SHALL 1T BE AGAIN

"Shall it Be Again." by John Ken
meth Turner, PIP. 448. $3.50. Do you
really want to know the truth or do
you prefer to continue to live with and
on the lies that were hammered into
your minds during the years 1916
1919? If the latter. then don't read
Turner's Shall II Be Again9" IF the
former, you will get the book and read
it very carefully. There you will find
documentary evidence of the lies on
which we have been fed for SO many
years, and if after you are thru read
ing the book in detached, objective
manner, you will not come to the con-
clusion that our entry into the war was
stupid, criminal blunder and that our
whole behavior since then has been
marked with treachery and dishonor,
then, then-you are even more stupid
than think you are.-Critic and

al Bank of Cleveland has just mailed
out savings dividend checks to g.
600 depositors, paying them in addi-
ton to the regular 400 interest, com
pounded every quarter from actual
date of deposit, a further dividend of
one-half of one percent for the past
six months, or at the rate of 20 an
nually. The total return to depositors
is in excess of 5 percent, because OF
the generous provision for compound
interest quarterly. This makes the
depositors real partners Of the B. of /.
E. Cooperative National Bank. since
shareholders are receiving but 69o on
their investment.
The B. of L. E. Cooperative Nation
al Bank was the first national bank in
the history of the nation to share its
earnings with depositors. The sound
ness of this cooperative principle is at
tested by the fact that the resources OF
the Bank have increased in the nine
teen months Of its existence from
$653,00O to $l5,00O,0O00O, and are
steadily growing. In accordance with
true cooperative spirit, it does not linn

SUCCESS
By Henry Victor Morgan

J
/ hold that man alone succeeds
Whose life is crowned by noble deeds,
Who cares not for the world 5, applause
And scorns vain customs outgrown
laws;
Who feels not dwarfed by natures
show,
But deep within himself doth know
That conscious man is greater far
Than ocean, land or distant star;
Who does not count his wealth by gold
His worth by office he may hold,
But feels himself as man alone
AS good as king upon throne;
Who battling 'gainst each seeming
wrong
Can meet disaster with a song,
Feel sure Of victory in defeat,
And rise refreshed the foe to meet;
Who only lives the world to bless.
Can never fail-FIE is SUCCESS.

Lodon. - Low wages and forced
lock-outs are going to be responsible
for a famine in Great Britain. The
miners leader, Frank Hodges, has
said: so low are wages and the stu

the inhabitants of the east section of

COOPERATION

Editorial in London Daily Herald)
We congratulate the Cooperative
Congress on its president 1.-THE first wo-
man to hold the position) and we con-
graduate Margaret LIewelyn Davies on
the magnificent speech with which she
opened the great gathering Of cooper
ators.
Miss Davies stands for an advanced
cooperative policy. and her statement
of the cooperative ideal should do
much to remove any doubts Or suspi-
cions as to the value to the whole La
bour cause of the cooperative move
ment.
1--WE are working for no patchwork
notifications, for no reconciliation OF
capital and Labor for no infusion Of
a better spirit into old industrial forms.
We are laying the foundation Of a new
industrial civilization. "
That is true to the whole spirit of CO.
operation, which aims at the peaceful
revolution of ending capitalism by do
ing without it. By supporting their
own organizations for production and
distribution, whether these be Guilds or
the Cooperative societies, the workers
can make successful and bloodless war
on capitalism by. supplanting it.
''The raIIving cry for the whole of
the Labour world is the replacement
of capitalism by an industrial demo
cracy producing for US. 1t is such a
non-capitalist society that co-operatQrs
are actually creating.
Those words cannot be bettered.
They are already being acted upon.
| 1t remains to consolidate action, to
strengthen will and SO complete the
great project of creating working
class and seIf-sufficient community
from below.
Co-operators have to look back upon
difficult year well surmounted, and
they can legitimately be proud of the
achievement, and particularly of the
fact that, at such time of financial
stringency, they made advances to the
miners in their battle of over 100000,
That is plain proof of the powerful
alliance in sympathy and fact between
Co-operators and trade Uniohists. More
and more we must realize that the dis
function between producers and con-
sumers in a matter of function and Of
standpoint. They are the same people
with the same friends and foes, the
same rights and duties, the same OBJ
jective and ideals.
We would stress the point that the
three Labor organizations political
industrial and co-operatiye-are not &C
much different bodies seeking lorna
ALLIANCES as different groupings Of the
same people. That is far more than .
mere technical point. To grasp this
fact is to create the only sense of com.
| pIete solidarity which will make the
whole Labor movement invincible
The outlook of the co-operators a:
an integral and indivisible part Of the
whole army that is fighting the out
worn and degrading system of produc
ton for profit has been splendidly ar
ticulated by Miss Davies. If this spiri
were to animate every one Of the wage
earners, the unity of Labor would cease
to be in doubt and the ideals of Labo
would begin to take shape in clean
er, kindlier society.

Acute asthma, from which Watson
had suffered for years, caused has
death at 2:40 a. m.
Senator Watson had severe attack
of the malady a week ago, but improved

clans protested at that time he was too
weak, but Watson said he felt all right.

tion to the widow.

JACKSON, Calf, Sept. 26-Mitchell
Jogo, skip tender at the time of the
Argonaut fire, testified today before
the coroner 3 jury that the skip could
have been sent down the shaft three
times more.
When he came up on the skip the last
time with Clarence Bradshaw, shift
boss, the shaft runners were in good
condition. They were not warped,
Jogo said.
Jogo also testified that a few days
after the fire started he was dis
charged by the company. He did not
tell why
According to Jogo's statement the
entire group of miners could have been
saved without any danger of losing
the skip if it had been returned.
When Clarence Bradshaw, shift boss
at the time the fire broke out, was
called on the stand he repeated prac-
tically the same statement he had
earlier written for the United Press
Under cross examination of Distrist
Attorney Negrich, however, Bradshaw
admitted unhesitatingly that the first
worry of those on top was for property.
"Then the paramount was to save
property?" asked the district attor-
ney.
eyes, Bradshaw admitted. Negrich
considers this an important point-an
admission that lives were of secondary
consideration.
Negrich scored other points. From
witnesses the jury learned there was
but little attention paid to fire preven-
ton.
f. A. Stent, vice president of the
Argonaut, admitted he had never seen
/ a fire drill. Bert Turner, top man, ad-
mitted the same. He testified he knew
of no fire equipment at the mine. w.
It. Brewer, hoist engineer, said the
only way men in the mine could be
warned would be to send the skip up
and down with sign on it,
Steven Pasalich testified he tried to
open the gates of water tank at the
1000 foot level but could not. The
gates were rusty, he thought.
The hunt for the body of William
Fessel was resumed today with oxygen
| men from the United States Bureau OF
of Mines aiding in the search.
