INCIDENTS ARE INDICATIONS
OF A STATE OF MIND

Notice that such incidents are in.
dicationS of a state of mind that
has gone on for years.
Adler,-Our concern is to deter
mine whether, as you say, the
French experience is really char
acteristic and valuable for all coun-
tries Or whether the situation in
France is, from the point of view
of the external policy of the So
Wet Union, special case, while
other countries will be treated in
the same manner as heretofore. If
the experience of France is charac-
teristic, then this is really a cause
of hope for all of us. But if we
| see that in other countries, as in
Austria, other tactics are used, then
there is reason to fear that this
is only a maneuver. You under
stand that from that time on it
was necessary for us to learn
whether the French example is
characteristic or not. If it is. we
say that there is change in course
OF Moscow. You are not delighted
to hear that. We hope that the
resolutions of your approaching
congress will give us the possibility
OF becoming clarified.
Thorez.-Permit we to say that
you are not travelling on the best
road toward facilitating a united
front.
Adler.-I know that you French
would like to have things the other
way, but I have my own RESPONSE.
billty, and am anxious, YOU I'M
derstand, before all, not to create
any MISUNDERSTANDING in our IN
ternational. We wish to be entirely
loyal and frank; toward our Party
this is our first duty; and we hope
that we will progress on that basis.
And from this viewpoint I con-
slider that our conference will have
been a useful step for the common
good of every one But tomorrow
If we publish articles in our papers
saying There are some who want
united action, others who do not
want it, who are on the lookout
Tor maneuvers, then the situation
VIII become aggravated. If tomor-
row we discover in your papers ac-
counts on your part to this effect:
Perhaps there are some in the s.
L. I. who desire united action. but
there are a few traitors who do not
want it; then our meeting TODAY
Will have a bad effect, and in a
direction entirely opposite to what
you desire.
Cachin.-So far are we from that
state of mind that we have re-
solved to make request that the
authentic report of the proceedings
be drawn up in common. I allow
myself again to point out that in
the last objections you make you
are haunted that the Communists
want to maneuver with you.
AdIer.-That you want to maneu-
yer, no!
Cachin,-No one wants to maneu-
yer. I repeat that to think Of
maneuvers at this moment, before
the immense danger that menaces
us all, is truly to humiliate us.

THE APPLICATION OF THE FACT
OF UNITY OF ACTION IN
FRANCE

Vardervelde. - I want to observe
that when our friends in France
concluded their pact of unity, they
did SO in contravention of previous
decisions of our international,
which state that we cannot agree to
united action in the individual
countries except as a result of an
understanding between the two In
ternetionals; and up to now the c..
I. never answered our overtures.
Nevertheless, when our French
comrades took the initiative to con-
clude a pact of united action on
their own responsibility, we held a
session of the executive committee
and no one posed any objection be-
cause they had violated the previous
decision, no one diSapproved of this
initial step. Furthermore, there are
in the executive and, I daresay, IN
the secretariat of the International,
men who have publicly approved
the pact; you know about it per-
haps, wrote an article myself,
openly aquiescing to what had taken
place in France. Something which
it seems You find impossible to re-
member is that we are here, Adler
and I. not in our own personal
name, not even in the name of each
of our parties, the Austrian and the
Belgian, but as representatives of
the Labor international and it i
undeniable that in many countriec
the opposition to the united front is

EXPLAINING AN ANSWER
Baldwin. N. d.
March 30. 1884

Editor, Tribune:
In your daily issue Of March 9th
in the Peoples Forum" column under
the heading, Answer to the Town
Folks" one paragraph reads as fol-
lows, Nov we must not forget the
son OF the aspiring attorney who
turned down q mail route for q road
maintaining job. Then he quit that
to work CWA."
That paragraph relates to the UNI
dersigned and my son Edwin. AS to
myself. admit that I was the de-
PENDANT in Burleigh county district
court twice and each time I success
fully pleaded my own case.
It is also true that some time in
March. 1880, my son Edwin put in a
bid in good faith for running the star
route from Baldwin to Painted Woods
and back. with myself and my wife as
his bOndsmen, he at that time having
q wife and two children to support.
He. of course not knowing that he
would be the successful bidder on the
u. s. mail route. got q job running a
blade with horses on the state high
way No. 50 near Moffit, N. D. under
the former administration. and my
son and his family moved down to
Moffit. N. D.. in the spring of 1880.
Then, when he was informed that his
bid on the U. s. Mail route was &C
cepted by the U. 8. postoffice depart
ment at Washington, D. G., I wanted
him to quit at Moffit. but the high
way department did not let him quit
but later on promoted him to the
position of motor patrolman on that
division, which position he held UNI
til about July LIST. 1888. However, he
then got fired. without cause. as far
as know. My son Edwin has now
four children to support.
I respectfully submit q copy Of the
original petition which my son pre-
scented to the state highway DEPART
ment at Bismarck, N. D., signed by
50 petitioners and Gov. VIM. LANCER.
I do not wish to take up too much
space. therefore I am only writing
the heading Of the petition.
To the State Highway Department
Bismarck, N. d.
We the undersigned residents
OF Burleigh and Emmons counties
do hereby petition your honorable
board to reinstate Mr.. Edwin
Meyers Of Moffit, N. D.. to the
position Of motor patrolman on
Highway No. 50, from U. 8. High
way No. 10 south to half way be-
tween Temvik and Linton, N. D.
/. We know Mr.. Meyers to be man
Of good character and one who
attends to his duties and keeps his
road In good shape. We are Of the
opinion that 1t Is best for all con-
cerned that he be reiustated at
this time and trust you will be
able to oct favorable In this mat
ter.
I hope that this will explain to the
readers Of the Tribune that those
seven knew little what they were
talking about. The town folks did not
mean to ridicule anyone. They, no
doubt made 4 mistake In wording
section 2 Of their article, but never
theless they AL had enough pride,
manhood and honor Of themselves
not to make public an individuals pri-
vate life.
Yours very truly.

North Dakota
Garden Chats
BY A. r. YEAGER
MAC Aorticu1furist

Why do seedlings die off when they
get 2 or inches high? The trouble
Is due to q fungus which causes the
plants to rot off. The control Is to
use fresh soil each year for starting
plants. Then, If disease appears,
transplant from the seed flat immedi-
ately, discarding the seedlings which
show signs Of disease at the ground
level.
It soon will be time to start tomato
plants and other seedlings indoors.
May we warn you again not to use
unsterilizcd dirt In which plants we're
started last year. II you do. you are
counting trouble because the soil is
quite certain to be filled with the
6amping-off disease which will cause
the seedlings to rot off at ground
level.
Where one raises small quantity
of plants my suggestion for prevent
ing the damping-off trouble would be
to put the soil which Is to be used for
raising plants in the oven and bake
1t thoroughly. Then allow the soil to
cool and use 1t for raising your seedl-
ings.
A few comments from correspond
ents regarding recommendations fol
the starting Of tomato plants would
indicate that it would be interesting
for you to know how our tomato plants
at the college are grown. We sow our
tomato seed in seed boxes about April
l. When these seedlings reach a size
where they are starting their first
real leaf between the two seed leaves,
We transplant them to individual 81
inch clay pots. believe this is about
the smallest pot in which one can
grow . really husky plant when it has
to be held to near the first Of June
for field setting. We try to maintain
q temperature Of 65 to 70 degrees
where the plants are being grown and
We give them all the light possible.
What tools are necessary for bull
ding and grating? All that is needed
is good sharp knife, some paraffin.
q few pieces Of string and the neces-
sary information. This last can be
gotten from Farmers Bulletin No. 1867.
A recent inquirer asks about New
man No. raspberries. The variety
has been tested at the North Dakota
experiment station and Is not consid-
cred superior to the Latham variety.
In order to get ground cherries to
ripen 4 good crop they should be
started inside. The middle Of April Is
plenty early enough to start the seed.
Most lawns need rolling rather than
raking In the spring.
Spring ID the best time to trans
plant asparagus. Good strong one
year old plants have been found best.
Seedlings which have been grown in
this state will vary much In size. It
has been shown that the larger seed
lines will give heavier crops In later
years than the smaller ones. Since
the asparagus bed may remain pro-
ductive for IS years 1t is evident that
It pays to be particular about the
plants. Set them In the bottom OF a
trench 3 to IL inches deep, a foot and
. halt apart in the row. and the rows
4 feet or more apart. Cover with m
inch or 90 Of soil. As the plants come
thru this, work more soil around them
50 that BY midsummer the ground Is
level. Deep planting prevents winter
killing and makes cultivation easier.
