SOVIET RECOGNITION.
Demands that Great Britain and
her Allies in the war make peace
with the Soviet government of Rus
sia will be submitted to the annual
conference of the Labor party, to
be held at Scarborough in the latter
part of June. The independent La
bor party, which is affiliated with
the Federated Labor party, has sug
gested a resolution for adoption in
the convention which proposes not
only recognition of the Soviet gov
err.ment, but that fraternal greet-;
ings be sent to the Russian Social
ist republic. Another propose.' calls
for an international conference of,
labor parties throughout the i
world and requests that the Rus-;
sian government would lie expressly i
asked to send delegates to England.
The Hampstead Labor party ha
given notice that it will propose a
motion that the Labor party secede
from the Second Internationale.
The Birmingham central offers a
resolution declaring that the Allied
peace treaties grossly violate the
professed objects for which the gov
ernments of the Allied and Associ-1
ated nations entered the war.
The Glasgow Trades and Labor |
council suggests the adoption of a
resolution in favor of the cancella- i
tion o: the war debts ot the Allied ;
nations and advocates an interna-,
tiona! loan and the establishment
of machinery for a world organiza
1
tion of raw materials in order to
restore European production.
The Independent Labor party asks
for democratic control of foreign
policy and establishment of interna
tional standards of labor conditions.’
It requests that the convention put
itself or. record as opposed to a”,
militarist and imperialist projects
and programs.
Eight resolutions have been sent
in by English labor parties dealing
with Ireland. Some of these call
for self-determination in that coun
try and w ithdraw al of British troops. (
The Northwest Hull Labor party
asks the convention to express dis
approval of the government’s policy
in Ireland and to arrange for mass
meetings all over the country to
agitate for a policy of “hands off
Ireland."
Other resolutions raise the ques-1
tions of direct action, nationaliza
tion of the railways and public own
ership and control of the liquor
trade.
KENNECOTT OUTLOOK
REVIEWED BY BIRCH
President Stephen Birth of the
Kennett corporation said, in a state
ment made in the Eas* recently,
that the producing cost of copper
is under 10 cents a pound, com
pared with around 9 cents last year.
Questioned as to the probable life
of Kennecott, Mr. Birch stated that
in deep mines such as the Kenne
cott it was difficult to figure the
life of a property, but that there
is more ore in sight now than was
originally figured on. The corpora
tion is opening up new large bodies
in Alaska of the same character as
the 60 percent high-grade ore first
discovered, and from present indica
j tions the ore looks as good as it
did five years ago.
Speaking about the dividend out
look, Mr. Birch said that any in
crease in disbursement depends, of
course, upon the copper market.
Kennei^tt has not as yet received
any income from Braden. Demand
for copper is springing up again and
Kennecott is in a position where it
can increase production when the
proper time arrives.
Kennecott controls the Mother
Lode Coalition mines, in addition to
owning Braden and approximately
38 percent of Utah Copper's out- [
standing stock. Braden has a life j
of about 70 years at a maximum
production and Utah about 28 years.

HIGH LOS LILING
WARSAW.—Advices from Mos
,cow state that in March there was a
prreat dearth of nearly all kinds of
medicines in the Russian city and
that many drug stores had been
compelled to ,close. Scarcity of
wood and coal was also reported,
the information received here indi
cating that numerous frame houses
and various other buildings of wood
'were being demolished to be used
as fuel.
A Pole who came from Moscow
within the last few weeks said that,
while food was terribly expensive,
there was plenty for those who had
rubles, which were worth, estimated
in American money, a fraction more
than one cent. A shave cost 75
rubles and soap 800 rubles a pound.
Cigarettes were worth about 70 ru
bles each and matches 100 rubles a
box.
Horse meat sold for 350 rubles
a pound, beef bringing 650 rubles
for the same weight. Pork was
1.000 rubles a pound. Black bread
retailed at 350 rubles a pound, but
ter 2,500, and fats 2.000 a pound.
Sugar brought 1.500 rubles a
pound when obtainable, and salt
was nearly always to be had at 750
rubles a pound.
Clothing for men and women was
so expensive that the poorer classes
either made their own suits or wore
patched garments which they had
owned for years.
