With the opening day of Congress
just a few weeks off in the distant fu-
ture, ambitious statesmen and lobbyists
among the brethren are beginning to
sound their yearly remedies for relief

eral matters which are Of vital con-

Of reform are talking of their legis-

as scarce as mountain dew on the Sa-

that a new anti-lynching bill is to be
ready by December, which will be

The American Negro Labor Con-
gress, which has just closed its much
heralded convention in Chicago, was
misnamed. It should have been called
The Rushing-To-Ruin Convention
ski, for beneath the veneer Of bro
test against segregation, UNEQUAL
wages, m-Crowism, and other evils
we readily admit exist in this country
in Overlooking measure, and which
the A.N.L.C- used as smoke screen
there was the subtle and at times out
spoken advocacy of the establishment
in America of the Soviet Government
Of Russia. Sporadic outbursts Of I'M
restrained applause revealed all too
clearly the Communistic souls Of the
delegates, who, it was readily appar-
ent, are instrumentalities Of white
Communistic leaders, who, having
failed in their past undertakings
among their own group, have now
turned to Negroes, hoping to stir I'D
such an unrest as will make goats" of
the Negro labor Of this country.
The arguments that the aims Of the
Congress should and would Be con
summated, at any cost, and that the
Government had failed in its custod-
ianship of the working classes even
sinks into minor importance, compared
with the resonant revolutionary spirit
which arose among the mixed delega-
ton of alleged workers from many of
whose lips foreign tongue or peculiar
twang fell The dull, expressionless
eyes of the white delegates was only
equaled by the languid drawl and
quasi-Russian tongue Of the leaders Of
the Congress.
For the sake Of honesty, we would
like to ask Organizer Lovett- Fort
Whiteman, alias, James Jackson"
who admits that he had to go across
the seas to be properly instructed"
in the ways of American Government
and the needs Of American workmen,
few questions Are there not
enough organizations in America al
ready at work upon the social and
labor problems to make proper We
hicle for the desires of the A. NJ
L. G.? Is there such a vast gulf be-
tween the work rewards melted out
to American laborers, that the ques-
tionable doctrines Of Moscow have to
be brought over here as a solvent?
What Of the American leaders, white
and black? Are their life and labor
absolute failures, notwithstanding the
wonderful progress which all labor,
white and black, is surely making I'M
der their statesmenlike guidances?
Does not all labor, if properly nur-
tured, turn into capital? And are not
the American transitions good enough
for US, without stirring up advices
from Russia, Asia and Turkestan?
We hoped that the a. ~ L. Q. was
on the square; but we find that it is
another mushroom labor fantasia, weak
in structure, meaningless in purpose,
and in contravention to American
progress

LETTER FROM MRS. MARY ALI
DEN TO LESLIE PRESCOTT
Although you did not see At to
answer my letter, in which through
the purest Of motives l tried to tell
you that you were neglecting your
duty as a wife and mother, ! think
should write you again.
Surely no woman can be so
oblivious to the natural propensities
OF man--even the best OF them-as
to go away and leave her husband
and then let her. house be overrun
day and night by one Of the most
beautiful and famous movie ac-
tresses of the day and most radical
young woman whom I always have
disapproved of as my sons Sec
rotary.
Paula Perier and Sally Atherton
are in your home daily, and up to
this time Miss Perier has neglected
to ask for me and 1 would not have
seen Mrs. Atherton If had not in
tercepted her in the hall, and then
she insulted me.
1 think at the time you recon-
mended a young woman instead OF
young man for Johns secretary
said you would fly into the face OF
Providence. and you are certainly
slapping Providence In the face now
by going off to Buffalo, because for.
sooth you think it your duty to your
friend Ruth Burke to stay with her.
because her husband has met with
and accident and she Is going to have
a baby.
This to me is perfectly silly. One
Of the silliest ideas of this silly age
where everything is put before a
woman's duty to her husband and
children.
Countless babies have been born
since Eve became q mother and
countless fathers have been the vic.
Tins of accidents during those times.
Life has gone on. Fathers have
died and even killed other men dur
ing their wives pregnances and still
life has gone on and children have
been born.
AS 1 told you and have told you
ever since you married my son. your
place Is by his side. I think I have
been derelict in my duty by only say
ing this to you, but I really thought
that you would have some respect
for my experience and that would
be saved the humiliation of giving
you the reason for my opinion.
John is the replica Of his father
and my husband could never resist
a pretty face. OF course there Is
some OF my own stamina and prin
ciple in John. but even at that
would not place temptation in his
way as you have done. would, II
possible, keep the temptation Of an
other woman from my husband al
ways.
