industry of the state, the appointment
of one of the leading agricultural
authorities of Montana, who likewise
was not one of the large list of appli-
cants. The governor, instead of acting
upon the recommendations of Mr..

ment to him and insisted upon its ac-
ceptance.

movements now are spreading to every
troop and sailor center, when the men
return to them from leaves of absence.
Thus rehabilitation daily is growing
more dangerous for the bolsheyiki.
Naval Officer Leader.
These and other inside facts. con-
stituting the latest developments in
Russia, were given The Associated
Press Wednesday by Stephano Max
movitch Petrinchenko, plain petty
officer from the Russia battleship
Sebastopol, who led the revoluticnists
recently at Kronstadt and who was in
terviewed Wednesday in the Terijoki
refugee camp.
It was Petrichenko, and not General
Kozloyski, the commander at kron-
stadt, who was the central figure in the
latest attempt by the Russian work
ingmen to overthrow Communist
tyranny.
Koziovski was only a technical man
in the affair.
Censor ConceaIs Happenings.
"For years." said Petrichenko, "the
happenings at home while we were on
the front or at sea were concealed by
the bolsheviki censorship. When we
returned home our parents asked why
We fought for their oppressors. That
set us thinking"
Petrichenko described dramatic. meet
ings on the quarter decks of the battle
ships Sebastopol and Petropavlosk, at
which resolutions were adopted de-
manding the freedom Of speech and of
the press; freedom of individual work
.ers from the tyranny of communists

The resolutions spread to other ships,
to the Kronstadt garrison and to the
workers in Petrograd, and the revolt
resulted.
Movement to Proceed.
1--WE were defeated" declared Pet
richenko, "but the movement will pro-
ceed, because it comes from the people
themselves"
Petrichenko is only 20 years old. He
had only two years of schooling and
was a plumber before being appointed
to the navy nine years ago. He was
arrested by, the bolsheviki several times
as counter revolutionary, but when
he tried to join the white forces, he
was told that he was bolsheyik.
There are 100000 like me in Rus
sia," said Petrichenko, neither reac-
tionary whites nor murderous reds; and
from these plain people will come the
overthrow of the bolsheviki."
Petrichenko is a plain sailor Of the
uniformed type. He demonstrated his
leadership as president of Kronstadt,
when he succeeded in bringing out the
refugees to Finland in perfect order.
He was the last of the koslovski ad-
herents to retract His followers say
his greatest fault was his reluctance to
kill communist agitators when he was
president of Kronstadt.
500 Workmen Massacred.
Petrichenko said Wednesday he had
received information that five hundred
workmen left behind in Kronstadt were
massacred by the bolsheviki because
they fired from windows while the red
cavalry was entering the fortress. He
added that he was certain that neither
Kronstadt nor the two battleships
would ever be menace again as their
guns and their working parts were
thoroughly demolished when he left.
