The question as to what has become of the thou
sands of former socialists of the "postofice is
cialism" type, of which the membership of the so
cialist party was largely composed, is answered
accidentally by Chandler Owen writing in ''The
Messenger" for September on "How the Negro
Should Vote" In.the course of the article he says
ROSS d. Brown, one of the best known and Oldest
Negro socialist lecturers, told me that he went to
Indiana to deliver address last year in a one
time socialist stronghold only to find that nearly
every socialist there had gone into the Ku KuS
Klan" We have always felt that anyone who could
develop taste for the puerilities of the Oneals
Hillquits, Bergers, ct al, would be intrigued by

was shown at the congress indicated
a deep seated discomfort on the part
Of the rank and file. The present
leadership Of the British trade unions
are being forced to the left reluctantly
and while opposing the Communists,
they are obliged to go half way in
meeting their demands in order to pla-
cate the rank and file. There is only
one kind Of progressive leadership and
that is Communist leadership. Elk
perience in the American labor move
ment has amply proven this.

The Dawes plan is causing much un-
easiness among the coal miners. It
seems that the miners are girding
their loins for another trial of strength
with the bosses and are looking
around for allies. The Scottish min
ers have Instructed the miners exc
cutive to approach the railwaymen
and transport workers with a view
to forming an alliance for defensive
and offensive purposes. We all re-
member the debacle of the former
Triple Alliance. But it was wrecked
by the reactionary leaders and not by
the rank and file.
HURNG the discussion several
- speakers pointed out that. the
failure Of the former effort should not
discourage further moves in the direc-
ton of strengthening the fighting
forces of labor. The former alliance
was only at the top; the next one
must be built from below. Sounds
almost like Zinoviev on the United
Front. The county sections of THE
miners were recommended to form To-
cal alliances. 1t must not be left in
the hands of the high officials. Robert
Smillie said the alliance should not be
confined to the miners, railwaymen
and transport workers but should
bring in all workers. Another speaker
regretted that the rank and file move
ments were not encouraged by lead
ers.
THE men who took part in this dis
L cussion are important trade union
leaders and while they are not all
Communists or perhaps, not even a
strong minority of them are Com
munists, such recommendations from
a powerful trade union body would
sound very strange to the ears of a
visitor to similar convention here in
the United States. The class struggle

Down the road of Beanstalk Land
went Nancy and Nick toward the red
house where the giant boy lived.
They could still hear him crying
because, as he had also told them, he
had TO go to the dentists with his
mother at 10 o'clock.
"Well fix it some way" Nick kept
saying. ~ don't blame him for cry
ing. Wen fix it so he doesn't have
10 co."
When they reached the house the
front door was shut, but they
climbed through the keyhole with
out any trouble at all.
The clock on the mantel said ex-
sctly half-past 9.
At that minute Mrs. Giant came
in and looked at the clock.
"My, N.Y. she exclaimed. Il didn't
know il was so latei shall have TO
be ready in IL minutes to talie John
ny to the dentists because it will
take us 10 minutes more TO get there.
I'll go right up and get washed and
change my dress and put on my hat. p"
No sooner had she gone than Nick
whispered, 81 know what TO do,
Nancy. Wen turn the clock back.
Come on! This brick msntel is easy
10 climb"
So up they went. not only because
they were good climbers but because
the magic shoes were a wonderful help
as well.
The next thing was to open the
big front door of the clock. This
was not so easy. but where there is
a will there is a way, and the glass
door swung open at last.
Nick hoped up and grabbed the
huge minute hand. and with all his
might, turned it back a whole hour.
Then they closed the clock again
and hid behind vase on the mantel.
In a few minutes down came
Jobnny's mother.

Nick hoped up and grabbed the huge minute hand.

I'll have TO call Johnny and wash
his face all over again." she said. Il
DO wish he would behave and not be
such a baby. He ought TO know that
if he wants any teeth when he gets
old, he will have TO have them kept
in good order when he is lit"
Suddenly she stopped for she hap
pened to look at the clock again.
Goodness alive" she cried. lis il

what it is to try 10 see without my
glasses. Well. well. well. / have

off my hat and sit down and sew I'M
Ill it's time 10 60.
So she got her sewing and was
very busy for 4 while.
All at once the telephone bell rang
and Mrs. Giant answered it. Il JUST
wanted to say that as you and John
ny are an hour late, | can't do any
thing for him today" said the den
fists voice. You'll have TO wait
until next week"
Il declare" said Mrs. Giant. SITS
too funny about that clock. l never
knew it TO be wrong before"
At that minute Johnny Giant came
bursting in, crying harder than ever.
Keep quiet, johnny said his
mother. "You don't have 10 go to the
dentists today"
But / want to-" roared Johnny.
"Tommy Jumbo gave me a bite Of
candy and I have the tOothache."
Nancy and Nick slipped down, and
out of the house.
III never try TO help anybody
again." declared Nick.

Nancy. But you wouldn't listen"

Hardly had they left or so it seem
cd to the Undetermined mind of
the proprietor of Adele Inc, when
the telephone on the desk tangled
imperatively. Miss Glaub lifted the
receiver and softly said hello.
"This is the Bigburg News. Where
can we get in touch with Miss Glaub?
Is she there?"
Miss Glaub smiled into the trans
mitter. Pm sorry" she saii calm
ly, "but Miss Glaub is not here. She

1t was ten o'clock, just twenty min
utes nfter the imperative summons Of
the Bigburg News. Humming a
snatch of popular blues, Miss Glaub
went into her little parlor and lit
the roseshaded lamp by the piano.
Then swapping off the chandelier
above, she lighted the two droplights
over the mantel. A cozy warm glow
flooded the pleasant room. From the
tiny boudoir she brought forth sew
eral large photographs and placed
them carelessly-but advantageously
about the room.
Miss Glaub was wondering whether
the News representative would be
young, when the buzzer in the hall an
nounced the caller. With agile grace
Miss Glaub draped herself in an easy
chair halfway between the pink light
near the piano and the soft droplight
over the mantel. Quickly her face
assumed the wan expression OF one
who has suffered deeply.
"Come in, please
