The Workers Laboratory Thea tire
is calling upon all revolutionary cul-
tural groups and other workers or
CARNATIONS to protest against this
vicious suppression Of mass protests
Of the subject matter. There are
also instructors who possess both,
the knowledge of the subject plus
teaching ability. It is necessary for
us to discuss both problems in order
to find ways and means of solving
them.
Most Of our instructors are re-
cruited from the ranks of comrades
actively engaged in the work of the
Party, the Young Communist
League, trade union movement, etc
This is an important prerequisite
for an instructor in our schools
One who is not participating in the
movement actively, one who merely
studies from books. no matter how
much bookish knowledge he has, is
not suitable as instructor in the
Workers Schools. 1t is because of
this that our instructors have little
time for further theoretical devel-
opment, How should we overcome
this?
The Workers School in New York
has tried several methods, which
brought good results. One is the
establishment of various depart
ments, such as department OF
Principles of Communism instruc-
tors, department of Political
Economy instructors, etc, Each de-
partment should meet regularly and
discuss the material for the lessons
One Of the instructors makes a re-
port which is followed by discussion
Here also the method of presenta-
ton, the method of teaching is
taken up. Although we have made
only beginning in this field, the
results are gratifying
A seminar in Political Economy
has been established, where the
subject is studied theoretically ano
pedagogically. This also helped
much in clarifying many phases Of
the problems involved in the teach.
ing of the subject,
Another important step is thu
general conference of all instruc
tors. This conference can taxi
place once in two or three weeks
AT this conference one Of the lead,
ing comrades of the Party leads Z
discussion on an essential problem
in the movement. At the last con-
ference of the instructors in The
New York Workers School, Com
rade Stachel discussed the prob
lens of the trade union movement
This was real contribution. Oul
instructors in the classes are otter
confronted with all kinds of ques-
tons. At the conference many OF
these questions are brought up and
clarified
The next general conference Of
the instructors will take place Sat-
urday, May IL, when Comrade v. j
Jerome will speak on THE Critical
Analysis of the Program of the
American Workers Party" The con-
ference is called for 230 pm. All
instructors are requested to be pres
ent.
Other problems of the Workers
Schools will be dealt with in sub
se1uent articles. 1t is desirable
that comrades engaged in the
theoretical training in the Party
should write articles for this col
umn. Send your articles to A.

it?"
DR. Sutherland masked his professional hor-
ror. He visioned the powerful. misfit pull that
the cheap glasses would have on Dads weak
ened optics.
II don't believe I'd wear them" he crisply
advised. Come up tomorrow and III see what
it looks like again. Haven't time this after
noon-operation at-at f." DR.. Sutherland
glanced at his watch.
Ten minutes later Dr. Sutherland was closeted
with Supt. Waring.
i've reached the end Of my rope" he
mourned. Dad insists that he can pass the
stereotyped exam with his store glasses and
believe he could. He is set on pulling the new

it will be put in operation at once. II guess
! will have to tell him after all"
mot so fast" Mr.. Waring smiled This mes
sage that just came makes a difference. That
new train will not arrive until a week from
Monday the last day Of August, and that day
Is Dads last day for active service.
SuppOSc-uO, just q OOC l WdiiI W
think You tell Dad that the Western Noun
tain has declared a holiday in his honor! That
he will deadhead with me in my private car to
Muddy River to bring that new train home"
But" Dr. Sutherland began.
We'll make it entirely safe, doctor. Dad
could run over that division blindfolded, al
most. Dan Fleming viii have orders to watch
every move and a travelling engineer will ride
the tank top. Besides that, every train on our
road will have orders to clear No. 1 30 minutes.
Is 1t safe?"
There was moisture IN DIR. Sutherlands eyes
when he gripped the superintendent's hand.
Thank you" he mumbled.
THE day was hot and sultry Is Dad oiled
the 1922 at Muddy River for the last time.
Vivid streaks Of lightning scanned the angry
fleece that rolled down over the distant bad
lands There was dash of hail that pelted
the hundreds of friends and H-Line officials
that had gathered to see Dad of on his last
trip. But the laughing crowd disregarded it.
1t was indeed Dads day. He could feel the
wealth of affection that radiated from the
hundreds of l-wishers There was q large
delegation from Sprague, where the veterans
heroism had saved scores of young people from
death or awful injury. They would ride back
home with Dad and in that happy throng, none

back iercely from the shining rails and Dad
had WINGED. The shiny steel had wriggled into
writhing lines of light, only to blanket into a
tumble of flashes.
xWatch the blocks close" Dad called to Big
Dan Fleming, his fireman. Watch EN- close,
Danny, my eyes are bothering me today. I'm
going to Doc Sutherland when I get in and get
fixed with glasses"
And it was the next day that DR.. Sutherland
reported to the superintendent of the Hi-Line
that it was unsafe for Dad to make another
trip in the cab.
But just could not tell that to Dad" DIR.
Sutherland said. There is no doubt that the
old skull fracture is causing his partial loss OF
sight and there is little doubt about his eventual
blindness. It might come at any moment or
he may go for years he Is, with only half
sight. Any sudden excitement shock would
likely cause blindness.
Il am q doctor and steeled to human suffer-
ing: but it was Dad Clayburn that staked
me to my education. How can tell the
TRUTH"
"You have told no one else, doctor9"
"Of course not"
Then don't Tell Dad that he will have
to take a rest. Tell him that you viii have
to study his case. Try out all the tints that
won't hurt him and stall him along.
THE Western Mountain Railroad will do its
part. He will get his regular check until his
pension date comes. and very likely for the rest
of his life. This railroad does no forget such
men as Dad"
So the game began. the game of kind de-
fusion. But it was pitiful to see Dad after the
first two weeks. Every day he CROPPED along
the round house path to the smoke house. He
would polish and polish whatever glasses DR..
Sutherland prescribed.
He squinted at the bulletins on the board:
but never did he ask any one else to read one
for him. It got to be q game with the engineers,
too They discussed the new bulletins with
each other so Dad could learn their import
and it was thus that he learned of the new
flyer.
COR many months there had been rumors of
this new train; but it seemed impossible to
the men that q railroad would put on q new
train after years of lean business. This train
was reputed to be the last word in travel COM
fort. Conditioned air would be one Of its
many refinements.
Until the demand became imperative for the
new torpedo train this de luxe equipment would
carry passengers in swift luxury at greatly re-
duced rates. II was the railroads answer to
bus competition.

days later, "son. I've laid OF long enough. Do

spout of his long Oil can speared
unerringly, while his keen eyes
flicked over rods and wedges.
He waved cheerily to the engi-

Hey, Dad. Look! What's he

Dad whirled. His eyes narrowed

trembled and continued to mouth
meaningless warnings.
Dad tossed his oiler to the cab
deck. His sinewy hands shot out
and gripped the operators slim
shoulder. Talk sense!" he snapped.
Sobered by Dads grim gaze, the
operator gulped out the appalling
situation.

the wheel danges when the car careened into
q long curve.
DUT Dad had leaped as he looked. His
- quick glance swept over the prosperous
mining town, over the long freight train, with
40 cars of stock on the rear. That car of
gasoline would not jump the track, now, after
rounding Lookout Point, he thought as he ran
He turned the anglecock on the tank and
jerked the coupling lever.
Throw up the spout" he yelled to his fire
man as he raced to the cab The air set on
the train was an emergency bang wnen ne
started the engine.
Get OIL" he called to his fireman when he
came down from the tank. GET OFF" he
yelled again when the fireman hestated.
Whats eatin' you?" the fireman yelled back
But he jumped from the gangway before the
picture of fury that was suddenly Dad.
Dads gone crazy-he drove me of with
q monkey wrench" the fireman told the wide
eyed train crew that now watched the 1922
roar away toward a nearby cut. But the
fireman whitened when told of the looming
catastrophe.
The crew saw the engine round the first
short curve. They saw 1t slow down at the
mouth Of the cut Then it leaped ahead again.
Volcanic exhausts rolled up from the stubby
stack
Then from the cut sheets of flame plastered
the FURNISHED blue sky, followed by pillows of
black smoke as burning fuel oil added its vol
ume to the holocaust.
Appalled, trainmen had raced up the track
in the wake of the engine. The freight engi-
neer, swathed in coats that he tore from the
others, dragged Dad back from q river Of fire.
Dad had leaped in time to escape instant
death; but he paid with fractured skull.
II waited q mite too long," he said later,
"and didn't hit that gap in the rock cut"

Just let the engine go?" some one asked him.
