H. J. Chambers, an instructor of
English at the University of Wash
ington, informs the Civil Liberties
Union that he was actually dis
charged because he discussed Ber-
trand Russell's "What | Believe"
with his classes.
Parents are said to have COM
planned to university officials that
Chambers was assailing the religious
beliefs of his students through the
first chapter of the book, "Nature
and Man" The matter was brought
TO the attention of Dean Thompson
who declared he left it in the hands
Of Miss Jane Lawson, Chambers inn
mediate superior. Miss Lawson de-

tests that she referred the case to
Professor Dudley d. Griffith, head

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS
Charge Lyons Accusation unjust

Charge Lyons Accusation Unjust
Editor, The Daily Worker: In his
column "Footnotes to the News" Mr..
Eugene Lyons has accused the New
Playwrights Theatre Of catering to
frock coat critics and ignoring the
labor press. This is altogether false.
All the leading papers Of the labor
group are on our review lists, in
cluding Of course The Daily Worker.
It is possible that through oversight
our list may be incomplete, but no
labor press critic has asked in vain
for review tickets.
1t is true, as Mr.. Lyons said, that
neither the Federated Press nor Tass
were on our list. That was because
press and wire services are never on
review lists. This was not a dis
elimination against labor, because
we had no other news service Of the
sort on our list. We did not know
that either Tass or the Federated
Press handled anything but straight
news. Personally do not believe the
Federated Press reviews plays at all.
At Mr.. Lyons request telephoned
his office and offered him two second
night review tickets. Mr.. Lyons was
not in; was told the message would
be delivered, and that was the last
heard of the matter. We feel that
first night tickets ought to be re-
served for the daily papers, such as
The Daily Worker and the metro
politan press, which must have re-
views at once. Weeklies and any

Chairman Carey announced "In two minutes the time

point is not well taken"
Ruthenberg appealed from the decision of the chairman
but his appeal turned down. But even that didn't
end it. Delegate Bessemer (ohio) got the floor and
merely requested that n order to be fair to everybody
move that Comrade Ruthenberg be allowed to read
the clause in Roberts Rules of Order that the delegates
in this convention may know whether right or
wrong"
At this point Delegate Morris Hillquit New York;
to the chairmans assistance with another point
of order declaring that There is nothing before the
house except the next order of business. We not

Rules of Order"
This was the usual Hillauit subterfuge Ruthenberg
was trying to get discussion the opportunst char
acer of the farmers program before the convention
The HhquitS Carey combination had forced the
fight over the rules of order to gag this discussion
Carey upheld Hilquits point of order but that only
brought Delegate Lewis J. Duncan of Montana the So
ciaist mayor of Butte to his feet demanding ap-
peal from the decision of the chairman The vote
position of sc delegates supporting Ruthenberg against
the LAG delegates who voted with the offcialdom.
Thus in 1872 Ruthenberg had raised the standards of
class struggle in his first national socialist convention
That the beginning of a continuous conflict with
which Ruthenberg demanded that emphasis be put the
ultimate demands Of socialism thus opposing the ten
dency to forget the final goal completely becoming r
retrievably lost in the swamp of immediate demands
It is significant today, however, that the program of
the Progressive Farmers of America recently organized
in Minneapolis, Mimi. is militant than the socialist
program adopted in 1912.
During the Is years since 1912 Ruthenberg fighting
for his principles has gradually won an increasing

thing like a wire service would
naturally go on the second night list.
Our house has only 400 seats and we
cannot crowd all critics in the same
night.
Many Of us feel that Mr.. Lyons
was venting personal pique in his
column. We certainly are NOT
catering to frock coats; we certainly
prefer labor class audience, as Mr..
Dos Passos said in his letter to the
press. Mr.. Lyons accusation is very
unjust and petty. AS a matter Of
fairness, won't you print this letter
either in or near his column?
