ject of protests and it was decided to
carry on an extensive trade union
propaganda in Central American coun-

terized the sessions on Monday was
entirely absent, debate being. for the
most part, perfunctory. There were a
number of short addresses expressing
congratulations to the officers of the
congress and Samuel Gompers, pres
ident of the federation. commended
the congress for it's faithful work and
its desire to serve.
Several delegates including Amer
lean representatives left Mexico City

WOLVES Ouerrun Michigan
Counties; No Trapping Done
CIV Associated Press

HOUGHTON, Mich, Jan. 19.-God-
FREY Lyon, representative of the
department of agriculture. has arrived
in this district as a field worker TO
study scientific methods of extermln-
ating wolves. He is dividing his time
between Houghton and Baraga coun-
ties.
Through investigation and study
made by the department ii is expected
that advanced methods will be develop
ed to insure greater success in the
trapping of wolves. A cunning animal
though cowardly except when travel
ing in packs or when hungry, the wolf
Is difficult to trap.
According the County Game Warden
Wilson, of Hougnton county. the clos
ing of the beaver season. while a
splendid thing for the beaver. has teen
n protection to wolves. Difficulties sur
rounding the trapping of wolves does
not make it a profitable business ex-
cept as a side issue. Another thing
favoring the wolf at present is the
drop in the price of furs. With low
prices prevailing, trappers are giving
their time to other work. AS a result
the wolf has full sway.

LONDON, Jan. 19.-The proposal by
the government to alleviate unemploy-
ment by big roadmaking and house
building schemes and other work OF
public utility is called inadequate by
the leaders of the unemployed.
Official returns give the number OF
registered voorhees, in the United
Kingdom on December 10 as 591,074,
an increase of 1921 during the pre-
ceding fortnight. London alone &C.
counts for 141,533 and the proportion
of men to women out of work is
roughly as to /.
Over a Million Idle.
Labor leaders say these figures are
incomplete. They declare that at
least 100000 other manual workers
and as many clerical workers are out
of jobs, though not on the government
books. These would bring up the work
less army to we'll over 100000 and.
counting their dependents, a grand
total is arrived at of close upon 4,500.-
