THE reason that Incorporation" Tin
1 the sense of theuconsumers' coop
erative movement) iss not enough to
solve the problems Of the working
class; is that we afe living under
capitalism, which, under the forms of
parliamentary democracy, imposes a
dictatorship of the Eeapitalist class
upon the toiling masses. Until this
dictatorship of the bourgeoisie is
broken, and the power of the working
class made supreme, the working class
must concentrate its main attention
upon crystallizing itssclass leadership
and mobilizing it's class forces, for the
struggle against capitalism.
Cooperation Can Help in Glass
Struggle.
The cooperative movement can be
used to the advantage of the workers
in their struggle, provided it is or
ganized and led on, the basis of the
fundamental class struggle. Co-opera-
ton between the workers-struggle
between the workers and the bour
geoisie; this is the formula for a sue
cessful cooperative movement.
Unfortunately the cooperative
movement is largely dominated by
middle-class ideas. These exercise a
confusing and pernicious influence
over the workers. They set up the
false goal, the reformist Utopia of eco
operation" Detween the workers on
the one hand and sections of the bour.
geoisie on the other hand. This CO.
operation of classes is the very worst
poison for the labor movement in all
it's phases. 1t must be combatted
everywhere by all means, and particu-
larly in the cooperative movement is
1t strongest.
The co-operatives can become in.

Sealers' Tradition
Saved Lives of 50
In Sinking of Maris

st. Johns, n. f., March 13--True
to the time honored tradition of
sealers when shipwrecked in north
ern waters. SO men. the crew of the
sealing steamer Stella Maris. es-
capped death from drowning last
Wednesday when their vessel foun-
dered between ice foes off the north
east coast of New Foundland, by
taking to the ice with boats and food.
This was disclosed today in a brief
message from Captain Whitley. who
was rescued with his crew by the
sealer Prospero. after passing day
on the ice foes. The Stella Maris
was bound with a fleet of eight other
steamers, for northern Grand Banks
on the annual seal. hunt.
The crew was barely able to es-
cape, the message stated. for the
steamer sank within 20 minutes of
the time she sprang aleak.
Early, at daylight, according to
Captain Whitelys message, the Stella
Maris was making good progress
through scattered ice masses, when
she sprang a serious leak. The men
made their way to the ice foes with
a small supply of food in their boats.
They remained on the ice until night
fall when the Prospero found and
rescued them.
Steps are being taken by the fish
cries department of the New Found
land government to distribute the
men among the other vessels of the
sealing fleet during the hunt, which
lasts a month or longer.

COMPROMISE PLAN
FORECAST IN EXCISE
TAX CUT ON RVS.

A compromise plan for reduction
Of the excise tax on the railroads
operating in the State is being work
ed out, it is rumored, by the COM
mittee on taxation of the Legisla-
ture and will probably be included
in the new draft of the taS reduc-
ton bill which will he reported out
tyt the committee early next week.
1t is said that this compromise
plan will call for a fiat reduction
OF one-half OF one per cent on the
maximum excise tax now paid by
the roads. The measure which was
introduced in the Legislature by
Representative Martin of Augusta
provided for ew system of levy
ing the tax based on the relation
of the net to the gross income and
called for sliding rate from three
TO five and a half per cent
This would reduce the railroad
excise tax about 100000 a year,
whereas a reduction of between
100000 and 100000 was sought in
