Hall government of New York,
the chief justice of the last
court of appeals in New York
state refuses even to consider the
demand for new trial for these
leders of the jobless.
Nothing is left in a legal way
but the appeal to the U, S. Supreme
Court. But the jobless, modifying
for the greatest demonstration Of
all, the National Unemployment
Convention, July a and 5, and the
demonstrations in all industrial,
cities on that date, will have some
words to say yet.
Cardoza Denies.
Yesterday Chief Judge Benjamin
Cardoza, of the Court of Appeals
denied the application for appea
made by Foster, Minor, Amter, anC
Raymond, now serving indetermin
ate sentences up to 8 years OF
charges of unlawful assembly,
which arose out of their determined
championship of the masses of I'M
employed.
Thus the final state authority
continues the consistent policy o.
DENYING even the so-called lega
rights to these outstanding Com
munist and working class leaders.
Backs Whalen Ukase.
The court cut the hearing of thu
cases short to announce that it up
held Police Commissioner Whalel
in denying workers the right to as
semble and present grievances ant
demands. The decision handed
down yesterday by Judge Cardozs
CURLY declared, "The assembly be-
came unlawful when the defendants
melted the crowd to take part il
an unlawful parade after the warn
ing by the police that the parade
would be broken up"
Why was the parade unlawful
Because Whalen said so? What Of
the alleged constitutional RICH
which the law says can never b.
abrogated?
Mass Protest.
The only hope now as before j:
for all workers to rally in grea
masses to demand the liberation Of

be realized only by the pressure the
working class exerts to force th'
authorities by its mass protest.
Petitions and letters and tele
grams should be poured into tht
Parole Board offices from now or
in such numbers that the cases Of
Foster, Minor, Amter and Raymond
become a major issue and their re-
lease is fixed for an early date.
Work for the release of the lead
ers of the unemployed. Every
workers organization and ever!
individual must add his voice to this

Industrial Union.
The meeting went on for an hour,
attended by over thousand work
ers, when two police came to stop
it, but they were simply brushed
aside by the crowd. Then patrol
wagon came with seven police, but
they were forced to retire with
drawn guns and blackjacks, due to
the militancy of the workers. A
Negro longshoreman disarmed one
cop by holding his arm in ham
merlock. The meeting went on
with crowd swollen to 1000.
Unable to cope with the situation,
the police sent in a riot call, and
five patrol wagons of police, about
fifteen armored motorcycles with
tear bombs and machine guns and
marine detachment on a
truck finally broke up the meeting
after it went on for over an hour,
beating up the workers and arrest

speakers.
All are held under $500 bail each.

Anna Burlak, released on bail from
atlanta, Georgia, under charges
with five other workers of "insur-
ection" for organizing the workers

WrangeN Editor Dies In Seattle Hospital

James w. Pritchett, owner and editor of the Wrangell Sentinel, died in the Mason Clinic, Sea- tile, last Sunday. MT Pritchett's death was not unexpected by those who knew him and had seen him just before he was re- moved to the Seattle hospital for treatment. He had been to New York last year for treat ment and returned considerably improved but with instructions from his doctors not to do any work for a year The smell of printers ink and the urge of the game took him back into har- ness the very day he returned to Wrangell. Early in August he was taken quite ill and remov- ed to the Wrangell General Hos pital. About two weeks ago his condition became so serious that Dr. Edwards, in attendance, urged that the case be removed to Seattle for the specialized skill and treatment. He was in Seattle but about a week when word was received in Wrangell of his death. His widow, Mrs Pritchett, immediately left for Seattle, leaving Dick Suratt in charge of the office.
 MT. Pritchett is survived by g
 sister in Honolulu and his wi dow in Wrangell. He was-a mem
 Der of the Masonic and Moose Lodges of Wrangell and has g host of friends who mourn hi! loss and who extend their sin l cere sympathy to Mrs. Pritchett lin her hour of bereavement.

candidates are all pledged to work toward that goal, and we are confident it can be achieved
 f Alaskans will support us.
 We are NOT making any fight on Federal bureaus be- cause We recognize they ARE essential under the present sys- tenn of Govrnment. But we are in earnest in proclaiming the right of Alaskans to administer their game, fur, fisheries and other natural resources which are now under control and di- Ircction of Federal authority and sincere in our purpose to attain that right without fur ther delay.
 Need Intelligent Electorate
 Voters, inorder to understand issues and realize their import, to weigh the candidates and parties they represent, must be capable of studying those is sues, to read about them in the daily press, to discuss them with their fellows. An electorate that cannot be dominated by the will of one or two leaders, that votes as a unit oftimes without being able to read the name of the candidates for whom it votes and without knowledge of the existence o fthe office at stake, is a very real menace to self government
 This fact has been quite gen. orally recognized in Southeast Alaska for severel years. For ward lOOK1ng leaders or DOCn Democratic and Republican parties have recognized that danger and have in the past CO., operated in an effort to suppress it. In this movement they have had the hearty support of a great many Alaskans who have aided in the work without thot of party lines.

 Statement


 Issues Vigorous Campaign
 Statement From Juneau Empire
 Hope of the First Division ci- tizenry desiring liberation from continued political domination by the organized Indian element rests solely on the Democratic party, in the opinion of J. J. Connors, National Committee man for Alaska of that Organi- ZatiOn. In a statement issued today, (Aug. 29th) he pointed to the recently formed alliance of Republican candidates as the basis of his contention.
 The issue, he declared, is cleancut. "The alliance of Re- publican candidates solely for the sake of election" if that be conceded, leaves only Demo cratic candidates to speak for The people who rallied around Attorney General John Rust gard and his ticket-on which were c. T. Gardner and Walter P. Scott-in the April primary election" he said.
 Outlines Territorial Campaign
 MT. Connor's comment on the situation in the First Division was part of a general outline of the Democratic campaign program for the entire Terri tory. It indicated a vigorous drive for votes throughout the Territory for all offices for which there is a party candi- date.
 Home Rule for Alaska will be tie keynote of the general cam paign. Tn it's several conven- tions from time to time, Demo- crasy in Alaska has spoken in terms demanding chat the Federal Government extend to the people of this Ter ritory the same rights, privileges and responsibilities of governing themselves and administering their resources as was possessed by every other American terri tory preceding this one.

One Out of 300
 Buried Alive

With official announcement that an average of one person in every 500 buried is inferred alive in Europe, a group of thirty-f1ve deputies, nearly all of them physicians or surgeons, have submitted a project of law to the government requiring a verified ton of decease by a medico- scientific proof before a permit fer inhumation is delivered.
 The parliamentary group re- quests the cabinet to consult the Academy of Medicine and the A. Cademy of Sciences to aid in adopting the surest means to ascertain that a person is dead.
 pr. DervierlX of the Medico-Le- gal Institute, in an itervieW, as serted that statistics reveal that two per thousand are buried alive in most advanced continental countries and that in certain OtherS-Balkan States for eX- ample e-the percentage probably runs higher. The figure includes newly born infants.
 Miserly Peasants.
 Most cases occur in the provin- ceS and are due to the miser-like attitude of peasants who refuse to call a doctor to pronounce a patient dead When a patient eX- pires, or seems to his relatives or friends rush to the doctor who has been attending him-or her and tell him there is no neces- sity for making another call that the patient has expired.
 The best method of insuring that death has arrived" said Dr. Dervieux, "and the process which will be adopted doubtless, is an injection of fourdesceine. A small dose of this is not deadly, | and will not kill a patient who is not dead"
 Dr. Dervieux asserted that burning the soles of the feet has been suggested as test. But a l person could die from the eff fects," objected the doctor.

Hope of First Division
 Lies m Democrats

in it's primary elections for the past six years, last April MT Gardner and MT. Scott, running on the Rustgard ticket, and supported by thousands of vot- CTS sincerely disturbed the threat Of mass voting to the vel fare and progress of Alaska suc- ceeded in breaking through the barrier. Gardner defeated w. A. Steel, and Scott beat Pete Som mer, both candidates of the h. dian faction. It was an achiev- ment of note, one in which Re- publican and Democrat alike re- jOiced, since it seemed to sound the note of final downfall to mass voting and political dom finance in this Division.
 Since the slate on which these two candidates made the ace made the issue plain, the victory was distinctly theirs and the prestige of the Indian faction suffered severely.
 Throw Away Fruits
 Nov for the sake of the very mass vote they formerly de- nounced Messrs Scott and Gard Ter have thrown away the fruit of their victory. Not only that but they are openly endeavoring 10 lead their primary supporters into an alliance with the Indian phalanX which they loudly pro- claimed to be a menace a few short months ago.
 There has been no change in the attitude of the Indian fac  tion and it's leaders since the election. The issues so far as it is concerned, have not and their leaders con- tinue to be dominant, Every for which Gardner and Scott contended and upon which they exhorted for votes last april has yet to be achieved. They cannot achieve them un- der the banner of w. L. Paul and his Indian organization. In the chase of the Indian block vote, they have turned their
