Farmers Strike
MURRAY PROMISES

Farmers of twenty counties in
Georgia have called a strike on
milk shipments into Atlanta. In
order to break the strike for the
milk trust Mayor James L. Key
has offered to "arbitrate." Every
such case of arbitration" is a sell
out of the farmers by an "im-'
perial" agent of the milk trust.
Another strike breaking move
was the issuance of temporary in
junction by a federal court at Ma
con, to prevent interference with
milk trucks entering Atlanta.
The strike was called by the
Georgia Milk Producers Federation
Inc. The gross price now paid by
the milk distributors to the farm
ers is around IA cents a gallon out
of which the farmers have to pay
transportation and icing costs. The
price asked by the federation
20.6 cents gallon for gr5
raw milk delivered in Altar
the producers who would pay
charges.
STRIKE MOVE IN NEW "
Dairy farmers around Aaams
Center, New York, have threaten
ed to strike against the United
Milk Products if the prices which
they get are not increased. A
telegram to this effect was sent
to the president of the corporation
at Cleveland, Ohio, by a committee
representing $50 farmers.
George N. Allen, secretary of
the emergency committee orga-
nized by the Dairymen's League,
stated that 1--WE are trying to do
everything we can to prevent a
strike but the farmers are des-
perate."
Farmers around Omaha are re-
newing their strike activity. The
Farmers Holiday Association of
Douglas county is going to hold q
mass meeting in the near future to
increase the membership and to
strengthen the organization.
The "leaders" of the Holiday
Association in Nebraska are insist
ing that the renewed activity
should not include picketing but
should consist solely of a "cam'
paign of education"

ATTACK PICKETS

At Shevlin, Con Paui>on, nerch-
ant, sold box of rotten fruit TO a
bunch of scabs of Shevlin. who
used a truck belonging to a man
by the name Of Smith and hurled
the fruit at the pislze.s. This
bunch also started the rumOr that
the 'pickets were scared of the
road.
The truth is that this bunch Of
militant farmers forced the trucks
off of Highway No. s. The pick
cts were then ca.iGo 81 in order
to organize sne picket;ng On every
road and highway. This group Of
militant pickets showed what can
be done by mass action Join the
United Farmers League.

COUNTY AGENT STRIKE
sTEADER"

Colfax county, Nebraska, farm
ers formed a strike organization
on Monday, September 10 at a
meeting held near Schuyler. The
strike is to prevent all non-perish-
able products from reaching the
markets. The county agent is the
secretary-treasurer of the organi-
cation, making possible a traitor
GUS sell out at once.
In Toledo a dairy company has
obtained an injunction against
picketing, public demonstrations,
and utterances by the militant
farmers who are picketing thru
out the Toledo area. They are
maintaining their picketing despite
the injunction.
In order to continue to fool the
farmers of his state, Governor
Murray of Oklahoma, said last
week, "Ill be glad to join the
farmers in any move for better
prices AS LONG AS IT'S WITH
IN THE LAW"
Murray thinks the farmers should
use, only means within the claw"
even if they are driven from their
homes thru foreclosure and sale
for taxes, and if their children go
ragged and miserable.
MURRAY IN HIS TRUE
ROLE
"BUT TLL BE EQUALLY
QUICK TO UPHOLD THE LAW
AND SEE THAT ANY MAN
WHO WANTS TO SELL HIS
PRODUCTS HAS THE OPPOR-
TUNITY," added this faker. He,
too, like the sheriffs of Iowa, and
Nebraska is willing to use the
militia against militant picketing.
for that is what his speech means.
In Iowa picbets have been dubbed
under the same excuse that MUIR
Tray uses, so the rich farmers and
truckers have chance to scab.
Three truckloads of milk were
stopped near Vincennes, Indiana,
on Monday, September 10, by pick-
cts representing the Wabash Val
ley Milk Producers Association and
the contents were dumped. The
association has threatened to de-
lclare a strike against local dairy

DO NOT RECOGNIZE FLA
LEADERS

This group of pickets does not
recognize the leadership of the
Farmers Holiday Association who
would protect the interests of big
business as they showed IN the
Iowa milk strike.
The farmers in this locality de-
pend mainly on butterfat, eggs,
vegetables, and such. The local
merchants buy their stuff from
big wholesalers who come into the
county with their big trucks,
There is, therefore, no market for
the products of the farmers here,
and the farmers are losing their
homes.
The pickets met with the bitter
est attack from the businessmen OF
both Bagley and Shevlin. The
Beltrami county agent Beach said
in the Bemidji Pioneer that the
farmers in these counties have
nothing to sell. In that case the
salary of the county agent is 9
matter of waste as we understand
the county pays him to teach the
farmers how to increase produc-
ton. The United Farmers League
of Clearwater county has taken
militant stand against continuing
to pay the county agent and de
mands that this enemy of the
farmers be fired.

Minnesota has been regarded as one of the staunchest of RepIbli : can states on the basis of a record which shows but one break in 50 years. In 1912 Minnesota gave its votes to Theodore Roosevelt, Pro- gressive.
 The rise of the Farmer Labor Party in recent years has injected a new element into the state poli- ticsl situation, and observers this year are attempting to weigh its influence in the national election.

 He made a fractional gain in the tctal vote but not enough to alarm the Democratic campaign leaders. Last weeks report gave him S7.1e per cent of the total and Roosevelt got 5630. The current report gives the President 37.33 and Roosevelt 5S.i9 per cent,
 The New York Governor held his own in New York State and in the Presidents home State, Cali- forn.a. He also kept his lead in Nsw Ycrk, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Illinois and the af1d- cultural belt.

came to Ketchikan for weeks scJourn, then proceeded here by easy stages.
 But If he had been ip Congress on that date, he could have pre- vented the passoge of the bill even though it had been backed by the entire Hoover administration and all of the armed forces of the na- ton, He had lots more chances or success than the Bonus Expe- ditionary Force had against the Hoover eviction mandate and ran no danger at all. e
 The measure came up on the Consent Calendar of the House. Any member of the House, includ- ing Aaska's Delegate, by the mere lnterposition of objection was priv ileged to prevent consideration of the bill when it came up for fi- nal action. Inasmuch as it was late in the session, there was no possibility of enacting the meas ure into law except by unanimous consent. Thus the Delegates ob- 1ection which was never made and couldn't have been since lie wasn't near the scene, could have defeat ed the Democratic majority, the President and the two Cabinet of- ficers mentioned. .
 The reporter regretfully admits changing Pete Olsen's name to An- drew but denies any intent to ih- lllre the reputation of Delegate Wickersharn thereby. The reporter didn't say Wickershalh told the Committee that Olsen would con- trol the Alaska Legislature if it were given the power to legislate for the fisheries i1idustry-Sena ter Dimond charged him with do- ing that and the Delegates expla- nation that he meant Congress and not the Legislature seems to bs as pointless as his statements about the transfer of the Alaska Read Commission were inaccurate and misleading.

POLITICAL TIDE RIPS

fer Of the Alaska Road Cofnmis- sion, the Delegate made enough mis statements of fact to more than eytn the score
 First, he said the War Depart r11ent Initiated the movement. That was not true. The Delegate had in his possession a report from the Senate Committee handling the bill that contained correspondence showing the Interior Department was the moving force that Sec rftary of War Patrick J. Hurley, never did officially approve it, but merely wrote to say the War De- pertinent had no objections to it and to suggest certain alterations in the proposed bill to make it workable.
 Next, he said the bill that be- came a law and brought about the transfer was introduced by Repre- sentative Edward T. Taylor of Colorado. Again that was twist ing of the facts. Mir. Taylor did introduce in the House such a bill. But 1t never did pass the House, despite Judge Wickershams posi-. ,tive assertion that he was in Con- gress when it was passed and sent to the Senate.
 Heres what really did happen, and if Judge Wickersham doesn't krlow-&, then he neglected his du- ties in Washington more than Sen- ator Dimond has charged. Sena- tor Howell in the Senate and MT. Taylor in the House introduced identical bills. The Senate acted on the Howell bill promptly, pass Ing it and sending it to the House. The latter body substituted it for the Taylor. measure, which it laid on the table, and passed the How ell bill. W
 The Delegate further said he was uaere when the Taylor bill was passed and he couldn't have stop ped it, because the entire Demo- cratic majority was behind it and it was Supported by the Secretaries pf War and Interior and President Hoover.
 Judge Wickersflaln wasn't in a Thousand miles. when the Howell bill passed tie House on June 27. He left Washington about June IA tc attend the Republican conven- ton dh Chicago, opening On June IS. He proceeded from there to Seattle, spent a few days, and

A reporter for The Empire, who covered Senator Dlmond's speech at the Coliseum theatre last week, was mildly scolded by Delegate wicketsham in the latter's address at the Capitol a few days later. The reported erred in crediting the Delegate with a bill tle was, in fact, opposing, and made a mistake in the name of a witness before g Congressional committee. The witnesses's name was Pete Olsen and the reporter got ft Andrew Olsen. e m these mistakes the Delegate read a sinister motive and rather more than hin6ed that the reporter had deliberately twisted Senator D.mond's. remarks in order to dis credit the Delegate. sa',;f

 Reporters, as everyone Knows, ought not. to make mistakes. Peo- r1e involved never like it and the reporters bosses like 1t even less. f11 fact they. the bosses, have even tlore decided opinions on the subject than Judge Wickersham who has TO boss to ''curly him off" when lie errs. f
 And perhaps that's just as well, ctherwiee the Delegate would be iii fot | thorough going over for several inaccuracies, to put 1t mild ly again, that crept into his speech here last Friday.
 A case in point, as the legal profession has it, was his state- mont that Senator Dimond, "in 1913,' as member of the Alaska Senate voted for a resolution ask ing for the passage of bill by Congress that was exactly identical with the IteSent Alaska Game Law. The Delegate reiterated in was lin 1918"
 Senator bim0nd served his first terfii in fhe Aiaska Senate in 1923. therefore, he couldn't possibly have d0ne iii 1878 what Wickersham said he did. The Be BeiSgate aid a friend told him abosit tait matter and he checked up and found 1t was true. Of course, a discfepency of 10 years is a '4rivial" matter. The Delegate, however, cited two etrUrts by The Empires political reporter which leaves the former, iiaonentarily, one up. Just for the moment, though.

HAL|BUT BOAT BAT TERED BY STORM ON GULF
Lysekill Puts Into Hoonah for Repairs and Goes
 to Prince Rupert

After having narrow escaped de- struction in the Gulf of Alaska, the halibut motorship Lysekil, Capt. > Vail, in badly battered condi- ton put into Hoonah, according to advices from there, and after stay of few days making repairs pro- ceeded to her home port, Prince Rupert, B. c. She had i5,0OO pounds of iced halibut in her hold, and the fish, serving as ballast, prevented the craft from going to the bottom.
 Struck by Mountainous Sea a
 While battling a terrific storm, the Lysekil, at 1:3O o'clock in the morning of October 2l, was struck by a mountainous sea that smashed in the pilot house, swept away everything else fast and loose on deck, including gear and dor.es, and filled the engine room with water, putting the machinery out of commission.
 Fortunately the storm subsided immediately afterwards. The vessel lay helpless for hours. Finally the crew pumped the water from the engine room and got the engine started. The sea was still rough. and the craft made for shelter under Cape. St. Elias.
 Tahoma Is Spoken
 The motorship Tahoma was spok- en. She lent the disabled craft a dory and gave material for tenn porary repairs.
 I on reaching Hoonah, the Lysekil effected sufficient repairs to enable her to go to Prince Rupert. She departed for Rupert the evening of October 25.
