I The Socialist ministers at a recent ministerial council said that the only possibility they saw of settling the difficulty was to bring the war to a close. ' Neither the coalition Cabinet nor the newly appointed Commission to regulate the difficulties between capi- I tal and labor has yet found a way to I settle the Industrial crisis. The Com mission is composed of the Ministers of Finance, trade and Industry and labor, but since there is a wide diver gence of views between the Minister of Finance and the new Socialistic Minister of Labor, It seems probable that this Commission will be confront ed with the same difficulties that at tended previous efforts at reconcilla , tion. I An Investigation of the factory con ditions in Petrograd leads to the alarming, hut inevitable, conclusion that unless the Government soon finds a means of adjusting the present dif ficulties, most of the Industrial enter prises working for National defense will b« compelled to close within a few months. An investigation shows that virtually- the Bame difficulties prevail In all the big factories In Petrograd and apparently authenticated reports from the Moscow, Donets and Ural dis tricts Indicate general disorganization. In many of the factories, the demands by the wworkmen for increased wages are actually greater than the entire profits of the factories under the best conditions of production. HOUSE PAMEB FIRBT OF FOOD CONTROL BILLB. Provides For Survey of Food Bupply, Appropriates $14,770,000. Washington.—The Administration's food survey bill, first of the food con trol measures, was passed by the House without a record vote. It ap propriates $14,770,000 for an Immediate Investigation of the country's food re sources and tor measures to stimulate production. A similar bill Is under de bate In the Senate. Tha Agriculture Department expects to praMßt ft fairly accurate estimate of food resources within three week* after the bill la signed by the Presi dent, Secretary Houston said. As soon as the measure becomes a law, the Department will start Its 17,000 employee and the 150,000 -voluntary crop reporters to work on the inves'.i (ation. The preliminary report to be made within the three weeks will be supplemented with monthly reports and probably by a further complete report within six months If necessary. Material gathered will be turned over to Herbert 0. Hoover, who was named* as head of the food adminis tration, as aoon as the pending regu latory food measures becomes law. In the surrey bill, paased virtually as it came from the committee. Miss Rankin, the woman representative from Montana, inserted an amend ment which would require the Depart ment of Agriculture to use women in tha survey work whenever practica ble. An amendment by Represent* tire McKensie of Illinois would mske all persons employed under the bill liable to military service, and another would permit citizens to refuse to go more than 300 mile* from their homes or places of business to testify in a food inquiry. Great Britain may bay ont its liquor trade, bat not necessarily as a mark of esteem.
