The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-02-16
By AUGUST THALHEIMER (Berlin)

German bourgeoisie, which is far
better organized, is modifying its
reserves before the defeat. What
is now taking place in Germany, is
the last round of that struggle be-
tween the bourgeoisie and the Com
munist Party for the reserves, for
the Indifferent and Social Democrat
ic workers and for the middle class.
This struggle for the reserves is
the essential content of the political
preparation for the proletarian revo-
luton.
The Foreign Communist Parties
must not allow themselves to be
discouraged by the October retreat,
which was unavoidable, and was
grounded in the total situation. The
Communist Party of Germany has,
after short pause, undertaken the
reordering of its ranks, and is pre-
pairing for a fresh struggle. The
prOletarian Revolution in Germany
is on the march. None of the fun
damental problems of the country
can be solved by the military die
tatOrship. Our foreign brother par
ties must clearly understand, that
if the Russian Revolution in the
year 1917 took a quite unexpected
course, which differed from all pre-
vious bourgeois revolutions, the
proletarian revolution in Germany
has its own course, its own tempo
and its own methods.

BOLSheUiSnt
By EDWARD JAMES IRVINE.

The Earth was calmly shimmying on
its orbit
When the Bolsheviks came along and
pushed it off.
Old God, the most respectable citizen
of heaven,
Slept peacefully on a couch of rank
alfalfa
Till the Russian revolution killed Him
with heart failure.
Then the devil was found to be a
good scout after all
And was given a job training white
guard armies.

Steamers Reported Caught in Ice Floes Near Nome
Investigator Ayers Church
Is Rapidly Losing Ground


NEW YORK. juno 15.-Results
OF exhaustive rest arches showing
that Professionalism is rapidly losing
its grip IN rural America, were made
ptblic today by the Institute OF So
cial and Religious Research, of this
city, in its report of a recently com
pleted study Of thousands of rural
Protestant churches.
The study shows by attendance
data. according to Tie institute, that
the Influence of the church in the
country, its supposed stronghold and
inexhaustible recruiting ground. is
now only half as grfat. as II was a
generation ago. Yet eWdence of the
church's decline is not the only fea-
ture of the report that will prove
disturbing, especially to denomina-
tional executives.
The purpose of Institute Of Social
and Religious Research is to apply
scientific methods to the study of
social and religious problems. The
governing body Is composed OF John
r. Mott. chairman; Ernest T. Bur
ton, secretary; Raymond b. Fosdick,

are misleading and should be dis
enrded ~.
The report is a volume of more
than 200 pages which is published
today for the Institute under the
title Diagnosing the Rural Church.
In it DR.. Fry presents the results
of an exhaustive scientific study,
based on extensive surveys, in Il
way to show that the real situation

of churches by denominational exc
