Against Duck Hunters.

Federal Judge Van Valkenburgh Of
Kansas City Wednesday held valid
and constitutional the migratory
bird treaty which prohibits the shoot
ing of ducks and other wildfowl in
the spring. Half a dozen lawyers,
among them Frank McAllister, Mis-
souri's attorney general, who himself
has been arrested for violating the
regulations, were on hand to tell the
judge about the invalidity of the
thing, but he refused to see it their
way. Doubtless, the case will 60 to

REORGANIZATION OF
ALL-RUSSIAN POLICY
IS MAKING HEADWAY

Omsk, Tuesday. May 2O.--The work
of re-organizing the cabinet of the all
Russian government Is proceeding, II
being intended to effect closer co-ordl
nation with the military control and
at the same time work more efficiently
along the lines of the program of Ad'
Justice and education. NJ. Starinkevitch
and NJ Sapozhnilloff, have been sue
ceeded by Professors Telberg and Pre-.
ohorazhensky, who it is believed. Will
direct the work of the two departments
TO better advantage. 1t is proposed to
combine the ministry of war with the
general STATE, under the presidency
of the chief of staff. General LebedieV,
who will move to Ekaterinburg, where
he Will be nearer the scene of opera
tiOns.
This ministry in the past has done
the recruiting and drilling of the sol
diers up to the point where the men
were incorporated into combat units
After that time the men passed under
control of the staff, AN arrangement
which resulted in some cases in con
fuct of authority.
Certain considerations regarding the
provisioning ana equipping of the men
will also he influenced by the pro
posed change.
Admiral Kolchak. head Of the all
Russian government. has returned from
a visit to Ekaterinburg, where he pre-
sided at conference of manufactur'
ers peasants and industrial organiza
tions in the Ural district. He gave
them assurance that the government
would help in the rehabilitation of in
dustres and in the building up of
transportation facilities.
Guarantees were given a Jewish dele
cation that the rights of the Jews
would be safeguarded and several Jew
ish organizations expressed confidence
i'm the government, sending cash do
nations for the army. Admiral kol-
chak outlined the work proposed by
the department of agriculture in farm
ing land reform Legislation which
would guarantee peasants the tenure
of land which they till and increasing
the number of land holders by u large
percentage in many districts. The land
policy of the government Contemplates
roadly the parcelling out of government
lands and the subdivision of private
estates on the basis of fair compen-
sation to the owners from the govern
ment treasury.
