NTOW, that Debs is dead the capital
IN lists are very willing to present
him with pair of wings and permit
his name to be mentioned in polite
circles. The man who was the bette
noir of American capitalism for over
a generation is no longer a danger
so the capitalists think. 1t Is true that
they pass lightly over his anti-war
record when commenting on his death.
To brave the militarists when they
have decided on a mass blood bath is
10 set a bad example to the cannon
fodder Therefore, even tho many
capitalist papers now express doubt as
TO the wisdom of this country enter
Ing the world war, they are always
careful to castigate anybody who
would carry his objection to the point
of active opposition when the war
dogs have begun barking.
7 OCAL Terre Haute papers, the so
IL called labor paper that exists there,
as well as the capitalist papers slob-
bered over the memory Of Debs. But
not tine real Debs by a long shot. The
Debs the capitalists and labor takers
eulogized could not well be distin-
guished from a retired and reformed
pirate who had decided to spend his
declining years doing penance for his
sins, by spending part of his loot in
works of mercy, thereby winning the
affections of those whom he benefited.
rfNHE labor paper talks about stand
4 ing by his grave, cherishing his
memory in his heart and such stereo-
typed twaddle, but instead of pledg-
ing to carry on the militant fight that
Debs waged against capitalism it says:
''The passing of Debs takes the last
Of the great labor leaders Of the
world, of the old school of thought,
at a time when labor is demanding
more spiritual and humanitarian
settlement of its problems" Debs did
not believe in spiritual" and human
itarian' settlements of the labor prob
lem. What the labor editor means is
that our modern labor leaders do not
believe in labor fighting for its rights.
They favor begging the capitalists for
favors.
THE local capitalist paper says:
4 1.-THE world is assimilating Debs-
There Is seen here and there the
naturalization Of industry. There is
noted growing shareholdings in enter
prises- The elevation of the general
living scale owes some of its material
ization TO Debs. These things have
come about under names other than
Debs had for them" Thus the capital
LIST paper echoes the views OF the labor
paper, in different words. Capital and
labor are getting nearer to each other!
In fact 1t is no longer easy TO tell
them apart This is the iargon that
seeks TO steal the inspiring memory
Of Debs' lifelong battle from the work
ingclass OF America who are yet as
enslaved as when Debs first raised
his voice In their behalf.

of high school found nearly 40 candi-
dates out in uniform with real en-
thusiasm for snappy WORKOUT
The boys. were put through d
stenuous workout Tuesday and many
showed that they were not in good
condition. The work consisted chiefly
of charging, passing and receiving
the ball, and limbering-up cilisthenIcs.
The boys who have been out durin 3
the early practice are in fair condi-
tion already and have quite lead
on the others.
Forty eight suits have been issued
to date and some boys turned away
due to a lack of sufficient equipment
to go around.
The following boys were out for
practice today: Causey, Jack Evans

out to them the advantages derived
from the sport while in school and
after leaving. He also stated that
it was impossible for every high
school boy to take part in the game,
but they should feel it their duty to
be booster for the team that re-
presents their school. Every boy in
school should get behind the team
and help put across championship
team this year. he said,
The competition for the various
positions is so keen this year that 1iaf
