HEINlE SNElDER OF WASiLLA SENDS TO BREEDERS TO
 FARMS ON COAST

The growing importance of the fur industry in Alaska is being demon strated in striking manner by the
 number of live mink now enroute through Seward to breeding grounds in other parts of the Territory. 128 live mink arrived in Seward Satur. day from the fur farm of Heinie Sneider on Lucille Lake at Wasill9. Fifty pair of these were sent to Jun
 eau on the s. s. Alaska and IA pair are awaiting the Admiral Evans for shipment to Petersburg. Next Satur- day 20 pair will be brought in from the Wasillla farm for shipment to Seldovia and Port Ashton.
 MT. Sneider, who is an authority on Alaska fur farming, departed on today's train for his ranch to prepare for the next shipment. After five years of propagation of mink, fox and marten he is an enthusiast on the future on the fur industry Through careful breeding strains are being perfected that will greatly aid in the establishment of fur farms throughout the Territory and to sup ply the rapidly growing demand in Canada and the United States.
 MT. Sneider has breeding pack of mink numbering $50, and the new crop of pups this spring numbered .238 He has produced some fine fox and his marten are coming along with indications of fine specimens. His work is along the same lines of .the big Cole fur farm proposition now being launched at Kusilof, where propagation is being started on a large scale of silver fox, derived from some of the best strains from the Outside. After several years of inves- tigation Nr. Cole has stated that Al- aska offers the best opportunity fer fir production as the climate and natural food conditions here offer the best chance of securing a prime fur lat least cost. Mr. sneider has plans for the enlarging of his farm which he says will be put into immediate effect.

America Exports Propaganda.
(By a Worker Correspondent =.

DETROIT, (By MaiD British i'm
perialists are hiring Americans to do
their propaganda for them. Ever since
the Russian revolution the propagan-
dists of imperialist and capitalist in
terests all over the world, particularly
in Great Britain, the oldest and larg-
est imperiaist power, have been busy
predicting the collapse of the Soviet
government and circulating the most
fantastic stories about the Soviet
Union, China and India.
There is nothing surprising about
this; for have not the same propa-
gandists for the last one hundred and
fifty years with equal energy and
conviction, been singing the praises of
England's exploiting mission in India,
proclaiming all along with grama-
phonic fidelity the incompetence of In
dams to look after their own affairs :?
After the late world war, on no SUBJ
ject have the powerful and untiring
agents of the dominant classes in the
imperialist lands written so rapidly
and often as on the Soviet Union or
the red peril.
Catherine Mayo, an American lady,
was hired by the British imperialists
to write a malicious book against In
dia. While Mr.. Ivy Lee, also an Amer
lean, and man distinctly allied with
capitalism, and believer in the rights
of private property as the basis for
the future prosperity and happiness
of mankind, has been employed to
write on the Soviet Union.
Q He was in the U. S. S. R. for less
than three weeks. During this short
time ne formed his impressions of a
country with 100000 square miles
of territory, with 140,000,000 people,
speaking 100 different languages and
representing innumerable customs, re-
ligious beliefs and historical and ra-
cial backgrounds.
At least it is interesting to know
that 100 different languages, innum-
cradle customs and the rest Of it, need
not form an obstacle to country's
political independence.
In the last chapter Mr.. Lee showed
his own color. He has exposed him
self as a capitalistic philosopher.

EXPOSE SCHW ARTENBA ZACH
SILK MILLS.
(By a Worker Correspondent

BAYONNE, N. j., (By MaiD =
Five hundred workers, mostly girls,
are employed at the millionaire silk
mills of Schwartzenbeck-H Huber Co.,
located at 18th Street and Avenue B,
Bayonne, N. ]. Nearly all these
girls are Polish girls who are staunch
Catholics and are bulldozed into being
satisfied with their condition, by the
Catholic priests, and that is one rea-
son why our conditions are so bad
here.
The weavers handle three or four
looms, and get from Az to 81 cents
yard for their work, according to
the quality of the silk. We get $10.45
as flat time wage, and never more.
We get about $23 or $24 a week on
the average, and $10.45 of this is for
time. The company seldom pays US
ON time, but usually makes us wait
2 or 3 days for our money. We get
paid twice month, and the company
pays US by check, which is very hard
on the girls, who gex very little
chance to cash their checks because
they are working from 7 to II and
l to 5, which is 8 hours. If we are a
minute late, the gate is closed on us
for half a day, and we lose the pay,
of course. In the summer time we
are always laid off one or two weeks.
Besides weavers, there are Wrappers
and winders. The Wrappers are paid
about S. warp, which is 10 cuts Of
60 yards each. They never can make
that much day tho. We have no
union in the Schwartzenbeck- Huber
mills, because the girls, altho they
are not treated well, are scared by
their priests and are told not to form
unions. "A SILK WORKER.

Try to Break Capmakers

Chicago capmakers are about to ap-
pear before Judge Denis Sullivan who
issued an all-inclusive writ against
these locked-out unionists. Sullivan
will be both prosecutor, judge and jury
in the contempt case. If he finds
that the capmakers have been con-
temptuous of his order, as he charges,
he will be in position to impose either
fine or Jail upon them. The injunction
was issued although the employers
had broken the contract they had
signed with the union and which was
not to expire until next year.

Face Unemployment Issue.
(By a Worker Correspondent


That the building trades workers in
New York are considerably agitated
by the growing evil of unemployment
is evidenced by the fact that a meet
ing called last week by the Inter-Lo-
cal Club of the Painters Union to
discuss the unemployment situation
was attended by so large crowd that
a larger hall than first arranged had
TO be hired.
The chairman, Dave Rappaport,
briefly explained that the purpose of
the meeting was to compel the Of
ficials of the District Council to take
steps to obtain relief for the unem-
ployment crisis in the building trades.
The speakers at the meeting were: A..
Melnick, a painter and Jack Paul, a
member of the Carpenters Union.
r heir sp e h e criticized the
officials of all the building trades
unions for not organizing the grow
ing number of open shop jobs. They
pointed out that this factor greatly
contributed to the lack of employ
ment among the union men.
A series of demands upon the Of
ficials of the District Council were
unanimously carried. They are: A
demand be made for city work under
union control; unemployment fund
organized and controlled by the locals
themselves; equal division of work;
unemployment statistics to be kept
by the union.
A speaker from the Unemployed
Council was also introduced. He out
lined the unemployment problem in
the country generally. Enthusiastic
applause greeted the stating of the
demand of that organization, that no
jobless workers be required to pay
rent when they are out of work. He

SHOE WORKERS
RAP BETRAYERS
Fight Officialdom and
Arbitration Scheme
Especial to The Daily Worker)

NOPSCeWt " L 'VO 4(Nt0 " N'NN'/
HAVERHILL, Mass, Feb. 49,
John D. Dolan, president of the Shoe
Workers Protective Union, resigned
from the arbitration committee estab-
lished after the settlement of the last
strike in which 5000 workers were in
volved. The designations Of Joseph
Bearak, socialist attorney for the
union and James Rooney, chairman of
the District Council of Shoeworkers
locals are also expected. The resig-
nation of these three who took upon
themselves the job of representing
the Haverhill shoe workers in COM
pulsory arbitration committee against
which the workers fought, means the
actual dissolution of the arbitration
committee.
Council Hits Betrayers.
When attorney Bearak appeared be-
fore the District Council and in
formed the delegates that he had
agreed to certain ''relief measures" to
aid the Greenstein Shoe Company,
trouble developed. The relic f
measures, it was disclosed, involved the
loss of conditions for which the shoe
workers had fought bitterly. There
fore the Council promptly defeated
the actions of the socialist attorney
who was so ready to help the en-
ployer at the expense Of the workers.
The District Council went further
and stripped the committee of all
power, thus declaring an open vote
Of non-confidence against President
Nolan and Attorney Bearak. The
manufacturers association interprets
this as an open move to dissolve the
arbitration board which was assumed
to have full power.
Fight Collaboration.
The shoe workers under rank and
file leadership in the strike, made no
secret Of their opposition to any form
of arbitration committees which, in
practice, worked against the interests
of workers. The action of the Dis
trict Council shows that the workers
will continue their opposition to these
compulsory schemes which bind the
workers to poor working conditions
and low wages.

ably the audience should not remem-
Der the story, anyway it undoubted-
ly will bring in the shekels for it's

AS to its entertainment value, that
is another question. From the time
the curtain is raised until the end of
the third act, one is constantly await
ing the next feature. And no one
can deny that the producers have been
liberal in fitting out the production.
The cast includes many favorites
of musical comedy including Billy B.
Van, Lynee Overman, Frank McIn-
tyre, Carl Randall and Jeanette Mac
Donald. One must not forget the
chorus of pretty girls who keep on
the go all evening.
While many jokes are told during
the evening most of them are very
ancient and should either be replaced
or left out of future performances.
The music by Jean Schwartz is
stimulating and undoubtedly contains
some of the popular dance music for
the next few months. Especially

The costumes are charming, the
same can be said for the settings by
Watson Barrat. All in all, it is like
attending a glorified vaudeville show.
The book and lyrics are by Clifford
Grey and William Cary Duncan. AS
to the plot, that is of no Importance

Husband Murdered; Wife Dies.
Mrs. Frances Chavez whose hus-
band was wantonly killed by state po-
lice at Walsenburg Jan. IL is also
dead, a victim at 81 of pneumonia
aggravated by grief at the murder of

that Chavez was unarmed at the time
of his death and that the state police
killed him in an ''unprovoked and
brutal manner"
While all this violence is going on
the mine operators, under the domina-
ton of Rockefeller's Colorado Fuel &
Iron Co., are continuing their practise
of short weighing their men and
paying starvation wages. The man
ager of the Fraker Coal Co. admitted
to the state industrial commission
that the railroad scales at his mines
have not been used for a year. The
cheating works both ways. Not only
is the miner deprived of full weight

sumner must frequently pay in winter

they reach Denver, it was CLEANED
