pADICALS observe Christmas, not
because they feel like worship
ping the descent of the stork on a
lowly Bethlehem domicile, but for the
good and sufficient reason that all
human beings like to surrender to
christianity at least once year. The
catholic church knows thru the con-
fessional that all people are human,
and the ability Of the catholic church
TO diagnose the cravings of human
being is in no small degree respon-
sible for that church's success.
GUCCESS! In the last analysis it
~ means the ability to survive, and
while the development of the tool of
production is responsible for all
change land necessity Is the mother
of inventory there are so many by
products of this general principle that,
as far as most people are concerned,
the Incidental things dominate the
fundamental.
COMMUNISTS do not fall for desul-
~ tory philosophizing. The editorial
staff of The DAILY WORKER does
not write according to Hoyle, but
according to Lenin and Marx. There
fore you will not read any New Year
sermons In The DAILY WORKER.
Our sermons are just as fresh in June
as in December. The New Republic
is responsible for those observations.
AS you may know, The New Republic
is weekly magazine that caters to
that section of the capitalist class that
lives on dividends extracted from the
enslaved workers by efficient slave
drivers like Ebert Gary. The New
Republic tribe abuse Gary for being
so raw, but draw their dividends and
abuse the Communists for being SO
raw-on the other side.
TN a decisive struggle between labor
4 and capital The New Republic tribe
will stick to the capitalist system.
But in the meantime the liberals are
positive nuisance to the capitalist
fundamentalists. And by capitalist
fundamentalists l mean those who
are convinced that any system is JUS
titled in using any means at its dis
posal to maintain its supremacy.
HERE Is where The New Republic
IL comes IN. am qaoting from the
issue of January 5, 1927: "A survey
of world affairs as 1927 opens reveals
a clear advance over the situation a
year ago. In western Europe the ten
sion has been greatly relaxed by the
entrance of Germany into the league
and the coming into effect of the
Locarno treaties, and while the eco
nomic situation leaves much to be de-
sired, it is now certain that the worst
corner has been turned"
4 out a certain number of words for
his employer turned out the kind of
language that vegetarians, chiroprac-
tors, fanatics and anti-everythingites
(for anti's sake) cherish. But what
We are concerned with is the assump-
ton that the league of nations wants
peace, or that spiritual urges have a
determining effect on the course Of
history. No. Those of US who write
for an organization know that all
things that are written do not always
represent the views of the man behind
the typewriter, but the collective view
of the organization for which he
works. The league Of nations is the
creature of Imperialism, which only
wants peace to the extent that 1t feels
that peace may be conducive to its
well-being.
yLIHEN a liberal paper suggests or
w states emphatically that the
league of nations or any other crea-
ton of imperialism aims to eliminate
war, the best thing We can do Is to
suggest that our readers indulge in a
hearty guffaw New Years resolu-
tions in capitalist papers have two
eyes on the advertising revenue that
flows from increased circulation. We
tell the truth as we see it, because
