IN OPENING BATTLE
More Conservative Element
Loses in Third Interna-
tionaIe Skirmish.
By the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
RIGA. June 21.-Leon Trotsky, the
Russian soviet war minister; M. Zino-
vieff, soviet governor of Petrosrad;
Karl Radek and their followers won
preliminary skirmishes over the more
conservative elements. and have been
assigned leading roles in the third
internatoinale Of Moscow, according
to information received from the So
Wet capital today.
A Moscow dispatch from the Of
0cial bolshevik agency, Rosta, says:
- The executive committee OF tie
internstio nale, together with the dele
gates. already has arrived and work
ed out the plan for the congress. To
Zinovieff has been assigned the re-
port on the activity of the executive
tional> situation and the problems OF
the communist internationale; to
Radek problems of tactics.
The report on the internal and ex-
terHal situation of Russia will be
made by Lenin, and Hinchock OF the
Russian central cooperative union
will report on the co-operatlVes.
Zinovieff has been slated as chair,
man. with KEENAN,. Lorio and Giunar'
as deputies"
According to information reachinE
here. Lorio is a Frenchman. Glunari
an Italian and KEENAN, probably an
Englishman. From this slate 1t ap-
pears that the old Russian group
will have complete preliminary con-
troll of the internationale. while the
Germans are not even represented
among the vice chairmen.
Nikolai Lenin'S activity apparent
" is confined to Russian affairs and
an exclamation of the change In
policy. The recently published state
ment in the Moscow Pravda on the
tactics of the third internationale by
Karl Radek declared that the time
for propaganda had ceased and that
direct action was needed.
