D THE TOILERS OF ALL COUNTRIES

THE war in China is still going on. after the
L bloodbath in Shanghai, after the destruction
and devastation Of the working-class town OF
Chapel after the bloody and cruel violation OF
Manchuria the Japanese troops are advancing
against the frontiers OF the Soviet Union. New
divisions are being landed daily in Manchuria,
in Central and North China, gigantic army is
being gathered together for the attack on Saglet
China and the Soviet Union.
War Is raging, although there has been no formal
declaration of war. The armament undertakings
in Europe are experiencing a boom Wagon
loads of munitions are being conveyed by the
railways Hundreds of ships loaded with ex-
plosve material and poison gases for japanese
imperialism against China and the Soviet Union
are leaving the big ports of Hamburg, Rotter-
dam, Antwerp, Ndarseilles, Dunkirk, London and
Mamo.
Japan's chief European ally, French imperial
ism, is organizing, financing and feverishly ex-
tending the Western war front against the
Soviet Unon.
The attempts Of the National Government of
Baldwin and Macdonald TO restore the Anglo
japanese alliance, the attempts Of French inn
perialism to come to an agreement with the
Italy Of Nussolini, the plan for a Danube Fed
Grafton, mean an attempt to create platform
of understanding for the war Of intervention
against the Soviet Union, for the final and firm
inclusion Of Germany in the anti-SoWet front.

League of Nations palace, peace idyls are staged;

in Shanghai, Japanese robber imperialism is
conducting peace negotiations. The imperialst
robbers and their social-fascist agents are juggl
ing with the lying paragraphs of the League Of
Nations statute in order to prevent the toiling
masses of Europe and America from taking up
the fight against the fury Of war which has been
unclaimed in China.
PrOletarians of Europe and America! You
must realize that your blood and lives are in
volved in the events in China. The Chinese
workers, peasants and petty bourgeoisie are today
subjected to the scourge Of war. The mouths
of the guns of japanese imperialism and its Eu-
ropean allies are already directed against the
Soviet Union.
The danger of a new imperialist world war
for the redivision of the world was never great
and immediate as at the present time.
The competition with peaceful means between
the world of capitalism and the world Of vic
torious Socialism has been decided already in
favor Of Socialism by the magnificent successes
Of the Five Year Plan. 1t is precisely this cir
cunstance that induces world Imperialism, which
is more and more shaken to its foundations by
the Investigations of the class struggle and the
national revolutionary movements In the colonies
and dependent countries on the one side and
the sharpening of the inner irnperialist anita
goniSrns on the other side TO seek way out

ism by means of arms.

IN connection with the survey I am making for
the Forum Magazine of industrial conditions
in the East and the Middle West, interviewed
Pittsburgh's famous Father Cox last week in his
office at the Rectory. The reverend father re-
ceived me cordially. He has full-blooded jowl
and wears long silk casSock which falls amply
over psunch that would do no dishonor to
Bishop.
He gave me his solution Of the unemployment
problems" 1t is this: two billion dollar sum
to be raised by inheritance and income taxes
and to be expended on iob-rnaking public works
program With great enthusiasm he spoke Of
Cox's convention Of the unemployed which he
proposes TO hold next August to nominate the
unemployed party's candidate for the Presidency.

tion," he shouted.

Father Cox" Grants an Interview

Pittsburgh tomorrow if I wanted! could take
over the city Of Pittsburgh" he said loudly, "if
I wanted to. "He studied my face. do you
know what keeps the working1nen Of America
from Revolution?"
What is it," I asked, what Keeps them?"
eft is people like ourselves" he answered,
talking about God and the flag. Talking about
the constitution the church and the flag-that
is all that keeps them!"
I had heard this theory OF the basic aims OF
the Cox movement expressed by Communist OPP
ponents before. But no one Of his Red critics had
been able to put the matters clearly as the
Father himself.
He attacked big businessmen vehemently, and
spoke of the need for more equitable distribu-
ton of wealth. But he recognized that they
were or should be his allies. Speaking Of the
propertied classes he said
even these people-wh0 are not In SYM
pathy with our aims ought be grateful to
They should support who hold the trust of
the wOrkingman-because only thrOuph us and
persons like us can they retain even part
of their properties"
After the interview visited Cox's "Shanty-
town" situated few yards from the church on
a vacant lot Here about hundred wretched
men are living in shantieS and eating at Father
Coxs soup kitchen. On every shanty there is
a printed sign, which says: God Bless Our
Homes" BY inquiry discovered that few weeks
ago, eleven residents OF Shanty-town who had
grown impatient with the church and the flag
and Joined the Communist Party, had been
turned over to the police. After they had
served their sentences, they were given orders to
keep them out of their homes" in Shanty town.

(The Daily Worker publishes the following
interview with Father Cox because Of the
light il throws on the aims Of the activity of
tho Pittsburgh "hoIy" demagOsue. This in
terview by the Forum writer is striking
confirmation Of the claims made repeatedly
by the Daily Worker that Cox is not concerned
with the welfare Of the unemployed, but aims
primarily to prevent the unemployed workers
from taking up q real struggle for relief and
unemployment insurance mt the expense of the
bosses and their overnment.-Editor.)

Powerful Mr. Chigger

Some call them chiggers and 9TH
ers call them jiggers-by either
name they itch the same. With the
blackberry season fiourishing, irri-
tating red spots on the epidermis
are at the seasons high. Here is a
lesson in chiggerology by T. III.
Parks, entomologist, College of Ag-
riculture, Ohio State University.
The chigger is not an insect and it
is not the tiny animated cork-screw
it is often pictured in cartoons, he
says. ''It is what is known as
mite a group of tiny animals close
ly related to spiders and ticks" The
chigger is bright orange and about
1-150 of an inch in diameter which
makes it invisible to the naked eye.
When it attacks man it is in the
nymphal stage of it's development.
Later on it grows fourth pair Of
legs and becomes an adult. Nor
mally they live on land turtles,
snakes or rabbits. They run rapid
ly and may swarm over a person
walking through the underbrush,
III ulo IL I'LL tiiCy oCt-
tie down to dinner When the
chigger becomes hungry he usually
finds a hair follicle or pore in the
skin and inserts his mouthparts,
hooking his forelegs into the skin.
Contrary to common belief he does
not go under the skin, Park says.
A poison generated by the chigger
causes the severe itching. They gen.
orally settle most thickly where the
clothes are tight.
Flour of sulphur busted into the
clothing will prevent chiggers and
is recommended by Park for anyone
who intends to come in contact with
high grass or underbrush. After
itching sets in there is little that
can be done except avoid scratching
which is likely to cause infection.
Cooling lotions of salicylic acid with
a little oil may be applied for COM
fort. Chiggers may be eradicated
from lawns by dragging them with
kerosene covered rag, but it is a
delicate adjustment to apply enough
kerosene to kill the chiggers and
still not sufficient to kill the grass.

Annual Meeting Church of Christ
Seventh Street

Last Sunday would appear as an
important day in the religious life
of McConnelsville, and especially OF
the congregation of the Church Of
Christ at Seventh Street. Evangel-
istic services had preceded Sunday
all-day meeting for three evenings
having been conducted by Frank
Hazen and Tom Butterfeld of Zanes-
vile and by the local evangelist J..
w. Gallagher.
The annual all-day meeting Of
Sunday included representation
from forty or more congregations of
southeastern Ohio and from Colum-
bus, Portsmouth and Steubenville,
Ohio with some representation from
West Virginia and Indiana Among
the many visitors were some twenty
preachers.
The program of the Sunday all
day meeting included three services
in the morning, afternoon and even
ing; large number of local MEM
bers and visitors participated in a
OdohSI ulullcl DIT w dLCI w OIhS pdIh
near the Muskingum river at the
edge of town.
AT the morning session the Lords
Supper was celebrated as usual and
followed preaching by the local
evangelist J. w. Gallagher; the
afternoon services were presided
over by the local elder and evangel-
ist G.. III. NORM and consisted of
several ten minute talks by visiting
preachers and members from Ma
rietta, Woodsfield, Ashland and 9TH
er points, this service also including
some specially requested songs by a
group Of visitors from Marietta, Dali
zell and Wingett Run congregations
led by w. H. Howell of Lower Salem

lion, encamped around Mt. Sinat
while Moses tarried on the noun
tain where he met God and received
from Him practical program OF
worship SO fundamental that it is a
working basis for all associations OF
men.
VS.. 1, 2, 8. "And God spake all
these words saying, l am Jehovah
thy God, who brought thee out OF
Egypt, out of the house of bondage
Thou shalt have no other gods be-
fore me-" The fact of God and
only one God is fundamental. There
is not room in the human heart Or
in all the universe for two Gods
Two Gods would mean a divided and
disrupted world. In the nature OF
things there can not be two supreme
powers, for they would contend fol-
the mastery and one would in
evitably subordinate the other and
so there can be only one absolute
sovereignty.
v. a. "Thou shalt not make unto
thee any craven image, or any
likeness Of any thing that is heave,
above, or that is in the earth be-
meath, or that is in the water under
the EARTH" Craven images are for
hidden because they hide the spirit
uality and materialize and degrade
the character of God. When God is
represented by a material image OF
man or an animal, the character
of the man or animal is attributed
to him, and he is likely lowered to
the level of the image and clothed
passions and vices.
V. s. "Thou shalt not bow down
thyself to them nor serve them .
Idolatry, logically and inevitably
drags men down, and it has been
attended with unspeakable pollu-
ton. 1t is God alone who has the
right to undivided devotion of the
creature. Moral and religious ten
denotes may be inherited so that
our relations and devotions to God
will make it easy or hard for our
offspring to be religious; it is thus
provided that God may "show low
ing kindness to thousands Of them
that love, and keep my command
mentS."
V. 7. 'Thou shalt not take the
name of Jehovah thy God in vain,
For Tnhorah hol =; ~,
guiltless that taketh his name in
vain" The third commandment
forbids irreverence; reverence is a
step up and irreverence is a step
down; fine reverence for things
high and holy is the delicate bloom
on character that gives beauty TO
all virtues. The man that profanely
swears not only exposes his own
meagerness and impotence of ex-
preston, but he thereby declares
that he holds nothing sacred and
he makes all things cheap and vile.
v. 8. Remember the sabbath
day to keep it holy" Sabbath
keeping requires remembering, PLAN
ming. Much or our sabbath Is
spoiled because we have not plan
ned for it the day before, getting
our work out of the way and making
our spirits ready for it. There
ought to be genuine spiritual use
of this day as holy time, time to be
used in holy way, to the special
worship of God and to our growth
in holiness.
VS.. 9, 10. "SiX days shalt thou
labor and do all thy work; but the
seventh is a sabbath unto Jehovah
thy God" Work and worship are
two fundamental necessities of life,
and the fourth commandment pro-
vides for both. Labor is a religious

Muskingum Valley Camp Meeting AT
Dodge Park, Beverly

The 1892 Muskingum Valley
camp meeting sponsored by the
DISQUALIFICATION community, will
be held Aug. 1921, covering two
Sundays, in Dodge park, Beverly
20 miles northwest of Marietta, on
state route 81.
Special workers for this year are
Rev. Charles Hill, of Columbus
Rev. E. w. Cole, of Coolville, evan
gelists; Rev. and Mrs. L. A. Har-
vey, North Carolina, leaders in
song; Mrs HILL children's meeting
and book stand-religious and holi-
ness books and literature available.
The call to the community is to
let harmony, fellowship, hospitality
and Christian love prevail, with an
invitation to make this time vaca-
ton and pitch your tent in Beulah
Land. Song books containing soul
stirring old and new songs will be
used. Conditions for comfort and
undisturbed worship are ideal
abundance of shade, fresh, pure
water, electric lights, quiet, orderly
surroundings. The doctrine to be
expounded is stated by it's sponsors
thus: ''The earnest, conscientious
aim will be to preach, teach sing,
practice and offer as a remedy for
sin and it's consequences pure,
sound orthodox holiness of the type
approved by the National Holiness
association, free from error, Wild
fire and fanaticism. Both in at
tendance and means of support this
meeting is undenominational in ma
ture and is community supported.
The plan is no gate or registration
fees, and free-will offerings. "Holi-
ness Unto the Lord" is the motto.
Personal benefit from this "sacra-
mental meeting will be in exact
proportion to the support given 1T
and participation in it, by the indi-
vidual. The result of the individual
uplift will be felt in the neighbor-
hood, but for full results the COM
munity as a whole should attend,
partaking freely of the spiritual
benefits offered.
Dr. Hill conducted evangelistic
meeting for Lowell M. e. church,
at Lowell, and for the Lowell and
Beverly congregations, at the Bev-
erly church last year, and won an
earnest following. We predict that
record crowds will give him a hear
ing at the Beverly evangelistic
camp.-XX.

of the meetings was the inspiring
service of Sunday evening, when a
strong sermon on the subject zone

Bankes of Cambridge and young
lady was received into the congrega
ton through her confession and

The large auditorium of the
church was filled to capacity at all
the Sunday services and a common
remark to be heard from those in
attendance was in substance ''This
has been a day of religious inspira-
ton. Xxx.

work is worse than an infidel. But
life must not be all labor, for there
are higher necessities.
V. IL. For in six days Jehovah
made heaven and earth, the sea and
all that in them is, and rested the
seventh day. wherefore Jehovah
blessed the sabbath day and hal
lowed it, If God felt the need OF
rest, so surely do his creatures.
