financings of wars) and consequently a cores
pond1ng fall in real wages.
An insuffciency OF the first articles of neceS-
sity will soon make itself felt in the bulk of the
countries and their icite sale to the bourgeoisie
at fabulous prices will be seen. For the working
class employees and the wide strata of the petty
bourgeoisie the planned" economy Will soon be-
come simply organized starvation"
simultaneously naturalization and intensific-
alton of labor will be speeded up to an unheard
OF degree, The new impetus Will start from that
degree of intensification Of labor which it would
appear could not be intensified further and at
many enterprises the workers will utterly ex-
haust themselves literally during the space of
few years AL that will be left Of the labor pro-
tective measures, as well as ell limitations on
working hours, ETC., will be annulled and for
gotten.
The Dispersed Front
Further, we must remember the influence the
dispersed front" (Which had no place in the
last war; will have, eg., the constant risk and
danger to which everyone will be exposed. The
whole country will experience the tension and
nervous strain of the front, will live in constant
expectation of sudden attack. One prominent
American chemist has said that directly war is
declared he will hasten to the 'front.' as this will
be the safest, the quietest place during the war
OF tne future.
The latter part Of this statement is hardly
true, for monstrous engines OF mass extermina-
ton will be set in motion at the front too but
it is true that there Will be no great difference
in this respect between the front lines and the
rear. Indeed, the close and numerous connec-
tons between the and the front will rapid
ly tend to equalize the feelings and the general
mood obtaining in the armies and among the
workers "at home
Despite the vigilant efforts of the military
dictatorship, despite, too the powerful influence
capitalist and reformist agitation and propa-
ganda will exercise (Which undoubtedly will
again successfully convince considerable sec
ton of the toilers at the beginning of the war
that they fighting for the "motherland")
all these factors will gradually, but steadily and
irrevocaby, undermine the civil peace" un-
stable as it already is.

What Can You Expect?

We were overjoyed to learn that the Young
Communist League is very much ALL RIGHT-O
but that was, or is, in Minnesota!
There the Y. c. L. has lot of fine farmer lads
who after long days in the fields still find time
for work in the League, says the Y c. L. District
Organizer, Have they time for study too, Com
rade? Don't forget that!
Yes, we're proud of Minnesota. And we ara
also proud of the many fine girls and boys right
here in New York who have the makrgs OF our
future Party in their hands
But we can't say that we were otherwise than
hurt to learn that a group of the League Of
Struggle for Negro Rights in this benighted city
has removed Y. G. L. member from the execu-
tive 'for inactivity" and mass organization OF
youth had to explain to the Z. c. L. that another
League member conducted himself SO stupidity
sectarian and snobbish that it was forced 10
exclude him from its ranks
When non-Party workers reluctantly take such
steps it appears to us that the League itself
might find time to translate self criticism from
abstraction to action.

This is the fourth of series Of articles

ions) which give in clear outline, the forecast
of what war will bring the conditions that will
ensue and the historic developments that Will
mark the transformation of the capitalist war
into civil war, developments in which every
worker will find it necessary to act agent
of that transformation. Let all understand,
then, that the developments which are today
hut forecasts, will tomorrow be grim realities
which must be faced-Editor.
1t will be absolutely impossible to forsee how
it will all end and who viii come OUT victorious
only one result is able-there will be
general exhaustion and the creation of condi-
lions that Will bring about the nnal victory of
the working class.
Such are the prospects in store for us If the
system of mutual competition in ornaments is
carried to the extreme and yields its inevitable
fruits. There, kings and statesmen, that is
where you are leading old Europe with all your
wisdom! And if you feel that there is nothing
left but to start the last war dance-We have
no objection. Let the war even throw us back
perhaps for decade Let some of the positions
we have won be taken from u.s. But if you re-
lease the forces which will later be beyond your
control, then no matter how things may go, you
will be overthrow at the end of the tragedy,
and the victory of the proletariat will either be
won or be still as inevitable.
Despite all the plans" of the war economy,
the preparation of reserves, etc. (rather as
result of these plans subordinated to serve
capitalism during imperialst war;, the pressure
on the broad masses of the toilers will become

It's Too Bad

My dear sir:-Your attention is invited 10
the encosed literature with the view OF enlistina
your sympathy and support in campaign to
secure national recognition OF Christ the King.
God the Father Is the source OF all authority In
civil government; Jesus Christ His Son is this
divinely appointed Ruler Of Nations; submissions

are quoting letter. It is signed by W. j. Cole

Well, II these are the reformed" guys, what
are the hardshells like? All they want is King.
and the first step is to get the u S. Constitution
changed to recognize" monarchy in the form or
religion Listen to their lament:
ut is striking and lamentable fact, however
We may account for it, that there is no recognition
OF God in the National Constitution"
Well, we don't care! But this sort of thing
shows you that under capitalism you can expect
to run across anything prehistoric like dinosaur
trotting up Fifth Avenue.

Night Hawk

In the N. Y. (Porno) Graphic there is a clap
who is an engaging liar writing undec the name
of 1.-THE Night Hawk" who is supposed 70 get
into the gangs of the underworld the smuggiers
and so on, and EXPOSE them"
Actually he gets no further than the Harlem
speakeasies where, with the help CT liquid I'M
agnation he Celebrates the material on gang
land that can be found in any public library.
In the issue of Nov. II he tells tale that
should give the fascist dictator OF Cuba the JIM
mics. He says there are 10000 RED Russians
in Cuba, all waiting for the opportunity to be
struggled into the U. S. A."
Firstly we will bet, well . anything, that
there are not 10000 people of Russian birth in
Cuba, let alone Red Russians" Ani the fake
of the story is evident when we consider that
the Night Hawk talks like it was the easiest
thing in the world to get struggled into the
U. S. if you have the kale, ana he says they
have it in Mgonloads-yet there they stick,
those 10000 waiting"
They certainly must be desperate characters
if they want to get into this starvation ridden
land So the Night Hawk says:-"Fiery young
sters and girls feverish with Thoughts of the
Third International" We never saw a girl get
a Second International fever, so it may be true,
but it sounds funny
And then: "You can see themo-the whole
10000, no doubt-"afterward haranguing the
crowds in Union Square, New York"
Did you ever see worse liar get paid for such
rubbish Old man McFadden must be short Of
sense and long on dollars to hire such pineheads.
incidentally, the World Telegram, which writes
such heart-rending editorials against bosses lay
ing off workers, has not long ago fired nearly all
the old workers it took over from the world"
Some of the most loyal upholders of capitalism
too. So being snake is no guarantee of a job
these days.
About these RED Russians" though. we have
been telling you that Doak would spring deporta-
ton charges against the American born And
now the Doak has charged Bill Dunno with being
a foreigner He was around strike, and that
is enough to make anybody foreigner SO If you
are an American, you better be able To prove it
pick out country to be deported to that has
a climate that agrees with you.

Anti-DepressiOn
Talk At Rotary

FL Centro Rotarians heard an in
teresting talk on the fallacy of be-
wailing about depression, gwen at
the weekly luncheon yesterday by
A. d. Girardot.
The speaker asserted that the
United States has no difficulty that
it cannot solve and that instead of
continuing the senseless talk about
depression, each individual should
do his part to stimulate business
activity. He recalled the spirit
shown by the country in the World
war and declared a return of this
same spirit of cooperation would
remedy any existing ills, real or
imaginary.
Announcement of the Watermelon
Fiesta to be held at City park next
Wednesday was made by E. B
Goodman, and Rotarians were
urged to be present to greet Gov
ernor Rolph, who will be the guest
of honor at the affair

JAIL SENTENCE
METED OUT IN
TILCHMAN CASE

George D. Tilghman was SEN
fenced to 80 days in the county jail
for contributing to the delinquency
of a minor after he waived prelimi-
nary hearing and appeared before
Judge A. c. Finney in superior
court this morning.
Tilghman was formerly charged
with a statutory offense against his
wife, but the charge was dismissed
when a writ of habeas corpus was
granted and the district attorney
discovered no section of the law
provided for such a crime as was
charged against the defendant.
A new complaint charging Thigh
man with contributing to the de-
hnquency of a minor was filed. In
justice court this morning he waiv-
ed arraignment and preliminary
hearing; and asked to be taken be-
fore the superior court.
Don Comfort, 81, one of the wit
nesses against Tilghman in the pre-
liminary hearing before the writ OF
habeas corpus was granted, is in the
county jail today facing trial in Riv-
erside county for alleged failure to
provide for his wife and minor
child
Comfort was arrested in Ell Gen.
tro by W. S. Keating, deputy sher-
if, after a warrant of arrest was
received from Beaumont. AS wit
ness in the Tighman case Comfort
| testified to Tilghmans treatment OF
his wife.

court, q deal between j. c. Poe and

brought up again today In Judge

CHAMBER URGES
ALL TO VOTE In
SCHOOL ELECTION

President r. B. Whitelaw of the
Fl Centro Chamber of Commerce
has issued the following statement
concerning tomorrow's school cleo
ton: 1T is exceedingly important
that large vote be recorded at to-
morrow's election for school trus-
tees. The schools are California's
most important institutions, that is,
more of our tax money is spent for
schools than for any other purpose.
Consequently the personnel of the
various school boards is a matter
of paramount Importance. Public
education in the United States is
properly considered our most i'm
portant communal activity and the
people should express themselves at
the polls and select for trustees
those in whom they have the great
est confidence.
"At tomorrow's election another
very important NJ meaSure will be voted
on. This is the plan of permitting
an annual assessment, not to exceed
25 cents per 500 valuation. TO be
issued for school buildings. This is
in lieu of bond issue, which latter
are very costly because the interest
often exceeds the principal.
"The measure proposed at tomor-
rows election is only permissive;
that is, it allows the elementary
school board to make this assess
ment, not exceeding IS cents on the
500, but it does not mean that the
board will necessarily levy 25 cents
tax each year.
There are in El Centro's eiemen-
tary schools something like 500 more
pupils today than were enrolled one
year ago. Every class room in the
city is crowded far beyond capacity
and additions are necessary. The
proper way to secure these additions
is by this annual tax levy in lieu
of a bond issue. Many of our most
thoughtful, conservative and intlu-
ential citizens have declared them
selves as being heartily in favor of
the proposed tax measure and ]
have not yet heard one voice in El
Centro raised against it. The pro-
posed measure provides the only
sane, economical and modern way
of adding to school facilities and !
hope a large number of electors &C
to the polls and this wise measure
carries overwhelmingly"

Pacific Coast
Training Camps
BY United Press

The redoubtable Chicago Cubs
bowed to the San Francisco Seals
OF the coast league yesterday by a
score of to 6. The game, featured
by excellent fielding on the part of
the Seals, was played in San
Francisco.
The Cubs hit into four double
plays but almost made up for it in
the eighth inning, when Delaney
gave them five runs on three hits.
The Seals, by reason of triple, two
doubles and eight singles, were too
far ahead by that time for the Cubs
to catch up. Sweetland, Warneke
and Hermann were used by Man
ager Rogers Hornsby, while Ernie
Jacobs and Delaney hurled for the
the Seals.
A high wind at Fresno accounted
for wild game between the Port
land Beavers and the Oakland
Acorns, won by the latter 10 to 13.
Fred Berger of the Beavers tried
to save the game in the ninth by
hitting a homer with the bases
full, but the Acorns still were six
runs ahead. Portland used Orwell,
Bonnelly and Heating on tn G
mound, and Oakland relied on Dag
liza and Gockel.
