Worker Killed Seeking
Ice on Freight Train
(By a Worker CORRESPONDENT

my q WORKER correspondent
DETROIT, Mich.-I witnessed a
railroad accident a few days ago on
the Michigan Central Railroad.
Every morning, groups Of workers
gather around the ice box cars to
get piece of ice, because they have
no money to pay for ice. One morn
ing, when workers, including my
father and me, were collecting ice, an
engine connected with the cars with
such a bang that five workers fell
off, and one fell under a car, getting
both legs cut off. While the worker
was under the car groaning, the
breakman calmly passed by and paid
no attention to his moaning, which
could be heard plainly. The worker
died from loss of blood.

is Progress The Goal Of Civilization?

community benefit, don't you?"
 He answered, "Yes."
 "Then" we said, "you are nothing but a communist"
 But why quarrel with a word 'bolshevist,' majority rule; communist" the greatest good for the greatest number; "so- cialism" the effort of society to protect it's members from ex- ploitation.
 The people of Alaska must be allowed to feed themselves.
 We conclude our editorial by saying simply that the f1shtrap is not the cheapest way of catch ing fish and those who base their argument. on "cheapness" must advocate the use of "weirs in the fishstreams themselves" be- cause this form is the very cheapest-one weir manned by two persons to each stream would guarantee the escapement and economy and would replace some four hundred traps costing about $2,000,000 employing about coo men with one hundred weirs or less and employing 200 men.
 MT. Edwards second reason is more quickly answered. en- tire Bristol Bay pack of about 100000 cases is from movable gear (seines and gillnets); like wise the 1,500,O0O cases from British Columbia. The reports that seine-caught fish (movable gear) are inferior is false. The truth is that whenever fish is condemned, the packer excuses himself by blaming the seine when more often it is trap caught fish.
The Alaska fisherman., 1932-08-15

Not long ago, we were talking With MT. Edwards of trapwire fame, and he told us that we were standing in the way of pro- gress' when we opposed the fish, tap. He went on to say that all history shows that nobody could stand in the way of progress, c: efficiency. The handworkers of Liverpool, the cotton workers of the south, the handprinters be- fore the linotype, and many others only proved this point, he said. So he argued that the fish trap justified itself because CD it produced the cheapest caught fish; CD it provided the most sanitary.
 We disagree with MT. Edwards first because Progress is not the goal of society; rather the goal is the contentment of each mem Der of society. If machines bring this about, we are for the machine; but if the machine does not, then we are against them. Society has something to answer for when it permits a machine in these days to dis charge nine men out of ten without providing for the nine. Unless these nine can readjust themselves, somebody has to feed and cloth them however poorly. A simple electrical device for closing the doors of the New York subways threw 5000 men Out of employment. Does MT. Edwards Cor you) have the right to shut his eyes to the needs cf these men and their families :.1 the name of progress and let them starve or resort to the Rcd Cross or petty stealing?
 We finally pinned MT. Edwards down by making him admit that he was a communist for he said, T believe in cooperation of all

Voters before long must choose between candidates of two parties.
 'I will vote for the man" some say.
 This is dangerous doctrine be- cause the two parties this year have directing minds.
 The situation among the Re- publicans may be as bad as you think with Wickersham, Rust gard, Keller heading the ticket, and pulling in different direc- tons, and we must admit that Governor George Parks does net stand for the advancement of the people of Alaska, and that Judge Harding is famous for nothing except his love for his family, and yet
