(Special to The Dally Worker) ELY, Nevada.—(By Mail.)—Out of Fallon yesterday, crossed the Great Desert and abont 50 miles from nowhere the engine of the car I was in busted, and there I was in the desert—plenty of water, but no food. Fortunately & passing ‘auto took me on to @ ranch 35 miles further, where I had dinner. That ranch, the gateway to a huge mountain, the summit over 7600 feet high, which I afterward crossed, should be in the movies.

This morning I had a chance to talk to some men going to a road camp to work and gaye them some of the Little Red Library books, I'm trying to get a ride to Eureka, 80 miles, which I want to make to- night. And the copper mining town of Ely, 158 miles more, I expect to make Monday night. It’s a strenuous life, but I feel fine. Most of the time the weather has been cold and stormy, but is fine today, Am expecting good meetings at Ogden and Salt Lake City. It will seem strange fo see towns and cities again, Here they only have mail} three times a week. I've been away. from all railroads since I left Reno, They have kerosene lamps here and many other primitive things, Must now try to catch a ride, I haven't paid one cent for fares and don’t intend to, even bus fares. They charge §1.50 a night for all the luxuries (7) of these camps. Am glad I'll pass thru Guggenheim’s territory at Bly. I'll plaster it with DAILY WORKERS.

SCHEDEL Must Leave Starving F amily Behind The brief of |. E. Ferguson, attor- ney for John C. Schedel ordered de- ported by the. Department of Labor, addressed to James J. Davis, secretary of labor, Is @ noteworthy document. In showlng cause why Schedel should not be deported, Freguson challenges Davis to look upon deportation In a different tight than was previously done by the department of labor under pressure of the hue and cry ralsed by the Department of Justice during the days of the “Palmer Red Raids.” Furgeson safd that the deportations of 1920 were far better explained than he could ever hope to do in Louis F. Post's book, “The Deportation Del- irtum of 1920,” and asked that a cer-[ tain chapter of that book be con- sidered part of the brief. Post, by the way, was assistant sec- retary of labor during this delirium of 1920 and was forced to sign deporta- tion warrants and orders with which he was in complete disagreement. While this wartime legislation still obtains, Ferguson points out that its strict enforcement at this late date is needless. Schedel was originally deported to Germany in 1920, Schedel left a wife and three children in distressing cir- cumstances. In 1922 he made an. ab- ortive attempt to return to his family and was quickly re-deported from Nor- folk, W. Virginia. He returned for the second time and was arrested in Chi- cago in October 1924, charged with criminal vee of the immigration law. Ferguson points out that the De- partment of Justice has dropped the criminal charge of illegal entry against Schedel and appeals to the Department of| Labor to follow the precedent, taking into particular con- sideration the fact that Schedel has a large family in grave circumstances and. is unable to take them to Ger- many with him for lack of funds.

Protest Tyranny of Military Rule of Virgin Isles WASHINGTON, June 12.—(FP)— Captain Philip Williams, the navy governor of the Virgin Islands by ar- bitrary appointment, has dissolved the native advisory body, the St. Croix Council, in a fashion which the Civil Liberties Union has protested to Pres- ident Coolidge as “high handed.” Williams, who had already antagon- ized native sentiment, revived an old Danish law in order to get rid of the council becausesthat body had refused to accept at once the credentials of certain new appointees of his own. This is the second dissolution which has been ordered by American naval governors during the eight years of “temporary” government of the islands by the navy; during more than a century of Danish rule the order was invoked only once. Canal Loses Oil Business. WASHINGTON—(FP)—A decrease of 40 per cent in the shipments of oil by tankers thru the Panama canal, in the 10 months ending April 80, 1925, as compared with the coresponding 10 months in the preceding year, is reported by the Panama Canal official bulletin, The western fields are no longer producing a big surplus for shipment to the eastern market, the bulletin said. Aside from oil tankers, the canal business for the 10 months shows a gain in tonnage and a two per cent increase in the number of ships hand- led. Tolls amount to $18,035,441, a decrease of $2,590,000. — Every sub you get during Red Week of June 15 to 21 is a sub to “make anyther Communist.” 4 : DEAL WITH RAILROADS TO RAISE PROFITS; LABOR FOE IN CHARGE), By LAURENCE TODD (Federated Press Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, June 12—-(FP)—.Henry Strickland, secretary of the Rail- way Mail Association, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, de- nounces the greed of the railroad companies in the United States in demand- ing and securing continually higher rates for carrying the mails, while the service they render the public is steadily getting worse. His analysis of the danger in this condition, issued in Washington shows that Postmaster General New and his predecessor, Work, have carried on the ruinous policy UNION HEAD DENOUNCES COOLIDGE established by Burleson in the Wilson administration. The pledges of betterment contained in the Republican platform of 1920 were betrayed as soon as the repub- + licans took control. Foe of Unions Joseph Stewart, attorney for the postoffice department, who directs the fight against the postal workers’ unions thru democratic and repub- lican administration alike, is the of- ficial who caused the change, in November, 1916, from the weight basis to the cubic space basis of payment to the railroads for carrying the mail. At the time the railroads did not understand that they would make more out of the game by the new ar- rangement. They had drawn $61,244 667 for transporting the mails in the fiscal year ending June 30 1916. But for the year ending June 30, 1926, con- gress has appropriated $112,250,000 to be paid to the railroads for the same purpose—though the service this year involves only 1% per cent more car-miles of haulage than in 1916. The interstate commerce commission has steadily granted higher rates to the raliroads for this job. “Theoretically” says Strickland, “the department, through Stewart, is presumed to fight and to prevent such increases; but the railroads usually is capable of making a vigorous fight succeed, just the same, That Stewart is capable of making a vigorous fight when he desires to do so, was shown beyond a doubt in his resourceful and bitter opposition to the postal em- ployes in their legislative campaign for living wages.” Service Goes Down While the cost of rail transporta- tion of mail has gone up, in the past ten years, service has gone down. Between Nov. 1, 1916 and June 30, 1920, Burleson cut the distrbiution service of mails en route from 194,- 757,683 car miles annually—prorated on a 60-foot car basis—to 144,769,658 car miles, or more than 25 per cent reduction. The republican campaign textbook of 1920 declared that this policy of abandonment of service was destroy- ing the efficiency of the postoffice de- partment by curtailment of service”, and insisted on “operation for service rather than for profit,” Yet between June, 1920, and June, 1924, a further curtailment of 13,383,901 car-miles has been enforced, Officials of the department, seeking to show a “profit” in the service un- der the space-rate system, use fewer trains and send mail less often, there- by delaying delivery and slowing down communication and business throughout the country, On through railroad lines, Strick- land declares, the present mail service is bad enough, but on branch lines it is not much better than in stage- coach days. Frequently, 24 hours is required to carry a letter between postoffice that are only a few miiles. apart, by the cumbersome “closed pouch” method of cutting expenses.
