Opposition to Create Unions
of Vast Political Power or
Drive Them All Underground

UNIVERSITY, Va, Aug. is
U.NS0 Taking definite issue
with "Big Business" generally be-
cause Of It's alleged efforts to pre-
vent employees from joining labor
unions, Donald Randall Richberg,
author and lawyer, asserted today
that such conduct presents q
standing challenge to the Consti-
tuition Of the United States" He
spoke before the Institute Of Pub
lie Affairs.
He denounced the methods en-
ployed by larger units Of Ameri-
can business" in regard to labor
movements as "undemocratic." "
He said:
Helps Living Standard
"Organized labor, with all It's
errors and weaknesses, has fur.
nished some protection, mot
only to its members and to the
masses Of unOrganized labor,
but also to the domestic market
for American goods.
Its steadfast battle to Inn.
prove the standard Of living Of
the American wageearner has
prevented our industrial leader
ship from achieving complete
success in impOverishing its Gus
toners.
"In this long struggle the
labor unions have rendered the
somewhat involuntary and un-
recognized service Of protecting
America from . class cleavage
in politics. Political economists
have frequently pointed out
that industry Is the last strong
hold Of despotic power. The
only effective challenge to this
power in America and through
out the world has come from
organized labor"
Ford Policy Benefits
Concerning the automobile in
duStry, he said:
without endorsing or disap-
proving the philosophy of Henry
Ford it must be recognized that
he has forced policies upon his
industry which are at variance
with those which rule in other
important industries and that
these policies have produced un-
paralelled social benefits"
Marvin F. Haygood, health Of
f1cer Of Knoxville, Tenn, another
speaker talked on scientific medi-
cal treatment. He deplored the
"inadequacy of preventive and
treatment facilities to many of
our people," and said:
"Only about One-fifth Of the
rural and Semi-urban pOpula-.
tiOn have as yet health pro-
tective measures that even ap-
proach q point Of sufficiency.
Neither physicians, nurses,
dentists, clinics, nor hospitals
are in easy access to a large
portion Of our population"

 CANDIDATE FOR REELECTION

To the Alaska Voter:
 I am candidate for reelection to the Alaska Senate. I stand absolute ly on my past records.
 The following is my platform:
 We must help and encourage pros pectors to go into ne wfields, and thus discover new mining camps.
 Let us work for more roads and trails in Alaska.
 We. must encourage the develop ment of the Alaska Railroad for the purpose of developing the Territory.
 We must encourage fur farming, stock raising and agricultural irdus- try.
 We must make liberal approprla- ,tions for all schools, including the Alaska College.
 [ believe that we should have smalE community canneries established on the Yukon river, and the local inhab- itants allowed to can the fine king salmon for commercial purposes, which is now being wasted.
 I believe that the Alaska Legisla--

 We need all the Alaska laws com piled into, new cole, so that the peo- ple mag know what the laws are. If elected I shall work for the en actment of laws in accordance with the above stated principles.
 Yours very truly,

Alaska Notes Gathered, From Territorial
 Exchanges.

The Department of Agriculture supply bill, signed recently by Presi- dent Hoover, carried an item of $40,- GOO for experimenting with musk oxen in Alaska, to be carried out by the United States Biological Survey. It is planned by the Survey to bring a.herd of the animals to Alaska from Greenland The experiment. will be conducted by l.. J. Palmer, in charge of the reindeer experiment station of the Biological Survey at the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines.
 This appropriation is the culmina- tion of several years effort. For the past three years the Biological Sur way has included estimates for the work in it's annual estimates to the Bureau of Budget, but until this year they were always disapproved.
 The, Biological Survey has already made some. preliminary investiga- tions into .tlle. cost of procuring the animals. It is believed with the funds [ appropriated a herd of 30 to 40 an malls can be purchased ana dplaced at OF near Fairbanks. Some action is expected tosbe.taken this year.

 The story about A. A. Johnson's family of nine silver fox pups, which
 appeared in recent issue of the Sell dovia Herald, and which suggested the right of MT. Johnson to claim the
 Alaska record for the largest litter, has drawn fire from Duke E. Stubhs, who operates the very successful Mt.
 Mckinley Fox Farm at the entrance to Mckinley National Park. Stubbs
 has written the editor of the Herald as follows:
 "Our attention was called to an item in the Herald of a record litter of silver fox pups on the ranch of A. A. Johnson. This certainly is re- markahle litter of pups.
 However, we have silver black vixen that has whelped six filters with six, seven, eight, ten and nine pups at litter, and raised all of them in every litter.
 "Dr. Earl s. Graves, former Terri torial veterinarian, made a special trip-to our ranch to see the litter of ten pups (1928), made a record of it and said he believed it was a world record for silver fox. Anyway, it is something for brother ranchers to shoot at"
 Alaska brown bear seem to have taken decided grudge against For est Service officials, says a statement issued from the headquarters of the Chugach National Forest at Cordova, which cites an attack a few, weeks ago on Trail Foreman Paul Jones and Ranger Charles H. Forward. For ward and Jones were locating trail on the southeast end of Hinchinbrook Island. They had just left the beach and rad progressed some 800 feet, followin ga grade along the sidehill. Jones was unarmed, and Forward was carryinb 3D-06 Winchester. Jones' attention wa sattracted by a movement on a cliff forty feet above them. At Jones' cry of warning For ward wheeled about just in time to see the bear leave the top of the cliff and make toward them. Fortunately, instead of launching his attack di- rectly over the, top of the cliff, MT. Bear angled around the end of it. This placed him out of Forwards sight for a second or two and gave time to prepare for the reception. The bear made the bottom of the clc, turned sharply and made directly for the men. As soon a she did so, Forward fired, hitting the beast above the eye and stopping him within 15 feet of his intende dvictims. The bear, proved to be 5OO-pounder, which is small for adults of the species. He had two old bullet wounds, one of which was through the fore leg and unhealed. The fact that the men were making considerable noise and that the wind was carrying directly to the bear, indicates that the attack was made deliberately and with mal- ice aforethought.

Capper VIII Appeal
To Hoover to Have
Board Buy Wheat

Washington, July 14.-Senator
Capper, republican, Kansas, an
nounced tonight he would call on
President Hoover Monday TO re-
quest that the federal farm board,
through the Grain Sterilization
CORPORATION, purchase 100000
bushels of wheat Immediately to
relieve wheat growers of the west.
Capper said the wheat should be
bought now by the sterilization
corporation while still in the hands
of the growers rather than wait
until it is bought by spectators.
Capper expressed concern over
the fact that wheat has declined to
around so cents a bushel, the low
est nrlce IN 10 years.
TIE Kansas senator called on
Cha'~n'"l Icgge of the farm
board about month ago with a
similar request, but the farm
board has not yet moved to re-
lieve tie situation. Capper said.

LECCE'S SCALP Is
GOAL OF KANSANS

Wichita, Kan, July IA re-
quest that congress be asked to
investigate activities of Chairman
Alexander Legge of the federal
farm board and a demand that he
be asked to resign was contained
in a telegram sent late today to
Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas
by the publishers of the Wichita
Beacon.
The telegram was the outgrowth
of militant exchanges between Max
and Louis Levand, Beacon pub
fishers and Legge during the lat
ter's campaign for reduction of
southwestern wheat production.
Legge told a Kansas audience
that the states boast of growing
the most wheat in the world" was
that of ga hog in the trough" The
Beacon publishers took affront to
the remark as an insult to the
state, demanding Legge's retire
ment. The farm board chairman
invited them to Ego to hell"
The telegram today was the
third request for Legge's retire
ment by the Levands and followed
a public letter published Saturday
in which President Hoover was
asked to examine the matter.
The Levands said they felt Leg
ge had not offered one helpful
suggestion to relieve the wheat
farmer. They asserted his sole
plan was that the wheat grower
can be relieved only by ceasing to
grow wheat, Kansas major crop.
