THO me the strangest phenomenon
i in American politics is the
Communist party and the tactics Of
that organization.
In the first place, the party pro-
fesses to believe that political ma
chinery is wholly inadequate for it's
purposes. Day after day and week
after week the spokesman Of the
movement assure their followers
that voting is fruitless pastime
and that the almost perfect state
can be achieved only by armed
revolution, dictatorship, and per-
iod of terror for I'll dissenters.
Yet at the moment William z.
Foster and James Ford are making
an intensive drive and asking their
audiences to smash capitalism by
marking their crosses under the
hammer and the sickle.
Communists tend to be little
optimistic always in regard to the
present strength of their followers.
Wherever five or ten are gathered
together, the Daily Worker always
can see a thousand.
And yet I see no reason to doubt
that the vote of 1882 will vastly
exceed 1928, when the national
ticket of the party polled slightly
less than $4,000.

IN Yer-Stimson doctrine of non
recognition as a deterrent to war
is obviously in the right direction.
No one can quarrel with the purpose
it seeks, or the principle on which
it rests.
A wonderful thing, indeed, if
peace could be assured, even to a
limited extent, by the mere mobil-
ization of public sentiment. What
happy world this would be if the
problem presented no greater diff
Guilty, if we could rely on the posi-
bility that great governments would
yield to such influence.
But look at Japan, look at Russia,
look at Manchuria.
We have refused to recognize
Russia, and the only effect has been
loss of trade. We needed RusSia's
help to curb Japan, but our rela-
items with her barred it.
Manchuria has been severed from
China by force, in spite of the fact
that we threatened not to recognize
the severance if brought about in
that way.

Perhaps an Afterthought

! liiOOSlll
A STRAIGHT bonus payment is
L n not even mentioned in the
Communist platform, although it
has figured in many speeches since.
In so far as the party remains
faithful to the logic of its econo-
mic philosophy, even now the bo-
nus is only part of a general
program of unemployment relief.
1 am not quarreling with this. I
don't see how any radical honestly
can argue otherwise.
But the bonus army itself was
from the beginning almost straight
bonus and nothing else. General
Glassford has been rebuked by the
President because he was too leni-
ent. The general tried hard to kid
the men along and avoid trouble.
He gave no aid and comfort to the
red-menace talk.
Finally the riot came. Naturally,
the Communists wanted a clash.
From their point of view, that
would be an obvious advantage
But the riot was not of their max
ing. They were chagrined to have
been so palpably left out Of the
whole affair.
To their intense delight the sound
Of hoofbeats was heard in the dis
lance. Up rode President Hoover
and presented them with the whole
commotion. And they were no fools.
They accepted it eagerly.
AS a rule, Communists are not
grateful for favors bestowed upon
them by outsiders, Tut for the mo-
ment they have made a return in
kind.
The campaign of Mr.. Foster and
Mr.. Ford very seldom takes up the
iniquities Of the Republican Presi-
dent. Seemingly their chief fight
is not with them, but almost wholly
against the Socialists, the Socialist
Laborite, the remnants of the I. w.
w. and the anarchist groups. Even
a revolutionist is not inclined to
look a gift horse in the teeth.

A CHANGE FOR THE LAME DUCK"
 CONGRESS TO HELP.

If the Lame Duck" Congress wants to do some really constructive work toward budget balancing and making way for depression recovery it will without delay submit Constitutional amendment providing for the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment without complicated restrictions or details, leaving control of the whole liquor question to the separate States and it will immediately modify the Volstead Act to provide for the legal manufacture and sale of light wines and beer. This matter has been thoroughly debated The Democratic National platform has been overwhelmingly endorsed by the American voters It ought to be accepted as a guide. The voters have settled the matter Their representatives should act at once.
 The quicker this matter is cleared up the greater will be its effect in doing away with the depression The modification of the Volstead Act with a tax on beer and wines, would provide few hundreds of millions of revenues that would assist immensely in balancing the budget
 There is no good why both Of these propositions could not be put through in Decem- ber That would enable State Legislatures to act during the coming winter the repeal and provide a potential income that budget baancers could take into account at Congress could do more ln this way to create feeling of optimism than by any one thing that it could do.

 While the spokesmen of both parties keep on quarreling in their eleventh hours about this or that phase of our National fnances,-includng the question whether the gold standard ever was in real danger-the Treasury bookkeeping continues to record prosacaly the results of what official stewards have done and still doing. It all makes none too cheerful readng-for the taxpayer.
 The account for the four months of the fiscal year to October 31 shows partial progress in that the spendings for that period reduced S193- 100000 from year before; and as the receipts meanwhile fell off s148O000Oo, the net improvement compared with year earlier is about $45, GOO 900. In other words, a four months deficit has shrunk slightly from roughly $675000OO0 a year ago to S630, 100000 for third of year.
 These figures suggest plainly enough how far our budget balancing is still very much unfinished business with the deficit continuing to roll along toward what may we'll prove billion or more for full fiscal year For it is evident enough that the tax returns, from inadequate job are still dis appointing, while the economy tax has also yet to be applied adequately.
 Those disappointing tax collections were ex- pected to yield $1OO0O0000 month, $4o0 OO0 900 for the four months; instead they neted but $247- 100000, though they did get up to $780O0OOO by October From the Nations eaner earnings the income tax return for four months was naturally imports likewise explain customs revenue shrunk almost s50,000,000 to $93,000,0o0 for four months Similar reasons explain Panama Canal tolls drop from eight to six millions
 When Uncle Sam could not collect taxes fast enough, he had to borrow more; and even though it was at very low rates lately, the inevitable sequence is the further szeable growth in the public debt We had boasted it's steady reduction from the afterwar peak of S26 GOO 900 in August l9l9 to the later low of S15,773 100000 at the end of 1880. Now the pendulum is steadily swinging the other way
 At the beginning of this month the debt stood lat $20812000,000 Here is an increase of no less than $3521 100000 in 12 months past of S1 326 O00 900 since July l; of $745,000ooo since September l. Expenditures and credit relief burdens as against the shrunken tax yields, have caused that swift debt expansion.
