On the other hand, the political
complications involved in the de-
bate of any such joint action in
Congress, in the British Parlia-
met and in the japanese Diet will
be endless. japanese Jingoes may
see in the scheme a dangerous
strengthening of Chinese Nation
alist power. British Jingoes will
see in it an interference with leg
islation in India. American bank
ers interested in continuing the
holding of Gold in the United
States and France will resist it.

SOVIET MINES ARE
SHORT OF LABOR

Washington - FTP - Twenty
thousand Soviet farm workers
have been called upon by the
central administration of the
Soviet collective farms to go to
work in the coal mines, accord
ing to a statement published in
the Moscow Pravda. and repub-
lished in Russian Economic
Notes, issued by the U. S. Bu-
reau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce. Not only is there no
unemployment in the Soviet coal
industry, but thare is an acute
shortage of workers.
Considering the exceptional
importance of the coal industry"
says Pravda, "the collective farm
unions and the management of
the collective farms must carry
on a campaign explaining to
their members the Importance of
helping the United Goal Indus
tries by recruiting the collective
farmers for work in the coal
mines. Farmers who agree to
work in the coal mines retain
their right to collective farm
membership. Their families
retain the same right to their
share of the next grain crop as
the families of the peasants who
remain on the collective farms"
Due to the great variety of
construction work now in pro-
gress in the Soviet republics I'M
der the five-year plan of indus
trialiZatiOn, the workers in many
of the industries have developed
a tendency such as was normal
In the United States in the piO-
neer periodic want1er of from
a familiar job to try new jobs
in distant and unfamiliar plac-
es. Since there are more jobs
than workers, many construction
projects are delayed by unex-
pected lack of workers from
week to week.
