Two of Russia’s largest factories which manufacture munitions are already affected, and a number of workmen in other munitions factories are reported to have already struck for the six-hour day.

The main plant is located at Marietta, Ohio, where hundreds of men are employed in the manufacture of oii! tools. The company, it is understood, is planning the erection of a shop that will give employment te twelve men in Casper. General repair work will be done, and much difficulty attend- ant upon the securing of supplies will be eliminated.

The majority of registrants include those who have been in Casper but a short time, and who still retain their voting privilege elsewhere in the country where they claim permanent residence. Many others come under the recent ruling of the department providing fo rthe registration of peo- ple living in isolated precincts, while still others are employed in the oil fields of the county and maintain their residence in the city.
