McAdoo Wants Fire
Prevention Day Put
Over Until Nov. 2

Fire Prevention Day at the sugges-
ton of William McAdoo, secretary Of
the, treasury, probably will be- held
Nov. 2, instead of in October as orig
inally planned. H. L. Reade, North
Dakota fire marshal. today received a
wire, from the national board of un-
derwriters asking him to concur in
this proposal. He promptly did so and
it is likely all state marshals. will
grant the request of the federal gov
eminent SO as not to conflict with the
liberty loan drive. which will be in
full swing at that time.
If this is done the government will
instruct its 10000 fourminute men to
speak on fire prevention during the

CAUSE NOT CLEAR.

London, Aug. 15,-Dispatches re.
ceived in London, Monday state that
Leninet and Tretzky, leaders of the
'Bolsheviki government and all de-
partments have fled to Kronstadt, the
naval base. The flight was said to
be due to the threats Of the socialists
Of the right that they were about to
precipitate a reign of terror.
Whether the Soviet forces were
compelled to evacuate Moscow is not
clear. The loss is a serious blow to
the Soviet cause, say reports received
here. Moscow is the ancient capital
Of Russia and was made headquarters
Of the Soviet cause in March.
The Lenine government fled fher,
from Petrograd when German troops
threatened to occupy Petrograd 1t
has been within the last ten days that
the Germans have renewed their
march toward that city.

to mean that the recent agreement OF

that rough seas may have separated
