of whom are young, are being care
fully shielded by those who know
about the discovery

to the office of U. S. Commission

the treasure.
Affidavit withheld

The two finders, who say the
spot at which they dug up the gold
is not on private property, kept
their find tight secret until today
when gold talk" was heard per-
sistently in Juneau.
The gold, still in its sealed TASKS
is believed to be on its way to the
U. S. Assay office in Seattle.
It's value is estimated at any
where from $4,000 to $4,000 1t Is
said it will be paid for at the ole
price of approximately $21, though
it may qualify as new gold, worth
$35 an ounce. At either price, the
find is valuable one.

u. S. Probes Lockout
Of Chemical Workers

Richmond, Calf. (AFLWNS). -
John E. O'Connor, conciliator of the
U. S. Department of Labor, came to
Richmond to investigate the lockout
of the employees of the Nichols chemi-
cal plant here affecting members of
h m ical Workers Local Union
2O529 affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor.
The union was recently certified as
the bargaining agent for the en-
ployes of the company by the National
Labor Relations Board, but it is
stated that the management declined
to recognize the certifcation. The
lockout deprived 1876 workers of en-
ployment.

Of LU No. 66 Gilders
Crooksville Decorators Are
Compiling Detailed
Price List

Crooksville, O.-Recently the gilders
Of Local Union No. &c, Crooksville,
with the endorsement and support Of
the local, compiled detailed list Of
the prices paid at our plant for gid
ing. We mailed copy Of this list to
each local in the trade that has giders
among it's members, together with an
explanation of the purpose Of this
list and request that each local or
gilders from each plant compile a
similar list Of prices paid at their
plant and mail to every local with
gilders on its books.
This is our first step in a plan to
assist the joint committee which is
working out uniform prices and wage
rates for decorators. We feel that
our trade needs this more than any
thing else, and that large part of
our continual difficulties would auto
matically disappear if we had uni
formity of wages, rates and condi-
tions.
With a comparison Of prices and
wages paid at the different plants, we
would like each group of gilders to
work out a uniform price list. Then
in the near future we plan to hold a
meeting and ask representatives from
each plant to attend, where we will
adopt a uniform price list to be sub
mitted to the national committee, and
if necessary, taken up at the coming
convention and conference.
Local &C will be glad to hear from
each local and also from individual
gilders and liners on the subject.

Court Orders Payment of $3.50, ,OO0

New York City-An injunction di-

Knitted Outwear Garment Industry
to pay more than $25O,000 as back
wages to nearly 10000 home workers
from Maine to Tennessee has been
signed by Federal Court Judge Ed
ward A. Conger. 1t provides that the
defendants stop the alleged practice
Of evading the Wages and Hours Law
by making it appear that people who
make knitted goods at home for them
have lost the status of employees and
instead are independent manufacture
ers." The government charged that
the defendants paid home workers
piece work rates and not the legal
rate Of 25 cents an hour.

Brazil 10 Pay Debts;
Il Exports Increase
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO, March 23.-
Foreign Minister Oswaldo Aranha
said today in statement upon his
return from Washington that re-
sumption of payment of Brazirs
debts to the United States depended
upon an increase in Brazilian ex-
ports and monetary surpluses.
Mr.. Aranha reiterated he was "in
principle for payment of public
debts" but added, II always sub
ordinate that moral obligation Of
payment to material capacity to
do it"
Everything depends upon possible
capacity to pay he said.
An agreement was signed in WASH
ington March 8 for liberal extern
sion of credit to Brazil.
Although the statement seemed
slightly at variance with the letter
to Secretary Hull which declared
lit was decided to resume payment
of interest and amortization July l, -
under the temporary agreement
some observers believed settlement
might be worked out with the bond
holders in the next three months.
Some political circles are under
stood to have opposed resumption
OF the payments on the external
debts, of which 1857 ,0O0,O 900 is due
creditors in the United States. Some
newspaper comments in Rio de
Janeiro have been critical of the
Washington accord.

that all proposed substitutes be dis

not produce but which the Nation
might need in certain types of

1887. The great majority of farm
