a | i } St, at 8:30 p.m. | LECTURE BORO | of Walter Roject Br. LL.D. end ¥.€.L, poe 43 Manat Lou WHAT WORLD! By Michael Gold | The Holly and Mistletoe ‘\APITALISM is making ready for its annual orgy of hypocrisy. Christ- mas is near. _ We have no sour complaints to make against the holly and the mistle- “toe, the good cheer and the social kindliness that often prevail at this holiday. Whatever their religious or pagan origin, holidays are an expres- ‘sion of the fundamental goodness of human nature. Capitalism Is an evil mould into which human nature has been forced. The system is the great criminal. You cannot grow healthy wheat in a dark cellar, You cannot have feet to walk with, as nature inten‘ed, if you bind them at birth as do the Chinese aristocrats, Profiteering, hypoc- risy and war are the laws of success under capitalism, and people who succeed under it must of necessity be unscrupulous robbers, lars and murderers. Yet some day, when the dictatorship of the proletariat has done its hhecessary work, when all classes have been abolished and there is a Soviet world, we will discover that human nature is fundamentally good. This truth breaks out occastonally even today, in the solidarity of strikers who share danger and hunger together, in the self-sacrifice of a hero like Dimitroff, in the life of a leader like Lenin. It is dimly seem at various holiday times, when people try to forget the meanness and degra- dation of capitalist life. It is seen at Christmas, and the capitalists exploit this warm human feeling for their profit as they do everything else in life. . . . A Class Weapon 1 Red Cross was founded presumably to be the voice of hufhanity on the battlefield, to help the wounded and suffering regardless of party. But we know what a swindle and lie this is. The Red Cross was used in Europe and Russia to fight on the side of reaction against the working class. The Red Cross has always refused to help starving miners if they were union members; it has Jim Crowed the Negroes and discriminated against them in floods and tornado catastrophes. It is definitely a class “weapon, and no worker should -assist it in any way. ‘The Salvation Army was also founded with many high-sounding words, but any jobless man tramping the roads of America today can testify to the cheap racketecring of this outfit. They collect a great deal of money from charitable people. They use it to sugar-coat the religious pill with which they try to put the workers fighting spirit to sleep. But it isn’t even @ sweet pill. They have never been known to give anything away. They sell the old clothes and furniture they panhandle; they charge for every bed and meal they serve; what is more, they work the unemployed at the meanest kind of scab wages. The Salvation Army has been exposed often, but not in any thorough enough manner. The job still waits to be done. Somebody should investi- te the ritzy hotel in New York erected for the Christly officers of this organization. Some one ought to find out where the profits go of their various collecting campaigns. Somebody ought to check the saintly Com~- mander Booth’s income tax, and find out how she can afford to travel to Europe in the finest bridal suites and capitalist luxury. ’ “ wet Tre Real Christmas ne Christmas: let a new book on Christmas be written, not the senti- mental Charles Dickens kind, but a truthful picture of the great lie. nothing but a sordid selling campaign for department stores.

And at Christmas they smirk, and give each cther little presents, and sing Christmas carols, and drink egg-nogg, and pretend to remember the poor. One day cf pleitstion! How 2 brotherhcod, in a year of 365 days of heartless ex- n anyone bejieve in such hypocrisy? A Tow’'s Charity Gesture 3 Bee ew York Times is one of the leading Tory sheets of America. Its editorials are certain to be arrayed on the side of big capitalism. It is against unemployment insurance, it fights real labor unionism (not the Leo Wolman, McGrady, John L. Lewis fraud of course), it defends bank presidents exposed for swindling, it has criticized those who attempt to stop child labor. It is a smug but subtle kind of Tory. Many ex-Socialists are found in its adm/nistration. The rank and brutal Tory has a harder time function- ing today, as was proved by Hoover. A veneer of liberalism must shield the exploiter from the view of the bitter masses, and the “Times” is skillful in this kind of protective coloration. There are over a milion people in New York without work or food. | For years children have been dying of that capitalist disease politely named “malnutrition.” The total of suffering in the homes has never been told; the slow deaths, the insanity, the heartbreak, The “Times” never has a word to say about this, except to demand that the tax-rate be decreased on big business. But at Christmas they pick 100 names off the charity rolls and raise a few thousand measly dollars as a tip to the poor for their patience. They parade the horrors of proletarian life under capitalism in a daily column called the 100 Neediest Cases, and ask us to cure this with a few $5 bills. Listen to this smug lead on one of the daily stories: “The cold and snow, bringing suffering to the poor but reminding the more fortunate that the Christmas season of giving is here, brought a wel- come increase to the fund for the Neediest Cases yesterday.” Then follow little tragedies? C Case 10 is a lovely talented girl of 14 with- out any home; Case 120 is a Widow with five hungry children; she is sick _ With a chronic illness but worked in a laundry until she dropped of ex- -haustion; Case 2 is an.old longshoreman and his wife; she was the mother of the neighborhood, helping everyone, but now she and her husband are helpless; Case 44 is a dying Jewish scholar and family man who peddles razor blades on the streets when he is well enough to stand on his feet; Case 14 is that of an Irishwoman who was a dressmaker for ‘many years, but broke her arm, and is starving; and Case 8 is that of the family of a man who was an important business executive, but now his 16-year-old - boy, who is a half-cripple, supports the family as a messenger boy; and so - on and so on, At Christmas the big-hearted New York Times remembers these or people. There are 15,000,000 neecKest cases in America all during the ‘ear, but these hypocrites never tell the true story or pretend to feel sorry. fithey walt for Christmas!

She was the best known woman writer of China, member of the Executive of the China League of Left Writers and @ leader in the Left Cultural Fed- eration. Her husband, Hu Yeh-ping, was also a well-known writer, lead- er of the worker-sold‘er correspond- ence section of the League of Left Writers. He was executed in Shang- hai in February, 1931. The follow- ing story by Ting Ling is translated from the Chinese.) ‘(LISH —SLOSH—slish slish—slosh | slosh... . ” ' From out of the greenish lamp- Nght of the hall an indistinguishable mass of human shadows was moving in the direction of the open ficld. Boots and shoes stamped heavily through the deep snow that covered the ground. The furious blasis of a winter night met them full in the face, assaulting them with the fine sleet and heavy snow that had fallen for half a month. The sudden attack of the icy wind drew involuntary shivers, but the shadows proceeded on. Siish, slosh—slish, slosh! | A second gust, roaring heavily, swept pitilessly over them, cruelly lashing the faces and bodies of the group. In the interior of the group, surrounded, guarded, driven on, walked a delicate youth, handsome in spite of his haggard face. He seemed to remember something with a@ sudden start. The past—all that had just happened—seemed to come, if somewhat distantly, yet clearly be- fore him. He saw a crafty face, filled with malice and greed—a full, round face, with the hated imperialistic mustaches. There was repressed glee in the evil, arrogant voice as the man had spoken, looking arrogantly at vshem from his high platform. “Have you anything further to say? Sentence has been passed on you and it will be carried out immediately.” Remembering, the youth felt al- most consumed by the fire that burned in his soul. He wanted to tear that face to pieces, to destroy it, to extinguish that voice! For one mad moment he thought he must force his way through the group, and he quickened his step. A short time ago, when he had suddenly been condemned to death without trial, he had been unable to preserve his com- posure as his other comrades had | done, but had lost consciousness in a wave of fury and anguish. | He was a young poet, emotional, sincere, passionate. “Pun-g.” A rifle butt crashed heav- ily on his chest. Thin-chested always he had grown more emaciated from 20 days of half-starvation in the dark and sunless prison. His memo- ries were interrupted by the curses of the soldier who struck him vi- ciously. “Rape your mother! What's your hurry? The devil can wait to take youl” Battle of Chains Clank! Clank! The hateful rattle of iron shackles on his hands and feet, and on the hands and feet of his comrades. About him was a con- fusion of sounds—hob-nailed boots stamping heavily over deep snow. Slish, slosh! Slish, slosh! Something else became clear. He realized that he was walking some- where. A strange thought came to thm. He seemed to see another pair of eyes before him, a pair of lovely, unforgetable eyes that gazed eter- nelly into his soul, Something in the intimate labyrinth of his heart pain- fully tore at him, stabbed him. The sky was black — illimitable blackness! Out from the blackness the sleet and snow whipped about them, carried by the roaring north * | Night o Death A SHORT STORY --Dawn of Freedom | by TING LING wind. The world was gray and ne- bulous and the snow threw-a dead ashen hue on the night. The black shadows of the group, the victims and their guards—moved. “silently through the grayness, the’ silence broken only by the clanking of chains, the rattle of bayonets. But no word was spoken. No one moaned, no one sighed or wept. Steadily they moved toward the hidden corner of the field, the place of execution! “Damnation!” some @he was saying to himself. “The dogs!

He bit his lips and shuddered with a ‘hatred he could not express. With staring eyes that burned with some fire, he looked about him, devouringly, as-though in | search of something, péering: first at | one and then another of his comrades. | Face of a Comrade The faintly reflected light from the snow revealed the faces of those near- est him.

The face bestowed | upon him a look of tenderness andj} calm, a look that transo all} power of words, a look suth as only one comrade can give to another at the time of death, to comfort and| hearten. His anger and horror slip- ped formlessly away.

He returned the look and then gave 2 nod of courage and determination. “Slish, slosh... .” The tramp of footsteps began to sound. like the disorderly beating of victoriotis drums on every side as the 25 marched for- ward. Above their heads the wind now became like a giant'red banner flapping over them. “Halt! This is the place!” shouted the uniformed officer fiercely, his Mauser clutched in his hand. “Halt! Where are you walking to! Sons of bitches!” “This is it!” came the-dull echo in all hearts. : “Line up the prisoners; Line them up!” The officer spat out the words.
