TO STABILIZE FIRE

timber bosses induced the government
of this province to stabilize" at a
starvation rate the wages paid forest
fire fighters Now they have become
chary of enforcing the governments
edict, under which regular fire fighters
were to be paid at the rate Of 25 cents
an hour and hoard while foremen were
to receive 80 cents an hour and board.
The government measure provided a
fine Of $500 or Imprisonment up to
sir months fol any person refusing to
fight fires under these conditions.
Several forest fires h re started in
camps throughout the province, but in
no case have the men fighting them
been paid at the government rate as
the logging companies have too much
at stake at present to endanger their
timber holdings by refusing an ade-
quate wage.

Grafton is repeated until the string is
full. By the use of the shuttle de-
vice one man can string the ears as
fast as two can working without it.
Objections to this hanger are that ears
fall out and one ear cannot be remOv-
ed without tearing down the entire
hanger.
Other Hangers
Woven wire tackled on both sides of
frame work, made preferable of
four inch material makes a handy
seed corn rack. Lath tackled four
inches apart on each side of fOur-inch
uprights makes a desirable rack. Each
pair of lath accommodates 25 or more
ears. Such a rack five feet in height
holds 400 ears.
Other good devices are made by
driving nails into boards, poles or
posts, over which the butts of the ears
are thrust. These hangers are known
as seed corn trees. A large number
of devices for storing seed corn have
been offered on the market. Many of
them give good satisfaction and may
be used by those who do not care to
devise a method of their own.

NORTHWEST LUMBER
STRIKE LOOMS
BY ART SHIELDS
Federated Press Staff Correspondent.

Seattle.-A tieup of the lumber in
dustry Of the Pacific northwest is look
ed for before the end of the summer
by industrial observers. The strike,
if it comes, will be called by the l. w.
w. lumber workers. organization and
will put the release of political pris-
.ohers at the head of its list of de-
mands.
Release of class war prisoners is
urged as the sole strike demand by
the union branch at Centralia, Wash,
the center of long log operations.
This issue is Invest at the Centralia
district because seven local loggers
are serving long terms at Walla Walla
for defending their union hall against
American Legion raiders in 1919. The
Centralia branch has a committee
carrying on the strike agitation in the
surrounding camps and claims that a
95 per cent shutdown can be effected
as in the last walkout. From Astoria,
Ore, Raymond, Wash, and other
clearing houses of union activities
come similar reports.
Representative I. w. w. declare
that this is a strategic time to call a
strike. The demand for lumber MS
never so strong as this year because
of the construction boom. Employers
are behind contracts in deliveries.
Unionists assert that this shortage
was accentuated by the April-May
strike and by the jOb-strike or slow
down policy which was adopted on re-
turn to work in those camps where
they were strongest. The lumber ed
itor of the Seattle Post Intelligence
says in a recent issue that hardness
of lumber deliveries can be partly
blamed on wobbly job-strike tactics.
! The lumber workers union has beer
; one of the strongest units of the l
! w. w. for several years. 1t reached
its climax in the long summer strike
of 1917, which brought the eight-houl
day in he camps, but the wartime
| prosecutions that followed set it back
again. Two years later the wobblies
were gaining renewed strength in the
woods till the Centralia raid anC
wholesale arrests in the northwest
slowed up their activity. A third per
iOd of growth came with the industrial
boom and the increased demand fol
lumber. Officials say the organiza
ton is now in better shape than i
has ever been.

gagged by the other side two weeks ago
According to this, he was engaged one
week before the crime was committed.
Hundreds Of affidavits now available
show that Dolla had witnesses to
shatter every point made against him
by the Steel Trust lawyers. On the
night he was charged with being with
the dynamiters he spent the evening
with friends several miles from the
scene of the explosion. When he was
supposed to be pointing out the house
to be blown up, the records of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
show that he was out of the town on
a work train. Testimony of the stool
pigeons at the trial was contradicted
by dozens Of witnesses. On every
point material was at hand to shatter
the entire frameup.
According to information received
by the American Civil Liberties Union,
Dolla is confined in little, damp ce-
ment floor cell % hours a day IN

DOLLA CASE TO GET SECOND
HEARING IN SEPTEMBER
FATE OF STEEL TRUST FRAMEUP VICTIMS STILL IN
HANDS OF PENNSYLVANIA BOARD OF PAR
DONS.

The case of Jacob Dolla, Pennsyl-
vania steel worker, now serving the
fourth year of his II to II year SEN
tence in the Eastern Penitentiary of
Pennsylvania, on a frameup charge of
dynamiting a house in Lebanon, Pa,
win come up for a second hearing be-
fore the State Board of Pardons in
September, the American Civil Lii
berries Union reports. At the first
hearing on the DOlla case, held June
10th, pardon was held up for advise
ment simply because one of the Board
resented the charge that the state pO-
lice had participated in the frameup.
Dolla's crime was organizing the
foreign workers in the great steel
strike of 1919 In order to get him
out of the way, the steel trust hired
stool pigeons to trump up a dynamite
case and then, when arrested to lay
the guilt of the crime against Dolla.
The steel trust hired a battery of
lawyers to assist the prosecution of
DOlla. The accused was unable to get
legal aid and was told that his case
was hopeless.

crime was committed" Dolla states.
