acres; the crop is bought while it is
in the ground, many thousands Of
bushels are never harvested but sirpp.s
ly allowed to rot. The capitalists find
that smaller supply can be easier
handled and that scarcity initiates the
price. The same culpable thing is done
in the orchard districts of Michigan,
where they buy apples upon the trees,
never intending to pick them, they
fall and rot. 1t is not the intention to
convey the idea that the entire crop
is destroyed in this way, but that
only limited part is brought to the
market.

movement ever undertaken by any
working class on the face of the
globe.
Russia is Victim of Liars.
For American trade unionists it is
no new thing to see working-class
movements misrepresented and villa
fled by the kept press and other
hangers-on Of the sxpioiters. m fact,
practically our entire machinery for
giving expression to so-called public
opinion, and for bringing the news to
the people has degenerated into pro-
paganda agency Of organized Big
Business, with the chief goal in view
to discredit and destroy labor organi-
zation of every kind. But all our ex-
perience with the hired liars of Amer
lea is as nothing compared with the
experience of the Russian workers.
Their vast movement is of incompar-
ably greater volume and moment than
ours; it threatens the very existence
Of the capitalists Of the whole world.
Consequently it has aroused ire
mendous opposition. Universally the
social parasites, desperately alarmed,
have called toStheir service the entire
body Of united liars and defamers and
vilifiers Of every country. Every de-
vice known to man has been exhaus-
ted to convince the world, and before
all the working-class, that the toiling
Russians and their leaders are monst-
ers in human form and that their re.
volution is subversiye of all that is
good in social life.
American Workers Misinformed.
The worst of it is that great armies
of workers in outside countries have
been duped by these deliberate fabri
cations. Again say that this is par
ticularly true of the United States. II
every other country at least the or
ganized sections Of the workers hav,
been able to rise above the employers

tuation so that they have been led t,

Russian workers instheir gigantic figh
for liberty. But not so with us; ou
trade union movement alone is openl
hostile to the Russian revolution, an
to its sad discredit has joined hand
with the dark forces Of Imperialisti
Capitalism that are seeking to destro
it. We have swallowed the employer,
propaganda hook, line and sinke.. Gu

Maggie refused. Why, in one Of
Fanny Hurst's stories that she re-
membered wildly, girl went out to
lunch with another girl who intro
duced her to a friend who was
plumber, who married her, and then
beat her because, she wouldn't go out
i'll a blizzard at ga. m., to buy him
a bucket of beer. It's pretty hard to
tell in this sentence which girl mar
ried the plumber, but the fact re-
mains that he was brute and girls
can't be too careful about whom they
meet at the lunch hour. Maggie was
playing the city safe.
That evening Maggie found
boarding house where men were not
permitted to light. She knew all
about the dangers of these co-edu-
cational boarding houses. The man
across the hall was always some
starving artist who so appealed to
your pity that you married him, and
when he got rich and famous he
threw you over to marry the daugh-
ter of the banker who understood
him." Maggie was going to stay
married when she got that far.
The next day the blow fell. Nc
Call, the floorwalker-he had a black
mustache and a diamond on his fin
ger--passed by her counter and
smiled at her. Maggie at once knew
her dilemma. She must either suc-
cumb to the floorwalker or lose her
job. Mccall passed her several
times during the next few hours and
each time smiled. Maggie's heart
trip-hanmered while she waited for
Mccall TO say the words she could
already see forming on his lips.
Meet me out in front after the
store closes and we will 20 to

If she refused him she knew he
would have her discharged either by
putting a bolt of lace in her Jacket
or having a customer make COM
plant. By 4 o'clock Maggie's mind
was made UP and she was milling
around in her head several crushing
iCphCS " AidhC " MSSdli.
At 4:30 the floorwalker leaned
over Maggie's counter.
IF it is convenient, will you
please remain a few moments after
the store closes. l would like to
speak to you"
White and cold, Maggie waited
near the elevator for Mccall. He
approached with a smile.
"Oh, Miss Holmes, have a Sun
day school class made up of girls
from the store and ! should very
much like to have you join. Will

One of the replies that Maggie
had been rehearsing burst from her:
mo, I will not. III quit first.
I'm an honest country girl and you
can't make me do anything that's
not right"
