BERLIN, Dec. 10. - The Com
munist party in Germany has pub
lished several outstanding works
bv outstanding Communist leaders
both German and Russian, and Is
preparing others for publication IN
a continually expanding education
al program, an official OF the par
tvs publishing house said today.
Many of the standard Marxlst
works are being reissued IN Ger
MANY for the first time since 1882,
when they were banned by the
Nazis.
In beginning their publishing pro-
gram with the so-called basic Mar
xist work, the Communist party is
seeking to establish sound doc
trinal basis among candidates for
party membership and to educate
any new leadership that may be
developed.
The program shows that the par
tvs present activities apparently
are largely educational and organ
hation, as German party mem
bership largely was destroyed or
forced underground during the
Nazi regime.
The publishing house began its
program with publication OF the
Communist Manifesto, written
in 1847 by Karl Marx and Fried
rich Engels. It was published on
Sept. %, the 125th anniversary OF
Engels' birth.
There followed publication OF
Nikolai Lenin's work on Marx; Jo-
SET Stains on dialectical and his
torical materiaism; a volume by
Walter Ulbricht, German Com
munist party secretary, on the lie
zend of German Socialism"
At the printers, the official said,
were the works of Engeles, on the
development of socialism from
Utopia to science; Georgy Pick
hanov, on the part played in his
tory by personality, on the mater
ialistic Interpretation of history, on
contributions to the history
of materialism; Engels on the
German peasant war; the prison
letters written by Rosa Luxem-
bourgh, woman Communist leader;
and other standard Communist
works by Lenin and Stain.
The history Of the Russian Com
munist party and the letters and
documents written by Georgi Di.
mitrov on the Reichstag fire trial
will be published in editions Of
800, 600 copies.
These are only a sample Of the
hundreds Of works that the party
plans to publish within the next
year.

theoretical fundamental works to
help clarity what Socialism is in
reality" the publishing house off,

Questioned about Germany's fu.
ture outlook, the official said that
"the question of whether capitalism
should be abolished or will be
abolished completely is not on the
order or the day.
He asserted that middle-class in
tellectuals in all professions were
seeking Marxist literature as they
sought to orient themselves politi-
cally amidst the wreckage of their
country.

Washington, Oct. 18-GIs who were in the banking business before they went to war hre asking these questions about chances of getting back:
 Q. Several of the boys fin our out fit worked for banks. A lot of them say they will never go back. Is there any estimate on just how many men intend to go. back to working in a bank?
 A. Bank personnel officers have estimated as low as 25 per cent and as high as 85 per cent of the men with unemployment rights in banks would return. So far about 60 per cent of the men discharged are claiming their old jobs back.
 o. I got out of the Army because I was Over-age and on the promise that would go into war plant for a year. Do I have a right to my old job back?
 A. According to the letter of the law you don't have a legal right to your old job. You should have ap- piled for reinstatement within 90 days after discharge. Selective Serv- Ice, however, has made provisions Tor getting that job back If you had 70 agree to work in a war plant as

 Red Son got out early, though. In fact, as soon as they started the point system he showed the Army more than a thousand. and just took in the North Holly wood branch of his family.
 won't say what effect the Army had on Red Son, but after he got back, the first time I told him to situp he pulled a gun on me.
 The Army really did wonders for Red Sons voice. I took him down on Hollywood Boulevard the other day and he howled louder than I did.

white LAWYER HITS ANTI
NEGRO PROPERTY AGREEMENT

CHICAGO, April II (ANP)-|
Harold l. Kahen, local attorney
now in the armed forces, points
out the evils of anti-Negro prop
erty covenants in an article pub
lished in the current University of
Chicago Law Review.
Judicial failure to abandon a
rule so costly in it's social conse-
quences to the community at large
will ultimately require legislative
correction" Kahen writes, unless
the abominable housing conditions
for Negroes and the pernicious ef-
fects of such conditions on the gen.
eral community, are to be accepted
as a permanent condition in Amer
ican life"
Almost two decades have passed
since the U. S. Supreme court re-
jected arguments that anti-Negro
restrictive covenants are unconsti-
tutional, he said. In the meantime,
he continued, the problem of Ne
gro housing in cities has again been
intensified by the attraction of city
employment opportunities during
this war.
He declared that it is time for {
re-examination of the question by
the court, since the court decisions
seem to be flowing in direction
Favorable to constitutional pro
lection against what were once con
sidered merely infractions of civi
rights"
Kahen emphasized that Negr'
housing conditions have shown
steady tendency toward deteriora
ton.

lack of sanitation are common" h
