WESTWARD WOOL
 PRODUCTION ON 4
 STEADY INCREASE
GRAZING PROBLEM IS EAST OF PROBLEMS ON CHER
 NOFSKI ISLAND

Alaska is noted for her gold and fisheries but it is not a remote possibility that the geographies of the year 1875 will state that the Northland is one of the nations leading wool-producing states"
 One of the largest individual shipments of wool ever to have been received in Portland by the Pacific Wool Growers cooperative, 100000 pounds, came from Alaska. This shipment was made up from herds Sheared on Unimak and Chernofski islands.
 Robert Kranich is the foreman on Chernofski Island for the Aleu- tian Livestock Company. Durin g the several years that he has been in charge of sheep raising there the sheep have shown splendid re- productive qualities and an unus- ually fine grade of wool is ob- tained from them. The wool is of a higher grade and texture than that of the States, it is said, be- cause of the excellent climatic conditions, excellent forage al Id lack of burrS, brush, etc.
 The grazing problem, often so hard to solve in the States, is the last and least considered problem on ChernofiSki. The countless acres of ever green, luscious and virgin grass solve the grazing problem. The grass often grows so high that sheepherders, riding range, say the grass comes up to the flank of their horses. Sheep dogs often can not be seen because of the grass and tn r whereabouts can only be determined by the rustling of the grass.
 An idea of the extent of the sheep ranching on Chernofski Is- land can be gained when it is learned that it takes nearly week to ride the Summer and Winter ranges. The vast, unfenced ranges make the sheep roundups reSem- ble those of the early days in the States" it is said.
 Shearing is done by power-clip- perS and during the Shearing sea- son four or five men often shear 80 or 90 wethers apiece in day.
 In writing the Gateway, a mem Der of the "sheepherders' on Cher nofski I la d says that in the month of July virtually the whole island of Chernofski is in bloom, and when on the range, a person would imagine that they rode in another world-so colorful and pie turesque is everything. The con- tour of the mountains, the long sweep of the grass covered slopes, as they curve down and end in end in dizzy precipices, are sights that no one could hope to equal on canvas. The swales are slotted with multi -colored flowers and the ravines are literally choked with ferns and with 'puhka" plants, as they are called by the natives.
 The country resembles the cow country so often described in Zane Grey's novels with the exception of the cactus plant and the coyote. These are both missing on Chern- ofski Island. The dogs, however, make up for the coyote and his howls.
 MT. and Mrs. Kranich plan to make trip to the Outside this Fall, it is stated.

5000 ARMENIANS RETURN no
SOVIET ARMENIA

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Dec 30 (by maiD
"A ship carrying 1000 Armenians
left the Bulgarian Black Sea port Of
Burgas on December 80 TO return to
their native Armenia. which is now
a free member OF the Union of So
cialist Soviet Republics. In January
a larger ship load of 1000 AImenians
will also leave Burgas for Armenia.
The repatriation of these Arme-
mans has been organized by two rep
resentatives of the Armenian Soviet
Government and the Bulgarian au-
thorities. In an interview with the
press these representatives declared
that the development Of industry IN
Armenia required an increasing num-
Der of workers and that there was
room enough in Soviet Armenia and
bread and work for all those Anne
mans who wanted to return.

OFFICE WORKERS TURN
TO ORGANIZED ACTION

NEW York; am an unem-
ployed office worker and would like
to relate some of my experiences with
the Emergency Work Bureau.
Last year, while I was working in
one of the largest department stores,
Mr. Gibson and Mrs. Hutton, both
millionaires, came to the employees
and appealed to our sylnpathies to
contribute to the Emergency Fund,
They told us about the prevailing
misery and tried to impress us that
we were very lucky to be working and
so we must help, even though we
were only making IL to IA dollars a
week.
When I was thrown out of work,
was forced to turn to the Emer
gency Work Bureau. All have re-
ceived SO far are promises. 1 de-
cided I could not live on promises.
Thursday, together with IA other
girls, representing the Unemployed
Office Workers Association, we went
up to see Mrs. Belmont, head of the
Women's Division of the E.WB., who
maintains gorgeous otlceS at the
Waldorf Astoria, at the expense OF
the workers.
We cited our cases and demanded
immediate jobs or relief. Despite
the fact that the Emergency has COL
lected $14,OO0,000 according to the
newspapers under the slogan "W'ell
see it through" they claimed they
we're unable to take care of the I'M
employed adequately. Names and
addresses of cases were presented
and spec attention was promised.
But even if some cash relief is OBJ
tanned and jobs received, we realize
that this is only temporary-and it
does not solve the problem.
We Office workers who have never
realized what organization means,
derstand now that only by
strengthening our organization, the
Unemployed Office Workers Associ-
alton. and fight for unemployment
insurance, can our problems be
solved.

BOARD EXPELLS
CC.N.Y. STUDENTS
10 Ousted for Protest
Mass Trial in Oct.

NEW YORK,-Nineteen students Of
the College Of the City of New York
were expelled for the month begin
ming the new school year by the Board
of Higher Education when the latter
met laE Tuesday night.
The Board continued the attack
against these students for attending
a mass trial last october which found
the C.CN.Y. administration guilty OF
sending police to beat students at a
meeting in CCN.Y. protesting the
ousting Of Oakley johnson from the
school faculty.
The expulsion is in reality an eX-
pulsion for the whole term because
after missing the first months work
the students will be unable to catch
up.
The Board discreetly waited until
mass pressure against the case had
died down and students are more or
less disbanded by the ending of the
school year.
The National Students League at
10 West 18th St, will lead N. Y. stu
dents in a protest and are preparing
a petition demanding the reinstate-
ment of the expelled students.

International
Notes
HOW MANCHURIA is "PACIFIED"
Bg ROBERT HAMILTON

NOW NIANCHOhlA - EACAH lLb
SHANGHAI, Dec. 26 (by maiD.-
The "Chinese Weekly Review" pub
fishes an interesting article on the
situation in Manchuria. Since Sep
ltember Is, 1881, when the japanese
invaded Manchuria, the country has
been in utter chaos. The authority
of the so-called state of Manchoukuo,
supported on Japanese bayonets, pre-
walls in the railway zones and the
more important cities, otherwise the
great inland areas Of Manchmia are
completely in the hands of Chinese
irregulars. These irregulars are con-
Quoting a desperate struggle against
the japanese occupation and Will
probably continue to do so for long
time to come despite tremendous diff
ficulties, shortage of weapons and
ammunition and a lack of skilled or
ganizers and leaders.
Since the japanese invasion the
population of Manchuria has been
ruined. The ravages of war. the dis
organization of trade and Industry,
and the destruction ca"sC1 by the
fighting has been enhf tx d by the
terrible floods.
The population is bitterly opposed
to the Manchukuo government and
I prepared to revolt against it at the
| first opportunity The Chinese irreg-
ulars enjoy the complete support Of
} the population
This report from capitalist sources
on the "pacification of Manchuria
gives the lie direct to the japanese
pretense that all the people Of Man
churia are behind the new regime.

NINTE COMMUNIST
PARTIES HIT WAR
Hold Meet Against the
Versailles System

/ BERLIN. Jan. ia Call TO the in
| ternauonal proletariat to mobilize its
| forces in stern resistance 10 the drive
of the imperialist War-mongers for a
lueW and bloOdier world war was issued
at a conference, January l, of the
! Communist Parties of Germany
France, England Poland Italy,
| Czccho-Sl0qabda, Austria Belgium
ana Luxembourg. The conference was
held in Essen on the occasion Of the
approaching 10Th anniversary Of the
occupation of the Ruhr by French
imperialism.
New World War Preparing
The conference dealt in detail with
all those international conflicts which
herald the approach Of a new world
war especially with the war in the
Far East, the raising Of the question
OF debts and tributes and the an
tagOnisms which are becoming eX-
!. CeedlngIy acute between German,
French and Polish imperialism, as
well as the strained relations between
italy and Yugoslayia, Czechoslovakia
and Hungary, etc.
The conference directed the at
tenti0n OF all t0ilers to the increased
efforts Of the imperiaIist robbers to
settle their differences at t4e cX-
pense of the U. S. S. r. The con-
ference declared il 60 be The duty Of
all Communist parties TO mobilize
the toiiiug masses on a larger scale
than hitherto for the defense of the
Soviet Union. To expose tire anti
Soviet lies of the bourgeOisie and
the Socialist leaders.
The conference proved the tremen-
dOus power Of the Communist world
party, which is able to set up the
united fighting front of the toilers OF
the victor, as Well as of the van
pushed states against the Versailles
slave system.
Against National Oppression
One Of the most important ques-
tons dealt with by the Conference
was the question Of the fight against
the national oppression Of the peoples
and national minorities in Central
and Eastern Europe. The represent
tatives Of the Polish, Czech, French,
Belgian and italian Parties stigma
tiled the bloody and cruel methods Of
oppression employed by the imperial
lists against the peoples of Upper ST.
lesia. POSen western White Russia
and the western Ukraine. Alsace-Lor-
r3ine and the Saar district, Eupen-
Malmedy, southern Tyrol and against
the Germans in the Sudetic districts
of CzechoslOvakia. They proclaimed
hte fight for the right Of self deted-
mination Of these oppressed nations
All participants in the conference
emphasized that with the increasing
war preparations Of the bosses, eco
offensive also increases, and that
nomic exploitation and the starvation
therefore the fight against cuts in
wages, unemployment benefits, pen
sions, etc, the fight of the working
peasants against forced sales adm the
/ pressure Of taxation must be closely
linked UP with the fight against i'm
perialist war

Graft Link-Up of
Taxi Fleet Owners
and Police Shown Up

NEW YORK. "A maneuver by
large taxi owners has resulted in
the exposure Of the fact that the
fleet owners have been paying thou
sands OF dollars in graft to the
Police Department.
A. H. I, Brown, editor Of the Taxi
Weekly" Tuesday filed with the
Commissioner of Accounts a 24-page
statement, threatening proof of the
graft payments and setting forth the
demands of the fleet owners. Some
police get from SO to 500 monthly
from the companies, he said.
The Fleet Owners in the mean
time are favoring the new taxi code,
which will enable them TO use the
police against independent and en-
ployed cabmen. This code, however,
is being fought by the Taxi Workers
Union and other groups of cabmen,
opposed to the fleet owners.

1.-THE meters of our plant show that
today a production Of 100,423,7 700 kilo

liars who are spreading the rumor
that the Dnieper plant has been built
but is failing to function satisfac-
torily. On the eve Of the beginning Of

MORE JAPANESE PREPARATIONS
FOR WAR

Japanese arms factories are work
ing day and night, according to a
ShenFhai weekly. Many industrial
factories have already been converted
into war plants Great columns OF
motor trucks are arriving from Eu-
rope ior war tansp0t Imp0ts from
Europe include mateials for the man
ufaeture of poison gas.
The japanese naval base at Kura
is being extended and developed at o
feyerish pace, the number of workers
employed there having increased
from 5000 to 1900 since last year
The war arsenals in Ivanulzi, Shi-
monoseki, and Chikodsima have all
been expanded,
Six new big, chemical plants have
been built for the manufacture Of
poison gas. Iron and steel plants are
also being recognized for war uses,
The airplane base in Sasebo has been
enlarged and hangers are being built
for giant bombing planes. A new air
plane base is being constructed in
Bagamega Kachara.
Demo Tzusin, the semi-official
news agency, announces a big four
year program for strengthening the
Japanese war fleet.
The Japanese bourgeois press Is
making no effort to conceal or deny
these open preparations for war The
tax situation in Japan is so catastro-
pllic that these war expenditures
cannot be met from current income
and the japanese government is
therefore adopting the old expedient
Of running the note printing presses

WORKER CORRESPONDENTS
GREATER STRUGGLES, GREATER VICTORIES
OF UNEMPLOYED
SHOE WORKER CALLS FOR
FIGHT ON SPLITTERS

YIN L EMS
NEW YORK. Il want to say a few
words about the mass meeting OF
shoe, slipper and stitchdown workers
which the shoe and Leather Workers
Industrial Union is calling for
tonight at Irving Plaza, Irving Place,
corner of 18th st.
This mass meeting must bring
sharply to the forefront the dangers
the shoe workers are facing now.
The Federation of Shoe Workers, :"
led by a fascist clique, is trying to
stir up national prejudices and to
break up the unity of the workers in
the shops. The Union must isolate
this clique by calling upon the work
ers in the shops to stand united on
a basis of struggle against wage cuts,
layoffs and discharges.
The Union must point out con-
cretely how a United Front action
of rank and file workers brings vic
tory and defeats the disruption OF
unity. The Weissman Sass shoe
strike, which was called by the Fed
Grafton, is a great lesson to the shoe
workers, pointing out concretelly how
the workers can be united and out
maneuver the Federation leaders in
their attempt to keep the crew split.
What was the position of the In
dustrial Union in this striker
/. To call out all workers to join
the striking lasters.
2. To formulate joint demands.
8. To elect a joint strike commit
tee.
The leaders of the Federation were
against these proposals but the work
ers knew that this would strengthen
the strike and the whole crew
adopted all the proposals, and on the
basis of united action proceeded with
the strike and won victory.
At the coming mass meeting the
union must come clearly with pro-
gram of concrete demands so that
the workers should grasp the i'm
portance of the present organization
drive.
The leadership OF the union muS'
be prepared with definite proposals
how organization work is to be
carried on in the shops, how shop
groups can be built and what these
groups must do to rally the rest OF
the workers around them for united
action to establish minimum base
prices, hours and organization in the
shops.
1t is also my opinion that large
organization committee should be
elected Of members arg non-mem-
bers to carry out daily concentration
at definitely assigned shops.
The shoe, slipper and stitchdowr
workers must come to this important
mass meeting to demonstrate for
the union and to throw themselves
into struggle for the defense of the
employed and unemployed shoe
workers.

Elect Delegates to Big
Meet Jan. 24-25

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Jan. 18-
While the officialdom OF the Socialist
Party has split into two groups the
Hillquit group supporting the mis-
leaders Of the United Mint Workers,
and the Thomas group those Of the
Progressive Miners, but both united
in their efforts tc betray the Illinois
miners the rank and file miners are
themselves taking matters into their

united front below around the state
conference on unemployment to be
held here Tuesday and Wednesday,
Jan 24-25 The conference will take
place at Carpenter Union Hall, 5O512
E. Monroe St., Springfield.
The quarrel" between Norman
Thomas end Morris Hillquit is a fam
lily affair, and centers around the
question of what tactics are best in
putting over the betrayal. Thomas,
leading the so-called militant" group
in the Socialist Party, believes that
the Lewis gang of the U. NJ. w. has
been SO discredited that new group
of sellout experts, the P. NJ. A. lead
ers, who include socialists" Music
ties and Trotskyites, has to be built
Up, while Hillquit wants to stick to
the "old guard who have proved
their usefulness to the bosses in the
past Meanwhile the Lewis Walker
U. NJ W. crowd and the P. M. a.
officials are holding secret confer
ences, trying to smooth out their
differences in an effort to crush the
strike in Christian County and get
the members Of both unions to accept
the agreement signed for two more
years by Lewis and Walker, which
cuts wages 10 per cent dn practice
this has amounted to % per cent?
Many Locals Elect Delegates.
With more than half the miners
in Illinois unemployed and the rest
working part-time, many locals OF
the Progressive Miners, as U2lI as
United Mine Workers loca., are
preparing to send delegates to The
conference. P. M. A. locals in Spring
field, Pana, Pawnee, Belleville, ORAL
Ion, East ST. Louis, etc, have al
ready elected delegates Other Or
Eanizations are also answering the
call of the Unemployed Councils for
this conference, which will adopt a
united front statewide program of
action to fight the starvation an1
misery to which the 100000 unem-
ployed and l,250000 part-time work
ers IN Illinois have been condemned
by the bosses. The following de-
mands have been proposed for dis
cussion
1. Immediate cash relief for all
unemployed workers.
?. Stopping of all evictiOns and
a moratorium on debts Of all work
ing-class home owners and farm
ers.
3. Unemployment insurance at
the expense Of the state and fed
eral governments,
a. Workers control over the dis
tribution of relief funds.
5. No discrimination against
single workers, Negroes, foreign
born workers, strikers, small prop
erty owners or part-tine workers in
the distribution of relief.
6. Free books, clothes, food and
carfare to the school children.
The conference will conclude with
a mass meeting on the 25th.
