The Fascinating Story of
Cafritz-Petworth
The most stupendous development euer ATTEMPTED in
Washington Real Estate-and its wonderful success

In my mind | had only the one
idea of developing a community
that would benefit Washington and
Washingtonians-and | put my en-
tire resources of money and mind
INTO the carrying forward of the
proposition.
We bought building material by
the train load; placed fixtures and
equipment orders reckoned in mil
lions of dollars-all factors in
these two great purposes-BEST
HOMES AT LOWEST PRICES.
Soon the delight Of civic service
overshadowed the thought of Pc
cuniary gain-and | plunged still
more energetically into the under
taking from sheer love for achieve
ment.
Out of this undeueloped tract
has groWn CAFRITZ-PET-
WORTH OF NEARLY A THOU
SAND HOMES. Planned on the
BEST LINES conceivable; built
of the BEST MATERIALS pro-
curable; and by the BEST
CRAFTSMEN my executives
could select. Homes that /
am proud to be the builder
OF. Homes that every purchaser
KNOWS represent the BEST
VALUE HIS MONEY CAN BUY.
Homes that are more than places
to live".,they are family shrines,
where the music Of children.
laughter and the peaceful con-
tentment of domesticity are lived
under the most ideal conditions.
Every comparison you make
yields tribute to the matchIess ex-
cellence of the 'Life-time" Homes
in Cafritz-Petworth. The size of
the rooms, the plan and finish, the
big porches, the character of the
Bathroom fittings and heating sys-
tem-the deep lots-are all corrob-
Grating arguments that NO
WHERE ELSE ARE SUCH
HOMES TO BE FOUND-and
the price and terms reflect the
equitable sharing Of the savings
resulting from the magnitude of
this development.
Tempted by the signal success
spectators are constantly seeking
to buy entire groups of these
Homes their offers are in
stantly declined because we are
pledged to the protection of these
communities-and the personnel
of the neighborhoods included in
Cafritz-P Petworth-and to YOU.
The allurements of profit do not
compare with the pride of having
given to Washington a City of
Wonderful Homes and Happy
Owners.

Rubles of Car and

Spectators Told

PEKIN, April 26.-The Rosta cor
respondent learns in the embassy of
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
that enquiries have been coming in
lately about the so-called czarist rub
les, a certain amount of which has
been kept by some Chinese merchants,
and that, at the same time, it has
come to the knowledge Of the embassy
that there are INSCRIPTIONS people
who are misleading Chinese commerce
ial circles in this matter and are spec
ulating in those quite valueless scraps
OF paper.
1t was declared at the embassy of
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
that, as the embassy had stated on
many previous occasions, the paper
money issued under the czarist
regime, as well as that issued by
Kerensky's government, has now lost
all value and are no longer in circu-
lation in the Union Of Soviet Repub-
lies.
The question OF those bills will not
be discussed at the pending Soviet.
Chinese conference, so that no specu.
lation in that paper money could pos.
sibly bring any profits to those en-.
gagged in same.

They have been true soldiers of the

release from prison and their right to

The workers of America, with the
American Communists leading the

FIGHT AGAINST
BULGAR TERROR
Mass Meeting Tuesday
at Manhattan Lyceum

NEW YORK, April 26-The Fan
kov government of Bulgaria has been
terrorizing the mass of workers and
peasants since 1923, when Stambu-
lisky, the leader of the peasants
party, was assassinated by the same
bloody zankov government.
Three members of the British par
Lament were in Bulgaria at the time
of the cathedral explosion and the re-
prisals against the revolutionary
workers. They professionals did even
the American and British ministers.
This did not stay the murderous hand
Of Zankov. A wave of the hand of a
police official and hundreds and thous-
ands of workers were sent to death.
The social-democrats voted unani-
mously with the government for &C
tion against the revolutionists. Never
theless a leader Of the social-demo-
Gratis declares that the masses were
provoked to the madness and had no
other means of redress against the
white terror of the Zankov govern
ment. The military league is in
power in Bulgaria and the Bulgarian
people, tired of looking toward the
West, now turn toward the big Slav
brother in Moscow" This "rabid
anti-Communist" admits that a prole-
tartan revolution is the only hope for
the Bulgarian workers and peasants.
The workers of the United States
must show their solidarity with the
workers and peasants who are bleed
ing for a third time. At Manhattan
Lyceum, 66 E. 4th St., the workers of
New York will protest against the
brutal slaughter of the Bulgarian
workers. On Tuesday, April %, at s
p. M, mass protest demonstration
called by the Workers Party, the
Young Workers League and the Inter
national Workers Aid will take place
All class conscious and revolutionary
workers of New York must attend and
voice their protests.

fine example of the education" that
is thrust down the Threats of working
class children and the manner of en-
forcing it upon the pupils is seen in
the victory Of the ku klux khan in put
ting over its bill in the state legisla-
ture for compulsory bible reading in
the public schools.
It requires that ten verses of the
bible be read daily and that all pupils
in the fourth and all higher grades
memorize the golden rule and the ten
commandments"
Combined with this compulsory
opiate for workers children is the
ruling Of Superintendent Vernon M.
Reigel of the state department of edu.
cation in a circular letter to all Ohio
superintendent Of schools saying that
physical punishment may be given to
pupils by teachers "altho the punish
ment is unnecessarily excessive with.
out being liable civilly or criminally."
The teachers of the state are thus
given carte blanche to go as far as
they like in beating pupils who may
resist the religious hokum being
thrust upon them. The ruling says
that teachers have the same right
to beat up the children as parents
have, another revealing quality of cap.

born workers, the capitalists drive
down their wages; and then these
low wages are used as a weapon to
break up the unions and drive down
the wages of ALL WORKERS. De-
portation is a capitalist class meas
ure, directed against the entire work
ing class.
The case of Zinich is particularly
dastardly attempt of the same kind
that has been repeated again and
again by the U. S. government. The
reactionary elements of the South
Slav population, the servants of CAPT
talism, evidently inspired the immi-
grafton authorities to arrest Zinich,
hoping thereby to remove a man who
was theoretically participating in the
struggle to organize the South Slav
workers and unite them with all the
workers of America and the world.
Such a denunciation made secretly
and without zinich having an oppor-
tunity to confront his accusers, dem
onstrated not only the treacherous ma
ture of the reactionary elements
among: the South Slays, but shows in
bright light the role of the govern
ment as dictatorship Of the capital
list class.
We call the attention of the South
Slavic workers particularly, to the
vicious participation in this assault
against the working class, on the part
Of a certain paper which makes pre-
tence Of being a workers" paper
the Novy Swijet Not content with re-
joicing that Comrade zinich has been
seized by the capitalist government,

creating suspicion in the minds of

But the workers see the capitalist
governmental machinery in its
true light as the agent OF the CAPT,

the sham democracy which Expresses
them. And they see clearly also the
