PROTEST RELEASE ofc L W. W/s
A state wide protest by American
Lesion posts is proposed against the
pi oposed parole of six Industrial
Worker’s of the World now serving
25-year sentences in the Washington
State Penitentiary for the shooting
of World War Veterans at Centralis
Armistice Day, 1919.
Grant Ware, adjutant of Spokane
Post in a letter to Jesse Drain,
State Adjutant, announced that ev
ery Legion Post in the State will
be asked to take action to prevenl
possible parole. Local legionaires
plan to confer with G. B. Clausen,
member of the parole board during
this month when objections will De
made
Ed. Note.—Considerable feeling
has been engendered against the Le
gion because of the Centralia fra
cas. Alaskans, who were in Cen
tralia at the time, are not convinced
of the entire innocence of the Le
gion in the matter. The leaders went
to Centralia to “clean up” and to
“mop up” those I. W. W.'s who were
within their constitutional rights in
objecting to the war and so express
ed themselves. Warren Grimm,
U. of W. footbal star was killed and
other casualties resulted. The lead
ers of the I. W. W. who defended
their hall and what they believed to
be their rights were arrested, tried
and sentenced to long terms in pri
son.
They have served long enough |
now for troubles which were not of |
their seeking. The war for “world [
peace” was a misnomer. The I. W
W.’s were correct in their designa
tion of the war as a “capitalistic”
war which American soldiers carried
on to protect the “investments” of
Wall street.” Men on both sides,
Ar5es and German, have suffered
and paid plenty and aer still paying.
To carry on the hatreds of that war
is picayunishily un-American an.l
not in keeping of the country. The
Legion will bring greater credit up
on itself did it make effort to free
every man from prison who opposed
the idea of war and expressed him
self at the time as opposed to war.
Lincoln and Roosevelt in their own
times made far more severe criticism
of wars and far abler, than any I.
W. W. did or could, but they were
too big in the political affairs of the
nation so the “pay-triotic” could not
make war on them and bring them
to “justice” as in the case of the I.
W. W. of Centralia and other syn
dicalists.
They have paid plenty out of the
years of their lives and it is time
that the Legion forget that war
which was foistered upon this na
tion by the “pay-triotic profiteers. I

“BOY WOUNDED WHEN PLAY
SHOOTS GUN ACCIDENTLY”
A boy’s hunting trip almost ended
disastrously yesterday when a bull
et from a .22 rifle discharged acci
dentally by Bobby Mitehell, hit Eu
gene Uotala, who was standing
about ten feet away. The bullet en
te.ed the boy’s left cheek, passed
beneath the ear and emerged from
the back of the neck. An examina
tion made by Dr. J. H. Romig dis
closed that the wound was not se
rious, although had the bullet taken
only a slightly different course it
might have resulted in the boy’s
death. i
Hunting had been temporarily
abandoned for swimming and Eu
gene was preparing to dive into the
water when the rifle was discharged
He returned home at once and was
taken to Dr. Romig’s office for treat
ment. Except for the loss of consid
erable blood he is apparently none
the worse for the experience.—Au
chora ge Times.
It is just such mishandling of
gur s of small calibre that received
the disapproval of the local council
at a recent meeting. Some parents
have taken offense at the request
that stores refuse to sell their chil
dicn ammunition unless through the
parent and when the shooting of
such guns will be under the super
vision of the parent.
It is a too oft repeated story—“J
didn’t know the gun was loaded”—
but no amount of sorrow or regrets
• :an recompense for life taken or
for ugly scars which may be carried
through life.

VENEZUELA’S POSTAGE RATE
DELAYS FIRST CLASS MAIL
Venexuela is the only country in
the Americas which requires more
than two cents an ounce or frac
tion for first class mail, the Assist
ant Trade Commissioner at Caracas,
Frederick D. Grab, has reported, ad
vising the Department of Commerce
that frequent delays in delivery of
letters from the United States caus
ed by insufficient postage.
Venezuela, the only non-membe”
» f the Pan-American Postal Union
in \merica, requires five cent* an
ounce or fraction on all first class
»nail from the United States. Much
mail is said to arrive in that coun
try from the United States with only
a tw^ cent stamp to pay charges,
and is therefore held up for postage
due.
