denials deceive no one.
1t is struggling for power in Mexico,
not for spiritual but for economic and
political power. 1t fights, as it fights
in Italy, France, Poland and Bavaria,
as it fights in all countries with large
populations of backward peasants, for
feudalism with the church in the role
of landlord and ruler.

vice-consul, 1t built 2O,SOO churches

NEVER before in the history of the
L United States has a religious
demonstration been followed so quick
ly by a political maneuver of world
importance as has the Eucharist con-
gress by the declaration of war upon
the Mexican government by the
Roman catholic church.
There are still fools who maintain
that religion has no connection with
politics, that it maintains neutrality
under capitalism, that it satisfies only
certain spiritual needs, that it is a
natural" manifestation of mans belief
in a supernatural power, etc. Certain
protestant sects are able to give some
color to these illusions because their
hold on their followers is weak, be-
cause they have never acquired the
dignity and power of state religions
and because their leadership is of a
mediocre type.

The nucleus has alreday issued leaf

Company Playing with Fire.
These tactics are not without dan
ger TO the company. The workers
will think of strike, much more after
this than before, but they will begin
to understand their enemies and also
to know who are their leaders. They
will, thanks to the exposure of the
company tactics, have greater conf
dence in the nucleus of the shop. They
will learn under the direction of the
nucleus to organize, quietly and sys-
tematically and this maneuver of the
company will prove boomerang.

will be to extend its influence among

BEBE DANIELS ADORABLE IN "MISS BREWSTER'S MILLIONS"

Bebe Daniels who appears in her latest comedy at the Palace theater for the first half of this week, Miss Brewster's Millions" looks lovelier than ever and we may safe ly add, funnier than ever.
 If the laughing shrieks that came from the capacity audience at the New Palace last night mean any thing, thIs is a comedy year. Bebe Daniels latest Paramount farce was having it's first performance and it succeeded in registering big hit. Although entitled Miss Brewster's Millions ifs only similarity to the old George Barr McCutcheon's novel is found in the title and the under wing theme. .s
 The vaudeville bill for this pro- gram proves to be as good as the best that ras yet been presented at the Palace. Winnie and Dolly open up the bill with some daring feats in mid-air. Frisch and Sadler fol- low with some clever bits of song and music and are very pleasing to the eye and ear. The Giersdorf Sis ters present a variety musical act and are very talented beside having a very pleasing stage personality.
