# Stopping a War/Chapter 8

8. International Complications
Doriot then pointed out the danger of a world war arising out of the struggle for North Africa. Italy was anxious. Spain was uneasy.
"Britain also is not welcoming your military activity with enthusiasm, When the English feel that the southern shore of the Strait of Gibraltar might fall into our hands, they will become anxious. What will you give them for their silence? …
"Do not forget also that by your action you are angering the whole Moslem world. … Even as far as India a great movement to help the Riffians financially has been organized. In trying to increase your prestige in a little corner of Morocco you have shown your true face as the oppressors of 20 millions of Moslems, and raised the other Moslems against you. (Applause from the extreme left. Lively manifestations on many sides).
"The President.—These words are not admissible. France has never oppressed any people. (Loud applause.)
"M. Franklin-Bouillon.—This is abominable language.
"M. Barthelemy Robaglia.—You strike the French soldiers in the back.
"M. Franklin-Bouillon.—It is a shame!
"Numerous voices.—To the door!
"From the extreme left.—Down with war!
"Renaud Jean.—Those who carry on colonial expeditions are the assassins. (Applause from the extreme left. Protests from the other benches.)
"From various sides.—Censure him! Censure him!
"The President.—I have already protested, as was my duty, against the words which M. Doriot has spoken. …
"Doriot.—You have spoken of the soldiers from our colonies who died for France during the war. We also have the right to speak of them, These soldiers came from distant places to fight for a cause which was not their own! (Applause from the extreme left. Lively protests from other benches.) …
​"Doriot.—At the moment when I was interrupted I was about to say that at that time you made them promises of democratic reforms,—of the right to vote. (Applause on the extreme left.)
"M. Gaston Thompson.—No! No!
"M. Edouard de Warren.—That is false!
"Doriot.—These promises, made to Algerians and Tunisians, are not being kept today. Movements of disillusionment and antagonism against you have sprung up in these countries. Very largely they are dissatisfied with your country. …
"The President.—You should say 'our' country. (Applause.)
"Doriot.—They are dissatisfied with your country, governed by your class, and they are thinking of giving themselves a somewhat greater freedom than you are willing to allow them. … This little people, which has long struggled to liberate itself from foreign domination, needs a breathing space. They are trying to organize their country. … They have already begun.
"M. Pierre-Etienne Flandin.—Yes, with cannon.
"Doriot.—Cannon that you have sold them, perhaps. The Riffs are waiting for a moment of peace to recommence this work. They would gladly receive the news of peace negotiations. …
"During twenty years Morocco has cost 12,000 lives, according to the official statement. The present war will devour thousands more. … While soldiers die and the expropriated natives suffer, the bankers are making scandalous profits, and some dividends are up to 80 per cent! …"
# Stopping a War/Chapter 17

17. Working Class Action against War
The decision of the French workers to adopt these class conscious tactics marks a very important change in the attitude of the working class of Europe toward war. Heretofore, the European workers have been satisfied to carry on general propaganda during peace times and then, when war did break out, to fight patriotically for "victory" and "glory." Such tactics imply the acceptance of the economic situation out of which wars grow, and merely oppose each particular war as it arises without any effort to get back to its causes or to prevent it at the source.
The French workers who organized the campaign against the ​Moroccan War of 1925 decided to fight the economic system primarily and the war only incidentally. Their campaign was not so much a campaign against war as it was a campaign against bankers, profiteers and concessionaires whose activities make war inevitable.
Class conscious working class action against war may take several forms. First, there is anti-war and anti-militarist propaganda which points out the causes of war and shows how owners profit while workers pay. Second, there is the propaganda in the shops and in the industries. This may include anything from a boycott or a refusal to handle military stores to a general strike whose object is the paralysis of the government in its effort to conduct the war. Third, there is the propaganda in the army and navy. This propaganda may aim merely to undermine the morale of the soldiers and destroy their confidence in the government, or its object may be mutiny and aggressive refusal of service on the part of the enlisted men.
Anti-war propaganda can be carried on legally so long as the government permits it. Political boycotts and strikes are effective only when the workers are thoroughly united. A general mutiny on the part of the army and navy presupposes a revolutionary situation of a very intense character. The leaders of the French movement steered a course which involved neither a general strike nor a general mutiny but which was aimed to undermine both industrial and military capitalist morale and to lead to fraternization with their fellow workers in the Riff.
# Stopping a War/Chapter 6

6. Propaganda in the Chamber of Deputies
The public struggle against the Riff War has been actively waged in the Chamber of Deputies. The extreme Left bloc and their supporters rose again and again to denounce the war, to explain the economic causes which lay behind it, and to demand an immediate peace with the Riff. On May 27, 28, and 29, Doriot, Cachin, and Berthon particularly distinguished themselves by the effectiveness with which they challenged the position of the Government.
An idea of the vigor with which the French Communist Deputies attacked the war makers may be gathered from the Journal Officiel. At the sitting of May 27, 1925, for instance, Doriot pointed out that Abd-el-Krim had been in Paris in 1923 buying arms. Berthon had met him in Paris at the time and at Doriot's suggestion he stated the fact to the Chamber. He was able to give the names of those with whom Abd-el-Krim had dealt, of the bank that financed the transaction, and to refer to the text of the contract under which the arms were secured. These facts, Doriot said, showed that in 1923 French firms were supplying Abd-el-Krim with arms; that the French Government was aware of the facts; that Abd-el-Krim was permitted to come to Paris on a passport officially vised, and that all this was done with the full knowledge that the arms would be used against Spain. As a matter of fact, these arms were now being used against France.
Abd-el-Krim, Doriot continued, had been trying for two years to come to an understanding with France. He had been accused of aggression against France. Quite the contrary; he had made every effort to establish peaceful relations with the French Government. To these overtures the French Government had refused to listen. If it was possible to talk with Abd-el-Krim on the subject of munitions in 1928, why was it not possible to talk on the subject of peace in 1924?
There was a very good reason indeed for the difference between the two cases. That reason was the intervention of French high finance. They wanted to sell arms in 1923. They wanted to get possession of the Riff minerals in 1924.

TRIBUTE TO GENIUS AND LABOR.
EPES SARGENT.
The camp has had its day of song;
The sword, the bayonet, the plume.
Have crowded out of rhyme too long
The plow, the anvil, and the loom.
O, not upon our tented fields
Are freedom’s heroes bred alone.
The training of the workshop yields
More heroes true than war has known!
Who drives the bolt, who shapes the steel,
May, with the heart as valiant smite,
As he who sees a foeman reel
In blood before his blow of might!
The skill that conquers space and time.
That graces life, that lightens toil.
May spring from courage more sublime
Than that which makes a realm its spoil.
Let Labor, then, look up and see
His craft no path of honor lacks;
The soldier’s rifle yet shall be
Less honored than the woodman’s ax.
Let art his own appointment prize.
Nor deem that gold or outward hight
Can compensate the worth that lies
In tastes that breed their own delight.
And may the time draw nearer still.
When men this sacred truth shall heed,
That, from the thought and from the will,
Must all that raises man proceed.
Though pride should hold our calling low.
For us shall duty make it good;
And we from truth to truth shall go.
Till life and death are understood.
# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Christmas/Santa Claus Myths

SANTA CLAUS MYTHS.
From Department of Public Instruction.
The Christmas messenger, so dear to the hearts of all children, takes different names and assumes varied forms in different countries.
Our own name, "Santa Claus," comes from St. Nicholas, the name dear to Hollanders; and in place of our stockings hung by the chimney, the Dutch children leave two little wooden shoes by the fireplace, firmly believing that the good old St. Nicholas will fill them with gifts.
In Russia, St. Nicholas is sometimes called "Father Christmas," and it is probable that the Santa Claus myth really originated in that country from the practice of a good old nobleman who, long, long ago, went about once a year distributing clothing, food, and toys to all the poor children he could find.
The Norwegian Santa is known as "Kristine," and the children leave candles burning in the windows to give her light.
In Belgium, on Christmas eve, the children put their wooden sabots, or shoes, on the window ledge, stuffing them full of oats and hay for the "Santa Claus pony;" in the early morning, when they run on tiptoe to look, finding the fodder all gone and the shoes brimming over with toys and sweetmeats, they clap their hands gleefully and think what fun it would be to wake in time to catch the pony munching his breakfast.
The French children generally believe that, while they sleep, the Christ-child comes down from the sky, accompanied by a band of angels bringing books and playthings. These gifts they find in the morning placed on both ends of the Christmas log. But in Alsace, the dispenser of Christmas gifts is supposed to be a lady robed in white, who has long yellow hair and a golden crown ornamented with tiny candles. She carries a basket of presents in one hand; a bell in the other; and a mysterious attendant, called Hans Trapp (of whom all children are afraid), always rides with her on the same donkey. It is customary for the children to place a bunch of hay behind the door for the donkey, and beside it a glass of wine for the "white lady" and Hans Trapp.
And so it is that all the world round happy children open their bright eyes very early each Christmas morning, their hearts filled with expectation of what the Christmas messenger has brought them.

# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Christmas/The Date of Christmas Day

CHRISTMAS DAY.
Everybody knows that Christmas Day falls on the 25th of December. Of course! So it does—now. But it did not always do so. In the early centuries of Christianity, the feast was kept up at various dates in the months of January, April, and May. For more than three hundred years, January 6th was Christmas day in the Eastern Church. The Abyssinians call June 21 Christmas day; while among the Armenians Christmas day has always been January 18, and so it is now; but since the middle of the fifth century Christians of both the Occident and Orient have generally agreed to celebrate the 25th of December.

# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Christmas/Some Christmas Customs

SOME CHRISTMAS CUSTOMS.
From Department of Public Instruction.
Many of our Christmas customs, such as the hanging of the mistletoe and decorating with holly, come from England, though some of the most beautiful usages are unpracticed by us.
One such custom is the gathering of the children about the fire on Christmas Eve (after they have played "blind man‘s buff" or "shoe the white mare" until weary) and there, amid the warm radiance of the great Yule-log, rehearsing the old, old story of the Christ-child in whose honor is all Christmas giving. For in England, be it said, Christmas is still Christ's Mass.
The singing of carols is another beautiful custom that still prevails in some parts of England, France, Germany, and Russia, where boys and girls go about singing Christmas songs beneath the windows of every house and receiving money in return, which they spend for Christmas goodies or articles more needed in their homes. In Russia, one of the singers carries a large star as the emblem of the light that brightens the universe.
The Christmas dinner of the birds is a pretty Norwegian custom. Every barn door or gable is decorated with a sheaf of grain fastened to a long pole, even the very poorest people managing to save a few stalks for their feathered pets, special dinner is also given the cattle on this day, because Christ was laid in a manger at his birth; and the Norwegian children believe that at midnight of Christmas-eve, all the cattle turn their faces inward the east and bow down in worship of Christ.
The Christmas festivities of Norway continue for thirteen days, during which time the people go about dressed in their gayest raiment, and every departing guest must partake of the strong Yule ale,
A quaint custom is practiced in Brittany, where the country people, young and old, go to midnight mass, each carrying a lantern. The poor old women of the parish await their arrival outside the church and are given the care of these lanterns, at close of the service receiving a piece of money as they return them to the owners. Another queer custom also practiced here is the bringing in at the Christmas dinner of a large cake containing a single bean. All the girls partake, and the one who ﬁnds the bean becomes queen of the festival. She chooses a king, and the royal pair are shown special honors throughout Christmas-tide.

# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Labor Day/Bonny Boy

HO! BONNY BOY.
WALTER M. HAZELTINE.
Ho! bonny boy, with cheek of brown,
In the river wading.
What the dreams within your head,
Slowly, slowly fading?
Vacation’s nearly gone, you say.
With school-time growing nearer.
And every moment of the day
Is growing sweetly dearer.
Slowly summer steals away,
Vacation joys are fading,
While every moment is so dear,
In the river wading.
Turtle sleeping on a log.
Sand-peep where the beach is;
Cherries growing in the sun,
Where the cat-bird screeches.
But the river, bonny boy.
Is not always sleeping;
There is work for it and you.
There is joy and weeping.
Time in summer for your fun,
Time to work in winter.
For the race is always won.
By the fleetest sprinter.
Ho! curly-head, this lesson learn,— The world is only seeming
To the boy who idly stands
And wastes the day in dreaming.
There’s a work for you somewhere,
And a way to follow;
There’s a joy for every care,
A hill for every hollow.
# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Labor Day/Free Labor

FREE LABOR.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Our Government was not established that one man might do with himself as he pleases, and with another man too. I say that, whereas God Almighty has given every man one mouth to be fed, and one pair of hands adapted to furnish food for that mouth, if anything can be proved to be the will of Heaven, it is proved by this fact, that that mouth is to be fed by those hands, without being interfered with by any other man who has also his mouth to feed and his hands to labor with. I hold, if the Almighty had ever made a set of men that should do all the eating and none of the work, he would have made them with mouths only and no hands; and if he had ever made another class that he intended should do all the work and none of the eating, he would have made them without mouths and with all hands.
# Sojourner Truth's Women's Rights Convention Speech (1851)

May I say a few words? Receiving an affirmative answer, she proceeded
I want to say a few words about this matter. I am a woman’s rights. I have as much muscle as any man, and can do as much work as any man. I have plowed and reaped and husked and chopped and mowed, and can any man do more than that? I have heard much about the sexes being equal; I can carry as much as any man, and can eat as much too, if I can get it. I am as strong as any man that is now.
As for intellect, all I can say is, if women have a pint and man a quart — why can’t she have her little pint full?
You need not be afraid to give us our rights for fear we will take too much, — for we can't take more than our pint’ll hold. The poor men seem to be all in confusion, and don't know what to do. Why children, if you have woman’s rights, give it to her and you will feel better. You will have your own rights, and they won't be so much trouble.
I can't read, but I can hear. I have heard the bible and have learned that Eve caused man to sin. Well if woman upset the world, do give her a chance to set it right side up again. The Lady has spoken about Jesus, how he never spurned woman from him, and she was right. When Lazarus died, Mary and Martha came to him with faith and love and besought him to raise their brother. And Jesus wept — and Lazarus came forth.
And how came Jesus into the world? Through God who created him and woman who bore him. Man, where is your part?
But the women are coming up blessed be God and a few of the men are coming up with them. But man is in a tight place, the poor slave is on him, woman is coming on him, and he is surely between a hawk and a buzzard.

# Star Lore Of All Ages/The Minor Constellations/Sextans

New York, London: G. P. Putnam's Sons, page 437
This is a modern asterism sometimes called "Urania's Sextant," and first appeared on the chart of Hevelius which was published in 1690.
This celestial Sextant is supposed to commemorate the sextant so successfully used by Hevelius in taking stellar measurements at Dantzig from 1658 to 1679.
The astronomer von Rheita imagined that this group represented Saint Veronica's Sacred Handkerchief.
The original figure of the Sextant comprised the twelve unclaimed stars between Leo and Hydra, west of Crater, and it has been generally recognised by astronomers since the date of its invention.
The lucida of the group, a fourth magnitude star, is situated 12° south of Regulus.
According to Argelander the Sextant contains seventeen naked eye stars.
# Star Lore Of All Ages/The Minor Constellations/Scutum Sobiescanum

New York, London: G. P. Putnam's Sons
Hevelius was the first to introduce this figure, which appeared in his star chart of 1690. It is situated in the Milky Way, west of Aquila, between the tail of the Serpent and the head of Sagittarius.
The figure is that of the Coat of Arms of the third John Sobieski, King of Poland, a distinguished warrior.
The group is generally styled "Scutum," and, according to Heis, contains eleven stars, none brighter than the fourth magnitude.
In China these stars comprise an ancient figure known as "the Heavenly Casque."
There are several fine clusters in this region, and it is said that within the boundaries of Scutum, in a space five degrees square, Sir Wm. Herschel estimated that there were 331,000 stars.
# Star Lore Of All Ages/The Minor Constellations/Vulpecula cum Ansere

New York, London: G. P. Putnam's Sons
This is one of several constellations invented by Hevelius in 1690, and appearing for the first time in his star chart published in that year.
It is situated between the Arrow and the Swan, where the Milky Way divides into two branches.
Hevelius is said to have selected this figure because of its appropriateness to its position, as the fox was a cunning and voracious animal, and was placed near the Eagle and Vulture which are of the same rapacious and greedy nature.
The figure is now generally known as "Vulpecula," and contains a noteworthy object in the "Double-headed Shot" or "Dumb-Bell nebula." The group also marks the radiant point of the "Vulpeculids," a meteor shower appearing from June 13th to July 7th.
According to Argelander the asterism contains thirty-seven stars.
