r GOVERNMENTS
 IN UKRAINE ARE
 UPSET IN 4 YEARS

PRAGUE, April 19. - Seventeen different governments have been up- set and supplanted with entire changes of authority in the Ukraine since 1917, says the Vollia Rossii, Russian daily paper published here by Socialist t-Revolutionists The rev olutions, it is said, have been due to- the struggles of the peasantry against the successive rule of the Germans, the Cossack hetman, the land barons and, finally, the Bol- sheyiki.
 After telling about the revolts of the Little Russians against auth ority imposed upon them without their consent" the article says:
 "A radical change has occurred in the psychology of the peasant masses, change which may be termed 'psycholgic atavism.' It is as if the souls of the people were changed back to the times of the 18th and 17th centuries, the times of the Tartar invasOns, the slave markets of Constantinople in the struggle for the right to live on the ground drenched with the blood Of their forefathers.
 Starving north Russia has sent forth scores of thousands of Soviet employees and bag speculators (per- sons dealing in foOdstuffs carried in bags on their backs) to the fer tile Ukraine provinces, in quest oi food, while about 100000 Soviet troops are stationed in the cities, towns and hamlets of the Ukraine.
 Many families from North Rus sia are migrating to the south tC escape death by starvation. At the sametime, the Soviet authorities have taken steps to mobilize the male peasant population and send Ural. in an effort to combat the rebellion of the peasantry. The cruelties of the Austro-German per iod of occupation are as nothing compared with the horrors of the Soviet activities in the Ukraine
 The earlier cruelties toward the peasant rebels, such as fiogging, confiscation of farm implements and depletion of their resources, has been followed, the article says, by punitive expeditions, wholesale exc cutions, hangings and shootings The peasants in reprisal are report ed as ambushing Bolshevik detach- ments many of which disappear without trate" Cases are on rec ord, the newspaper states, where communists have been buried alive by the score"

FLU" EXPENSES
 CRAFT CHARGES
 MADE IN HOUSE
Expenditures Characterized As Excessive" "-lnves-
 tigation Is Ordered.


 Following fntimatioa made in tho House of Representatives yesterday afternoon by Representative H. H.. Ross, of Fairbanks that grossly excessive" charges for service aad possibly supplies had been made in connection with the epidemic of Spanish influenza on Seward Penin- sula and other places in the Terri tory, also in the installation of plumbing in the local Fisheries build ing, the House by unanimous vote ordered an investigation of such eX- penditures by adopting motion to that effect introduced by Mir. Ross. Speaker Nerland appointed one mem Der from each Division, MT. Ross being named chairman, the other members being Representatives Cole, Frame and Julien.
 Surprises Many Members
 It was apparent that MT. Ross motion came as surprise to num- Der of the members, while others. who had been Investigating certain claims still pending against the Ter ritory, seemed to have been expect ing it. The matter was brought up just prior to adjournment. MT Ross in making his motion prefaced it by saying: Beginning on page 95, of the report of the Territorial Treas urer for the last biennium, is the statement of expenditures made in connection with the Spanish flu ep- idenmic in the Second Division show ing total of $70,173.85. There seems reason to believe that at least some of the charges contained there in are excessive The same thing might be said in connection with ex- penditures made in the Nenana dis trict during the epidemic of 1920 which are not shown in the. report. There are persistent reports in this town" he said, "that there have been made excessive charges in con nection with the installation of plumbing in the Fisheries building He then moved that the Speaker ap- point committee to investigate both matters carefully with power to call on the Territorial Secretary for all vouchers connected with the expenditures, the motion passing unanimously.
 Starts Work Today
 Chairman Ross stated last night that the committee would begin it's work at once and conducting it's in vestgation with all possible haste consistent with thoroughness, would render its report back to the House as soon as possible The records of the Secretary, he said, would be call ed for today.
 Cause of Inquiry
 While members of the Legislature have studied more or less carefully the report of the Treasurer which has been in their hands since the beginning of the session, no partic- ular attention has been given the influenza expenditures until the Committee on Ways and Means was ditional claims amounting to be- tween $5,0O0 and $6,000, all arising from the epidemics. One item, call ing for approximately $4O0 for re- pair of an automobile used in Nome, drew some fire from several com mittee members and led to closer study of the entire list of expendi- lures, both paid and pending claims.

1922 Naval Academy Class
 Will Graduate This Year

ANNAPOLIS. Md, April 19.-Thc naval academy class of 1922, the present second class, consisting of 660 members, who would ordinarily graduate from the academy and be commissioned ensigns in the navy in June, 1922, will, by order of Sec retary Edwin Denby, graduate and be commissioned in December.
 This action was taken, it was learned, in view of the urgeNta need for additional officers.
 Many reserve officers will be trans ferred to the inactive list before the end of this year, causing a shortage of regular command officers of the line
