Streets Of Soviet Capital
cIuttered by Gutter
Merchants

MOSCOW, Aug. IA change is
due to come over the spirit Of Mos
cows streets. The peddlers, who
sell everything from matches to I'M
derwear, and who clutter up the
sidewalks until pedestrians barely
have room to squeeze past, are to
be reduced In number.
No city in Europe boasts, or suf-
fers so many peddlers as the capt.
tai of the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics. Here, in the heart OF a
professedly c0mmunistic society,
which frowns, in theory, on all
forms of private enterprise, but par
ticularly on small ones, the public
thoroughfares have been virtually
surrendered to swarm OF small
merchants.
In the chief streets Of the city
Kuznetzl1y Most, Teatralny, Petrol.
ka and Tverskaya every inch OF
the sidewalks is lined with peddlers,
selling every conceivable article
small enough to be carried by hand.
Besides the food peddlers. who
constitute about one-fourth Of the
total, and the cigarette peiidlers,
who make up another fourth there
are thousands who dispose Of oi6tIl-
ing, household utensils, ieather
goods, flowers, books. brushes,
towels, coat.hangers and cutlery.
A class all to themselves are the
peddlers of pins. medals and post
cards bearing the portrait OF Lenin
on red flag background.

SEWARD OWNER WILLOW CREEK
 IS OPTIMISTIC
LARGE CLEANUP FROM WILLOW CREEK DISTRICT ARRIVE
 IN SEWARD SHORTLY

Harry Yago, we'll known in Seward as a restauranter, with his brother Tony, returned to town Thursday from three months prospecting trip in the Mellow Creek district, they being the owners of the Willow Creek Mining company The brothers left Seward May for their holdings and did considerable assessment work, developing the property to such an extent as to assure themselves of it's value.
 Some years ago MT. Yago and his brother drove a tunnel for 600 feet into the hill which bore out good pay, but they not being satisfied with the workings drove another tunnel, 115 feet about 15 feet below the big hole. The mine is located at the head of Willow Creek, between the Gold Bullion and Betty Martin claims, both the latter have been producing steadily for years.
 Referring to the Gold Bullion, MT. Yago stated this mine was being operated at full blast and that about 80 men are on the payroll. Milo Kelly's mine, near by, closed down this season.
 Mrs. Yago left Seward week ago to join her husband at Willow Creek, returning here with her husband Thursday. He feels quite optimistic over the future development of his property. Ore, he said, ran $S3 a ton with an outlook very promising. There have been a number of large cleanups in the district recently, all of which will shortly pass thru Sew ard on it's way to Outside depositor- ies.

Cheaper Beer Urged By British Brewers As
 Unemployment Aid

BRIGHTON, Aug. 26. (P-Cheap- CT beer has been suggested as one remedy for the unemployment iH En- gland that has been bothering suc- cessive governments since the war ended.
 At the annual meeting of stock holders of a large brewery recently the chairman said that the country was still overburdened with taxation and that the crying demand today was for cheaper beer, which, he con- tended, could only be given by re- ducing the tax upon that beverage.
 The chairman said that there are very few, including members of the government, who realize the number of industries which are dependent upon the brewery trade, and that re- duced taxation on beer would not only assist agriculture, but would go some way to meet the unemployment problem
