Gold Hunters To Roam Canada As
 Real Surveyors
(By The Associated Press)

OTTAWA Aug. 28, - Canada's newest and probably the strangest gold rush in it's history is on.
 The vanguard of an army of near ly 1,500 professional and amateur prospectors, who will search the whole of Canada and it's possessions in the far north to find where the dominion's vast untouched mineral riches lie, has left for the Yukon, scene of many famous gold strikes.
 Parties made up of geological stu dents and laborers, and supervised by experienced geologists, have started out for the far corners of the country, often through virgin terri tory, seldom before trod by white men, to find and map mineral de- posists at the expense of the Fed eral government
 The hunt will last a year and will cost $1,000,000. It is unique in that the prospectors will do very little actual prospecting and will be un- able to stake clans. It will be more of geological survey.
 No Claims To Be Staked
 The men work directly for the Canadian Department of Mines, and since the department is not allowed to stake claims, the gold hunters merely will note location of their discoveries and move on to other

 SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 28, - Threats of another maritime strike, which Harry Bridges fiery long shoremen leader, declared would be a darned big fight, found industrial and business leaders in at least four ports organizing for action.
 Bridges, who spurred labor in San Francisco Bay cities into mass walk outs last year declared that Atlan- tic, Gulf and Lake ports would be drawn into the new strike, which he said was looming.
 Portland and San Francisco busi- ness and industrial leaders simultan eously moved to complete an or ganization. They said they intend ed to guard against the disruption of normal orderly trade and com merce. The spokesmen of two or ganizations declared they recogniz- ed the right to strikes, but also in- sisted on the right to work, for non union employees.

 Senator Dickinson of Iowa said the first session of the 74th cong ress will be remembered for it's ill-advised legislation, extravagant appropriations, and the four billion dollars for work relief waste.

 Dimond said that the measure which was sent to President Roose- welt merely authorized the survey and construction of, but did not provide for any funds. He said he funds would De made available soon
 Representative Zioncheck of Wash ington agreed with Dimond but said

Building Trades Are Found Among
Most Dangerous of Occupations

GENEVA.-The building trades are
the most dangerous of all forms Of
work, excepting mining, navigation
and numbering, where the forces Of

survey Just completed by the 1nterna-
tional Labor Office.
Germany, Canada, France. the
United States, the Netherlands, Spain,

countries in which working conditions
were investigated, report that the
number of accidents, fatal and non
fatal, among building trades workers
Is higher than the average OF all in
dustries.
In Germany, for example, 106 out
Of l 1000 full-time workers are victims
of accidents annually, as against a
total of so per 1000 full-time work
ers in all industries. Seven fatal ac-
cidents per 1000 full-time workers
is the average In the United States

per 1000 full-time workers, while In
all industries combined the average
Is only IA to Is. Five times as any
work-hours are lost in the building
trades through accidents as in other
industries whose averages are COM
bined. Canada also reports heavier
casualties in building trades than in
any other work, the record being
1927 per cent of all fatal accidents
in 1881 and 1878 per cent in 1882.
In Austria the building trades be-

1923. The commercial conference
which was held in washington in
1889 under Secretary of State Blaine
made our people Latin America-con-
scious. The political implications OF
doctrine and conference have mott
vated our public and private relations
with these nations. Our public att1-
tude, our popular imagination and our
private procedure toward Latin Amer
lea have been informed and deter
mined by a literature that derives
from the political philosophy OF Mon
roe and the economic pragmatlsm OF
the American conferences in
augurated by Secretary Blaine, The
political approach has gradually LED

After describing at length the In
consistencies In policies and procedure
of both political parties and their
leaders in their conduct of inter-
American relations, DR.. Swiggett sug-
gests that, if the Government and the
people of the United States are really
interested in achieving accord in hu-
man relations, not merely temporary
political truces or artificial CONNER

ward the social approach and
modify materially the source and the

linquent may become the determining
factor in the handling in Chicago of
criminal cases in which defendants
are children.
Meeting with Judge Frank Bicek Of
the Juvenile Court, States Attorney

Brazil Revives Mining
By New Price on Gold

BELLO FORIZONTE. Brazil CP.-
Gold fever. newly infiamed by the
governments establishment Of price
of approximately Sl.20 a gram, has
broken out once more in Brazil.
For more than $50 years dreams OF
sudden wealth have been kept alive
by legends Of vast untapped gold de-
posits in remote sections.
Even the government appears to be
playing a part in the current zeal for
exploration of undiscovered mineral
resources. An EngliShman, A. j. Ben
susan, who recently arrived in this
capital of MinaS Geraes State said he
had been engaged by the government
as an expert to make survey OF gold
mining possibilities.
This state has been a favorite
stamping ground of gold prospectors
since 1893. At one time during the
nineteenth century. the Portuguese
crown derived an annual income esti-
mated at more than $1,500000 from
the mines in this vicinity.
The outstanding Brazilian mines
now being worked are owned by Brit
ish interests Among the most i'm
portant is Sac Joao Del-Rey, with an
estimated annual output of 6,6l2
pounds Of yellow metal.

New Approach to Pan-Americanism
Through Culture Is Urged for u. S.

Political background should be less
emphasized in the training Of dipo-
mats. Career men may perhaps not
serve us best. at least for the present,
in this region This type of man and
his traditional technique emphasizes
needlessly. sometimes to embarrass.
the political aspects Of his mission.
Our foreign service was established,
and has since expanded, in the univer-
sal belief of political protection as its
major function. Career men are bred
in this belief and trained to its tech
nique of expression. We need, how
ever, in Latin America. as our accred-
tied representatives, men with social
understanding and vision. We need
fewer military and commercial at
taches. They can well be replaced by
cultural attaches; to promote detached
and disinterested study and exchange
of information essential to mutual
friendly understanding"
What a different outlook, how more
sympathetic-and more exact-an at
titude toward such important ques-
tions as the clash between church and
state in Mexico, the social unrest in
Cuba. the reform movement in Peru,
ETC., would there result in government
circles. as we'll as in the public opin-
ion of the United States. if the judg-
ment of both could be enlightened by
