HEAVY SNOW AND EXPERIENCE
Many Cars Were Stuck on the BOule-
ward Until Roads Were Opened

The heavy snow which visited
Smyrna early last Wednesday morn
ing and covered the ground with IL
and IA inches of snow on the level
with impossible drifts in many places
was the worst Smyrna had experience
ed in many years. Travel on both
the Smyrna Branch Railroad and on
main roads were impeded until snow
plOws cleared the way. Rural mail
routes did not get out Wednesday and
even on Thursday only some portions
of routes were served. Many cars
were stuck between Smyrna and Do
yer, Smyrna and Clayton and Smyrna
and Wilmington. Some real exper-
fences were had. The high winds of
Thursday caused the dry snow to
drift more and until snowplOws on
the bOulvard and other main high
ways got in their good work, travel
was experienced under difficulties.

VIII Not Bar Debs
from United States

WASHINGTON, April 10. (FP)-Eu.
gene V. Debs, whose citizenship the
Coolidge administration has thus far
refused to restore, will not be barred
out when he returns from his trip to
Bermuda.
That is the statement of Assistant
Secretary Husband of the Depart
ment Of Labor. Husband informed
The Federated Press, that will have
no difficulty in returning to his native
land.
when man loses his citizenship
he does not become an alien unless
he becomes a citizen or subject OF
another country" Husband said. mo
man born here can be made an alien
by this government, and while he is
deprived of the right to vote or hold
office he can always re-enter this
country IL he has gone abroad"

Bogus Tacna-Arica Cure
Only Aids u. S. Control

WASHINGTON, April 10. - A plan
TO settle the Tacna-Arica dispute bv
selling the territory to Bolivia. who
needs an outlet to the sea, has been
introduced into the negotiations here
between Secretary Kellogg and the
ambassadors of Peru and Chile. 1t is
reported that the Guggenheim inter.
ests are behind the plan.
Editors Note-This Bolivian nlan
is one OF a number that have been set
forth as solutions of the Tacna-Arica
dispute. 1t is obvious that neither
Chile nor Peru would countenance
such an offer for moment. The OBJ
Ject Of all these panaceas is to drag
out the negotiations which have been
going on now for a year in order to
give the United States time to build
up her control in the disputed ter
ritory. Gen. Lassiter is on the ground
supervising the building of American
hegemony there and continuing Perish.

III is working well. We have spacious
and good premises. There are very
many illiterate peasants in our viii
lage, as under czardom they did not
study. Now many circles have been
opened in the reading room, where
the peasants learn. Every other day
there is loud reading for peasants.
They visit the reading room every day
and learn to read and write so that
they can get an understanding of what
is going on around them. Special
question and answer evenings are ar
ranged, where the peasants ask ques-
tons of the agronomists and other
cultural workers. For example, on
such an evening on Dec. 30, 1925,
more than 100 questions were pre-
scented.
And how are things with you? Have
you any reading rooms? Are the peas
ants educated?

BY a Worker corrs~e0ndens

CLEVELAND, April 13.-The strike
Of the painters and laborers which be-
gan March continues with all the
men out. The contractors refuse to
recognize the demands Of the paint
ers, which are for the .flve-day week
and $1.S7h an hour, while the la borers
are demanding wage increase from
S71s cents to 81 an hour. In spite of
the fact that the banks are behind the
contractors and are waving the in
terest due from borrowers on struck
jobs, the men are out with the de-
Termination to win. $50
Up to the present the weather has
been bad, so that the strike was only
a strike in name. Now with the spring
weather here and the possibility of
work, the strike will enter into its
active stage. Six or seven large CON
struction jobs are held up, and there
is no hope of work being resumed I'M
til the contractors consent to the de-
mands of the workers. 1=-....
1t is computed that $S0,000,000 has
already been lost In wages, loss Of
patronage, etc. aa' &.
More than 1880 are out Of work as
a result of the strike, this including
bricklayers, carpenters, painters, plas-
terers, etc. XVII
The Builders League and the Cham
Der Of Commerce are now beginning
campaign to enlist the sympathy Of
the public" on their side. This will
be Of no use, for the men are pre-
pared to continue the fight. The loss
to the contractors is very great, and
this will compel them to come to terms
better than anything else. ~
