He was Valery V. Obolensky-Os sinsky, vice-chairman of the Soviet state planning commission and di rector of the Soviet statistical and! accounting organization. Speaking before a meeting arrang ed by the International Industrial Relations Institute, he traced the operations of the second plan up to November of last year, from the time of its inception in 1933. The first five-year plaan was started in 1928 and Was ended after four and one-quarter years ni 1932. On the material side, the Russian peasant and factory worker can look forward to more and better; food, to more and better clothing, including such items as silk stock-! ings for the women workers, Ossin-| sky said: . Progress on the side of I culture and social activity is shown by the fact that Russia will intro duce a system compulsory, univer | sal high school education, for the I first time in any country of the world, he continued. Social Advances Cited On the social side, he said, the trend is shown by the establishment of much larger numbers of workers' clubs, cinemas and theaters, and the’ consequent stepping up of the pro-; duction of such articles as pianos ] and phonographs. Meanwhile, he said, the industrial ization of the country, is going for ward almost exactly as planned, the development of the chemical in dustry is progressing, and the es tablishment of collective farms and of the industries to provide tractors and other farm equipment is mov ing forward rapidly. Russia by 1937 will be second only to the United States in several indus tries, including the production of steel, he predicted. Russia Against War Because of these things, he de clared, Russia must be regarded as aligning herself definitely with the forces favoring greater economic co- j operation among the nations and opposing war. Russia has nothing to gain and everything to lose by a war, he declared.

Switzer with a crew of men, start ed the road work and one day, in the course of digging away a hill side along the road, three of the men employed by the contractor uncov ered what appeared to be the start af a promising vein. > Nothing was'done with the find then, but this year Switzer and the trhee men took machinery to the Seattle Fur Exchange SALES Every Month In The Year Auction Sales Dates 1935 r ' January 16 February 13 March 13 April 10 May 15 June 12 July 10 August 14 September 11 October 9 November 13 December 11 ...

The tunnel now extends 130 feet and the vein is partially un covered. The last assay showed 157 ounces of silver, 15 per cent copper and $3.50 in gold to the ton. Another tunnel, about 100 feet lower, has been started by Switzer and his three associates, Louis Pop pisch, C. E. Howie and Swan Nelson -Four miles from Switzer’s digg ings, at the head of Lackawanna Gulch, is another mine—a proven producer—that is being worked by Clyde Balkwill, of Leadville, Col., an “old-timer.” • Balkwill works his mine, the Eur eka, which lies on the eastern slope of the pass, every day and averages from«$75 to $150 of gold to the ton. The mine still is in its infancy and improves with each new depth. A burro train freights the ore to the highway, where it is reloaded in trucks and taken to the Golden Cy cle mill in Colorado Springs.
