tering about it, is the background
for the rugs, shawls, and furniture
of oriental Russia.
In addition to the examples of
peasant hundicrafts, the Exposition
contains an important showing of
the fine art of the new Russia. More
than 800 paintings, sculptures,
drawings and etchings have been
sent, representing all of the we'll
known artists in Russia today.
One of the gayest sections of the
Exposition contains the toys. All
over Russia, the peasants make
hand-carved toys during the long
winter months. The skill that Gre

Carved and painted dolls, with every
detail of costume exact; highly col

and rings; funny animals with NOV

some certain section of Russia.
One of the most interesting ex-
amples of the new creative feeling
among the simple peasant artists
is seen in the exhibit of carved ivory
objects.
For centuries, the peasants of
Northern Siberia have dug out of
the glacial ice the fossilized tusks
of the great mammoths and other
animals that roamed that region in
prehistoric times. From these they
carved with the most delicate skill,
little figures, of reindeer, people, or
scenes of their nomad life. These

The conditions are very favorable
for this. But the present admins
tration is stagnant one. They are
opposed to the organization of the

who propose to do anything. They
are pessimistic--they don't believe
that the factories can be organized.
They have no faith in the labor

How can you depend on them to

GARMENT BLDG
BULLETIN ISSUED
Calls on Workers to
Organize, Fight

Calling on all workers employed
in the Garment Capitol Center build
ing, 49S Seventh Ave, to protest
against the latest practice of the
bosses, that of making the workers
ride on the freight instead of the
passenger elevators, the Garment
Center group of the Workers (Com-
munist) Party yesterday distributed
the first building bulletin in the his
tory of the Party to the 1000 work
ers employed in the building.
The bulletin, calling upon the
workers to fight for their rights
by joining the Needle Trades In
dustrial Union, was enthusiastically
greeted by the workers. Following
is the bulletin in full:

humiliation of being forcibly pulled
out of the line waitir- for the pas
senger elevator and sent around the
corner to the freight elevator-just
as you would kick or knock about a
bundle of rags, or a herd of cattle
or swine?
"Yopr bosses put you in the same
class as the mute freight that does
not speak, does not ask any ques-
lions and never protests.
"You, the dressmakers, cloakmak-
ers and other workers of the Gar
ment Capitol Center Building, who
are made to slave long hours for
starvation wages; you who are ex-
plotted to the very limit; you who
make all the profits for your bosses,
you who provide your bosses with
the best of everything and your
selves suffer misery and poverty.
Join Needle Union.
"Think of it. 1t is only because
you are not organized that your
bosses can dictate to you any con-
ditions of slavery that they please.
But there is the new Industrial
Union of the Needle Trades, that
is organizing the thousands of nee
die trades workers into a strong
and powerful union, that will do
away with the inhuman conditions
of slavery which you are now made
to suffer.
"You are part of the vast army
of needle trades workers and you
will, like them, also revolt against
the miserable conditions under which
you work and live, including the
latest act of tyranny on the part
of your bosses-that of showing you
like cattle onto the freight eleva-
tor-that you will also strike and
fight for your union, the new In
dustrial Union of the Needle Trades.

insult back into the faces of your
bosses.

ALASKA BUREAU OFFICES
 TO BE MOVED NORTH

SEATTLE.-Reerganization of the Federal Bureau of Education by Commissioner William Cooper will probably mean transfer of the Se- attle office to Alaska.
 Such is the belle fof Jonathan H. Wagner, chief of the Alaska division of the United States Bureau of Edu- cation. Wagner has just returned from Washington, where heconferred with Cooper about the prospective reorganization
 Juneau will probably become, the new headquarters of. the Alaska bu- reau, it is believed here, and the pur- chasing department will probably re- main in Seattle when Wagner is or dered North.
 Wagner said he does not know what other agency the administration of the Alaska educational system could be turned over to- He is il1- olined to the view that the reindeer and medical branches of the Alaska bureau might be turned ovar to some other department of the interior off cial for administration

Flames Take
 Seven Lives

 THIRTEEN INJURED.

SEATTLE.-Trapped in a mass of flames and smoke, seven persons lost their lives and thirteen were injured in a fire which. swept through the Portland Hotel at 4:30 o'clock this morning. Several of the injured are in a critical condition and not ex- pected to live.
 Bremen said that roomer' at the Grand Central Hotel, across the street, turned in the alarm. He said he looked out of the window at 4:30 and saw the fire through the windows of the Portland hotel, adding that it looked like the flames were on the stairway.
 None of the dead was identified.
 The hotel is an old three-story brick structure on First avenue just south of Yesler way, in the oldest section of Seattle. It soperated by K. Mayeda, a. Japanese. whose wife was critically injred when she leaped from a third-story window.
 Several firemen were overcome by smoke, but all were rescued. Despite the dense smoke, which made fire fighting difficult, the blaze was over in less than half an, hour.

ONLY 22 CLAIMS ARE AL
 LOWED IN SOPHIA CASE

LOWED IN SOPHIA CASE
 Out of 211 claims in the Princess Sophia disaster, only 22 are to be paid, according to a recent ruling made by Judge Netterer, federal judge at Seattle. The ruling almost competely reverses the action of A.. c. Bowman. @
 Judge Netterer allows $10,0O0 for each claim, which is. the maximum under the Alaska law, which aggre- gates $22D,OOo.
 In reaching the damages, it was argued, the commissioner failed to follow the Alaska statute, which pro- vides that the measure of damages must be, based upon the earning ca pacity, prospective life, ability to save and accumulate money and other matters which would give the court an idea of what the person would have been worth if life had not been lost.
 The Princess Sophia was lost in Alaska waters, October 25, 1918. On February 28, 1919, the heirs of those lost at sea started suit against the company under the statutes of Alaska, which limit the liability for death of an adult at $10,O0O and for a child at $5,O00.
 The administrators of the estates of the following will be paid the sums allowed. James AIlmark, Charles M. Calleman,- Charles s. Chinery, Charles Chanquist, s. Chanquist, Michael Davis, J. E. Corner, Nellie G. Corner, Jim George, Frank L. Gibbs, John C.. Green, Lars A. Hansen; Sam Henry, Josephine Henry, Charles w. Leber, Guy G. McCrait, Thomas McMahon, Charles o. Nelson, Henry D. Park ing, Albert D. Pinska, Oscar Poppert and William Scouse.
 Nearly four hundred persons per ished on the ill-fated Canadian liner when a sudden storm showed her off a rock on which she grounded in Lynn Canal. Every person on board was drowned, and suits were filed by relatives and friends to recover dam ages for their death under the Alas kan statutes.
 It was contended by the Canadian Pacific Railway, in arguing it's excep- tions to the report of U. s. Commis- sioner Bowman. who heard and took evidence in the Sophia case, that the commissioner failed to follow the rules laid down by the court, and that in arriving at the awards made in his findings of fact did not reach his con- clusions as fixed by statute. At the conclusion of the arguments the case was taken under advisement by Judge Netterer and his decision ren- dered after several weeks considera- ton.

DOUKHOBOR SECT BATTLES
 RESIDENTS OF NELSON. B. C. NELSON, B. CA Doukhobor wo- man sustained broken leg and some of the men leaders were used roughly when about 250 men, women and chil- dren, members of the Sons of Free dom sect, marched from their camp outside the city limits into the city in an attempt to "join their brotohers in jail"
 As the chanting Doukhobors came to the center of the city their pass age was blocke by barricade of trucks and automobiles. Leaders halted the throng and declared they would disrobe if they were not per- mitted to go to jail.
 This started battle, and citizens of Nelson moved upon the massed fa- natics and police joined in the melee. It was about an hour before the Doukhobors were eiected from the town and were back in camp. They said they would parade again, this time probably nlinue clothing. Thirty-two members of the Sons of Freedom sect who more than week ago were found gudltyof indecent ex- posture and like an equa number yes- terday were remanded for sentence. Each one convicted admitted disrob- ing, but most of them openly defied the laws of the Canadian conurt. More than sixty cases are yet to be heard.
 There were women in the nude pa- rade which was a protest against the arrest of one member of the sect charged with burning a Doukhobor schoolhouse.
