The Hearst F0ygg,Ies and Wall Streets Mexican Policy

+ IF this scheme is successful, long
step will have been taken toward the
conquest of Latin-America.
Alternatives for Gales.
Lenin said one time that it is hard
to win over revolutionists with club
but sometimes easy to do it by kind
ness. This applies with far greater
force to a middle class which has
gained victory over feudal-clerical
reaction and is trying to establish
national capitalism in an imperiallst
period, than it does to working class
revoluticnists.
The Gales government has two al
ternatives-to fight for the interests
of the workers and farmers as against
those of their exploiters, build mass
support against American imperial
ism and take the lead in establishing
powerful anti.imperialist bloc Or
surrender to Wall Street, become a
government somewhat similar to that
of the Free State government of Ire
land and carry out the Wall Street
program.
The first alternative undoubtedly
carries with it the probability of in
vasion of Mexico by Wall Street gov
ernment but it likewise affords the
only possibility of preventing the con-
quest of Mexico.
Communist Tasks.
The Mexican masses are In a diff
cult position. They cannot afford to
support the Calles-Obregon bloc un-
reservedly. If they do, they will be-
core merely the steppingstones by
which Wall Street will rise to dom
nation over them.
The Mexican Communist Party has
the task of pointing out this danger
and of stimulating and leading mass
organization which can oppose Wall
Streets program of conquest the
might of a people in arms. The Mex
lean masses should not be fooled by
the mellifluous phrases of Morrow.
MorrOw's Backing.
Behind Morrow stands the army

government and if the Gales govern
ment does not tell the workers what
the Morrow policy means, it is a
sign that it is already on the way to
surrender.
The Real Question.
The question is not Hearst or Nor
row. The difference between them is
one of method in a given period and
rot CT general policy.
The question is: Organization of
and struggle by the Mexican masses,
! aided by the workers and farmers of
two continents, against all forms of
imperialist corruption and conquest or
or a weakening of the mass base
of the Mexican revolution by con-
tinual concessions to Wall Street end
ing in the final absorption of Mexico
by Wall Street government

Good Will"

The warm welcome accorded Nor
row, the almost hysterical welcome
to Lindbergh, "the good will ambas-
sador,' the recent statements of Cal
les, the fulsomely friendly tone of
the official Mexican press, on one
hand, tend to show that the mailed
fist in the velvet glove" policy of
Morrow is having some effect in
breaking down resistance to Wall
Street domination.
The Press.
On the other hand the American
capitalist press grows lyrical over the
achievements of Morgan's partner in
his new post Liberal journals like
The Nation join the chorus. The Ma
ton says in its issue for December
81: "Mr. Morrow seems to be in a
fair way to make the United States
popular in Mexico and Mexico popu-
lar in the United States--a work of
genius after decades of blunderbuss-
ing. If he concludes by persuading

Hearst. We are for telling the Mex
lean masses the truth-that both aim
at conquest and that both must be
fought as part of the machinery of
American Imperialism, that whoever
says otherwise is an enemy of the
Mexican masses.
Hearst, as the representative of one
section of the ruling class carries his
gun in his hand-it is an old-fash-
Toned single-action Colt revolver.
Morrow carries his in the waist
band of his well-tailored trousers--it
is pearl-handed automatic.
Morrow is the most dangerous for
the Mexican masses because they are
led to believe that Morrow does not
carry gun.

Dumb Detectives Con-
tribute the Comedy at
the Broadway Theatre

THERE is a ferocious gorilla loose in
the city. It's shadow is seen on
the walls Of the town. It's figure
looms over the buildings. A mon
strous menace this is. Men are found
strangled, their necks broken in a
viselike grip. that spells death for the
victims. After each murder the radio
is used to warn the inhabitants: Be-
ware! Lock your doors and windows,
the gorilla has taken another life!
And then there are two dumb de-
tectives. On the right-Mulligan,
Clarity on the left. Chas Murray is
Clarity. Tho he, like Mulligan, does
no credit to the intelligence of the
Irish, their antics keep the audience
in good humor and occasional out
breaks of hearty laughter. In fact,
everytime their slapstick comedy
seemed outrageously overdone, the
audience let loose another apprecia-
tive roar of laughter to confound this
reviewer. Solve this mystery if you
will.

The Oil Baron's Policy.

The policy of the oil barons and
their associates, among whom is num-
bered William Randolph Hearst, is
for the creation of sentiment in the
United States which will not only
oppose armed intervention in the near
future but will support and urge it..
Therefore the attempt to prove that
the Mexican government is plotting
against the United States, that Cath
Ollie priests and laymen are being per-
secuted, that the Gales government
is "a tool of Moscow" that all Mex
leans hate all Americans, that the

Paris Sister OF
Mercy Spends 46

PARIS, May 9.-Forty six years
III the prisons of France, not for
punishment, but to give solace to

won the Cross Of the Legion OF
Honor for Madcmoiselle Gabrielle
Ciaudine Chabat, better known as
Sister Marieperpetue, Mother Su-
perior of the nuns ministering to
the famous Saint LaZare prison for
women.
Sister Marie Perpetue served in
the prisons of Doulens, Montpelier
and Rouen, and in 1902 she came to
Paris, or rather to Saint-Lazare, for
her Paris is Saint Lazare. When

In % years, Sister Marie Perpetue
has rarely left the series of grim

cost the lives of two lovely concu-

which led to this search.
According to her story as told to
officials of the Palace Museum, the
late Empress Dowager who is famed
as China g last strong ruler, and
who ruled the weakling Kwang Hsu
with the proverbial rod of iron, re-
sorted to sale of office to crafty
her desire for funds with which to
carry out such projects as the build

whole Imperial household and two
concubines accepted Il bride of

Bicycle Riding
Good For Health

A quarter of Il century ago BIZ
cycling was fad. People went
wild about it. Boys and girls used
to conduct bicycle parties to neigh.
boring towns for the sport of the
ride, and it was good healthy sport.
Then bicycling ceased to be fad,
and when people rode their bikes
they rode not for the pleasure or
for the heathful exercise, but be.
cause it was time-saver or was
more convenient.
With the coming of the automo,
bile, the bicycle became almost
strictly business utility with most
Americans; the bicycle was relegat-
ed far to the rear as a legitimate
vehicle to health and the instrument
of clean sport.
But while the Americans neglect
ed the bicycle for heathful exercise
and grew fat on the padded cush-
ions of motor ears, the people of
Europe continued to use the bicy.
Gle for removing surplus fat and
for exercise; prince and peasant
continued to ride the bicycle, gen.
orally speaking, while in this coun-
try the cases of the bicycle riders
who rode for their health were COM
paratively few.
But bicycling is again coming
back in America, and every indca-
tion is that there IS to be a great
revival of safety riding Of
course, there are hundreds of peo.
pie who have always ridden the
bicycle and never thought of Civ
ing it up, but the bulk of them ride
because they do not want to walk
and because the bike is cheaper by
far than the automobile.
When the bicycle comes into its
own again it will be because of the
healthy appetite that comes from
the exercise, along with stronger
muscles and bodily fitness
