and rural Soviets in the Russian So
cialist Federation of Soviet Republics
are now completed. The results show

last year, while in the urban Soviets
43.4 per cent of the members elected
we're non-party as compared with 34.2
per cent last year.

of non-party local intelligentsia, teach
ers, doctors, agronomists, ETC., elected

500, 900, 900 IN PROFITS TO TWENTY
COPPER, LEAD AND SILVER COMPANIES

BY LELAND oLDs, Federated Press.
Profits Of more than $100,000,000
copied in 1925 by 20 producers of COP
per, lead and silver reflect the harsh
exploitation of mine, mill and smelter
workers for multimillionaires who live
thousands of miles from the dreary
mining towns in North and South
America. These American corpora
tions almost without exception are
making extraordinary returns on their
common stock. The 1925 figure in
one instance is 1857.
Kenneeott Copper.
Kennecott Copper leads with a 1925
profit of $23,890,044. This is reckoned
as 1894 a share on the no-par common
stock. But as the company's books
carry the stock at about $3.50 a share
the actual return for the year is 979o.
BY grinding down labor Kennecott
was able to produce copper (princi-
pally in Alaska at an average cost of
.S.07c a pound. Labor received less
than &c pound. The copper sold for
an average of 1920 a pound. After
deducting interest, depreciation and
taxes the profit remaining was about
5.Sc a pound or more than the share
going to the actual producers.
Anaconda Profits.
Anaconda Copper Mining Co. con-
trolling mines all over the hemis-
phere made a 1926 profit Of $780,
532, giving stockholders 1857 on the
par value of their securities. Profits
Of the other companies, together with
the percentages earned on common
stock, were:

Step
Especial to The Daily worker)

WARSAW, May 26.-"The Polish
people are so thoroughly disguised
with the failure of Poland's fourteen
political parties to set up a stable
government and so driven to despera-
ton by the economic chaos in the

tatorship. They arne't particular who
the dictator is. He can be black one,
or pink" Such was the comment of
a political observer in Warsaw regard
ing the possibility of a dictatorship
for Poland.
Dictatorship Move.
The Pilsudski government seems to
be aware Of this. The government is
sued a statement today which is con-
strued as meaning the first step to-
wards dictatorship.
Public opinion urgently demands
dissolution of parliament" says the
declaration. Changes in the consti-
tuition are necessary, especially on
lines empowering the president to dis
solve the parliament"
Big Executive Power.
A definite gesture towards investing
the new president, when he is elected
by the national assembly meeting on
May 81, with the powers of a dictator
is the following from the government
statement: 1T is indispensable to in
vest the president in the interim be-
tween the two parliaments with spe-
cial powers to clean up the admins
trative APPARATUS, promulgate a new
electoral law and reorganize civil and
military bodies"
