ing in --, which is frankly O
company town, we had an attendance
of 800. Last week we held meet
ing there, in memory Of Negro and
white worker who were killed by
the speed-up, which was attended by
300 workers. Efforts at mass recruit
ing at these meetings have met with
little or no response owing to the
strength of the company terror. OUT
side recruiting continues on an tn~
diVidual basis.
Thousands Of aflets-rnostly

company representatives, etc, warm
ing the workers to be on guard. We
have reacted, at least on the agita~
tional side, to every step Of the very
rapid developments taking place
throughout and within the mills
When the 40-hour week with in
creased speed-up and lower wages
went into effect, we put out a "Cau
for Action" outlining the methods
for building united front committees
in the departments. AS result Of
this, several department actions were
carried on, more or less according to
our directions, defeating the 10-hour
day, 4-day week, but not securing ths
wage-increase demanded. We have
distributed about 1000 copies OF the
Daily Worker at Street-car points
and in the steel neighborhoods. We
have sent articles every week for the
paper, and have seen that these is
sues reached the steel workers. We
are following this up with house,
toulouse campaign for selling the
Daily in steel territories. We have
also sold 800 copies Of the Steel and
Metal Worker, and could have sold
more.
Too Much Leaflet Leadership
So far our leadership has been
more largely expressed in leaflets
than in direct action. The prestige
of our union is much stronger than
our organization inside the mill. We
have succeeded in exposing and
largely to checking the A. F. of L.
leadership for the time being, but
we have not been able to give
strong example of inside leadership.
A fair amount Of recruiting has been
carried on for our union inside the
mill, but this was the work of half
a dozen comrades rather than of the
whole group. The workers inside are
more ready to fight than most of our
comrades, many Of whom tend to
pessimism or passive waiting. They
do not react quickly enough to the
grievances inside and are sometimes
slow TO inform the office of important
developments. This Is due to the
fact that insufficient educational
work has been carried ON in the nu-
cleus as well as In the union in the
past, and the political level of our
Party comrades in low.
The low political level Of the nu-
cleus can likewise be traced to the
fact that neither the organizer nor
the nucleus itself has been able to
receive any concrete guidance from
the section. No representative Of the
District or of the Central Committee
has yet attended a meeting of the
-- nucleus. Is this plant
supposed to be national concentra-
ton point?

Inc JEWISH SECLlOu IS SLlll lllhI Cll-
ing ahead of the drive with 302 new
members last week This is prac-
tically double the required weekly
average of 154. Even at that there
is still room for great improvement.
The largest part Of the new mem
bers of the Jewish section we're re-
cruited in New York. Such Jewish
workers Centers as Philadelphia, Chi
cago, Rochester, are much too far
behind New York.
The Hungarian section kept up its
pace and aoain more than filled its
weekly quota with ITO new mem
bers and % children last week.
AS a newcomer, we must register
the formation in New York of a
Czech branch this week with IS new
members.
The Roumaniau section is picking
up and nearing its quota average, but
it is still behind
The Polish and Italian sections still
do not deserve honorable mention.
The weakest spot Of the drive, how
ever. remains the English and youth
sections. The first had SO and the
latter q new members last week,
against a required quota average for
each section of 70.
Where is the cooperation Of the
language sections for the building of
the English section? Where is our
determination to build an English
section OF at least 5000 by the time
OF our next convention?e Where is
our Negro concentration work? And
where is the help which our adult
branches owe to the building Of the
youth section of our Order?
Our drive is very successful so far,
judged by numbers. Let us make it
successful politically too. Let us
continue our efforts to build our
language sections with the same zeal
shown in the past three weeks; but
let us double our efforts for the
building Of the English, the youth
and the children's sections.

To cap the climax of the absurd
claims made in behalf of that rather
pleasant candy, formaldehyde acts by
dehydration, lie. it kills germs by
withdrawing their water content. II
the water affinity of formaldehyde
is satisfied before the germs reach
it, then it is obviously incapable OF
destroying them. And this is exactly
what happens: AS soon as the candy
is put in the mouth it becomes sat-
urated with the saliva which Is main

critics 1t might have had, are imme-
diately neutralized. Similar contra
dictions may be found In all other
guaranteed" mouth washes. They
are useless at their best, and may
become harmful when they have suf-
ficient antiseptic power.
The only part Of the mouth which
needs occasional care is the teeth. But
even they do not need as much at
tention as the tooth paste and tooth
brush manufacturers have induced us
to give them.
AS q matter Of fact, the real n.y.
giene of the teeth is an entirely diff
ferent thing than the one usually
practiced. But this subject requires
a separate article.
IF one were to believe the numerous
! advertisements in the newspapers,
magazines, street cars and subways,
the simplest way Of having perfect
teeth should consist in brushing them
zealously morning, noon and night.

l. CORNER WRANGELL TEACHER
MARRIES NEW MEXICO GIRL

Announcements of the wedding
of VIM. E. Mcclellan and Miss Nell
Alien of Clovis, New Mexico, on
December %, were received in
Wrangell this week. Mr. Mcclellan
was a popular member of Wrangell
High School during the 1925-26
term. He refused reelection and
returned to his native state of Tex
as, locating at Spearman where he
established a Chevrolet agency
which he is still conducting.
The newly-weds spent Christmas
Day at Carlsbad, n. NJ, and from
the famous Carlsbad Caverns, $50
feet underground, Mac wrote to a
Wrangell friend about his matri-
monlal venture and described his
bride as "a blonde, not too small
and not too Large" which is as
clearly descriptive as the usual
bridegroom is capable of making.
FRIENDS and former pupils unite in
wishing the young couple every
happiness.

[. IRVINE RECOVERING FROM
ACCIDENTAL RIFLE WOUND

Louis Irvine, formerly of Wran-

with his parents has lived eighty
miles out from Whitehorse, Yukon
Ty., had the misfortune to shoot
himself the first of December with
his % rifle which discharged as he
was pulling it from his packsack.
The Mounted Police of Whitehorse
were notified of the accident and
with a doctor left by dog team for
the scene of the accident near Fish
Lake. Two days later the TreadweIl
Yukon plane flew over to bring
Louis into Whitehorse but the pilot
found that he could not land so
the injured lad had to be brought
in by dog team to the hospital.
The bullet which entered the
chest was located near the shoulder
and was extracted by DR.. Wride.
Late reports stated that Louis was
making a rapid recovery.

tinuous output and thus in time
eQualize or even reverse the ratio
between their output and that OF
the placers.
The value OF the gold recovered
from Alaska placers in 1882 is esti-
mated to have been S5,312.000, or
about $4,000 more than was re-
covered from mines of this type in
1851. This great increase appears to
nave been brought about by the es-
peeially favorable weather eondi-
tions, which afforded an unusually
abundant water supply at most of
the camps, and by the stimulation
OF development of gold placers be-
cause of curtailment in other indus
tries and the high price received
Tor the gold in relation to other
commodities. By far the largest
amount of placer gold came from the
Yukon region, with the Seward Pen
insula region second. The other
placer mining regions together con-
ttibuted about 20 per cent of the
entire placer gold output in the Ter
ritory and in the order of placer
production stood as follows: Kus-
kokwim, Cook Inlet-Susitna, Copper
River, northwestern Alaska, and
southeastern Alaska The largest
producer in the Yukon region was
the Fairbanks Exploration Co., and
the largest one in the Seward Pen
insula region was the Harmon Con-
solidated Gold Fields at Nome

Heavy schools of herring driven

numerous this year, are coming into
