AN HONORABLE PEACE

A lot of intellectual theorists whose practical
knowledge of the fundamental principles under
lying the origin and development of bona ide la
Dor organization in the United States approaches
the zero point continue to crate about the advis-
ability of the American Federation of Labor sur
rendering it's democratic procedure and accepting
the destructive philosophy laid down by John l..
Lewis as the basis for ending the controversy be-
tween the American Federation of Labor and
Lewiss dual and secessionst Committee for In
dustrial Organization.
The utter faacy of the admonitions exuded
by these parlor Reds and their satellites was well
exposed by the Rt Rev. C. f. Byrne, Bishop of
the Diocese Of Galveston, in an address before the
annual convention of the American Federation of
Labor at Houston, Texas. The distinguished Cath
olic prelate said:
''The whole country deeply regrets the rift
that has come in your ranks but no matter what
the loss stand for truth and principle
1T may be that the old slogan is sounded, 'di-
vide and conquer But principles are stronger, for
they of God and eternal; while slogans are Of
mans formation, and like the grass of the field
are today and tomorrow cast into the fire.
Peace is a great desire; but peace at any price
is always purchased at losing price
We suggest that the misguided ntelIectuas
who have become the victims of decadent reason
ing with regard to the division in the family of
organized labor take to heart the warning given by
Bishop Byrne. The American Federation of La
Dor desires peace and unity in the labor movement.
But it must be based on democratic procedure and
ma Ority rule, which are the fundamental princi-
pies of the Federation, and not on the dualism re-
bellion, secessionsm, and dictatorship which char
acterze the leadership of the Committee for In
duStrial Organization.

WAR DEATH TO CIVILIZATION
(Thomas F. Woodlock in Wall Street
Journal


Among the many new things which
we are painfully discovering in the
general collapse of an old order is the
fact that the civilized world can no
longer afford war-this for the first
time in the history of mankind. Moo
ern war and modern civilization art'
simply Incompatible, for war can
neither be civilized nor limited. 1t is
today an unmitigated evil, the greatest
of all material evils. 1t is, moreover,
extremely difficult to imagine modern
circumstances in which its employ
ment as means to prevent a spiritual
evil would be warranted as a choice
of the lesser evil of the two.
The terrible impasse that we have
been facing for quarter of century
arises from the fact that while the
modern world cannot afford a war, it
has been apparently unable to make
a peace. Peace has yet to be made.
All that we have done so far is to re-
coil at the last moment from war. The
hopeful things now is that the greas
fear that held us back may be- lasting
enough to bring us to the point where
beginning can be made on peace.

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

The fact that Karl Kautsky was per-
mitted to live in Vienna until the age
of "a, and was driven out only when
Hitler took over that ancient strong
hold of the Social Democrats, is evil
dence of the strong hold he had on the
minds not only of the Austrian work
ing people but also of the Austrian
nation. His death in Amsterdam,
Holland, (the same land in which
Kaiser Wilhelm found refugee occur
red on October II.
Karl' Kautsky was one of the old
guard of the tremendously vital Ger
man Social-Democracy; which means
that he possessed a mental capacity
far beyond the ordinary, standing be-
side Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles
as among the very first and foremost
of the men who hewed out of the solid
rock of European feudal-capitalistic
regimes place for the constructive
activities Of the organized workers,
both in their trade unions and their
political movement.
AS editor Of Die Neue Zeit for "a
years, he impressed upon the entire
Socialist world movement his con-
ceptions and interpretations of So
cialist thought and activity. AS an
interpreter and editor of the works of
Karl Marx his word was authoritative.
x x X
Kautsky was an irreconcilable foe
of Bolshevism. Doubtless he express
ed most completely the German Social
Democratic resentment that the "back-
ward nation -Russia-should be the
one to undertake first sthe establish
ment of Socialist national structure.
In the two decades since the close of
the World War and the founding of
the Soviet Republic, we have lost much
of the meaning, as we'll as the accus-
toned use, of the word "Bolshevism,"
in its replacement by the more rep
resentative name of Communism"
Kautsky lived and fought through
those first and formative years, only
later to see the further eclipse of the
powers, which had
been as a rising sun in Germany and
Austria in pre-war days, not only by
the tremendous power of the Com
munists but also by the Hitler-N
party, first in Germany, and then in
his own country.

Widespread unrest among German
workers, whose conditions grow daily
worse under the oppressive regime of
Adolf Hitler and his associates, is re-
ported in the Information Service of
the German Trade Unions, published
by the International Federation of
Trade Unions.
Considerable sections of the popu-
lace which prior to 1888 were pro-
Nazi, are now completely disillusioned,
and share with their fellow workers
a deep hatred of the regime.
All kinds of privileges were
promised them by Hitler before his
accession to power. None of those
promises have been fulfilled.
Conditions are reported particularly
bad in Western Germany, where mass
es of workers have been virtually
pressed into the task of building for
tifcations.
The lengthening of hours is univer-
sal and is part of general speed
ing-up' which has resulted in whole
sale exploitation of the workers. A
working week of from 60 to SO hours
is now the rule rather than the eX-
ception.
Even 100 per cent Nazis are de-
pressed by the bad conditions which
prevail, and by the dread that Hitler
is leading Germany into war of ag-
gression.

Battle of Monitor
And Merrimac
March 9, 1862

The Monitor was built in 100
days by private shipyard in Long
Island under agreement that the
Government should be refunded it's
money if the ship should prove a
failure. John Ericsson, the inven-
tor, had previously attempted to
sell the plans to France but with
out success. On March 9, 1862, the
Merrimac, under Lieutenant Gates
by Jones, returned to Hampton
Roads to complet the destruction
of the Union Fleet but was met by
Lieutenant ]. L. Worden in the
Monitor midway between Newport
News and Fort Monroe. The battle
lasted four hours without either
ship losing man. Finally exhaust
ed crews and a falling tide forced
the Merimac to return to Norfolk.
The battle was never renewed. The
Confederates destroyed the Merri-
mac when they abandoned Norfolk.
and the Monitor foundered at sea
while being towed to Charleston,
S. c. This battle showed that
wooden ships were too obsolete.

Hello Enterprise Readers: Let's
have look in on the "B" and "I"
girls and see what's going on.
Last week the new officers took
their respective positions and how
they took it. Maybe that's the
reason Nadeen Porter, President
and Edna Thomas, Secretary, were
at the "Y" Wednesday morning
before the doors opened. I under
stand that they wanted to be seat
ed and looking very important
when the other members arrived
Wednesday evening. Inez Bird,
Vice-president, didn't show up at
all but we all know how terrible
it is to be six months behind with
your ironing. Emerald Britton did
mt put in her appearance either,
but hear she had to shampoo her
hair, so we are very glad she did
mt appear under those circum-
stances. What an appearance it
would have been. Gladys Bird
looked very stylish in her new
glasses. Look out boys all the
better to see you with" Eliza
beth Thomas is one in a million,
she speaks only when spoken to.
Birdie Mae Woods keeps her
poker face throughout the meet
ing, only Little Henrietta the
clubs six months old mascot can
tell what's on her mind. Last but
by all means not least comes our
little treasure, Irene Patterson.
She has the whole club up in the
air because none of us know who
it was she saw in the flames,
when she gazed SO intensely into
the fireplace on Wednesday eve
ming. We are all wondering where
Miss Summers gets those great
big delicious ice-cream cones,
about one inch long, which she
serves to the club whenever the
spirit moves her. Mrs. Duncan is
suffering from "brief-case-it-is"
but we hope she will be well soon.
That's all readers. More news
next week.
