In the letter referred to above, the
writer said he did not believe in
legislation to make people good. That
education through the schools, the
churches and the press" should be
depended upon to correct evils.
While l will admit that on purely
moral questions there may be some
reason in this argument, broadly
speaking, it is open to serious doubt
as a matter of public policy. It GER
tainly has its limitations. But when
applied to the public health, too many
people may be sick and too many
lives lost while waiting for education
to do its work.

cream meakers, who also conducts a
first class confectionery establishment
IN Helena as the principal part of his
business. He told me he was glad to
see a compulsory pasteurization law
enacted. He said he should not pas
%teurize but should buy p~asteurized
cream from the creamery to make his
ice cream from. Probably most Of
the other small ice cream makers will
do the same. Not many will close.

might be termed scrambled"
thought / very plainly stated, in pre-
senting this story, that / was relat.
ing the, result of an experiment that
was conducted, first with guinea
pigs; but as the guinea pig is very
] susceptible to all kinds of diseases. to
make the experiment more conclusive
and therefore more valuable, it was
continued with domestic hogs. Here
is the absurd" story in Doctor
Sehroeder's exact language. l will
suggest that it is worth reading the
second time.
"But we do net have to depend on
circumstantial evidence to prove that
disease germs r present in butter
derived from infected milk, or that
they remain alive long periods of
time in it. This has been c~oncretety
proved by many Investigators and in
this connection one series of expert.
ments made at the experiment station
is interesting.
Butter was made with the cream
obtained from the milk of a tubercu-
lOsis cow in which the disease had
extended to the udder, and tested for
yfrulent tubercle bacilli through the
periodic, ntra-abdominal injection of
guinea pigs. It was found, after the
butter was more than five months
old, that it was still sufficiently in
fictitious to cause ~generalized tuber,
culosis in the guinea pigs.
CAS- I knew that the mcst delicate
test we have for the presence of liv-
ing tubercle bacilli is the injection
OF guinea pigs, and that the develop
ment Of tuberculosis in guinea pigs
could not be taken as proof that il
contained the bacilli in sufficient
numbers, or of sufficient virulence. to
cause tuberculosis among persons who
used it as food, I regarded the criti-
ci8m as reasonable, and Immediately
planned another experiment. in which
infected butter was fed, and not in.
jected. and in which the experiment
animals were hogs and not guinea
pigs.
In the latter experiment, a number
Ct hogs, proved free from tubercu-
iosis by a study of their history and
tuberculin tests, were fed, in addition
to their regular feed, a small quantity
OF infected butter daily, for about two
weeks. The amount received by each
hcg on each day was no greater than
the average adult person eats. and Rhe
butter used in this experiment was all
a hundred days old or older. The re.
suit was that the hogs contracted
tuberculosis"
No one, I am sure, will claim that
infected butter which can cause tuber-
culosis in hogs that are permitted to
eat small quantities of it, is a safe
food for human beings, and no one
will doubt that it should be condemn
ed as dangerous food for children,
who have been proved beyond all
question to be susceptible to BOVINE
tuberculosis.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 3.-The
slowly dying socialist party of Phila-

vive itself last Sunday by arranging
a banquet in memory Of Deb's so
years service to the labor movement.
About 300 people were present at
the banquet to hear this man who
only a few years ago attracted thou
sands of workers to his meetings in
this city. Debs waxed sentimental
over the plight of poor John d. Rookie
Teller for not knowing the grasp of

Open Discussion in
Moscow of Commerce
and Industry Problems

MOSCOW, (By Rosta).-An open
discussion, attended by big audience,
was held here today on the question
of attracting home private capital
into commerce and industry.
The Peoples Commissary of intern
al commerce, Scheinman, stated that
tho the economic situation of the
country was not such as to compel
the state to seek assistance from priv
ate capital, however, in the interests
Of further expansion of the CONNER
cial turnover, the government was
willing to meet halfway the solid
elements of private capital, with the
recommendation that the later should
pass from merely profiteering oper-
atoms to normal trading and be con-
tented with normal profits.
Under such conditions the govern
ment would be willing to grant credit,
fiscal and legal facilities. Thus, de-
clared the speaker, the banks would
discount private bills. Further, the
taxes on private commerce were being
revised, with an ultimate view to
lowering the rate, and so forth.
A number Of representatives Of
private firms and mutual credit so.
cieties voiced their satisfaction at the
statements made by the peoples COM
missary Of internal commerce, and
declared that the private capital was

Story Of Browns Meeting.

To the DAILY WORKER The
following is my impression of Bishop
William M. Browns meeting at the
Community Church, New York City:
The crowds were in the church
when 1 arrived. About a dozen po-
licemen we're around the entrance
to the church and about as many de-
tectives were participating in various
discussions that were taking place in
the crowd.
Many ways we're devised to attract
the attention of the policemen so
that they may look sideways to en-
able the people to sneak in. Some
did, some did not-others were caught
moving out of the line in order to
make just a few steps towards the
head Of the line, but the policemen
pushed them towards the last end
of the line and told them to "stay
there"
Between 8 p. m. and $3.50 p. m. a
few curiosity seekers were leaving.
The New York American made its ap-
pearance also with the newsboy yell
ing "Dr. Brown challenged DR.. Mann
ing; Read all about it in the New
York American" Altho the meeting
had been opened only an hour and

had all the news already. But every
time the newsboy would yell, the
nearest policeman would say, Get the
hell away from here"
But that did not keep the newsy
away; he always came back after
making a few short steps towards
the curb. About the same time some
were allowed to enter who were
quick enough to get past. Some peo-
pie jumped out OF the line and brush
ed past a policeman who was talking
to a beauty who had just left the
place Of worship.
l tried the same trick, but was
caught, and went back to my old
place. The crowd was coming out
faster now, $3.50 p. m. and nobody al
lowed to enter anymore.
Bishop Browns book, Christianity
and Communism, was for sale out side

Soviet Russia Different.
The only country where improve
ment of the metal workers conditions
we're reported, was that of Soviet
Russia, where the situation is quite
different from that of the other
countries. In Soviet Russia the work
ers hold political power therefore the
problem is that of reconstruction of
the inustry
The Russian delegation pointed out
the great difficulty they were facing
due to the lack of machinery and so
forth, but in spite Of that they could
report great improvements in the
conditions of the metal workers. and
in some industries the wages have
now reached that Of the pre-war
period.
Real international Needed.
l shall in another article deal with
the general condition Of the Russian
metal workers. The conference de-
clared that the struggle against the
Dawes plan can only be carried out
effectively by united international of
metal workers, which will be an in
ternational in reality, based on the
class struggle.
The resolution presented on the
Dawes plan was carried unanimously
by the conference.
Comrade Koselov of the Russian
metal workers reported on the An
glo-Russian negotiations for interna-
tional unity. After his report a reso-
luton was unanimously adopted which
pledges the revolutionary minorities
to carry on a ceaseless struggle
against all the reactionary trade I'M
ion bureaucrats who stand in the
way Of unity.

Extensive plans were made for the

G. presidium were elected from the
delegation of the following countries:
Russia, Germany, France, England,

tire proceedings of the conference will
be available for all revolutionary
metal workers in various languages.
Work Thru Revolutionary Minorities.
The conference ended March IA,
with the result that stronger con-
nections have been established by the
various national sections with the /.
P. G. which will enable the revolu-
tionary metal workers to carry on
their work in a more systematic way
and also on the basis of a unified
program which have not been the case
till now. This conference was prac-
tically the first conference of a real
representative nature and approx
mately one million metal workers
were represented.
BY united efforts of these revolu-
tionary minorities in the various coun-
tries it will be possible to establish
one united international of metal
workers and help prepare the way
for the complete overthrow Of CAPT
talism.

That the audience was not repre-
sentative of the proletarians, and that
the socialist party is far removed
from the working class was proven by
the fact that the toast master of the
evening started the collection by an
appeal for $1,000 bills.
OF course, he didn't get any, as
the S. P. have not yet succeeded in
getting the support Of big capital, it
has only jumped from the proletariat
into the bourgeoisie, consequently the
highest donation was $500.
The evening did not end without
an attack on the Communists. Old
Gene Debs still living in sentimental
hopes of bringing the workers into
the socialist party. criticised the Com
munists for leaving the S. p. and
assured his well-fed audience that the
day is coming when the bad Commun-
lists will see the error of their ways
and return into the gentle folds Of
the socialist party.

the various countries.

Metal Workers international.

7. Election Of presldium.
The report Of the I. P. G. secre-
tary, Comrade Vacksov, was we'll
prepared and covered extensively
the situation confronting the metal
workers in the various countries. He
pointed out the necessity Of strength
ening the connections between the
various sections, which have been far
from satisfactory. He dealt extens-
lively with the situation in Germany
and the need of further work within
the reformist unions.
He also dealt with the effects Of
the Dawes plan and the struggle to
maintain the eight-hour day, the need
of carrying on the struggle against the
reformists and to establish one inter-
national Of metal workers which shall
be able to fight on an international
scale on the basis of the class strug-
gle. Considerable time was given to
the discussion on the Dawes plan.
The Result Of the Dawes Plan.
The delegates from England, Ger
many, France and Sweden in particu-
lar pointed out the effects of the sys-
tematic plan Of international capital
to enslave the metal workers of all
countries in the destruction of the
eight-hour day and the initiation of
further wage cuts. The German dele
gate from the Rhur district showed
that the German workers in the
heavy industry are now working from
so to 70 hours per week and that the
wages have been cut down to so per
cent of pre-war wages.
The French delegates showed that
the French capitalists controlling the
heavy industry in Alsace-Lorraine are
now initiating wage cuts and their
arguments are that the German work
ing class are willing to work IL and
II hours day, and therefore the
French workers should be willing to
follow their example. Otherwise the
French capitalists will not be able to
compete.
German Slave Labor.
The British delegates showed that
in the shipbuilding Industry in Great
Britain the manufacturers are placing
orders for ship building in Germany,
due to the fact that the German work
ing class are forced to work for much
lower rates than the British working
class. The British capitalists con-
trolling the metal industry are using
the same arguments as the French,
stating that the workers must take
wage cuts otherwise they shall be
forced to place their orders with Ger
ntan concerns, where the production
will be cheaper.
The same arguments hold good in
the Scandinavian countries. Thru
the whole discussion it was clearly
demonstrated that the need for an
international struggle against the
Dawes plan has become more evident.
