WINNIPEG, May 31. A parading trowd of 2000 or more returned soldiers and union men today swept through the provincial house of parliament and then marched to the city hall, where they broke up a council meeting. In both buildings speakers, using vio i lent language, charged that Premier T. C. Norris and Mayor Charles F. Gray were not dealing properly with the fitrike situation and shouted that 'something had better be done soon." This was the second parade to parlia ment in two days. The marchers noti fied Premier Norris they would pay him a third call on Monday.

Union, Klamath and several other counties are urging the passage of the measure, as only by having the 6 per2cent can these counties raise enough money to finance the sort of road programme they desire.

Masses Hare Less Liberty Than They Enjoyed Under Czar, De clares Major G. W. Simmons. SEATTLE. May 81. "Russian people have learned, to their sorrow that bol shevism is not a political doctrine but rather a tyranny of Ignorance and bloodshed which leaves individuals far less personal freedom than they found under the czar," Major George W. Sim mons, special commissioner of the American Red Crorfs, said here today. Major Simmons arrived at Vancouver, B. C, yesterday, and Seattle today on his way to hio St. Louis home. "Those who op-pose bolshevism by word or deed are ehot." the major said. He told of murders of Siberians by bol shevists for trivial reasons, some of the victims dying because thejt lived in brick houses, others because tbey owned shops and etoree, one because he was a policeman once, others because they were teachers. Many priests have been killed, he declared, and the churches turned into theaters. Major Simmons praised Admiral Kol- chak's government and army and pre dicted he would take Moscow by Au gust. The people of Siberia and east ern Russia, he asserted, are solidly be hind the Kolchak government in its fight against bolshevism. The American Red Cross at present. Major Simmons said, is operating 3500 hospital beds, mostly for Russian sol diers. The Red Cross organization ex tends from the Pacific over 4000 miles west to well past the Ural mountains. LETHBRIDGE MINERS RIOT 320,000 SAIL IN MONTH TROOP MOVE5IENT REACHES NEW HIGH RECORD. DOMINION AID IS REQUESTED Rai I way Shopmen. Ask Premier to Force Conference on Issues. MONTREAL, May 31. Premier Bor den today received a message for warded from this city by Charles Dickie, secretary-treasurer of division No. 4, Railway Shopmen, insisting that pressure be brought on employers to accept the principle of collective bar gaining, one of the chief issues at Ftake in the Canadian general strike. The message concludes: "As our membership is very restless owing to the situation that has been created, and. our membership is about to become involved, kindly reply what Steps your government ia taking to cope with the situation." STATE PROGRESS INVOLVED (Continued From Flrat Page.) tiected with the Pacific Highway by Xneans of tap roads through the natural passes in the coast range, such as the road out of Roseburg to Coos Bay; from Eugene to Florence; from Mc- Minnville to Tillamook, and from Albany to Newport. If built, the Roosevelt highway will make acces sible hundreds of thousands of acres which are now virtually in a foreign land. The reconstruction measure calls for 35. 000.000 of which $2.00u,000 is for re clamation of arid, swamp and logged off land and which must be matched by the federal government before being used. The remaining $3,000,000 will be devoted to a building programme car ricd on throughout Oregon. Many Iubllc Buildings. Among the items it provides is the terection of a state hospital at Port land; a new penitentiary; new build ings at the University of Oregon. State Kormal school, Oregon Agricultural college and armories in many parts of the state. Each of the counties which wishes to avail itself of the appropria tion for its armory must match the cum. The reconstruction measure, which also finances a land settlement plan will be carried into execution by the Etate board of control, this body being governed by labor conditions. As surances have been given by the gov ernor and state treasurer that if the bill passes they will not expend the money unless it is necessary to assure the employment of labor. Members of the grange are concerned In the passage of the market roads tax bill. This provides a tax of one mill on all taxable property, the proceeds to be devoted exclusively to the construction of market roads. It will raise about $1,000,000 a year. Every county wish- ing to take advantage of this road fund may draw from the fund more than it contributes, with the exception of Mult nomah county. As most of the money will come from the city property of the state and will be spent in the country, the farmers are enthusiastic over the measure, and the city taxpayer is not objecting, as good market roads will bring more business from the country into the towns. Aid for Heroes Involved. Another measure on the state ballot aims at the direct assistance of sol diers, sailors and marines, who enlisted or were inducted into the service from Oregon. This measure allows soldiers $25 a month or $200 a year for four years to assist in defraying their ex penses at any institution of learning. public or private, in Oregon. A two tenths of a mill state tax is levied for financing the veterans. At present counties are limited to going into debt not more than 2 per cent of their assessed valuation for the construction of roads. The first meas ure on the state ballot amends this paction of the constitution, raising the Police Battle With Mob for Half- Hour Before Order Restored. LETHBRIDGE, Alta, May 30. (De- layed.)
