fer the comfort, health and fair op-
p%ortunity for the pursuit Of happiness
which American capitalism, for all its
shortcomings, provides.
Some Russian economists admit that
the Soviet Union really isn't practicing
communism today. But when it does,
they imply, Russia will be Utopia. Yet
here was pure communism, and it
didn't work.
It didn't work mainly because mans
nature is not changed when someone
tells him that it is only right to strive
for the general good, and that it is evil
to seek individual happiness and COM
fort. Maybe that theory is right. But
man remains a mar and not a bee. And
communism remains a little less won
derful than advertised.

BERLIN, Oct. 10-(P)-1t won

little red schoolhouse will pre-
dominate among the schools Sc
up fo- the children of American
personnel in Germany
Major Mary S. Bell, of the De.
pendents School service headquar'
tiers at Frankfurt, estimates that
46 schools will open their terms
this month to instruct an anticipat-
ed 5000 American children.
OF these, she says, Is will be ir
small communities with about q
children each, much like country
schools in the U. S. where one
teacher is required to teach al
eight elementary grades.
1t was that situation that made
Major Bells task Of recruiting
teachers in the U. S. for service
here somewhat complicated. A
b bachelor of science degree is re.
quired fo- elementary teachers anc
a masters degree for high schoo
instructors.
Maj. Bell signed up 120 teachers
from "a different states and the
District of Columbia. In general
they average eight to 10 years ex'
p~erience. Their pay is $500 an
nually with a guarantee Of travel

ably will be about IS more engaged,
and that's -eckoned enough to start
the first American school year in
occupied Germany
There will be schools in Bremen
and Berlin as we'll as throughout
the three Laender (states) COM
posing the American zone. The
smaller schools will be in the zone.
The five high schools will be in
Berlin, Frankfurt, Heidelberg, Err
langen and Munich. Berlin's school
will be a consolidated one, with
high school and elementary grades
il the same building.
By mid-September about Is teach
ers had arrived at Frankfurt to
start work on courses Of study.
The others Were on the seas en-
route or awaiting passage at U. S.
ports.
Maj. Bell said new textbooks for
elementary schools had arrived
from the U. S., along with plenty
of school supplies. It is planned to
have a library for each school and
in addition a mobile library to
supply schools in the zone.
German will be taught by Ger
man teachers supervised by an
American. That's the only course
in which Germans will be employ

taught if there is sufficient de-
mand for it.

To G. I. students in college and
G. rs in veterans organizations,
I suggest this:
Clip this column and take it to
school or to your veterans meet
ing There are a lot of vicious
takers teaching something that
they call social science sin college
nowadays who have been taking a
dirty advantage of the inexperience
and ignorance of students toe
young to know the answers, tc
teach them fascism disguised as
democracy. There are similar
propagandists in veterans groups.
So I say, bat them between the
eyes with the statements made in
this essay on the Wagner Act and
its fraudulent professed purposes
and its notorious results. You NAV
rely on the absolute truth of every
statement made. Get out the con
stltutlon and the text of Wagner's
law. Argue it out. Don't let them
oull you around with theological
Jargon or shift the ground, as thew

stuff. Don't lower your eyes and
DOW your head when they mention
the name of Roosevelt. Pin their
ears back and one day you NAV
recover the freedom that he stole
from you when you were too Young
to know.

ONE MAIL

There is no predicting what the
mornings mail will bring to a
newspaper man. Here r two let
tiers from Seventh Day Adventists
who call me names because
wrote about the Christian Sabbath.
One covers the point that all the
great Christian churches have al
ways observed the first day of the
week by saying that they were
filled by the Devil!
Because l spoke a good word for
The Holy Name Society one cor
respondent dubs me a hireling o.

terms THE Harlot."
But there are other letters, sc
kindly, so understanding, so com
mandatory that l would blush tc
quote them. One, sweetly reason
able and sincerely religious, i:
from an eminent Roman Catholic,
approving my concern for the Sab
bath. Curious, ISM 1t, now mos
of the ill temper letter that the
postman brings to me are from
my fellow Prote stants?
Of course, the cream of the
mornings mail is the letters from
generous readers (two Of them

have read so much of themselves
into what I have written that they
have been moved to express their

DEMOCRACY IN ACTION

Two G.I.'s passing through Hyde
Park in London in a jeep, stopped
to listen to one of the open-air
orators. They felt a bit surprised
when the police took no notice OF
an attack on the monarchy as "a
decadent remnant of an outworn
feudalism," but felt something was
bound to happen when the tub
thumper went on to denounce the
police as paid hirelings OF a
capitalistic society,""
Something did happen. The con-
stable on the outskirts of the crowd
walked over to the jeep and said to
the G.I.s: please turn off your
engine. The poor chap can't make
himself heard."-Answers.

Man Is Not A Bee

We Americans usually speak of COM
munism as if it were a foreign econo-
mic organism. But it might be we'll to
remember that communism has been
practiced here by various groups for
over a century. Robert Owens expert
ment in New Harmony, Ind, began in
1926, more than 20 years before Karl
Mars manifesto appeared. There was
the famous Brook Farm in Massachu-
sets, and there were various expert
ments by the followers Of Francois
Fourier.
And there was the Amana Society of
Iowa, whose whirl at communism lasted
longer than any to date. Nelson Antrim
Crawford tells it's interesting story in
the current American magazine, under
the title Communism Goes Broke in
Iowa."
The Amana Society, a religious
group, adopted communism in 1855 and
stuck with it for II years. Its seven
communities were situated on $4,000
acres of Iowa's richest farm land. It's
credo was found not in Marx, but in
the Scriptures: "None of them said
aught of the things which he possessed
was his own; but they had all things
common"
Amana followed the text to the let
ter. Everything-work, shelter, food
was by and for the community. The
only concession was IS or $40 a month
spending money for each family. "a
purported divine revelation" says Mr..
Crawford, threatened backsliders with
various woes in this world and the next,
and served to keep possible doubters in
line.
The only trouble was that Amana's
communism didn't work well. 1t got
off on even terms with capitalism. But
while surrounding communities thrived,
Amana, for all its rich land, Jagged
far behind.
The reason for this was the usual
one-lack of incentive. Productivity was
low because there was no reward for
doing better. AS one Amana man told
Mr.. Crawford: "What communists never
seem to realize is that man is not a
bee."
Amana permitted a few of it's brigh-
ter youngsters to go outside the COM
munity for high school and college
education, on the promise that they
would return. But many came back
from this liberation disconnected with
the old life. That, plus poverty, finally
forced a change. Communism was
abolished in favor of a community
corporation with the adult residents as
stockholders.
Farming and industry have been
Aourishing ever since. 1t is estimated
that this year the Amana Society, with
a total population of 1900, will produce
$4,000, 900 worth of crops, livestock and
manufactured goods. In the lush years
of 1923 and 1929, with the same acre
age and a population of 1000, the an
nual production was only $500, 900.
Amana was a laboratory test of pure
communism in an auspicious environ
ment. Amana doubtless was free of
some of the evils of private capitalism
as il is practiced. But it could not Of
