somebody very big. The trap was
picked up. That gave Whitley terri
bic feeling. The door was opened ever
so little and Farmer Browns Boy
peeped in.
"Ahal' exclaimed Farmer Browns

but YOU don't need to be. Do you know
why I've caught you? Or course, you
don't. I've caught you to save your
life. You will live longer now than IL
you hadn't been caught"
OF course, Whitley didn't understand
A word of this, Even If he had under
stood he wouldn't have believed word
of it, He would have been sure that
nothing more dreadful could have hap
pened to him.
Across the Green Meadows and up
the Long Lane, straight to the barn,
Whitley was carried. but of course, he
had no idea of where he was being
carried. He couldn't even peep outside.
once in the barn, Farmer Browns Bay
very carefully opened the door and put
his hand in the trap. Then he lifted
Whitley out. Poor Whitley! He was
terribly frightened. Yet even in his
fright he realized that Farmer Browns
Boy was very gentle. The latter looked
Whitley all over.
There isn't any doubt about 1t" said
he to Farmer Brown, who had come TO
see what he had this is one of Peter
Rabbits children. II is a white cotton

asked Farmer Brown

Farmer Browns Boy. I've got nice

He wouldn't be safe if should let him
go. with that white coat he is too
easily seen. 1t wouldn't be long before
a hawk or an owl or fox picked him
up"
So Whitley was taken outside to a
nice. comfortable wire pen. There was
a nice little house in it, with bed of
hay. There was room enough in tho
pen TO hop about, and, best of all. there
was plenty of food. Whitley couldn't
get out. but neither could any of his
enemies get in. He was, as Farmer
Browns Boy had said, quite safe His
new home was even safer than the dear
Old Briar- patch, and that is saying a
great deal.

DEATH ON CHURCH THANK FOR AID
Called Aid to U. S.
Imperialism

"The Catholic Church has Just
committed one of its greatest crimes
when they caused a poor, fanatical
23-year-old boy to kill General AL
varo Oregon" writes Salvador De
la Plaza, in the current issue of the
Labor Defender.
The writer, who is secretary of
the Continental Committee of the
All-America Anti-Imperialist League
in Mexico City, in the same article,
just published, traces the role of the
church in Mexico since its loss of
power after the fall of Porfirio Diaz
in 1910.

Victoriano Huerta against Madero
in 1913, and in the very legation of
the United States it planned the
crime with Mr.. Wilson. the then
minister of Mexico, De La Plaza
charges.
During the eighteen years of
civil war, at times with British i'm
perialism, at others with the Amer
lean, and always with the help of,
and aiding the Spanish capitalists,
it used the fanaticism of the pea
SAINTS and raised the standard of
'Cristo Rey" to incite the basest
passions; to steep in blood and crush
the struggle of the proletariat for
its emancipation"
The author analyses the new role
of the church today, subservient to
American financiers and the fight
against both by the Mexican work
ers, led by the growing Communist
Party of Mexico.
The article is illustrated by a
photograph of the welcome given
by armed Mexican workers in the
Vera Cruz district to Socrates San

American marines not only pro-

to fight for Wall Streets interests,
but many of them discuss the idea
of group assertions to Sandino's
army, according to a letter from a
sailor whose ship carried the U. s.
forces to Nicaragua.
The sailor also declares that the
servicemen are dissatisfied with
their conditions and treatment and
have short talks" on the matter.
However, he says at is pretty risky
and it's not done often. But they
have their talks now and then"
The letter, in part, follows:
"They (the marines) didn't seem
to like the idea of going down there
to fight, and there was talk on the
ship about a bunch of them desert
ing and joining SANDING.
"The sailors are dissatisfied with
the regulations, also with the food
and the way it is put out. They
have short talks, but as yuo know
yourself, it's pretty risky and it's
not done often. But they have their
talks now and then"
