UNITED PRESS" MANAGER ON
THE SOVIET UNION.

Mr.. Bickel, Omitted Press" mana
ger communicated his impressions of
the Soviet Union to press correspon-
dents in Hardin. He said:
"The country made enormous pro-
gress in the course of a comparatively
short period. The towns of the Union
of Socialist Soviet Republics and its
capitals are flourishing. Industry is
developing buoyantly." Translated
from the Russian.)
Touching on the international sit
uation of the U. S. S. r. and the pos
sibility Of war he said:
"The experience of former war
has shown that any inva-
sion of the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics is doomed to failure"

THE NATIONAL PROBLEM IN THE
REPUBLICS OF CENTRAL ASIA

the, natives. During the last 4 years
the expenditures on education in the
Republics of Central Asia have in
creased ITO per cent. The school net
work has increased proportionally,
the greatest increase being on the
territories of former Bukhara and
khorezma, l. e., the most backward
and downtrodden districts.
Before the war there was for in
stance not single school in Turk
menistan in which the native Ian
guage was taught except the religious
schools. Since the revolution govern
ment and Communist universities,
numerous second-grade schools, tech
nicums and other educational insti-
tutions have been established.

BEFORE the revolution the small
y nationalities inhabiting the ex-
tremities of the Russian empire, par
ticularly Central Asia, were given alb
solutely no right to participate in the
government. Now the central insti-
tutions of Central Asia are governed
primarily by natives. In the lower
branches of the Turkonen govern
nrent the natives constitute 41.8 per
cent of the staff. In most districts
the administrative work is carried on
exclusively in the native language.
In Uzbekistan everything is done in
the Uzbekistan language. The extent
to which the native language has sue
reeded may be seen from the activi-
ties of the courts and the work done
in the other government institutions.
Since the native courts have been or
ganized, the others had to close down
as the population ignored them.
Trade Unions and COOperatives.
Cooperation is developing very
rapidly in the Central Asiatic Re-
publics. The managing boards of the
Consumers Cooperatives consist of
CTS per cent Of natives and the agri-
cultural cooperatives 90 per cent.
There is quite a considerable in
crease of natives in the trade unions
and in the Communist Party. In
1924 the natives constituted 17.9 per
cent of the trade union membership.
Now they constitute 81 per cent.

TO BE READ IN CLOSED SESSION

n ONTRADES permit me to call the attention of the
" Conference to the extreme seriousness of the po-
Htica situation. base myself only the news of
the Saturday morning papers. That news, however,
compels to put the question this way:
The absolute inacton of the English fleet in general
as well the English submarines during the occupa-
ton of Ese by the Germans, coupled with the govern
ments plan to move from Petersburg to Moscow-does
it not prove conspiracy has been organized between
Kerensky and the Anglo-French capitalists to yield
Petersburg to the Germans and thus to stfe the Rus
sian revolution?
think it does prove.
The conspiracy may not have been agreed upon di-
recty, but thru some Kornlovists (Makakov other
Constitutional Democrats "non-partisan" Russian mil
onare etc. but this does not change the thing itself
The-concusion is clear:
We must admit that the revolution is destroyed if
Kerenskys government is not overthrown by the pro-
letarans and the soldiers in the future. The up
rising question is placed on the order of the day.
We must mobilize all forces to persuade the workers
and soldiers that is absolutely imperative to fight
desperate, last decisive fight for the overthrow of
Kerensky's government.
We must turn to the Moscow comrades persuade them
to seize power in Moscow by declaring the Kerensy
government deposed and to declare the Soviet of Work
ers Deputies in Moscow the Provisional Government
of Russia, with the aim of offering immediate peace
and saving Russia from the conspiracy Let the Mos
comrades raise in Moscow the uprising question
Immediately
We must utilize the Regional Congress of the Sow
lets of Soldiers Deputies of the northern region called
for October 9Th in Hesngfors to mobilize all our forces
when the delegates go back thru Peersbug) in order
to win them over for the uprising.
We must turn to the Central Committee of our Party
with the request and the proposal to hasten the with
drawa of the Bolshevks from the Preparliament and
to turn all forces to exposing among the Ker-
enskys conspiracy with the imperalists of other
tries and to preparing the uprising to selecting the cor
rect moment for uprising. =
P S. The resolution of the Soldiers Section of the
Petersburg Soviet against moving the government from
Petersburg has shown that also among the soldiers the
conviction in Kerensky's conspiracy is rpening. We
must gather all forces to support this correct conviction
and to agitate among the soldiers.
propose that the following resolution be introduced
"The Conference having discussed the present posi-
ton which is generally admitted to be highly critical
establishes the following facts:
1.-The aggressive operations of the German fleet
accompanied by very strange inacton of the English
fleet and coupled with the Provisional Governments

strong suspicion that Kerensys government (or what

is clearer than clear that delay of the uprising is
really equal to DEATH.
With all my power wish to persuade the comrades

Who should seize power?
At present this is not important Let the Military Re
voutonary Committee seize it any other institution

to the Central Committee of the Boshevks insisteny
demanding under no circumstances to leave power in
the hands of Kerensky and Co., until the 25th by no
means, = but to decide everything under all crcum-
stances this evening this night.
History will not forgive delay by revolutionists who
could be victorious today land will surely be victorious
today while they risk to lose much tomorrow they
risk to lose ALL
If we seize power today seize it not against the
Soviets but for them.
Seizure of power is the business of the uprising its
political task will be clarified after the seizure It would
be disaster formaity to wait for the uncertain
voting of October 25th. The people have right and
duty to decide such questions not by votngs but by
force the people have right and duty in critical
moments of revolution to direct their representatives
even their best representatives and not to wait for
them.
This has been proven by the history of all revolI-
lions and the crime of the revoutionaries would be
lmtess if they let the proper moment knowing that
upon them depends the saving of the revolution the
offer OF peace the saving of Petersburg the saving
from starvation, the transfer of the land to the peas
ants.
The government is vacillatng. We must deal it the
death blow at any price Delay of action verify equal
to death.

of recent construction jobs In

Steam shovels were first put to
work on q great cleared space in

deep was made. This had to be

were purchased for this task
alone.
