Doctors have found by experience that no medicine for colds and influ- enza can be depended upon for full ef- fectiveness until the liver is made thor ouchly active. That is why the first step in the treatment is the new, nausea less calomel tablets called Calotabs, which are free from the sickening and weakening effects of the old style calo mel. Doctors also point out the fact that an active liver may go long way towards preventing influenza and IS one of the most important factors in en- abling the patient to successfully with stand an attack and ward off pneu- monia.
 One Calotab on the tongue at bed time with swallow of water-that ' all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight est interference with your eating, pleas ure or work. Next morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is purified, and you are feeling fine, with hearty appetite for break fast. Druggists sell Calotabs only ln original sealed packages, price thirty five cents. Your money will be cheer fully refunded if you do not find them delightfuL-(Adv.)

DEBS AND THE SOCIALIST PARTY

that there from fifteen to twenty Thousand Right
Wing members in the Socialist Party and an equal
number Of Communists, willing to risk anything for
their principles in the underground organizations of
the two Communist parties There was the difference
however, that while the Socialist Party was drifting
toward complete dsintegration, the Communists were
solid, militant organizations
By their attitude toward the Left Wing the
Socialist party leaders had lost the confidence of
large block of membership, which, while not yet Com
munist resented the reactionary trend of the party
UP to the time of the Albany trial the ST. Louis war
program and the war record of the party had been
the means of holding some of it's membership al
though the membership which forced the unwilling
leaders to adopt this program had long ago left the
party But with the complete reputation at Albany
this asset gone. new block of members within
the party threatened to revolt The future looked
black
It was to meet this situation that the reactonary
Right Wing leaders appealed to the magic name of
Debs
The Hillquts, Stedmans and Bergers of the Social
list Party have never liked Debs In the controversies
within the party prior to the split dating back for
ten years. whenever Debs had spoken he had aligned
himself against these leaders. In the 1912 convention
of the party in which the last previous nomination of
Debs was made they had fought against his nominat
ion and had tried to fois upon the party Seide and
Socialism that talked about sewer building as its
great achievement Debs was nominated only after il
became apparent that the militant rank and file of the
convention could not be forced to swallow Sede and
Sewers
The 1920 nomination of Debs through the nflu
ence of these leaders is merely political trick
Through this nomination they hone to rehabilitatt
the Socialist Party They do not like Debs They dc
not want Debs But they are ready to swallow Debs il
order to have party and they expect that the magic
Of Debs will again rally to the support Of tht
party al those clements which have been unaff atct
with any organization since the split in the party tool

place. and even TO break into the Communist ranks.
Does Debs willingly lend himself to this political
game? That is question which is in the mind of
many revolutionary workers.
The Right Wing Socialist leaders have tried to
create the impression that Debs is fully informed III
regard to the developments in the party since his i'm
prRonment and that he accepted the nomination Of
the Right Wing with a complete realization of its
meaning This is part of the game to use his prestige
for the rebuilding of the party Debs knows all the
facts and Debs is with the Socialist Party, therefore
the Communist attack upon the party is made up of
lies and calumnies is their argument
THE FACT IS DEBS DOES NOT KNOW. He
does not understand the depth to which the Socialist
Party has sunk in its repudiation of Revolutionary
Socialism He does not know all the facts about the
Albany defense and its abect apology to the peanut
politicians of the New York legislature for being
suspected of standing for those things which Debs
upholds particularly the st. Louis war program.
What little information Debs has secured about the
recent acts Of the Socialist Party convention made
him hesitate and in accepting the nomination of the
party he made the qualification that in doing so he
did not intend to accept anything that would be a
compromise of his previous utterance on the matter
Of Socialist principles.
! This statement as to Debs' attitude is not based
on hearsay 1t is made after than hours talk
with Debs, which took place since he accepted the
Socialist nomination.
Debs permitted his name to go before the Socialist
convention, hoping that his candidacy would serve as
the means Of reunting the former factions Of the
Socialist Party. The belief that his candidacy coulG
retnte these factions is in itself evidence that Deb
does not understand the great difference in principles
thdt divide them He has not been in touch with th
drift to the Right by the Socialist Party leaders anC
tks, drift to the Left by the Communists
might as well be said frankly, that while Deb
would quickly repudiate the present position of tn

Peterson also gave description Of
the man he thought was Fraina. When
he was brought into the room in which
the hearing was held he was asked to

here that Fraina's appearance had

examined Peterson, and after a ques-
tion or two Peterson stated "You are

that the description giving by Peterson
of the man he saw in the Department
of Justice offices was not a descrip.

Fraina during his work in the move

him.
During the cross examination of

the reliability of his story were
