AS WE SEE IT
By 7. J. o,FLAHERTY.

The Prince of Wales paid a visit
to Paris recently and INDUCED in
much fox trotting. Perhaps the royal
parasite is aiming to proficiency IN
the terpsichorean art, fearing lest
the growing power of the British
labor movement may send him sour
rying in search of a meal ticket. 1t
is also significant that one of his most
appreciated Partisan treasures was a
collection of Jazz Music which was
gwen to him by a colored American
orchestra. What a hit the prince
would make as orchestra leader in
the Drake Hotel? The Count Won
Hoogstraten would take a back seat.
Senator Hiram Johnson will tell
the people of Chicago what he thinks
OF the political gum shoe artist, Cal
win Coolidge, when he speaks here on
Friday night. Hiram is a great
friend of the Common people," He
is out for clean politics. He con-
dennis Coolidge for his manipulation
of the Southern vote, but CAP will
have a delegation of Washington ne
groes on hand to prove to the "peo-
pie" that Hiram is prejudiced against
the negro, hence his anger. In order
to prove that he has no objection to
getting the negro vote, Coolidge and
Mrs. Coolidge visited an old colored
butler in Washington last Sunday.
It is an interesting game and no
doubt will intrigue the Henry Dubbs.
Meanwhile the Federated Farmer
Labor Party is crystallizing the SEN
timent for great nationwide Farm
er-Labor Party.
The Egyptian nationalists won a
tremendous victory in the recent
elections held in that country. With
out the full returns being in, it is
announced that the Zaghloulists have
100 seats, leaving "a to the combined
opposition parties.
The capitalist newspapers are
again gorging themselves with the
details of the latest murder mystery.
An Aurora horticulturist confessed to
having killed his wife after she had
killed her brother. The revolving de-
tails of this horrible crime are spread
over the pages Of the capitalist
dailies. Sex perversion, murder,
crime is served up to the public by
the journalistic proft-gluttons who
profess to be so much concerned
about public decency. The readers
of the capitalist press have gotten
the "crime habit" They are trained
to look for sensational slush, and
they get plenty Of it.
Frank E. kellogg, American ambas-
sador to the Court of st. James, pre-
sented his credentials to King George
at Buckingham Palace a few days
ago. The ambassador and the en-
bassy staff, drove to the palace and
returned in the gorgeous, gilded royal
coaches reserved for occasions of
state. The ambassador was minus
the Harvey knee Dreeches s71 sss .sS
palatial mansion donated by j. P.
Morgan is yet unfinished.
President Frank L. Carey Of the
Chicago Board of Trade, does not
like "blocs." They are the cause of
most political evils in his opinion.
Oh. this COMPOUNDED class struggled
I'VE ma, says carey, our leglsld-
ture divided into cliques and blocs
and our national congress split into
definite groupings to further class
interest. We find new political move
ments developing from class feeling
with the leaders noisily claiming pub
lie attention, but failing to do sim
gle constructive thing in behalf of
the nation. Keep the bloc system
out of the grain exchange" he pero-
rated. Carey wants only one bloc,
the capitalist bloc.
