WHAT ‘WORLD! By Michael Gold : You Know Me Al ee was a universal cry of sincere grief and affection when Lardner passed on. He was a modest, generous friend in private an enemy of bunk in every form, and a writer of deep and unspok integrity. Like many who graduate from the ranks of American news- paper reporting, Ring Lardner never thought of himself as an artist “he word has been cheapened by all the effete little poseurs, until a real on hesitates to use it any more. Yet the much-abused word still something, and one can only say that Ring Lardner, slangy reporter ‘ed baseball games, was one of the literary ar of our time. began his career, of all unlikely places, in that garbage dump of cheap fairy tales for the white coliar dupes of capitalism, the fat, fa’ and foolish Saturday Evening Post. He had been, of all things, a reporter of sporting news, and his first stories were concerned with the misadventures of a dumb baseball player. This athletic moron was illiterate and vain. He was self-centred and a hero-worshipper, his hero being himself. Nothing outside of baseball exis‘ed for this barbarian, this brainless product of professional sport. Lardner's stories consisted of a series of letters by the athlete to his sweetheart. The peculiar language and incredible sti ity of this poputar American type was caught in Lardner’s prose as by some fine laboratory instrument. Casual readers accepted the stories as a grand farce, and yet they were a form of inconoclasm. Up till then, the sporting writers had co- operated with the entrepreneurs of capitalist sport in building up a fake glamour around the racket. Romantic stories were told of the athletes; they were surrounded with an atmosphere of valor, charm and personality. You might have thought a basebail player or priz2 fighter some kind of demi-ged, and the myih-loving masses paid millions of dollars into the box office to behold these Olympians at play. But Ring Lardner described one such demi-god in the exact terms of a scientist. Ever since it has been difficult to write very glamorously about the breed. Lardner set a new style in sports-writing. Pick up any capitalist newspaper, and turn to the sporting page. Read the star columnist there. He is generally a disillusioned cynic completely dis- gusted with capitalist professionalism, and exposing some of its lies daily. Also, he is usualiy the best writer on the paper, because he has the most freedcm to. spei Some of these writers are still venal and glamorous, of course, but in the main, the sporting page presents one of the many inner contradictions of crazy capital'sm. Ring life, Literary Pioneers HAVEN'T the critical temperament, and don’t ever expect to be a really good Marxian critic of literature. But it sometimes grieves me to see how our critics lag behind the actual movements in the literary fleld. It may be that the whole work is too new, too vast, and the workers too few for any completeness. But I have seen little by any proletarian eritic on the literary movement of which Ring Lardner was a great, if unconscicus piones: Ii was a kind of populism in literature, a return, after decades of pretcniious bourgeois writing, to the American masses. Carl Sandburg and Edgar Lec Masters in poetry, the younger Eugen> O'Neill in the drama, and Sherwood Anderson and William Carlos Williems in fiction, were some of the figures in this renaissance. What these writers had in common was a profound conviction of the spic quality of the daily life of the American worker and farmer, the emotion Walt Whitman had felt. They had sensitive eyes and ears, sharpened to every nuance of American proletarian life, every idiom and typical attitude. It has always been there, this submerged American continent, but was less known to literature than the life of the Eskimo. Mark Twain and ‘Walt Whitman hed described it in their day, but gentility had set in, and the co at sank beneath waves of plush and prissiness. * discoverers of the real America did a great job. What they lacked, of. course, was a way out of all the meanness, tragedy, stupidity and real horror they described.» But it is enough that they upset the applecart of smug bourgeois letters and opened the way for Communism, * The Problem of Style fe HIS later work Ring Lardner developed a satire as savage almost as that of Strindberg. It was still considered humor, ‘but the Saturday Evening Post wouldn’t print it. Some of his short stories of provincial meanness and the hard-boiled stupidity of Broadway are already classics. But no proletarian critic has yet appraised them. I don’t know why, except that maybe we have taken over the bourgeois prejudice which says that a pompous stuffed-shirt like Eugene O'Neill of the past few years is a tremendous thinker, while humorists like Ring Lardner, are after all, only humorists. O'Neill has become a pretentious ham poet of the bourgeois eterni- ties, but Ring Lardner never deserted the dirty city streets and tank towns. I think time will prove him the greater figure. His themes were -Wiilited, he was fascinated mostly by small town perversity and the shallow heart of Broadway. But within these limits he was as accurate as a De Maupassant. ", He was a good hater. And he was a precise artist, who had managed to put down for the first time a certain exact something which was the yflavor of America of the past two decades. I think the proletarian writers have more to learn from him than from the Thornton Wilders, Cabells, O'Neills and other stuffed shirt es- eapists. The best of O’Neill’s early work was proletarian, but romantic in the slummer's way. But Lardner had a deadly accuracy in describing urgeois society which was like Gogol’s, another “humorist” with a bitter “heart. No proletarian critic that I know has paid much attention to the diffi- cult problem of style, of creative writing. They are historians and pole- micists, a vital and necessary job at present. The young proletarian writer has little creative guidance. I would advise him, if he is bothered about style, to imitate Ring Lardner. Let him put a Communist content into this national literary form as developed by Lardner and he will be doing something really new. “Daily” Staff Member Master of Ceremonies at Theatre Night “NEW YORK.—Sender Garlin of the Johnson to Conduct Course in Speaking at Harlem School NEW YORK.—Oakley Johnson, re- Daily Worker staff will be master ot ceremonies at a “Theater Night” to be given by the Theater Collective on unday, October 15, at the City Col- ge auditorium, 23rd Street and vexington Avenue at 8.15 o'clock.

Churches and schools, parad- jing as great humanitarian | tions, poison the minds of our ¥ ing people and keep us sleeping. Es- pecially has this fakery been prac- ticed on the poor mountain whites of the southern highlands. We are beset with dozens of so-called mis- sionary schools proclaiming them- selves the saviors of the poor moun- bee “white trash,” They advertise ins great philanthropic and charitable institutions. As a southern mountaineer, I’ve grown up in our ways and customs. I've seen my people exploited—led hither and yon by false prophets of justice. I've seen sons and daughters of white workers swallowed up in the greed-philosophy of these self-cen- tered missionary schools. I've seen | the deadening and numbing effect that these schools have on the work- ers. There are scores of such false in- stitutions in the South—Berea, Lin- coln Memorial University, Berry—, but of the whole despicable lot, the Berry School at Rome, Ga., is the most undermining and most danger- cus to the white workers of the South. Like a gigantic, blood-thirsty octopus, this heartless institution reaches out its claws through the en- tire Southland, sucking up the cream building a workers’ world! Ido not pass judgment on Berry School without knowledge. In fact, I spent four years going to school there, and but for the fact that I {constantly rebelled against their whole program and philosophy, I would now be the typical Berry stu- dent—striving to be “somebody,” make. money, a name, like Henry Ford, who is the greatest single sup- porter of this school, and a figure constantly held before Berry. students for emulation. Martha Berry, descendant of slave- owning southern aristocrats, has built an institution—a monument to the name of Martha Berry. Gigantic na- tive stone buildings, erected by Henry Ford’s millions, tower to the skies like old European feudal castles. The school property consists of dozens of such buildings and 20,000 acres of land. All have been donated by peo- | ple who were touched by the sob | stories which Martha Berry is so | capable of giving about the “poor lit- tle mountain boys and girls.” Berry has three divisions of schools, the Berry College, the Martha Berry School for Girls and the Berry High School for boys. Henry Ford, one of America’s | greatest slave-drivers, has much in- terest in the Berry machine and its output.

The immediate cause of this stu- dent strike was the disgracefully low wages paid to working students. The wage there this summer has been 10, 11 and 12 cents an hour, depend- ing on how hard a boy worked, or the pull he had. The school formerly paid on the basis of 15, 16 and 17 cents an hour, but “hard times’ made the student wage come down. However, the tui tion remained the and prices in the school store where all students plies, had gone up con- summer the students going to be able to make enough in the 4 months’ hard labor to pay- tuition for ‘eight mon of school, besides working the tw days each week which all stud s do at Berry through thé regular eight months’ school year. Resenting this gross injustice, the students began laying plans for rem- edying their plight.-They set up a Students’ League and organized for a strike. And despite the fact that schocl cificials deny that any trouble took place, on August 29 every stu- dent at the high school refused to work and marched to the auditorium en masse, demanding an audience of the principal, H. G. Hamrick. Here I quote an interview with two student leaders in this strike: “Monday the auditorium and-sent after Ham- rick. He came in and we put the big question to him; could he arrange eur tuition so we could go to school eight months on four months’ labor as students have “always done here. Hamrick began “asking questions about our strike and ‘a letter we ha sent him. No one would tell anything. He then told us it was impossible to have an answer by. Wednesday night as we demanded. The students were rather tender and granted him more time. He came to a conclusion quick- er and quieter than we expected. He met the cutive committee that day and gave us some information that night. He brought Mr. Keown and Dr. Green, president of the col- lege, with him.
