MAY F|RST" IS OPENING DATE
 OF LOCAL MILL
Improvements to Be Made at Plant of Juneau Lumber
 Co. Before Saving Starts

That considerable work on the improvement of the plant of the Jul. near Lumber Mills will be started soon, and that the plant will be in operation May l, is the news learned today from the local representative of that company. Among the jim provements contemplated is the in stallation of a motor to drive the big head saw and the elimination of the steam engine .now doing that work.
 The starting date of the mill is approximately a month later than in previous years principally because of new work contemplated and the curtailment of many lumber orders from the canneries. As a rule the mill starts cutting lumber on the can nery orders previous to the opening of their plants. Owing to the re stricted activities of the canneries there will be few orders from that source this season.
 With several booms of logs i'm. pounded at the Bar it will not be necessary to make any long hauls until sometime after actual saving has started t4 t E <

Or Juneau s 
 Waterfront

Approximately fifty thousand pounds of halibut is in port today on eight fishing boats awaiting sale and some Of the fish may be diverted to Ketchikan if more favorable prices can be obtained there. The price offered here this morning was and cents pound.
 Four boats arrived in port last night with capacity cargoes. being the Gypsy, Ocean, Pilgrim and Celtic, other boats that were already here were the .Orien, Emma, r-T 4so and and Ida. S-
 Owing, it is said, to the demoral- ized market at Seattle and Prince Rupert, the price dropped from 13 cents paid two weeks ago, on the last trip of the boats to this port to the price of 8 cents quoted to- day and several of the boat owners said today that if favorable reports were received from cablegrams to Ketchikan, they would leave for that place with their cargoes.

 Differences between the two wings of the old party were sharply ac- centuated by the representatives af the Soviet regime, who defended terrorism on the grounds of its ne- cessity at the beginning of a revo- lution and strongly supported the absolute dictatorship of the prole- tariat Through these arguments the right wing Socialists sat silent except when some statement greatly angered them; but the radicals ex- galleries supported them with ap- plause and "The Internationale' ire quently was sung by a chorus of hundreds who stood at attention until the martial music ceased.
 Girls Demonstrative,t .,,
 Among the delegates on the con vention floor and in the crowded galleries were many women and girls. These appeared to be about equally divided in their allegiance, but the supporters of the Moscow ad- herents were more demonstratiye. The speeches of the delegates often were interrupted by thin-voiced pro tests of girls wearing the red button of the revolutionaries, and women and girls always joined in the sing ing of the proletariats anthem. The dull gray uniforms of former privates in the army were cOnspicu- ous in the galleries and those who wore them all seemed to know the words of "The Internationale" The more influential leaders of the extreme radicals are gray-hair- ed. veteran Socialists, who have been closely identified with government circles since the German revolution Others are young and eloquent dis trict labor leaders, who have been brought into prominence since the war by strikes and industrial dis turbances
 We are willing to subscribe un conditionally to the red program | to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat" young radicals said tc correspondent 1 Terror Advocated
 "We don't want to be moderate We won't be There will be enough killing in the next revolution tC spread a wholesome terror amont the bourgeoise. A revolution can not. be accomplished in kindly soft-mannered fashion. Blood mus flow and we are willing to sheC our share of it. We are fighting ! system that has hundreds of year of organization back of it. If i life or death for the proletariat ant the issue here has been drawn"
 The plan of the radical leaders as near as can be learned is t form organizations in the severa districts and have them prepare to cooperate when the call goes out They say that if their first onslaugh gives show of success, 5,000,0OO Gel mans will rally to their cause quickly and support them.
