Strikes Are the Order of the Day.

Strikes Are the Order of the Day.
The workers must not let them
selves be deceived by the big capital
ist newspapers-even those which
are trying to create an impression
of fairness" in the Sacco-Vanzetti
case. Every capitalist newspaper,
without exception, is trying to Gre
ate an atmosphere to make easier
the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti.
They are printing flaming headlines
which are very shrewedly implanting
the idea of ''bomb plots" as associ-
ated with the names and defense of
Sacco and Vanzetti. Still more
shrewedly and diabolically, is the
filthy and cruel lie of an impartial
investigation" by notorious class
enemies Of Sacco and Vanzetti is
discussed in hypocritically respectful
terms. The contempt and hatred of
the masses by the prostitute capital
ist press shows through their efforts
to create the superstition that the
ruling class tools of Massachusetts
are acting on the basis of legal pos
sibilities" and not upon the basis of
their own interests and fears. AL
ready one powerful capitalist news
paper, engaged in paving the way
for the quiet murder, even while it
pretends to be a 'friend" of Sacco
and Vanzetti, has discharged one
famous liberal writer for daring to
write some of the truth on this case.
Not one of the capitalist newspapers
has yet dared to print the truth of
the Sacco-Vanzetti case. All Of them
may be expected to flood the country
with the necessary lies at the last
minute, to quiet the workers or to
frighten them with "bomb plots" of
provocateurs.
Workers! Don't trust the capital
ist press! Rely on your own strength
to free Sacco and Vanzetti!
The flood of strikes which swept
the country during the last few days
before the reprieve-these were the
cause of Butcher Fuller's hesitation
to kill Sacco and Vanzetti. More
strikes--a hundred times more and
bigger strikes must be made in or
der to carry Sacco and Vanzetti out
of the death house and out Of the
prison to the streets and freedom.
Workers! Organize mass meetings!
Organize street parades!
In all parts of the world--Europe,
China, India, South Africa, Austria
liza, South America-the workers are
pouring out on strike to save our
heroes, our brothers, who are in the
death house of Massachusetts! But
the workers of the United States
must show their spunk even more
than any others. We must not be
left behind. Ours is the first duty.
Take up the question in your trade
unions. Take it up with your shop
mates-right away, now, today! Talk
strike, get your shopmates with you,
and walk out! Compel your boss to

Current EUenkS

GREAT BRITAIN is preparing for
VI actual war with the Soviet Union.
The developments have gone beyond
intrigue with border states, assassina-
tion plots and attempts to foment
civil war. In last Saturdays issue
Of the Herald Tribune, Harold E.
Scarborough, that newspapers corre-
spondent in London, has an article
which gives in more or less detail
the military preparations now being
made by England for the war that is
considered inevitable.
1T is reported that Soviet troops are
massing in Turkestan but this
British story is merely an excuse to
increase the Indian army. When
Lord Birkenhead, speaking in the
house of lords on March 30th last
declared that the strength of the In
dian army must be measured in re-
lation to wider contingencies he had
in mind an attack on the U.S.S.R.
And the former Labor Peer" Vis-
count Haldane, suggested that a part
of the home army be transferred to
India.
IT is now stated that the Indian army
will be placed under direct control
of the war office, a development
making for greater imperial efficiency
and permitting the British govern

cal requirements demand its presence,
The first move of the British in q
military sense is forecast for Spring
The British are expected to move from
Iraq and perhaps thru Persia. And
it is said that France is watching the
British movements with a sympa-
thetic eye. So that we have the testi-
mony of the capitalist press itself
that war against the U.S.S.R. is i'm
ninent.
THE Soviet Union is a thorn in the
i side of world capitalism Its de-
struction would open up vast field
for unhampered capitalist exploita-
ton and would be the signal for an
attack on labor in all countries that,
if successful, would reduce the work
ers to condition of servitude never
before experienced in the history Of
man. This war is looming on the
political horizon and no duty is more
urgent on us than to drill its in
evitability into the minds of the
masses and point out what it means
to them.

of them as individuals, DR.. Ballou ex-
plained that three classiflcations We're
established-the accelerated, the aver
age" and the below the average. Those
children assigned to the first group,
he said, are those pupils who naturally
are able to assimilate knowledge more
RAPIDLY than the prescribed course al
lows. The average" group are those
best suited by the regular course, ana
the third class includes those pupils
who. although not backward" in the
sense of being unable to learn. require
a longer period to cover the same
work which other children are able to
complete in short order.
Grouping Reflects on Finances.
Bv reducing the number of pupils
required to repeat" their classes
through failure, Dr. BallOu declared
the advantages of the scientific group
ing are reflected in the school systems
budget. On basis of $G4 per year
per pupil for elementary school educa-
ton, the 1000 pupils in accelerated
classes in the District to date, who, IT
Is estimated could complete eight
years prescribed work in seven years,
would represent a saving of $4,000.
In his conclusion, Or. Ballou char
acteriZed education as "a state func-
ton. supported by public taxation on
the wealth of the state for the instruc'
ton of all the children Of all the peo'
pie regardless of the financial status
of their parents or their position in So
ciety," and he charged:

The failure in class work of nearly

evidence for the need of closer atten'

working untold harm in its moral ef-

Sees Mental Differences
Recognizing mental differences as

physical differences in children, DR..
Ballou advocated the classification of
pupils into homogeneous groups as a
means of affordinC school system

pupils themselves. In one Washing

audience of teachers, failures were rn-
duced from 60 to 2S in a. total enroll
