COMPULSORY LABOR IN
 BULGARIA

According to new regulation re- gently published in the Bulgarian Off, cial Journal, any municipality which needs labor for its local work may ob- tain minimum of 50 persons from the Compulsory Labor Office, with maxi mum which may not exceed the number of persons at work in the municipality in question. Municipalities are bound to pay to the Office the wages of the laborers and their foremen in two in- stalments, the first before the despatch of the laborers, and the rest after the work is done. They are also required to see to their maintenance, feeding, clothing, etc, according to scale fixed by. the Office. The period of service cannot be less than two months nor more than six months per annt1m.
 Special interest in this experiment in labor legislation has taken from the start by the International Labor Office which, in 1922, published an important report by Mr. Max Lazard on Compul- sory Labor Service in Bulgaria

Pro-Labor
 Candidates Win Nicaragua Election

By International Labor News Service.
 Managua, Nicaragua, Oct. Is (By Cab1e).-Election returns now indicate sure plurality for the Nationalist ticket, Solarzano for president and Sacasa for vice-president. (This is the ticket supported by President Mar tinez, under whose brief regime work CTS have for the first time been a1- lowed to organize freely.)
 The defeated candidates, Chamorro and Corea, are tirelessly seeking to create trouble Signatures are being sought to petition to the American government for the establishment here of military government Such petition, under Nicaraguan law, consti. tutes treason. s
 It is charged freely that Corea ob- tained financial aid from big American corporations and plans to sail for the United States to press claims that his candidacy was discriminated against.
 The election was the first free and fair election held here for many years. Labor, which supported Solarzano and Sacasa, is rejoicing.
 A representative of the Pan-Amer- ican Federation of Labor, MT. H. L. Brunson, visited Nicaragua early this summer and assisted materially in the organization of the workers in Nicara- qua Canuto A. Vargas, Spanish language secretary of the Pan-Amer- ican Federation of Labor, Is now en route home after similar effort. It is confidently expected that a strong 1 lNicaraguan trade union movement Twill be represented at the Pan-Amer- ican Federation of Labor convention to be held in Mexico City December 3. The effect of organization in Nicaragua and of the election of pro- gressive president in that country will 1t is generally believed, be felt through all Central America.

ANTI-UNIONIST IS
 AGAIN IN LnMELIGHT

Philadelphia, Oct, 25-The senate committee that is investigating campaign collections has cited Samuel Vauclain, president of the Edwin locomotive works.
 MT. Vauclain is an ardent advocate of the Coolidge candidacy, and is just as ardent in his hatred of trade unionism. In speech at New Orleans he de- clared that they way to stop strikes IS to discharge workers and jail trade union officials. The Baldwin locomotive works is one of the most notorious sweat shops in the country. The con- tract system is general and mulhpll- city of contractors employ their own labor and arbitrarily set wages, with workers having no voice in the trans action
 Two years ago the interstate com merce commission made report on the manner in which this company and the Pennsylvania railroad, another bitter an ti-union corporation, gouged the pub lie in repairing 200 locomotives. The to- i tai gouge was approximately $3,OO,0OO and the excess ranged from $l1 900 te l S16,0O0 for each locomotive. The com. mission reached this conclusion by using the cost figures of the shops of the Pennsylvania railroad. ab
 The railroad claimed it could not de the work in its own shops, but this thu commission denied. The contract wa signed 10 days after federal control O railroads was terminated.
 The commission found that some O the Edwin work was defective, an, when it was properly repaired, the rail road paid for it the second time.
 MT. Vauclain is now preaching tn doctrine of Why Changer"

FOREIGN BORN VOTERS NOW TOTAL
 OVER SIX MILLION
European Sentiment Could Control Election If It Was More
 Centered.

Nearly 6,500,0 900 men and women born in foreign countries are qualified to vote for President on Nov. 4, against 6,274,193 of four years ago. A fear is sometimes expressed that "alien senti- ment" may swing the election in some states, or in the nation at large, and this might possibly happen, if all the immigrant voters lived in few crucial states and were disposed to support the same candidate, comments fhe Foreign Language Information Service, which has just completed general survey of the foreign vote with an ad- vance analysis of it's probable trend.
 The immigrant vote, it is shown, is widely scattered through Republican, Democratic, Progressive and doubtful territory, and there is good reason to suppose that foreign voters as whole will divide their support as generally as their native-born neighbors. The sur vey says:
 New York tops the list with 1,l53,- SIS immigrant voters. New York casts a vote that Is PA per cent. foreign born, yet it is nearly always in doubt before election. Massachusetts, with its still greater foreign-born vote, IS normally Republican. Illinois and Michigan are rarely conceded by either old party to its opponent until the votes are counted. These four states have immigrants from all parts of Europe and Canada, engaged in every calling.
 Pennsylvania, with more than half-million immigrant voters,> drawn mainly from Central, Southern and i Eastern Europe, and employed largely in mining and machine industry, ad- heres almost as strictly to the Repub- Ecan party as seven Southern states with less than per cent. of immigrant voters do to the Democratic party
 One hears often of the foreign-born voters in Missouri, yet they constitute only 6 per cent. of the states total But Utah, which nearly always glves it's support to the same party, even when that party is divided elsewhere has 16 per cent. of foreign-born voters Connecticut and New Jersey, with about one-ffth of foreign-Dorn voters in each, are not noted tor anything alien in their politics"

CANADIAN WORKERS
 STICK TO A. F. OF L.

Proponents of withdrawal of the Trades and Labor Council of Canada controlling body of the organized labor movement in the Dominion-from the American Federation of Labor were defeated during the convention of the council.
 The separatists admitted with drawal from the A. F. of L. would weaken that organizations numerical strength by more than 100000 and would impair the solidarity of the labor movement on the North Ameri- can continent, but they asserted that Canadian trades unionism has little to gain by the continuance of the alliance.

COLLEGE EDUCATION
 VALUED AT $72,OOO

Boston, Oct 25-A' college education is worth $72OO0 to it's possesor. accord ing to a report made public by Dean Everett w. Lord of the Boston univer- sity. The estimate is based on study of the earning capacity of college grad uates. The cash value of high school education is placed at $33,00O
 The report gives the average maxi mum yearly income of the untrained man as $1 200; that of the high school graduate, $2,2OO, and of the college grad uate, 5000. The total earnings of each of the three types, Up to the age of GO, are placed at $45,OOO, $78,0Oo and $780, 900, respectively. While the untrained man at the age of 50 begins to drop to- ward dependence, the college man reaches his maximum earning at 60.
 I "The untrained man goes to work as a boy of IA and reaches his maximum income at the age of 30," the report said "This maximum is, on the average less than $1 200 year. In view of the fact that this income is earned through i manual labor,. dependent. on physical strength, it begins to fall off at the age of SO, or even earlier, and soon reaches level below self-support. The figures show that more than 60 out of every 100 untrained workers are dependent upon others for support at the age of 60
 "The total earnings of the untraineo man from IA to 60 are about $45,O00 Between the gaes of IA and 18, the fou1 years which might have been spent 1T high school, the young man usuall. earhs not more than 5000" .~
