely connected heretofore
with railroad management. who
could view problems from the, pub
lie standpoint, and at the same
time could direct the staff and Or
ganization already built up by Mr..
McAdoo.
On the new director general Of
railroads whoever he may be, will
devolve the task of guiding the
roads through the readjustment pc
riod. This task will apply to many
phases of employment conditions,
rate practices, traffic reforms, ter
minal consultations, distribution Of
newly purchased cars and locomo-
tives, policies of government fnanc-
ing of additions, betterments. ex-
tensions and equipment purchases,
continuation of rerouting and short
hauling, standardization of operat-
ing methods and measures to in
crease the traffic capacity of the
rail system to handle the big volume
of freight expected by students of
industrial development during the
next few years.
Upon the policies Of the new rail
director will I depend largely
whether the government shall con-
tiEue combining the railroads into
homogeneous unit or begin the
breaking up" process in preparation
for resumption of private control.
From the presidents selection, OBJ
servers believe, may be determined
to a large degree the attitude of the
administration on the railroads fu-
ture.
This is one reason why the pick
ing of new director general is re-
garded as fraught with such unusual
significance.
Although Mr.. McAdoo will retire
to private life, his friends say he has
no thought of refraining from ex-
pressing his ideas on governmental
policies from time to time. Particu-
larly will@he remain interested in the
railroad question and those in close
touch with Mr.. McAdoo would not
be surprised to see him come for
ward in few months with specific
recommendations for the nations
consideration of the railroad issue.
Mr.. McAdoo is said by his friends
to look with disfavor on restoration
of individual railroad competition
and there have been many reports
that eventually he would advocate
complete government ownership, to
be effected by exchange of govern
ment bonds for railroad securities.
Formally and officially, however,
Mr.. McAdoo never has indicated
this attitude.

The rice weevil, commonly called
the black weevil. does the greatest
damage to corn. This insect will at
tack the corn in the field, consequent
ly one must use measures that will re-
duce such damage. The only method
Of lessening the field ravages is to
field-select the seed corn in order to
be sure of getting ears with tight
shuck coverings. The ends of the ears
should be especially well covered al
this also reduces the damage Of the
corn ear or cotton boil worm. Field
infested corn should be harvested
earlier than other corn. BY pulling 1t
with the shuck on many of the wee
wills may be removed. Such corn can
be fed very early or it may be placed

and treated with carbon bisulphide
to kill the weevils.
Carbon bisulphide is a liquid which
passes into gas very quickly after
exposure. The gas is infiammable, so
keep lights and fires away. 1t is heav-
Ter than air, hence IL shallow dishes
containing the liquid are set upon the
corn the gas formed will pass down
through the corn. II IN necessary that
the gas come in direct contact with
the weevils for at least 45 minutes to
kill them. This makes 1t necessary
to use one pound of carbon bisulphide
for every 100 cubic feet of space In q

amount to use should be two and one
half to three times as much. This
fumigating should be done on warm.
