Anchorage reports that Seward had two inches of new snow on the ground Friday morning and that snow was continuing to fall. How ever, Sourdough Bill, of the extra special Gateway Investigating de- partment, has been Snooping around and fails to see where they get all this snow and he says the Seward proper, not including the suburbs, has enjoyed but spattering of snow and this soon disappeared. Meanwhile, Seward residents are out cultivating their bananaless plantations, and orangeless groves in a climate just about. as mild as that of California. It appears that Interior Alaska and California are the ones who are having the snow and wintry weather this year.

FASCIST OFFICER
QUITS His PARTY
It Serves Capitalism;
Collisions in Germany
Gable By Innrecorr.l J

BERLIN, March 20.-The Reichs-
wehr Republican army officer
Scheringer, sentenced to the fortress
as a result of the Leipzig trial OF
the Ulm fascist officers, issued a dec
laration from prison admitting his
errors and accusing the fascist party
Of serving capitalism against the
masses. Scheringer made appIica-
ton to join the Communist Party
The remaining officers, including the
group still serving a jail term, are
sympathetic to Scheringer's action
and will probably solidarize.
This morning fierce collisions took
place before the NeukoeIn prison be-
tween Communist demonstrators
and police. The police used their
clubs freely.
Another collision took place near
Magdeburg yesterday evening be-
tween fascists and Communists. Six
fascists were injured. The police ar
rested 81 Communists.
Further clashes occurred in Schoe-
berg last night. Police fired shots
into the crowd. Several Communists
were arrested.
The police confiscated the theatre
props of a Communist group, the
Red Blouses."

lists voted with the Communists
against the voting of funds for war

Dissension in the socialist fraction
almost resulted in blows in the

cialists.
The socialist leader, Wells, read a
declaration, according to which the
socialists intend to support the Brue-
ming government Wnreservedly to

NEW YORK.-The Fancy Leather
Goods Union is on the eve of negO-
tiations for a new agreement with
the bosses. At such time it is of
utmost Importance to have the
ranks of the workers in the trade
united. Do the leaders of our ad-
ministration understand this? The
answer Is NO. To prove this,
will refer to an article written by
M. Blum, member of the Joint
Council, In the January February
issue of the International Pocket
book Worker. The article is en-
titled "The Situation In the Cut
ters Local"
In his article, M. Blum, the Joint
Council member, does not point
out the real evils prevailing in the
cutters section.
He tries, instead of that, to de-
develop a theory that the chop
pers cannot cut q job as good as
the cutters do. Mr.. Blum, in his
article, takes objection to the par
ceiling out of the work between the
cutted and chopper, as if the chop
pers were not the same union men
as well as the cutters, as if they
were not entitled to make a live
ihood.
The entire tone of his article is
one which degrades the choppers.
He wants to make us believe that
a cutter is superior being and
the chopper of no account. MIR.
