BELGRADE, Yugoslavia. - A
short time ago Gabriel Kranjec, the
secretary of the food workers union
in Zagreb, was arrested and escorted
to Zlatar in chains. He was arrest
ed because some of his revolution
airy writings, written eight years
ago, when they were still legal, were
found by the police. The brochures
were found during police raids which
recently took place in the villages.
In Sarajevo the worker, Mehmed
Jakubovic, was arrested because he
distributed leaflet of the workers
and peasants bloc on the approach
ing elections. Although the leaflet
has been ruled to be legal, Jakobovic
is still in Jail.
Arrests, Raids, Beatings.
Two months ago in Jajce (Bosnia)
the students, Alfred Bergman and
Jelena Cekic, We're arrested on the
ground of an accusation according
to which they were supposed to be
in communication with Yugoslav
emigrants abroad. Both were mis-
handled in the Belgrade Jail and
after few weeks they were turned
over to the Zagreb police, where
they remained another five weeks
without being heard. Finally Cekic
was released, while Bergman, in
spite of a court decision which found
him not guilty, still remains in Jail.
In Martinez (Smyrna) numerous
raids on the homes of workers and
peasants took place on the suspicion
that they "were sympathetic with
Communism" At the home of the
peasant, Drasic, was found bro
chure, The White Terror and the
Red Aid" which was turned over
to the higher authorities.
In Banjaluka (Bosnia) numerous
raids took place. Three workers
were arrested because legal newspa-
pers were found there. The gen
darmes threatened the workers with
beatings if they would again read
revolutionary newspapers.
In Mostar Herzegovina work

he spoke at meeting.
"They Must Be Sentenced"
In Lublpana (Laibach) the inves-
tigation against the workers Gustin-

to an end, and they were to be re-
leased. In the meanwhile, however,
an order came from higher authori-
ties that under all circumstances
material against them must be
found. The state began new in

THOUSANDS IN
new STRIKE At
INDIAN CENTER
Hartal Spreads Over
Entire Country

LONDON, England, Nov. 29.-Re-
ports received here early today from
Bombay state that the walk-out of
further crowds of workers in SYM
rathy with the gathering strike SEN
timent in the textile industry has
forced three more mills to shut
down.
Thousands Out.
Several thousands of workers are
already out in the strike which be-
gan four days ago, following imme-
diately on the heels of settlement
between the textile workers and the
mill owners. The settlement was
the outcome of the strike of the tex
tile workers which involved nearly
100000 textile workers and tied up
the industry for months in Bonn
bay. The strike was settled only
two weeks ago.
AS in the former big walk-out,
the present situation is finding
widespread repercussion throughout
the country. At this time, the gov
eminent is especially alarmed over
the possible repercussion which the
new strike struggle will have in a
country seething with a discomfort
among peasants and workers which
has taken its most recent open form
in the hartal or passive boycott of
the Simon Investigation Commits
sion. The object of the Simon Com
mission is ostensibly to study the
government of India with view to
introducing the home rule or edo
ninion status"
New groups of students are re-
ported to have joined the workers
and peasants in their hartal in many
cities and towns in the interior. The
hartal movement has spread
throughout the country.

LENINGRAD, (By MaiD Scien-

anxiety for the fate of three polar
expeditions from which no informa-
ton has been received for several
months.
One expedition under the head of
Pinegin left on Aug. IL on board
Polar Star" from Tiksy Bay (Ya-
kutia) towards the western part of
the great Liahovs Island in order to
build an Observation-Disclosures
station and radio station on the

From another expedition, headed
by Khmyznikov, no information has
been received since May of the cur
rent year. The expedition was max
ing Neurological works on the Yana
River in Yakutia as we'll as in its
estuaries. In the opinion of the
Soviet Academy of Science, this ex-
petition ought to have finished its
work long time ago and returned
to Yakutsk.
From the third expedition, under
the head Of Tchistov, no informa-
ton has been received for six
months. This expedition was en-
trusted with the task of preparing
bases for the airplane ''Sovietsky
Sever" which intended to fly to
Taimyr.
The Academy of Sciences has sent
a request to the Central radio sta
ton in Leningrad and to the society
Friends of Radio" asking them to
try to get in touch by radio with
the above mentioned expeditions.

when the left wing won over a ma
jority on the original Strike Com
mittee. They therefore "dissolved"
it and chose another handpicked COM
mittee which was Systematically
robbing the strike of its chances of
victory, by calling off strikes with
out even the formality of the fake
agreements and, in addition, by
sheer incompetency.
National Textile Workers Union.
At the membership meeting Sat
urday, the workers intend to put on
the order of the day, the problem Of
making valid the fake agreements
entered into by their officials, thru
the organization of the great num-
bers of unorganized silk workers and
the winning of the strike of those
now out. In order to be able to
carry out this program OF action, the
meeting intends to take a definite
stand on their attitude toward the
militant National Textile Workers
Union and it's proffers of aid in their
problems.
Proof that the Paterson silk work
ers need immediate aid from a ma
tional textile workers union was
pointed to by the members of the
Strike Committee. Abraham Wolf,
Inc, large silk and rayon manufac-
turer, of Mill St., moved all the
machinery and his entire plant to

excuse of ''labor disturbances"

ton that will teach such an en-
ployer that he gains nothing but
added expenses if he moves to an
other textile center, because a ma
tional union would pull strike in
his new plant and enforce the union
standards that the boss thinks he
has escaped from.
Ladder Glad to Run.
At the strikers mass meeting
Wednesday morning, the officialdom
hired Harry Ladder, socialist party
spokesman, to address the strikers.
Not since the Strike Committee dis
solution took place, has a represen-
tative of the yellow socialist party
been able to comfortably conclude a
speech there. And Ladder proved
no exception.
After a speech in which he con-
graduated the meeting for "obtain-
ing unity at last" he was compelled
to face the questions of the workers
in the hall, who angrily demanded
to know what kind of unity" was
achieved by the expulsion of the
most active and devoted elements.
When Ladder tried to brazen it out
by saying 1--WE must expel you, when
you take orders from foreign coun-
tries" dangerous atmosphere was
created at the meeting. Recognizing
this Ladder grabbed his coat and
began to walk toward the stage exit.
This was met with the cries of some
workers, "Don't run away, answer
cur questionsl" but the large num-
bers in the hall shouted: "No! Let
him ge; we have no use for him."

Heavy Snowfall in

DENVER, Col, Nov. 20 (UP).-
Clouds of snow swirled down in
deep drifts throughout the Rocky
Mountain region today, to bring the
heaviest Thanksgiving snowfall in
several years.
The snow in most of the districts
was six to twelve inches deep on
the level, while in many places it
had drifted to depth Of several
feet. Many roads were blocked
completely. In some places railroad
service was interrupted. Mountain
passes were closed. In Denver
street cars were kept running only
by constant use of snow-plows.

ously for more than "a hours.

Doty's friends are trying to get
him released from his service.
Probably he doesn't know about
their activities, and perhaps he
would resent them, but if Doty
is released his will be q very ex-
traordinary case. Such a thing
almost never happens in the Lee
gion. The American State Depart
ment is practically %powerless to
intervene because Doty, by join
ing the French Legion, automati-
cally ceased to be an American
citizen. He is a nan without a
country.
The men of the Legion come
drifting from many countries, for
reasons best known to themselves.
Since the war a large proportion
of the members have been Ger
mans. With their courage they
have pride, and probably many of
them wouldn't think so much OF
Doty if he did accept release

Sure of Enough Action
When the French are in a fight
the Foreign Legion is SUR to be
there. And there is nearly always
fighting somewhere along the far
away frontiers of France. Doty
joined his regiment at Sidi Bel
Abbes, in Algeria, but he is al
most sure of service in the hills
this winter.
He may even go back to Syria,
for the natives are again showing
signs of restlessness and some
thing may have to be done about
it. If so, the Foreign Legion will
do 1t. Doty may be able to vindi-
cate himself in the land where he
weakened once. =
Doty enlisted for eight years,
but this enlistment period may
under certain circumstances, be
cut to five. Doty has nearly four
more years to serve. If he lives
through it his thirst for adventure
will probably be satiated-

WORLDS SUGAR SUPPLY


Uncle Sam, with one-fifteenth
OF the worlds population, con
sumes nearly one-fourth of all the
sugar produced on the globe.
Latest statistics show the 1927
worlds sugar production totalled
about 1888, OOO, 900 pounds. Of
this amount u, 750,0 O0, 900 pounds,
or "a per cent, were consumed in
the United States, totalling more
than 109 pounds per person. Per
capita consumption of pork during
the same period was 84.4 pounds,
milk Sc gallons, butter IL pounds,
eggs 1876 dozen, bread II pounds,
and dressed beef, mutton, veal and
lamb 1871 pounds, according to a
survey made by Otto Y. Schner-
ing, president of a large candy
company.
Sugar consumption in this
try has increased 40 per cent
since 1914. F%ifty-eight per cent
of this country's sugar supply
comes from Cuba, 25 pei cent
from Hawaii, Porto Rico and the

ing each tuck stitched farther out
than the one above it and having
them all point down at the CEN

Tucked Fronts
The skirt varies the modernis-
tic tucking of the blouse to take
groups of tucks all around its
front and sides-1ve groups i'll
all. There is a tendency to bring
back the all-around tucked or
pleated skirt but women have
learned that tucked fronts stay in
press just about four times as
long as a%ll-around tucks. 1t seems
likely that a continued vogue for
front tucking and plans will be
the established thing.
