Tuberculosis Association
Plans To Move Office.

Purchase of the building at 900 St.
Paul street by the Maryland Tubercu-
losis Association was announced. The
association plans to move it's offices
to the first floor of the building about
January 1. ea 40 .e SAT-
The two upper floors will be rented
as apartments, affording a source Of
revenue which is expected to make the
building selfsupporting.
Officials of the association said they
were prompted to make the purchase
by increased rentals In downtown
properties. They believe that by own
ing its own building the association
can increase funds allocated to it's
various enterprises, which include the
Children's Preventorium at Claiborne,
medical consultant service, county
clinics, educational and industrial de-
partments and the health crusade.

Cumberland.-Col John Heating,
who has been prominent among the
Democratic leaders of the State, has
resigned as member of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee for AL
legany county. Colonel Heating had
been elected chairman to succeed for
mer Judge William c. Walsh, who re-
signed to go on the bench, second
time Governor Richie having signi-
fed his intention Of appointing him to
succeed Judge A. Hunter Boyd, who
will retire.
Colonel Heating told friends that he
did not want to be burdened looking
after details of political campaign.
He would, therefore, not only decline
the craftsmanship, but resign from the
committee at the same time.

TT is hard to find correspondence
= between husband and wife so low
ing as the letters that passed between
James Fenimore Cooper and his wife.
He Is the author of 1.-THE Deerslayer"
and is one of Americas most beloved
novelists. There are few of the great
European writer's and artists gener-
ally who have not each played Romeo
to variety Of Juliets, single and mar
ried. The romance of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cooper is an example, typical of the
lives of notable Americans in the fine
arts.
The following passage from note
written by Coeper's daughter when her
father died. shows tender picture Of
her parents:
"For many years, before separating
for even short business absence Of
dear fathers, they always said to-
gether the prayer in the marriage serv-
Ice. They knelt together, fathers arm
about mother; when he grew feeble
she knelt and he leaned his head on
her shoulder"
All Of Cooper's letters to his "Sue"
are headed by every type Of endearing
salutation one could think of, from
my precious Sue" to Dearest Be
loved" This letter was written by
Cooper in 1915 and is one Of the series
which he sent her regularly every two
or three days when they were sep
arated at that time:
Runaway:
"You have missed me at Syracuse
but you cannot imagine how much You
have been missed here. For a day or
two I was about to call out Matte

were mistaken for you at every turn.

Benson To Lead Davis M
Fight In State

Carville d. Benson, of Baltimore
county, former member Of Congress,
was chosen by Democratic leaders as
chairman of the party executive COM
mittee Of 20 members to conduct the
campaign in the State for the Davis
Bryan ticket.
When Howard Bruce firmly refused
to head the finance committee, urging
his lack of time, the State leaders, in
Guiding Governor Richie, was left at
sea as to the man to fill this important
post.
The result was the emergence on
the political map of Maryland of Will
liam F. Alexander, of the insurance
firm of Alexander & Alexander He
is a former West Virginian and a
close friend of John w. Davis. After
a two-hour meeting the conferees Of
fered him the post.
The informal action by the leaders
followed routine meeting of the
State Central Committee, in which DR..
George Heller was ratified as the
party's candidate for Congress to OPP
pose Representative John Philip Hill
in the Third district. Heller accepted
and made speech.
Governor Richie also made an ad-
dress in which he expressed belief that
Davis can carry Maryland because "he
stands for what Marylanders stand
for" He referred to the fact that
Davis had courage enought to de-
nounce the Khan by name and to op-
pose Federal bureaucracy.

Gus but class conscious proletariat and
and large mass of poor, starving and
overawed peasantry.
The corrupt bureaucracy of the au.
tocracy could not supply the leader
ship-and the under developed indus
try of Russia could not supply the ma.
terials necessary for a successful pro-
secution of the war The collapse
was inevitable. 1t came with a crash,
The Russian workers, whose organ
izations were suppressed and whose
leaders were prosecuted even in nor
NAL times, found the war an added
weight on their shoulders. The police
became the all-powerful taskmaster,
driving a dissatisfied proletariat back
into the treadmill of capitalist profits.
But this proletariat had revolution
airy tradition. The only attempts Of
mass revolt against upspeakable and
unbearable czarism in the past were
made and led by this proletariat. The
increased pressure upon them could
not subdue them but could only in
crease the counter-pressure On the
same ratio.
The army in the field. the masses of
exploited and oppressed peasants in
uniform. the strongest basis of car
ism, began to crumble. Corrupt gen.
erals. even up to the minister of war,
Suchomlinov, betrayed them: corrupt
officials stole their equipment or the
money appropriated for them; reac-
tionary officers tortured them; and
their fathers and brothers at home on
the land were ruined by the food poll
cies of the government. Under these
sufferings Of the soldiers, the proverb-
ial loyalty OF the Muzhiks was crushed
and autocracy found that bayonets
may be good to lean upon, but are not
good to sit upon.

they succeeded in uniting these Com.
munist forces internationally and to
create a nucleus around which the
revolutionary resistance Of the prole-
tariat of the world against the i'm
perialist governments and the imper-
ialist war could be organized.
Imperialism had it's weakest spot in
Russia. The capitalist class of that
country was only just developing. In
many instances the Russian capital
lists were only the administrators of
foreign capital imported into Russia.
This urge was met halfway by the
semi-feudal desires for expansion of
the cid autocracy Of the ROmanoffs
and their immediate hackers, the
great landowners. Thus backward Rus
STA, too. launched its ship Of state on
the highAeas Of the imperialist war.
At the head Of the government
stood q thoroly rotten autocracy
whose morality sometimes was even
too much for the none too delicate nos
trils Of an always-devoted bourgeOisie.
Side by side with this rotten and cor
rupt autocracy and its machinery of
state, the capitalist class (the bour-
geoisie) stood, supporting the autoc-
racy and revealing in its position as
his majesty's most loyal and devoted
opposition. That was the upper strata
But below this thin veneer OF
wealth and power there were the
masses Of Russia not very numer-
