g. All payments previously made In
kind to be made in money.
4. Wages to be paid to the worker
must be such as will enable him to meet
the expenses of rent, heat, lighting, wa
ter, clothing, barber bath, theaters and
other amusements, railway travelling, food
for himself and family.
5. Output of work to regulate payment
Of wages. Work done in a factory-not
the number of workers employed there
to be the n easure of the wages paid.
6. Less OF those wise tables about
wages and greater simplihcation of sala-
ries.
z. Russia to have FLEXIBLE" wage
system, in determining which the rate
of exchange will have an important in
fiuence.
s. Get rid Of the idea that in the mat
ter of wages everybody should be equal.
Payment, ON the other hand, should be
regulated by the amount and character
of work done.
0. Foodstuffs which workers wish to
buy to be supplied at cost prices at the
factories where they work.
10. The introduction of cash wages
means the abolition of the monthly ra-
ton system.
The aforementioned point Is, of course,
the most vital in the decree, indicating
as it does the end of the attempt to ra-
ton a population Of over 120,O00,OO0 BY
the Government.
The inequalities of the system, and the
bureaucratic machine for distribution
which is needed even had the blockade
and the famine not made the task quite
impossible of fulfllmept, would have
eventually led to its breakdown.
The change will not provoke any real
dissatisfaction from the vast mass of the
population, who could never grasp the
intricacies Of the rationing system, of
which there were at least fourteen differ
ent categories. The complaint was that
while the rations existed on paper they
rarely existed in actual foodstuffs.
As a matter of curiosity the rations
distributed in one month among high

CHICAGO SITS
BOND SCANDAL
Broker Said to Have Admitted
Effort to Sell 100000
Stolen Securities.

CHICAGO, Dec 0.-Joseph Moulton, an
official Of the brokerage firm Of Hamil-
ton. Anderson & Co, confessed today, &C
cOrding to attaches Of the States at
torney's office. that the firm knowingly
had attempted to dispose Of 100000
worth of stolen bonds.
Kenneth Anderson, president Of the
firm, and W. J. Serpas, secretary, ale de-
tanned pending a thorough investigation.
Walter H. Gehlaar, bond salesman, IS
under arrest and detectives are seeking
Harry II. Walker, another bond sales
man.
MouIton told the States attorney, it IS
said, that he knew of the alleged opera
tions but had refused to join in the
scheme. Moulton is said to have named
Gehlaar rs the man who brought the al
legged stolen bonds to the firm.
Discovery OF the alleged scheme fol-
lowed the arrest Of Jack Grahame, a
salesman, on charges Of attempting to
dispose Of bonds said to have been stolen
from a Chicago brokerage house.
Anderson and serpas denied the
charges.

SOVIET RULERS
FINALLY COME
DOWN TOEARTH
Latest Ukase Does Away With
National RatiOning and
Restores Wages.

LONDON, Dec. 9.-When l left Rus
STA the newspapers, thus rejecting pub
lie interest in the matter, were full of
explanations Of and comments on the
decree, signed by Lenin and other COM
missars Of the people, In which In eff
feet the practical abolition Of the ra-
tioning system and its substitution by
wages in money was announced.
This decree, the logical sequel to that
issued three months back, authorizing
private trading, marked another stage in
the process of turning undiluted COM
munism into a system Of modified cap
italism.
The failure of the "world revolution"
Is offered as the explanation of this re-
versal of policy on the part of the Sovie
government, although other causes, such
as the realization that many reforms have
been too rapid and too radical to be d.
gested by the Russian masses, might be
mentioned.
The decree referred to is a really
statesmanlike and coura geous document,
in which some blunt truths are told the
workers of Russia-truths which, If they
came from capitalist governments, would
most certainly provoke a storm OF pro-
test.
III GANNl luC POphAaA NeAU -
conception of communism, as meaning no
work and plenty Of food, and wages
supplied by the government for every one
excepting the hated bourgeois, IS replaced
Ly one which insists on hard work.
The need for the adoption Of the pay
ments by results" system in the Russian
factories, and the rejection of the theory
that all should he paid alike-the I'M
skilled laborer with the highly skilled,
technically trained manager-were the
most striking features of the decree.
Some fears were entertained in gov
eminent circles when | was in Russia
that the blunt truths mentioned might
not prove palatable to the Russian work
ers, and attempts were being made as l
left Petrograd to explain, by means Of
posters, as gently as possible, the mean
ing of the decree to them.
The following summary, Transcribed
from posters affixed In the city, indicates
the main points of the decree and the
way they have been put before the Rus
sian working classes.
1. No square pegs in round holes: no
more skilled engineers doing the work
Of stablemen; no efficient trade union
lists as potato growers; no girl typists
acting IS charwomen.
,. The more you produce, the more
you will earn.

from the old institution to the new when
the latter is completed.
9. That there shall be appropriated for
the purchase of land and the construction
Of a new institution the sum of 100000,
plus the proceeds of the sale Of the old
refOrmatoTy, amounting to approximately
$3.50, 900, plus the money appropriated for
the improvement Of the old institution,
mately 100000.
LITTLE CHANGE
IN PROVISION.
The provision for the appointment of
committee Of four is the same as in
the present act, exceut for the fact that
under the present act this committee is
to have charge Of the building, as well
as the relocation of the institution, while
under the new bill it is to have charge
Of the relocation only and the board of
trustees is to have charge of the build
ing.
The location provision of the new bill
differs essentially from that of the pres
ent act. The present law provides that
the reformatOry shall be at Putnam
vile in Putnam County" and adjacent"
to the Indiana State farm. The new bill
will leave the matter Of the location en-
tirely in the hands of the committee, pro-
viding only that the institution shall be
more centrally located"
The provision for the right Of eminent
domain is not contained in the present
act. 1t was put in the new bill to guard
against "hold-up" tactics Of property
owners.
The advisory committee provision does
not differ from the manner in which the
Governor undertook to carry out the
provisions OF the present law. There is
such committee now in existence.
TECHNICALITY
COMES TO LIGHT.
1t was thought advisable to provide
for the transfer of the prisoners to the
new institution specifically to block any
attempt to make their transfer invalid
because they have been sentenced to a
particular institution situated at a par
ticuIar place. This, however, is merely
4 legal technicality.
The present act provides only for an
appropriation of $4,000 for the pur-
chase of land and the construction of
a new institution. The smallness Of this
amount was one of the principal reasons
why the present law was not carried out
The appropriation this time viii not be
in a lump sum, but will be divided as
indicated.
In the new bill there be no time limit
within which the institution must be
constructed, despite the insistence OF Col
gate & Company, which has purchased
the present Reformatory property, that
It be given possession at the earliest
possible date.
The printed copies Of the bill, as soon
as they are OF the press, viii be mailed
to all the members of the General AS
sembly in order that they may be IA
miliar with its provisions before they
come to Indianapolis. The committees IN
charge have devoted most of their atten-
ton To making the ill as nearly amend
ment proof" rs possible in order that it
viii not needlessiy prolong the session.

HARDING HOPES
TO BE REALIZED
NCONFERENCES
Bryan Declares Presidents
Optimism Is Justified by
Prospects.
JTLOOK IS PROMISING
By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.


WASHINGTON, Dec. e.-President
Harding's optimism in regard to the re-
suits of the conference is justified. He
said in a recent address that the nego-
tiations promised to succeed beyond our
fondest hopes"
The delegates can do nothing them
selves. They speak for the government
which they represent and the govern
ments must act with caution, because
they speak for the people and the people
exercise an increasing influence over
their government.
The conference is proceeding as fast as
could be expected. 1t already has made
unexpected progress, the results achieved
are beyond the anticipation Of the most
sanguine. Everything has proceeded with
out a hitch.
FARLEY CANNOT
Do EVERYTHING.
The conference cannot settle all prob
Iems-sOme are not yet ripe for settle
meat, but the momentum is increasing
and. in time will overcome all obstacles.
It Is reported that the japanese govern
ment agrees to the -four power" agree
ment which seems likely to be substi-
tuted for the AnglO-Japanese alliance.
This agreement cOntemplates a period of
discussion before war and that in itself
is sufficient to greatly decrease the dan
ger Of international trouble in the Pa
cife. Japan did not enter into a treaty
with the United States for the investiga-
ton Of all disputes before resort to war.
She was one of the big nations that did
not, but this was doubtless due to the
dispute over the California land laws.
In ratifying the Versailles treaty which
contained the covenant Of the League Of
Nations. Japan Endorsed the thirty
treaty plans Great Britain and France
have indOrsed the plan both in treaties
with the United States and in the League
Of Nations
TREATY PULLS
ALLIANCES TEETH.
The much discussed AngIo-Japanese
alliance was made harmless by the treaty
between Great Britain and the United
states signed on Sept. IS, 1919, which gave
years time for Investigation before
resort TO war.

the Pacific will make it easier to

tons viii poia providing machinery for
