ENGINEER DESCRIBES LIFE IN RUSSIA AS STRUGGLE TO OBTAIN FOOD

kOMK, March 12. Russia is not In a position to export extensive s".:pplis 'f foodstutf or raw mat-r;al. 'Vn if s:ie has them. Maneln Forti, Italian engineer. d-clared wi'n h? arrlv-l h-r Thursday after a stav of two years In Kus.a.

"The only stores of wh-at that I ! know of in Hussia and I traveled oor the country ext nsl .ol v," h SrfM. "are in the Volga river valley.

He made the move, ho said, becausehe olid not feci justified in insLsting on a mere matter of phraseology. Only two democrats expressed their opinions on tho lloor. Sen. Smith, of 'P-orzia. who had sur -port.-d th original reservation, declaring himself for the substitute, and S. n. MoIOllor, ef Tennessee, who have stood consistently with the administration forces, announcing hts opposition to the 'new proposal. It was understood, however. th.it Sen. Hitchcock, of Nebraska, the administration leader, objected to th- substitute as he had to the Watson-Simmons draft, and would make an effort to line up enough democrats to prevent ratification should the substitute be adopted. Se-n. Rfidge.'s presentntion of the substitute apparently took the irreoncil.i Mcs by surprise and aside from their dcc',i rations on tb lloor, there were many private expressions of their dissatisfaction. They had constantly and successfully e-xerted pressure during the bi-partisan ne gofiations and during the WatsonSmiTiior.s negotiations to prevent any modification ot the eriglna! I,odge reservation, and until today they apparently believed they had convinced him that he should not put in tho rev.' substitute. Koot (lives .diM As It llnaliy etood. the substituterepresented tho result of long consideration by the re publican leaders, in which Son. Innige and Sen. Watson are understood to hav had tho advice of Klihu Root, former secretary of f?tate. It was indicated, however, that attempts might be made to amend it on the floor and every one admitted that in view of the unsettled situatirm and the even balance of voting power in the senate, the outlook contained many possibilities. In seme quarters there was much speculation tonight as to whether l'rest Wilson, now that the republican modifications have taken definite form, might not t-ike some step to Inform democratic senators, as he has done in th' past, of his attitude toward tue substitute. It was said by the democratic leaders, however, that they wenild make no effort to ascertain Iiis views, and that they had no knowledge of any intention on his part to make them known either publicly or privately.

Charges that tho federal board for vocational eelucation had made a disastrous failure of Its rehabilitation of wouneled pervice men were filed with the house education committee FYiday by Harold A. Littledale, reporter, who has made an Investigation for the New York Evening Post. In a statement, Littledale claimed that out of a total of 01, 000 men registered with the board of whom it is believed 110.000 are eligible for training, only 24,000 have been placed in training schools after IS months of work by the board. Only 217 have been trained and placed in employment, he charged. Little-dale's figures were denied by C. F. Mcintosh, representing the board, who claimed that 55,000 wounded and crippled soldiers are in training. MWes Other Charges. Other charges of Llttledalo were: More than 13.000 Korvice men whose appeals for training have been approved have never been stmt to schools. The soldiers become so tired of waiting that 30 per cent of those eligible have "thrown up in disgust" their chances of getting to echoed. Ten per cent of those who have ; started the training have abandoned it because of many delays. Lax business methods by the board. Charfres Cruelty to Wounded. . . Cruelty toward the wounded service men by representatives of the board, as evidenced by an alleged order claiming them to be "hard boiled" with their patients Littledale claimed that James P.

Littledale cited a number of specific instances to show how the board had failed In its work. McADOO W OULD RELEASE MICHIGAN DELEGATES NKW YORK, March 12. William CF McAdoo telegraphed Coleman C.

SARAH TABOR SICK; NEW WARRANT OUT Aged Woman Suffers Heart Attack Before Sheriff Arrives. KALAMAZOO. Mich.. March 12. Mrs. Sarah Tabor, accused ol responsibility for the de-ath of her daughter, Mrs. Maude Tabor Virgo, was taken to the hospital suffering from heart trouble shortly before the arrival of Deputy Sheriff Dwight Barker of Paw Paw. with a warrant for the rearrtsfof the aged woman. The new warrant for Mrs. Tabor's arrest follows closely the supreme court's order admitting her to ball and ordering Judge DesVoigr.es of Van Huren county, to show cause why he did not dismiss the charges against her. The original case against the 80 year old woman has been dropped and entirely new proceeding? begun in circuit court at Paw Paw. The new developments will compel postponement rf the trial which had been set to open at Paw Paw March 15. Cnuse of Attack.
