They are silent, mostly middle aged and elderly men floating or the city tide. Thete are a few young men whose frayed clothes are partly hidden by thick overcoats for many of them sleep in doorways and alley-ways and the coats are needed to keep warm. They shift wearily from one foot to another while waiting for the food they will be given. For most of them i is the only food they will have this lay. Passers-by stop to stare curiously at them. A woman, slumming in China- town, clings to her escort’s arm and whispers in his ear. The Chinese, accustomed to this nightly sight, stare indifferently at the ragged line. One middle-aged man leans ex- haustedly against the Rescte Society's building wall. Whether from hunger or sleepiness it is hard to tell. Some of them seem asleep on their feet. “I wish they'd let us sit down now,” one says to his neighbor.

WS Es lg ones the Rescue Society is sharply divided by a speaker's rostrum on which a huge bible rests. One side of the place has long, hatd wooden benches, Back of the rostrum are wooden seats. The homicless ate not allowed to sit there even though there is an overflow, for those seats are set aside for Ohristian choir singers. ‘The gray haired usher explains with & knowing smirk: “If the bums sit there it might become crummy, you know, and then we couldn’t get ministers and choir singers to come down and deliver sermons and sing hymns to them.” So half of the place this night is empty, for there is only a visiting minister and two women who are to sing for the homeless and the hun- gty, two hatchet-faced women with Spectacles who look as though they would force Jesus down your throat if they had to tear your mouth apart to do it. The homeless are crowded to- gether with scarcely room to turn in. The walls of the Rescue Society are plastered with signs, signs designed to appeal to the tender emotions of sightseers who might contribute. “How long since you wrote to Mother?” “Choose ye this day whom ye will serve” and a host of others with special emphasis that the Re- cue Society is supported by volun- tary contributions. The hungry sit on the wooden benches. At my left a middle-aged man nods drowsily. To my right a man in his early thirties sits with a stub of pencell and a newspaper he picked up somewhere. He pays no attention to anyone but keeps draw- ing # woman’s head over and over alternating after each drawing the address “Brooklyn, N. ¥.” “Brook- lyn, N. Y.” Until the paper is al- most covered with the drawings and the addresses. I wonder who the woman is and what this address means that so absorbs his whole mind, from whom hunger has torn him. It is hard to tell. The warmth of the place induces drowsiness. All about me those in their heavy overcoats to which they cling lest they be stolen close their eyes and nod sleepily. ‘The usher’s loud voice sounds as he marches up the aisle: “You fellows keep awake at this meetin’ tonight” He leans over and shakes one old man who is fast asleep. “Keep awake” he calls sharply, At eight-thirty they march in or- derly fashion to the basement. One by ofie each man is given four slices of bread and a cup of coffee. Most of them cannot wait until they leave the line before they bite into the bread. Others soak it in the coffee for their mouths are dry from long hunger. They turn their faces to the white- washed wall, eating ravenously and gulping the coffee. Near me is a clean-cut, well dressed man with slightly graying hair. He is in his forties and I watch him bite into his four slices at once. He is starving. I offer him my bread. He takes it without 1 word and turns his face to the wall. I place my cup of coffee on @ window sill and turn away. AIRE hatin N old man takes it quickly, re- placing the cup with his empty one for you cannot have a second helping even if you are starving. The old man looks about him furtively, fearful that he would be caught stealing the coffee and be ejected. ‘When the men are fed they go up- stairs again to the seats they will sleep in this night. The warmth of the place, the food, the weariness that shows in everyone's face makes them drowsy and the usher parades up and down the aisle shouting to them to keép awake, ‘When the visiting preacher arrives the sleepy men are given hymn books. “Come on now, sing!” the usher New Jersey Youth Day Meet Will Be in Perth Amboy--War Shipping \Y.P.S.L.

Bentall is dead at the age of 63, as a result of heart trouble, complicated by pneumonia and a bladder operation. . Thus passed away an old figure of the American revolution: move- left wing of the Socialist Party and became one of the charter members of the Communist Party, only to fal- ter and leave his post in the Party crisis of 1929. Joined S. P. Bentall joined the Socialist Party in Chicago, together with his brother, D. J. Behtall. He was at once made secretary of the Seventh Ward branch of the 8. P. in Chicago and Subsequently became state secretary of the Illinois S. P., During the Emergeticy Convention at St. Louis of the S. P., where the Socialist Party passed a resolution against war and the reactionary lead- ers of the Patty sabotaged the reso- lution and betrayed the rank and file, Bentall endeavored to follow the resolution and took the platform against war. As a result of his speech which he made in St. Paul against the war, he was imprisoned for one vear in Minnesota. Immediately after | that he was put on trial for making & speech in- Hatchinson, Minn.. against the war and was sentenced to five years in Leavenworth. He served two and a half years there and when he came out, he immediately became active in the Communist Party. He was a meniber of the Central Control Commission up till the time when he came under opportunist influence and was expelled from the Party for his adherence to the renegade group of the adventurer, Lovestone. Shortly before he died, Bentall greatly regretted his mistake. He is | reported as saying to a worker, “I am willing to crawl on my knees to get back into the Party.” About a year after he was expelled he wrote a letter to # friend, a mem- ber of the Communist Party, saying, “Don’t ever leave the C.
