Three Boy Scout Forests
to Be Planted in State

it is hoped that within short time
the waste lands will be converted
into places of real beauty.
This work is part of the Con-
servation Departments effort to put
the bare land back into the earning
column of the ledger of the State.
A comprehensive program for re-
forestation is being mapped out by
Richard Lieber, director of the de-
partment.
During the past few weeks the
Conservation Department has pur-
chased 142 acres of land at an aver
age price of 1923 an acre, bringing
the total land area of the Clark
County State Forest to ALSO acres.
About 100 acres of the last purchase
are in second growth oak, hickory
and pine and twenty acres consists
Of abandoned fields which will be
planted with pine and spruce.
The State forest land purchased
several years ago and valued then
at SO an acre is today worth from
twice to three times that price. Re

Three Boy Scout forests of fifty
acres each are to be started this
year by the Department of Conser-
Walton with the hope of not only
stimulating reforestation in Indiana,
but interesting Scouts in the impor-
lance of taking part in their State
Government.
One tract is at JaSonville, ono at
Clay City and the other at Linton.
The three areas arc in strip coal
mining fields. The Scouts will plant
and care for the trees and endeavor
to restore the unsightly terrain into
living, luxuriant growth.
Trees, land and tools will be fur
niShed by the Maumee Galleries
Company, together with the quar-
tiers wherein the Scouts will live
while doing the work. The first
paintings will include 1900 spruce
for later marketing as Christmas
trees.
The boys will be given half the
proceeds from the sales of the
spruce.
Shovel pits in these areas will be
stocked with fish from the Conser-
walton Department hatcheries and

ADMITS CRISIS
HITS INDUSTRY
Sees Growing Conflict
Of Bosses and Labor

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The
present unemployment situation fore
shadows a national crisis between
workers and employers which may be
reached in six weeks or may be post
poned till next year, Ethelbert Stew
art, United States commissioner of
labor statistics, admitted in a state
ment issued today.
After stating that there is a grow
ing labor surplus in this country,
Stewart says only part of it can be
absorbed in newly created industries.
Crisis Inevitable.
Only the date of the crisis is in
doubt, according to Stewart. The
crisis is inevitable, he says.
Stewart believes the crisis will be
similar to that which brought on the
eight-hour-day movement in the last
century, marked by the Chicago Hay
market affair. Stewards statement
urges shorter working hours.

Outlook Too Narrow.
Even the leaders of the movement

of their fight with the general ma

on along the whole front against the

Illusions Costly.
These illusions have been costly

The task of the conscious and left

two-fold; on the one hand, to recop-
nize unfailingly the tremendous
significance and potentiality of the
opposition movement which has
grown against the contract system
on the other hand, to help steer ii
out of its purely local channels and

WESTERN SUGAR
GROWERS BLEED
MEXICAN LABOR
Restrictive immigration
Opposed

WASHINGTON, March Sugar
beet and cotton growers in the south
west are putting up a determined
fight against the Box bill which seeks
to bring immigration from Mexico
under the quota law.
Fred Bixby, owner of large beet
growing acreage, was frank in stat
ing that the low wages given the
Mexican workers and the long hours
forced on them made their free entry
desirable to beet growers.
Mexicans Enslaved.
"You cannot get any white man to
crawl along on his stomach and thin
beets," Bixby told the house agri-
culture committee.
C. B. Moore, banker and cotton
grower from Calexico, Cal, stated
that non-Mexican labor would not
work in the mellon and cotton fields
of Imperial Valley, where the tenn
perature averages 113 degrees in the
shade. Mexican workers are prac-
tically enslaved in the southwest.

the one side and the Cappelini mach

the other.

Tense.
The struggle centers directly
around the growing evil Of the con-
tract system in the coal mines of the
Pittston region. This is means of
speeding up the miners and cutting
wages employed by the operators with
the collaboration of the Lewis Cappe-
lini machine.
The Contract System.
Under this system, sections of the
mines are leased out to individuals
who then employ other miners and
laborers to work them. The COM
panies give good locations to favor
ties and henchmen of the reactionary
officials who then hire other favorises
to work them, while the rank and
file militants suffer from discrimina-
ton. Intense bad blood is thereby
created and a bitter struggle, based
on economic interests, is transferred
directly into the union.
The -Cappelini machine, so
far from fighting against this
diabolical method of demoralizing
and disintegrating the union, work
hand in hand with the operators for
it's wider xtension. They have built
up their reactionary union-political
organization on the basis Of the con-
tract system.
Cappelini Treachery.
The story Of the treachery of
Cappolini, who was elected Distric
president in 1923 as a progressive"
pledged to fight the contract system
and who promptly betrayed the rank
and file miners, is one Of the blacklist
pages in the his DRY Of the Ameri-
can labor movement.
Alex Campbell was at the head Of
a powerful movement of the rank
and file miners which swept the re-
dictionary administration out of the
Pitts local. The new officials Of
the union, who took up the fight tc
safeguard the interests of the miners,
were openly marked for slaughtez
