My Comrade:
You have read the theories Of Karl
Marx and other Socialist writers. You
believe in them9 They were written
many years ago. Are you advancing
beyond the theories Of these men, or
are you still living among theories
Why should you believe in these men S
theories and not try to carry them in
to effect9
Do you think the time will ever
come when everybody, or even a ma
jority Of our people, will be ready to
act upon these beliefs simultaneously
or do you think we should start to act
now2 Can we do it now2 Yes! Why
not?
For nearly seven years a group of
people have been trying the expert
nent, and they are now convinced it
IAN be done. After nearly seven years
he Llano Cooperative Colony has
reached the point where it has conf
lence in their plan and. better still,
he colonists have confidence in each

We came to Louisiana three years

100 acres of land. paying for it on an
plan. We paid for 1000 |

COMBINE PLOTS
TO BALK CLEANING
Fight on Incinerating Plant Part
Of Scheme to Tangle Ad-
ministration Program
MAYOR HAS "ACE IN H0LE'

City Administration leaders regard
the guerrilla warfare in Council against
the program of city-wdc cleaning OF
the streets by municipal forces on Janu
ary1 as part Of plan to prepare for a
restoration of the old contract political
system of street cleaning under the next
Mayor. providing he be friendly TO the
Wares
This view. emphasized by the fight
on the erection of Instructors Of rubbish
and garbage. was rather frankly stated
today in Administration circles.
Director Caven. however, blowing out
the dust that has been kicked up by the
Ware forces announced definitely and
fatty that the city would take over the
cleaning Of all the streets on the first of
the coming year, no matter what mon
key wrenchcs may be thrown into the
machinery.
THE mandate Of the new City Char
ter declared Director Cavcn, "will be
carried out. irrespective Of any and
all hamstringing tactics that may br
INDUCED in and it will hc done at a
big saving OF the taxpayers money"
The Director plainly intimated that
for every trick the Contractor Combine
thinks II WINS the Department Of Pub
lie Works andthe Mayor have an ACE
in the hole"
The plan back Of the hamstringing
tactics. according to Moore leaders. is
to make city cleaning more expensive
than il would be II there were the right
kind of co operation between the De
partment Of Public Works and City
COur ell. With this object in view, the
contractor element hopes to be able to
show by ''official figures" that city
cleaning costs more than contract clean :
ing. Administration leaders pointed out
that official figures might be jockeyed
about and distorted in such way that
the next Mayor. if prejudiced in favor
of the Ware contract system. might be
able to argue for Il return to the old
contract system.
Director Caven declared. however
that not only would more and better
work be done under city wide cleaning
than under contract cleaning. but tha,
it would cost less Just as it has cost
less in the two districts cleaned by mu
ncipal forces this year. Genuine off
cial figures. he said. would prove this

TEACHERS SALARIES UP
Question Of Promition and Seniority
Under Discussion

Complaints Of school teachers that
every promotion robs them of their Sc
niority and the resulting increase of
pay will be discussed today when the
Sub committee of Teachers Salaries
of the Board Of Education meets. Al
though the Finegan schedule was in
stalled at a cost of nearly $4,000 900
year to help build up the morale Of the
teaching force, there has been a great
deal of complaint against it.
The teachers claim that a retroactive
Interpretation of the plan robs them of
their seniority standing. 1t is said that
the attitude that the Board of Education
takes toward the plan saves the city
only about 1925. 900 a year while caus-
ing n great deal of discomfort among the
teachers.
