WAGE STABILITY
Seen as Continuing Into
Coming Year

By International Labor News Service.
New York City.-Wage rates in the
building trades will undoubtedly hold
at present levels for the remainder of
1927, and for the first quarter Of 1928,
according to the national monthly
building labor review of the Building
Economic Research Bureau of the
American Bond and Mortgage Com
pany.
"The apparent recession in building
operations" said the review, "has un-
doubtedly had much to do with the
present condition of wage stability
and tranquility in the construction in
dustry.
Building labor is well employed,
except in few districts where some
surplus of skilled mechanics has been
reported. Strikes and wage contro-
versies are unusually small in number
at this time
"The prices of building materials
generally continue their downward
trend and are more than per cent
lower than year ago."

to have said regarding self govern ment as printed in the Alaska Weekly. It was probably prepared by Juneau bureaucrats in an effort to protect Bartley from the criti- cism of his constituents. The bu- reaucrats surely owe Bartley some thing for the use they had of him during the legislative session but when they represent him to be a lover of free government and home rule for Alaska they are carrying the thing too far. They may i'm pose on the credulity of those who are not in touch with the political affairs in the territory but they can not fool those who know the Hon. Orable Bartley Howard.

FENCES

A young Indian boy of Sitka was recently arrested charged with stealing and selling four mink skins. He confessed his guilt and said he had sold the skins to Mrs. George Peterson, fur buyer and President of the Sitka School Board. When she was asked about it she declared that she bought the furs from the little fellow who could not have profited by the crime except with the aid of fur buyer who knew so we'll that the furs were stolen as to conceal the fact.

THE PROsPEOTORs AID BILL

This bill was for the benefit of prospectors and provided that pros pectors could get help from the Territory to help pay their trans portation charges. The limit was $15O.
 Tom Gaffney, (Friend of Labor), said, "I am thOroly opposed to this bill" He tried in many ways to kill the bill WITHOUT going on record. His last effort was to divide the money equally in spite of the fact, of the First Division Representa- tives, William l.. Paul offered to support a motion to give the Nome Division one half of the money for the purpose of stimulating devel- Opment there.
 But Tom Gaffney, former presi- dent of the Western Federation of Miners, only replied, "I am thoroly opposed to this bill.

JARDINE AND HOOVER
As Portrayed in the U. s. Senat4

As Portrayed in the U. s. Senate
 (Senator Wheeler)
 It is important to know what are the forces that named and still 1n- fuence Secretary Jardine. From the press reports and other circum- stances which are matters of com mon knowledge among Members of the Senate it is apparent that Will liam M. Jardine was appointed &c., cretary of Agriculture through the influence of SECRETARY HOOV- FIR. It was charged that his ap- pointment was with the distinct understanding that he would re- move certain subordinate officials in the Department of Agriculture and would support and carry out the agricultural policy of Secretary Hoover.
 Now for the sequel. In due time Secretary Jardine caused to be removed from office Dr. H. c. Taylor, Chief of the Bureau of Agri- cultural Economies, and MT. Chas. J. Brand, consulting specialist in marketing. Messrs. Taylor and Brand had supported the agricultur- al policy of their late Chief, Secre- tary Wallace, and had opposed the agricultural policy of Hoover, Secre- tary of Commerce.
 The Secretary of Agriculture be- came not the representative and champion of American farmers but the representative and spokesman of the Secretary of Commerce.

A LETTER FROM THE DESIGNER OF THE OFFICIAL FLAG OF
 ALASKA

hoCcn1Kan, Alaska
 Dear Friend:
 thank you for your congratu- lations to me. All the children i1 the Home were glad it was one of them that won the contest. I am an Alaskan and I was born in the town of Chignik, and my mother died and my father put me in the Jesse Lee Home when I was two years old. In a year later he bought a fox ranch which concluded two islands. And after that he got married to young lady at Kodiak the same time as our old Superin- tendent, Doctor Newhall, did.
 When I first came to Seward, wished I was back at Unalaska again. But now I like Seward just as good as I did Unalaska. Over at Unalaska we did not see the rac- es on the Fourth of July. But we went on picnic. But in Seward entered the pie eating contest and I won.
 I will be sure and try to stop at your office.
 Your friend,
 BENNY BENSON

BARBUSSE Tells
ABOUT COLONY IN
SOVIET UNION
Human Victims of Old
Regime Rehabilitated

MOSCOW, U.S.S.R., Oct, Con
September Is Henri Barbusse paid a
visit to the reformatory labour
colony in Sokolniki for the purpose
of studying conditions there.
For several hours the French
writer visited the workshops, talked
with the inmates on all sorts of ques-
tons of interest to him.
After a visit to the club where he
was informed about politico-educa-
tional work of the institution, Bar
busse wrote down the following
statement in the visitors book:
"In memory Of my visit and the
careful study which I made Of con-
ditions in the Sokolnii reformatory
| would like to say that I am full
of admiration for the humane and
careful treatment Of the inmates of
this institution.
"Basing myself on documentary
evidence I declare to the western
public that the USSR is transform
ing the prison into a means for
awakening the feelings of citizenship
and for stimulating love of labor
among the victims Of the old regime,
the dire results of which are not yet
eradicated.
"The institution which | visited to-
day is not a prison, it is work
shop, a labor settlement a "hos-
pitaP- Institute where the former
barbarous penal code has been re-
placed by the rational teaching Of
collective life which contributes tC
/ the rehabilitation of degraded human
beings. Henri Barbusse, September

delegates to this conference know that
the capitalist world hates the U. S. S
R. for these achievements and takes
up a threatening attitude to the So
Wet proletariat. We are ready side
by side with you to defend the U. S
S. r. from the attacks of its enemies
being willing even to lay down oul
lives. The mass of Czecho-Sloval

By WILLIAM F. dunno.

CIR Henri Deterding, the Hollander
y who bears title granted by an
English king, and head of Royal
Dutch Shell, the British controlled
company which is the chief COM
petitor of Standard Oil, has set off a
new blast against the Soviet Union.
The latest denunciation of the So
Wet government, which Sir Henri
characterizes as a gang of thieves"
and whose early fall he predicts, as
published in the New y = Times for
October 5, has two purposes.
First, it is part Of the general Of
fensive against the .oN4ec \ n.--l
carried on by British Imperialism.
Second, it is blow at Standard Oil
which has contracted for large
quantities of oil from the Soviet
Union and which is negotiating for
larger supplies.
CINCE the successful conclusion of
- these negotiations will strengthen
the Soviet Union and at the same
time give the Standard an accessible
oil supply with which it can enter in
to fierce competition with Royal
Dutch in many of it's most profitable
markets, and probably drive it out OF
some of them, Sir Henri makes his
annual discovery that the Soviet
Union is about to collapse.
WITHIN one month of the Tenth
w Anniversary of the establishment
of the Soviet Government, when thou
sands of workers are making the triI
to Moscow for the revolutionary an.
niversary, Sir Henri repeats all the
hoary and discreditedz hes of {
thwarted imperialist.
| On Page 1872 of his coil Imperial
ISM Louis Fischer has the following
to say about Sir Henri This book
by the way, is to be found on thI
desk of every oil company head il
the worldly
"Sir Henri is intent on preventing
a deal between the Russians and the
Standard. For what other reason die
he consent to make himself the laugh
ing stock of his fellow directors b!
writing letter to the London Morn
ling Post" in which he protested the
FALL OF THE SOVIET GOVERN
MENT BEFORE THE END OF 1926
Deterding knows full well, unless HI
is completely out of his wits, tina

Sir Henry Deterding = British
Imperialisn's Prophet

VENT FOR HIS ANTI-BOLSHE-
VISM. HE HAS NONE IN BUSI-
NESS. The letter and the prediction
it contained ARE A TRANSPARENT
ATTEMPT TO TERRIFY III f
STANDARD OIL OF NEW JERSEY
with which Sir Henri has close deal
ings."
TWO things are apparent from the
above quotation;
First, that Sir Henri's predictions,
while they express his wishes, have
very little to do with his real opinions
of the stability of the Soviet Union.
Second, Sir Henri's prophetic ability
is not to be taken very seriously since
his prophesy of 1926 is already year
overdue.
DUT what is serious is that con-
II trary to indications of some ten
days ago, Royal Dutch Shell backed
by British government, is carrying on
with considerable success its cam
paign against the Soviet Union in
France-a campaign which is linked
directly with the competition between
Soviet oil and the product of Royal
Dutch in French territory.
The attempt to recall Rakovsky
preliminary to a break with the So
Wet Union, behind which is British
diplomacy, is gaining Roadway, anC
unless checked by immediate future
developments will end in a rupture Of
the relations between the Soviet
Union and France.
BRITISH imperialism needs the OF
- reserves of the Soviet Union. L
needs them for its navy, its shiprin9
fleet and it's industry.
/ If it cannot get them on its own
1 terms it intends to allow no othe
. imperialist nation to have them-cer
tainly not America, its chief rival.
British imperialism will go to wa
on this issue and by making war OF
! the Soviet Union first it hopes t.
unite imperialism in a drive on thu
workers and peasants republic ant
for the time press the inner-imperial
list rivalries into the background.
WE see in these rapid development
w one outstanding fact: 1t is tina
the conflict between the imperialis
countries is not sufficient to checl
the imperialist offensive against tn
Soviet Union and remove the iminen
danger of open war upon it.
The latest denunciation of the So
Wet Union by the head of Roya
Dutch Shell, and even his FOOLS
prophecy, is sign for the workin,
class that defense of the Soviet Unioi
is the foremost of it's tasks.
