The Sunday program saw the
Grfffs break even with the White
sox. The Harris gang, playing the
poorest baseball in weeks and weeks,
won the opener. to 3. and lost a
well-played game in the nightcap, s
to /. incidentally, the White Sox
Victory was their first in eight
games.
Had Sam Jones pitched the opener,
he was given atrocious support, but
had so much stuff that the foe could
not win. And this is important, the
White Sox We're wretched in the field
making no fewer than five errors Of
commission. Ted Lyons sure was an
unlucky guy.
Grady Adkins pitched smoothly
and cleVerly in the second con-
test. In addition, he came
through with husky three-bag-
ger that settled the argument as
early as the second inning. After
that the boys from Washington
simply went through the motions.
Bump Hadley started against Ad-
kins, but he faded from the scene
when Tate hit for him in the fifth.
BY that time he had proved he lacked
the stuff to go the distance and
Lloyd Brown finished. The young
southpaw looked good in all but the
eighth inning when he was jumped
for couple of tallies.
The base running of the Griffs
in the first game was simply awful
Goslin ran bases like an old woman
of 81 and Buck Harris fell asleep
on second. Fully five runs were
thrown away by lethargic work on
the sacks and the Southside fans
were laughing at both teams before
the game was half done.
The Griffs hoped ahead in
the very first inning of the day
and were never tied i'm the first
game. They were aided q LOT
by the poor fielding OF the S0x.
Of course, but they were also
hitting Lyons hard. driving
plenty of wallops far out into
the field.

ticles assailing Marxism is perfect
in that it places in their present re-

Likewise the titles of the articles
eloquently reveal the attitude of the

they speak.

fessor of political economy at Har-

ford, and once time-server on the
Harvard faculty, now professor of
political science in the university of
London, a typical liberal with fab
ian socialist leanings, writes about
"The Value and Defects of the Marx

liberal, who boasts of his "broad-

what one would expect from the
theoretical leader of the socialist
party of America; an attempt to
emasculate Marxism into the dirty
sermonizing of a pacifist after the
approved fashion of the leaders of
the second international. Hillquit's
article is by far the most malignant,
inasmuch as he processes to be a
follower of Marx, while perverting
Marxism in the most shameful man
ner. Although Hillquit and the dis
ciples Of the second international in

useful to the bourgeoisie than Car

IT is eminently fitting that Current
1 History, in quest of contributors
to its columns on the general sub
ject of "Marxism Today" should
choose Thomas Nixon Carver, Har-
old ]. Laski and Morris Hillquit as
qualified to deal with the subject in
manner entirely satisfactory to the
New York Times company, publish
ers of the magazine. These three
writers by inclination, by their
class interests and by their training
personify, to high degree, the
three principal categories of defend
ers of the bourgeoisie and enemies
of the proletarian revolution.

off than those who are able to
think. l resist the temptation to
draw the logical inference as APP
piled to Carver.
To reply to every idiotic detail of
Carver's article would be waste of
time. l have sufficiently indicated
the fundamental errors, the stupidity
or dishonesty of Carver to discredit
him in the eyes of any intelligent
reader.
There is, however, one more gem
that | cannot resist the temptation
to Indicate Carver argues that
people may become rich without
owning either land or capital. He
probably imagines this will BATTLE
all Marxists and reduce us to silence;
"A popular movie actor, prize
fighter author or anyone else
who satisfies a popular demand
becomes rich without owning
either land or capital. Any CO.
cupation or trade in which work.
erS are scarce pfOSpeTS, any III
which workers are superabun-
dant suffers impoverishment."
Since labor is the sole value
creating element in production the
latter sentence is obviously an ex-
ample of bourgeois dumbness.
The interesting thing about the
quotation is the stale attempt to
place movie actors, prize fighters
and authors in the category Of wage
workers, just because they get a
certain price for their Services"
Marx also had something to say
about this sort Of thing: COLLECTS
that in themselves are no COM
modities such as conscience, honor,
etc, are capable of being offered
for sale by their holders, and Of thus
acquiring, through their price, the
form Of commodities. Hence an OBJ
ject may have price without hav-
ing value" Capital, Vol. l, p 115).
The observation is particularly APP
plicable to bourgeois university pro-
fessors.

LANGDON SCHOOL
/ PLANS DISCUSSED
Municipal Architect Makes
Annual Report to Com
Inissioners.

Plans for new type of school build
ing In the District and the landscaping
of school grounds are discussed by A.
T.. Harris, municipal architect. In his
annual report submitted to the Com
hnissioners yesterday.
The first of the new type of building
% be planned is the Langdon School,
which is expected to be under contract
during the fiscal year. This new type
consists of two two-story buildings con-
nected by corridor. on the cross axis
of which Is placed an auditorium and
gymnasium.
According to Mr. Harris, the new de-
sign is in answer to the demand for
Kraded school buildings with only one
Night of stairs, as these buildings now
house only children of the lower grades.
The building will provide Is classrooms
with proper facilities for manual train
ing, domestic science and domestic art
departments Accommodation for prin-
eipal and teachers also are provided.
Mr.. Harris makes q plea that the
Board of Education provide extra help
during the Spring and Summer for care
Of trees, shrubs and lawns installed
under the new policy of the District of
landscaping public schoolgrounds. Con-
Rress has appropriated 100000 for this
purpose, the report points out, and con-
siderable progress is being made on de-
signs which will give new buildings
particularly beautiful surroundings.
He said: "As the care of these gar
dens entails additional work on the
part of janitors, it is important that
the service be augmented during the
Spring and Summer months, when
lawns and plants require so much at
tention. It is hoped therefore, that the
Board Of Education will see that proper
care Is given to the plants installed and
that replacements are made when nee
kssary."
