Priestley Gave
Goblet His Chance

When he reached New
York he was given an up
roanous welcome by the
liberals. Had he landed in
Boston the dignitaries Of the
Essex Junto would have
demonstrated their intel
lectuality and aristocracy by
snubbing him.
But in New York he was
welcomed. The Democratic
Societies that have been so
persistently lied about by
reactionary historians even
to this day, and Tammany
Hall, presented him with ad-
dresses to which he replied.
This gave an opportunity
to William Cobbett, one of
the most unscrupulous tools
of reaction in America, al
belt an Englishman. He
wrote a savage pamphlet de-
nouncing Priestley, and
Democratic Societies, and
the Irish, and the French,
and glorifying the England
Of Pitt-not that of Fox.
That made the fortune Of
Cobbett in America the
Federalists took him under
their wing, and soon he was
editing a party paper which
in scurrility and falsehood
was an easy match for the
rawlings of Calender. 1t was
he who, on trying to work
up a Federalist war against
France in '98, set a mark
Tor war propaganda resting
on deliberate falsehoods.
People reading his paper
read that the French with
red caps on their heads had
landed in South Carolina
and were marching through
the countryside burning
houses, raping women and
kidnapping children.

At first I believed it was
merely a continuance Of the
English persecution. But I
observe that on the demise

dishes against you are as
high seasoned as Porcu-
pines were. You have
sinned against the Church
(the Established Church)
and King, and can therefore
never be forgiven.
On the two hundredth an
niversary of Priestley's
death it is we'll to recall the
persecution of the liberal in
America just before the
great democratic revolution
of 1900 put an end to the
lynching of liberty and the
rights of the masses. Such
incidents help us to under
stand American history.
Child Labor

tive" to call it "child la
bor," but it means the same
thing. He announces that
ten States have ratified.
There is something rather
disturbing in the tardiness
with which States act on
this amendment. Not one
has been submitted to the
people in two generations
which should make such an
appeal to humane men and
women. It has now been al
most a quarter Of a century
since Beveridge began
fight to purge the indus
trial life Of the nation Of
this impurity. The four-day
speech, backed with affi-
davits, he made in opening
the battle is unequaled as
humanitarian document in
the history Of the Senate.
Because it could not be an
swered, it has been ignored
and neglected. The easiest
and cleverest way for the
forces Of evil to meet the
truth when it interferes
with profit is to lift the
eyebrows.
The only reason. for the
tardiness Of legislatures in
acting on this amendment
is that selfish forces, now
profiting on the sweat of
childhood, are against it.
But at time when millions
of heads of families are in
the street, common sense
might we'll find something
to think about in child

 New Feature
 { In Alaska, where closed-in cars are almost essential, the Fisher no-draft ventilators will be es- pecially appreciated by motorists, MT. Connors believes. They are of safety plate glass, built into the front and rear windows, and con- trolled by Ternstedt regulators. This new feature makes possible any amout Of ventilation, without unhealthy drafts.
