The industrial conference in session

AMERICA IS WARNED
BY RUSSIAN SOCIALIST
Former Moscow Labor Leader Says
Workingmen Brought to Ruin
by BoIshevism.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Official adj
vices here state that the Russian So
cialist, revolutionary and member OF
the second duma, G. A. Alexinsky, who
recently escaped from Russia after I'M
dergoing ten months Imprisonment at
the hands of the bolsheviki, has writ
ten a description of the present STU
alton in Russia.
According to this information" the
report says, "in spite OF the terrible
conditions Of life and the fact that
the bolshevist spying system is quite
as we'll organized as was that of the
old regime, great deal of cryptic ac-
tivity Is going on in anti-bolshevist
circles.
eat present three considerable or
CARNATIONS have united against the
bolshevists, namely, the League OF
Russia's Regeneration, the National
Center and the Committee of Public
Men. These represent all the groups
from Octoberists to social revolution
aries, inclusive.
"Alexinsky is deputed to represent
these united organizations, and he
states that their policy is to support
Admiral Kolchak, with whom they are
in regular communication through
couriers. They have only one point
in view: that those who are not with
Kolchak are with Lenine.
"The economical measures of the
bolshevist government have complete
ly ruined the larger industries. and OPP
erations have ceased at most of the
mills. There are now only 100000
workmen left out of 100000. Two
thirds of the Industrial proletariat of
Petrograd have disappeared. In this
way the idiotic policy of the Russian
bolshevks is destroying the labor
movement.
Before Alexinsky left Moscow on
May he managed an important Sec
ton Of the general labor confedera-
tion."

TO SELL At RETAIL

u. S. to Dispose of Surplus
Household Commodities.
BUSINESS STARTS SEPT. 25
Government to Purchase Certain Nee,
essaries and Keep Open Indefinite
ly as Part of War on
High Prices.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Retail stores
for the sale of household commodities
included in the surplus stocks of the
war department will be established
September %, it was announced here.
The stores will be in depot centers
and large cities and they will accept
and fill mail orders. Continued pur-
chase by the department of certain
necessaries so that these stores may
be continued indefinitely as part of
the government campaign against the
high cost of living is understood to be
under consideration.
Many Articles to Be Sold.
Huge quantities of socks, under
wear, shirts, raincoats, blankets,
gloves, tobacco, soap and other arti-
cles will be sold at the stores.
Prices on all commodities offered
for sale will be fixed to prevent dis
elimination between the purchasers
who buy over the counter and those
who purchase through the mail.
To Open Stores In IL Cities.
All mail orders will be delivered by
parcel post, but the policy of making
these sales through the post office
department is to be discontinued. All
such orders will go directly to the
stores.
To expedite the mail order sales the
post office department has been asked
to establish substatiOns in each store.
Catalogues quoting prices and giving
the location of all stores are being pre-
pared, and will be available at every
post Office in the United States.
The present plan is to open stores
in the Il zone supply cities-Boston.
New York. Philadelphia, Baltimore, At
lanta, Jacksonville, Chicago. st.
Louis, New Orleans, San Antonio,
Omaha, E! Paso, San Francisco and
Washington. The chain will be ex-
tended to additional cities as rapidly
as possible.
