Negro Looks on in Boston

graveyards, th&brestng places of it's revolutionary

whom all revolutionary spirit has long since died;
Boston the high temple of culture the abiding place
OF wisdom and fountain of knowledge had worked
itself into state of sem-hysteria. Tense and ex-

to dictatorship of the police their appointed serv-
ants-the guardians of law, the controllers of order,
who are themselves, however, above the law and
who have never reasoned that their conduct should
be most orderly. Boston is waiting for lynching
to take place.
The illustrious Governor of Massachusetts has
decreed it, Desperately he has strven to place the
stamp of responsibility upon this criminal act Citi-

Just So

Reds are not made by orators on soapboxcs,
But by fat sleek gentlemen
Who sit on interocking directorates
And figure thru the chewed ends
Of many fat sleek cigars
How to wiring more honest pennies
From the sweating carcasses
OF lazy, discontinued working stiffs.

The Passing of Labor Day

~ meaning Labor Day STANDS out as the
most prominent.
The real Labor Day is The first of May
when the class conscious, militant workers
of all lands gather to demonstrate, to take
stock of their defeats and victories in the
past, and pledge themselves to prosecute the
struggle for working class emancipation with
greater vigor in the future.
The rallying day of international labor
the first of Mays well as the Labor Day
of class collaboration, had it's genesis in the
United States, but the American labor
bureaucracy have spurned the first like an
unwanted child and left it on the political
doorstep.
The first of May brings out the police
with their clubs and their riot guns. The
official Labor Day brings out the capital
list politicians, the labor takers and the CAPT
talists, who enjoy the day scratching each
others backs.
Even a few years back, Labor Day had
some proletarian character. 1t was custom
airy for the union that was engaged in a
strike or that was most recently on strike to
be given the position of honor in the parade.
There are no longer any parades. The labor
leaders advise the rank and file to go to
some shady glen for the day or take their
families to the seaside It is much easier on
the labor takers and less costly. Bringing
great masses of workers together to demon
strate, gives them a copsciousness of power.
Here is danger for the minority that governs
and Expresses the masses by the aid of guns,
clubs and reactionary labor bureaucrats.
- TN Il
in the New York Central Labor Union, in
May 1882. Two years later the first Monday
of every September was declared Labor Day
by the American Federation of Labor in
convention assembled. The labor leaders OF
those days were not yet safely tucked away
in the pockets of the capitalists. Those at
the top were conservative and many of them
reactionary, but they were obliged to tight
the capitalists on the industrial field and
the latter did not yet know how to pull their
fangs Of course the economic position OF
the American capitalists was far from being
as sound as it is today. They could not af-
ford to bride the top strata of American
labor as they have been in recent years.
In those days even Sam Gompers shook
his fists at the capitalists. Indeed, Sam was
ALWAYS able to shake his fists and wag his
tongue against the "bad' employers but
that is about as far as he eyer went. He was
first-cass trained ram of capitalism and
nobody was better able to lead the sheep to
the industrial shambes than the first presi
dent of the American Federation of Labor.
In 1886 we find Gompers speaking from
the same platform with Henry George the
great single taxer who was candidate for
mayor of New York. The huge parade that
was held on Labor Day of that year had vi
tally in it. There were injunctions then as
now and the labor leaders instructed their
followers to violate the injunctions.
About this time the great eight-hour-day
movement was launched and the A. F. of l.:
made preparations for the calling of a ma

T don't intend that the new sta- ton shall be merely q school-room station, said Mir. Levitt. The idea is to be interesting and instructive at the same time. We all remember our favorite teachers and how easy we retained in our memory the things they taught us. How fine it would be to have those same teach CTS deliver talks over the air;n'
 Along the lines Of entertainment Mir. Levitt plans to give talent a chance. He said that there are any number Of young people who play musical instruments acceptably and there are many others who possess excellent voices. These have not q chance to appear at the larger stations because of the fact that program schedules are crowded. Great ability is needed in most cases to present programs at the larger stations. and the promising amateur is crowded into the back ground
 'Wc have all wanted to be actors at one time or another" stated MT. Levitt, That desire comes from wanting to please someone and the desire 10 please others is one Of the fundamentals of human ef- fort. Plainville and surrounding To- calities are crowded with talent eager to express itself and tha. tai Tra z, .h Plainville station. To be told that they may be put on the air will stimulate many budding musicians or singers"
 Organ recitals. instead Of tazz, will probably be presented during the dinner hour and favorite melo- dies Of all time will be programmed. Guest organists will be entertained from time to time in an effort 10 inject variety into the offerings.
 plainville's new transmitter will b" an intimate station where people may hear their friends Mr. Levitt win seek to develop real talent which may he lying domant for want of expression. IL will he liter ally Hartford CouNty's station. since it will cater 10 youth and to this vicinity. WTIC. is in Hartford county, but it is a national station with . wide scope.
 Tho new Plainyilc hroadcast"r will operate on low power and prob ably on q low wave. A powcr out put of loo watts will be employed. The date the station will start is as yet undetermined, since Mir. Levitt is waiting until the new regulations are put into effeC'.

chtld's interest is q difficult one. Everything points 10 high speed. Cover lot of ground Is the watch
 word. The modern city child will | not sit in one seat for three hours a day, listening to one teacher in various subjects, said MT. Le Witt, | because this is the age of special ization. They are used to seeing diff ferent faces for different subjects.
 The country child has 10 sit in ciassrooms day in and day out. the same teacher instructing in various subjects, as of old. For that reason, in order to instill more interest in educational matters, a radio station designed to fill the needs of the county child. would be q blessing he believes. The youngster could then listen to interesting talks over the radio and get a great deal out Of them.
 l. is Mir. Le Witt's plan To secure the services of well known teachers and educational workers to speak before the microphone of his sta tion on subjects of especial interest 10 young people. l.. s. Mills. q state supervisor, who is superintendent Of the Plainyille schools. Is one of the
 men mentioned by Mir Le Witt in that connection.
 Mr. Mills has large number Of pupils under his supervision. He is q man of marked ability. but with so many pupils and classes under his direction, it is impossible for him to reach all of them at one time.
 MT. Levitt believes tha. the great value. Mr Mills might de- liver talks to the pupils of the schools. cmphasing necessary points. and the children would feel that he was speaking 10 them directly and individually. Tn his present Capac- ity, he must give ideas 10 the teach chers who in turn pass them on to the pupils Nr. Levitt feels that it would be much more effective If the superintendent could speak di- rectly to the children and, in that way. the radio and the schools would be hooked up together. The voice of such a man. issuing from the loud speaker, would be the voice of authority itself. said Mir. Levitt
 Tho teachers themselves would find the Plainville station Of value, he is confident. They might pre- pare talks on the subjects in which they specialize anl deliver those talks to the children. thus benefit ing others besides the few who sit in the classes of teachers each day.

There are no Etations that cater to young people Especially, he says. Many of them have bedtime stories each evening, and the so-called children's hours with widespread response, because he average child will not listen to
