etc, and the whole question Of approach to the
Negro workers All this has been so seriously
neglected that We have in this 2 weeks re-
cruited only s Negro workers. Then the fact
that we have only IS native born. It IS quite
true that some OF the others are American citi-
zens, but still it shows that while we talk of
reaching the American workers we have not yet
overcome this serious situation. Then we have
only 10 women, most Of them housewives This
is serious shortconing in connection with the
work among women because It shows we have
not orientated toward the factories as far as
women workers are concerned 4
You have received our plan which insofar as
it distinguishes itself from past plans in that
we do not give the comrades definite figures, we
ask them to discuss it and on the basis of their
strength in the fraction and union, to decide on
a figure. We held section functionary meetings
to discuss this and held District flnctionary
meetings. Last week the unit meeting took up
the question Of recruiting and on the basis Of
their discussion we are getting the quotas for
the recruiting drive. Also special fraction meet
ings are taking place this week where we have
a district representative take UP with the frac-
ton the problem of recruiting
through the fraction for the Party and building
of the union.

IN the recruiting campaign that the Party is
carrying on at the present time, it has become
necessary, especially in this period OF sharpened
struggles, to draw into our ranks new proletar-
ian elements, workers who may not have a
theoretical background, but who are ready to
come into the ranks OF our Party on the basis
Of daily struggles around the concrete issues
confronting them in their particular factories
1t this time This becomes necessary, especially
IN view OF the fact that in the registration of
the Farty and the funetionaries meetings that
we have held in the last few months. we see
That in many cases our section and unit func-
tionaries are not workers who have been hit by
tine crisis very hard and do not fully under
stand the tasks facing our Party at this present
period- We have q situation where leading
comrades in the sections do not consider one a
district representative if he is Gust" a worker,
and one who does not possess q knowledge of

may have clear understanding Of the line

SOME TENDENCIES OF OPPORTUNISM WHICH MUST
BE FOUGHT AGAINST ~r4

in the abstract does not mean e thing Tor us.
We must have these theories concretized around
the daily needs of the workers for only when
theory becomes clear to the workers around their
daily issue can we hope to carry on the real
struggles of the workers. Such tendency on the
part Of functionaries must be fought against by
the Party as sharply as possible for this ten
dency binders the Party in bringing forward
and developing new proletaran forces as the
leaders OF our Party and the struggles which
it carries on. 81
1t is clear that when a new worker comes
into our Party as a result of struggles he has
read very little, and has not got glib tongue
He is sometimes lost among some of these COM
rades who talk much, and in reality say and do
very little.
In this Recruiting Campaign, we must bring
in real proletarian elements, especially from the
basic industries in this district, marine, metal
transport ETC.. and bring these proletarian eIe-
ments not only into the ranks of the Party, but
draw them into activities and develop them as
quickly as possible and in many cases, where
necessary, change with the help of these new
forces the functionaries in some of our sections
and units. In that way we can really proletar-
ianize the ranks of our Party and develop new
forces in the leadership. If we do not take this
step and fight against these tendencies OF OPP
portunisln, we will not be able to enrich our
Party will the experiences Of these workers
who are joining our ranks at the present time.

On Matters Of Decorul-l

Some time ago we mentioned that some Pare
ty comrades in a workers club had insisted on
''evicting" a group of Young Pioneers who had
been given the use of the club rooms for their
meetings. We dwelt especially on the report
that Party member, who was an official in the
club said he would refuse to carry out a frac
ton decision, if it made one, against it. Which
was wrong on his part of course
But there's another angle to the whole ques
ton. And that is, we are, told THE comrades
objected to the activities of the Pioneer group
in breaking chairs defacing walls tearing down
vail paper. etc" And we must say that when
Pioneers. act that wey; well. they can expect
to be chased out
But the young comrades are not alone in this
vandalism tendency We all know how COM
rades come to mass meetings to chew the iat
with each other and fill the air with smoke and
noise to- the disgust CT noll-p party workers who
attend to lear the speakers.
That is just one form OF hooliganisn But
from the jewish Bureau we get another sraigflt
out example, which the Bureau speaks o. as
follows;
'tOur Middle Bren1 Club had given perlills~
sion to the Unemployed Council to use the club
rooms rs it's headquarters. We gre informed that
the greatest pastnle of the unemployed com.
rades i'll, the club rooms is throwing cups at
chosen spots in the ceiling or splashing coffee
all over the tables cutting up wall papers, etc.
The result is that the club rooms have taken
on the appearance of a corner saloon and mem
bers are running away by the dozen. II this
keeps up, the club will be out OF existence In 3,
few weeks. We cannot afford to build UP mass
organizations and have them ruined by vandal-
ism in this fashion"
Which is quite true as to the moral drawn
1t seems that there is need for some straight
talk on proietraian discipline and conlradely
behavior which might be taken up With henefix

By Logan Clendening, M. D.

small tank is filled with oxygen
and through a mouth piece the
patient breathes in and out of
this. The nose is stopped up
so no breathing except into the
tank will go on. When the oxy
gen in the tank is exhausted
and the time thus required is
computed, the oxygen consump-
ton per minute is known.
The amount of oxygen a per-
son should consume is deter.
mined by the size Of the body
weight and especially body sur
face. The physician doing the
basal metaboliSm test has a
table of these amounts for peo-
pie of all weights, etc., showing
what each individual should
consume. When the test is
completed the real figures are
compared to the normal ones.
If a patient persistently con-
sumes more oxygen per minute
than normal, it is considered to
be due to an increase in the
secretion of the thyroid gland.
On the contrary, # the oXy-
gen consumption is low, it is
an indication that not enough
thyroid secretion is being pro-
duced.
The Washington times., 1932-03-14

In the large correspondence
addressed to this department
there have been many requests
lately ior information about
goiter. The articles this week
will represent an acknowledg-
ment of those requests.
Goiter is enlargement Of the
thyroid gland. The thyroid
gland is situated at the base
of the Aeck, partially encircling
the windpipe.
There are as many kinds OF
goiter as there are candidates
for president and they are far
more diverse. the one from the
other. 7; is not possible to
understand them unless you
have some preliminary knowl-
edge of the anatomy and phSi-
ology of the thyroid gland.
While the thyroid is a true
gland with numerous gland
crypts and secreting a sub
stance called "colloid." which
can be seen in the center Of
these crypts when the gland is
removed and put under the mi
croscope, it does not pour this
secretion into any definite body
cavity. The salivary glands
pour their secretion into the
mouth, where they are used
for digestive purposes. The
mucous glands Of the trachea
pour their secretion into it's
cavity, where we know they are
used to engulf dust and germs
so these can be removed. But
what does the secretion Ct a
gland, which apparently goes
nowhere, do?
It took a long time to find
out. The secretion is evidently
absorbed into the blood stream.
BY feeding people extra thy
roid secretion it was found this
increased the body heat, re-
duced weight, and made the
pulse more rapid. This was
corroborated when people
from whom the gland had been
removed were studied: thy were
found to produce less body heat
to gain weight and to have q
slow pulse.
The first conclusion, then,
about the usefulness he thy
roid gland was that it regulated
the general rate Of all body
cells used up oxygen, at which
tissues are torn down and built
up, etc. In technical terms this
is called the basal metabolism.
Most patierts who have been
suspected of thyroid disease are
acquainted with the test known
as the basal metaboliSm test.
The object of this is to deter
mine how much oxygen the
patient uses up per minute. A

The solid-color-and-print fash
ion Is certainly expressing itself
with a vengeance in the new
jackeA dresses. Prints are tax.
ing to the top part Of the dress
and in accents here and
there-while the skirt and
jacket adhere to solid colors.
These colors are dark and set
off the CHEEKY prints most ef-
fectively.
Stay in Sight
And the jackets don't by
any means conceal the prints!
They don't even meet in front,
as a rule. Sometimes their
sleeves are shorter, leaving the
lower part to the print of the
dress underneath. And when
these jackets-which are mostly
bolero types-don't reach to the
waist, they're liable to let some
print show. And when there's
a printed collar, it's worn out
side-Quite often there's a sash
or belt of it, too. And fur
thermore. jackets are Of e n
lined with print, though that
doesn't show very much unless
it folds over in revers in front
or something of the kind. But
it makes a nice ensemble that
way. Nice for Easter Sunday,
too.
Stars and Checks
There's something quite nauti-
cal about the center dress.
Maybe it's the cunning star
shaped nickel buttons that trim
the cuffs and seemingly hold up
the little built-up panel of the
skirt in front. Or maybe it's
the widely flared collar and tie
that are quite suggestive of the
kind sailors wear.
At any rate, it's a very saucy
little costume and the print this
time is a check! And as you
see, the sash is checked, too
it ties in a nice flat knot. There
are double inverted pleats In the
skirt. And have you noticed,
incidentally, how many of the
new spring clothes are made
with pleats? Canton crepe is
the fabric and again the price
is under $40. It's especially
smart in black, with black and
white checks or navy with red
and white. And by the way,
watch how checks are coming
to the fore in Fashion!
Dots Inside and Out
The girl sitting down looks as
if she were waiting for some
beau to come along and admire
her new dress! He'd be sure
to, and so would everyone who
sees it. For isn't it as trim and
smart as anything you've seen?
If you wear this dress and
sit with your chin in your hand
