new COMPILATION
OF QUOTA FIGURES
Commissions Tabulation Reveals
Increase in Disparity
Among States.

The apparent futility of attempting
to obtain an equitable distribution of
broadcasting facilities among the States
and radio zones, as required by law, is
reflected in a new compilation of radio
quota figures prepared by the Federal
Radio Commission. With 80 States
over quota and 18 under quota, the tab
ulations show an even wider disparity
than was recorded in November, when
the last list was prepared.
Particular significance attaches to the
quota figures because there is now pend
ing before the Supreme Court the cele-
brated WHO case In which the validity
of the commissions quota regulations
are involved. Should the commission
be successful in the highest tribunal, its
authority would be clear to exercise a
free hand in eliminating stations or in
cutting down power and other assign
ments in the 80 over quota stations and
assigning new facilities to the under
quota areas, without regard for the law.
The quota regulations were devised by
the commission in an effort to comply
with the so-called Davis amendment to
the radio act, adopted nearly four years
ago, and calling for an equal distribu-
tion of stations, power and hours OF
operation among the five radio zones
into which the country is divided and

never to allow them near the broadcast

SHARE.THE-MlSERY

BROOKLYN, N. Y.-The bosses OF
New York have undertaken to COM

Work" plan, and also to give further
wage-cuts, SO as TO lower the niser-
able standard Of living Of the New
York workers,
Not to be outdone, the furniture
firm of G. l.. Bauman Co. has swung
right into line and set to work with
a will. Wage-cuts are the order of
the day.
Now that the New Year season has
arrived, Mr. Bauman has fired every
one, except those vitality necessary,
and few stool-pigeons, making a
grand total of some 80 workers, all
struggling and sweating for a measly
$18 to $40 week. In some cases,
very rarely, the chauffeurs earn as
much as 328 In a week. This boss
has made 1t practics to charge the
workers for merchandise that is lost,
also for that which Is accidentally
broken.
Sentiment for unionisn Is very
weak. The writer has been several
times threatened with the loss OF his
Job, because the stool-pigeons have
rated on him. At present there are
SO few workers here, and they are so
terorized, that not much progress
has been made erganizationally. But
we can only build our union or work

TROTSKYITES TRY TO BAR
NEGRO FROM MEETING

NEW YORK CITY.-Upon arriv-
ing at 142 2nd Ave-, where ! was
informed that there would be G
lecture on "FasciSm" by the "Com-
munist Party Opposition" (Trotsky-
ites), I was met with very strange
comradely approach. First they did
not want me to come in as l was
a Negro, and seemingly did not have
any place amongst the whites.
After putting up a struggle with
the door man, finally was success
full in getting inside. As ! sat down,
their members, who were sitting next
to me, obviously objected to a Negro
and showed it by moving away. This
is the type Of social equality that
the Trotskyites promise the Negro
masses.
The speaker attacked the Daily
Worker, saying 1t did not fight
against fascism, in spite of the fact
that the Daily Worker, the Central
Organ Of the Communist Party.
from the day that Hitler took power,
carried various headlines calling for
united actions against fascism and
for general protest strikes in Ger
many as well as in other parts of
the world.
The speaker attempted to point
out that the C.P. is not carrying on
any struggles against fascism. Altho
the capitalist press is forced to ad-
NIT that the G. P. Of Germany, etc,
is carrying on a relentless struggle
against fascism. Many Of the leaders
are reported to be killed and wound
ed as a result Of the militant pro-
tests.
Due to the fact that he could
not attack the G. p. on any other
field. he turned to the trade unions
Of the Trade Union Unity League.
The gentleman who represented his
loyal master, Mr.. Capitalist Glass
and Trotsky &c Co., attempted to
say that the T. u. U. l.. policy for
carrying on struggles against wage
cuts, long hours, speed-up, etc, was
incorrect. and that was his main

COMMUNISTS IN

Part of Whole Fight
Of Workers on
Boss Attacks

NEW YORR.-The Communist
Party OF the U. S. A. yesterday sent
the following letter completely en-
dorsing the Free Mooney Congress"
called for Chicago, April 30, May
and 2nd:
February Is, 1888.
Mooney Molders Defense Committee,
San Francisco, California.
Dear Conlrades:-
This letter is to officially inform
you that which you already know
from our activities, that the Conlmu-
mist Party Of the United States has
decided Internationally 10 support
the call Of Tom Mooney for the Gree
Mooney Congress" in Chicago on APP
ril 30, May LIST and End. Our entire
press and Party organization is being
modified to support this Congress
and to carry the issue into every
mass organization Of the workers.
1t is our opinion that the issue OF
freedom for Tom Mooney is an in
tegral part of the whole struggle OF
the working class against the capital
list attacks on the living standards
and political rights of the toiling
masses. At the same time it is an
outstanding case in the historically
developing struggle of the American
workers against imperialist war.
We believe that out of this Con-
gress the working class will forge a
greater solidarity and greater fight
ing power, and more clear concep-
ton OF how effectively to fight for
MONEYS freedom as part of their
own class interests.
Fraternally yours,
EARL BROWDER, Sec'y.

NEW YORK.-The death OF Ernie
Schaaf, leading heavyweight boxer,
has lifted tiny curtain OF the veil
covering the rottenness Of boxing in
the United States-and, for that mat
ter, the whole corrupt structure of
capitalist professional sports. 1t has
caused a sensation greater than that

The politicians and racketeers are
the real killers of Schaaf. He did
not die from the blows received from
the club-like fists Of Camera. This
Is the unacceptable conclusion from
any kind of knowledge of the circurn-
stances and the characters surround
ing the Carnera-Schaaf scrap.
Was the Fight "Fixed?"
1t undoubtedly was. Look at the
facts:
He couldn't get shot at the
championship even if he won because
Sharkey, the worlds champ. was his
manager. Victory. therefore, would
mean nothing. He was sent into the
fight total physical wreck. He got
out OF hospital, where he had been
confined with influenza, only three
weeks before. He trained exactly four
days for the fight WeStbrook Peg

SEWARD YOUTH Is AMONG HIGH RANKING
 STUDENTS J. 0F WN

It is not every year that Seward high school is honOred to have it's graduates get on the scholarship lists of outside universities and it
 is not every high school in the Territory that can proudly point to the excellent records being made by it's graduates who are continu- ing their studies in the institutions of higher learning.
 Information received from the University of Washington in the last mail is to the effect that among the high ranking students On the scholarship list of that U ni- versitv is Otto Sandbeck of the Seward high schools graduating class of 1930 and associate editor of the Seward Gateway. Student Sandbeck made the scholarship list for the winter quarter, just completed and came through with the following grades: Economics, five hours A; Political Science, five hours A; anguage three hours A; Language (SecOnd course) two hours B; Journalism one hour B; and Physical Education one hour B.
 In the vernacular of the college student, Student Sandbeck made a grade of 13 hours A and fours B, or a grade average of 3.7 out of the highest possible grade aver age of 4. For the sake of compari- son it may be interesting to know that during the first or fall quar- ter, Student Sandbeck's grades were one hour of A, II hours of E, and five hours of c; or a grade average of 2.8. Sandbeck is a freshman. He returns to The Gateway in June.
