that an almost unbearable weight

Pete Mason came across the hang

stopped in front of Cords. and for

at one another.

WDl: URGES FULL
PARDON FOR BILLINGS

New (WDL)-Governor Earl
Warren of California has been asked
by the Workers Defense league to do
all in his power to help secure par
don for Warren K Billings, victim of
the 1916 Predaredness day bombing
frameup. A petition for Billings, par
don will shortly go to the governor
who will refer it to the state supreme
court.
In letter to the governor, WDL
Chairman Aron S. Gilmartin said
your action to secure a full pardon
for Billings will help to correct the
grave injustice committed by the state
of California in the Mooney-Billings
case"
Billings, together with Tom Mooney
who died shortly after his release,
were convicted on evidence later
proved to be perjured. A prolonged
labor campaign finally brought about
their release in 1910. They had served
23 years of their life sentence.
Among those requesting full par
don is James F. Brennan, the lawyer
who handled the states case against
Mooney and Billings 29 years ago.

source of oil in the Far East, and its

The State university has contracted
to lease so houses from the Federal
Public Housing administration for war
veteran use, Tom c. Swearingen, uni

nounced.
The insulated plywood structures
will be moved here from Richland
Wash, probably during the middle
of November, although a definite time
has not been set, Swearingen said.
Partly furnished and consisting of
living room, kitchenette, bath and
shower and one, two and three bed
rooms, the houses will be brought by
truck to various universities and col
leges which have applied for the
buildings.
The FPHA will deliver some 500
houses at the same time to schools

disclosed. The structures formerly
were used by war workers at Rich

US. HOUSING EXHIBIT
lin SOVIET UNION

An exhibit of American prefabricat
ed housing was attended by thousands
of Moscow citizens a few months ago
With 100000 of their homes de
stroyed by the Nazis the Soviets are
greatly interested in quick methods
of housing construction. Consisting
chiefly of photographs and small
display of materials, the exhibit was
arranged by the Architects Committee
of the National Council of American
Soviet Friendship and VOKS (Society
for Cultural Relations with Foreign
Countries-a Soviet organization.)
Speaking in praise of the exhibit,
Academician Lev Rudnev, Soviet ar
chitect, said: "These developments
will be of great help to us and we
shall employ American experience to
a great extent. One of the prin-
ciples of prefabricated housing en-
ployed by the Americans is highly i'm
portant and that is the utilization of
local sources of building materials and
modification of design depending on
the climatic conditions"

RAISE in
Minimum
WAGE NEEDED

Philadelphia, Sept 81 = Farmers
cannot hope for an adequate postwar
market for their products unless sub
standard wages are eliminated, Donald
Henderson, president of the CLIO Food
Tobacco and Agriculture Workers
union declared today. Lifting the
minimum wage level to SIS cents an
hour is an indispensable part of the
full employment program" he said
Adequate pay for the million Amer
lean workers now earning less than
65 cents an hour will help to assure
Jobs for all and to maintain farm
prosperity"
Hearings on the Pepper bill
IS 1349), which would amend the fair
labor standards act to raise the mini
mum wage to 65 cents per hour are
scheduled to open before the senate
education and labor committees this
week. Eta will join the scores of
other organizations testifying in be-
half of the bill.
More than 100000 of the 100000
workers employed in the food and to-
bacco industries exclusive of meat
packing) are now earning less than
IS cents an hour. By raising the mini
mum wage to IS cents, these 100000
will earn only $3.50 per year-less
than the $1,621 needed for family of
four according to the bare mainte-
nance standards set by the U. S. gov
eminent.
Workers in processing plants
fruit, vegetable and fish canneries,
cotton congresses and cotton oil mills,
etc.-also urge the elimination of sea-
sonal exemptions from the hours pro-
visions of the fair labor standards
act. AS it now stands, the act fails
to guarantee the workers in these in
dustries time-and-a-half pay for over
time
Food and other processing workers
do not object to working overtime
during the seasonal peaks-in fact,
they welcome the opportunity for adj
ditional earnings-but they do want
to receive the same guarantee of ex-
ira payment for extra-long hours that
is an accepted practice in other in
dustries.
How will 65 cents minimum wage
and elimination of seasonal hours ex-
emptions affect the farmer? Will a
raise in the wage standards Of a mil
lion agricultural processing workers
mean lower prices paid to farmers by
the food and tobacco professors? Def
initely not.
The food processing and tobacco in
dustries have emerged from the war
with deep cushion of profits. In the
food processing industry, corporation
profits rose from $3.50 million in 1889
to more than 81 billion in 1943 (before
taxes)-an increase of almost 200 per-
cent. Tobacco industry profits in
creased by more than one third in the
same period.
"Our industries can afford to provide
both-decent wages for its employees,
and guaranteed prices at a decent
return to farmers" Mr. Henderson
stated.
when the farmer comes to town,
he wants good prices for his products,
market for all that he produces, and
assurance of a continuing stable econ
omy.
when the worker goes to market,
he wants to be able to afford all the
milk, vegetables and meat his family
needs.
''How are we both going to achieve
this? The answer must be: Full en-
ployment-and a IS cents minimum
wage"

PROVINCES
RETURN TO
SOVIET UNION

Secretary of State Byrnes recently
announced that an understanding has
been reached at Yalta whereby the
Soviet Union would regain the south
ern part of Sakhalin and the Kuriles
What this means for the Soviet UnioT
was indicated by Stain in his VI
speech on September when he said
in part:
{" from now on (southern SAX
hahn and the Kuriles) will not serve
as a means for isolating the Soviet
Union from the ocean and as base
for Japanese attack on our Far East
but as a means of direct communica
ton of the Soviet Union with the
ocean and as base for the defense
of our country against Japanese ag
gression.
"Our Soviet people did not spare
its strength or its labor for the sake
of victory. We have lived through
hard years From now on we can con
slider our country safe from the threat
of German invasion in the west and
Japanese invasion in the east"
Under Tsarist rule Sakhalin was de-
scribed as the Land of Misery and
Tears" by Russian prisoners who were
exiled to this most dreaded of penal
colonies. Besides jailers and prisoners
the population included the remnants
of the native Gliyaks and Orochens,
hunting and fishing peoples who UNI
til Soviet rule in 1925 did not own
a single horse or COW. The convicts
worked two pits of coal but not
enough was dug to keep their prisons
warm. Released prisoners were al
lowed to settle on the land and take
up farming although they were not
supplied with equipment.
Before the war Sakhalin imported
most of it's foodstuffs. In 1941 state
owned farms turned in 500 more po-
tatoes and 1900 more vegetables than
during the preceding year. Tobacco,
flax, buckwheat and pumpkins were
planted on the island for the first

for fraction of the cost because pro-
tected groups demand it? Are our
men going to be satisfied to return to
a land for which they suffered and
paid so much and big corporations
reap harvests of wealth by their free
dom from draft and see said free
enterprise" reap fortunes for which
they as common people must join the
rest of us, the taxpayers, in replacing,
and which was taken by industrial
strike measures in time of extreme
national need? Does free enterprise"
mean one thing to the individual citi-
zen and another thing to law created
groups? Let us ask the soldiers what
kind of freedom they look for and
fought for under our draft system?

Dean Line has been granted years
leave of absence from the university
and will teach marketing for from 7
to IL months overseas.
He first was called about the as
signment on Aug. 9, after which time
he fulfilled processing requirements
and made necessary arrangements
with War department officials.
The university dean will make his
residence in Europe for second time.
In 1914, he was graduate student
at Fryberg, Germany.
Dr. G. D. Shallenberger of the State
university physics department also is
on leave at one of the three Euro
pean university centers at Shriven-
ham, England. The third center is To-
Gated in Florence, Italy.
Only leading instructors from Sc
