With the declaration Of free har-
Dor, the use of the port also for inn
ports would be encouraged; this, it is
argued, would decreased freig hi
charges, and thus enable Vladivostok
port to compete successfully with
Dairen as transit port, particularly
for the trade in import goods to Man
churia.
A first-class free harbor could read
lily be organized in Vladivostok. where
goods could not only be transported
and warehoused, but preliminary
operations, such as purifying, sorting,
reweighing, and packing could be car
ried out.

The trial disclosed conditions in the

The court was in a hurry to cut short

that the stencil of the scandal dis

SLAVES OF The
COAL BARONS
TAKE TO BOOKS
May Study History from
Tut to Harrington
BY SCOTT NEARING
Federated Press staff Wrlter)

TAYLORyILLE, ILL.,, Nov. 17.-Ten
thousand miners in the fifth subdis-
trict Of Illinois. United Mine Work
ers of America are conducting a sig
nificant experiment in labor educa-
ton. Altho more than half Of the
mines in this territory are closed for
lack Of demand, these union men, in
the face Of a hard winter, have
reached the conclusion that their real
hope lies in awakening the rank and
file Of the organization to the under
lying and economic causes of the
hardship that is confronting them.
They propose to combat ignorance
and apathy with organized education.
The subdistrict convention, held
early in June. 1924, resolved to adopt
this course after listening to a report
from President William Daech. in
which he suggested an educational
committee and adoption Of vigorous
policy Of education for the rank and
file. A committee Of five was elected
from the floor Of this convention, a
former mine worker-Tom Tippet-
was secured from The Federated
Press as director of the experiment,
and in the blazing heat of an Illinois
August, the educational work was be-
gun.
Many Students.
Now, at the end Of three months.
there are more than $50 students,
grouped in 10 classes, and wei scat
tered over the district.
After a great deal of discussion, the
students decided to spend the first
three months on ancient history
supplemented by English and public
speaking. The next period will be
devoted to American history, par
ticularly the American labor move
ment.
Most of these students never fin
ished the grammar school, some went
to work when they were twelve years
of age, but they assemble, week after
week, discuss the topic of the even
ing, bring in compositions, do outside
work in the public Iibraries-in short
they act quite like other folks that
are interested in charging the boun-
daries of their knowledge.
Classes vs.. Saloon.
Labor education comes as some
thing Of an innovation in these Illinois
mining towns in which the saloon and
the movie palace have heretofore pre-
dominated. The regular schools in
this section are usually conducted by
quite young girls, whose education
has extended little beyond the high
school, and whose background is that
of the Illinois mining villages. There
are few forms of recreation and al
most no means of spreading en-
Ilightenment.
Hold Public Lectures.
Beginning with their October pro
gram, the educational committee in
addition to the regular classes is
bringing into the district prominent
teachers in fields related to the class
work, who not only conduct classes
but hold public lectures in the mine
villages where the classes have been
organized. The public lectures will
spread the work of education to the
whole village.
There seems to be no limit to the
work this educational committee may
do except that set by the funds of
the union and the interest and cap
acity of the students, most of whom
are under 80, and all of whom are
looking for way out of the tangled
maze of economic vassalage in which

Justice Fugitiue
BY the Associated Press.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, October s.
After 90 years as a fugitive from
justice, oliver Cameron, 81, was
convicted here yesterday for as
sault with intent to kill. He was
faced by William j. Gay, 50, whom
Cameron thought he had killed.
Indictments against Cameron
long had been dusty in the court
files when a report came from Port
land, Ore, of his attempted suicide
because of remorse over BirminS-
ham murder in 1902.
Immediate steps were taken to
bring Cameron to Birmingham for
trial.
Quarrels over the sale of land by
Cameron's landlady to Gay led to
the shooting, the testimony today
showed. Cameron made no attempt
to mitigate the offense, being hap
py that his mind could at last be
freed of the always impending
claims of justice.
Sentence was withheld until Sat.
