The new declaration of the pro- gressive bloc will he elaborated by the leader of the constitutional dem ocratic party, Prof. Paul Mitukofi and by the leader of the nationalists, V. V. Shulgin. The progressive party, comprising he right wing of the progressive Jloc, suggested that the platform of he bloc ought to include a demand or a parliamentary government with responsible ministers. This proposal was not supported by a majority of the bloc. The progressives then asked that they be allowed to state their point of view immediately after the declaration of the bloc was read, but it was decided that the list of speak- ers be left in the hands of a co mittee. “The nationalists decided to state their position only after hearing the declaration of the loc. The social democrats and the labor party agreed to take part in the development of the bloc’s program only in case the government permits the newspapers 1o publish the speeches made in the Duma. Otherwise these parties wiil confine their activities to the sharp- est criticism of the government.” T i i | ¢ 3 t ¥ t f T WEDISH REPUBLICANS RALLY Rousing Meeting Planned for This Evening—Prominent Speakers The lid on the Swedish Republican circles will pried off this evening, when a meet- ing will be held in Electric hall.
