RUSSIAN WHITE
GUARDS DRIVE
ALASKA MINERS
Military Re gime in
Gold Mine; Men
TerrOriZed

JUNEAU Alaska. - would call
work in the Alaska Juneau Gold
Mines underground war, because this
mine is operated like a military re-
ginle. Many hundreds of Russian
White Guards came during the last
ten years. Many are foremen and
they bulldoze and drive the workers
here just as they drove the Russian
workers during the Cars time.
The mine operates on three shifts,
each one working underground full
eight hours at a stretch without rest,
and no time out for lunch.
The workers are way behind the
class conscious workers. They don't
even ask to have road built. They
have to walk half a mile up a 90
degree slope to get to the mine. This
results in many accidents, especially
in winter.
There are a few Party members in
this mine, all working very secretly,
because there are many stoolpigeons
in this mine. I don't know how to
organize these workers. Some are
not interested. Some are very good
but they mistrust, they are too scar
ed of the bosses.
Once in a while the mine bosses
collect money from the miners for
the unemployed. They get thous-
ands of dollars and give it to the
Salvation Army. But the Salvation
don't give any help to the Juneau
poor people. Anytime the men ask
for something to eat, the Salvation
tells them to CHOP wood and then
we will give you food" But this
collection money is used only for
graft and to feed the husky Saliva
ton gang.
-Longview.
Editors Note:-The demand for a
road to the mine seems in this case
a very good rallying point around
which the workers might be ap-
preached. The local Party organiza-
ton should give assistance to the
few Party members in the mine, to
food the place with a good leaflet
on Just this immediate demand of
a road. This might break the ice
to get a workers committee organ
lied secretly which will eventually
develop into union organization.

CONGRESS PLANS
TO CUT ACREAGE
Propose Less Food and
Higher Prices

bushel, on cotton five cents a pound,
on tobacco four cents pound, on
hogs two cents pound.
These taxes would fall on the
miller, for wheat, on the tobacco
factory, on the spinning company
for cotton, on the packer for hogs
to be passed on to the masses in
the form of increased prices.
Once paid, the fund is established
and there isn't any more money. If
the miller and spinning &C 19ny can
cut the price of farm prod they
will pay to zero, their tax pays all
the farmer gets. And they will Ger
tainly try to cut it pretty low. There
is no "cone back" at least until the
next year, if then.
Cutting Production.
But there is another feature, and
a most dangerous one to worker and
farmer. No farmer will be paid the
differentiaI provided for in the bill,
unless he can show that he has cut
his production one fifth. He has to
show that in 1888 he planted one
fifth less acreage or produced one
fifth less pounds of live pork. This
provision for cutting down the
amount of food in existence is flung
in the face of 100000 unemployed
workers, many of them hungry, and
listening daily to the c-..'es for food
of their hungry children. There
higher prices and less quantity OF
food provisions are the United
States governments answer, so far,
to the demands of another 16,000,-
600 part time, wage cut, workers for
the right to live.
The united leadership of the farm
organizations, except for the United
Farmers League, proposed this cut
ting of production apply to 1888; the
original draft of the Jones bill set
ting it for 1884.
What Farmers Say.
The United Farmers League whole
heartedly supported the National
Farmers Conference, held in Wash
ington. Dec. 7 TO 10, with nearly 300
delegates from over 30 states. The
conference stated enphatically in its
demands handed to congress:
ON the face of social calamity
Farm Leaders and politicians
dare to talk of Surplus; dare to
base legislation on theory of re-
duction of acreage that will fit the
present starvation markets. While
millions of our population are I'M
derrorished through loss of their
purchasing power, the acceptance
of the surplus theory is a crime
against society"
The National Farm conference de-
manded relief to the farmers, and
moratorium on farm debts, mortgage
payments and on taxes.
The United Farmers League, In
united front with the rank and file
of the various other farm organiza-
tions, unites also with the city I'M
employed and city workers to fight
for higher prices to the farmers,
and lower prices for the consumers
of farm products.

FINE RED T. U. VICTORY IN
CZECH FACTORY

PRAGUE.-T h factory council
election in the well-known textile
works Loew-Beer in Zwittau near
Brunn brought fine victory for the
list of the revolutionary textile work
ers union which received 1913 woes
and seats as compared with 274
votes and 4 seats at the election in
1881. The list of the reformist trade
union received 178 votes as against
294 votes at the last election This
election is typical of almost all the
factory council elections which have
taken place recently. The revolu-
tionary trade union movement is in
creasing its influence over the work
ers in the factory whilst the influ-
ence of the reformiSt unions is cor
respondingly decreasing.

price REDUCTION CAMPAIGN
IN POLAND

WARSAW.-The Polish bourgeois
press reports that the government Is
engaged in drawing up a new price
reduction campaign" This an
nouncement contains another attack
on the masses, because it is in effect
nothing but the preliminary to a
new wage-cutting campaign. Up to
the present all "price-cutting
schemes have brought into effect
new wage-cuts whereby the price
reduction campaign has failed whilst
the wage cutting has been signally
successful.

It has constantly carried on the fight
to mobilize the workers in the struggle for
better living conditions, against wage cuts,
for unemployment insurance and for the
support of the Hunger March.
1t fights against the oppression Of the
foreign-born workers, against deporta-
tions, for equal rights OF the Negro mas
