Comforts, hell, who can be comfort

We find a regular United States
post office. How Gomez" The
sailors tell me that this godly crew
became so accustomed to opening
seamen's mail, addressed their care,
that the government had to install
its own office to check the prac-
tice. You can go to church here,
if you're that foolish, but Protestant
bunk only.
Vestris Conditions.
We find the Vestris crew and talk
to them, keeping weather eye out
for finks. Conditions on the Yes
iris ?" These Negro workers are
so used to them it don't strike them
as being remarkable. "Meat kinda
rotten, stinks bad. Not healthy
grub, no green vegetables" "Sal-
ads, like in the passengers mess? p"
mo, sir, never even heard of 'em."
Crowded sleeping quarters. Glory
hole stuff. Clean linen, well, maybe
once a month if the chief steward
don't forget"
Hours, four on and eight off for
the fire room. Only two watches
for the deck department-the r.
hour day. Wages, the British
standard, $47.50 for stokers, $45 on
deck. A steward don't quite like to
tell his wages. Mustn't be anything
to be proud of.
Under the Jolly Roger.
We talk Of Barbados and Trini-
dad, of the old Spanish Main now
the monopoly of British imperial
ism. Sugar plantations on Barba-
does. When I was there the Negro
workers, men and women, told me
they got % cents a day in the re-
finery we visited. A few got as
high as 40 cents. Everywhere, there
and in Bridgetown, the capital. beg
gars swarmed, young, old, men and
women. Girls almost kidnapped
tourist men on the main streets at
midday. Unemployment.
In Trinidad, at the city made ia
nous by pirates, Port-of-Spain, the
same thing. Plantation wages a bit
better in sugar, cocoa, cocoanuts.
Many share tenants, got to sell all
they raise to the landlords. Nifty
scheme-for the landlord. Best
wages in the oil fields, maybe a
dollar a day Country full of Hindu
bond-slaves, dare not leave the boss
till their terms expire.
Bubbling He'll.
Streets lined with women, offer

Trinidad is hell and Barbados an

That's why the Negroes take to

Profits for Owners.
Same for the other seamen,

just the same. Profits pile up for

OIL CAPITALIST
bOHENY SELLS TO
PACIFIC WESTERN
Suspect Wash Sale to
Hide Bad Reputation

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 81 U.P.
"A certified check for $25,000,00O
today concluded the transaction by
which the Pacific Western Oil Com
pany purchased the interests of E.
L. Doheny and E. L. Doheny, Jr., in
the Petroleum Securities Company.
The statement issued here said
that gin addition to the $25,000,000,
paid today, a cash payment of ST.
100000 was made Nov. 1, making
total of $26,OO0,0O0 cash paid for
the properties"
Is Doheny Buying Himself?
There is considerable mystery
about the ownership of the Pacific
Western Oil Co., the directors of
which seem in general to represent
no particular financial interests.
Theories of oil men vary between
two extremes, one that Standard Oil
capital has organized it to take over
Doheny's properties, against which
they began to fight when they had
their men in Washington prosecute
Doheny for fraud and revoke his
Elk Hills lease and otherwise dem
age his business, and another theory
that the Pacific Western Oil Co. is
merely Doheny money buying out
the somewhat furnished Doheny
leases, in order to get change of
name.

 The Governor said so far as he could observe, there was no want or pIlvations anywhere. None was brought 10 his attention nor did his studies reveal any.
 With c. W. Hawkesworth, Dis trict Superintendent of the Federal Bureau of Education, Gov. Parks visited Hoonah, Killisnoo Angoon, Rake, Craig, Hydaburg, Klawak, Metlakatla. Ketchikan, Wrangell, Pt.
