A girl came from the shadow
Of the vestibule. She stood be-
hind him as he took long
draw at his pipe. She smiled in
q shy, happy way and touched
Danes sleeve. His face softened.
Then his eyes that had been so
stern and quiet were laughing
down at her.
The girl flushed. She was q

color, pretty as rose.

NOW You Know"
She went down Post street-on
and on-hurrying, goading herself
bitterly as though she could es-
cape the gaunt, sickening despair
that went with her, growing dark
and overwhelming with each step.
She reached the Embarcadero,
where they had raced together
that happy day Of reunion nearly
eight months ago. She steadied
herself against a hydrant and very
precisely arranged her fur neck
piece. She murmured with stiff,
frigid lips: Now you know!

Dane dreamed they were

They swung out careless and glee-

girl said something with down

Dane colored and hesitated,

Incalculable Strength
to the Working Class

Militant workers all over the
country have begun to celebrate
the first anniversary of one of
the most outstanding events in
the history of the Communist
movement of America and the
world-the founding of the
DAILY WORKER, the first
Communist daily newspaper to
be printed in the English Ian
guage.
In New York an excellent concert
where professionals viii render fitting
revolutionary entertainment will be
given at the New Star Casino, 107th

start, with splendid entertainment in
between.
The entire staff Of the DAILY
WORKER will be present at the first
birthday party given In Chicago, Mon.

2409 N. Halsted st. This celebration
is reported in another column.

playing a prominent part in the Chi.
cago Ladies' Garment Workers strike
the strike of the Paterson, N. ]. silk
workers, the Pullman and Hegewisch
carbuilders' strikes, and many other
skirmishes Of the class struggle. The
DAILY WORKER has been an meal
culable power for strengthening the
working class in the left wing fights
in the carpenters machinists,' min.
ers, and many other trade unions.
Wherever the workers have battled
for power, the DAILY WORKER has
been at hand to press the immediate
demands Of the workers in their every.
day struggles. The DAILY WORKER
has been the standard bearer of the
American Communist movement, raj
lying the workers to demand control
of industry and government, and the
overthrow Of the employing class.
When the call came for the DAILY
WORKER readers to establish fund
to insure the DAILY WORKER for
1925, the response was immediate and
substantial, and the workers are con-
tinuing to respond.

members Of the state legislature
realize the difficulties Of forcing the
state legislature to consider measures
that would be beneficial to the work
ing masses. 1t becomes apparent that
only an organized struggle can bring
the needs Of the farmers to the fore
in the present session Of Legislature.
Dividing the spoIIs,
That there is little difference be-
tween the ofiice-holding non-partisan
leaguers and the ]. v. A. undependent
voters association, is to be seen by
the compromise arrangement agreed
on in the senate the first day Of the
legislative session. Under this agree
ment, control and jobs are divided and
the. non-partisans will drop contests
of senate seats.
There is much talk of harmony,
Lieutenant Gov. Maddox Qeaguerl
declaring that the senate would do
much good for the state by working
without bitterness Of feeling" SorIie,
the new non-partisan governor, is al.
SO for Cooperation" All this, Of
course, simply means that the ex-
ploiters Of the farmers have the up
per hand.
It Is common talk among the rank
and file leaguers in many parts Of the
state, who are still imbued with the
militant spirit, that there is no funda-
mental difference between the rival"
political factions in North Dakota.
The Communist Legislator.
To Offset this degraded compromise
and political trading, A. C. Miller. the
Communist member Of the legislature.
is rousing considerable enthusiasm
among the farmers for the Workers
Party program which is fundamentally
based upon the need for unity between
the poor working farmers and the in
dustrial workers.
Comrade Miller stresses this great
need and the broad nature OF the class
struggle which these poor farmers
and workers must fight together
against exploiting classes. He Is in

powers to do the job. Since then, rail-
roads have not been bothered with
any serious strikes and the railroad

get used to the presence of Daugherty
in Washington. The next election is
a long way off and democrats and
'progressives" were interested in get
ting Daugherty's scalp only because
they believed such an operation would
bring them votes.
Expecting More Trouble.
Big business knows that It is not
thru with labor troubles. But it is
taking precautions. Daugherty secured
a wealth Of experience during his term
of Office. He is one of the white-haired
boys OF big business. He does his
stuff" as he is told and it was uu-
fortunate that he had to be made a

donkeys.
