NJ CARL O'SHEA

Is SolnS Soo American employer:
eyeIETF ia a good thing to keep
IN ina Mooney in Jail, because this
~" an example that will deter
: 49,. o. trade unionists from becOm-
oIne' .oo active and effective in
nk E.W If the working class;
TTT IsT the Supreme Court may
abIp 10 keep the lid on the
DS,r,rv for some time, but it's
I'm rood idea to invest a pOr-
, s'r' of capital in foreign eOun-
tries;
TuAT the stories in the Satur-
a. Evening Post and COsmOpO-
T Y;,sn represent the peak of liter
arg artistry;
That it's good sense for employ
40 n flock TO the support of a
feIIow.emplOyer being fought by
tSo union. but that when the
%orkers institute a sympathetic
.,rike in support of THEIR bro
,bers, this is nothing less than
Bolaheyism:
THAT it's true a billion dollars
a year is n lot TO pay for the
arr,v and navy, but that maybe
,brv1l have to be called in to
down in blood a domestic insur-
Tec,ion. and that therefore it's
worth it, and this is one cause
Of high taxes we won't kicE
about;
THAT most other employers arc
Tprrible bOres but, what the he
vou have to stick to your class
THAT it's high time a stop was
pm TO free public education
tSeya are too many educated PEG
Slp now for the jobs available
besides. we can send our children
r. private schools;
THAT woman's place is in the
home, and that it's exceedingly
had taste for ladies to get mixed
nm in the class struggle-On the
sije of the workers:
THAT the number Of homeless
F. and starving children roaming the
country is dreadful. but that to
adequately handle the problem
would threaten the very fOunda-
tiOns of our government;
THAT the reason women turn to
prostitution is not because they
are mderpaid or out of work, but
because they are naturally evil;
THAT it is smart tactics to &eeT
the black worker and the white
worker ..prejudiced against --one
another. because otherwise they
might get together and cause a
lot of damage;
THAT in the person of Calvin
Coolidge could be recognized the
highest achievement to date OF
The processes of evolution;
THAT Will Rogers was funney
THAT it isn't herOism, intoler'
able conditions or devotion to
cause. but Moscow gold, tina
keeps a group of working meI
ont On strike for weeks at
stretch;
THAT a sales tax is eminentl!
just, because don't the rich Al
we'll as the poor buy commodities
THAT the reason America ha'
progressed as far as it has lie
. not in our natural resource bu
in our Contribution;
THAT capitalism, far from beini
in its death thrOes, is still JUS
a babe:
THAT a paper edited by worker
has a definite class bias, but tha
the great dailies edited and own
ed by the wealthy are impartia
and American;
THAT another war might be
good thing because the subsequ
ent carnage would solve the IN
employment problem;
THAT Samuel Gompers cOnstitu
ted a real threat to property;
That the label "parlOr pink
constitutes the most devastating
= and crushing criticism that It ]
possible to make;
THAT, thank God, the movie
can BE- depended upon to take
sensible view of strikes and sue
things.
