Expresses Hope That
Williams Homestead
Nav Be Preserved

Mrs. Hugh Wallace, the daughter Of
the late Chief Justice Melvin w. Full
Ter, upon her recent visit to Augusta
expressed herself as being impressed
with the good fortune Of Augusta in
having a colonial mansion like the
Reuel Williams homestead on Cony
Hill.
Mrs. Wallace brought her son from
Tacoma, Wash, to view the portraits
Of his ancestors, Judge and Mrs. Cony,
painted by Gilbert Stuart. 1t will be
remembered that Judge Cony was the
founder of the Cony Female Academy
which later became the Cony High
school. The Williams and Cony FAM
lilies gave generously of both land and
buildings to the city of Augusta. Mrs.
Wallace sincerely hopes that the Will
liams mansion will remain as 1t is for
many generations yet to come.

Capitalism in
Russia Gaining
By United Press Leased Wire

NEW YORK June 2l.-In an
exhaustive report on trade condi-
tions IN Russia, made public today,
James G.. Mcdonald. chairman of
the Foreign Policy Association, cx-
pressed the belief that business in
that country is tending to swing
back to the capitalistic system
which existed prior to the Revolu-
tion of 1917.
American business men have been
attempting to benefit from por-
tion of the Russian foreign trade
and 1t was for this group that the
Foreign Policy Association gather
ed statistics for the report.
In Il number of instances it has
been impossible to ally economic
realities and MARKHAM theories, the
report said, adding that despite at
temptS of the state to destroy pri-
vatc capitalism in 1925. private en-
tcrprisc is now flourishing and en-.
joying practically free hand. This
contention was backed by statis-
ties purporting to show nearly so
percent of retail business today in
the hands of private dealers.
Regardless Of the changes that
have come about i'll internal bust
ness, foreign trade still remains an
almost complete government mono
poly. the report continued. Russia
is essentially an agricultural coun-
try hence its prosperity can almost
"c determined by the size of the
agricultural yield, it was pointed
out. The main crops still remain
about 2l per cent below the 1909
1918 average. Industrial production
last November amounted to Il per
cent of the 1913 figure.
The clops in l935 were eXcep-
tiouaiiy satisfactory but the sur
pus arailaoi Cor expectation was
much less than hoped for, according
IT, the report, because the peasants

considered far prices withheld as

he discussed generalities only, and no

of system to a minimum scale and the
proposed adjustment of prices, spell
in practical operation-piece work

result of this review it was de-
cided to issue another appeal to the
membership of the Federation and
their friends to make voluntary finan-
cial contributions for the purpose of
supplying food and clothing to the
striking miners of Great Britain and
their families dependent upon them.
Intense Suffering.
This strike of the miners in Great
Britain has reached the point where
suffering among the miners families
/ is intense. The industrial struggle
has been carried on week after week
until hunger and distress are being
keenly felt. The miners are resisting
Z reduction in the meager wages they
heretofore were receiving. They are
heroically fighting against lowering
of their living standards The action
of the British mine owners in attempt
ing to force this reduction is a chal-
lenge to the mine workers of Great
Britain.
Give Help Quickly.
"The mine workers of Great Britain
have appealed to the working people
of America to help them in their hour
of need. Recently a delegation rep
resenting the British Trade Union
Congress and the Miners Federation
of Great Britain visited America call
ing upon the membership of organ
lied labor and their friends to supply
financial help to the strikers. This
delegation related stories of sacrifice.
suffering and distress which were of a
most touching and pathetic nature.
They pleaded for help. They urged
that help be extended and that it be
extended now
"Do Not Delay"
"The executive council, therefore. in
transmitting this supplementary ap-
peal is repeating the message of this
delegation. We earnestly and sincerely
urge you to make such voluntary con-
tributions as circumstances will per
NIT. Give to the limit of your ability.
Send in your money Immediately. Do
not delay. Let the sympathetic and
generous heart of the organized labor
movement of America respond quickly
to the appeal which the hungry men,
women and children who are the suf-
ferers in the miners strike make to

Points at Issue Same.
The points at issue remain the
same. The question of the duration
of the contract and the number of
musicians to be used in smaller thea

the owners will very soon have to

rather good weekly salaries, the dwin-
