Russia is being plunged into
rioting even more serious than any
that has gone before.
Advices reaching diplomatic
quarters here yesterday indicate
hat the Bolshevik government is
facing the most serious and bloody
crisis of its turbulent career. Al
the same time the State Department
reported all wire communication
with Russia has been severed. ap-
parenty by the Red Guard.
Hell is popping in Finland" "
one State Department official ex-
pressed it.
The Germans, meanwhile, are
seeking to turn the situation to
their advantage.
The full text of Foreign Minis
ter Won kuehlmann's speech on the
Brest-Litovsk negotiations was re-
ceived at the State Department to-
day.
Germany Breaks Truce.
The United States General Staff
announced that it had Information
showing that. Germany Is breaking
the terms OF the truce with Russia
by moving large numbers OF men
from the eastern to the western
front.
The announcement was made pub
lie by the Committee on Public In
formation and undoubtedly was
forwarded to the committees repre-
sentative in Petrograd. 1t will tend
further to disturb the Brest-Litovsk
negotiations.
1t is still possible to communicate

planned. But the Department is

MILLION MORE
MEN AVAILABLE
FOR SOLDIERS
Secretary Baker Declares
U. S. Ready to Meet All
Allies Demands.

Other millions. IL needed. will fol-
low the million and a half men
America expects to have in France
before the end OF this year.
The fighting force OF the United
States can be strengthened by
another million men without serious
delay. Secretary Baker said last
night.
II 1t Is more man-power that the
allies need, this country stands
ready to supply il.
Expansion of the nations war
machine will be continuous. The
full measure of battle efficiency
America is to contribute is limited
only by the needs OF the war situa-
ton.
II IT is found that munitions and
supplies are the vital need. the
United States will be prepared to
meet this demand.
The most effective assistance In
cooperation with the general allied
program is the task to which the
people in this country will bend
their energies.
Secretary EIaborates.
The future course of this govern
ment will be determined by develop
ments in Europe, said Secretary
Baker. The Secretary elaborated on
Military Affairs Committee with re-
gard to the general plan for Amer
ica's share in the world struggle.
The only possible scheme this
nation can follow, said the Secre-
for fa will fif n n
that of the allies as a whole. Vic
tory will be won through a unity
OF action. The policy Of the United
States must be sufficiently flexible
to bend to meet fuure needs and
demands as they arise. The full
strength OF all the allies must be
co-ordinated.
The Supreme Allied War Council
forms the steering gear which shall
determine future activities on this
side. Developments here will be d.
rected at all times in complete CO.
operation with the general aims OF
the allies.
1t was made plain that the number
Of men to be called out under the
second draft had not been determined.
The date of the next call also is un-
decided.
There Is no immediate plan TO en-
large existing camps and canton
ments. The present capacity is l,5OO.-
900 men in all branches of the mill
tary service.
Tents TO BE Used.
It is highly probable that tents
will be more widely used in the
future. Surg. Gen. Gorgas still be-
lieves tents provide the better way
to house men in training. Recon-
mendations to this effect could not be
carried out in the first draft because
OF an extreme shortage OF canvas.
The first draft is scheduled to be
completed on February Is. The final
patches OF men from States which
have not sent their full quotas TO
camp will be orderd into service by
that time.
The rapidity with which men now
In training can be sent abroad is
regulated by the availability OF trans
ports. AS each unit is removed from
a cantonment. another unit can be-
gin training.
Needed legislation incident to the
second draft includes provisions max
ing subject to draft all men who have
become q years OF age since the
law became effective and relieving
from operation of the law all reg
istrants who have reached the age OF
81. Further laws with regard to the
status of aliens under the selective
service regulations are needed.

N.CROWDER
SURPRISED AT
BAKER POLICY
Officer Would Enlist Draft.
ed Men 81 Since June 5;
Secretary Would Not.

Shall the men who have become 81
since June s. 1917. go automatically
out Of the draft list?
This question was brought up last
night following a meeting Of the Sem
ate Military Committee investigating
the War Department.
Provost Marshal General Enoch II.
Crowder, who appeared before the
committee, said he did not think so.
Secretary of War Baker said later at
the department that he believed these
men should be relieved from military
service.
When Gen. Crowder appeared before
the committee to urge passage OF a
bill registering all men who have be-
come q since the date indicated. he
was surprised when told the Secre-
tary's idea about the 31-year-old men.
States His Preference.
ct am a little unprepared for the
Secretary's statement" said Gen.
Crowder. "I do not know OF such a
provision in the bill. 1 would very
much prefer for the 31-year-old men
to remain in the draft"
II sent the bills to the chairmen,"
said the Secretary. 'I certainly In
tended that these men should be re-
leased. II there is any difference Of
opinion between the general and my
self, it was simply a misunderstood
ing in our conversation. that was all. "
The Senate Committee was pre-
pared to report the bill favorably to
the Senate today. but some members
are opposed to releasing a-year-old
men. SO the bill may be delayed.
Gen. Crowder preceded Howard
Coffin. chairman of the Aircraft
Board. who told in secret Of prepara-
tions for air-war here and abroad.
The whole Of this week will be con-
sumed in hearing aviation experts.
For 100000 Men.
The provost marshal was urgent
that the committee introduce the
draft bill. 1t would make Immediately
available for services 100000 men in
draft class number one.
When the 21-year-old men have
been registered. a new drawing would
probably be ordered and the men
1t Is estimated. would be IN class one
This great number would do away
with the necessity Of calling out de-
ferred classes.
A suggestion by the provost gener-
al was that the President have au-
thority to draft skilled experts. not
in accordance with quota require
ments, because they are not dis
tributed equally throughout the coun-
try.

New Britain Plans to Give French Band First and Best Reception

Tickets for the French Army Band concert next Monday evening at 8 8:8p o'clock may now be exchanged for reserved seat coupons at CrowelPs drug store This concert will be one of the finest musical events New Brit ain has been treated to in a long time. and on this account alone the band should receive 8 crowded house. Add ed to this there is also the prime req son that these distinguished heroes are to be the guests of the city of New Britain the first Of any place in Con- nedicutt and the concert is for the benefit of the French I. M. c. A. war work. Not a cent from the sale of the tickets goes to anyones private pocket book, and all the expenses. are being underwritten by a syndicate of public spirited private citizens Every dollar goes to help sustain the French army at the front through it's I. M. C. A, which has such powerful influenca on the morale of the troops Agencies like the Y. M. c. A, Knights of Co., lumbUs, the Salvation Army and tho Red Cross have done as much as any, thing else to win the war as through them the morale of the troops is sus- tained.

]. 5. INDUSTRY AND
 IFS FRENCH FIELD
New Method Of Cooperative SeIl-
 ing May Be Necessary

Washington, Sept 13.-American manufacturers who plan to supply materials for the industrial recon struction of northern France should prepare for cooperative selling, for g, revolutionary change in French methods of buying is to follow the war.
 A small number of central purchas- ing agencies, representing groups of French manufacturers engaged in re- lated industries and assisted by the credit of the French government, will deal with those supplying the mater ial
 Scattered American selling efforts will not be able to meet the require- ments of the huge buying power of several thousand French consumers, in the opinion of Pierce C. Williams, American commercial attache at Paris, who reports that unless American manufacturers prepare for co-opera- tive selling they will be laboring under a serious handicap.
 The Central Bureau for Industrial Purchases for the Invaded Regions, a French stock company composed of many manufacturers, has emphasized in a, report that the task of restoring the destroyed industries is too large for individual and competitive buying. It's directors are reported as equally certain that it will be out of the ques- ton for isolated American firms, no matter how large or well equipped, to meet the demand. It is with groups of American manufacturers-e group being able to supply a. certain industry with all materials and spe- cial equipment for it's restoration that the Central Bureau wishes to es- tablish relations.
 Although the French manufacturer in the past has been regarded as most individualistic among business men, the size and complexity of the task of reconstruction has caused him to accept such a radical change in his business methods as collective buying. The industrial reconstruction of France alone is more than one na- ton can properly attend to. so the pooling of American interests involves solution of the question Of whether Am erican manufacturers will be able to hold their own in competition with other nations. Occupied Area Industria1ly Important.
 Although the area, occupied by the Germans in France the last four years is small as compared with correspond ing regions in the Unlted states, northern and eastern France with Belgium were in 1914 one Of the bus jest workshops in the world. Nearly

BARRIERS DISCUSS PRICES.
May Adopt New Schedule for Hair
 Cutting and Shaving.

At a meeting of the Barbers' union held last night the matter of raising the prices of shaving and hair-cutting was again discussed and sentiment in favor of the proposed raises to 50 cents for haircutting and 20 cents for shaw ing seemed to exist, it is reported. It is probable that these prices will be adopted soon by the barbers of New Britain as they claim that some such action on their part is necessary as it has been found that it is impossible to meet their current expenses with the old prices in effect. The labor situa- tion together with increased cost of materials used in the business, they claim, make it necessary that they raise their prices.
 A full attendance of the union is looked for at the next meeting, which will be held September 26, as final ac- ton on the increases is to be taken at that time.

102 Sexton street has been so notified by the war department.
 Private Carroll, who is about IS years old, is the first New Britain boy to fall into the clutches of the Ger mans and, so far as has been report ed, is the only boy from this city who is now in one of the enemy prison camps.
 It was about four weeks ago that Mrs. Carroll first learned that her son was missing in action and this startling news was followed by several letters from the young soldiers com rades setting forth the conditions un- der which he disappeared. It was during the start of the F'ranco-Am ican drive and young Carroll was in the front line trenches. He was de- tailed to go across No Mans Land for a, certain distance and fill eight canteens with water for the thirstins soldiers. He started out and until, several weeks later, he was officially reported g prisoner, his friends heard nothing of his whereabouts or of his fate A brother, James Car rol, a corporal. is also in the head quarters company Of the 102d IT. $, Infantry.

Others who contributed to the program are Miss Marjorie Nelson who rendered piano selections, and Miss Ruth Parson, who entertained with vocal selections.
