Fascism's Only Enemy

Nothing shows clearer the breakdown of italian
fascism than the resignation of General BalbO,
commander-in-chi of the fascist militia, follow
ing the publication of a letter written by him to
the head of the fascist organization in Bologna.
The letter itself confirms everything its bitterest
enemies, the Communists have said of fascist me-
thods and reveals in official communication the
coldblooded bestiality of the Mussolini regime.
The letter written by the deposed general was
inspired by the acquittal by jury of three Com
munists charged with killing some fascist The
acquitta itself is ample evidence of the weakness
Of fascisms grip on the masses.
The letter says in part:
AS for those Communists, you had better explain
to them that change Of air would do their health
good and that they had better themselves
to another province. If they insist remaining
you had better beat them up-8ithout exaageraton,
but systematicay-till they make up their minds.
Show this part Of my letter to the prefect Of Bologna
and say to him in my name that have plenty Of
evidence to justify my demand not to allow such
desperados to reside in my city province. The
police would do we'll to persecute them by OBTAINING
them at headquarters at least once week, and It
would be we'll if the prefect were to let the kings
prosecutor understand that do not wish any law
suits a result of beatines up (Which must be
performed in the grand style).
When Gary and Dawes endorse the Mussolini
methods we can understand now exactly what they
have in mind. Note that it is the Communists who
rome in for these pleasant attentions--they and
the workers they organize and inspire the only
lorce that fascism fears.
That this communication had the sanction of
Mussolini is shown by the sentence with which
lhe murderous Balbo concluded his letter: "If I
write you from Rome it is because 1 know what
am saying"
Let us get this clear The American fascist
Dawes, the fascist American Legion which sup
thine which has united front with the legion and
which is preparing to absorb the Amsterdam Inter-
national to smooth the road for the Dawes plan
IN Europe, are all Of one piece They all fight the
Communist Party just as do the Italian fascist
The only reason that their methods differ in
degree is because the class struggle in America is
not yet as intense as it is in Italy.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 3d.
The French ambassador, Jules Jusser-
and, has begun informal and prelimin-
ary discussion with Andrew Mellon,
secretary Of the United States trea-
sury. looking to the funding Of the
French debt, originally a borrowed
sum Of $3,340, SOC, 1916, to which unpaid
and accumulated interest has added
$750,O00,000.
France has long been hedging on
paying anything to the United States,
while at the same time furnishing Po-

The BGttIeship Blues

In an editorial entitled "The Naive Yellow
Press" the Milwaukee Leader, organ of the social
list party boldly accuses Wall Street of betraying
the American nation.
The proof it adduces to support its statement is
interesting for more than one reason. This proof
consists in the statement that the betrayal was ac
romplished by the scrapping of the battleship
Washington.
The Leader says.
The enemy who sold the nation lives in Wall
Street and .uphods the banner Of 100 per cent
Amerieanism. The interests Of the American ma
tion betrayed for the simple that the
House Of Morgan and its steel trust directors ruled
the Washington conference with single eye to
their private profit.
It pays the steel trust and Morsans finance
sharps to have the American taxpayers money
thrown into the sea into the bottomless
European pit All the wanton waste Of ship scrap
ping munton wasting, blasting and bombing
means more fat contracts for the nterlocking
Iooters. That's the simple Of the Washington
conference. There is no need to look for any other.
The thing that irks the Leader apparently is the
Tact that batteships munitions and the taxpayers
money are wasted instead of being used in good
Oldfashioned war like we used to have in 1914-1S
The Leader is against this kind of inefficient mill
tarism.
1t wants the workers murdered by the imperial
lists with the smallest possible expenditure of the
taxpayers money in the best Hearstian style and
It feels even an old batteship might be useful
Down with this sinful extravaganza, says the
Leader, or the taxpayers will become so disgusted
that they will not fight for the nation any more
The prospect appalls the Leader.
This is the way to socialism--va the socialist
party.

MUSIC = By Alfred V. Fr0nkenstein

"The Divine Poem," the third sym.
phony of Alexander Scriabin, was
played on the seventh program of the
Chicago Symphony orchestra at Or
chestra Hall last Friday and Saturday.
Scriabin in his symphonies attempts
to express philosophic ideas in tone,
and almost succeeds. The titles Of
the movements of "The Divine Poem"
are Strife" "Sensuous Pleasures, .
and Divine Activity" The kick in
hearing the symphony is not in ap-
preciating the philosophy of the
music, but in the hearing of the music
itself. 1t is all melodic, and the
melody is of vast power and scope.
The interpretative directions thruout
the score are delightful Scriabin
used large, mouth-filling French words
such as "mysterieux, romantique, leg
endaire," and "doux, limpide," and
again "haletant allie" (breathlessly
winged.)
A most unusual man, this Alexander
Scriabin. Toward the end Of his life
he conceived of an art combining
sound, light and smell in one whole.
His color organ has recently been
achieved, but an instrument for pro
iecting odors arranged in scale and
played from notation is yet long
way off.
Another Russian work, the piano
concerto OF Nicholas Medtner, played
here for the first time by its com.
poser, came before the symphony. II
is probably the dulIest, most stupid,
Ilong-winded piano concerto every
played in Orchestra Hall. It is worse
han the Dohanyi concert and that is
saying the utmost in condemnation.
The well known overture to the op.
laretta "The Secret Of Suzanne" by
Wolf-Ferrari, and the better known
Z. fiat or Clarinet" symphony OF
Mozart, opened the program.

WeatherUones Back

Weathervanes, popular century
ago, and which disappeared from gen
eral use about generation back, are
coming into vogue again in America.
This probably is due TO the increasing
use of copper as a weatherproof mate
rial for the yanes, and the revival If
colonial architecture. In contrast ia
weathervanes of the past, which were
conventional arrows, horses, or birds,
gilded the new weathervanes are more
works of art. and lack the garish ap-
pearance impaired by gold leaf

brown, blue, green, orange or coral

that spice them up just enough.
One CT these trim and practical and
seasonable suits is pictured here, made
up with popular box coat and plain
skirt. Bars and stripes tempt the de-
signers to do without any sort of trim
ming and confine themselves to deco

the suit-as bias bands, collar, cuffs
and pockets, cut on the bias of the

Sunshine of Importance
at Hog-FarroWing Time

The Importance of having windows
placed In the hog house so that the
sun will shine into the beds at farrow-
ing time is said by swine specialists
to be of no small moment. To enable
farmers to meet this need, E. R. Gross,
professor Of rural engineering at the
New Jersey college of agriculture, New
Brunswick, gives simple rule based
upon the angle Of the suns rays.
"a south window feet above the
floor will throw the rays Of the sun
on the floor feet 2 inches away from
the wall and one in the roof g feet
above the floor would let them strike
beneath the window. Thus the first
window will furnish sunshine to the
pen on the south side of the house
while the second window will supply
It to the north pen. The exact loca-
ton for the upper window must de-
pend upon the width Of the house.
The wider the building, the higher
must the upper window be placed.
These figures are taken for noon,
March 1, which is the beginning Of the
season. There is only a
slight variation for north and south
Jersey. The height and location Of
windows for any floor arrangement
may easily be figured from the rule
just given, which is, Of course, ap-
plIcable to buildings other than hog
houses"

These dowel sticks should fit very
tightly, so that some pressure Is re-
quired to force them into the spool
hole, otherwise some Of the crystal
grains may fall out.
The two small brass angles are now
attached to the ends Of the spool by
means Of the machine screws Gig. H..
The detector Is then placed on the
panel or base and the holes for mount
ing 1t are marked and drilled. Fig.
shows how the detector is mounted.
The wires leading from the cat whis-
kers are wound around or soldered to
the heads of the bolts and connec-
lions to the set are made from Jugs
placed between the two nuts on the
ends Of each bolt.
When all Is complef"d the detector
may be given really 'usinesslike ap-
pearance by two or three coats OF
shiny black enamel.
To adjust the detectcr, tap the thin
part Of the spool with the end Of a
pencil. A sensitive spot will soon be
found. If after use the adjustment
loses its sensitivity somewhat a few
more taps with the pencil will again

saDdpaper about 9 inches by 1 inch
Is then rolled into a narrow tube and
pushed back and forth a few times
through the hole In the spool. The
ST Dol is then held to the lips and the
breath blown forcefully through the
hole to expel the sawdust.
The dowel stick Is now split in
half lengthwise and a Pinch length
Of No. 26 or % wire is placed between
the two halves so that about three-six-
teenths of an inch of the wire pro-
jects from the end Of the dowel stick,
as shown in Fig. 2. The stick Is then
pushed into the spool hole about one
fourth of the length of the spool and
is then cut off flush with the end Of
the spool. Care should be taken not
to break the wire IN cutting off the
surplus end Of the stick.
A crystal is now broken into little
pieces by a heavy blow with large
headed hammer. These pieces are
tested for sensitiyity by the method
shown in Fig. 8.

The most sensitive pieces are then
pulverized into a coarse powder with

not to touch the crystal grains with
the fingers, since this would spread
a thin film of oil over them and rem
der them practically useless. These
grains are scooped up with a piece of

IN THE spring youthful fancies
lightly turn to all sorts of things
none Of them Except affairs Of the

Stylists are sure of appreciation
when they adapt the modes to younger

welcome TO those sprightly suits,

which vary the tailored mode this sea-

ors in clothes for the street. Light
tan, beige, brown and kindred tones
provide the dominant colors in these
fiannels, with tan and beige in the
