THE 3IORXIXO OREGOXIAN. SATURDAY, JUXE 23. 1917. E RUSSIAN AUTHORITY Anarchists Are Real Factor; Plot Against Root Party Suspected. . JOURNEY MADE SECRETLY Millions of dollars' Worth or Mil itary Material at Vladivostok Rained by Long Exposure to Extremely Bad Weather. BY LOUIS EDGAR BROWXE. (Bprlnl rablfi dlwpatch to the Chicago Dally Ne'AX Published by arrangement.) PETROGRAD, June 22. (Special.) Crossing: Siberia on the journey from Vladivostok to Fetrograd. one 'sub consciously discovers the keynote to the Russian political situation. This condition has existed since the first week of the revolution. Although the Fetrograd government Issued order after order to the local military and civil authorities to arrest deserters and send then back to the front, few local authorities comply with the edicts. They declare that Fetrograd is unable to exert pressure and force obedience, besides they say that In republican Russia every man must be able to do as he pleases. If he does not wish to fight he can go home. Rach Village Huns Self. Each province and village along the Siberian Railway has established its own government, which it runs in its own sweet way, declaring its intention to continue doing: so until the constitu tional congress is opened next Fall. The trans-Siberian Railway transpor tation of munitions from "Vladivostok is gradually improving. Our train ar rived in Fetrograd only eight hours late in a 10-days' journey. There is plenty of food in Siberia and the east ern provinces of European Russia. Un til wo reached the Interior of European Russia, the dining car meals consisted mainly of fish, pheasant, wild duck and white bread. After that the menus were gradually reduced until 800 miles from Fetrograd we were having) soup and black bread. M erchandlse Piled Hljch. There are more than 500,000 tons of merchandise at Vladivostok, piled up in huge pyramids on the waterfront and along the railway sidings, covered only with ragged tarpaulins. Now sligh-tly more material is leaving Vladivostok than is entering that port, because the shipping has been checked. Only gov ernment consignments or private con signments destined for ultimate gov ernment consumption, and for which a special permit has . previously been granted, are allowed to be landed. This regulation is rigidly enforced. American ships and shippers are ad vised to clear no cargoes unless a highly detailed permit is obtained from a Russian Consulate before the cargo leaves the United States. One hundred and fifty freight cars leave Vladivostok daily, and if nothing more 13 landed the port can be cleared of merchandise in four months. But even yet munitions come so rapidly that much will never be taken away. Damage Will Total Millions. Already millions of dollars' worth of material has been ruined by exposure to the weather. When one surveys the acres of merchandise, which includes everything from gun nipples to dyna mite, one realizes the terrible perfidy and appalling inefficiency of the old Russian government. We saw a mound of baled cotton 40 feet- high and a quarter of a mile long, which for two years has been ruined alternately with rains and melting snow. The outer bales have been ruined by mildew. There was another mound containing bags of paraffine which had melted and collapsed into grotesque formations. The contents of 2000 barrels of rosin has desolved un der the Summer sun, tricked through the staves and flowed In a daily stream Into the bay. Today there is just a mass of broken barrels. All Articles Exposed to "Weather. One. sees packing cases by the thou sands containing valuable machinery, automobiles, clothes, shoes, pianos and practically every manufactured article known to mankind, all exposed to the weather. Vladivostok is noted for its continu ous rains in Summer and heavy snows in Winter. ' Every ship reaching Vladivostok brings a few anarchists. Our ship had six, who, when we were yet 100 feet from the dock, hoisted a black banner. Their leader mounted the rail and de livered a violent oration to a crowd composed mostly of natives, Mon golians, soldiers and officials waiting on the wharf for the ship to dock. ' The soldiers listened to the harangues for a few moments, leaped aboard, wrenched the black banner from the anarchists and threatened them with instant death unless they subsided. The anarchists then became as meek as lambs. So many thousands of this type have come back to Russia from America since the revolution that they .are now a considerable factor. They declare that the United States Is not a republic but an appalling plutocracy. Plot Against Root Snspected. "There are E0 monarchs in America an oil king, a wheat king, a copper king and so on," said one. And so serious an impression had these anarchists made through force of numbers and continually repeating the same thing with no one present to refute it that when Elihu Root, head of the American mission, arrived in I'm simply covered with eruption-What can I do? "I can't rest, I can't sleep, and most of all, I hardly dare go out, for when it starts itching, I simply have to scratch, no matter where I am." "Don't worry a bit just get a cake Df Resinol Soap and a jar of Resinol Ointment. Use them according to di rections and I am sure you will get prompt relief, and that your akin will be all right in a few days." Resinol Soap sad Ointment told by all dtuaaUu. for that skin trouble li SIB R1ANS IGNORE Vladivostok, the authorities" suspected a plot to blow up the train because every anarchist who came had men tioned Mr. Root as the monarch of America's unscrupulous money kings. Great secrecy was maintained con cerning Mr. Root's arrival and his spe cial train left Viadivostok by stealth. The private train had to be sent east to meet the Root party, but the situa tion was considered so delicate that the train stopped in Harbin, where the Root party changed cars. ROOT'S ASSUKAXCE CHEERED America to Klght Until Democracj Is Safe, Russians Arc Told. PETROGRAD; June 21. Declaring that the United States was going to fight until the world was made safe for democracy, Elihu Root, bead of the American mission, made his first public C. K. Atlas. C. E. Atlas, for four years pri vate secretary to City Commis sioner rieck, tendered his resig nation yesterday and left last night for American Lake, where he will become the assistant to the president of the Hurley-Mason Company, contractors for the American Lake Army post. Mr. Atlas will be the personal representative of the president of the company at the work, a position of considerable respon sibility. As secretary to Mr. Dieck, Mr. Atlas has made a good record in the part played In re organizing the Department of rublic Works and putting things on a scientific basis. The new position pays $200 a month. appearance here today. Mr. Root spoke to a large and enthusiastic Russian audience gathered under the .auspices of the Russian-American committee for industrial and economic rapprochement, recently organized. Several speeches voicing the appreciation of the com ing of the American mission were made by members of the society. Chief of these was that of N. A. Pokrovsky, president of the organization, who in troduced Mr. Root, Mr. Root outlined the causes which induced America to enter the war. "Cheered, encouraged and made enthusiastic by the freedom won by Russia, who was to become our ally and friend, we entered the war," said Mr. Root, "and we are going to fight until the world has been made safe for democracy yours as well as ours so no overbearing military caste shall push you or us off the sidewalk. The speech was interpreted, sentence by sentence, and aroused, the greatest interest, his peroration being loudly applauded. The mission left tonight for Moscow, intending to return to Fetrograd early next week. CONSULATE IS POSSIBLE FRIENDS SEEK APPOINTMENT FOR G. P. PUTNAM. Retiring Secretary of Oregon Governor Familiar "With Central Amer ican Republics. SALEM, Or., June 22. (Special.) It Is understood that George Palmer Put nam, who resigned recently aa private secretary to Governor Withycombe, the resignation to become effective August 1, may receive an appointment as Min ister or Consul in some boutn or cen tral American Republic, it the Oregon delegation at Washington can make the riffle. There was talk to the effect that Mr. Putnam might become private secre tary to Senator McNary, but with the recent announcement that Henry M. Hazen, a Salem newspaper man would be appointed In that position, that speculation was dissipated and it de veloped that probably Mr. Putnam will be placed In a Federal position. He is familiar with Central American republics, having written a book rela tive to his travels there, and his friends have known of his ambition to repre sent his country in & southern clime. Efforts are being advanced in Wash ington to further his candidacy for such a post, according to information that has reached here. He expects to leave Salem about July 1, his resignation to become effective August 1, and in the interim Mi Esther Carson will act as private sec retary. Report has It that Chester Moores, of Portland, may become pri vate secretary in September, although the Governor has made no statement to that effect. It is believed that Mr. Putnam may have his ambition to All a foreign post satisfied early in the Fall, so that he may leave shortly after his resignation from his present position becomes ef fective. He is publisher of a newspaper at Bend, and if the plans which are being furthered to locate him in some Federal position fail to mature he no doubt will return to that city. 60 SHIRKERS UNDER FIRE Federal Grand Jury Believed to Be Through With Conspiracy Cases.

BELGIAN TELLS OF LOVE FOR AMERICA Senators Hear of Sufferings of Stricken People and of Determination to Fight On. STAND NEVER REGRETTED Baron Moncbenr Declares That With Help of United States Xatlon Will Emerge Ready to Take Up Work of Peace Again. WASHINGTON". June 22. The Bel gian mission was received today in the Senate chamber with a great dem onstration. An address by Baron Mon cheur, head of the mission, expressing Belgium's gratitude for America's aid and sympathy, was punctuated with fre quent applause. Afterward all Sen ators were introduced to members of, the mission. The Baron addressed the Senate aa follows: ""ou all know the unspeakable evils which have befallen my unfortunate country the unprovoked Invasion, ac companied by a deliberate system of terror, the burning of many of our thriving cities and of innumerable vil lages, the massacre of thousands of our peaceful citizens, the pillage and dev astation of our country. Great Industrie) Stopped. Then followed the Iron hand of for eign domination, enormous war con tributions exacted from all the nine provinces of Belgium, the seizure of the raw material of industry and even the theft of our machinery, so that now the silence of death reigns in our in dustrial center which before had been the most active in Europe. "You also know, gentlemen, the way in which this regime of oppression has been carried out 8000 Belgians con demned in the space of one year to various penalties for having displeased the invader. You have learned also of the depor tation of our workmen into Germany a crime the horrors of which, accord ing to the opinions of one of your countrymen, should cause more indig nation throughout the entire world than all the previous outrages against the sacred principles of justice and of humanity. Belgium Baa No Regrets. But Belgium, even in the midst of the terrible misfortunes which have been brought upon her by fidelity to treaties and by respect for her plighted word, does not regret her decision and there is not a single Belgian worthy of the name who does not now, as on the first day of war. approve the judgment of our government that it Is better to die, if need be, rather than to live without honor. Like Patrick Henry, all Belgians say: "Give me liberty or give me death.' This sentiment will be shared by all the citizens of the great American Na tion who responded with such enthusi asm and with such unanimity to the noble words of your President, when in terms which held the world spell in term. v. men ntia in woria spew- i ported to bo connected with the retire bound he proclaimed the lm prescrip- ) . - . r. r . v. . . tible right of Justice over force. Gratitude Eiprewied for Relief. "The courage of my fellow country men has been strengthened also by the sympathy for our misfortunes which has been manifested throughout your great ' land. American initiative has bestowed most generous help upon our starving population, and in offering from this tribune the expression of gratitude of every Belgian heart I wish also to render special homage to that admirable organization, the Com mission for Relief in Belgium, which has done so much to save our people from starvation. 'Yes. gentlemen, the sympathy of America gives us new courage, and while King Albert, who since the fate ful day when our territory was vio lated has remained steadfastly at the tmit. continues the struggle with in domitable energy at the head of our army entrenched upon the last strip of our soil that remains to us, while the Queen, that worthy companion of a great sovereign, expends her unceasing efforts to comfort and relieve the vic tims of battle, exciting enthusiasm by her contempt for the danger to which she exposes herself day by day, on the other side of the enemy's line of steel stand the Belgian people, bowed with the yoke but never conquered, main taining unshaken patriotism in spite of the seductions of the enemy as well as in spite of his iron rule the Belgian population, a martyr whose courage Is upheld by our great Cardinal Mercier. awaits silently in the sacred union of all parties the final hour of deliver ance. "That hour, gentlemen, will, I am convinced, be materially hastened by the powerful aid of the United States, and the time approaches when Belgium, restored to full and complete inde pendence, both politically and eco nomically, will be able to thank In a fitting manner all those who have aided her to emerge from the darkness of the tomb into the glorious light of a new life."

We are not figuring inai li win take two women to ao j the work of one man; one woman can . do It. They work 9 hours. The pay I is 30 cents an hour. We are going to place women as mechanics' assistants, as helpers in all sorts of skilled labor." Progress of the War. THE French and Germans In the re gion north and northeast of Sols sons and in several sectors In Cham pagne have been engaged In furious fighting for two days with varying results, while in the eastern theater in Volhynia and Gallcia the Russians are using their guns against the Aus-tro-German lines in bombardments which may prove the prelude to the commencement of Infantry activity. On the British line in France bad weather has brought the operations of General Haig's army almost to a stand still, except for bombardments, which are being reciprocated by the Germans, patrol reconnaissances and. aerial oper ations. The offensive of the Italians, which was resumed Wednesday on the front southwest of Trent, has slackened ma terially in Intensity. On the other fronts only minor engagements have taken place. Having lost to the French the great er portion of the trenches they had captured in the vicinity of Vauxalllon, the Germans to the east of this region have delivered violent attacks along a front about a mile and a quarter, extending from Eptne Chevregny to La Royrer farm. Picked troops In large numbers were used In the assault. The French Inflicted heavy casualties on the Germans, driving back the assault ing waves into their trenches, except in the center, where the forces of the German Crown Prince entered a French salient. In Champagne southeast of Moron villiers, according to the Berlin War Office, the Germans In a surprise at tack conquered a French position, but the French later in counter attacks regained a portion of It. Near Carnil let the French penetrated the German line, but were unable to consolidate the position, owing to heavy counter at tacks. Disorders again have broken out among the sailors of the Russian Black Sea fleet at Sebastopol. They are re nd hv forces of reaction- arles. The trouble Is not believed to " " be serious. Unofficial announcements from VI- nna are to the effect that the Cabinet crisis has not yet been settled. It is sorted that Count Clam Martinic, the Premier, has been unable to form a new ministry and has requested Em peror Charles to relievo him pf the task.
