simply act as though you had right
to speak to them because you belong
them, but don't appear to be run
ming after them. You have plenty
of time to make boy friends, so
don't worry too much about it.
JOY: Yes, it is pretty much of
muddle and | cannot make it all
out myself. That is, don't know
whether you still care for b or
whether you are Just sadly disap-
pointed or so disillusioned that you
have ceased to care for him.
1t would have been better if yon
had given him chance to explain
before writing the harsh letter in
stead of afterward, as you realize.
But since | take it that all is over
between you, you are perfectly right
in wanting your photographs and let
tiers back and | do think that you
would feel better if he returns them.
This is customary favor to ask and
one which he should grant willingly
without hesitation. He will grant
your request at once if he is gen
tleman. Just write note saying
that since your letters and photo
graphs are meaningless to him now,
you would very much appreciate his
returning them to you and you are
intending to return his.
You will get over the blow ana
be glad, after while, that you
found out the truth. So cheer up
and write again at any time. Your
letter is not too long.
Mr.. q Blue: This girl probably did
think she cared for you, until she
went back among her own people
and realized how much more she had
in common with them.
Instead of tlkpking that this is 60
ing to wreck your love for women,
you really should be glad that the
girl was honest enough to tell you
the truth before longer time went
by. | think she is right about it. Diff
ferences in nationality are often
though not always important
enough to cause discord after mar
riage. For that reason | am in
clined to think that you would both
be happier caring for someone of
your own nationality.
A boy has the advantage over a
girl in being able to look around and
choose someone he thinks he likes,
while girl can't so easily "pick
and choose" Even though you are
feeling pretty blue right now, and
may for awhile, you can and will
get over it. You know yourself that
there are dozens of nice girls, so
make up your mind to become ac-
quainted with some of them as soon
'as you feel little more like doing
so. Almost every one has an expert
ence of this kind at some time in his
life-only many are much more Sc
rious.
In time you will probably meet
another girl for whom you care and
who cares for you great deal more
than the other one. Then you won't
feel so sorry that this happened.

Dear Miss White:
When well along in my twenties

She was just as much in love will

later | was shocked to find thai
things were not right. AT the same
time my wife turned against me.
pleaded, begged and even wanted tc
leave myself, but to no avail. Final,
| sent her away. She returned, but
not to me. By summer both of us
will be free to go our own ways. vii
she be happy?
Now, my problem is trying tc
forget her and find girl who wants
home as much as | do. | have beer

the morrow will be the breaking
point. How am / going to meet the
right girl? ! saw the letter from the

tunfties for meeting the kind of
girls in whom you could become in
terested, right in your own town.
Unless YOU already do so, attend
church, join a young peoples class
and any other organization you can
through which you would be apt to
meet young women. Perhaps you
have friends who could introduce
you to someone or you can go away
for little visit. An eligible man
seldom has much difficulty in meet
ing girls. On the other hand. he is
usually in demand. 1t is twice as
easy for a man to find a mate as
for a girl.
l would be glad to put you in
touch with the girls you mention if
| could, but that is contrary to the
rules of the column, which does not
exist for the purpose Of arranging
matrimonial ventures.
| am sorry for your unhappiness
and trust you will find the person
for whom you are looking before

it may, and very likely will, take
little time. Remember that YOU
don't want to make a mistake.
hope to hear some day that you have
found the right one.
My dear Miss White: am Is

81. He never introduces me to his

and | am very anxious to meet then

DO YOUR EYEBROWS MEET?
If your eyebrows meet you are
greatly handicapped as they give you
a sinister appearance. The thing TO
do is to have the connecting ones re-

them yourself.
Use tweezers, and Jerk quickly one

one sitting, but take several days if
necessary Rub cold cream on the
brow after removing to prevent sore
ness.
The skin chaps because there is
deficiency of fat which the skin it
self fails to supply. Fat glands are

capitalism, or preparing the attacks

ing. Morgan most typically repre-
sents finance capital, the small group
of powerful bankers who are closely
intertWined and rule under the mask
of the Hoover government.
The present world economic crisis
is bringing about a more solid merger
of the leading group of bankers and
the capitalist state. This movement
was already expressed in the role of
Andrew Mellon, one Of the leading
imperialists in the country, banker
industrialist in the Harding Coolidge
Hoover government, as well as the
Appointment of the Morgan partner,
Morrow, as ambassador to Mexico
But this process is now taking on a
headlong pace, laid bare by the Sc
we're crisis with Morgan himself per-
sonally supervising the international
war preparations conferences.
While ex-ambassador Gerard, in a
lax moment declared that SO rich
bankers and industrialists are the real
rulers of the country, he told only
part of the truth. Among the SO
there is still a smaller group who

are in the most decisive position, and
who because Of their control of the
of the leading and decisive banks and
trusts, become the generals before the
war, laying out the future war al
lianceS and directing the drive
against the workers living standard.
A review of the position of the
House of Morgan will show how de-
cisive the control of this pivotal
group Of bankers is. 1t must be re-
membered there is no sharp division
between the other leading financial
groups and Morgan. The Mellon,
Morgan, Rockefeller, Baker and Har-
riman interests intertwine making a
network covering the entire country,
stretching out its golden bands to
the leading colonies. But the House
of Morgan is the most mobile and
strategically placed force, setting. the
line and expressing most consciously
the drive of the irnperialists to war.
In the last world war the House of
Morgan did the major share of the
financing for the allied powers, max
ing hundreds Of millions out of the
slaughter. In the process of trusti-
fication in American industry, the
Morgan cluster of banks take the
lead.

to introducing martial law through
out the whole country.
Recently a group of proletarian
writer's, Comrades Broniewski, Wat,
Hempel and Stawar were thrown into
prison for having dared to protest in
an open letter against the brutal
torturings of political prisoners. Ac-
cording to the Polish press, these
writer's will be brought before mil

astrophic crisis and a growth of the
revolutionary movement, the govern

years, has again been thrown into
prison. Comrade Lauristin, who is
editor of the Young Communist"
was arrested in 1923 and in 1924 was
condemned to z years hard labor on
a false charge, the only "material
evidence" being a faxed letter alleged
to have been found in the pocket of
a member of the Central Committee
of the Esthonian Communist Party,
Comrade Kreuks, who was murdered
by the secret police. After serving
his prison term, Comrade Lauristin
was altogether only a week at liberty
before being arrested a second time,
on a provocatory charge, again on
the basis of q forged letter The Es-
thonian bourgeoisie is wreaking ven
geance on Comrade Lauristin, who is
known as an uncomprimising fighter
for the revolution.
Only Vigorous and concerted
protest by the worlds writer's can
influence the outcome of the trial,
which has been fixed for a near date.
In Finland, among the hundreds of
political prisoners, there are seven
writer's: Otto Oinonen, Rudolf Parvi-

Ratu Vaarainen, Anti Timonen and

these revolutionary writer's was that
they came out against the prepara-

most ridiculous measures as reme-

nomic and social order be more bank
rupt than capitalism is today?
In socialist economy there is no
contradiction between production and
consumption: for production is no
longer carried on for the sake of
profits but to meet human needs. No
matter how the productive forces
may grow, no matter how production
increases, Soviet Russia has no need
to fear production. How alto
gether absurd is the question which
one continually hears put by the cap
italists: will not Russia, after the
completion of the Five-Year Plan, or
later when the next Five-Year Plan
has been fulfilled, have to suffer from
crises similar to that which capital
ism is at present suffering? The Rus

and answers: Then we shall have

mands; then we shall work only 5

Los ANGELES, Oct. 29.-Such an
angry storm of mass protests has
been aroused here by the brutal at
tacks. Of Mayor Porter's Red Squad
on unemployed workers demonstrat-
ing against starvation and on cleo
ton rallies of the Communist Party,
that the boss press is forced to give
columns Of front page news and edi-
torials to the exposure of the police

erals and Communist workers who
bearded Mayor Porter in his office.
The hearing in the mayors office
has been followed by a fake gesture
Of investigation" by the grand jury
of the police brutality evidence
showed under the reluctant nose of
Mayor Porter. Scores of workers
have appeared before the grand jury
and told of being brutally beaten by
the police and of having their meet
ingS and demonstrations broken up.
One japanese worker told of being
struck from behind and his head cut
open as he stood holding a banner
with the words, Our Children Need
Food.
A young Negro worker told of being
brutally beaten up by police when he
attempted to cross the street to
meeting at Fiftieth and Hooper Ave
nue., where speakers of the Unem-
ployed Council were rallying the
masses to support the fight of the
unemployed for unemployment relief
and social insurance.
Nelson, another worker, told how
plain clothes men broke into his
home without a warrant, and, when
he protested, beat him and ripped
the clothes off his back in the pres
ence of his two children.
Marx and Logan, both San Pedro
longshoremen, gave accounts of frac-
tured ribs and painful bruises in
ficted by the cossack cops
Meyer BALM, local manager for
the campaign for the repeal of the
