HEARST PAPER
FAVORS TRADE
WITH RUSSIA

The American Labor Alliance for
Trade Relations with Russia sends
the following editorial from the
New York American, Hearst's big
gest daily paper, in answer to a re
cent statement of Norman H. Davis,
Under of State, regarding
Russian conditions:
Before our intelligence was
irugged with propaganda, no one
worId have dared to tell a commit
tee of the Senate, for the purpose
Of circulating it through the coun-
,ry, that a region occupying one
sixth of the dry land of the earth,
practically uneXploited by man,
with mineral resources and wealth
of arabic soil beyond anything now
left in the world, was an econ
omic void
'If it were like our own great
West after the Civil War, prac-
;ically void of people to develop
the land, still Russia could be no
more an economic void than was
our own West.
eff there were not a soul in
Russia, her enormous tracts of tim
ber, whose natural increase every
year is sufficient to take care of the
worlds use of timber, the wealth
of minerals in her mountains, the
fish in her mighty rivers, the fes-
tility of that vast belt of black soil
which stretches across the great
Russian Empire, more alluvial than
anything we have in America, and
the capacity of her great plains to
support cattle, make of Russia an
immense space as opposite from a
void as solid substance can be.
"But when you add to this enor-
nous natural wealth the presence
upon the soil of nearly two hun
lred millions of the white race.

by nature to civilization in any
other period of human history with
which we are acquainted.
"The nonchalance with which
these cheap little nobodies from the

people such obvious nonsense as
this, that Russia is an economic

panic in 1914, and a very slight in
crease of trade with France and
England on account of war orders
saved us from panic then. Trade
with Russia could soon be ten times
greater than the war orders of Eng
land and France in 1914.
"Peace in Russia and the re-
sumption of trade relations with
her would have as great and as
beneficial an effect upon American
prosperity as the opening up of

impetus of prosperity during the

OLYMPIA, Feb. 26.-Every per-

feet will come under state inspec-

Congressional Investigations are
tiresome and frequently futile un-
dertakings, but occasionally they de
velop information of real value.
For many months Senate commit
tees have been probing into the
methods Of coal operators and have
revealed a mass of material that
stamps these business pirates as
the greediest, most merciess of all
our crop of proflteerS. 1t has been
proven, quite beyond reasonable
question, that they took more than
a billion dollars to which they had
no legal or moral claim. They loot
ed consumers right and left, through
manipulation of prices and supplies.
When they were placed in positions
Of public trust and confidence they
employed them to their personal
profit. Taken by and large, they
are bad lot.
But even more important than
the knowledge Of what has been
done to the people-there is no real
news in these revelations, for every
consumer Of fuel knows to his sor-
row what has been done-is the
scheme employed by coal men to
make exploitation simple as well as
profitable. According to their own
testimony, they buncoed the public
into believing, at a time when there
were few orders for fuel, that a
serious famine impended and started
competition in buying that sent
prices higher than ever before.
Congressman Huddleston, Of Ala
bama, presented to the Senate Com
mittee on Manufacturers, consider

two alternatives - a reduction of
price or the closing down of many
mines that were without orders.

have been embarrassing, the di-

Duncan Declines
The Nomination

Several unions have nominated
James A. Duncan, Secretary of the
Seattle Labor Council, for the Of
flee of President of the State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor despite his an
nouncement that he is not a candi-
date. Brother Duncan says:
''In my letters to parties asking
if l would consent to enter the
race, | made it plain that did
not desire any state federation Of
flee. My reason for this is that |
much prefer to be of service to the
labor movement in position where
the contact with the industrial field
is much more pronounced than
would be the case if holding state
federation office.
"The functions of the state fed
GRAFTON are more largely on the po-
litical and legislative fields than on
the industrial. OF course all these
activities are vitally necessary but
my preference for service is the in
dustrial field. | have asked the
Federation to remove my name as
a candidate"

Lumber Boss Tries
To Buy Men in Union

Striking logging engineers at
Clear Lake Tuesday charged r. r.
Lewis, manager of the Clear Lake
Lumber Company, with having tried
to bribe members of the local to
act as spies in union meetings.
Members of the local say they have
positive evidence showing that Lewis
offered to pay men for obtaining
inside information regarding union
affairs.
Refusing to permit Lewis to run
one of their members out of the
camp, the union men have gone on
strike and tied up the operation of
the plant.
Lewis recently announced a big
slash in wages. Conferences were
held and a settlement was reached
whereby the men were to return to
work.
At the close of the negotiations
and after the wage scale question
had been settled, Lewis announced
that one member of the local would
not be taken back. He declared the
man was a radical and that he must
leave the camp.
Negotiations were at once broken
off, the local standing solidly be-
hind the proposition that the OBJ
iectionable man was acceptable to
the union and must be employed.

Hoover Lectures on
Waste in Production

A staggering array Of wastes in
production were listed by Herbert
Hoover in an address before the
convention of the American En-
gineering Council These wastes
include unemployment, lost time
due to labor conflicts. losses in labor
turnover, poor cooperation of
great industries, failure in trans
portation and coal and power sup
plies, lack Of standardization, to
speculation, to mismanagement, to
inefficient national equipment and
hundred other causes. The
speaker declared that there is no
such thing as over production.
I'VE know he said, that we
are insufficiently housed, insuffi-
ciently equipped in our public roads
and public utilities; that we need
an entire revision of our power
supply; that we need expansion of
our waterways, and yet armies of
idle men are walking the streets
