.CANUCK SAWMILL
BOSSES PLAN USE
OF APPRENTICES
Idea is to Supplant Adult
Workers
BY SYDNEY WARREN
Moderated Press staff correspon

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct. 13.-The saw
mill bosses at a recent meeting of
their organization, the Pacific North
west Millwork Assn, outlined a
scheme for the systematic exploita-
ton of boys under the guise Of an ap-
prentice system in the sawmills and
other woodworking establishments
throughout the Pacific northwest.
The meeting deplored the lack OF
efficiency shown by the adult work
ers and hit upon the idea of crystal
izing the enthusiasm of boys into
profits. The system is one that will
take the working class boy into a
sawmill or woodworking establish
ment upon his leaving school and
place him on probation for three
months II the boy is found satisfact
DRY an indenture is to be made be

period of four years at what is term

boys parents under the indenture
system are compelled to deposit sec

err should the apprentice not serve
out his indentured time.
The sawmill bosses were of the
opinion that manual training in the
schools was useless because the boys
who eventually found their way into
the sawmill seldom attended high
school, L. B. Travers, vocational su
pervisor for the state of Washington

BORAH'S SPEECH

Did He Boost Cal or Did
He Not?
BY LAURENCE TODD,
Federated Press staff Correspondent|

tFeoerateu Press SIAN CorreSponoentl
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-sen. Bo-
rah has been the author or the victim
of one Of the strangest mysteries Of
this campaign. kilograms from old
friends and from labor spokesman and
newspapers in the east are lombard

he solve 1t at once. Does he hold that
Cal Coolidge is the greatest man in
the political history Of the United
States" as the local correspondent OF
the Associated Press at Idaho Falls re-
ported he said in his speech on Oct.
Z, or did he denounce almost every
official act of Coolidge while refrain
ing from mentioning the name of the
G. o. P. nominee?
Didn't Mention Cal.
The New York Times printed long
account of the speech at Idaho Falls,
from a special correspondent" who
presumably was a local man, and this
account specified that Coolidge was
not mentioned at all The burden of
the argument, as shown by his dis
patch, was all anti-Coolidge.
Yet the Washington manager for
the A. P. vouches for the fact that
their Idaho Falls man quoted Borah
as paying this fulsome tribute to Cool
idge, and specifying that Coolidge had
curbed public extravagances by veto
ing the postoffice workers salary bill.
Moreover, the A. P. said that Borah
would "at the request Of chairman
Butler" Of the G. o. p, campaign in
California, Oregon and Washington.
FIaherty Qulzzes Borah.
Secretary Flaherty of the National
Federation of Postoffce Clerks has
wired Borah, asking why Borah. when
praising Coolidge for his attack on
the $2OO-a-year increase in pay for
the underpaid postal workers. did not
deplore the fact that Coolidge signed
the bill giving $1,000 year to the de-
partmental chiefs who had been get.
ting $4,000.
Most Of Borah's friends here, while
admitting that he is the most incon-
sistent and uncertain individual in the
senate, cannot believe that he endors-
ed Coolidge. It is common talk that
before he left the capitol he met a
spokesman of the progressive party
Of Idaho, who told him the progress
sives would nominate him as their
senatorial choice on one condition
that Borah stay out Of the Coolidge
LaFollette contest. II is not claimed
that Borah gave a formal pledge-he
is a master Of indecision in politics.
But he did accept the progressive
nomination and he did assail. in his
Idaho Falls speech. the attempt OF
the administration to cover up the
Fall and Daugherty scandals. That
he said that Coolidge sis the greatest
man in the political history Of the
United States" is so preposterous as

The Real Issue.
Hanover, Germany must be brought

The little affair in Berlin was arrang-

demonstrate that Germany was not
being led by the nose by Soviet Rus
STA. But there is the Rapallo treaty
and the historical association of Ger
many and Russia, and the natural al
lance Of Russian agriculture and Ger
man industry. This must be broken
up--for business reasons. It must be
broken up also for an altogether more
important reason. A united front must
be established against Soviet Russia
against the proIetarian revolution.
Poland, Roumania, czecho-Slovakia
Bulgaria, and Hungary are in the
eounter-revoIutionary line. Germany

dickering that is going on. Will the
league pay the price? 1t may or ii
may not-but Germany will be forced
to Join-unless, of course, revolution
breaks out in Germany and the sani-
tary Gordon will have to be raised fur
Their west. So the league may discuss
Germany's joining, and the imperial
lists may begin enforcing the Dawes
