MOTHER DIFFERS WITH HOSPITAL
 OVER HER BABY
She Claims Boy Was Born to Her-Hospital Says
 It Was Girl

New York, Nov. 12-UP)-Mrs Gennaro Pisacano today appealed to Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia, the police department. the fire de- partment, or anyone else who would make good Solomon.
 Oct. 31, she said, she gave birth to boy in a Manhattan hos pital. The hospital has given her a girl which she doesn't want.
 Soon after her ordeal, she said the doctor told her:
 Congratulations, Mrs Pisacano. That's fine boy"
 The next day a nurse brought the babe to her bed and Mrs Pisa cano said she remembered her saying:-
 That's a beautiful baby boy you have, Mrs Pisacano."
 Mrs Pisacano took her baby, noticing a bead necklace around its neck tagged with the family name and the initial M (male). She unwrapped the infant to ad- mire it, then screamed. It was no boy.
 Yesterday, after hours and hours of debate with hospital authori- ties, Mrs Pisacano and her hus- band, a. worker on relief, angrily left for home. A half hour later hospital nurse came panting up the stairs of their tenement with the baby girl, thrust her into Mrs Pisacano's arms, and fled.
 The hospital said that regardless of Mrs Pisacano's memory of what the doctor and nurse said, she had her own baby, a girl. A careless nurse had put an "M" tag instead of a IF" tag around it's neck, but that meant nothing, they said.
 The Pisacanos have five other children all blue- eyed blondes like their father. Mrs Pisacano is brunette. The baby still is too young for family characteristics to be discerned.

Dickson City. Pa,
Dear Editor:
As q new member of the Com
munist Party, want enlightenment
on the following question: Can a
religious person be a Communist?
I asked this question Of a section
organizer and he told me yes, if
he will carry the Party line in every
respect, then he can go to church
every Sunday and still be a Party
member"
Please answer this question.
Yours for Communism.
T. B.
Editorial Note: In answer to your
letter on the Communist stand on
religion. We would first recommend
that you read "Lenin on Religion, 8"
a pamphlet which costs 20 cents.
The Communist Party is COM
mitted by its very principles to a
rejection of the teachings Of all reli-
gions. Marx summarized this in his
famous phrase Religion is the
opium Of the People" Scientific
Socialism, based on dialectical ma
terialism cannot do otherwise.
The Party does not bar from
membership in its ranks proletarians
and poor farmers who are church
goers. We frankly state that our
philosophy is anti-religious but do
not force this position on the work
ing class. 1t is in the course of
Communist activity and study. that
workers grow out of their religious
beliefs. In a Socialist society. anti
religious teaching, combined with
material improvement of the people.
destroys the basis for the continual
ton of religion and its reactionary
hold on the people.
Religion is the most firmly rooted
of all teachings and cannot be up
rooted merely by talk. Millions of
workers will fight with us on the

50 HOLTON-ARMS
DIPLOMAS GIVEN
33rd Annual Exercises Ad-
dressed by Founder and
Principal of School.

Diplomas were presented to 30 stu
dents of Holton-Arms School at the
thirty-third annual commencement
exercises last week. The graduation
exercises followed a meeting of the
alumnae in the Playshop.
Mrs. Jessie Moon Holton, founder
and principal of the school, made the
graduation address and reviewed the
results of a QUESTIONABLE submitted
to members of the alumnae. The
alumnae, almost without exception,
defended the morals of the modern
young woman, and contended the
girl of today is no more sophisticated
than was her Victorian sister.
Those answering suggested that
courses of study be made more practi
cal; that parents should make their
homes more attractive to their chill
dren; that SelfishnesS of nations and
individuals is the greatest social men
ace. and that mothers should attempt
to bridge the gulf between themselves
and their daughters.
Church Membership.
The statistics collected revealed that
three-fourthS of the alumnae and
two-thirdS of the graduating class
are church members. Mrs. Holton
said about one-half of the church
members attend with some regularity,
and that 40 per cent of the alumnae
and 20 per cent of the graduating
class believe the church still is a po-
tent influence.

PARKING BAN HIT
BY MANOR PARK
Citizens Association Fears
Hardship to Thousands in
D. c. Proposal.

Disapproval Of the proposed ban on
all night parking in the District was
expressed at a meeting of the Manor
Park Citizens Association last night.
The opinion of the association was
that such a ban would bring great
hardships to thousands of residents.
1t was stated that a recent survey Of
garages showed there are inadequate
facilities for the cars in this city.
1t was also believed that the rent for
garages, in case of abolition for all
night parking, would soar to such
heights that many car owners would
be forced to sell.
There was also motion made by
the association favoring the abolition
of day and night parking on boule-
wards. arterial highways and streets
on which busses and street cars
operate, when such parking would
interfere with the free flow Of traffic.
This would be left to the discretion
Of the Traffic Bureau.

We Still Observe It

We were quite interested in the manner in which Waterbury observed Columbus Day. Time was when this was day Of almost nationwide rejoicing. It was that way with almost every holiday in the oIden, golden times that we recall so proudly today. But if the truth be known, we are still just as much nation 0f eele- orators as we ever were. The spirit IS still rampant. We like to unfurl few flags, sing songs, make speeches, and ID general assume festive appearance,
 Columbus Day is not one that we should leave to our ItaliaprAmerieap friends and neigbbors. All Americans, regardless Of race, should look upon Christopher Co., lunbus as one of those intrepid adyeDy furers who dared much in the spirit of discovery. That he was not seeking tbls fsir land and its shores when he flfst sighted them is really of no importance lg the overwhelming fact that in g day and age in which science and clylllEaflon were 60 far behind those of today he had the confidence and courage to sal oyer uH7 eharted waters,
 Last nights editorial cartoon was z splendid example of this, Why sA9plq this generation fear the fptureY Look aF the resources that are at our eomnana, We have everything to gain by going foFg ward, Certainly the spirit that lmhpeq Columbus and his little band of falthfpl ones needs to be widely promulgated f We were to listen to the femarAs fnat efe hurled at us today on every side.
