HOW YONKERS DID IT

Wv NAS4 uPtSN D"'
II shevist meeting by singing the
"Star-Spangled Banner" in the
face of Rose Pastor Stokes. the an
archistic wife of Millionaire Stokes,
has been told in the dispatches from
that city of recent date, but the
exact methods used are set forth for
the first time in a letter from Fran
els Theodore Brown, who set up the
~back-fire" on the parlor Bolshevists,
to the New York Tribune.
Mr., Brown and his companions did
not disturb or interrupt the million
aire anarchist: they just let her rave
Until she ran down for lack of breath
and permitted herself to be ques-
toned, which Mr.. Brown did. to use
his own language, as follows, with
the results as he describes them:
why do you. Mrs. Stokes, as
sumo that your knowledge and
judgment regarding Bolshevism
are superior to John Spargo's,
whose analysis of that revolution
as ruthless seizure of power by
' an armed minority-an inverted
tyranny and utterly undemocratic
must appeal, it seems to me, to
any unbiased mind as true and
have not mentioned Mr. Spargo
with him"
authority as he is and sharing all
your humanitarian sympathy and
hope to the full as he does. he is
absolutely against Bolshevism as
being the foe of democracy, and
against This
haven't the shadow of a doubt
that he is right and you are
wrong. You have said some
things tonight that were very
true. Your criticism of business,
in so far as it is selfish competi-
tion for profits rather than CO.
operative service Of human need.
is perfectly just. I have no doubt
that We are TO work out a far
better social and industrial order
with, far greater socializing of
privilege than at present. But
your injunction of this foreign
nomenclature, your constant talk
OF the bourgeois, the 'proletariat'
and the rest. your deliberate fos-
terinG of the class consciousness
and class antagonism which these
terms suggest. is an impertinence
in this democracy. We are all
Americans here, and please God
we are going to work out these
problems of a juster order pro-
gressively and together!'
was interrupted here by
cheers; some one called for three
cheers for the Constitution of the
United States, which were given
with a will. and the Communist"
meeting ended with a heartfelt
and prayerful singing of THE
$ar-Spangled Banner"
We congratulate Mr.. Brown anC
the people of Yonkers. That is the
way to meet Bolshevism-with 10t
per cent. Americanism. If you know
of a gathering of radicals, take {
fair-sized group of good citizens ant
go around to the hall, listen to thei
harangue and then sing them ou
of the hall with The tar-SangleC
Banner" No BolsheVist in TIL,
world can stand up before al
aroused American audience, eithe
those of the notoriety-seeking Mrs
Stokes type, who lives off the ia
of the land and spends money sh,
in no way helped TO earn, or thos
who are as sincere in their belief
as they are mistaken in their atti
tude toward the problems of tn
day. All of them can be sung int,
silence by any liberty y-loving crow,
that packs the halls where the.
would speak.

"BACK TO OLD ERIN"

Tuesday morning when the MOmus
sailed from New Orleans it took with
it two very dear little friends of ours
Miss Ally O'Sullivan and Miss Katie
Lynch.
Miss OSullivan and Miss Lynch are
both on their way home to Ireland.
There are very few people in our
little burg who will not miss Ally or
Little Redhead," as she was called by
her friends. She has been with us for
seven years and during that time she
has been, as every one else who comes
to Algiers has, zone of us" and though
she has left for Old Erin, we know
that she'll bring little piece of Al
giers with her. Miss OSullivan has
been working for the d. NJ. Davis Com
mercial Merchants for the past three
years and they hate to lose her as
much as we do, but the d. NJ. Davis
Company say, as we do, that "therell
be place for our little redhead' when
ever she makes up her mind to come
this way again.
Miss Lynch came out from Ireland
three years ago. She has been with
us about two years and she, too, has
gathered a host of friends. The S. P.
Railroad Company will certainly miss
their little file clerk, for they found
out, as all her friends have, that she
could be depended upon.
Our little friends will arrive in New
York Monday. They will spend two
weeks with friends there and on No
vember they will leave on the Column
bia for Londonderry, Ireland.
Algiers and everyone in it wish them
pleasant journey and we shall only
hope that some day we'll see our lit
tie redhead" and Katie" strolling
around our town again.
