ADVERTISING AND
PROGRESS

Advertising has proven itself to be the barometer of pro- gress.
 It has not been long since business advertising was as se- verely criticised and ridiculed as boasting of personal quail fications. At the same time there was as little faith in the claims of advertisements as in the claims of the braggart. Only the quack and the inn poster, who had everything to gain and nothing to lose, then resorted to advertising.
 Business is ever the standard bearer and apostle of progress, and so it was business which discovered that advertising was vital factor in all growth. When advertising was admitted to the fireside of business it was not the big business of today. Big business traces it's beginning with its employment of advertising.
 In its conversion to advertis- ing business was soon follow ed by industry, commerce and the professions. The benefits of advertiSing had made them selves manifest in each step forward.
 That was the evolution of ad- vertising, until today advertis- ing plays a part in every phase of life and is the working in- strument of all except the doctor and the lawyer, who still consider 1t ''unethical" to advertise for business. He may place his "card" in the week ly newspaper in patronage of the publisher, but it is pro- fessionally forbidden for, the doctor or the lawyer to inform the public of his capabilities.

fact, however, is but little known in the outside world. hence we, cannot refrain from expressing our appreciation to Mining Truth for assisting our own humble efforts to let the world know that this dis trict is one of the greatest mineral areas on earth and presents unlimited possibilities for intelligent mining develop ment.

Nothing in life has attained perfection, and evolution is an eternal, ever-continuing ad- vancement. The evolution of advertising will not stop with it's adoption by medicine and jurisprudence, but that adopt ion will establish another milestone of progress.

cTVESaDESTRICT l .... FINE BOOST

Replying to an inquiry re- garding . certain local prop erty, Mining Truth, of >SpoA kane, in it's issue of. June 16th. says:
 we have great faith in the Portland Canal district and believe 1t will eventually be one of" the greatest producing districts in the world"
 Cunning from g journal pos sessing a most excellent repu- tation for reliability in the dis semination of mining news, the statement is one that should be of considerable benefit to this district. Mining Truth possesses vast audience of mixing men and others inter- ested in mining. hence it is not A; be doubted that its gratuitous "boost" will reach the eye of 8 great number of readers and should go a long way toward encouraging in- terest in local mining develop nsenE. !
 All the world has heard of the Portland Canal district but lew indeed outside of the dis tkfCt possess more than 8 nea- ger knowledge of it's potenti- aRties as 8, source of wealth production. As stated by Min ing Truth, the district will eventually become one of the greatest mineral producing areas in the world. Develop ments during the past. two or three years leave no doubt re- garding its possibilities in this respect. Although less than six years has passed since the op- ening of the great Premier gave. the first real impetus to local mining, the district has already developed four cohtin- uously producing mines and. two others are on the verge of production. In addition there are literally dozens of prop critics which display every possible indication of ultimate lyr becoming mines. All that Is needed to make the district fHIfilf thesexpsUtasion express by Mining Truth. is labor and an intelligent expenditure of capital in development. This,

AUSTRALIAN
SED|TION LAW
HITS UNIONS
Threaten Strikers With
Jail Sentence
BY W. FRANCIS AHERN.

SYDNEY-(FP)- The drastic pro-
visions of the new crimes act indi-
cate that the workers of Australia are
in for savage repression. Under the
act revolutionary workingclass organ
izations are outlawed while strikes rat
ed as serious industrialist disturb
ances will make union leaders, propa-
gandists and strikers liable to impris-
onment or deportation or both.
Persons threatening boycotts are
liable to years Imprisonment, as are
persons who induce others to strike.
To bring the kings name into hatred
or contempt is classed as seditious In
tention. 1t is also seditious intention
to create dissatisfaction against the
king or his representatives in Aus
tralia or to promote hostility between
classes of people. This crime is pun
ishable by years Imprisonment.
Imprisonment for life awaits any
person attempting to seduce soldier
from his duty or incite him to mutiny.
This means that if any person advises
a soldier not to shoot his own father
or brother on strike or not to serve in
an unjust capitalist war or shoot down
his working class comrades, he will be
jailed for life.
1t is now crime to give money or
goods to an unlawful association (such
as the Communist party or the l. w.
W., sell any book, pamphlet or news
paper q such associations, or take up
any collection for same or print and
publish any literature of such organic
atoms. The penalty is six months.
The same penalty awaits any person
performing similar acts to assist any
union on strike. Police can arrest
without warrant.
The Communist Party and the l. w.
w. will function underground. The
Communist newspaper at Sydney, the
Workers Weekly, has already sus-
pended publication.

WATSON-PARKER
RAILROAD BILL
WATTS SIGNING
Unions, Carriers Worked
Together for 1t
Especial to The Daily Worker,

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-President
Coolidge is expected to attach his sig
nature to the Watson-Parker railroad
bill within a few days. The bill,
which passed both houses, abolishes
the railway labor board established by
the transportation act Of 1920.
In place of the railway labor board,
which has been generally knocked
about and disregarded in the six years
Of its life, there is set up in the
Watson-Parker bill a new system of
settling labor disputes-the parent
hood of which is jointly acknowledged
by the unions and the carriers.
Regional boards of mediation and
review, composed of employees and en-
ployers, will settle regional disputes
as to wages and working conditions.
Above these regional boards is a pres
idential board of five members, not
affiliated with either the roads or the
unions, who can intervene at the re-
quest Of either party, or upon its own
motion when a dispute gets beyond
the regional boards.
If both sides agree to arbitration,
the judgment of such an arbitration
body shall be filed in the nearest fed
eral court, and become the judgment
of such court, binding alike on both
parties.
Over and above all these, there is
created virtual supreme court to
be appointed by the president and be
known as the emergency board -
which will make a thirty-day inves-
tigation into any dispute that threat
ems to result in a strike. During this
thirty days there can be no strike on
the part of the men nor a lockout by
the roads.
Somewhere along this laborious
route the sponsors of the new plan
believe that a basis of peace can be
found before things actually reach the
strike stage.

Prisoners Feel that Jails

without funds. He had been beating

l handed over the copy Of The
DAILY WORKER and "He" read
eagerly the latest news about the
British strike.
This reminds me of The War of
the Classes by Jack London" he
said, after time. But that was
about the entire extent of his read
ing of London's works.
His touching the fringe Of the
working class movement, however,
had not left very deep impression
upon him. He looked upon the
United States navy as a wonderful
institution. He had been with the
marines when they slaughtered up
wards of 1000 native in Hayti. His
explanation conceded with that of
the government at Washington.
Altho he had free, buccaneering
spirit, thinking for himself occasion
ally, that did not make him any the
less valuable as a killer for imperial
ism.
He did not connect in any way his
imprisonment with the murder of
the Haytians. He didn't connect the
oppressive power of the Pittsburgh
coal, mine and railroad barons, that
put him behind bars, with the i'm
perialist fist that struck down Hay
tians by the thousands when they
refused to submit to the foreign ag-
gression that sent soldiers, marines
and warships against them. To him
it was just another "scrape" to be
gotten out Of as lightly and as quick
ly as possible. 1t was not much diff
ferent than being sent to "the brig"
for ten days on shipboard when an
other sailor accused him, falsely as
he claimed, of having provided his
mates with moonshine.

Not one of these prisoners had the

of the nature of the class struggle.

Meanwhile there has arrived in

first was the Nicaraguan minister,
Castrillo, who was formally notified
that the United States and the Cen

by treaty to refuse recognition of any
government set up in violation of con-

failed, Chandler Anderson tried. He is

admittedly having made most mis-

faction in his success in defeating
other prisoners at checkers. Some
where in the human stream that
poured thru this jail there had been
a checker enthusiast who had carv-

anyone to enter it and beat him at
checkers, the checkers being mere
slips of paper. So far as know, no

doubtless repeat the performance
when he got out.
Discussing these things, going
over their troubles again and again,

at newspapers that came their way,

This means from about six o'clock

other cell blocks.
