The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-06-06

Mussolint announces that he Is go
ing to drop 100000 workers from the
public services. All those who do not
support fascism 100 per cent are due
for dismissal. In order to be able
to put this scheme across Benito paid
visit to the demented neurotic DAN
nunzio with the object Of bringing
his influence to bear on the side Of
fascism. This is the kind Of a policy
that the international bankers like.
They want railroads that pay and
they don't want their profits to 20
in wages to workers whether they
wear the black shirt or not.
TT is rather interesting to learn that
= President Gales, who is eulogized
by the American socialists is follow
ing the Mussolini policy in Mexico.
Gales will drop "superfluous" work
ers from the public services. He was
careful to secure the acquiescence of
the labor takers before he made up
his mind to do this. Wall Street now
owns the Mexican government body
and soul. Edward L. Doheny, the
Teapot Domer is the unofficial agent
Of the American government in Mex
leo. Doheny hates the Communists
and the radical workers in general,
but he thinks Gales is a mighty nice
fellow even tho Gales reviewed a
May Day parade and saluted the red
flag.

difficulty in persuading the meta
physicians to believe their eyes
instead of their speculations.
Some of them never were so

The same thing happened with
regard to meteorites. The earli-

the falling of stones from the
heavens. In Europe stories of
such occurrences were treated as
those who believed in the pagan
gods. 1t seems amazing nova

those who watch the eclipse to

For this purpose it will be desir-

looking at the sun before the
totality begins, to cover the eyes
with a pair of very dark, or

densely smoked glass will do, ex-
cept for the danger Of accidental
rubbing off Of the deposit. Thick
Photographic films exposed and
developed black, make excellent
screens.
If a small telescope is used,
it should be firmly mounted on a
tripod stand, and the image of
the sun should be thrown from
the eyepiece upon a stiff white
pasteboard. Turn the focusing
screw until the image becomes
perfectly sharp, and then every
thing on the sun will be clearly
seen. This is a much safer
method than trying to look di-
rectly at the sun with the eye
