A suite of furniture may
be greatly overpriced at
$3.50, even though it was
reduced from $275. It is
difficult to Judge the value
Of a suite of furniture by
the size Of the reduction.
But at CARRIER Broth
ers', you need not hesitate
as to the value of the fur
niture, because WE
NEVER HAVE SALES"
We mark our furniture at
the lowest possible prices,
based on the economies
under which we operate
this business, such as low
rental overhead, low oper-
ating costs, manufactur-
ing facilities and other
economies. Our prices do
not fuctuate like stock
market prices. Our prices
are at q minimum every
day of the year.
And it has been empha-

tically proven that CARRIER
Brothers prices are as low
and lower in most In
stances than the prices
charged for furniture at
even the most alluring

Compare sale" prices
with CARRIER Brothers
everyday prices and
you will be amazingly sur
prised to find that not
only are CARRIER Brothers
prices lower but the
furniture represents q
standard Of quality that
is unQuestionable. We do
not carry passe furniture
or furniture bought spe-
cially for sales" purposes.
A visit to our beautiful
showrooms in our plain
Colonial building entails
no obligation and It
will prove interesting and

The struggle against prostitution
is one of the tasks which the Soviet
system is vigorously attacking in
it's steady progress toward a new
standard of life. This fight is based
upon the vocational education of
homeless women and their cultural
enlightenment. In many cities of
the Soviet Union there are special
sanitariums, called "phophylactoria,"
where women of the street are
placed in healthful surroundings
conducive to normal work and cul-
tural recreation.
The Bauman "Phophylactorium"
in Moscow may be cited as typical
institution of this sort. 1t was es-
tablished four years ago and has
succeeded in extending its beneficial
activity considerably during this
short time.
At present in the clean, light
rooms of the "prophylactorium" the
merry whirr of eighty sewing ma
chimes and thirty-nine knitting ma
chimes may be heard. One hundred
and sixty eight prostitutes have quit
the squares, stations and night lodg-
ing houses to take up sewing. They
have come here of their own free
will without compulson and without
obligation, and they may leave at
any moment. But they do not leave
They have forever abandoned the
street life with it's temptations.
4 Most of the women in the insti-
4 tuition are peasant and working girls
| Three-fourths Of them are victims
4 of unemployment.
4 During three years 646 peasant
and 109 working girls have beer
treated in the "prophylactorium.
Over half of them are single girl.
. without family between the ages 0.
eighteen and twenty five.
The workshops connected with thu
"prophylactoria" do not differ in an!

Agrarians.

Agrarians.
Today we find the agrarims sdi-
vided about as follows: Agricultural
workers (peons), 2,250,00O; semi
proletarian, 100000; middle pea
SAINTS, (Accomodado ranchero), 75,-
600; poor peasants (ranchero), $780,
600; haciendas (40po foreign), 5000
(of which about 1000 are very big
latefundistas).
Thus, we see, there are relatively
few peasants. strictly speaking, in
Mexico. 1t is the revolutionary
semi proletarians who have received
small pieces of land through the rev.
olution. But by these small pieces
of land The land hunger of the agra
rian masses was not appeased, it
was only aggravated. The ely fos
land is the big question before the
agrarian toilers at the present time.
Increased Exploitation.
With the increased invasion Of
American capitalism into Mexico the
conditions Of the masses have grown
worse. The failure of the Mexican
Revolution has been fully shown tc
the masses. The 8-hour day is or
paper. The number of unemployed
grows, with the continuance Of tht
imperialist boycott. Unskilled in
dustrial workers get, on the average
so cents day, skilled. 81 and s1.5t
(maximum, S2) a day. Mattresses
for example, work IA hours da!
for 81 week! The housing and so
cial conditions are very bad, even il
Mexico City, and are much wors,
lcutside.
| But it is when one deals with tn
agrarian masses that the full pic
ture of slavery is seen. The $3.50,

regards strictness and precision of
operating standards. During the
first six weeks of a woman's stay in
the "prophylactorium" some small
leeway is allowed with reference to
required output, but as soon as the
working routine and the collective
group effect have dislodged street
habits and capricious whims, the in
ternal rules and regulations assert
their inflexible sway.

Before we go any further it might
not be out of place to present some
statistical data as to the working
population in Mexico.
In 1921 Unfortunately no later
figures are available, although in
the main they hold true today,
there were from 100000 to 49,
e00,oG0 in Mexico. The exact num-
Der could not be ascertained because
of the large number (several mil
licn) of Indians living in the noun
tain wildernesses. At that time the
population was divided as follows
