MINER RUSHED SIS
FROM COUNTRY !
BY GOVERNMENT
Class Prisoner Leaves
! Wife and A Children

NEW YORK CITY, July 2O-The
quick deportation Of Tony Stafford,
union miner Of Italian birth who was
taken from Moundville prison, fore
stalled efforts made by international
Labor Defense in New York to stay
the governments action. Stafford had
served FIVE years in Moundsville on
charges growing out of frame-up
during a coal strike in West Virginia.
He was an official Of the United
Mine Workers Union. He was taken
from prison by government agents,
lodged in Pittsburgh County jail until
last Monday from where he was
rushed to Ellis Island and shipped
aboard the Giuseppe Verdi which
sailed on Wednesday for Naples.
He leaves a wife in West Virginia
and four children who had not seen
him for six years. The international
Labor Defense acted In the case as
soon as it got word, but the record
breaking time in which the deporta-
tion was effected prevented its being
stopped.

OFTEN HARD TO

Minnesota Federation
Bemoans Endorsements

ST. PAUL, July 19.-(FP)-"Legis-
lators elected with the Endorsement
and active support OF the organized
labor movement should at least CO.
operate in the efforts to secure labor
legislation and to prevent adverse le-
gislation being enacted" complains
the legislative committee, Minnesota
State Federation of Labor, in report
ing on the 1925 session.
Unfortunately this has not uni
formly been the case. In some in
stances even members from strong
labor districts not only failed to CO.
operate but openly opposed and critic
lied the action of labor's committee in
carrying out the instructions Of con-
ventions.
Frankly speaking we cannot say
that labor received much in the way
OF legislation from this session. The
program Of legislation which we were
instructed to prepare and present, as
well as those bills which we were
instructed to cooperate in having
enacted into law met with very little
response" W
The 1925 Minnesota legislature was
predominantly republican with a
farmer-labor minority.

HONOLULU, T. H. (By MaiD The
writs Of habeas corpus issued by
Judge De Bolt in the Crouch-Trumbull
case were made returnable the 25th
of June On that date Counsel Pat
terson who had been retained by the
International Labor DEFENSE, for the
imprisoned soldiers appeared in court
ready to take up the case. The army
authorities failed to appear or to pro-
duce the bodies Of Crouch and Trum-
bull as ordered by the court. The
judge hastily ordered a continuance to
July 2 and transferred the case TO an
other judges calendar
In view of the failure Of the army
authorities to obey the writ, Patter-
son moved that they be made perman-
ent and that the soldiers be released
from Fort Shafter guard house. The
judge denied the motion. Later the
judge withdrew the writs and served
an order on the commanding general
to show cause, and the cause again
continued.

Young Prisoner at
Leavenworth Claims
Government Frame-Up

KANSAS CITY, Mo, July 20.-A
representative of International Labor
Defense visited Alexander Kahn, mill
tary prisoner in Leavenworth peniten-
tiary serving a 2O-year sentence. Kahn
is twenty-six years old and has been
in prison eight years. He was one Of
the seventeen who were tried by court
martial in 1918 and found guilty of
the murder of another prisoner in the
disciplinary barracks at Leavenworth,
where all of them were serving short
sentences for slight military infrac-
tons.
Kahn claims that the murder was
an accident that grew out of fist
fight between two prisoners. The one
who was killed was a stool-pigeon who
had been discovered by the others.
The seventeen were tried and found
guilty, Kahn said, as an example to
the rest of those held in the barracks,
many of whom were c. O.'s.
The record of the court martial,
which Kahn can produce, is filled with
irregularities of nature not tolerated
in the civil courts. The original SEN
tence was death, but was later COM
muted to life and then to twenty
years. Nine of the seventeen have
been released.

Accompanying Lovin is the mana
ger Of the technical department of the
Moscow combination of state electric
al stations, known for short as
"MOGES," Boris A. Barsukov. Dur.
ing their stay in this country the re.
representatives. of the Soviet electrical
industries will have their. headquart-

Electric Capacity Doubles
In his statement Lovin pointed out
that, while the electrical industries
in the Soviet Union are still in their
infancy, plans for electrification have
been pushed ahead at a rapid pace
during recent years and the capacity
Of the electrical stations, though
amounting in 1925 to only $4,000
kilowatt, was already double the pre-
war capacity. The identification
plans now in execution provide for
the construction of new electrical
stations and the reequipment and en-
largement of existing stations in 100
localities in the Soviet Union as
first step in the work of electrifying
the country.
OF these 80 stations with a total
capacity of 1,75O,OOO kwt. are to be of
the large regional type feeding cleo
tricity over extensive areas. Two of
these stations, those of Balakhna in
the province of Nizhni Novgorod and
Kizel in the Urals have already been
completed. Nearing completion and
partly in operation are the stations
Volkhovstroy and Red October in. the
province of Leningrad, Kashira and
Shatura in the province of Moscow,
and Shterovka in the Donetz Basin.
The total capacity of these seven sta
tions is $4,000 kwt. .r
Cost One Fourth of Pre-War
Beside these stations which are
being constructed at the expense and
under the control of the central or

cation, local initiative is making itself
manifest in many districts where
smaller electrical stations are being
built by the local communal authori-
ties or by stock companies with the
participation of the local authoritiesl
Owing to this extensive electrical
construction it has already become
possible to reduce the price to- con-
sumers on an average about one
fourth of the pre-war price. 4

Bill of Amendments

Six farmer-owned terminal selling

Tickling bill to repeal Sections 26 and

Second Payment on State
Potato Pool Is Ordered
Installment Will Require $3.50, 1000
Schedule Ranges From 60 Cents
to S Cents Per Hundred

The second pool payment to men,
bers of the Minnesota Potato Grow
ers Exchange was ordered by the
governing board at meeting in St.
Paul March 5.
More than $35O,00O will be re-
quired to cover the second payment
and will bring the organizations to-
tai distribution thus far on this years
crop to nearly 100000.
The schedule for the second pay
ment ranges from 60 cents hundred
on certified Bliss Triumphs to 5 cents
a hundred on Commercial grade
Round Whites.
In adopting the schedule for the
second payment the board realized
that it would be dangerous to make
too high a payment on some varieties,
because there is large number of
these potatoes still in the country and
there is a possibility of heavy
slump in prices this spring.
While a serious drop in the mar
ket is not expected, the board would
not place itself in a position of hav-
ing to pay more money to new MEM
bers than potatoes might be worth
this spring. For instance, if the mar
ket went below what already has been
advanced, every non-member in the
state would join the association and,
of course, demand the same advances
that already have been paid members.
Such a condition would wreck the
organization. ...
Acting under the boards orders,
the Exchanges accounting depart
ment began mailing out checks Mon
day, March 9. 1t will take about 80
days to complete the payment.

INCREASE IN BUTTER TARIFF

Figures made public by the Tariff
commission in its investigation of the
butter industry forecast an increase
in the tariff on butter. These figures
indicate the farm cost of producing
butterfat in the principal dairying
areas of the United States is 61.5
cents a pound compared to 1928
cents a pound in Denmark, principal
competitor of the American dairy
farmers. The average return to the
farmer in the United States is 48.7
cents the report says. The cost of
production in Minnesota is 62.8 cents
a pound and the average return to
the farmer is 50.7 cents.
The Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association started the move
ment for a tariff on butter increase
and has put up a continuous fight for
it's realization. The following is TAX
en- from late newspaper report:
minnesota Cooperative Creamer-
les association has on file with the
tariff commission an application for
an increase in the tariff on butter
from to IL cents pound, the max
imum allowed under the Fordney-
McCumber tariff law.
If the preliminary figures are sus-
tanned by the hearings before the
commission it is regarded as certain
the increase will be authorized, for
the difference in cost of production
here and in Denmark is shown to be
more than twice IL cents pound
