juvenile literature are eagerly partici-
pating in the work of the circle.
DASSING on to the literature for the
4 older children, it is of course
necessary to take into account the far
more extensive circle of interests
characteristic Of this older group. The
sessions Of the commission have thus
far approved the publication of books
in the following fields:
1. Books on Production-As dis
tinguished from textbooks and books
of a popular scientific character, the
description Of the various trades and
industries is here to be combined with
a tale, narration of some plot. A
book on the origin and evolution Of
the book (from the earliest times)
has been approved and published. A
book Tin verse) on the printing of
modern books is being prepared. An
other book in verse has been approved
dealing with the tractor and its i'm
portance for Russian agriculture. Au-
thors were recommended to treat sub
jects from all fields Of the national
economic life.
2. Books Dealing with the Past
The commission has resolved that the
historical literature prepared for the
consumption of the older children
must present to their minds in a pop
ular way the labors and struggles of
past generations without indulging in
too many details. Special attention is
to be given to Russian history and to
the circumstances which brot about
the revolution. A comparison be-
tween the present and the most re-
cent past is to be made possible, and
the children are to be encouraged to
combat such remnants of the old sys-
tenn as are still in existence. A num-
Der of books Of this kind have already
appeared; others are in course of
preparation.
3. The New Social Life.-This sub
ject Is being taken up along very
broad lines and includes the new life
of the children in city and country,
the schools, the ch1ldren'S homes etc.
A number of publications have al
ready been examined and some have
already come from the press.
4. The Civil War.-Books dealing
with this subject fully satisfy the ma
tural appetite Of the older children
for stories of action and adventure.
The commission has made 1t a prin-
ciple, in this connection, that both
brutality and sentimentalitY must be
stunned in equal degree, while the
goals and objects Of the struggle must
be emphasized. A number of such
books are now going thru the press
es, some of them dealing with the
share Of the children in these strug-

the ringing of the church bell of the

that the sexton had mistaken Saturday
for Sunday, and, with the auditorium

the bell to call the worshipers to

A truck load of parcel post ship
ments, that were being carted from
the international Tailoring COM
pany, S47 Jackson Blvd, to the post
office, were destroyed by fire under
most peculiar circumstances.
What Did the Driver Do?
According to the story told by the
police and the company heads, truck
as it passed 727 w. Van Buren, street,
was stopped by number of gunmen,
gasoline poured over the parcels and
then match applied. The gunner
then, sped away and the driver un-
hitched the horses from the burning
wagon. The company officials blame
the burning onto the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers members, who are
now on their eighteenth week Of their
strike.

AMALGAMATED
BANK HEADS
fire SHAFIR
Left-Wing Fight in the
A. F. of L., His Crime

The officials Of the AmaIgamated
Trust and Savings Bank, a labor"
bank, has fired Joseph Shafir, left
wing bank clerk, for introducing re-
solutions at the American Federation
Of Labor calling for the recognition
Of Soviet Russia and world trade
union unity and denouncinn class col
laboratlon.
Joseph Shair was expelled first
from the Bank Clerks Union at the
instructions OF the bank head, Ma
riempietri to Duane Swift and Max
Tulchin, for violating the union con-
stftution." When Shair demanded
that Duane Swift produce the article
in the American Federation of Labor
or bank clerks constitution which he
violated all Duane Swift could do
was read an article in the Federation
News attacking Shafir.
When an article exposing the col
lusion of the bank heads and a num-
Der of hirelings who were in the move
to drive Shafr out of the union was
printed, Mariempietri told Shafir,
that if he "acted right" he could stay
until January l. Shafir instead of re-
naming quiet and allowing his ex-
pulsion from the union to quietly pass
by, published a statement telling of
the conspiracy to get rid of him from
the union and the bank.
A few days later, a meeting of the
banks board of directors was held,
where the question of Shafir's ex-
pulsion from the union was discussed
and his discharge from the bank de-
cided on.
Wednesday, fifteen minutes before
quitting time at the bank Mariem-
pietri called Shafir to one side and
Sam Levine, one of the heads of the
bank, head of the Chicago joint board
of the Amalgamated Clothing Work
ers, and general executive board
member of the union, discharged
Shafir after a well-memorized piece
of slap-stick oratory, beginning with,
there comes time in the life of
humans when they must part-(and
then after his five-and-ten oratorical
demeanor and voice played OUT
you're services are no longer re-
quired."
He refused to give Shafr any rea-
son for the discharge.

new cabinet is merely a temporary
makeshift. Painleve is to go before

without definite program. Then the

BRAND Next Premier
The present political muddle and
the rapid fall of the franc has placed
the stamp of death upon the second
Painleve cabinet before it is really
organized. Aristide BRAND, whose
policy is swinging far more toward
Britain than ever before will be the
next premier. He is striving TO pre-
vent France falling under the dead
weight Of Dawes plan and realizes
full we'll, possibly better than any
other bourgeois politician of France,
the growing antagonism in every part
of the world between Britain and
America. His diplomacy will be dir

ism to get the support of England to
resist the impending disaster that
will ultimately place France in the

is Germany today.
