The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-11-25
AS WE SEE IT

THE Fascist government of Bavaria
and the Vatican have signed an
agreement which gives catholic
priests the right to teach religion in
The public schools. The agreement is
given the standing Of treaty between
two powers and recognizes the right Of
the Vatican to pass laws within its
church jurisdiction, which laws are
binding on its subjects. Other articles
OF the treaty make religious education
In accordance with doctrines OF the
catholic church compulsory, provide
for church supervision of Bavarian
education and payment by the govern
ment to clerical teachers and six bish-
ops whose dioceses are in Bavaria
Those who believe that the Vatican
has changed its spots need attention
from an occulist
n N enterprising firm of undertakes
~ in an advertisement in Chicago
daily, calls attention to what it consid
ers the unfair custom among police Of
ncers in turning over bodies Of acct
dent victims to the nearest under
taker, who takes advantage of thi
windfalI by charging an exorbitan
price for his services. Evidently IT,
work shop of the protesting unde.
takers is not located in good bus
ness section or where the cops rear
their heaviest harvest Of dead bodies
It would also appear that accident
do not figure so largely in the OF
ficers sideline as one not acquainted
with Chicago might believe.
The advertisement reads: IF you
find one Of your friends about to
be victimized under such circumstanc-
es, warn him! Suggest to him that he
visit either of the two estab-
lishments :" The prospective
corpse, on receiving the intimation
that he is a candidate for the atten-
lions Of a gunman's gat, is plainly told
that it is his duty as good citizen,
to strike blow at extortion by be-
coming client of a firm which spe-
cializes in decent funerals at low
costs. Gunner are growing SO To-
quacious nowadays that no citizen has
an excuse to neglect his funeral ar
rangements.
kHORGAN'S new 100000 900 loan to
wi France viii pay that worthy sew
en- per cent. It has twenty-five years
to go. Morgan is betting against the
social revolution, but whether he is
over optimistic or not, will not make
SO much difference to him personally.
1t is not likely that he will be en-
numbering the earth with his pres
ence twenty-five years from now. And
it is not at all likely, that capitalism
win be on top in France, when the
loan term expires.
THE hubbub in the Chicago police
| department continues. So does the
mystery of Dean O'Banion's death.
Hughes, the banqueting companion of
O'Banion is out Hughes is also a
relative of States Attorney Grove, re-
publican. Those who fired Hughes
are democrats. Glaring evidence Of
Groves carelessness in dealing with
gunner is coming to light Grove
was a fearless enforcer Of the law
against striking garment workers
pickets The gunner were immune
because they make good sluggers, in
strikes, on the side Of the bosses and
good ballot box thieves. The O'Ban-
ion murder, despite all efforts to
keep it in the grave, is a disagree
able nightmare to the capitalist lack
eys who rule Chicago.
VAIHEN the Workers Party was
wv planning to get out Commu-
mist daily, the New Leader, successor
to the New York Call, passed out OF
the picture. This is a bad omen"
said some comrades VINO feared The
DAILY WORKER would have short
life. But the reason for the demise
of the yellow socialist sheets is their
betrayal of the workers. The reason
for the fourishing condition Of The
DAILY WORKER. is its vigorous and
incorporating fight for the interests
of the workers. And the workers will
show their appreciation Of The DAILY
WORKER by insuring II for 1925. Ev-
cry militant reader Of our daily should
have an insurance policy in his pos
session to demonstrate his interest in
labcrs fighting organ. Take out your
insurance policy now!
