be extended by a thousand names, but
the results in most of the cases were

You say off we can gather enough

ask where you expect to find these
intelligent workers." if you do not
rely upon sound education but place
your dependence upon "jollying
them" and catering to their ignorance
and prejudice?
am of the opinion that you are
also in error in your statement about
the length of time in which education,
proletarian education, has been advo-
Gated. Your statement, eff some peo-
pie prefer to stay in the old rut, that
is their fault. but we are going to get
! out" would lead one to infer that YOU
had decided to cease being "rut-
runner" but your other statement
about 'jollying the worker and work
ing with them for the things upper
most in their minds" offsets this and
brands you as true-to-type rut-run-
liner.
/ certainly agree with you in your
statement that that eve have not

good judgment" in educating the
worker. This "jolly the worker" idea
is now and has been, the idea upper
most in the minds of the National
Office and is the idea underlying
most all Of the propaganda work that
has been and is now being done; little
of real education has been accomplish
ed. The plan generally followed has
been to ignore education, jolly the
workers (fool them if possible) and
get the vote. Action is not ALL that
IS needed. You can get action by
fool flag waving. Action based upon
sound knowledge is what is needed.
The Ignorance and prejudice" we
both deplore is the direct result of
the master class dominion over the
sources of information. 1t is not to

JOLLYING THE WORKERS

Editor Of The Northwest Worker,
Everett, Wash.
Dear Comrade;
1t is with keen interest that | have
read the controversy appearing in the
Northwest Worker of March be-
tween yourself and Proletaria Bill. l
am sure that Proletaria Bill is able to
hold his own IN controversy over the
relative merits of Education VS.. "Jolly
them and work with them for the
things uppermost in their minds" but
being somewhat interested in the
spread of proletarian science, | can
not refrain from 'butting in" ON the
discussion.

Dear Sir:
We desire to congratulate you and
your colleagues on your part in the
so-called filibuster on the armed
neutrality bill your refusal to dele
gate car like power to the president
is now bringing down on you the
wrath of the subsidized press.
The time will come when the peo-
pie will find out about the profit lust
behind the present war agitation
then if you continue to oppose the
war mad militarist instead of being
accused of treason you will be hon
ored for having, in critical time, the
courage to stand and face the abuse
of the hireling editors.
You may be assured you have the
support of all sane humanitarians If

ring in Melbourne trained to the last
minute, and looking the picture Of
health and vitality. Clabby did as he

PACIFICS OLDEST NAVIGATOR
Brings Scraps TO HONOLULU

SiXty-seven years at sea, 70 years
OF age and the oldest navigator in &C
tive service on the Pacific is the
record held by Capt Robert lawson,
commander OF the ex-German ship
lnter-Island at Pier 3. Spry, amiabla
and able are his outstanding char
acteristics.
When seen this morning he was
laughingly telling his CHIEF steward
how he had been taken for one OF the
ships stewards and approached by a
Filipino who wanted to know il the
captain wouldn't stow him away for
a consideration.
81 told him | would, certainly" the
aged skipper chuckled, as he pointed
to the little brown brother who was
waiting, confident that he had found
a friend that would help him realize
his desire 10 get to California.
Half century or more has passed
since Capt. Lawson first called at
Honolulu and he is known to many of
the older kamaainas. Though the
changes of the so years have been
great and many, the captain refuses
TO spend any time in Renaissance.
He is too much interested in ascer-
tanning when and how much sugar the

The Scraps will be discharged by
tomorrow afternoon, when the task OF
cleaning the ship will begin, the cap
tain says.
Capt. Lawson spent many years as
master of sailing vessels, so many
that he has lost count Of them. For
81 years he has been in the employ
of one concern. the Simpson Lumber
Co. of San Francisco, for whom he
has been port captain for many years.
With an increased demand for navi-
gators brought about by the war Capt.
Lawson was called again to the navi
eating bridge, apparently q matter OF
pleasure to him. They couldn't get
any one else so they had to send me
to sea-" he jokingly says.
Capt. Lawson denies the statement
that he has been to sea for 81 years,
with this remark: why that is i'm
possible. You know / am only 60
years OF age" which he really looks.

There are hundreds of Filipino base
bali fans on Kauai and a visit of the

much interest in the game there. The

he would take this action.

DETENTION HERE OF
DUTCH STEAMERS Is
NO SURPRISE TO HIM

1t was no surprise to J. D. Mcinerny
to hear OF the holding in Honolulu
harbor Of the two Dutch steamers, he
says, as he saw as many as 40 Dutch
steamers at anchor in the Hudson riv'
er while he was there last month.
Mr.. McInerny says the steamers were
all loaded, ready to sail for Europe,
but were unable to secure permission
t, do so, due to the export embargo
put in force by the export board.
There were so many OF the steam
ers that they we're at anchor in the
Hudson river as far up as Grants
monument" he says.
