Held Richest Country.

In concise Characterization OF
Mexico, Mr.. Newell declared it is per
haps the worlds richest country in its
natural resources and one of the poor
est in. the condition of it's people--one
of the oldest lands in its early civil
cation, evidences of which are being
eXcavated each year, and one of the
newest in its development toward
modern civilization. MeXico's history
of "despotism through assassination
is Indicative of a gradual but cruel
rise to civilization, the speaker con
tended.
In conjunction with his address Mr..
Newell showed lantern slides of Mex
leo and the United States Mexican
boundary Typographical features. He
described at length the meandering of
the Colorado River and the dangers IT
presents to the residents of Imperial
Valley. The big river, he said, cuts
new channels as fast as its old ones
are washed away by the mud-thick
currents, and the river has a strong
persistency to cut through leYees and
overflow valuable lands. After bond
ing themselves for as much money as
they can possibly stand in their eff
forts to build suitable levees to pro
tect their lives and property, Mr..
Newell declared the people of the val
ley were obliged to appeal to the
United States Government to finance
the Boulder Dam project as means
of protection.
F.. b. ScheetZ, president of the
Washington Society of Engineers, pre-
sided and Introduced the speaker at

StrikGbrGakGr Wood
Dies Of Operation for
Brain TuInOr in Boston

BOSTON, Aug. Major Leonard
Wood, governor general of the Philip
pines, died this morning from the eff
fects of an operation to remove a
tumor of the brain.
Wood is best remembered as the
chief of the strike-breaking forces of
the United States army that were
used to help the United Estates Steel
Corporation break the steel strike of
1890. He was stationed at Gary
Indiana, and established martial law
nd terrorized the strikers in the most
brutal manner.
Ran for President.
In 1920 Wood was a candidate for
the republican nomination for presi-
dent of the United States, but was
defeated in a number of republican
primaries in states where such farces
were held. He carried only the state
of South Dakota in the pre-nomina-
ton campaign. So thoroly hated was
he by the forces of labor that the
manipulators of the republican con-
vention, holding forth in Ebert H
Gary's suite of rooms in the Black
stone Hotel in Chicago, refused to
nominate him, for fear of defeat at
the presidential election in November
of that year.

LEATHER WORKERS
HEAR SHIPLACOFF
TAX CRAFT STORY

Denouncing the attempt that the
right wing administration of the
Fancy Leather Goods Workers.
Union will make at Cooper Union to-
night to impose a $50 tax on the
membership, the Executive Commit
tee Of the Trades Union Educational
League of the union has issued the
following statement:
"The Shylocks of the Fancy Leath-
er Goods workers are attempting by
hook or by crook to steam-roller
through a hold-up proposition of a
$50 tax on the membership.
"The Shiplacoff- Wolinsky outfit
has not learned anything from the
reception that it received at the hands
of the membership at the last meet
ing. This. corrupt outfit is not pre-.
pared to give up its dream of $40,
900 grab from the membership.
Turn Down Proposition.
Last Thursdays meeting held at
the Rand School, which was called
for the purpose of jamming through
the tax recommendations, has shown
that the straw Napoleon Shiplacoff
with his vicious attacks on the left
wing, can no longer confuse the
minds Of the workers. Thus when
the great phraseologist proposed his
$50 tax he was answered by jeers
and laughter The Shiplacoff- Violin
skv gang seeing that it was beaten,
called off the meeting.
"At to-night's meeting the Shipla-
coff gang hopes to fare better. 1t
is coming better prepared and is de-
termined TO defy the membership
which is virtually unanimous in its
opposition to the outrageous tax.
