them, so he wrote q 134-page pam

The position he has been given is
an important and responsible one.
The Soviet Control Commission is
responsible for the carrying out of
production plans, supervising the
fulf1llment of decisions of the CEN
trail bodies of the Soviet Govern

Foreign workers in Irkutsk
brought to the attention Of the
Soviet Control Commission there
lately, that 100000 rubles worth of
goods had been lying in ware
house for almost three years though
organizations in the vicinity needed
the products badly. All parties con-
cerned were Immediately called to
meeting and were given instruc-
tons to sell at once and a warning
was issued to all organizations to
clear up their warehouses. This is
only part of the function and value
of the Soviet Control Commission.

Initiation Fee Cut
In Carpenters Union

At the last meeting of the New
York Carpenters District Council,
the delegates decided to let car
penters into the New York locals
for SIS, as a special dispensation to
expire in so days.
This decision comes as result
of rapid decline of the Carpen-
tiers Union membership which has
fallen from 10000 to $4,000 in New
York alone.
The militant workers in the union
demanded IS initiation fee year
ago. The reactionary council chiefs
laughed at the proposition then.
Now that the disintegration of the
union has reached the pockets of
the local officials, some locals ap-
piled directly to the General Of
flee for this special dispensation.
The local officials discovered that
where there are no dues there are
no salaries.

Painters Union: BY fraudulent
voting and use of gangsters to ter
rorize the membership, Philip Zaus-
ner, secretary Of District No. 9,
Brotherhood of Painters, Paper
hangers and Decorators Of America,
and other officers succeeded in put
ting over a SOC work tax upon I'M
employed unionists. Nearly 100000
was collected by January, 1884. In
1882, before Zausner's return to the
union, he was engaged as a boss
painter-an employer-and con-
spired with Jake Holtz, business
agent of the union in Brooklyn
and brother of notorious gang
Ster, to pay union members as much
as SO per cent under the union
scale on job in which Zausner
was interested.

conspired with employers and even
permitted detective attached to
the police force to attend their
meetings. On February IL, 1894, a
resolution adopted by 300 members
charged them with these things and
of misusing funds and undermining
union wage scales and conditions.
~. P. Morrin, general president
of the International Association Of
Bridge, Structural and Ornamental
Iron Workers receives SIS, 900 year
plus expenses and $12 daily for ex-
penses. At the 1882 convention of
the union, he placed the blame for
the difficulties in the Newark dis
trict not upon the corruption of the
officials, but upon radical activities!
Morrin also conspired with John
Schilling, financial-secretary of
Local So in New York City, when
the latter vas not reelected to his
post. In the "a years Schilling held
Office he did not once render a fin
ancial accounting. An audit forced
by union members showed that he
eould not account for more than
100000 that had passed through
his hands. Because of this revolt,
Schilling caused Local 50 to be sus-
pended in 1888 and, with the full
backing Of Morrin, established a
new Local, 447.

Reduction in the consumption

Cuba on imports of rice from
the United States, according to
the Commerce Department.
In accordance with provisions
of the U. Scuba reciprocity
treaty, the consumption tax of
81 a 100 pounds on imported
rice, effective since August, 1882,
will be subject to the benefits Of
the 40 per cent preferential re-
duction granted the United
States, when such rice is grown
in and imported from the United
States. The new ruling was ap-
proved by Cuba, April %, to be-
come effective Immediately.
Under a previous decree the
consumption tax had been condi-
tionally suspended on cleaned
rice Of domestic production, leav-
ing it applicable only to imported
