History of the Catholic
Church in Mexico

aries. The division is along class
lines, with organized labor marching
in the forefront of the anti-catholc
forces.
What will the outcome be? It is
indicated for us in the fact that the
church has always pushed against the
forces of history. What is against
history must eventually be destroyed
by history.
President Gales insists that his gov
eminent is attacking the catholic
church not as a religious but as a po-
litieal institution. But what is politi-
cal? What is left Of the Roman catho-
lie church in Mexico after the new
laws and regulations are in effect?
No right to hold property, no foreign
oficiates, no services of any kind out
side Of the church buildings assigned
for that purpose, no right to wear &c
clesiastical vestments on the street,
no control whatever over elementary
education, no polemical press. The
process has been going forward at I'M
precedented speed since the overthrow
of Porfirio Diaz.
What will take the place of catholi-
whether it will be a modified
hierarchical form, or something else
remains to be seen. Last year an
attempt was made, with the covert
and sometimes the open support Of
the government, to set up Mexican
Schismatic catholic apostolic church,
as against the Roman catholic. The
"cismaticos" entered upon the scene
with spectacular energy, but their at
tempt appears to have failed. 1t is
possible that the peasants, the masses
of whom are still religious, will event
ually group themselves around their
local priests. One thing is certain,
Mexico's reformation will not and can
not follow the classic European lines.
The plight of the church should sur
prise no one familiar with the basis of
its original power. The whole course
of modern Mexican history tells us
that the present movement is part and
parcel Of a great Mexican revolution
which could not reach fruition while
the feudal church intact.
The End.

BY JEANETTE D. PEARL.

II is now becoming apparent that the
4 tiny atom has stored within itself
an infinite amount Of latent energy,
which, when once released, will Just
astound the world with the tremen-
dous magnitude of it's power and pos
sibihties.
A similar discovery Is now coming
to light from an element of quite a
different sort. An element not so
tiny as the atom, but almost as much
obscure, the hitherto submerged work
ing class. This huge labor body also
has stored in its cells infinite latent
energy, which too, when once released,
must amaze mankind with the magni-
tude of its power and the extent of its
possibilities.
A glimpse of this latent energy Of
the labor cell Is now being revealed
in the huge cooperative enterprise,
initiated, begun and being completed
by members of the working class for
members of the working class. The
cooperative dwellings are much more
than a mere attempt at cheaper and
better living conditions for workers.
These buildings, scientifically con-
structed, artistically designed, breathe
living spirit-the spirit OF working
class solidarity feature new in the
social life Of the worker.
This cooperative surge is not a
whim. 1t is not an experiment. 1t is
the signal Of the workers viii to
power-to mass action, mass effort,
mass achievement. 1t is the assertive
expression of a repressed force taking
definite course. 1t is not sporadic. 1t
is deeprooted. 1t is not confined to
any one city. 1t is nationwide and
worldwide.
II is not an abandonment OF the
class struggle. but an intensifcation
of it. In collective activity, workers
will be trained for cooperative life,
cooperative hope. cooperative eff
cheney. 1t Is an additional channel in
the means for labor emancipation. II
Is an added bridge for the revolution

The State Jewish Theater
in Moscow
By RUTH JEFFERSON KENNEL.

BY RUTH EPPERSoN KENNEL.
THE new play of the season at the
4 State Jewish Theater, THE Tenth
Commandment" described as IAN op-
cratic pamphlet" while not superior
to 100000" and "The Witch" is diff
ferent in its burlesque on present day
politics. Like the other plays, it has
that complete harmony Of rhythmic
movement characteristic of these re-
markable players, the music is gay,
the costumes daring (being, like the
sets, a bit futuristic) and only the
brilliant witticisms are lost to some
extent on those who do not understand
Yiddish. Being a political satire, an
understanding of the lines is more es-
sential in order to follow it than in
100000" which is more a rhythmic
paRtomime.
The playwright walks about with
his arms full of manuscript, interior
ing when the play does not go to suit
him and appealing to the fat director
for help. But the devil, a gay cynic
in brown breeches and soft collar,
high scarlet hat and red cape, is bent
upon making tangle of the play, and

succeeds. The lady falls In love with
a young man and appeals to the devil
to get rid Of her husband. The devil
agrees and proceeds to make a deal
with the husband, who promptly dis
appears from Berlin and is mourned
as dead. He turns up in Palestine,
which has become Anglicized, with the
British flag and two British policemen
in the foreground and in the back
ground (only as decoration) a classic
figure symbolizing old Palestine. The
widow appears looking for the grave
OF her husband. In the International
chorus which sings in this scene, the
league of nations, the Locarno cabinet
and individual statesmen figure. Yel
low banners wave in the meeting OF
the Second International, gay woman
from Broadway represents the United
States and Vandervelde and MacDon-
aid, quite lifelike and singing in Yid-
dish, dance solemnly. Finally every
thing gets into such a hopeless tangle
that the whole company commits sui
eide. Wings are provided and they
mount the golden stairs to heaven.
st. Peter, questioning the new arriv-
ais as to name, occupation and sins,
becomes Mortified when he learns that
the Tenth Commandment has been
broken and consults God on the tele-
phone. They are condemned to re-
main in heaven, but the devil comes
to their rescue and conducts them to
his home below. The first scene in
hell is Europe, and here the guests
are well pleased to remain.

rian purposes of their benefactors.
They felt in that move an effort at
the perpetuation of wage slavery, an
attempt to undermine labor morale,
to weaken 1t, make 1t grateful to its
owners and more dependent upon
them. Labor saw thru it and would
have none Of It. Philanthropic Co
operatives passed on to the SNUG com

chooses a vocation ought TO be able
to support himself and his family, so
I said, Well let's take the textile
workers Of Passaic as an example.
They got paid very little and many
OF them starve to death because tho
bosses won't pay them enuf to sup
port themselves and even NOW tho
bosses want TO give them another
wage cut so they are striking. Now,
how can they support themselves II
such bosses exist7" She thot IL over
while. Then said, wen, II you
can find tho answer TO that, you are
very smart because there'u always be
some people living a happier life
than others. II will ALWAYS be So"
SO said, "Oh, no not Al

BELGIUM PLANS.
GRANTING KING
GREAT POWERS
(By Dispasc- A. P. wire)

BRUSSELS, July 13.-Belgium, stag
goTed by the recent precipitate fail
of the Belgian franc is verging on
the appointments of King Albert as
virtual dictator within his kingdom
in the governments effort to save the
exchange from further collapse.
The Belgian cabinet today intro
duced bill granting Albert unlfm-
lied powers to issue DEGREES for dras-
tic defense of the franc and there are
indications that the bill will be voted.
Belgium thus joins the three Euro
pean powers who are considering par
liamentary concentration of unlimited
powers in one person. Italy is dis
cussing whether Premier Mussolini
and his cabinet should be made per-
sonally answerable only to the king
and not to the republic. sBrance will
soon vote on a government bill in
parliament to grant the BRAND cab
met full powers in order that Finance
Minister Caollaux may proceed with
the restoration of the French franc,
and Belgium is going them one better
by suggesting that the sovereign be
installed with far more than usual
power.
Yesterdays cataclysmic fall of the
Belgian franc
That is the expression used here.
Measures of economy have already
been drafted in detail and bankers
have been called into conference. The
latter have promised support and
there is every reason to believe, the
cabinet ministers say, that the Bel
gian franc might yet be saved if the
king is granted full powers.

association, spoke on marketing con-
ditions.

Case of Ehmke -.
In baseball certain clubs are easy
picking for star pitchers.
The Philadelphia Athletics always
have been sort for Howard Ehmke.
Against Connie Mack's club, Ehmke
has always looked like million dol
lars. That is why he is now q
members of the Aathleties, ~
When the Boston club let it, be
known that Ehmlxe was on the mar
ket, Mack Immediately became one
of the strongest bidders. Naturally
his estimate of Ehmkes ability was
based on the sensational pitching ne
always turned in against the AS.
Mack gave three ball players for
the star of the Boston staff Mama
ger Fohl of the Red Sox wanted
Outfielder Jacobson of st. Louis, so
Mack got him in return for Bling
Miller and, in addition, turned over

twist Of Fate

! Now Tor a peculldf IWlSI ol ldCS'
Mack started Ehmke against Boston
in his first game as a member Of
| the Athletics. The Red SoX knocked
! him out of the box.
| Byan Harriss, one of the pitchers
obtained from Philadelphia in eX-
/ change for Ehmke, has always been
very successful against Washington.
In an effort to get Harriss off ON
the right foot, Manager Fohl of Bos-
ton didn't start him until his club
met Washington. He was held on
the bench for 10 days. Harriss re-
warded Fohl for his patience and
wisdom by winning, FL.
! Incidentally, jacobson assisted Har-
| rss in winning his first game by
performing sensationally in the field.
While baseball trades cannot be
| judged on a ball game or two, early
results favor Boston as having got
a decided edge in the deal.
Jones and Golf
| Without a doubt the most discuss
ed golfer in all the world today is
Bobby Jones.
His qualifying rounds in the Brit
| ish open of 36-3S-134, followed by
the winning of the championship,
stamped him as one of the greatest
golfers of all time.
Recently L received a query from
golf fan asking for some data on
Jones; when he started to play in
the big tournaments and a brief
record of his successes. Here goes:
Jones made his debut in champion
ship golf at Merton in 1916, playing
in the amateur championship at the
age of a. At 18 he played in his
first open championship at Inverness
and finished in a tie for eighth
place.
Eight years after his debut at
Merton he won the amateur cham
pionship over the same course.
Jones has made a most remark
able showing in the United States
open championships.
He finished eighth in his first at
tempt in 1920. A year later at CO.
lumbia, he tied for fifth, at Skokie
in 1922 he had first first thrill, fin
ishing in a tie for second.
Success finally crowned his ef-
forts at Inwood in 1923 when he
tied with Bobby Cruickshank for
first place and won the 18-hole play
off.
The following year he was the
runner-up to Cyril Walker at De-
troit while last year at Worcester
he tied with Willie MacFarlane.
Playing off the tie in an 18-hole
MATCH, the finish found them all
even again. MacFarlane won out
on the second clash over the 1S-hole
route.
In the last, four open champion
ships Jones has never been farther
away than second place His re-
makes him a favorite to win at
markable sowing in the British open
Scioto this year.
