tONDO.V. Jan. T. The Bolshevlkl are
definitely strengthening the - front.
Petrograd advices say. ' The corre
spondent of the Dally Newa obtained
this Information from M. Radek, one
ef the Russian delegates who took a
prominent part In the negotiations
with the Austrian and Germane at
retrograd. He said the Bolahevllcl were
Intending to send home all who did not
wish to fight, so that they would have
an array which waa willing to fight for
an Ideal.
The correspondent asked, "What
would be the attitude of the Bolshevlkl
in case of actual war with regard to
help from the allies?-
M. Radek repUed:
We do not desire their help. Our
strength lies In our weakness, and If
we accepted help from the allies the
significance of our position would be
dtroyd. The weaker we are the
stroeger we' are. The Germans can
drive us t c. but what good would It

A telegram from Breat-Litovsk to

Stan delegation, by .Foreign Minister
von Kuehlmann fr the German dele

of Justice Fopoff far the Bulgarians.
It recalls that when the central powers
outlined the terms on which they were
willing to make peaca they stipulated
that these terms would be valid only
if all the belligerents bound them
selves within a certain period to ob
serve them- The Russians then fixed
tea days as the period In which the
other belligerents were to decide
whether to Join In the negotiations,
but although this time elapsed January

plaint respecting French military
propaganda by stating that certain
news received from Stockholm had been
issued by a young officer by mistake
Tha General promised that no such
mistake would be made again. M.
Trotsky replied with a demand that
the officer In question leave Russia.
The correspondent adds that It Is a
pity that same of the allied diplomats

fact they are obliged to recognise his
authority.

M. Trotsky ordered the Immediate clos

Organisation plans of the new se
Ice were described in an official state
ment, which said:
"The United States employment
service has been divorced from the
Bureau of Immigration, under whose
control it has been since Its establish
ment made a separate arm of the de
partment and one of the largest and
most important war-prosecuting or
ganizations of the .National Govern
ment.
"In the utilization of ealsting and
projected Federal, state and municipal
employment offices and the labor sup
plying facilities of the Various State
Councils of Defense, the Federal em
ployment service will cover the entire
continent with a network of lnter-re-lated
labor exchanges. These will 're
cruit' and transfer workers from one
section to another and limlnate the
present chaotio situation of a surplus
of workers in one region and a short
age in another.
Desaaada WIU Be Supplied.
Supplementing this labor distribu
tion work, the expanded Federal ierv
loe will create a vast reservoir of labor
to meet the increasing demands of the
various war Industries by means of Its
two auxiliary bodies, the United States
Public Service and the United States
Boys Working Reserve. The creation
of this labor surplus already is under
y.
'The Public Service Reserve is ex
pected by the Department of Labor and
the beads of organized labor to solve
the labor shortage problem and to
prove conscription of labor to be un
necessary.
"The making of the- United States
employment service the instrument for
the handling of the National labor
question meets with the approval - of
botn employes and employers.
Portland's- War Emergency Council,
created as Multnomah County's unit of
the State Council of Defense, finds It
self confronted with, a complicated and
difficult undertaking in attempting' to
censor public soliciting of funds car
ried on in the name of patriotism.
Much criticism, even opposition.
was directed last night at the Emer
gency Council's meeting against the
provisions and Intent of the proposed
city ordinance, framed by a specially
appointed committee and presented as
solution of fund-soliciting evils. By
this measure it was proposed that or
ganlzations and individuals wishing to
solicit funds for supposed patriotic
causes be required to obtain a permit
from the City Auditor, this to be grant
ed only after the Auditor had been con
vinced by proper and adequate evi
dence that the cause was a worthy one
and that the funds gathered in would
be properly handled.
As a result of the discussion, during
which even the sponsors of the pro
posed ordinance acknowledged the un
covering of weak points. Mayor George
L Baker, presiding officer of the coun
cil, referred the whole matter back to
the committee In charge for further
investigation and report at the next
meeting. Judge J. P. Kavanaugh. City
Attorney W. P. LaRoche and A. W.

At the opening of the session Mayor
