EVERETTVILLE, w. Va.-(FP)-
That the coal operators mean to
fleece the scabs doubly by controlling
their purchases as well as their wages
is evidenced by the experience of
Dewey Miller, farmer living 21a
miles from Everettville. Miller com
plains to w. French Hunt, prosecut-
ting attorney, that he has been order
ed off the property and roads of the
New England Fuel and Navigation Co.
for selling apples and beans to the
local mining community.
Miller charges that his low prices
in the case of apples, his offering was
81 a bushel in contrast to IS per
bushel charged by the company--were
the cause. H. Clay Miller, a neighbor
of Dewey Miller, made similar com.
plant. The prosecuting attorney stat
ed he was powerless.

of Searnen's Officials

SYDNEY, Australia (FP) --Arising
out of the strike of British seamen in
Australia, Tom Walsh, president Aust
ralian Seamen's union, and Jacob
Johnson, assistant secretary, are being
tried by a special board appointed by
the Australian government to deter
mine whether they shall be 'deported
because of their support of the strik-
ers. The board consists Of individ-
uals chosen mainly because Of their
hatred of trade unionism. Many of
the large unions threaten strike if
the men are deported. The Labor
party announces that if the men are
deported they' will be compensated
and brought back to Australia when
Labor is elected to the federal gov
eminent. The prime minister was
howled down at big meeting at Mel
bourne Sept. 7.
The seamen say they will not
resume until the reduction Of SIS per
month Is cancelled. They say there
was no talk of the reduction when
they signed on at British ports and
they consider it unfair that the re-
duction should be enforced while they
are away. The rates are As to 471b

Tho great progress Of industry, ag-

In Russia was outlined by Carl Bran
min before a meeting Of students and
instructors of Antioch college and
town people in the opera house at
Yellow Springs. The speaker spent
the summer in Russia as a correspon-
dent for The Federated Press.
In every field of activity" said
Brannin, "one sees that the people
are learning to run their own affairs
The fact that capitalist exploitation
has been largely done away with and
production is for the benefit Of all
and not for private profit strikes one
with tremendous force wherever you
go. The people are getting the bene-
fits Of the revolution"
An effort to have Brannin speak
before the regular student assembly
failed after it was disclosed that he
was friendly to Russia, Recent adj
dresses by Scott Nearing and Paul
Blanshard had provoked protests by
employers and others who are the
mainstay of Antioch college financial
support. Recently the application of
a qualified colored student for admit
lance was refused.

the company pretends to demand only

The extra time is exacted in two
ways, first by keeping wages so low
that more than 8 hours work is ne
cessary to get a living wage, and
second by discharging men who do
not volunteer for overtime. The dis
charges are. always made on other
