THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

/ Why, on the Georgetown bus one
morning, long time ago.
The bus came back, the morning
came back, the Jones of that morning
because he was not exactly the same
Jones now-they all Of them came
back with rush.
And there was this very same young
woman, just as large, just as healthy,
with her peculiarly wide and pleasing
smile, standing up in the aisle beside
him.
Templeton Jones did not get up.
No one ever got up.
1t was all right, but Jones had
been brought up to get up.
There was no other reason for get
ting up.
Just the other day Templeton Jones
| took of his hat in an elevator.
His companion, an elderly man, re-
fused to do as much.
Il never do 1t, he said, with some
pride. Il can see no reason for it."
There isn't any" replied Jones,
except you were brought up to do it."
He hadn't intended 1t for a rebuke,
but just as plain statement of fact.
But Jones often stubbed his toe on
statements of fact. Other people sell
dom liked such facts, he discovered
long ago. He had amused himself,
upon occasion, by making such plain
statements, in order to see if he might
not find some philosopher who was
willing to accept them simply in the
spirit in which they were made.
Need We say that he never found
him?
Where were we, with Jones in the
bus five years ago, or with Jones
standing on the steps of a downtown
restaurant yesterday?
| Surely, 1t makes little difference.
Jones Is Jones, wherever he is, wher-
ever he was.
That great man stands, let us say,
gazing after the too-tall form Of the
striking young woman.
| He has placed" her, at last. and Is
satisfied. He will never see her again,
and that Is all right, too.
The important thing was to have
placed her, to have put her back in
that bus, standing up, and he sitting
down.
Seated. with an uneasy feeling in
his head that he ought to get up and
/ give her his seat. The Freudian
philosophy might read into this all
sorts Of things, but Templeton Jones
didn't put as much stock in Freud as
he once did. Life is bigger than
Freud, he knew.
y n \
| Jones knew better than to believe
that his uneasiness about being i'm
polite. at that far time and place. had
anything to do with his remembering
/ the girl.
Jones was connoisSeur of facial
lines, and there was something unique
in the curve of this girls Jaw.
Yes, 1t was her jaw; a very unusual
jaw.
Old Lombroso would have loved it
T'empleton Jones. although he would
never admit 1t. had fallen in love with
it, too. at sight
That line Of a woman's face. from
her ear to her chin. is thing of true
beauty when it is right, and Temple
ton Jones, though not an artist. recog-
nized the beauty of it: though not a
scientist, knew its appropriateness.
For the nonce. he was Leonardo and
1Ombroso rolled into one.

we cannot do this reasonable and
simple thing is because the factories

Communists are among the
most active organizers Of a rank and

Communists have been and still are
among the best fighters against the
wage cutting pension plan Of the
LR.T. corporation. Communists are
among the best fighters against the
yellow dog contract, against the
company union and for the return
Of the ten per cent wage cut. Every
gain made by transport workers in
recent months, every concession
won from the company came as a
result Of struggle that Communists
played an important part in, in the
ranks of you workers.
Communists are your buddies,
workers just like you The Commu~
mist Party is a working mans Party.
A Communist elected to Congress
or to the State Legislature will fight
inside as well as outside for higher
wages, for return of wage cuts.
Every elected Communist candi-
date will use his Office to rouse pub
lie opinion and will rally the masses
in support of your right to organize,
against the company union.
The Communist Party leads the
fight for unemployment insurance
and adequate relief. A Communist
in Office will rouse the country in
the fight for unemployment insur-

To Vote Red
Call to All Transport
Workers Issued by the
Communist Party

Declaring that the capitalist par
ties are making the welfare of the
transport and surface line workers
in New York football in the
scramble of various capitalist groups
for city franchises, the New York
District of the Communist Party
yesterday called on all transport
workers to vote Communist on cleo
ton day.
The text of the call to the trans
port workers follows:
Brothers!
You are now engaged in very Sc
rious work. You are undertaking q
Job that determines and affects
your life, your ability to feed your
families and live like decent human
beings. Like the rest Of the workers
you are turning to organization in
order to protect your standard of
living to obtain your daily needs.
You are determined to protect
yourselves from the steady attacks
of the traction millionaires through
organization and united action.
Now you are just before an cleo
ton. All year round you are mis-
erably oppressed and exploited by
the companies. Your wages are cut
Long hours, victinization, system
Of company stoolpigeons and the
company union violate your ele-
mentary human rights. You are
bounded and driven like slaves.
Now they tried to put through a
new pension robbery on the I. R. It.
Yet you don't see the Democrats,
Republicans, Fusion and Socialist
parties around at all. All year
round they don't give a hang about
your conditions and needs.
But just before Election Day you
suddenly become very important.
All of them lombard you for your
votes. Politicians with glib tongues
and easy promises offer you every
thing. They tell you what favors
they'll do for you.
1ou transport workers partlCu-
larly are vitality interested in cleo
tons. City franchises, city agree
ments with the traction corpora
tons and the bankers make your
lives, the lives and happiness of
your families football for the
politicians. The officials and people
you send to Office can do a lot to
affect our bread and butter. You
therefore must think very seriously
about who you are going to vote
for. Which party really represents
you? Which candidates you can
safely rely upon to fight for your
interests in public office?
Now how many times did we hear
the promises of these parties and
politicians? What has it brought
you? Elections came and went. La
Guardia was elected Lehman was
sent to Albany. New Deal" Roose-
welt got a big vote. What didn't
they promise the workers. But your
conditions have become worse. Life
has become harder. 1t is more and
more difficult to maintain a family.
