should have murdered Reeves for
that. He tried to claim something

don't kill people for getting them

That's not quite 1t, Lee" Tim
explained carefully. "This guy was

which he's finished his work and
probably never can enter any other
college again to complete his studies.
Even if he could, the story would
follow him everywhere he went and
no college would ever hire him az

If the fellow had wanted for five or
six years to be a teacher and some
other man destroys forever his
chance of doing it. miGhtn't he kill
the man who had ruined his career?
Maybe" agreed Lee. but just the
same the fellow ruined his own life
when he tried 10 claim those papers.
1t wasn't Reeves fault. Anybody
but a nut ought to be able to see
that the blame was on his own head"
Tim sat silent. seemingly digesting
the inspectors last remarks. Maybe :
he is a nut. then" he said at last

With a slow reluctance Lee passed
him the yellow message.
Tins eyes grasped the printed
words quickly but it was a fun

muttered at last.

inspector grimIy. windsor Hall,
Sylvania, Texas was the other man
involved with Reeves" Pretty damn
funny that Hall turns up on the
scene as investigator of the mysteri-
Gus death of a man he tried to ruin

But Tim scarcely heard him. His
mlno was racing With possibilities,
Center City was only two hours
flying time from Chicago. Hall had
told them so himself. If Hall had
killed him, he could have been back
in Chicago and ready to receive the
word of Reeves death when his office
called him the next morning. Then

fastened on the envelop. He was
hastily calculating time and the
possibility of its being an answer to

words brought him up sharply.

a couple of degrees and for the last
one, which they call his doctorate, he
has to do some research work and
publish what they call thesis about
| il. It's a difficult job especially in
English, because with so many people
doing it, it's hard to find something
new and worthwhile about literature
on which to write a whole book.
That's probably why Reeves hung
onto his stuff 81 carefully without
even telling his wife what he was
working on. 1t was about a writer
called Bierce. who fought in the Civil
war and when he was an old man is
supposed to have gone oyer into
Mexico during that fracas just before
the war. Well, no ones ever known
what became of him and this material
of Reeves attempted to explain it..
It's valuable.
''The thesis was accepted of course
with a good deal of excitement by
the university because it promised to
make quite a stir in the world. The
day after the news had leaked out
the guy whose name is in that tele-
gram went to the president of the
university and swore all the dope in
Reeves thesis belonged to him and
own thesis. on which he was just
ready 20 begin work.
"He even said that he'd shown the
stuff to Reeves some time before and
that Reeves had offered to take it
east with him to see If it were au-
thentic When Reeves came back,
according to this fellows story. he
said the dope was all false and he
hadn't even bothered to bring the
letters. which were its foundation.
back with him.
This chap had only vague story
to tell about how he'd got hold of the
stuff in the first place but he did
know something about its contents,
and since no one supposedly had
read Reeves thesis, the university
authorities were rather upset.
ITO settle IT, they appointed a
board of examiners and the two men
were questioned about the material
in the thesis very closely. each of
them alone. This fellows knowledge
was so thin that the board decided
that he never could have really
owned the letters. 80 they eXonerated
Reeves and kicked this other fellow
out.
Wilson told me rather unwillingly
because he'd promised Louise Reeves
to keep it secret. but he felt he
had to make it known in case il had
some bearing on the crime"
This venture into higher learning
was little too much for Lee, whose
knowledge of universities extended,
until the present case, only as far
as undergraduates and their pranks.

even those spineIess creatures are
better able to muster UP that cour-
age than the average parent who.

or cross a child and 20 exists in a
lifelong state Of slavery and sor-

No matter how many rights the

time.
1 have in mind the widowed
mother of a girl Of 10 who permits
herself TO be ordered about as If
she were a member Of chain gang.
Having lost her husband she dotes
upon his child. AS each day passes
she stores up bitterness for herself
and misery for her daughter, who
already regards her mother as a
being solely created to u her bid
ding.
Such women live In fool's para
disc. For the day will surely come
when they viii be evicteo trcIiI their

dren for whom they have sacrificed.
If I were asking God Tor one
boon to bestow upon mothers 1
should ask for seIf-respect. We
want above all else TO have our
children approve and love us, but
the extent Of their approval and
love will be measured inevitably by
the appraisal we put upon ourselves
as individuals. Such self-appraisal,
unless carried to the extreme of
egotism, always determines our i'm
portance in our children's eyes.

systematic organization but by agita-
ton about the campaign. They be-
came interested; their sense Of duty
toward the Order was awakened. So
they went to work and recruited new
members. But there was little real
organized collective effort, house-to-
house canvassing, organized visiting Of
workers organizations, etc,
If We cannot put the social in
surance campaign on the basis Of an
organized collective effort, 1t will re-
main weak.
A survey must be made by the
branches, by the language city com
mittees and the city central commit
tees, of workers fraternal organiza-
tons, of their meeting places, their
meeting time and other such infor-
nation. Committees must be sent to
these organizations. Squads of leaflet
distributors must be modified to
cover the meeting places.
Supporters in one or another Of
these organizations must be called to
meetings to plan the campaign in
their respective organizations, Com
mittees must be set up and their
functioning must be stimulated and
directed.
All this requires organization.
Voluntary individual work will never
achieve what can only be done by
organized collective efforts.
All city central committees, all
language city committees and all
Branch Executives must at once take
up the social insurance campaign.
Plans of work for the campaign are in
the hands of the secretaries. At
present it is the duty of all Executives
to put these plans into life. This is
as important a task as the soliciting
of new members. New members are
the bricks with which we build the
structure of our pro'etarian mass
fraternal movement. Our activities,
our social insurance campaign, our
educational work, are the cement
that will keep this structure together
and that will determine It's strength.
Anti Fascist Action
The struggle against fascism is at
present one of the most important
battles of the working class. German
fascism brushes the labor unions. It
suppresses the workers under the iron
heel Of its terrorism and its hunger
program.
The only power left in Germany to
fight Hitler terror is the Communist
Party Of Germany. The support of
the struggle against fascism in Ger
many must therefore take the form
of direct support to the Communist
Party of Germany.
AS a method of mobilizing the work
ing masses in New York and as a
means of organizing direct support to
the anti-fascist struggle of the Com
munist Party Of Germany, mass
affair will be held on Sunday,
February II in the Bronx Coliseum.
Earl B~owder, Secretary of the Com
munist Party of the u S. A., will be
the speaker. A program has been ar
ranged in addition. All members OF
our Order are urged to support this
affair They should participate in it.
They should bring their fellow work
ers to it.

Clerks Fired by
A&P, Then Retired
At Code Minimum
By a Food Worker Correspondent

By a Food Worker Correspondent
NEW YORK.-To get job in the
A. g. P. Tea Co., I had to hide the
fact that was college graduate.
What I have learned about the
blood sucking methods of this gigantic
chain system, which information is
now being spread by our growing
group Of militant workers to every
one of our fellow workers, will IN
time give the boss and the strike
breaking N.R.A. boss something to
worry about.
The clerks are beginning to see
that the infamous Section TIA is
being used solely as a tool of the
boss. For who can determine the
merits of some of the worst ex-
plotted wage-slaves, the grocery and
butcher clerks?
The workers see that many of the
clerks have been fired under Section
TIA, then rehired under the N. r. A.
code at a salary little above the
minimum.
How many poor deluded 75-hour a
week managers ever been approached
by N.R.A. board inspectors checking
up on stores and employees? How
many clerks for fear of losing their
jobs are forced to give up part Of
their lunch hour and also work over
time without pay?
Only through the formation OF a
branch of the Food Workers Indus
trial Union can we take into our own
hands the remedy of these conditions.

81 SAW THE RED FLAG FLY"

Detroit, Mich.
On New Years morning, was out
walking on jefferson Avenue, when
came to Memorial Park. This park
is between Crane Avenue and Fisher.
1t is one Of the main thoroughfares
of Detroit. AS I came to the flag
pole, I saw a group Of men standing
around it, They were all looking up,
so I, of course, looked too, and what
do you suppose saw?
Waving proudly and gloriously in
the sky about ITO feet up, was a
huge Red Flag with large yellow
words on 1t. I juts stood there and
gazed with admiration and I thought,
well, at last somebody is doing some
thing to arouse the workers Of De-
troit." Oil was I proud Of 1t, flying
away there so bravely. I want to
congratulate the comrades who did
this, for they sure did a good job
of it.
The men and police at the foot of
the pole were trying their best to
lower the flag, but the more they
pulled on the rope the tighter it be-
came. 1t was laughable to watch
them. They became so mad at it,
that the police were shaking their
fists at It,. But the flag continued
to fly there, and 1t few from the
Sunday night or early New Years
Day until late the following Thurs
day afternoon, before they finally got
it all down.
You could read the writing on the
nag very clearly, and this Is what 1t
