THE PLIGHT OF UKRAINE
Seventeen different governments
have been upset and supplanted
with entire changes of authority
in the Ukraine since 1917, accord
ing to the Vollia Rossii, a Russian
daily paper published at Prague by
Social-Revolutionists. The revolu
tions, it is said, have been due to
the struggles of the peasantry
against the successive rule of the
Germans, the Cossack hetman, the
land barons and, finally, the Bol
sheviki.
Ater telling about the revolts of
the Little Russians against “au
thority imposed upon them without
their consent,’’ the article says:
“A radical change has occurred
in the psychology of the peasant
masses, a change which may be
termed ‘psychologic stavism’. It is
as if the souls of the people were
changed back to the times of the
16th. and 17th. centuries, the times
of the Tartar invasions, the slave
markets of Constantinople in the
struggle for the right to live or,
the ground drenched with the blood
of their forefathers.
“Starving North Russia has sent
forth scores of thousands of soviet
employes and bag speculators (per
sons dealing in foodstuffs carried
in bags on their backs) to the fer
tile Ukraine provinces, in quest of
food, while about 200,000 soviet
troops are stationed in the cities,
towns and hamlets of the Ukraine.
“Many families from North Russia
are migrating to the south to es
cape death by starvation. At the
same time, the soviet authorities
have taken steps to mobilize the
male peasant population and send
them away to the north and to the
Ural, in an effort to combat the
rebellion of the peasantry. The
cruelties of the Austro-German
period of occupation are as nothing
compared with the horrors of the
soviet activities in the LRa-aine.”
The earlier cruelties toward the
peasant rebels, such as flogging,
confiscation of farm implements
and depletion of their resources,
has been followed, the article says,
“by punitive expeditions, wholesale
executions, hangings and shootings."
„ The peasants in reprisal are re
ported as ambushing Bolshevik de
tachments, many of which “dis
appear without a trace." Cases are
on record, the newspaper states,
where “communists have been bur
ied alive by the score."
It, sometimes occurs to The News
that Alaska and Ireland are in much
the same boat. Our chief difficulty
is that we are unable to agree among
ourselves upon those things vital to
the progress of the territory, ^with
the result that our Government is
at a loss to know how best to aid
us.
Doubtless realizing that the time
is rapidly approaching when Big
Business will be compelled to share
some of the profits with labor, Judge
Gary would pass the buck to Uncle
Sam, leaving the Government to
deal, single-handed with the labor
union problem.
AMERICANS NOT SAVERS
In spite of the fact that 28.9 per
cent of the world’s savings are in
the United States and that the av
erage depositor in this country has
a greater sum to his credit than his
European neighbor, only eight per
cent of the total number of the
world's savers are Americans.
Authority for this statement is
the Saving Banks association of the
State of New York, which has made
l
an extensive investigation of sav
ings banks throughout the world. In
proportion to population, a number
| of foreign countries exceed the
I United States in numbers of de
i positors.
! ‘'European people, through cent
j ries of struggle for mere existence.”
explains the executive manager of
i the association, "have been trained
to the most rigid economy, while
Americans have found life a com
paratively easy matter. The average
American family, until quite recent

In France, according to the asso
ciation ofiicial, one out of every
five inhabitants has a savings ac
count. In his opinion, the economy
of the French people has been their
protection against the “death thrusts
of centuries.”
Charles Brown, of the .firm of
Brown & Hawkins, who recently re
turned to Alaska from the East,
j brought confirmation of the pre
viously published report of the for
mation of the new Brown & Haw
kins syndicate with an initial cap
ital of a half-million dollars. The
new corporation now holds options
on several established business and
i banking concerns from Ketchikan
to Kuskokwim, including Juneau and
Cordova. It is the intention of the
company to branch out all over the
North in merchandising.* fur, bank
ing and transportation, with a view
of ultimately on the American side
what the Hudson Bay company was'
on the Canadian side.
It is estimated that fifteen gold
| lode mines and five prospects were
j operated in Alaska in 1920, produc
ing about 3,270,000 tons of ore.
from which $4,360,000 worth of
gold and 106,000 ounces of silver
were recovered. The output in 1919
i was 3,262,573 tons of ore, contain
| ing gold to the value of $4,392,237,
; and 108,691 ounces of silver.
