DID3TT ITXDEBSTAIf D
TThe broad masses of the Kronstadt
population . kept on working without un
derstanding the actitenesa of the con
flict. Kronstadt being located upon the
Gulf of Finland stands at the gateway
from which the world's highways lead to
the imperialistic countries. At Revel the
white guard officers became active.
: "The counter revolutionary - agents la
the Baltic at pnee began to establish a
contact with Kronstadt? 'The original
leaders of the movement became badly
frightened and began to complain of the
growing Influence of the counter revolu
tionary military officers, but then it was
too late. . t - ! - -. - .
."Quito obviously after, the Ice Is rone
from the Gulf off Finland, the counter
revolutionaries could remove our vessels
and deliver them Into the hands of the
imperialists as they did rebels.

"Knowing this we presented an ulti
matum to the mutineers and then ap
plied armed force. There is no doubt
that - the i mutiny r will thave , collapsed
within . a , short time regardless of the
fact that the mutineers i possess heavy
artillery. : i
"The demonstration at Kronstadt
showed the garrison and the population
tnat the Insurgents were up against an
armed struggle. ' : This Immediately
brought about disintegration of the
Kronstadt garrison. Sooner or later
Kronstadt wllLreturn Into the fold of the
soviet government and the soviet flag
and the world Imperialists will have suf
fered another disappointment."

Russia soviet or csaristic, - Kikolai
Lenin declared in an Interview printed
here today. : ' f : : v i" ; -. - i
"Some fools believe a constituent as
sembly 'would succeed," i he said, "but
Russia would be . a bear garden with
the bears with rings In their noses, led
by ciarls t generals.
'The revolt In the Petrograd district
is a case of foolish discontent, backed
by. the capitalists of the world, but it
will fail. . j ...
"The world Is divided Into two armies,
eaeh trying to frighten the other. But
we shall see who is frightened first.'
Lenin declared he had no fear of the
result of the Kronstadt ' revolt because
food was too scarce in the Petrograd
area.'' . : ., ;: r t .. ;
"The sailors who are leading this
foolish revolt cannot succeed," he de
clared. "They are out of their element
when they lose sight of the Gulf of Fin
land." . i

the fortress of Kronstadt. to deliver food,
reported that there were about 50,000 in
surgents in the petrograd district but
that contrary to previous reports, Petro

hope of the Insurgents was that the peo
ple of Petrograd would join thea insurrec
tion. . . . .

FOUR L'S AGREE ON '
IIN10M WAGE
OF S3.60PER DAY
The minimum - wage scale of the
Loyal Legion of Loggers an d Lum
bermen will 1 remain at $3.60 'per
eight-hour ' day, ' according to n
agreement reached at a special meet
ing of the board of directors of the
organization at-the' Portland, hotel
Tuesday. Action on a proposed re
duction of wages in the lumber in
dustry; was deferred to the regular
meeting of directors in May.
The readjustment of transcontinental
freight rates "on; lumber to give North
west lumbermen an even break with
southern pine manufacturers In competi
tion for eastern and middle western
trade was held essential to a revival of
the industry In Oregon and Washington.
CAMPAIGN' INDORSED ? j
The directors also went on record as
favoring any movement which would
promote building construction and In
dorsed the local "build a home" cam
paign which is to culminate with a build
ins material exposition at The Audi
torium in .May.' -
The board of directors consisted of 11
employers and an equal number of em
ployes. Both elements agreed that the
lumber Industry has set the pace la the
downward trend of prices. The mini
mum wage of the legion was reduced
from $4.40 per day to $3.60 per day ; in
December, and prior to that time a ma
jority of the mills in the Northwest had
been paying in excess of the scale. The
price of lumber was shown to have
dropped 60 per cent during the past year.
The Fidaigo Lumber & Box company
of Anacortes, Wash.,, and the Defiance
Lumber company of Tacoma were ex
pelled from membership in the legion on
charges alleging that they had refused
to pay the minimum scale to workmen.
Permission to operate mills at- Coos Bay
at less than the legion scale was refused
by the directors.
FOETT THOUSAND ME2T IDLE .
According to Norman F. Coleman,
president of the legion,, more than 40,000
loggers and lumbermen are unemployed
in Oregon, Washington and Idaho, and
production at the mills has fallen to
about 50 per cent of normal. Members
of the board of directors are :

rA Bush & Lane Grand Piano
An Inspiration to a Fuller Life
Where the tone quality of a piano is pure, dear and pleasing
to the ear as it is in the Bush & Lane instruments, it becomes a
wondrous inspiration, lifting the hearts of all who hear if into
the realm of rapture and enjoyment.
Such an instrument becomes a wonderful aid in the derelop
ment of musical talent for the young and enhances appreciation
of the best there is in music Fortunate, indeed, the family
which possesses such an instrument.'
Not only is the tone of the Bush & Lane Diano the embodi
ment of perfection, but the design and finish is an artistic
triumph. As tastes differ in case "designs, there is sufficient
variety to permit a satisfactory cnoice. -
V Then as to price. In purchasing a Bush & Lane piano one
not only obtains a highly superior instrument, but, buying direct
fror the manufacturer, realizes the saving of many dollars.
