turning passengers Saturday to their
Langdon home from visit of more
than week spent with old friends of
the judges in the pioneer days of

Colonel Sralding's absence on mill
tary service.
1 He is @ well-knewn alurnnus of
Dartmouth and has served on the
Board of Aldermen of Newton, in
which city he has resided for many
years.
Mr.. Jones is native of Vermont,
born in Waitsfeld, May Is, 1871. He
was graduated from Dartmouth in
1894 nd was a member of the col
lege football team. In 1897 he was
graduated from Harvard Law School
and then entered the law office of
Frederick P. Fish.
Shortly afterward he Joined with
two other Dartmouth men, Samuel
L. Powers and Edward K Hall, and
formed the law firm of Powers, Hall
& Jones. One of its principal clients
was the New England Telephone &
Telegraph Company.
Six years later Mr.. Jones resigned
from this firm to enter the employ of
the telephone company as it's coun-
sci. On February 1, 1917, he was
made General Counsel and in October
of that year, when President Spalding
went abroad for service with the avia-
ton section of the Signal Corps, Mr..
Jones was elected first vice president,
a director of the company, a mem
Der of the executive committee of its
Board of Directors and acting pres
ident.
He has thorough knowledge of
the affairs Of the company and is es-
teemed by its entire operating organ
lzation. During the year 1918, when
there were extraordinary demands for
service, and at the same time special
need for economy and efficiency, he
made it a point to personally meet the
employees, through meetings held in
various sections of the territolg, and
to give them frst-hand information
of the conditions and needs of the
company and of his desire for truly
representative management.
Notwithstanding unprecedented
difficulties of wartime conditions, the
response testified not only to the abil-
ity of the employees as an organiza-
ton unit IN behalf of service to the
public, but also to their confidence in
Mr.. Jones as a leader and their en-
thusiastic desire to support him in
every possible way.

is only a form of war-wherein final
victory can only be prepared by a Sc
ries Of defeats in such as befell Lyons
silk weavers in 1881, the Paris reign
of 1888 and the Commune in 1871
Those defeated led step by step to
final victory. The opposite is the
case with political warfare, where the
series of parliamentary victories dur
ing the last 40 years led to crushing
political and moral defeat and the
bankruptcy of August 4, 1914. But
revolutionary victory, the article goes
on, depends on the energy which sur
wives each defeat. The defeat of the
Spartacans in tn previous week was
due partly to the insufficient ripeness
of the situation, partly to the weak
ness and half-heartedness of the lead
ers; but although the leaders failed,
the masses, who are the rock on
which final victory will be built, will
find new leaders. Rosa concludes as
follows:
"Order leigns in Berlin. You stu
pid hangnen. Your order is built
on sand. The revolution will declare
itself tomorrow, rising and rafting its
chains and to your terror with trum-
pet CALI
81 was, l am, shall be-"
Liebknecht's last article was pub
lished on Jan. Is. He also, though
even more violently, explains the
Spartacans' failure as being due to
the detection of the sailors, soldiers,
police and civic guard, on whose help
he had counted and that every drop
of blood the proletariat shed will
prove dragonseed. The article con-
cluds with threats that subterran-
can volcano will tomorrow outbreak
and bury everything in glowing ash
es and streams of lava.
