NAT BOSS WILL SIT /.
AT FOUR MEETINGS
Minor, Major, Joint, Rules
Sessions, Maybe Trades,
on Full Program.
BY JOHN b. KELLER.


"AKE 1t from Clark Griffith,
president Of the Nationals,
i he has no idea of what he
may do In a trading way
when he attends the annual Ses-
sions Of the minor and major
leagues early next month, but 1t
isn't likely that the Washington
prexy Is going to the meetings
merely to pal around with his
old base ball cronies.
WHILE this Washington ball club was
Wv pretty good as 1t finished the 1880
campaign, it still can stand some
bolStertng in several positions and one
may be sure Griflth will be quite ready
to do some dickering for players If
opportunity offers. The Nationals
could well use another pitcher, a clever
rtght-hand swinging outfielder would
come In handy and there would be no
turning up Of noses at nkely-looking
Second-sacker.
Now there are on the Washington
roster only 40 players, the maximum
allowed by the rules of organized base
the Nationals have scads Of players
and It is reasonable to suppose some
Of this excess will be Topped from the
club in the near future. Therell be
no looping. however, unless the
Nationals get something in the nature
Of requirements.
While in many ways Clark Griffith
Is generous, mighty generous man,
he isn't one to give away base ball
material for nothing. For that matter,
neither is any other base ball magnate.
II some Nationals go others will step
In to take their places. And in any
trade the Old Fox may be expected
to get a pretty good break.
Under the circumstances 1t does not
seem that Griffith is to go to the meet
ings merely to swap yarns with other
old-timers. More than likely 1t will
be to swap talent.

But our obligations do not end here. Our OBJ

lynching and fight race discrimination. Did we
do this? Let us take Cleveland district as an
example. We built an anti-lynch organiza-
ton but during the days of its birth we did
not hold one meeting (open air street meeting)
against lynching when the toll amounted to two
lynchings day! And we must frankly admit
that the Young Liberators in any section Of
the country have not fulfilled its obligations
as militant anti-lynch youth reorganization.
This does not mean that the program Of the
Young Liberators is not correct but that we

Paramount Pictures, with page ed in eva
riety," the theatrical paper, advertising another
page ad in the Saturday Evening Post.
And we ask you, frankly, which week is not
prosperity week in the Saturday Evening Post?
Anyhow, the Variety ad shows the happiest
and snappiest Uncle Sam you've seen in a blue
moon, dashing one step behind his shadow to-
ward some unknown destination, very likely
to the movies to get lead on Jimmy Walker
before all the prettiest "fixed stars" are strung
on the mayorial string.
Incidentally, the Paramount pictures are such
flops that to get any prosperity out Of 'en1, the

that follows tree sitting, "buy bale of cotton"

The N. Y. Times
Versus the N. Y. Times
By JORGE

meaning "bull"), who is the owner of the N. Y.
Times and of "our" SO rulers, would quit
calling himself liar and proving it. That's
Job not his.
In short Gf Communist is allowed to the
word short in talking about wheat) we wish
the N. Y. Times would either quit lying about
Soviet wheat deals stop exposing itself.
For ten days or so, the Times has been rant
ting in headlines of space against
Soviet bear raids" and Some of ita
headlines and news summaries show up as fol-
lows:
SOVIET SHORT SALES BREAK WHEAT

WORLD BEAR DRIVE is SEEN"-Sept. %.

the world wheat markets upset by Soviet tao
tics..." Measures to meet Soviet dumping -"
"A flood of Russian wheat feared" And any
number of other lies, both plain and fancy.
1t Is particularly important to note that the
Times puts this kind of anti Soviet propaganda
on the front page, featuring it in every way
that its readers can't miss 1t.
But the editorial page, where COMPARE
lively few readers turn to read except those who
understand that the stuff the front page is

the Young Liberators but failed to realize its
tremendous tasks and obligations.
Another example to point out the danger
of self-satisfaction and our shortcomings in
fulfilling our obligations. The basic point in
our new methods of work and change in our
work is turn to the masses Of young workers.
We have fine resolutions to prove our good
intentions and also to show our shortcomings.
This is only dissatisfaction. Our obligations
is to 60 to the young workers and the yard
stick to measure our success is to show con-
cre.ely what we have done. The following is
coming in our obligations.
In Detroit there was recently held Aug. 81
a national conference of worker sportsmen.
This conference represented approximately five
thousand young workers and students. The De-
troit DO. was called to a fraction meeting to
help formulate policies and give his opinions
on methods of work. He refused to come!
HIS reason was that he did not have time for
sports work because he was busy with Y.C.L.
work.
The question before the Plenum is not only
to discuss the correctness of our methods of
work and our program and policies-but an
timation to what extent have we fulfilled our
obligations. The present period places tremen-
dous tasks and obligations before us. Our an
swer must be "At your service" to the day to
day demands in leading the struggles Of the
toiling youth and the fulfillment of the every
day tasks which confronts revolutionary or
ganization. Only in this manner can we full
fill our ultimate obligation--the overthrow Of
the capitalist system and the building Of a So
cialist society.

Communists, the socal-fascist Socialists" pro-
pose more prisons!"
This is in keeping with the proposals Of the
capitalsts-and the Socialists" as the third
capitalist party, are not to be outdone.
What Do the Communists Demand?
The Communist Party is against the whole
prison system and demands complete change
1t demands the abolition of the Baumes law
which can send working class prisoners to the
penitentiary for life! The Communist Party
points out that the police, courts and the whole
penal system are capitalist class institutions
against the working class, intended to crush
the fighting spirit Of the workers.
The Communist Party declares that the con-
dtions that cause crime will continue as long
as the capitalist system of dog against dog,
continues. Only by overthrowing the capitalist
system and establishing "a workers. and far
mers' government in which working class JUS
tice will be meted out, can the question Of
crime be solved. :.

radical change in our methods OF work there is
one danger which we face at the coming Plen-
i'm OF the Y.C.L. Some comrades will report
successes Of these new methods Of work and
Others will direct wholesome criticism of our
shortcomings. The yardstick at the Plenum
must not be the recording of successes and the
enumeration of shortcomings in our work but to
establish the fnct to what extent have we lived
up to our obligations as a revolutionary leader
of the working youth. The danger is that we
may become ecclesiastical with successes and
also self-satisfied with criticism but will fail

This is the Fifth of the series of articles

In its eagerness to separate itself even from
the word "Marxism," the Socialist" Party
talks and writes in true capitalist fashion.
Crime and prison statistics are more or less
available today and every capitalist reformer
knows that in times of economic depression
the prisons fill up. But how do they explain
that the number of criminals" and inmates
in the penal institutions of this country-yes
of hospitals and insane asylums, is constantly
on the increase? There is a steady line up
ward despite periods of prosperity.
Prisons Filling Up.
At the present time, in the period Of econo-
mic crisis, with 100000 unemployed tramp
ing the streets hungry and desperate; millions
working part or full time at wages that do not
keep body and soul together; with speed up
in factories, mines and offices, stores exhoust-
ing men and women before they are 40 years
of age, is it any wonder that the prisons are
filling up?
Today, in the crisis, it is admitted that the
number of insane has increased tremendously
so that new asylums have to be built-general

One day not so long ago this clever bowman
bagged a 50-pound wildcat at 40 yards and
then strolled to his favorite angling spot and
yanked some 200 fish weighing from l to 10
pounds per each during the next three hours
No, you are wrong as an incorrect watch.
Not just another fishing tale fabricated from
fiction, but a story as truthful as George Wash

measured the "cat," counted and weighed the
fish and timed the interval. When your writer
looked askance on hearing this tale-as you

1t is just another job for the undertaken to

that employed commonly in ny casting These
arrows are made Of snakewood, tough, heavy,
resilient and penetrating material adapted for
that purpose. The snakewood arrow penetrates
the water better than any other known wood
which is available for arrow production These
fishing arrows are 80 inches In length, weigh
soc grains each and have metallic points which
resemble midget harpoons. The brass tip Of
the arrow terminates In a 2-inch steel point
about the size Of finishing nail. Two steel
barbs are attached to each arrow approximately
3 inches from the tip. They are slanted toward
the feathered end Of the arrow in such manner
that they hold the fish imprisoned after the
