Party Unity Grows.

THE letter published above is all
= the more dangerous because it
consists of tissue of misrepresenta-
lions which would not bear the light
of open discussion in the party. 1t is
circulated at time when substantial
progress has been made not only in
the indications of the leadership of
the party, but in unifying the member
ship of the party behind this leader
ship The fact that three months after
the national convention the political
committee of the party could come to
unanimous agreement to unite the
leadership of the party is an important
achievement for our organization The
unanimous acceptance of the unity re-
solution of the c. E. C. by the conven-
ton of the Finnish section, represent
ing a third of our membership, is an
other great step forward. The mem
bership meetings now being held will
show that the party membership gen.
orally supports the policy of putting
En- end to factionalism, and uniting
the party in work among the masses.
The Detroit membership has already
voted ten to one for this policy.
The statement in the above letter
that the unity resolution of the polite
al committee is directed against any
person or group has no basis in fact.
The resolution particularly emphasiz-
ed the need, thru argument and dis
cussion, to convince those comrades
who still did not accept the resolu-
ton, of the correctness of the line
laid down and win them toward uni
fed work of the party. This is and
will be the policy pursued by the C.
e. c., for which it asks the-support
of the party.
Trade Union Policy.
THE statements about the trade
union policy and work of the
party are the most dangerous mista-
tement in this letter. One of the cen
trail points laid down in the unity re-
solution is the intensification of our
work in the trade unions. The resolu-
tion calls for an energetic campaign
to induce those members who are not
in the trade unions to join the unions
1t urges the necessity of at last build
ing up a systematic organization Of
party fractions in the trade unions
In calling for the revision of our tao
tics on the trade union field in certain
respects, the political committee re-
fered to the necessity of actually
carrying out the instructions of the
Comintern Profintern letter to our
party that "the party must strive to
convert the Trade Union Educational
League into an extensive left bloc or
ganlzation lining up all revolutionary
and progressive elements in the labor
unions against the reactlonary bureaus
eracy." The political committee is
now studying the question and work
ing upon resolution which will give
the party program for carrying out
these instructions. This resolution will
be submitted to full plenum meeting
of the Central Executive Committee
and will be submitted to the Commun-

branch of Cleveland, Ohio, and he
read it in part at the branch meet

After the secretary of the branch re-

refused to read further, but on the

"DEAR Comrade: No doubt you are
- already acquainted with the So
called unity resolution which was pub
lished by the political committee of
the c. E. C. in the party press, and
which they recommend for discussion
and adoption in all sections of the
party.
This resolution is an open declara-
ton of war against those comrades Of
the majority and what is worse, it en-
dangers our entire movement. In
their struggle against the Foster
group the comrades of the minority
stop at nothing. They know that in
order to successfully war against Com
rade Foster and the group they must
disrupt comrade Fosters principal
work, and that is, our work in the
trade unions. They have undertaken
to liquidate the Trade Union Educa-
tional League. So they declare in
their resolution for the time being
with half words, that it is necessary
to fundamentally revise the trade
union policy. They do not propose,
tho, any other policy and want, no,
demand, that the membership shall
vote for revision give them a blank
check so that they may do with this
whatever they wish. This is entirely
a nom Communist conduct of central
committee of Communist Party. The
Comintern has condemned in the
-sharpest words the Ruth Fischer lead
ership of the German Communist
Party for exactly that sort of conduct.
What the present majority of the
G. E. c. intends is to entirely elimin-

The Awful Farewell.


One of the most difficult things in

ing goodbye gracefully.
Don't you know that awful girl who
rises to leave gathering, saying
rather flusteredly: We'll I'm afraid
III have to go now. I've had such
nice time at your tea Then she
sidles toward the door and you ac-
company her. and she suddenly thinks
Of something else to say.
She stands there chattering. remem-
bering more and more things you
have to tell here while you hang on
get 1t all over with and leave you
free to go back to your other guests.
When she finally goes she has def
nitely left bad impression with you.
Then there's the awful business OF
saying goodbye at a station or a pier.
You are going away for some time,
and your friends rush down to see
you off on the train.
They dash up to where you are
leaning out of the window and they
shrek enthusiastic messages of fare
well for about minutes. then, as
1t dawns on them that the train has
station for another half-hour. their
enthusiasm subsidies. and they shift
from one foot to the other. trying
to think Of amusing conversation to
last until you start.
BY the time you do start you're
SO tired of these people you once
called friends that you wish they'd
never come down to see you off at all.
Also there is usually a lot of EN-
barrassment about saying goodbye to
the boy who has taken you out and

You sort of hesitate on the doorstep.
saying: well, goodbye. Thank you
for a very nice time
And after he has said good bye
firmly, you still linger. wondering
whether you should say something to
him about his coming to see you
again.
He's fused then. waiting for you
to disappear into the house, so that he
can dash home and get some much
needed sleep.
and much desultory conversation, you
say goodbye again lamely and back
awkwardly into the house. And he
thinks privately that you might have
managed that scene great deal
better.
The best way to avoid all these an
noyins little scenes is to make It
rule to say goodbye and stick to it.
II you're seeing a friend off at a
station. say bood bye to him or her,
and then leave, no matter whether
the train shows a disposition to do
SO or not.
If you're at tea, bidding YOUR
hostess farewell, don't linger for a
chat after you've uttered the final
goodbye. Just march off and leave
II at that.
And when you've made your pretty
speech to the escort of the evening,
don't keep him hanging around wish
ing you'd go in, while you giggle over
the happenings Of the evening.

Ensembles for All Hours of the Day
BY MARY MARSHALL.

It Is passing strange that such
words as Lingerie" and "ensemble''-
go amazingly difficult for most Amer
lean and English folk to pronounce
correctly or even easily-should ever
have been seized unon by purveyors of
fashion. Such Fr, nch words as "chif-
fon, "georgette" and Crepe de chine"
while as truly French, present no such
tongue-twisting difficulties for the
woman who has been brought up to
an exclusive use of the English Ian
guage. But few Americans not we'll
trained IN French can possibly say
"ensemble" in q manner that would
permit any self-respecting French
persoa to know what she was trying
to say.
Well. when the ensemble idea first
fell like fertile seed on rich ground
many of us thought that n new name
would have to be devised for it.
Women wouldn't ask for ensembles
simply because they wouldn't know
how TO do SO. They would be EN-
harrassed at this word that presented
such great linguistic difficulties. Moth
ing OF the kind happened. Within a
few weeks of the heralding of the "en-
semble' idea as a popular style de-
Selopment women from Broadway to

department stores who call their Gus
toners ''dearie" and hum between
sales, glibly said something that they
thought to be this new French word.
so far as they We're concerned there
seemed to be nothing difficult about
IL at all.
So much for the word by which it
Is known. Now for the idea. The inn
portant thing is that it has been car
,tRn,. 81
the leading French dressmakcrs find
the ensemble idea more interesting
when applied to evening clothes than
To afternoon or daytime wear gener-
ally. Martial ct Armand Of Paris,
especially, have made interesting en-.
sembles of the Wearable evening sort
that we call dinner ensembles. Moth
ting could fit in better with our pres
ent-day habits and mode of living than
these dinner ensembles. suitable for
the theater, for restaurant wear, or
for the little dance. One OF these eve

toned is of gold lace with wrap to
go with il of silver and gold cloth
with generous cuffs and collar of white
fox. A rose velvet wrap lined with
metal brocade has a metal frock be-
meath trimmed with the rose velvet.
There are, of course, daytime
ensembles as we'll. With some of the
French dressmakers there is nothing
whatever new in this ensemble idea.
Everything they show is in reality
part of an ensemble. With Iatou, for
instance. I am told every dress has
some sort of cape or coat or dolman-

RACIAL ORIGIN-German.
SOURCE-An occupation.

If you wanted to interpret this fam.
lily name upon a strictly genealogical
basis, you'd hark back to the tongue
OF the Goths, the first Of the Teutonic
tongues to dominate In southern
Europe after the fall of the Roman
Empire, and from it you would pick
out the verb 'skreitan." which meant
to Shred" Then you would turn to
the Anglo-Saxon for the north Teu-
toEic version and you would f1nd
'scritan," from which, IN fact, our
modern English word Shred has
come.
The family name Of Schrader traces
back to this word root. But that
doesn't and couldn't tell you how the
word became II name. nor what the
meaning of the name in its first and
descriptive sense was. For the origi-
