U.S.S.R. Experts
On Fruit Trading
Study in America

A delegation of fruit experts rep
resenting Soviet trading organizations
which market about 100000 metric
tons of fruit yearly has arrived in this
country to make study of the Amer
lean fruit industry and to place orders
for fruit canning and drying equip
ment, it was announced yesterday by
the Amtorg Trading Corporation
which handles purchases of machin-
cry for the Soviet Union.
According to members of the dele
CATION only 25 per cent of the Soviet
Union normal fruit crop of 100000
tons is usually delivered to the prin-
cipal consuming centers of the coun-
try. This condition is due to insult
ficient transportation means, as we'll
as to the lack of modern facilities for
conserving fruit and vegetables. AS
much as one half of the fruit crop goes
to waste. 1t is with a view to con-
serving the crop for domestic con-
sumption that the Soviet government
proposes the establishment of num-
Der of plants for drying and canning
fruit to be equipped in accordance with
the most modern requirements.
"The United States with its highly
developed fruit canning and drying
industry has been naturally chosen
for our study Of production methods.
We expect also to purchase in this
country machinery for several fruit
canneries and drying plants" stated
Mr.. NJ. Zlotin, member Of the dele
cation. Other members are A. N.

Railway Mail Union
Avoiding Strikes,
Still Dissatisfied

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. - Back
from the 18th national convention at
Boston, officers of the Railway Mail
Association, the A. F. of L. union
of the railway postal service, sketch
ed the unions program for the COM
ing biennium. Primary in the legis-
lation to be asked of congress is the
Kelly postal policy bill providing that
the post office department shall be
conducted for service rather than
profit. Otherwise the department will
be forced into the dilemma of oppres-
sive postal rates on industry or low
wages and bad working conditions for
the men in the service.
Wages and conditions of postal
workers must be based on American
standards, the union argues. Inas-
much as the organization has no
right to- strike, its standards must be
judged against those of union work
ers who do establish the going wage
rates and brought up to their level
the association insists. Other points
in the Legislative program include:
Dual hour and mileage bill for road
clerks.
A time differential in favor of
night workers.
a more rigid steel mail car law.
Higher wages, vacation and sick
leave for substitutes.
44-hcur week for terminal, trans
fer and office clerks.
S1,2G0 retirement annuity, with
provision for payment of so per cent
of the annuity to the widow
The Uniou demands the end of the
speed up system introduced by Will
Hays and Harry New, the republican
postmaster generals. Thirty days
for vacation. instead of Is is also
sought.
The convention made no demand
for general wage increases but in
dorsed the principle of additional pay
for long service. An increase of 500
at the beginning of the tenth year
and $500 additional for each five
year period thereafter was recon-
mended
Additional funds were voted for or
ganization work Insurance benefits
for disability due to accidents were
raised from $21 to S24.50. The as
ISOLATION has paid nearly $250,00O in
weekly benefits to $500 members in
the past two years and $65,000 to the
beneficiaries of 16 members killed on
duty.
All national officers were re-elect-
ed. They include President W. M.
Collins, H. w. Strickland, industrial
secretary and editor; Vice-President
j. F. Bennett and Secretary R. E.
Ross.

SACC0 AND vANzETTI ARE DEAD!

as regards to the conditions in Massa-
chusetts and that it increased the
solidarity Of the working class every
where but all this would be useless
for any purpose unless it be trans
lated into cold, determined, relentless,
everlasting determination to uproot
the United States and the world of
the cursed system of capitalism with
the destruction of middle class rule
forever which has demonstrated thou
sands of times its unfitness to rule
society. The last great war with the
destruction of millions of people and
billions of treasure for the settlement
of a mere commercial dispute ought
to have awakened all of the people
There was one way which promised
success and that was a general strike
in Massachusetts as complete and far
reaching as could be which would have
been supported by the working class
and radical middle class of the whole
world but this was not acted upon.
The loss of profits to the capitalist
owners and the ten or twelve corpora.
tons which absolutely control the
destinies of the State of Massa-
chusetts would have caused them to
compel their governor and judiciary
to have given justice to Sacco and
Nanzetti. So far as | know the Sacco
and Nanzetti case is the only case in
the whole world where men were ex-
ecuted for crime someone else con-
tessed the guilt of. Bandits shooting
up paymasters has been somewhat
common in Massachusetts for MANY
years and the capitalists of that state
have always been furious and thew
care not at all whether the right or
the wrong man suffers if thew can
make striking example of anyone
VINO happens to be accused of such
an offense. Never in the whole his
tory OF the courts of Massachusetts
were they ever known to decide in
favor of labor. 1t seems to be well
understood that in return for faith
full service Of the courts to the CANT
talist class the courts may in return
give anything within or without the
law 10 perpetuate their own power.
The courts are above the law and in
ring whose laws and authority are
stronger than the famed Modes and
Persians which is the result of abso-
lutte life tenure of all judges in that
State. 1t is an error to think that
facism was born in Italy because it
has always existed in Massachusetts.
The United States differs in degree
and not in form to Roumania. Italv
Poland and any other capitalist coun-
try. That this government is pre-
dlcated on life, liberty and Justice is
and always has been damnable lie.
The Sacco and yanzetti case with all
its aspects demonstrate the truth of
this statement.
Massachusetts is the only State
having absolute life tenure of Judges
appointed for life, cannot be sued
clvilly, prosecuted criminallv en-
joined, impeached or removed for anv
cause.
