service.
From June until September of
this year he looked for another job
daily and unsuccessfully He grew
haggard and irritable and although
his mother told him not to worry
he knew the family Of six could
not live on the meager wages which
his father received for working as
an attendant at New York Uni

On Sept. II the youth disap-
peared. The police we're notified
and they began to search for him.
But the family knew he would not
return. He had told his mother
he would not be a burden on the
family for long. He had left his
overcoat at home and his mother
worried about his facing the winter
without it.
One night she dreamed she saw
him shivering in the cold on a
street corner. She began to have
visions about him. The subsequent
developments followed tirne-worn
course. Heartbroken at the loss of
her son, the mother began to all.
Several weeks ago she took to her
bed. She lapsed into a coma a
week later. On Election Night she
regained consciousness temporarily

the following night. The family said
she died of a broken heart, not the
medical diagnosis but the precipi-

such tragedies are to become things

Two Tragedies and a Moral
BY HARRY KERMIT

| WORKING GLASS tragedies are
W daily occurrences in our pres
ent society which DEGREES privation
for the many and plenty for the
few. Most of them are too familiar
for repetition here = the broken
homes and suicides which the work
ing population has come to recog-
nize as it's heritage under capital
ism. Sometimes, however, these
tragedies contain such pointed in
dictments of the mode of life en-
gendered by the profit system that
no workers newspaper can afford
to ignore them.
Two such stories came to light
recently in New York City, both of
them receiving passing mention
when noticed at all by the capitalist
press. One concerned a three
months old baby and the other a
working class mother. The indict-
ments were clear in each case.
The baby starved to death. That
was the diagnosis Of the Home Re-
lief Bureau doctor who attended her
before she died. 1t was also the
diagnosis of the grief stricken for
eign-born parents who we're trying
to feed and clothe their six chill
dren, provide fuel and gas and pay
their rent with the SO week they
received from the relief bureau.
There was no hiding the cause of
death in this instance. Six calls
were made to the baby's home in
two weeks by local hospital am
bulance but the inferno in charge
could not provide the nourishing
food which the infant needed. The
doctor sent down by the Home Re-
lief Bureau the final day merely
suggested tonic indications. So this
baby starved to death several weeks
ago and because group of neigh
bors appealed to the authorities the
city graciously provided the burial
expenses and the relief bureau Of
ficials felt satisfied.
The other story was somewhat more
dramatic. 1t treated of a 23-
year-old youth of solid Catholic
American parentage who lost his
job as runner with Wall street

The National Student Federation,
an organization which used to dis

about going left far enough to in
crease the appeal of its magazine.
This attempt produces a controver-
sial contributors column, and a
combination of articles by Upton
Sinclair, H. N. McCracken, one on
munitions, one on medical eco
Monies, and an editorial on frater-
mites. The articles are sound in
their facts, but proceed gingerly to
no conclusion at all. Obviously, the
N. S. F. A. is up a tree. If it adopts
consistent editorial policy, it has
the resources to bring out good
student magazine. If it spends, say,
one year on fraternities, another
year on deciding how Right is Left
for it, it will still be up tree
indefinitely.

PHYSICS AND SOVIET
AGRICULTURE


A striking example Of the intimate
relation between science and prsc-
teal life in the U. S. S. R. is fur
nished by the important role which
physical research is playing in the
development Of agricultural tech
nique. In a recent article, Acade-
mician A. Joffe, the world famous
physicist and head of the Physico-
! Technical Institute in Leningrad,
discussed the various methods de-
veloped at the Physico-AgronomicaI
branch of the Institute, which are
helping agriculture to produce
larger harvests.
He pointed out that mankind had
long known the Importance of leav-
ing fields falIow for certain periods.
The reason for this was that the
soil lost its original structure after
a succession of harvests, and was
easily scattered as dust. The most
common treatment for restoring the
structure was leaving the land under
grass.
But the Soviet physicists found
that it was possible to bind" the
soil together by using a special kind
Of physical fertilizer" which could
be introduced with the usual chem
ical fertilizers. A by-product Of the
paper mills, viscosine, it utilized for
this purpose. This increases the
period during which it is possible to
cultivate the soil intensively.
Another important factor that
makes for good crops is the reten-
ton of heat by the soil. The
blacker the surface of the soil, the
more heat does it attract. But the
earth itself evaporates this heat,
especially at night. In tackling this
problem, the physicists found that
thin layer of bitumen, when scat
tered over the soil, raised the TEN
perature five or six degrees and
decreased evaporation. This YVES of
great help to the farming districts
in the northern regions. Without
this technique there would not be
sufficient heat for the plants to
thrive.
The scientists also succeeded in
attaining higher temperatures by
perfecting a substitute for glass
which was fragile and expensive to
be used in lighthouses. They made
a transparent film something like
celluloid but with much better
qualities. The film is more trans
parent than glass and transmits the
ultraviolet rays which are so i'm
portant for plant growth. 1t is
ireproof, absorbs very little moisture
and is strong enough to withstand
wind, rain and hail. Yet it is so
light that a dollhouse frame can be
lifted with one hand. When pro-
duced on mass scale it is cheaper
than glass.
Last year this film was tested in
many places and found to be very
successful. 1t would be possible 90
use this film in places where it is
impossible to deliver glass, and it
opens up the possibility Of replacing
glass in houses.
The scientists also studied the
effects of light on plants. Sunlight
is made up of various colored rays,
each of which plays part in the
life of the plant. They therefore
experimental with colors that are
necessary for growth. Through the
use of colored electric bulbs they
were able to gather seven harvests
of wheat and three of tomatoes on
an experimental scale. Since the
consumption Of electric energy is
relatively small it has been found
practical to grow certain vegetables
in cellars and Easements during the
winter.

Leap forth Red Banner, leap in flames Of redl
Leap forth you fiery symbol of our youth
Marx taught us life is change and change is truth
Change is our banner and bear it hight
They tell that the poor always with us;
That sacco and Vanzetti died in vain;
That rich will always war and reap their profits,
The poor to reap the death and debt and pain;
That white was born to rule and black obey
But Marx gave us our banner. Let it fy!I
You cannot go on feeding hunger bullets.
You cannot bayonet cry for bread,
Nor stihe anger with tear gas bomb
Nor murder hate-and if you club and kill us
Our banner flies above cur helpless dead!
Fascists, your bloody victories hollow,
You can't hold back the tide with bayonets
Nor stop with guns the movement of the stars.
You can't crush revolution with a club,
Nor brandsh swords against mighty food.
We still march on, a grim and endless horde
No matter how you force us to retreat;
And though you NOV down millions as we come
You still will hear the marching of our feet.
You cannot kill us though we die.
The more we die the redder flows our blood
And redder leaps our banner to the sky!
