BELGRADE, Yugoslavia. - The
proposed law directed against the
freedom of the national minorities
in Yugoslavia and which is now I'M
der consideration before the Bel
grade parliament (Skuptchtina)
has aroused great wave of pro-
test. According to the proposal all
national minority schools in the ma
tional languages are prohibited.
Children of national minorities
will have to attend classes in the
Slavic schools, but only in the first
four classes, while in the higher
classes the Slavic language is obliga-
tory. In the minority classes also
history and geography would have
to be taught in the Slavic language.
The law also proposes that children
with Slavic names can only attend
Slsy.c state schools.

attend and deal with the vital prob
lens facing them.
Officials of the Associated Silk
Workers Union, through their con-
troll of the machinery of the entire
union, have, first, dissolved the
Strike Committee chosen by the
broad silk workers; and secondly,
refused these workers the right to
hold independent meetings where
this strikebreaking act could be dis
cussed by the membership. Instead
they called large meeting, where
the broad silk workers were not per-
mitted to come in full force, and
where endorsement" of the terror
list tactics against the left wing was
railroaded through by the official
| dom.
Almost to a man, the entire broad
silk division-practically the larg-
est section of the organization
membership-are solidly behind the
left wing strike committee, which
declares its determination to fight
the bureaucrats in their sabotage of
the strike to a finish and also an
nounces its intention to take every
step necessary to win the strike,
gain union conditions and organize
the large number of big oper shop
silk mills.
Especial to the Daily Worker
PATERSON, N. j., Nov. 23.-An
occurrence that had the effect of
rousing the striking silk workers to
increased resentment against their
complaccnt officials, as was shown
at the strikers daily mass meeting,
took place here today when a striker
collapsed from hunger on the
streets.
The worker, known to the union
membership as one of the NEST ac-
tive strikers and a determined ad-
herent of the militant policies of
the left wing, was taken to the hos
pital, where he may be confined for
some time.
Score Bureaucrats.
The strikers, who are all solidly
behind the strike committee that
the officials are trying to GUST,
pointed out to these officials at
their mass meeting that they had
always refused to adopt the pro-
rosals of that committee that ma
tional relief campaign be begun.
Instead, the officials for a while
gave small doles and announced
some time ago that the treasury is
empty.
Not only was the demand for a
relief campaign not listened to, TIE
workers declare, but the treasury is
far from empty. The Ribbon Divi-
sion still has plenty of money, the
national office" has a treasury and
the union has buildings upon which
fairly large amounts of money can
be raised to give support to the
strike of the broad silk workers.
These funds the officials refuse to
touch.
The broad silk workers are, how
ever, preparing tc take decisive
steps toward winning their strike
and raising relief. This, among
other things, will be taken up at a
membership meeting of broad silk
workers this Saturday afternoon I'M
Ger the auspices of the left wing
strike committee.

An Open Letter.
Q the Republicans of Alaska:

To the Republicans of Alaska:
 Il am a strong party man. I believe that the existence of two parties, and the absence of more than two, is essential to the suc- cess of popular government" This is from very recent article by Chief Justice Taft, and voices my own belief precisely.
 And through party organization and teamwork is the only way to accomplish anything. A horse may be strong and willing, but if it will not work with it's teammates it is worthless in a four-horse hitch-up.
 AND THIS PRINCIPLE APPLIES WHEN CONSIDERING THE QUAIL LEGATIONS OF EACH AND EVERY CANDIDATE IN THE FORTHCOM- ING PRIMARY.
 While not at the head of the ticket the legislative positions are. perhaps, the most important, cer- tainly so from this point of harmon iously working together for the good of all.
 In the Fourth Division there are no complications, it simply being a matter of which four out of five good men shall survive; but in some, or all, of the other Divisions there are candidates filed as Repub- licans who under no circumstances ever acted with the party organiza- t1on in matters of legislation. These candidates should be ruthlessly eliminated, and men of known re- liability and stability should be chosen.
 The delegate to congress and the members of the Territorial legisla- ture should work together If you believe this to be true. then there

 Dan Sutherland.
 Scan every office and every candi- date, and study out just what it all means in terms of organization. teamwork, and results. Ability is a good thing, but worthless if not coupled up with reliability and stability. Great effort amounts to nothing if not usable, and is worse than nothing if misdirected.
 For the purely political positions of delegates and alternates to the Republican National Convention. the only names which should be consid- cred are Wm. H. Chase and James Wickersham for delegates, and Jacob B. Gottstein and Wm. D Grant for alternates. This for the very simple but powerful reason that these men represent the Repub- lican party, and not individual am- bitiOn nor greed.
 Any man who aspires to be Ma tional Committeeman ought to be enough of a strict party man that he will support the nominees of his party, in fact in his declaration of candidacy he swears that he will do this very thing; and yet, in the November, 1926 election Captain Lathrop spent time and money against the party nominee and in an effort to elect Tom Maruuam over Dan Sutherland; to try to elect renegade whose political backing was made up of mugwumps. so- called independents, and democrats. The only reason Captain Lathrop is in the field is that certain parties desire his election for the purpose of using him to offset the influence of the delegate to congress in matters of political patronage. A vote for Lathrop is an injury to Sutherland and to the entire Republican party.
 If I am elected National Commit teeman I shall not rest until the entire Territory is completely or ganized, so that each locality may handle it's own nolitical affairs

THE WISHING PARSON"

To an Alaskan of the later years the iGea of missionaries in the North seems somewhat odd, as one is &C., customed to associate missionary work with foreign countries, hard ships, and strange people. With the white American population of Alaska OntnumDecing the native and living in Alaska on the whole as comfortable as it is on the outside, one takes church effort on the same basis as in the states and forgets that the Alaska churchmen are mis- sionaries.
 When Dr. s. Hall Young first went to Alaska fifty years ago con- diriOns were far different. He tells what the differences were in his just published autobiography, the jacket of which describes him as ''The Mushing 'Parson." Anyone in terested in Alaska or interested in missionary work should read the
