EDUCATION SHOWS
GREAT PROGRESS
IN The UKRAINE

KHARKov, Russia (FP) = STAN
dards of education are advancing rap
idly in the Ukrainian Workers Re-
public. Five years ago the country
was over-run by Yudenich, Denekin,
Wrangel and the counter-revolution
lists. Then came the famine of 1922.
In 1929 education in the Ukraine
was at its lowest point. Student en-
rollment In the elementary schools
had been 100000 in 1914 and 2,OOO,-
900 in 1921. In 1923 it stood at L.
100000.
That year the tide turned. Civil
war ended. The harvests improved.
Industry revived. The enrolment for
1924 was 100000; for 1925, 1850, 900.
The enrolment this fall (1925-26) will
exceed 100000, topping the highest
point of 1921 by per cent.
A similar story is told in the growth
of educational appropriations. In this
year, 1925-1926 fifty per cent of all
Ukrainian expenditures are being de-
voted to education. The total budget
for 1925-26 is almost exactly five
times the budget for 1922-1923.
Teachers are sharing largely in this
improvement. Their hours of work
are less; their housing is improved;
their food is far better. AS for their
wages, the Ukrainian village teacher
who received rubles month (ruble,
so cents) in addition to house, fuel
and food in 1929, Is rubles in 1924
and rs in 1924-5, in the 1926 budget
is receiving 80 rubles month. This
is still small amount, but it is near
ly four times four years ago.
The whole Ukrainian educational
system has been reorganized the past
four years. The Dalton plan, the
project method and a number of
other experimental ideas that have
been tried out here and there in other
countries are being tried also in the
Ukrainian republic on a vast scale.
The schools are being reconstructed
physically and educationally. All
children now work in groups. A child
incapable Of group work is looked
upon as abnormal and treated. The
normal child is the child who knows
how to associate with his fellows.
Economic revival has laid the foun.
dalton for a new educational system
that marks great advance steps for
the whole educational world.

sand miles till the boat tied up to the

rescue came and no emergency

Held Like chatteI Slaves.
Two other stories tell of the use OF
padlocked forecastles and chain
lockers as jails, in New York harbor
in defiance of the immigration laws
The first relates to the s. S. Cedric
White Star liner. Thirty sailors who
had taken part in the recent British
strike against the one-pound wage cut
were shipped out of England, at the
end of the strike, because their serv.
ices were needed, but penahzed by
falling in New York, under guard.
The other case is of three Italian
seamen on the S. S. Handicap, q
Norwegian boat, in from a Spanish
port. These men we're imprisoned in
the chain locker, under guard, on the
theory that they might desert, tho the
immigration law supposedly protects
seamen in a long period Of shore
leave and does not compel them tc
return on the same ship. The captain
feared he would have to ship out other
men at higaher rate.

PRAGUE, Czecho-slovakia, IRA)-
(By Mail)-The prosecutions Of
Czecho-slovakian workers, and espec-
tally the Communists, continues un-
abated in the republic dominated by
the philosopher, Masaryk.
A few OF the more recent persecu-
tions are made known in the list that
follows: Comrade Zapototzky has to
serve a sentence OF one and half
year Of hard labor. District Secretary
FLIP in Goeding was sentenced to one
year hard labor. Comrade Seidler and
his wife were both expelled from the
republic, the political editor OF the
Reichenberg Vorwaerts, Comrade Pol
lack, escaped the threatened delivery
to Horthy.
In Slovakia and in Carpato-Russia
the following cases are reported:
Comrade Eugen Fried, party secretary
in Kashau was sentenced to two years
and the Comrades Jerrelfalussy and
Hermann Loewy to one year each.
The former was sentenced on account
of statements that he has made at
the Fifth Congress of the Communist
International in Moscow and the lat
ter on the basis Of frame-up OF
spies.
In Kashau in the course Of the last
months, "a officials Of the labor
movement have been sentenced 10 a
total Of II years of hard labor. The
nearer the parliamentary elections ap-
proach, the more the white terror
against the workers Is increased.

CRIBBEN-SEXTON
POLISHEUS ARE
STILL STRIKING
StOUe Workers Demand
Union Recognition

Tho tenth week Of the metal polish
srs' strike against cribben, Sex
ton a company, Sacramento boule-
ward and Chicago avenue, reveals the
customary cooperation Of the police
and prosecutors office with the cor
poratlon against the workers. The
company; manufacturers Of Universal
stoves, ranges and furnaces, started
out in a suspicious manner on the
eve Of the strike by declaring to the
union officials:
I'VE will have no gunner in the
strike"
Attack PIckets with Knives.
Since then union pickets have been
attacked with knives, company ag-
ents have set fire to a residence to
frame up an arson plot against the
strikers, bombs have been planted
and well-known gunner and sluggers
are busy for the company inside and
outside its premises.
The manufacturers Of the Universal
products first went open shop and then
kept their piece work rates so secret
that the men did not know what they
had coming to them at the end OF
the week. The organized polishers
and buffers threatened to strike, and
made good on their threat when the
company refused to promise fair and
stable piece rates and tolerable con-
ditions.
Thugs Beat Strikers.
The pickets were roughed by COM
pany thugs almost from the first day
and the violence has grown stronger
as the company found it impossible to
get the work out in It's plant. Some
of its polishing has been sent to De-
triot and some to the Chicago Plating
company, 1851 West Superior St.,
where the union is also picketing with
good results.
Police Protest Gunner.
One of the pickets, who was as
saulted with a knife, attempted to get
a warrant against the professional
gunman with prison record who had
attacked him but the authorities in
their customary conspiracy with the
employers refused to issue it.
Danger to life and arrest from
overzealous police is only sharpening
