As the Stockholm Conference proved abortive and the, MocOW Conference rejected the separate pasco proposition, however, the Germans anoched so offensive against the Ruasions. The result was that within a few days if the conclusion of the Moscow Co feroze the German Sqasdsen eutered tigs Bay and the German array cuplared Rigs on the 3.d juston'. As to the fature mavic. ents of the Germene nothing ean be asid with any degree of certainly, but ane thing is certair, and that is that eo long, sa, the Russian troops are acder the direction of the so-called Cen mittees and are allowed to spend three hours avery day in political debates they will not be able to make may stand against the German on-slaught.

sre well versed in their condition doghted whether the Bansione| would prove themselves equal to the task. Some are inclined to compare the present day Barsians with the French revolution«ries ́of the sighreshtli century. The comparison, however, is odions and ill-merited. Others sttribare the Russian debacle to the inade- quacy of war supplies that ex- isted in pre Revolution dars. This vein is also mistaken. The Bassians are
plentifully now provided with wer eapplies owing: to the resistance given by the Allies. The real cause of the Baseina degeneration is due to the poisonous influence exerted by the Workmen's and Soldiers' Council and so long as this com mitee remains at the head of the alministration the regeneration of the Ru-kisas can hardly be expected. In the meantime, a serious crisis in Rassis is grUW-" ing imminent owing to the Frarcity of food, the breakdown. of transport facilities, and the dislocution" of the system of ditibution.

State Premiere, at which the | Federal Government was uleo re- resented, has been bold to inquire into the possibility of stimulating the shipbuilding industry in the Commonwealth, on secount of the shortage of tonnage and, the: conecquent difficulty of abipping Austrii-a produce. It has been baggested that wooden vessela to be driven by oil engine might be built and that be engines might be manufactored in the Commonwasith. According to official statistics, the total value o the output of ship and boat building and repairing relsblish Wad mente in Australia in 1914 was's Thar little over £1,250,000 sterling, d and of this sum practically four set fifths-represented the output of establishments is New South Wales.
