(By Special Correspondent
 While seining for salmon with his mother, Mrs. Annie Stepetin, in a small lake near by the village, Paul Stepetin, a young man of IT, capsized his tiny skiff and became entangled in the seine. AS he had on rubber boots and could not swim it was almosst impossible for him to help himself and none on shore were able to swim. Before help could be summoned he had been in the water too long. Elf forts at resuscitation were contin- ued for over two hours but were of little avail as life was gone. Paul was one of the brightest young native boys of the village and it was difficult for everyone to. re-. alize that his smiling good day" and jaunty swagger would greet them no more Paul leaves behind to mourn his passing, a mother, father, two sisters and a brother. The brother and sisters are all un- der 12 years of age.
 
 An epidemic of severe colds, bordering on the old enemy 'flu," spread rapidly through Unalaska during May taking it's toll in the death of tWo-J ohn Serebnekoff, an aged man of 70 and Eva Mer- culieff, aged five. Both died from pneumonia.
 The SS. Starr brought Chris Hale, principal stockholder in the Alaska Salmon Company store in Unalaska. By previous arrange ment papers transferring title of the store to the Alaska Commer- cial Company, who also operate store here, were in readiness for the necessary signatures and in a half hour after his arrival here MT. Hale had turned over his Unalas- ka interests to the Alaska Com mercial Company, who now have a clear field without any opposition in the conduct of their general merchandising, fur buying and dock operations.
 MT. Jack Martin, agent for the Alaska Comercial Company for the past five years is closing up the details of the business and will then retire from active business but will remain a resident of Un- alaska. Has plans for the future are not fully matured. MT. and Mrs. Martin are well liked in the con- and everyone is pleased to know they will remain.

.BRIDGMAN CASE
CHARGES UPHELD
Foster, Is Others in
Syndicalism Case

LANSING, Mich, Jan. 3.-The
State Supreme Court today refused
to dismiss charges of criminal syn
dicalism against 10 leaders of the
Communist Party who we're arrested
in 1922 when police raided a conven-
ton of the Party at Bridgman, Mich.
Among those involved in the case. are
william z. Foster, Communist can
didate for president in the last cleo
ton. Charles E. Ruthenberg, Sec
rotary of the Party till his death in
1927, was convicted in the case in
1923 and served a Jail sentence.
The upholding of the criminal syn
dicalisln charges means that the
state of Michigan is given weapon
which it can at any time use against
the working class by bringing the 10
leaders to trial. The International
Labor Defense, which has been
handling the case, will continue, with
the support OF workers throughout
the country, its fight to smash the
charges.
