PRACTICAL DEMOCRACY

according to most authorities Communism is a
doctrine which would place all property in public
trust and give control by the community in
all matters pertaining labor, religion social rela
tons and
Russia, have been led to believe, is Com
munist state. Yet, notice in news dispatch from
Moscow that at the opening of the Red Parliament
LAB members of that body pledged allegiance to Jo-
seph Stain, head of the Soviet government, declaring
"All his counsel all his advice deem law" Thus
instead of having absolute control by the community
in Russia they appear have absolute control by one
Stain and his political party
AS we have had occasion to comment before, there
isn't anything much dizzer to most of than an
ism Over in Germany they have what they choose
to call Facsm with Hitler as the head In Italy
it is the same kind of a one-man government and
effort is being made to create the same thing in
Spain.
Over in Russia they talk about the comrades OF
Communism and the all for spirit That far they
appear to be dead right The "one' is a smart poll
ucian by the name of Joe Stain. But so far as
community setup is concerned, Russia apparently is
about as far away from such thing as Germany and
Italy. Those who have seen Russia in recent years
report that the Russians themselves admit they
haven't acquired true Communism but that they are
in an in-between state; in other words on the way

to Communism. And the route to their long-sought
Utopia by way of what is going there these days
(which is nothing more than dictatorship 1t is an
absolute dictatorship Years ago when we were in
school they called them absolute monarchies But
that was before the days of the ism"
Every now and then we hear somebody say thai
Roosevelt is setting himself up as dictator in this
country During the last campaign such comment
was rampant and there is still some such talk from
deluded Liberty Leaguers
But when Congress opened recently did you heal
the members rise up and pledge, "a his counsel all
his advice we deem law?" No, you did not But you
did hear all sorts of comment the Presidents mes
sage to Congress- some adverse favorable Even
Mr. Roosevelt himself when asked recently what he
thought of the Congressional opposition remarked that
Interest wanes when their is no opposition. And that
was after his specially called session which did vrtu-
ally nothing he asked.
One thing that Stain, Hitler Mussolini and the
rest of the ism politicians should be thanked for
They show us what to beware of as pursue the
good old course of practical democracy.

WHY STOP OPERATIONS WHILE NEGO-
TIATIONS ARE UNDERWAY?

After being tied up for eight days, shipping is tc
south The shipping companies and the striking
longshoremen have gotten together at least to the
point of continuing operations. OF course, Alaskans
are grateful But we not going to propose sending
orchids either both sides. Rather would like
to have them explain, if they can, why they could
not have continued operations all the while they
were carrying on negotiations for settlement?
Why does the public always have to suffer when
employee and employer get into dispute about
something? The question be asked not only OF the
longshoremen and shipping companies in Seattle
but of all labor employer groups who go strike in
order to settle some dispute.
Is there no legislation which can be put into effect
in behalf of the public which would insist that both
sides stay the job especially where public service
is involved While an agreement is being reached? 1t
was stated the time of the setup of the National
Labor Relations Board that this will prevent strikes
but of course it hasn't.
If there is going to be constant pickering
between employees and employers it seems only fair
that the public be protected To do that national
legislation it to is necessary which would
actually prohibit either side from stopping operations
while negotiations for agreements are underway par
ticularly if those operations directly effect the
Stunning public as the in the Seattle strike
or would be the in the teup of any other means
of transportation

FRIDAY, JANUARY IA, 1888

FRIDAY, JANUARY IA, 1888
Astrologers read this as an unfa-
vorable day in planetary direction.
Adverse aspects strongly dominate.
Those who exercise authority may
be unreasonable and autocratic
while this configuration prevails
Government officials are likely to
be arrogant and even blind to pop
ular movements that enlist large
'followings.
In the early morning there may
be an inclination toward irrita-
bility. Domestic friction should be
avoided with determination to
maintain peace.
Under this sway the tendency to
believe the worst is likely to be APP
parent in human relations and there
may be much envy and Jealousy
among fellow employees in shops
and offices.
Men and women who enjoy wealth,
success and prosperity will be
tempted to display their advantages.
Costly dress, sumptuouS entertain
ments and extravagant living will
prevail
Although relief problems assume
grave and difficult phases, the win
ter is to be marked by amazing ex-
penditures among persons who en-
JOY affluence.
In Europe pomp and ceremony
will prevail in many capitals, while
American cities will take on new
glories in the way of civic display.
Human needs may be attended
with bitter envy and desperate jea-
lousy.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a year of ups and
downs. They should be cautious
in legal matters. Danger of loss
through deceit or fraud is probable.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be broad in sympathy,
quick in mind and attractive in
personality. Subjects of this sign
may have unusually strong charac-
teristics.
