RUSSIA ACTS ID SPEED UP OUTPUT
 IF YELLOW ME TAI

LONDON, Aug, 10. (P)-The gold
 production of Russia is regarded by the Soviet authorities as the most important, for the time being. for the maintenance of the foreign trade balance, and every endeavor IS made to increase the output. Ac- jcordlng to official information, the small individual producers produce the largest proportion of the Rus sian gold production. Nevertheless.
 the technical progress made in gold production in Russia, says the of flclal report, is not generally real iZed.
 Tn the gold and platinum indus tries together about 50 dredges are employed; four new dredges are in the course of being assembled, and 28 others are being constructed in a Leningrad factory. The principal of the gold now are the AL dan district and the eastern (Sibe- ria) districts. It is the official hope to increase the production by 50 to 100 percent. An order of the Soviet government places the gold and platinum mining industries under a single organization known as the "Sojussoloto".

 The issue was on one of the less controversial of many amendments which required imported articles be marked in' a reasonable and conspicuous place of the country of their origin. This was adopted by vote of 40 to 32.
 The decision came on reconsid eration of previous vote reject ing the change by 38 to 28 in which eight Republicans joined the Demo- crats in opposition to Senator Reed who brought about the reconsidera- tion by declaring that many Sen- ators did not know what they were voting for on the first ballot.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-Represen- tative Fiorello H. LaGuardia. desig- mated by the Republican organiSa- tion as it's party candidate for Mayor, overwhelming defeated Will liam M. Bennett in the Republican primary yesterday Bennett, who ran for Mayor as the Republican nominee once before, made cam paign against LaGuardia as a dry. LaGuardia now becomes the op- ponent of Mayor James J..'Walker who was nominated by the Demo- crats without opposition for re- election. The vote in the primary election was light in both Demo- cratic and Republican parties, being about 20 per cent of the normal vote.
 LaGuardia Hits Churches
 Candidate LaGuardia, paying his respects to church influences that were used against him and in favor of Candidate Bennett, said: "The result is not surprising, It indicates one thing very plainly: that Cannon Chase had better keep out of politics" This referred to the admission of Bishop Cannon William s. Chase of Christ Episco- pal Church that he Fan Bennett's campaign.
 In every instance the candidates designated by the Democratic and Republican organizations were nom- mated by decisive majorities at the primary election. The Republican ticket contains the names of enough Democrats to enable its independ- ent supporters to refer to it as a fusion ticket.
 Tammany leaders profess confi- dence that. the Democrats will gain another sweeping victory in Mo- vember. On the other hand, La Guardia, Coudert and other candi- dates on the Republican ticket have equal confidence that they will be victorious.

Hundreds Gather to Watch Governor Launch Work

AS the Gov ernor drove the spade deeply into the soil and brought it out filled with black earth, movie and still cameras clicked.
 When he had deposited the dirt in a small pottery vessel, the crowd gave three rounds of cheers, led by H. G. Walmsley, Vice-President of the Chamber of Commerce.
 Ceremony Was Brief
 The ceremony was brief and with out any speeches. It took not more than two or three minutes to formally set in motion the con- struction of Alaska ,000-capitol, the initial appropriation for which was made nineteen years ago. With out formality of speech and with just a few of the most elementary motions, the project was launched
 With officials, and members of the Executive Committee of the Chamber of Commerce and others grouped around, and surrounded by a closely packed ring of school pu- pills of all ages, J. c. Mcbride Custodian of the Grounds, handed to the Governor brand new shovel. Gov. Parks took it into his hands and, resting the blade on the ground, with his foot drove it into the earth until the blade was buried.
 He drew it out with a scooping motion, filled with Bod which promptly tumbled off He immed- lately filled the space again with loose earth from the hole and de- posted it in a small earthen jar The dirt was turned over to MT Mcbride who plans to plant a tree in it and, when it reaches suitable size, to transplant is to the capitol grounds.

PORTLAND. Ore, Sept. 18.- Stevenson, a little town northeast of here on the Columbia River, is the center of the forest fire activity in the Pacific Northwest.
 Defeated on two other fronts, at Yacolt and Estacada, the sweeping flames swung around, advancing on Stevenson on three sides, north, cast and west.
 The town is isolated, the fires having burned out all communica- tion lines.
 All highways are blocked and aid is unable to reach the 800 inhabi- tantS.
 Scores of small fires are reported in the vicinity, the nearest about a mile from the town.
 Out of Danger
 Yacolt is out .dnger but fleet of flat cars Is held in readi- ness to move the population should emergency arise.
 Estacada residents have settled down to watchful waiting.
 The situation in Ventura County, California, where 25.000 acres have been swept by flames. is reported good. Santa Paula, at the corner of the triangular burned area, is still giving trouble but on the other fronts the fight against the flames, which caused $3,O00,o00 damage, is reported quiet. Anxiety about the rich Ventura Oil Fields is relieved.

 Before the meeting was ad- journed a few minutes later all ex- cept two of the directors, on one pretext or another, had left the board room long enough to use the telephone.
