Washington, D. c.-The McNary-
Haugen export corporation bill was
finally killed in the house by the over
whelming vote of 224 to 154. Imme-
diately the republican steering COM
mittee granted an audience to repre-
sentatives Of the agricultural districts,
resulting in the decision to have a new
bill drafted by which the war finance
corporation would be authorized to
purchase all of the exportable surplus
Of the 1924 wheat crop and swine,
also the products of wheat and swine,
with a view to stabilizing the pro
ducer's prices. The president also
would be empowered to declare an en-
barge on either Of these staples. The
authority of the war finance corpora
tion would run to July 1, 1925, while
the McNary-Haugen bill provisions ex-
tended over five years.

RUSSIAN CHIEF
LENINE IS DEAD
Long Sickness Proves Fatal to
Chief-Soviets Hold
Up News.

Moscow-Nicolai Lenine, premier
of Soviet Russia, is dead.
The end came at $50 o'clock Mon
day afternoon, but the death was not
announced for some time afterward.
Lenine's death occurred at his
country villa near Moscow, where he
has been living in retirement. 1t
came after a sudden turn for the
worse, eliminating in a stroke which
paralyzed his respiratory organism.
News of his death, while not unex-
pected to those who had been closest
to him in the Soviet counsels, came
Unexpectedly at this time to the
great majority.
Death of Premier Lenine leaves do
nestle political affairs, and foreign
relations of Russia in a tangled state.
Following as it does the virtual dis
appearance of Leon Trotzky from the
affairs of the Communist party, and
Secretary Hughes recent rejection Of
trade relations with the United
States, it appears probable that re-
moval of his influence will further in
crease the chaotic state of affairs.
Lenine, lawyer, pamphleteer, and
finally dictator of all Russia, was the
organizer and chief exponent of the
movement which became known as
Bolshevism, and which he character
lied as the great experiment.; the
dictatorship of the proletariat."

Red Light Irresistible
Lure for Insect Pests

A means for combating the winged
insect pests of tropical regions has
been evolved, by means of which the
flying bugs are lured into a deadly bath
Of acid and either drowned or asphyxi-
ated by the fumes.
1t was found that a red light served
as an almost irresistible lure for the
night-flyers. A red electric bulb. or a
lantern with a red globe, is placed neal
the vessel containing the acid solution.
AS the pests fly to the light the fumes
destroy them, even though they may
not actually fall into the bath.
To protect human beings from pos
sible accidental contact with the acid
bath, the liquid is placed in a wide
mouthed bottle, to which is attached a
funnel with a very broad fiaring cone.
The light Is suspended directly I'VE
this funnel, and the insects, stupefied
by the acid fumes. fall into it and SO
into the acid bath.

Synthetic Sugar Made
by Australian Scientist

An Australian scientist
that in his laboratory he has been able
TO produce a synthetic sugar which
differs In no way from the product Of
the cane. Experts, according to the re-
port, have been unable to distinguish
between the artificial product and the
genuine grown variety.
The actual process of manufacture Is
at present a carefully guarded secret.
The principal difficulty 70 be overcome
was the producing, in the laboratory
and by chemical means, the condensa-
ton of certain elements which is eff
fected by sunlight during the growth OF
the cane In the field. Careful expert
mentation has solved the problem, says
the inventor of the process, reproducing
perfectly the actual conditions OF
growth.

Ships to Hours Steaming Distance.
London-The British dominions

Of the Anglo-American liquor treaty,

eminent. The draft thus approved
had been agreed upon by the London

The document now only awaits sig

will meet with any serious opposi-
ton. The treaty is a brief, business
like document, confined to a half a
dozen terse clauses. The area within
which the American authorities are
to have the right to search British
ships for contraband spirits is limit
ed to one hours steaming distance
from shore. British passenger ves-
sells have the reciprocal right to

What We Forget

Is and so

Schools teach, and nearly every home applies
the rule against coffee and tea for children.
When middle age comes, a great many
people remember the facts about the caffeine
drug Of coffee and tea, and how its regular use
may disturb health. Often they have cause to
remember what it has done to them.
How much better it would be not to forget
and avoid the penalties!
Postum is a pure cereal beverage-delightful,
and safe for any age-at any time. Good Tor
breakfast at home, for all the family; good for
lunch at the club or restaurant; good with the
evening meal; good with a late night dinner
good on any occasion. Postum satisfies, and it
never harms.
Whynot be friendly with health, aHthe time?

PLANT PART
OF SCAB RULE
Hatred of Labor Unions
Marks Firms Policy

The Western Electric Compa-
ny is part of the electrical trust
of the world.
The Western Electric has the
largest single plant manufacture
ing electrical equipment. This is
the Hawthorne plant between
Chicago and Cicero, where 49,
600 workers go each day to
slave for the electric trust of the
world.
Western Electric is also part of the
world-choking money trust Of ]. P.
Morgan and Company.
Worldwide Scab Plan.
Western Electric, thru it's Industrial
and financial affiliations, covers the
globe with its anti-labor policies,
piece-work speed-up system. and strict
open-shop non-union plan.
The American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company control Western Elec-
trio. directly. American Telephone and
Telegraph owns or controls practical
ly all the telephone systems in Amer
lea and in all other countries, thru its
licensing arrangement. 1t has sup
planted the American Bell Telephone
Company, which it absorbed few
years ago.
Alexander Bell, the American who
invented the telephone, died a COM
paratively poor man, but the Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany which has been built upon his
first invention, wakes fatter in money
profits and wider investments each
year.
In 1909, the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company acquired con-
troll OF Western Union. The govern
ment of the United States politely
chided the company under the anti
trust laws and the marriage was sup
posed to dissolve. However, the di-
vorce was not complete, for the COM
panies are cousins thru their relations
in the General Electric Company and
in J. P. Morgan and Company.
Three of the directors of the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany, which controls the Western
Electric, are also directors Of the
General Electric Company, surface
rival of Western Electric. These
men are George f. Baker, G. P. Gard
ner and Philip Stockton.
Oliver Ames. director of General
Electric, is also a director of the
Western Union; so the relationship
between Western Electric, thru Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph and
General Electric. to Western Union is
only little more removed on paper
than in 1909. The divorced wife mere

The DAILY WORKER reporter
stood in little line at the hiring

Italian, with large mustache, who,
evidently understood little English.
He was a middle aged man, who
seemed to have had all the spirit

lea. In front of the Italian was a
younger lad, who boosted of a course
in a school of engineering. The men
were applying for one job which was
open in one of the assembling de-
partments.
Me, Mister, Take Me!
While the young man was being in
terviewed, the Italian leaned over the
rail and pleaded, me, Mister, take
me. Me, mister, mel" "All right,
you're hired" said the employment
manager. The Western Electric hires
those who are most eager for jobs.
They will not hire Jews because, as
one OF them explained, Jews are

up with Jews, the men here would
