GRAVE DISORDER FEARED

The Leningrad representatives have predicted grave disorders unless the big cities are better fed. Secret police and military barely prevented serious riots when workmen refused 21b of turnips or lib of oats instead of tlie bread ration, and demanded the immediate cessation of grain exports. It was decided that tlie Council of People’s Commissaries must immediately clear up the position. Tlie Prayda, the Moscow Soviet’s organ, admits that Russia is nimble to deliver larger quantities of wheat sold for future delivery.
