Steubenach farm of % acres, now
owned by Robert S. Gaskill, with the
idea of making new fair grounds
If satisfactory arrangements could
not be made to purchase the present
grounds from Mr.. Browne.
This new tract will make an ideal
spot for a fair grounds. 1t is loca-

committee will be made at another
public meeting to be held in the
court house at Mount Holly tomor'

HOLIDAY CROWDS
SWAMP FERRIES

Camden and South Jersey autoists,
returning from Philadelphia last
night, were caught in the worst
traffic jam of the year at the ferry
terminals.
The streets adjacent to both the
Market and Chestnut street ferries
in Philadelphia were jammed solid
with machines. AT time there was
a line of cars on Delaware avenue
from Market to South street. Police
became confused and had difficulty
in Strengthening out the tangle, SO
that motorists could choose between
the Pennsy and Reading ferries, in
stead of being forced into one line
and prevented from getting out Of
it,
The number Of autooists who
crossed the river yesterday was
13,494. The Pennsy carried SSH
and the Reading 4,683
Two extra boats on the Pennsy
and one on the Grading took care OF
the overflow crowd. The Pennsyi-
vania usually runs five boats from 10
until midnight and two after that.
Last night four boats were in OPP
Grafton.
The Reading operates four boats
from 10 to ~ and two from midnight
Last night three boats were operas-
ed but autoists were kept waiting
untia after / o'clock to cross.

In three-day short term finance
campaign, the Willingboro YMCA
Board will carry out carefully laid
plans for securing a very substan-
tial sum of money to apply on the
original cost and maintenance of the
new Community YMCA Hall which
was dedicated last April.
Eleven boys organized under the
supervision of the County Com
mittee into a YMCA group back in
1920 set the ball rolling, which has
finally resulted in carrying through
to such splendid completion this
building project.
Because there was no one In the
Group old enough to take title to
property and because of the growing
interest in the boys of the commun-
ity on the part of number of lead
ing citizens, local YMCA Board
was duly organized and incorpor-
ated. This board assumed the respon-
sibiIity for financing the erection
and completion of the new hall.
In commenting on this whole de-
velopment one of the board members
recently said, "That fine spirit of
progress in our boys SO enthused us
that we agreed to back them up,
help them build, help pay for the
Community Hall, and supervise the
proposition. Now that we are work
ing with them we are prouder than
ever of it."
''In talking the matter over some
time ago it seemed selfish of us
Directors to get most of the pleasure
ourselves out of helping our boys te
develop into real men," So one Of
the board made this proposition
LETS ask the people of the entire
community to support this YMCA
work and thus get some of the JOY
out Of helping the boys that we are
getting"

The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-03-05

This split had made itself felt and
had made it's advent turnout the
whole world even before the crea-
ton of the III International.
If we have had success that was
because we came when the situa-
ton was revolutionary and there
was already a labor movement in
all countries, and that is why
within Socialism and Anarchism
there has come split. This leads
turnout the world to the co-opera-
ton Of the Communist workers in
the creation of new organizations
and their unificatioR into the III
International. This is the way the
work can best be understood. /. 3. .
If we take into consideration the
present state of affairs we can say
that the III International is dead
and that the laboring masses in
Germany, England and France are
going over to the side of the Com
k1tuHfsts. =.

work, the Anarchists had no under
standing for this task. The war Gre
ated a revolutionary situation, and
it became evident that this old divi-
sion died away. On THE one hand
the elite Of Anarchism and Social
ism had become chauvinist, show
ing what it means to defend ones
own capitalist robbers against other
robbers of the capitalist class for
whose sake the war snatched away
millions of people. On the other
hand, in the lower strata Of the old
parties new currents were formed
against the war, against imperial
ism, for the social revolution. Thus,
as a consequence of the war the
deepest crisis arose, and the An
archists as well as the Socialists
split because the elite of the parlia-
mentary leaders of the Socialists
proved to be with the chauvinist
wing and only a constantly growing
minority held back and began to go
over to the side Of the revolution.
Thus the labor movement in all
countries entered upon a new road,
not the road Of the Anarchists and
Socialists, but the way which led to
the dictatorship of the proletariat.
