Whaling Industry Described
(Continued from Page 27)

whalebone or gill bones are sold as curios and brings about $1.50 pel pound, one prong of 15 feet will weigf about 20 pounds.
 The Finback and Humpback are about 50 to 60 feet long and easily found as they seem to sleep on the surface of the water. They contri bute to the fertilizer and bone meal
 The dissecting of a whale is an art and not one stroke of the knives are ever miscalculated. A flincing crew of eight natives with their sharp fin. cing knives with slightly curved blades from fourteen to eight inches long and handle about four feet re- sembling a grass scythe can prepare a whale for the retOrts in about four hours. The fat or blubber lies just under the skin and Is from two to three feet thick beautifully white and solid. Deep incisions are made thru the fat from the head to the tail in strips of four feet and on these are fastened the block and tackle and the machinery pulls the blubber off and hoists it into it's own particular vat.
 From this point the meatcutters take charge This is crew of fifteen men who inspect the meat, and cut it into small portions for the different manufacturing uses such as soap, per- fume, pomades and medicinal oils.
 It seems there is no limit to the human family in their mad search for luxuries and vanities, cosmetics and other frailties, but when one views the very first base of these articles, a gigantic symetrical beautiful animal hauled up on the slip, with many har- poons sunk deeply into it's torn, lac erated and bruised body, we begin to realize that we are the sole cause of all this unnecessary agony and suf- fering.
 The male specie is often subdued by one or two well-directed shots just at the base of the head, but the fe- male with her mother instincts pre- dominating fights furiously with super power in hopes of saving herself and inborn progeny and often as many as eight harpoons, each with bomb that explodes three seconds after striking, must be used before she is quieted After a whale is killed a hole is

bored into the body and compressed air Is pumped into the cavity and then closed A small red flag is fastened on, and the whale floats until the whale boat has as many as it can tow in, sometimes as often as four giant whales are slowly brought to the station the result of sometimes one days work and many times four days struggle with storms and heavy seas
 The mother whale carries her be- loved babe close to her side. one of her flukes clasping and almost auto matically licks around it's form. there the infant whale takes it's nourish- ment of rich, thick creamy milk. while the mother dashes and cavorts thru the sea with all happiness and as she thinks secure from all danger, but alas. she is struck by the cruel har- poon and after terrific struggling she and her babe still so firmly clasp ed that even in death does not relax are brought to the surface and lashed to the side of the whale boat.
 The gunners of the whaleboat aver that if they could by any means dis tinguish between the species they would never shoot a female whale, and if we could be made to realize the intense agony of the animals or the eXcruciating torture of the steel trap, we would shrink with horror at the thought of enjoying the products of one, or wearing the fur of our little furry creatures of the wilderness.
 The flesh of the blue whale is very delicious meat and looks like pork tenderloin. I can't verify this state ment as I have never tasted it, but tourists call for whale steaks and whale hamburger and are emphatic in their praise. The whale tails are

Huge Quartz Property Near Seward Along the Alaska Railroad May Soon De
 Taken Ouer By British Capitalists
Predicted That if the English Concern Takes Over Prop erty at Least Five Hundred Men Will Be on the
 Companys Payroll Soon
Estimates of Diamond Drilling Have Been Forwarded to Europe-Property is in Splendid Location for
 Big Operations-Fne Townsite

Of great importance to Seward was the announcement last summer that an influential group of English capital ists were considering the purchase of the quartz property at Mile 43 1-2 of which John Howe, ST., John Howe, Jr., and John MackwitZ, all well-known in Seward, are the owners. News of the possible entry into this field by the same company interested in the Fairbanks district, was brought to Seward by P. J. Lynch, of the Seattle firm of diamond drillers, Lynch Bros.
 Conservative mining men who have visited the property have pronounced the vein of ore on the ground the largest they have ever seen. It liter ally splits the mountain in two. It is believed to be the largest, at least, on the Pacific coast, as far as local know ledge is concerned. The lead is 150 feet wide with stoping ground run ming up 2000 feet. The vein has been traced for distance of 7,5O0 feet, with an average width of 150 feet It is stated the milling property is similar to the famous Treadwell mine, in the Southeastern part of Alaska, and could very easily, be opened as quarrying proposition.
 The ground lays at nice location on the old Alaska Central railroad; siding is already in; ample water pow
Seward daily gateway., 1925-12-05

CT is available with a river running thru the property, ideally located for carrying away the tailings; a fine townsite adjoins the ground, in fact, as MT. Lynch said, it is one of the most natural mining projects, really made to order, that he has ever visited.
 The permanency of the vein is indi- cated by the three miles of black slate with the wien matter lying directly between, and to the South, graywack. The ore is highly mineralized, backed with blue clay wall. The analysis show copper, silver and gold, but mostly gold values, ranging from $2 to $47 ton. Innumerable analysis have been taken from all portions of the exposed rock and reveal there is a plenty of S6 rock and ample high grade ore. The owners have driven in two short tunnels, one to a depth of six feet and another 20 feet, and cross cut of thirty feet has been made. De- velopment work has proceeded with regularity with Mr. Mackwitz now on the ground.
 The prediction was made providing the English concern takes over the property, that within a period of two years, owing to the magnitude of op- erations, which would be conducted, that close to five hundred men would be employed by the company.

cut into three inch slabs of about three feet long and two feet wide. These are treated to a solution for three days and then dried and ship ped to Japan and China where the meat is considered a luxury and brings about 40 cents a pound in those countries.
 There are many more interesting things about a whaling station that I shall write about before the next mail boat and with the pictures and a real first thrill of being on whal- ing vessel and witness the operation will be my next theme.

 100000 Fur Seals

Approximately 100000 animals con- stitute Uncle Sams great fur-seal herd centering about the Pribilof Islands in Boring Sea, a herd con- taining 90 per cent of the worlds fur seals. Government sales of fur skins during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1924, totaled $582,823. In 1923 sealskins taken from the islands numbered 15,92O. This trade passes thru Seattle.

Each captain of a cutter in the Boring Sea patrol is authorized to act as United States Commissioner. An other officer aboard the vessel is also a deputy United States marshal. Thus justice can be administered in emergency cases. Such a floating court comes in handy in the cannery district of Bristol Bay.

His Appointee Decides
Billion Dollar Deal

WASHINGTON, April 15.-~The
greatest railroad merger in modern
transportation history hung in the
balance here today as the Interstate
Commerce Commission began consid-
Grafton Of the Van Sweringen plans
for consolidating FIVE big roads into
a single unified system.
1t is billion dollar" proposition.
Billion Dollars Involved.
The properties involved contain
more than 10000 miles Of tracks and
sidings, and embrace the Erie, the
Chesapeake and Ohio, the Nickel
Plate, the Hooking Valley and the
Pere Marquette, operating in ten
states. The total estimate Of invest
ment in these properties is $1,OS1,-
5000.
The commission was confronted at
the outset with demand from minor
tty stockholders in the G. & o. that
the proceedings be continued until
the chancery court at Richmond pass
es on the legality Of the merger.
Thomas B. Gay, their attorney, pre-.
sented his argument today and was
followed by w. A. Colston, attorney
for the Van Sweringen brothers.
caPs Commissioner r. r. Director.
Sitting with the commission for the
first time was Thomas F. Woodlock,
whose nomination the senate twice re-
fused to confirm. He is a former di-
rector in the Pere Marquette. At the
time of his nomination the commits
sion was understood to be split Ave
to five on the proposed merger. 1t is
well known in Washington that Coo
lidge insisted on appointing Woodlock
because Of his interest in merging the
railroads.
The Nickel Plate, the Chesapeake
and Ohio and the Hooking Valley are
the nucleus for the proposed trust,
which provides arteries in the coun-
try's main sweep of traffic from west
ern gateways, besides an outlet to
the port of New York and routes Civ
ing direct access from Norfolk and
Newport News to the tip of the lower

in their fight to block the gigantic
Van Sweringen railroad merger, when
the interstate commerce commission
refused to grant a postponement of
hearings on the proposed consolida-
ton.

the immediate dismissal OF the white

carry out the provisions OF the treaty
cannot be otherwise interpreted by
Russia except as case OF bad faith,

PROTEST ARREST
OF HAW ADAMS
New York League Fights
School Dope

NEW YORK, April 15.-The Young
Workers League of District No is
calling a protest mass meeting for
Friday, April II, at Stuyvesant Casino
to protest against the introduction Of
religious training in the public schools
of this city and also against the at
tempt Of the American imperialists to
imprison for life eight young Hawaii
an Communists for no other crime
than being members of Communist
organization.
The two issues that occasioned the
call of this meeting are issues that
involve the entire working class the
country over and should be responded
to by every militant worker in this
city. First, the Introduction of reli-
gious training in the city public
schools. is an attempt to further poi
son the minds of the children Of the
working class and make willing and
submissive slaves of them. While the
persecution of eight young Commu-
nists in Hawaii is an attempt on the
part of the American imperialists to
crush the revolutionary movement Of
the working class the world over.
Workers Protest.
The workers OF this country must
voice their protest against both reli.
gious training in the schools and the
attempt to put out of the way eight
of the best fighters of the revolution
airy youth of Hawaii.
1t is the duty of every workingman
and workingwoman, Of every young
worker to come and demonstrate their
protest and determination to fight
these new onslaughts of the world
bourgeoisie. Let us put halt
to the murderous hands of
American Imperialism and the
attempt to poison the minds of the
children of the workers with opium
of the people," as Lenin expressed
himself on religion.
Prominent Communists Speak.
The speakers will be Ludwig Lore,
editor of the Volkszeitung; Jack Sta
chel, district organizer of the Young
Workers League; Herbert Fam, Sam
Don, in Yiddish, and Morris Spector,
who spoke at the Lenin memorial at

IRON WORKERS
DISCOVER OPEN
SHOP TRICKERY
But $500 Men May
Strike May 81

Structural iron jobs involving $780,
100000 worth Of contracts in Chicago,
among them the addition to the Nor.
rison hotel, the new Palmer House
and the Bismarck block, may be tied
up on May 81 by strike of the $500
members of the Iron Workers union
for a raise in pay of rs cents an hour.
The open shop Iron League has been
stalling negotiations along from month
to month, and altho the union has been
seeking a new wage scale for year
or so, the Iron League hung back.
Now it is trying to evade any increase
by saying that the agreement which
will expire May 81, provides that the
present scale would remain effective
according to their argument, for
another year.--if new one Is not ne.
gotiated by Feb. 2s.
However, the agreement merely pro.
vides that the present scale shall be
effective II no new one is set before
Feb. 2S, but only until new one is set
and the union contends that there is
no automatic renewal OF the old scale
for any fixed term, but a mere permits
sion for continued work at the old
scale until new one is agreed upon.
The iron workers are said to have
received lesson upon why the open
shop Iron League contractors dilly-dai-
lied over a new contract until after
Feb. 2s.
