BY BEATRICE BLOSSER

1t is only with the capture OF
power by the working class in the
Soviet Union that women have at
last been given the opportunity to
develop their full powers. When
the working class takes power, the
prejudices carefully fostered by the
bourgeoisie are swept aside, and
women are welcomed into the ranks
of the organized workers.
The women of the Soviet Union
have shown themselves to be of
even a higher capability than was
imagined. Coming from the most
backward villages, from the most
oppressed sections of the working
class, they have shown lemselves
eager to learn, as though they had
been only waiting thu all time for
this chance. In many instances they
have shown them Ives to be even
more quick, more eager, more
lively, than the men to take ad-
vantage Of the opportunities offered
by the Soviet government.
In the Soviet Uni, women have
been given an opportunity to reach
any high post for which they have
been capable. Thus We find women
judges, women as directors and as
sistant directors of factories, and
women on the delegate bodies and
executive coE.,-:ittees of the unions
wherever women are employed.
We must not think that in the
Soviet Union women are restricted
in the trade they may take up. For
example, 8 per cent of the members
of the Railwaymen's Union of the
Ukraine are women, and there is a
woman on the executive committee
Of that union. The Abelman Spin
ming and Weaving Factory of Kov-
row has a woman director, for the
majority of workers in the textile
industry are women. There are
women representatives also on the
presidium of the All USSR Textile
Workers Congress as a matter of
course. The women working on the
railroads had a special congress of
their own in 1928 to take up their
special women's problems. This is
also the case in the factories of the
other industries where there are
many women, as the women have
many special problems.
The women of the Soviet Union
are given every opportunity to learn
all trades of the men. In the Krups-
kaya Electro-technical courses, 81
per cent of the students are women.
These courses range from one to
two years. There are 768 women
apprentices attending the railroad
courses of the Perova Railroad
shops. These courses last two
years. At the end of to course,
the women receive certificates as
locksmiths, turner's, polishers, and

Canter Anncal Heard.

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 5.-The
Supreme Court of Massachusetts
heard appeal yesterday on the case
of Harry j. Canter, Boston worker,
serving a years Imprisonment for
terming Governor Fuller murderer
of Sacco and Vanzetti." The court
decision will follow in 10 days.
Canter was candidate for mayor
of Boston on the Communist ticket.
His name was stricken from the
ballot after his conviction, but thou
sands of workers voted for him, dis
regarding the official ruling.
Canter, printer by trade, was
very active in the work of the In
ternational Labor Defense, and in a
demonstration last August, on the
first anniversary of the execution of

victed of libel.

Auto Workers Hear Foster.

PONTIAC, Mich, Nov. An
tense naturalization has given
bosses greater profits and thrown
workers on the streets, was the
point made by Secretary Foster of
the Trade U. U. L. in his report
on the Cleveland convention here.
He spoke under local T. U. U. L,
auspices.
"In Pontiac alone, thousands of
workers are reaping the golden
fruits of naturalization" Foster
said. after being compelled to
work ID hours a day during the busy
season they must now starve be-
cause they have no work"
Exploited even more than their
white fellow-workers, Negroes must
be organized, Foster emphasized.
Negro and white workers spoke
from the same platform for the
first time at the Southern Confer
ence of the T. U. U. L., he said. The
7. U. U. L. will continue its deter
mined fight for the organization of
the millions of Negro workers, he
concluded.

tivity throughout the Illinois fields
in preparation for the sub-district

ter back to the takers, together with
a sharp refusal ITO pay dues any
longer to the company agents.
The miners of Coello voted unani-
mously to support and carry out the
decisions of the Belleville Conven-
ton after hearing Pat Toohey re-
port Sunday afternoon. Fishwick

and the meeting continued to a sue
cessful close.

ST. CHARLES, Mich, Nov. s.
A meeting of miners in st. Charles
showed the willingness of these
workers to support the National
Miners Union and to struggle both
against the Nevis machine and the
Fishwick- Harrington clique in IL
linois.
These miners under the control of
the Lewis henchmen, McKenney,
have already been sold out many
times. The speeches of P. H. Bart,
local secretary of the Trade Union
Unity League, and R. Woods were
enthusiastically received by the
workers.
All the members agreed that it
is necessary to throw away the COM
pany union charter of the U. M. W.
A. and join the fighting N. M. U.
A second meeting will be arranged
soon at which local of them. M. U.

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 4.-The
Detroit office of the Michigan State
Department of Labor and Industry
states that the number of jobless in
Detroit and vicinity is $4,000 and
that these have dependents number
ing 100000. This, the office adj
mits, does not take into account the
large number of factory workers
who are on slow starvatino because
Of only tire or four days work a
week. "The unemployment situa-
ton in Detroit at the present mo-
ment is not encouraging" said En-
NETT L. Admans, director of employ
ment for the Detroit office in a
recent speech, "and | would not adj
wise workers in distant states to
come seeking employment" But
Adams had already admitted that
workers were coming in, because of
unemployment in those distant
states. Suffering and panic faces
this enormous army of unemployed
during the winter months unless a
decided improvement is noted" he
added.

Another Woodlawn Arrest.


WOODLAND, Pa, Nov. 5.-The
Jones and Laughlin steel company
of Woodlawn, Pa, who forced the
conviction to five years prison OF
the three Woodlawn workers, Muse
lin, Resetar, and lima, on charges
of sedition, yesterday caused the ar
rest of another worker who is being
held incommunicado for distributing
circulars for a protest meeting.
1t is understood the company will
press for sedition charges against
the worker arrested yesterday. The
lstter's circulars called for a mass
hottest meeting in Woodlawn to OBJ
ject to the Supreme Courts refusal
to hear the evidence in the case of
Muselin, Resetar and lima.
The Jones and Laughlin bosses
tried to forcn the three to surrender
for Imprisonment November 2, when,
by law, they are permitted until
November 25 to appear for incar-
ceration.
The reason for the bosses maneu-
yer was to halt a number of fare

Editorial Comment
Europe's Weather
(Ncw York Tismes)

This year, as last. Europe Is suffering from exceptional
heat and drouth. In Vienna the mercury Is reported to
have touched lot. and throughout Central and Eastern
Europe lack OF rain IS doing damage. Even England has
been ~sweltering In typical American summer weather.
The precise causes OF periodic shifts in the weather are
not vet satisfactorily explained. The present hot spell
offsets the excessive cold Of last winter, and SO gives Eu-
rope a taste of the weather that Is common in the interior
OF Northern Asia and the northern parts Of America.
The difference In discomfort is due to the fact that we
and our friends In Manchuria and Siberia-are ac-
custoned to these extremes. and SO are more prepared to
meet them than are the Europeans. who have for SO long
enjoyed q more equable climate. It would seem that dur
ing the last eighteen months Central and Eastern Europe
have been subject to climatic conditions that normally
are found only further north and east.
Presumably. . year or two will witness q swing toward
normal weather conditions again-if any weather is ever
normal except in a desert. In the meantime meteor
ologists are watching the changes and studying them as
siduously with the hope Of learning more about the
method Of predicting long term weather.

Indian Origin Remains Mystery

The origin Of the Indian remains in the limbo Of mys-
terry. Dr.. Ales Hrdlicka. scientist of the Smithsonian in
~stitution, has failed to uncover the answer to the riddle
after . summer Of research work in Alaska. Assuming
that Asia might have been the homeland Of the red men
found on this continent by the discovcrers of the various
parts Of America, the Washington scientist and an cx-
petition travelled 1900 miles along the Yukon river in a
quest for evidence bearing on the origin Of the a~borigincs.
The EIrdlicka investigation was q continuation Of SIM
1lar work done In 1876 by the institution as part OF q pro-
gram started In 1859. Its purpose has been to solve the
origin Of the Eskimo and his racial kinship to the In
dian, the assumption being that this might reveal the red
men - the descendant Of tribes OF Asiatics who mi
grated across the narrow Behring strait-or possibly an
tsthmus. instead. extending In prehistoric times.
The Hrdlicka expedition uncovered old Indian villages.
