declare for a moderate progressive
tax, the workers must insist on a tax
so steeply graduated as to cause the
collapse of large capital; if the demo
Gratis propose the regulation of the
national debt, the workers must de-
mand state bankruptcy. The demands
of the workers will depend on the pro-
posals and measures of the democrats.
If the German workers will only
come to power and to the enforce
ment of their class interests after a
prolonged revolutionary development,
they will at least gain the certainty
that the first act of this revolutionary
drama will coincide with the victory
of their class in France, and this will
surely accelerate the movement of
their own emancipation. But they
themselves must accomplish the
greater part of the work; they must
be conscious of their class interests
and take up the position of an indie
pendent party. They must not be di-
verified from their course of proletar.

of the democratic petty bourgeoisie.

shall be put in the midst of the
crumbling bourgeois property institu-
tions. Just as the democrats have
combined with the small peasantry
so we must fight shoulder to Shout
der with the agricultural proletariat
Further, the democrats will either
work directly for a federal republic or
at least, if they cannot avoid the re-
public one and indivisible, will seek to
paralyze the Capitalization of govern
ment by granting the greatest possible
independence to the municipalities
and provinces. The workers must set
their face against this plan, not only
to secure the one and indivisible Ger
man republic, but to concentrate as
much power as possible in the hands
Of the central government. They
need not be misled by democratic
platitudes about freedom of the com
munes, self-determination, etc. In a
country like Germany, where there
are so many medieval remnants to
be swept away and so much local and
provincial obstinacy to be overcome,
under no circumstances must par
ishes, towns, and provinces be allowed
to be made into obstacles in the way
of the revolutionary activity which
must emanate from the center. That
the Germans should have to fight and
bleed, as they have done hitherto, for
every advance over and over again
in every town and in every province
separately cannot be tolerated. AS In
France in 1898, so it is today the
task of the revolutionary party in
Germany to centralize the nation.
We have seen that the democrats
will come to power in the next phase
Of the movement, and that they will
be obliged to propose measures of q
more or less socialist nature. 1t will
be asked what contrary measures
should be proposed by the workers.
OF course they cannot in the begin
ming propose actual Communist meas
ures, but they can ID compel the
democrats to attack the old social or
der from as many sides as possiblel
disturb their regular procedure and
compromise themselves, and concen-
trate in the hands of the state as
much as possible of the productive
forces, means Of transport factories
railways, etc. (ii) The measures of
the democrats, which in any case are
not revolutionary but merely reform
list, must be pressed to the point of
turning them into direct attacks on
private property; thus, for instance,
if the petty bourgeoisie propose to
purchase the railways and factories,
the workers must demand that such
railways and factories, being the
property Of the reactionaries, shall
simply be confscated by the state
without compensation. If the demo
Gratis propose proportional taxation,
the workers must demand progressive
taxation; If the democrats themselves

Got Bullet in Chest
but Saped His Friend

A duel was fought in a forest on the
outskirts of Berlin recently between
two men more than forty years old
who had been lifelong friends, accord
ing to a Berlin letter in the COntinen-
tai edition of the London Mail.
They are both bachelors, but one,
merry squire, fell in love with pretty
girl of twenty-One and was determined
to marry her. The other, q wealthy
business man, was certain the pretty
girl would make his friend unhappy.
He noticed, for instance, that when the
three of them were in restaurants the
pretty girl returned the admiring
glances of young men at other tables.
Love is blind and the squire saw
nothing of this. His friend, not under
standing the danger Of interfering in
other peoples love affairs, hit on a
plan to save him. He sent the pretty
girl love letter inviting her to meet
him and signed it with a fictitious
name. Two love letters had no effect,
but the third brought that naughty
girl to the rendezvous, and he was
there to see her arrive. He went home
chuckling and told her how he had
tricked her and warned her to leave
his friend alone.
But she, with that touch Of genius
which deceives mere men every time
went straight of to her squire with
tears in her eyes and the letters in
/ her hand.
The result was the duel and bullet
in the chest of the kind but blunder
ing friend. The story has, however, 6
highly moral ending. Overcome witt
grief at the sight of his friend bleed
ing on the ground. the squire agreeC
to have nothing more to do with thu
pretty girl.

How TroLLope Worked

reprint, appears an account Of that
prolific writer's method: According

then heavy or light, or whether the
book which was writing was or was
not wanted with speed-I have allOt-
ted myself so many pages a week. The
average number has been about forty.
1t has been placed as low as 20, and
has risen to 112. And, as a page is an
ambiguous term, my page has been
made to contain 250 words; and, as
words, If not watched, will have a
tendency to straggle, have had every
word counted as I went There
has ever been the record before me,
and a week passed with an insufficient
number of pages has been a blister to

It is only for the sake of the free

Get Beautiful Effects
From Lighted Marble

When an official of the United
States bureau Of standards was max
ing an inspection Of indoor lighting
arrangements as used in Europe he
was surprised to find an old church In
Italy in which the daylight was filtered
through thin slabs of delicate tinted
marble. The effect was a surprisingly
beautiful one and one not easily du-
plicated by our makers Of ornamental
glassware, as there is peculiar charm
about the natural cOloring Of some
Of the Italian marbles, writes the
Washington Star.
However, the marble must be so
thin for such a purpose that it could
not form a commercial substitute for
window panes or for use In electric
light fixtures Now a French investi-
gator has found that such marble
slabs can be used In much greater
thickness If they are polished on both
sides and then saturated with parafln
or shellac. By giving them such a
treatment he has been able to obtain
beautiful effects in Illuminating cor
ridOrs by the light of tungsten lamps
concealed behind the marble walls OF
the Railways. The loss Of light is
said to be only about 20 per cent Cor

When Forks Were NeuU

The present-day fork, with its four
prongs, was not developed until after
1725, and as late as the period Of
George III the wife Of a gentleman In
waiting to the king, about 17SS, wrote
that silver forks were used only by
the nobility and foreign ambassadors,
and that, since they had but three
prongs, the knives were made broad
ended, so that one might use them TO
eat peas and catch fruit juices. 1t
seems that the use of the dessert
snocn was unknown at that time.

THREE MOTHERS GET PENSIONS

tiOns When They Have Means of Own

State Commission Refuses Applica-
tiOns When They Have Means of Own |
The Mothers Pension Commission
held its monthly meeting September
3 in the Supreme Court room at Do
yer. Those present were: Miss Cora
Coombe Tschudy, chairman; Mrs. l.
Layfeld Long, recording secretary;
Mrs Joseph Lank, Milton; Miss Julia
Burton, Georgetown; Mrs. Robert L.
Holiday, Dover; Miss Lizzie H.
Woodruff, Milford; Miss Marie 7.
Lockwood, Middletown; Mrs. Charles
B. Jacobs, and Mrs. Howard Pyle of
Wilmington.
Three new pensions were granted,
four applications disallowed, and six
cases were discontinued. Within the
past month one mother has died leav-
ing a little family of four children;
another mother is seriously i'll. The
refusal to grant a pension is always
based on grounds satisfactory to the
commission that the applicant does
not come under the terms of the law
under which pension is granted. For
instance, the Delaware Commission,
in line with other states, has put a
limit to the amount of money a
mother may have in order to receive
state aid; so that, many times a
mother is disallowed when it would
seem that she was worthy, but in
vestigation discloses the fact that she
has sufficient for present needs and
that the state would not be justified
in taking over a family having that
amount in reserve. Besides this
amount of money, mother may have
equity in a home, to which a limit is
, also set by the commission. The sub
ject of the budget for 1926 and 1927
was taken up and prepared for pres
. entation to the governor on Septem-
Der Is. Miss Griggs, executive sec
retary, gave an account of the Ma

Sheen in America

Sheep were unknown In the dOmes-
ticated state In America until after the
Spanish conquest. The beginning Of
the sheep industry in the New World
dates back to the time OF COrtez and
his conquest Of Mexico in the early
part Of the Sixteenth century. Nearly
all Mexican sheep can be traced to
early CASTLE breeds. This Is also the
source Of the early sheep In the west
ern part Of the United States. 1t is
believed that the English cOlOnists first
brought sheep to Virginia in 1909.
originally all sheep probably came
from Asia, but American breeds all
sprang from stock imported from Eu-
rope.
