audience in the working class. We
would recommend it for required
reading.
After indicating the origin and
development of the small cannery
town of Caldwell first as a Spanish
dominion and then during the
American conquest of California,
the author proceeds to create the
lives of the entire town from one
fiesta through the year to the next.
Their social and class relations
rather than their individual psyches
grant significance to the characters.
A huge panorama absorbs the
reader. The MARKHAM world view
with its class values is revealed
implicit and inevitable in the
images the author has chosen to
portray.
THE one major deficiency In the
book is a fault that Armstrong
shares with every revolutionary
novel published until now. Working
class actions are portrayed as spon-
taneous actions. The Communist
Party and its work and the lives OF
its functionaries are blurred and
vague. We know there is drama in
this life too. The reality the author
seeks to create could only be en-
HANGED If an appreciation for the
organized role Of the working class

whether this fault exists because

Hoffman Niclzerson. New York
Stokes. 81 pages. Price S2,7s
Reviewed by MORRIS PIFMAN
Ths book is part OF the prepare
1 ton for war, and the mobilizs-
ton Of fssoisn. It appears sienifi-
csntly, and under q significant title
at the moment when the mos
gigantic war apparatus is being
built up IN all capitalist countries
under the slogan Of preventing
war"
A billion-dollsr navy program Is
adopted in Washington amid the
whoops Of all the tingoes that It is
the best safeguard of peace" The
Idea Of war, the rousing OF lingo
istic passions, is fomented by Hearst
under the guise Of creating a hatred
Of war through CHASTITY pictures Of
war horrors.
Just as Woodrow Wilson pre-
pared to plunge the American
masses into the bloody storm of
the World War with the slogan
He kept us out Of the war" SO
the inperialists who see war as
their only capitalist way out Of the
crisis are carrying out the mobili-
5ation of minds with horrible
cunning.
War is In the air-even for the
reader of the capitalist press-and
thousands of the middle class are
uneasily asking themselves what
their fate viii be, and what is to be
done.
It is for them that this book Is
entitled, Can We Limit War;"
THE authors thesis runs some
thing like this:
War Is inevitable. Ancient wars
involved few cornbatants, but dem
oeratic wars" involve millions. War,
as q professional concern, is 3 fas-
cinsting science. The next war will
not be so horrible as many predict.
Fascism Though he does not use
the term, will make inevitable war
more limited" and noble pur-
suit Only a universal religion flor
which even the basis does not exist.
as he admits would put an end to
war.
The author Is an active and in
terested militarist. with many mill
tary friends, and he lists four res-
sons why the United States might
put its armies into the field:
l. Civil outbreaks, and in par
ticular the worldwide quarrel be-
tween capitalist and proletarian."
2. Invasion Of Canada or Mexico.
3. Should the existing Commu-
mist crusade gain Roadway in Eu-
rope We might see fit to Join
in an anti-Communist crusade"
q. Armed support Of an agrees
sive foreign trade policy"
In this connection he makes a
highly instructive analysis Of the
National Defense Act, passed in
1921, and shows that it is based on
a plan to mobilize not less than
100000 men, and that the United
States maintains a corps of trained
officers sufficient for an even huger
force.
It might seem that so rsnkly
jingoistic book. wrapped in its thin
cloak of religion, will not impress
anyone who is not already as
vicious a lingo as the author. But
it is surely significant that the
New York Times selected it for the
main article on the first page Of
its book review section, and that
the reviewer handled It as If it we're
a book about peace.
