RUSSIAN REVOLUTION I0NE 0F LONG SERIES
 I0F PEASANT REvOLTS
IaspubIiean 4. p. Leased wIrel

NEW YORK, March S.-The anti bolshevist uprising in Russia Is not a now movement but one of a series of uprisings which occurred the last three years and remained hidden under soviet seensorship, Sir Paul Dukes, former British secret service agent in Russia, declared today. Sir Paul. who spent more than two years in Russia, dis s1lfsed as a Russian workman, is here ich . visit.
 1. After having spent most of his life i4mong Russian people. he volunteered lin 1918 to replace thc~British naval and intelligence officer who was killed in Petrograd and carried on his work in idisguise.
 {, The uprising, he said. occurred in ISIS when two commissars were mur- ldered by workmen. As a reprisal, Zin- lcvieff, president of the Third Interna- stionale. and favorite of the ruffianly ,<lement, ordered 800 persons shot Three more uprisings he added, oc- lfprred in 1915, the first in March when i4pO workmen were ordered shot and lthe families of those who escaped were ssized. A second outbreak in July was quelled. he pointed out, 'by mercenary Chinese and Lettish troops with many casualties. In October a delegation of Worknen left Petrograd to meet coun-
 
 Hudenitch, then close to the city. One hnndred eighty nine workmen were shot Sir Paul stated.
 U Classification among the sailors dis played itself early, he pointed out, and qonttnued to show itself from time to time, notably at the approach of the British fleet to Kronstadt in 1919. Up- risings in 1920 were sporadic, i'll or ganized and hampered by counter revo- mtionary troops outside Russia, such as those of Wrangel, which reused the suspicious of the peasants and work men.
 ! ilSir Paul declared it was his belief rfat the worlSmen, sailors and peas apts only awaited disappearance of ithese counter revolutionary troops to Start the present uprising.
 He told of a resolution adopted by 1e.000 workmen at the Putfloff iron nuundry with only Is dissenters. which called for free press, speech. meetings inviolability of person, freedom ol movement and abolition of the deatf penalty and torture. These workmer dSclared. he explained. that the bolshe- NIX dictator ruled autocratically through the medium of the extraordi- nary commission, the czar's secre police and gendarme ~detachments.
 "On each occasion" he said, "th. Worhers put forward demands of ai economic and political nature. The, Glamored for the restoration of the co operative societies, attributed the foot crisis to the bolsheviki food systen which prevented free trading between towns and villages. and demanded ire elections of soviets and liberation O their comrades"

Little Hope For
 Early Reduction
 In Freight Rates
rRepubIican A. P. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, March S.-The gen. eral railroad situation affords little prospect of general decreases in freight rates, Chairman Clark of the interstate commerce commission today informed Senator Harris of Georgia. Replying to letter from Senator Harris in quiring as to the possibility of a re- duction in freight charges, Chairman Clark said:
 The situation is not so good as in December. There has been a falling off in general traffic. The average operating ratio Of the railroads is something over 90. That means that for every dollar that the railroads earn they pay out more than 90 cents. Due to the narrow margin between rev enue and operating expenses and fixed charges, good many are not even earning their operating expenses. Un- der these circumstances it is difficult to find an argument in favor of re- ducing rates, unless in instances in which it can be shown that the rates are stifling the traffic and that lower rates would effect a movement from which there can be some return.

LEADERS CHARGE
 PACKERS TRYING
 TO FORCE STRIKE
.re.nubIIoan A. p. Leased WIrcl

CHICAGO. March S.-Union leaders, representing more than 100000 work CTS in the packing industry in all parts of the country. departed for Omaha tonight to attend two-day meeting which opens tomorrow to consider the decrease in wages and readjustment or working hours which were announced by the packers today to become ef- fsctive March IA.
 Charging that the packers were try inr to force a national strike, because, having forced livestock prices to the lowest level in years and having filled their warehouses. they want 60-day shutdown so that they can unload tnis supply on the public at high prices. The employees representatives said that the workers were prepared to op- pose "restora ton of the 10-hour day to the last ditch."
 Tn discussing the announced wage reductions, which approximate 121s per cent, Dennis Lane of the Amaf- Workers union said this cut would work against the old employees and would eventually Amount to about 40 per cent.
 "The packers are trying to take on
 the new help at the 30 cents an hour of 23 cents, and makes a reduc>.on of 70 per cent. The packers are contem- plating striking as much help at the 30-cent rate and then laying off the older help. The older help then will b. he employed, but at the new scale" The packers, however. declared that at the rates to be paid, employees would fprobably earn as much or more thar sthey did under the present wage scale and insisted that the adjustment O.
 working hours did not mean the return
 to the 10-hour day. but only that extrs pay would not be made except for time
 over 10 hours.
 We are in sympathy with the shor
 work day and fair wage theories ant our problem Is to attune these theories
 as nearly as possible to the actualitie which we encounter in dealing witt lproducers and consumers" said '; statement issued by J. ogden Armoul head of Armour& & Co.

that amount has regularly decreased un-

1t Is therefore evident that the fuel

ture of her industries and commerce.
depend entirely on coal and electric
power. The latter she can produce at
home, the former she must import. But
by developing the electric power TO the
highest possible amount she reduces her
necessity for foreign coab and therefore
retains a larger portion OF her national
wealth.
OF course there are people who say
that the introduction Of dynamic morse

Charges Against Allies.

The Allies are accused of starving
Italy for coal in order TO crush her
growing industrial development, To
them are attributed the recent social
disorders, which is, OF course. absurd.
The social disorders were due to the
same elements that caused Caporetto,
and to strange foreign propaganda.
It is even stated that the Allies pur-
posely starve Italy to foster German
trade.
Italy can obtain coal from only three
quarters: the United States. Great Brit
ain and Germany. The supplies that she
could obtain from the Black Sea mines
and Belgium are so insignificant that
they are hardly worth mentioning. She
requires a million and a quarter tons a
month for her increased development
January of this year she obtained
602,07 TONS of which 134,400 came
from the United States, 311 ,0S1 from
England, and the balance from Germany
and Belgium. Last month the total was
a little over 100000 The falling off was
due undoubtedly to the English miners
strike which is beginning to be felt in
the north of Italy, as stocks are getting
low. especially for gas coal. Within her
own borders Italy has nothing but lig
mite, which she is producing in increas-
ing quantities. But although Ignite is
usable in certain furnaces it cannot and
does not take the place of coal. A mill
lion and a half tons were produced in
1920.
AS bad as the shortage of coal is the
enormous price that Italians are asked
TO pay. Last year, before the slump In
freights. Italian industries had to pay
500 lire Cor SD nominal f24 ton for
coal. while the British merchants were
paying 40 to so shillings, according to
quality. the Belgians 80 to 112 francs,
the French $50 francs and the Germans
100 to 230 marks.

Germany, amounted TO only 5,619,97S
tons, or rather less than half the pre-
war supply, at a cost of iii, 1892
lire. AS Germany, according 10. the
Treaty of Versailles, had TO supply
Italy with coal to the extent Of four
TO five million tons between July l,
1919. and June 80, 1920, and 100000
tons between July. 1920, and June,
1921, and during last year supplied
less than 100000 tons. il will be seen
that Italy last year was able TO OBJ
tain only half the amount of coal
from abroad which she obtained in
1918, and for that amount she paid
two and a half times the value of her
pre-w war purchases. This is the crux
of the whole fuel question in Italy,
which has turned her industrials
against the Allies, and which in the
case of a future conflagration would
certainly have an effect in northern
Italy on the attitude to be adopted.
