The Party and Class That Made 1t Possible

Rally around your Soviets.
Strengthen them. Take hold your
selves of this task, from below, and
wage relentless warfare on all at
tempts at anarchy on the part OF
drunkards, hooIigans, counter-revo-
lutionists, Junkers, Korniovites.
Introduce strict control over pro-
duction and an inventory Of prod
ucts. Arrest and bring before the
revolutionary tribunals Of the peo-
pie, all persons who lnjure the cause
Of the people, whether this injury
takes the form Of sabotage (destruc-
ton and Interruption Of production,
or that Of boarding supplies Of
grains or products, or that Of hold
ing up carloads of grain, or dlsor-
ganlzing the activity Of the rail-
roads, telegraph, post office, and in
general, any form Of opposition to
the great common cause Of peace,
Of assuring to the worker control
over the production and distribution
of goods.
Comrades: workers, soldiers, pea
SAINTS, all who TOLL Put all the
power IN your districts into the
hands Of your Soviets. Preserve and
guard as the apple of your eye, the
land, grain, the factories, tools, prod
ucts, transportation = all these are
henceforth your common posses
sion. Gradually, in agreement with
the majority of the peasantry, and
with their approval, as we learn the
lessons Of their practical experience
and that of the workers, we shall
advance steadfastIy and unwaver-
ingIy to the realization of socialism,
in which we shall be aided by the
advanced workers Of the most civil
lied countries and which will give
to the nations permanent peace and
delivery from all oppression and
from all exploitation.
When Communists are accused Of
being visionary, Of neglecting the
practical" things, Of underestimate
ing the Importance Of the petty re-
forms Of which the liberals and So
cialists and other practical" persons
make major detectives, and if this
criticism weighs upon them, it would
be we'll to read at such times the pro-
clamation of the first workers govern
ment in the world-a document SO
practical and at the same time so
revolutionary that capitalism will ne
yer recover from the effect it pro-
duced
So was the Russian revolution born.
It has written many brilliant pages Of
working class history since but none
of them are so filled with lessons for
the worlds workers as the record of
the eight months from March to No
vember, 1917.
Built on the solid foundation Of
communist knowledge and the work
ing class will to power, the Union Of
Socialist Soviet Republics forces re-
cognition from its enemies the world
over-enemies whose strength de-
clines in proportion to the speed with
which the working class learns the
lessons of the Russian Revolution.

LETTER FROM RUTH ELLINGTON
TO LESLIE PRESCOTT.
MY DEAR LESLIE:

MY DEAR LESLIE:
1 have certainly gotten in bad with
Jack now if 1 never did before. You
see, / made the deal with the black.
mailing gentleman and bought the
pearl for four thousand dollars, which
think was a pretty good stroke of
business.
Not knowing what to 90 with it and
the remainder of the money--for l
did not dare deposit it to my account
I decided I would go and put it in the
safety deposit vault in your bedroom.
l arrived at your place about five
oclock in the afternoon and was just
opening your vault when, without
any warning. Jack came in. Natur-
ally he looked surprised and very sus-
pIcious.
I informed him that l had made
some stupendous sales and did not
right away and that I was sure you
would not mind my using the vault
for a night or two.
He jumped at the conclusion that
Harry was sending me money and that
did not want to deposit 1t, on ac-
count of Harry's creditors who might
attach it. He said Immediately. You
needn't feel at all alarmed about me,
Ruth, although am Harry's largest
creditor. but would rather you would
not leave the money In Lesle's wall
sale. In fact, I think Leslie is "ery
foolish to have given you the combi-
nation. I myself did not know It,"
He was perfectly furious, Leslie,
and l very meekly took my little roll
Of bills-which by the way was not
50 little, and was sure that he had
measured its size--and put 1t in my
pocket. In doing 80 that troublesome
pearl fell upon the floor.
Fortunately It was rolled up in It's
for it and reached it at about the same
time--at least our heads came to-
gether with a terrible conclusion.
II beg your pardon" l said.
Jack was so angry that I knew he
would burst II he didn't swear, so I
said. Go ahead and say it." And
he certainly said it. Leslie.
In a voice OF cutting coldness he
mentioned that he hoped he would
never find me prying into his wife's
secret hiding places again when she
was away. In fact, that he would
feel better II he knew his wife never
met me again.
I fed and there the matter stands.
Sorry. but that's all

GEE GEE.
You risk your whole future happi-
ness by considering marriage with
such a man. You have set your
standard too low. a neglectful flance
will not make a thoughtful husband.
A f1ance who would fail to keep Ell
gagements with the girl he pretends
to love would not hesitate to let his
wife wait and wait and wait.
Send him away. and be thankful
you discovered these faults before you

Speeding Good Road to
Every Farmers Gate Now
State Apportions 100000 of Aid
Among Counties for Improve
ments on Local Roads

Stearns county this week received
notice of its 1924 state road aid allot-
ment of $31,750, against $3l,592
paid in state aid taxes.
The state aid law operates to COM
pei counties of high assessed valua-
ton totals to contribute toward the
public road funds of counties with
less taxable wealth. State road aid
taxes in Hennepin, ST. Louis and
Ramsey counties exceed the aggre-
gate appointments to those coun-
ties by nearly 100000 this year.
That sum is divided among the other
counties, plus the amounts they pay
in, with the result that " receive
more than they pay and the remain
ing twelve break about even
Nick Thomey, county auditor, re-
ceived the notice from Charles M.
Babcock, state highway commissioner,
who with Henry Rines, state treasur-
er and R. P. Chase, state auditor,
made the appointments. The state
money will be available for use this
year by the county on the designated
roads.
The fund is made up of $1,980,00C
of taxes from the state l-mlll levy
5000 of U. S. government land re-
ceipts, $3,4OO of Babcock cream test
license fees and $4,000 of interna
improvement lands interest.
Hennepin, Ramsey and St. Louis
counties pay $834,918 of state roac
aid taxes, including those collected il
Minneapolis, st. Paul and Duluth
and their appointments are only
$4,000. The difference of about
$685. 900 is divided among Other
counties with the result that the large
majority receive considerably more
than they pay into the fund for i'm,
provements on county roads.
The state aid plan is another fea.
ture of Minnesota highway laws
framed to hasten " a good road to
every farm gate" in the state. More
than a third of the motor vehicle tax
it is generally known, is paid in the
three large counties, but all expend.
ed on the most used rural Highways
of Minnesota.
