Eastern Shore Political Figure
Looms as Possibility if
RitChie WithdraWS

William S. Gordy, jr., prominent
Eastern Shore political figure,
looms today as he did in 1926
as a principal contender for the
Democratic nomination for the
governorship in 1884 should Gov.
Albert C. Ritchie decide not to
run for a fifth term.
Only his loyalty to the governor
has kept him from pulling every
political string" to get into the
Executive Mansion, it is said.
Mr.. Gordy, as a member of the
old John Walter Smith organiza-
ton, pushed the Ritehie-for-
Senator idea in 1926. He lives at
Salisbury, spent an early career
in railroad work and in 1912 be-
came cashier of the Salisbury
National Bank, a position he still
holds.
He was head of the Maryland
Bankers Association, director of
the Peninsula General Hospital
and the Salisbury Home for the
Aged.

The output for heavy industry in
the U. s. S. r. is increasing every
month, production is growing at =
speed exceeding last years speed.
Output Of iron increased from $4,000
tons daily in January and February
to $4,000 tons in September and Oc-
tober. The daily output Of iron in
November is approaching $4,000 tons.
A record increase is shown in the
mining Of iron ore and production
OF coke. The output in electric
power shows considerable advance
over last year. Machine construc-
ton is ahead of all branches Of heavy
industry.
The Soviet automobile and tractor
plants, with the best equipment in

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. 23.-The
offices Of the Packing House Workers
Industrial Union, leading the strike
of packing house workers here, were
raided by about twenty gangsters last
night, in continuation of the ter
ror against the strikers. This terror
has been whipped up by the capital
list press for several days, using the
"red scare" as pretext for the
strikebreaking attacks. The disrup-
ton of the A. F. of L. leaders and
the terror, has resulted in some work
ers being driven back to work today.
Negotiations are now going on be-
tween a committee elected by the
workers and the Oswald Hess and the
Zoller packing companies. The A.
F.. of l.. leaders are working with the
employers and the N.R.A. officials to
break the strike. Strike leaders have
been arrested and other leaders are
being sought by the police.
The sentiment for the union is very
strong, however, and the strike con-
tinues.

farmers replied that besides the de-
velopment Of cooperative collec-
tive farm herds, there would not be

for individual use Of the collective
farmers.
The collective farmers remarked
upon the tremendous growth OF de-
mands of the villages, thus increas-
ing the need for commodities.
Comrade Stain indicated a plan
for the development of light in
dustry, stating that production of
widely used articles will henceforth
double and treble. Comrade Stain
inquired on the role Of women on
the collective farms, their growth
and social activity. The women
members Of the delegation stated
that women have become a big force
in the collective farms.
In reply to the question of the
delegation, What immediate task dc
the collective farmers have?" Com
rade Stain replied that the imme-
diate task was work, honesty in col

steady Improvement Of organization
labor, has increased 146 per cent,
compared to the ten months of 1882.
Thus, the present year expressed
special features of the second Five
Year Plan mastery Of modern tech
niuue and the systematic improve
ment Of the organization OF labor.
This has resulted in various decisive
branches of industry showing con-
siderable growth. Thus, the coal in
dustry has increased its output In
the ten months of 1888 16.5 per cent,
compared with the same period OF
last year. During ten months Of this
year, 5,815, 900 tons of iron were pro-
duced, in other words, al per cent,
compared with the same period Of
last year. Steel, 5,532,000 tons or 1873
per cent excess in the ten months
of 1882. During the ten months of
1888, the output of iron ore increased
1876 per cent over the same period
last year; production of coke has in
creased 1911 per cent; october showed
an increase in the output of coke,
compared to october, 1882, by 25.4
per cent.
Fall In Production Costs
There has been a considerable fall
in the cost of production this year,
reaching ST. per cent for the third
quarter for all industry, compared
to the same period Of last year.

construction, which reduced produc-
ton costs 146 per cent during nine
months.
It is characteristic of Soviet con-
ditions that increased production in
industry and the lowering Of produc-
ton costs was steadily accompanied
by q growth in wages, reaching ST.
per cent, compared to 1882, in all in
dustry for three quarters.
100000 Join Collectives
During the nine months OF the
present year about 100000 new men,
bers Joined cne collective farms.
Thus, the percentage OF peasant
farms of the U.S..S.R. in the col
lectives has already reached IS per
cent by Sept. 1, compared with 61.5
per cent at the beginning Of the
present year.
A delegation of collective farmers

State Conservation Camps and work
in these camps during this winter at
wages of only $25 a month, it was
announced today by State Conserya-
ton Commissioner Lithgow Osborne.
Taking these men off relief and put
ting them on forced labor is in line

now being effected. The announce

be given direct to the worker but
will be turned over to his family,
instead of the relief which he former
ly received. The program goes into
effect at once and winter work, out
in the cold, is demanded of the I'M
employed.
Osborne announced that this cheap
labor supply, which gives the unem-
ployed no choice as to wages, hours
and working conditions, has already
advanced the department program by
several years" The government work
