it will be noticed IL you are afraid to
do so openly for fear that you may
be reported to your boss and be

must build the mass Workers Party.
To action, those who do not want to
humbly die in slavery
The first step on this road Of action
is the circulation OF the revolutionary
workers press, our Workers Trib-

which is still more important-the
circulation Of the English language

no you fare badly brother! Do you
- fare badly sister! You work like
an OK, or perhaps even harder, and
what have you? The bitter worry over
what you will put into your mouth

children with, and what you shall
cover your nakedness with.
You are worse off than the OK. He

not dream that things could be bet.

chered But he knows not the worry
which harnesses you. And he does
not know what you know-that from
your bloody labors arise the mag.
nificent sky-scrapers, the wonderful
palaces for the idlers, who never
touches work with their hands; that
the labor overtaxing your strength
creates superabundance Of luxuries
for them, while you are unable to sat
i5fy even your most humble needs;
that the bloody tears of your wrongs
shine with myriad colored lustre Of
jewels sparkling on the necks OF the
masters harlots.
You fare badly brother and sister!
You know that it is not,a necessity
Of nature, but human wrong, terrible
injustice, the vile social system that
divides the abundance OF riches avail
able to humanity so that the rogue
who produces nothing takes as much
as he wants, while the man of all
creating toll receives barely enough to
keep him from dying of hunger as
long as he is of use to the exploiters.
You desire emancipation from this
misery, you desire justice, ray of
happiness, which is justly due you
for your labors.
But what are you doing to bring
this ray of happiness to US?
You know that there are countless
millions Of such as you, of working
men and workingwomen, wives of the
workers. You know that we are in
the great majority; that if we rose
to action together we would crush
completely the parasitic vermin that
suck our blood, that the only thing
needed is the awakening of our sleep
ing power, organizing it and throwing
it into the struggle!
But that must be done. 1t will not
do itself. You forge your shackles
every day, increasing the power OF
your oppressors with your labor. But
you hesitate to apply your hand to
break these shackles.
The first wedge which crumples the
prison walls of our present miserable
existence is the word Of working class
truth, the workers paper.
Tell us, how many readers did you
get for our Workers Tribune?"
You are silent? You have nothing
much to brag about? Perhaps you do
not even know that in order to insure

it's steady publication our Workers
Tribune" should have at least twice
the number of readers that it has at
present; that today it is3constantly in
danger of suspension due to the lack
Of money for printing and paper
which with the present number of
readers costs almost twice as much
as is received from the sale Of the
paper? 5
And how many readers did you gain
for our English language daily, the
DAILY WORKER?
"Oh," you say, why worry about
the English daily when our Polish
weekly is just about breathing?"
Your attitude is wrong. We must
worry much more about our English
daily. The English daily is the torch
lighting the way OF the struggle for
emancipation of the entire working
class of this country. II it did not
exist all the working class papers
published in other languages which
reach only groups of workers isolated
from each other would amount to
practically nothing.
You say that you do not under
stand English, that you cannot read
this paper yourself. That's bad. You
should know not only enough Eng
lish to understand the orders and in
suits OF the boss, but. also to be able
to speak to your fellow worker. You
should learn, and it is precisely by

Fools at King Capitals Court

In medieval times kings costumarily kept
a kind Of. human being, often artihcially
disfgured into grotesque form, in attendance at
their thrones dressed like a clown and privileged
to crack jokes at the monarch without making
acquaintance with the headsman. In return they
drank the kings wine, ate at his table, enjoyed the
boon of the kingly smile and doubtless were given
a few coins.
few weeks back the plute press was full of
stories and photos of visit made to the White
House by group of famous actors and comedians,
led by Al JolsOn, John Drew and Charlotte Greene
wood. Stories filed the newspapers with eulogistc
detail of how they "breakfasted" with Cal Cool
dge, how Spontaneous" AL Jolson's humor was,
and how all sang and laughed like "happy and in
nocent children" and even Silent Cal degned to
bestOw royal smile
1t is our sad duty to disclose that the Borah
committee investigating campaign expenses
told that the whole affair was staged for election
purposes by Rhinelander Waldo of New York with
G. o. p. money. Waldo paid 1927 in carfares
and hotel bills alone while ellison Gardner testi
fed that the stunt was offered forhs favorite can
didate at the price of $4,000.
The theatrical profession has need to make
itself heard in protest at this disgraceful prosttu
ton of professional prominence. But Communists
are not surprised In 1S47 Marx and EngeIs
wrote :-"The bourgeoisie has stripped of its halo
every occupation hitherto honored and looked up
to with reyerent awe. 1t has converted the physi-
clan, the lawyer, the priest, the poet the man of
science into its paid wage laborers.7 1880
But in the case of the visit to Coolidge, it did
more. These actors earning their living pro
fessionally as wage laborers more less honestly
They volunteered, for an extra stipend, to prosti
tute what they call their art to capitalist politics.

me Believe me, have no other thought but your happiness"
 Then Mavis, desiring nothing so much as Co open her arms and hold this great hearted man tightly to her, shattered the pinnacle of happiness which he was even then hold ing out for her to take.
 And yet you object to my dancing-1ust because you do not dance yourself! Your selfshness is unworthy of you, Pat!'
 He shut his eyes tightly and pressed his teeth upon his lip, like a man stifing cry. He saw the uselessness of attempting recon ciliation now. When the spasm had passed and he had regained a measure of self control he spoke again.
 "Mavis. We are both overwrought. We must not say anything that is going to hurt, and 1t is better that I should go now before we do. Tomorrow I have to go North I'll write you from there. l shall be away a week or so. eThat will give us time to see things in their true perspective. Kiss me goodby, dear"
 But Mavis turned away from him.
 q think you are perfectly horrid,' she said.
 '"Those words do not come from your heart, dear" he returned very gently, We both know that. It is only because l want to spare you pain, the pain of regretting, that am going
 And he took her hand, pressed it to his lips and left her, closing the door ever so gently behind him.
 THEN to Mavis, left alone with her l thoughts, came the bitterness of regrets too long delayed. At that moment she could have been hugging to her breast thrilling delight, the delight that comes to maid with the declaration of a mans love and with the answer which places her forever in that mans keeping. And instead, she had to nurse but bedraggled torment of sor- row.
 The telephone on the little Chippendale escritoire broke in upon her reverie, and languidly she moved toward the instrument.
 It was Ronald, asking if he might take her 10 the dance-the first dance that mat tered-of the season? The voice which an swered him sounded like the voice of the eladdest woman alive, the voice of a gay butterfly of a woman with no thought for anything in the whole wide world but thoughts of pleasure.
 And Ronald, in a fools paradise, con. eratulated himself when she said he might which he would have been far from doini had he been able at that moment to see thu drawn features of this butterfly girl ol been able to glimpse even deeper into thu very soul of her
 And at the big dance, and at other dancei which followed, Ronald went on con graduating himself and Mavis went on en couraging him to do so, knowing all the
