To Introduce Newer
Methods in Soviet
Cold Development

Soviet gold industry will show a
considerable development in the near
future, according to A. P. Serebrov-
sky, member of the Presidium of the
Supreme Economic Council of the u.
S. S. R., and a representative of the
Soviet Gold Trust, who has just ar
rived from the Soviet Union for a
stay of about three months. Ameri-
can methods and machinery will be
used for developing the Soviet gold
industry. At present the gold output
of the Soviet Union amounts to about
az per cent of the pre-war figure.
This is Mr.. Serebrovsky's second
visit to the United States. Two years
ago he made large purchases of oil
equipment in this country.
"The known gold resources of the
Soviet Union, estimated at nearly
5000 metric tons, warrant much
larger production than Russia has at
tained," stated Mr.. Serebrovsky in
the offices of the Amtorg Trading
Corporation, 165 Broadway, the prin-
cipal firm in Soviet American trade.

FRENCH MURDER,
IMPRIS0N MANY
SYRIAN LEADERS
Daily Executions of Ma
tionalists Held
Especial to DAILY WORKED.

J.
PARIS, Nov. 10, (by maiD. Since
the suppression of the Syrian revolt
by their armed forces, the French
generals have been pitilessly eXecut-
ing everyone suspected of revolution
airy activity. Without exception all
the revolutionists who have fallen into
the hands of the French have been
condemned to death or TO long years
of Imprisonment Five Or six death
sentences in a single day are not I'M
usual
The condemned are executed public
ly at the town gates, at Damascus,
HONS, Aleppo and even at Beirout,
"the crown of French civilization in
the East"
Slow Torture
Those condemned to prison meet
death by slow torture. The ''pacifica-
ton" of Syria has long been an
nounced as an accomplished fact, but
months after the revolt has been sup
pressed, hundreds of revolutionary
workers and nationalsts are suffering
in the jails, in exile and from depor-
tation.
The imperialists are not content
with the victims which they have put
behind the bars. By continual de-
nunciations and arbitrary actions, they
are gaining new victims. Recently,
they arrested 73 peasants in the little
Druse village of Racheja because a
neighbor had accused them of sympa-
thizing with the Druses during their
march.
Punitive expeditions traverse the
country. They have orders to stamp
out every suspicion of revolt, to dis
arm the population, and to collect the
taxes which are crushing the people.
They raise special contributions, lev
led against the towns and villages
since the late revolt, and watch that
all of them go without delay into the
Golfers of the French commissioners.
And hard on the heels of the bloody
generals, French capital is penetrat-
ing the country. The impoverished
peasantry affords cotton plantations
the lowest priced slaves to the cotton
plantations of the French concession
aires. The Syrian masses are being
forced to buy the products of French
industry while the country is sur
rounded with a wall of prohibitive
customs tariffs. Ponsot, the French
commissioner, who is directing the
political oppression, with satisfac-
tory and genial air, will remain at his
post until the French economic pro-
gram is completely realized.
The French are doing everything to
drive the population to despair. They
believe that due to tSe wave of reac-
ton thruout the world, and to the de-
moralization which their agents are
attempting to spread among the ranks
of the Syrian nationalists, that they
will be uninterrupted in realizing their
designs.

Over Million Students
Enrolled as Mexican
School System Thrives

WASHINGTON, (FP) Nov. rs
Mexican public schools now have an
enrolment of 1,133,000 pupils, while
private schools have II ,464, according
to the report of the Department of
Education in Mexico.
Of the total of 1906 public and
private schools, which have 1858
teachers, 12,788 are maintained by
public funds. An average of over
1000 new schools has been estab-
lished each year since the present adj
ministration came into power. Presi-
dent Gales has assured the nation
that this rate of growth will be main
tanned until the entire country shall
have sufficient schools for its popula-
ton, distributed to serve even the
most remote regions as well as the
congested areas.

Rumanian Communists
Trial Postponed for

BUCHAREST, Nov. 28.-The trial
of Boris Stefanow, the Communist
representative in the Rumanian par
lament of the workers and peasants

to the non-appearance of the princi-
pal witnesses for the state, certain
Rumanian politicians.
The road over which Stefanew was
carried in an armorede to the mill

German Film Ruling Is
Hit at u. S. Immigrant
Quota; Cuts Imports

BERLIN, Nov. 28.-Only 260 Amer
lean motion picture films are to be al
lowed to enter Germany during the
next Is months, according to a ruling
of the Reich's commissioner of ex-
ports. The ruling replaces an older
one by which one American film was
permitted to enter for every one pro-
duced in Germany.
1t is being widely rumored that the
ruling is direct reprisal against the
American immigration quota which
does not permit Germans to immi-
CRATE where jobs are more plentiful.
The intention is to build up home
motion picture production.

There have been a number of dem

Even workers affiliated with the

respects resemble company unions in
the United States, are beginning to
protest the wage cuts.
Altho the fascist leaders of the fas-
