Representatives- of the workmen in the Doneti coal and metallurgical region have de manded a minimum wage of 250 rubles a month. The representatives declared that the sum mentioned represented the average cost of living for a family of fonir. A -delegation from the Kronstadt Council of Soldiers' and Workmen's Delegates has arrived here and been received by a committee from the Petrograd council. Although declaring themselves in agreement with the Petrograd body, the report of the Kronstadt delegation indicates that they do not fully comprehend the re lations between the government and the Petrograd council. Delegates of the Petrograd council are going to Kronstadt Sunday to in vestigate the seizure of the fortress by the Kronstadt delegates. BAKER OR DALY IS ISSUE (Continued From First Page.) are many staunch union men who reel as he does that it would be disastrous to Portland and the Interests or its citizens to lose its new shipbuilding atrial strite pro moted by agitators Industry through indust Mr. Baker has always been a friend f the working man, and he has not changed his views. He is opposed, - however, to the methods of the agi tato?, and has declared firmly for pro tection of the shipbuilding industry gainst any attempt to tie It up In a general strike. Will II. Daly has drawn to the sup .port of his candidacy all the -radical and trouble-making elements In the city. This fact cannot be truthfully disputed by any Daly follower. The farts speak for themselves. Hp, is especially the avowed candi date -of radicals in the ranks of labor, who are working openly for his elec tion as the first step in a programme that involves tying up all the ship building plants, if necessary, in a su preme effort to make Portland a tight end ;ast "closed shop" town. Daly Client as Strike Is Planned. Tin? turning point of this campaign and Ihe act that crystallized the- is sues -occurred at a meeting 10 days ago of the Central Labor Council, at which Mr. Daly, a member of the council, was present. At. this meeting the flat statement was "made by Joseph Reed, a radical labor" leader, whose attempt to close the. Willamette Iron & Steel Works re cently was unsuccessful, that this strike would be revived and an effort '' made to make Portland a closed town. He .went on to outline plans whereby, he declared, thousands of men were awaiting the word to walk out in a general strike to" bring the Wlllam- ette Iron & Steel Works to terms and make Portland an absolutely "closed- snop town. Mr. Daly made no objection or pro test to this radical programme, al though it called for stoppage of work In the all-important shipbuilding in dustry in order to hit at the Willam ette Iron & Steel Works. That is not all. Labor agitators have since bragged tiat with Daly in as Mayor, they will control the police de partment, the municipal Judge and the city i.ttorney and can paralyze any ef fort to combat the strike that Is planned. They have passed the word around to their followers to "single shoot" the ballot .for Daly, but to elect him at any cost. J ' General Strike Is Aim. 1 Bearing out the many other threats of a general strike has been the recent activity of agitators seeking to or ganize platform men of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. No particular secret is made of the fact that the real purpose desired is to inake it possible to call out the plat form, men and tie up streetcar trans portation in event of a general strike. In .face of these threatening condi tions great numbers of supporters of the ether candidates for Mayor have come to Mr. Baker as the only candi date 'who can defeat Daly. Kvldence of this has been over whelming. Straw votes indicate it. - So do hundreds of telephone and personal messages received every day at Mr. Baker's headquarters, 1033 North western Bank building, from men and women who declare they win give Mr. Baker a first-choice vote, or In any To. vote otherwise, they figure, and rightly, would be nothing less than con tributing to Mr. Daly's election, be cause he is counting as a unit on the vote controlled by the labor agitators , and the radicals. This compactness of his vote is what makes his candidacy dangerous. Among the many who have called' at Paker headquarters,, or have told Mr. Baker in person that they will vote for him and are working for him, are many labor union men, who. see no excuse for the programme of industrial strife planned by the Daly following. Realizing that Mr. Baker is the one man who can defeat Daly, followers of Dalyiin the last three or four days have redoubled the campaign of mud-sling lng instituted against him by such sup porters as-the radical Daily News. Mr. Baker for Public' Market. A sample of the lying character of the vilification being heaped upon Mr. Baker by these elements is a story pub lished In the News to the effect that he was opposed to the . public market nnd .would close it if he were elected Mayor. ' . . The article was lifted bodily from the News and distributed in circular form' throughout the city yesterday, al .though there was not a word of truth In it. "I ara not And have, hot been, opposed - t-o the public market." said Mr. Baker last night. "I favor the public market. This story is simply typical of the cam paign lies that have been circulated against me by such organs as the Daily News. It was spread as an eleventh hour attack with the expectation that It would be too late for me to answer it." If the Jitney free streets measure should fall to pass at tomorrow's elec tion. Mr. Daly, as Mayor, could give the Jitney free streets. He could null ify the Jitney bond measure If It should be enacted. That his policy is against enforcing the wishes of the people as expressed at elections Is indicated by his having gone right ahead with hla plan for uni versal water meters at heavy expense, despite the fact that the voters by overwhelming vote had disapproved the water meter measure. His disregard for measures enacted by the people Is further shown by his action In having resorted to every sub terfuge to prevent safety and service regulations against Jitneys after being Instructed by the voters at an election to impose regulations. Other Candidates Out of It. The other candidates for Mayor be sides Mr. Baker and Mr. Daly are B. S. Josselyn, W. H. Warren. E. N. Wheeler. ORECOMAK KLECTIO.V RETURN 9. Returns from the city and state election tomorrow will be bul letined to the public by The Oregonlan on a screen at Sixth and Alder streets. The polls will close at 8 o'clock, and the first returns will be flashed as soon, as the count Is well under way. All interested In the election may follow the result as the count progresses. A large squad of motorcycle messengers will cover the Portland voting places, keeping in touch with the office by telephone, and correspondents from all parts of Oregon will telegraph in returns on the road bonds and other state measures. Join the crowd at Sixth and Alder on Monday night and get the first election news. A. G. Rushlight and George MenieL As explained, the campaign - has so shaped Itself that none of them, has a chance of being elected. Because the campaign has centered to such an extent about the contest for Mayor, the race for Commissioner- has taken secondary place In publlo In terest. Two Commissioners are to be elected out of the field of 16 candidates. These candidates are as follows: John A. MoQuinn, George Garrett, Archie Mason, John M. Mann, 1'. W. Jobelman. K. K. Kubli, Dan Kellaher, A. L. Barbur, Robert G. Dieck, Norman S. Richards, L. M. Davis. William E. Smith, Kmilie Beyer, William L. Brew ster. George W. Caldwell and Charles P. Church. 18 Measures on Ballot. On the city ballot are also 18 meas ures, submitted by the Council or under the initiative, on which the Voters are to pass.

PROMISES NOT FULFILLED Four Montlis Passed Since Assur ance of Bringing Kngland to Her Knees In Shorter Time Wlth Submarines. COPB.VHAGEN, via London. June 2. Private advices from- Germany tell of growing dissatisfaction with the' re sults of the ruthless submarine cam paign and the absence of any Indica tions that it has brought the desired peace near to hand. During their long campaign for the unrestricted use of submarines, the ad vocates of this measure made very defi nite promises of immediate results. "Two or three months." was the phrase used everywhere In street and news paper arguments In regard to the time it would take to bring England to her knees, ready for peace. Grumblings now are heard that al though four months have passed Eng land shows no signs of weakening, but on the contrary seems determined to prosecute the war more bitterly than ever. Questions have been recently asked the correspondent by Germans here not in official i ositions, who are disgruntled over the results of the submarine cam paign, as to what would be the effect in the United States If the submarine warfare were now abandoned. The gov ernment, however, shows no signs of weakening and now Is engaged in a vigorous publicity campaign to bolster up the waning confidence at home and quiet the complaints of neutrals.

It is a vital factor for the development of man power which is the lever of all successful business. But while you may not be concerned with the ethical side of the partnership, you as a user of tires are vitally interested in its effect on the quality and mileage cost of Firestone Tires. Now that Firestone workers are owners of the business, it is logical to suppose that there will be improvements all alon& the line. Efficiency has always been the Firestone watchword, and everybody knows that men are more efficient when personal pride and ambition are involved. Firestone workers are literally Firestone builders, build ing not only tires but fame and business success. Action is quickened, ability encouraged, enthusiasm spurred.
