DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1934 Page Seven | CHANGE op | WORLD! By SENDER GARLIN PTON SINCLAIR is evidently making elaborate plans to remove his personal belongings into the Executive Mansion in Sacramento, but I don’t think he’ll get the latch-key in spite of the large vote which he received in the recent primaries. My own hunch is that the bankers and manufacturers and plantation owners who rule California do not as yet need the services of Mr. Sinclair and prefer to go along with the preseat incumbent, Mr. Merriam. Large numbers of workers, ruined members of the middle class, and small business men, evidently supported Sinclair on the naive theory that any changevis preferable to the status quo, and explains the large vote which he got in the Democratic primaries, The insidious epncept of the “lesser evil’ seems to have resulted in bringing such vide support to Upton Sinclair's candidacy. The former Socialist’s jesse is a potpourri of utopian reforms and demagogic promises /and has evidently deceived thousands of California voters. In spite of President Roosevelt’s timorousness in publicly embracing Mr. Sinclair, the latter bubbles with affection for the President and his New Deal policies, Roosevelt declines to grant an interview to Sinclair, but is willing to meet him as “an individual.” It’s interesting to specu- late on what President Roosevelt and Sinclair will talk about in Hyde Park, if both eschew politics. Let’s see, what might they discuss of a non-political nature? Well, Upton Sinclair is quite a tennis player, and I understand that Mr. Roosevelt is very fond of sports. I’m not sure that the President is crazy about tennis, but I do know that he just loves fishing. As for Sinclair, I know that he’s a frenzied tennis player. In fact, numerous of his books recount how he once spent a day in a Delaware jail for playing tennis on Sunday in violation of the “blue laws.” Moreover, if it weren’t for Sinclair's craze for tennis, the world might never have heard of his “Epic Plan,” for another of the famous author’s books tells how he moved to California so that he could play tennis every day! Of course, it depends on the length of the interview that President Roosevelt grants Sinclair, but they could discuss various forms of dieting; argue whether raw meat is really the bane of our civilization, and perhaps speculate on mental telepathy—a subject which Mr. Sin- clair has immortalized in an entire book. The President has a nice, big estate at Hyde Park, and if there’s Still time he could take the famous ex-Socialist around the place and show him the sights. As a friend of Luther Burbank, I know that Mr. Sinclair could have a grand time discussing the various types of trees, foliage and fine gardening on the estate.’ Oh, there are lots of things to talk about even if politics is ruled out! Insists He Was Always a Democrat Tr bad that Mr. Sinclair can’t talk politics to the President, for then he might pour out his schemes for eliminating poverty in California —once and for all. He might also get some suggestions from the Presi- dent on the running of the C.C.C. camps, so that he might put them into practice in his contemplated land colonies for California’s million unemployed. Can it be that Mr Roosevelt is unfamiliar with Upton Sinclair’s campaign literature, in which the latter crosses his heart and swears by all that is holy that he has always been a Democrat? “It happens,” writes Sinclair, “that I am a Democrat by the same right that makes us Americans either Democrats or Republicans. I was born one... . My grandfather, Captain Arthur: Sinclair, commander of a U. S. naval vessel which helped to open [Exploit—S. G.] Japan to the western world, was a Democrat. My great-grandfather, Commo- dore Arthur Sinclair, commander of the Congress, the first frigate built by this nation, was a Democrat. How did I cease to be one?” What's more, Sinclair claims to have predicted the famous “Roose- velt Revolution,” for he declares that “it is interesting to note that in the first book I wrote in support of my new ideas, The Industrial Re- public, published in 1907, I predicted that the Democratic Party would be the instrument through which the needed changes would be brought about in America, I declared that the Democratic President who per- formed this service would ‘write his name in our history beside the names of Washington and Lincoln.’” Sinclair may be an excellent prophet, but in 1933, when he criti- cized Roosevelt and the ‘New Deal’ in his book, “The Way Out,” he was unable, apparently, to foresee that he would be lauding Roosevelt to the skies in 1934. He chides Roosevelt in “The Way Out.” “We have a new President, promising a ‘new deal,’” writes Sinclair, “He is unfolding it as I write, and I can only discuss what has so far come to view. First, we are for- hidden to own any gold; the virtue of thrift which has been dinned into us from childhood is now punished by a ten-thousand-dollar fine and ten years in jail. ... A million or so of veterans and hard-working public servants are to be deprived of their jobs, and are to receive the same amounts of money as a dole! ... Another boon for the farmers; they are to be taught to reduce their product, by rendering part of their land to the government, which will keep it idle. ... There is only one source of wealth sufficient to stand the strain, and that is the pocket- book of our good Uncle Samuel.” Today, however, Upton Sinclair is beside himself with enthusiasm and declares that his victory in the primaries is a “victory for the New Deal.” . . * He’s Not Against Profit INCLAIR may be a dangerous radical to the tory New York Herald Tribune, but there’s nothing in his platform to frighten the average business man, although I'm convinced that the real financial powers which dominate Califorria don’t want Mr. Sinclair—just yet. “I don’t want to interfere with profit,” Sinclair announces in his campaign paper. “Profit is being killed by the present system. If any business man is able to make a profit under this present system, I have no desire to interfere with him.” One of Sinclair's financial backers has had quite a bit of experi- ence in gathering profits. His name is Edward Filene, the Boston de- partment store owner. Sinclair's campaign paper proudly carried an article on “The Sales Tax Question” recently, and described the gentle- man as “Planner and Co-organizer of the Boston Chamber of Com- merce as well as the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, and the International Chamber of Commerce.” Mr, Filene made a radio address in Seattle, Wash., the other night, and I was lucky enough to obtain a copy of his speech. It’s entitled, “Can Business Abolish Poverty?” and abounds with various profound thoughts such as one hears from business men who speak over the radio. But Mr. Filene did make one or two points, which, in view of the fact that he is such a fervent supporter of Sinclair's candidacy for governor, prove to be very revealing. “Socialism seemed to thrive in Europe. But as Socialists were elected to office, and faced with the practical responsibilities of gov- ernment, the less they scemed to talk about the abolition of poverty. I don’t mean that they sold out. They did not necessarily give up their dream. But they were faced with facts; and they were forced, appar- ently, to declare a moratorium on their dream, and to postpone the abolition of poverty to some far-off futire date, while they were deal- ing with those facts.” Sinclair’s European Colleagues INCE Sinclair's chief slogan is “eliminate poverty in California,” Mr. Filene’s observations seem to be rather indiscreet at this time. The fact that Sinclair runs for office on the Democratic ticket instead of the Socialist ticket is irrelevant; his reputation as a Socialist author is being utilized to its fullest extent in his campaign for election. Continuing his observations on the activities of Socialists elected to office, Mr. Filene says that “I do not mean this as any attack upon the Socialists. That they were often men of exceptional ability must. be admitted. One of them is now the honored head of the conserva- tive government of Great Britain. Another is Fascist Dictator of Italy. One could name country after country in Europe in which the Social- ists have functioned as the most far-sighted statesmen.” Well, Italy has its Mussolini, former editor of the Socialist “Avanti”; Great Britain its Ramsay MacDonald, former Socialist parliamentarian, and California may have its Upton Sinclair, for years a leading figure in the Socialist movement of the United States. + To the workers and farmers of California the development of the Mussolinis and the MacDonalds from Socialists to Fascists should serve as a danger signal; Mussolini and MacDonald serve the capitalists of their countries best precisely because of their mass experience in the Socialist movement. Sinclair's reputation as a radical author and his emergence as the standard bearer of the Roosevelt strikebreaking gov- ernment should make the parallel strikinaly clear.

International Publishers. $1.60. Reviewed by ISIDOR SCHNEIDER 'ARLY this year a book on China was pubiished which was gen- erally hailed as the “last word” on Chinese history. Bourgeois reviewers heard the last word and gave it vigorous applause; and they re- peated it loud and long in their book reviews. This last word was a fat two vol ume history of China by a former missionary and now Yale professor, Kenneth Latourette. Why was it applauded so? Because in all the dense pages of this “authoritative work,” the historian could squeeze in only one single and brief para- graph on the greatest event in Chinese history, the establishment of the Chinese Soviets. And this one paragraph told a lie, a neat “white” lie, to soothe ruffled cap- italist breasts. It assured American imperialism that there were no actual Soviet governments in China; and it out- lawed the Chinese Red Army from military consideration as a loose, temporary association of bandit gangs. And after this lovely dream in which the brave professor de- Stroyed the Chinese Soviets and annihilated the Red Army with a paragraph, he laid a smooth, thick coat of whitewash over Western imperialism. et coe 'O Agnes Smedley’s book comes as @ needed corrective. It will make bourgeois circles nervous.

His hobo life never came to his mind. But Edna's mother wanted to know more about the boy with whom her daughter went out. She knew he wasn’t a town boy. Edna told her that he was Mrs. Porson’s nephew. Mrs. Wrobley, Edna’s mother, knew the landlady, well. They were members of the same church. She went to pay her a visit. Mrs. Porson was glad to see Mrs, 8 Wrobley. They began to gossip, and Edna’s mother gradually led the conversation around to Cliff, asking Mrs. Porson how her nephew was getting on. The landlady was surprised. She said that Cliff was only a boarder, and, for that matter, the worst boarder of all. He was also a tramp. He washed his clothes in the kitchen and used her soap and gave her a lot of trouble. She would like to get rid of him, but he owed her for three week's board and it would be lost if she'd tell him to move. Then she asked how Mrs. Wrobley came to know him. Edna’s mother said that he was her girl’s boy friend. Mrs. Porson advised her hotly to make Edna put an end to the friendship. Edna’s mother came home all ex- cited. She told Edna what she had found out from Mrs. Porson. She warned her daughter that if she kept on stepping out with that tramp, she’d have her chased out of the house. Edna was shocked to hear all this. She didn’t know what to say or think, so she shouted at her mother accusing her of going around telling people about her boy friends, “It's for your own good,” Mrs. Wrobley cried. “If you’d have any sense you’d be goin’ out with de- cent boys.” ‘Tl go. with anybody I like,” Edna shouted. “Not when Pa gets after you,” her mother threatened.

E. Zviagintzev of the Soviet Academy of Sciences has announced that the rare chemical jelement, gallium, has been extracted | from minerals found in the Altai | Moufttains of Siberia. Gallium is a |metal which melts in hot weather |at 30 degrees Centigrade or 86 de- grees Fahrenheit. Its boiling point lis nearly 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit which is higher than that mercury, which boils at 675 degrees. |It is therefore more useful than |mercury in the manufacture of | thermometers for use at high tem- |peratures. Gallium is also used in medicine. In sufficient quantity jeould be applied, as mercury has |been applied, to the generation of | electric power by steam, with re sults superior to those achieved with mercury, which in turn has been found vastly more efficient than water for steam generation. The existence of gallium was pre- dicted first in 1869 by the Russian scientist Mendeleeff, famous for his {discovery of the periodic table of hence the name gallium, after the ancient name of France. So far only relatively small quantities of gallium have been available, ex- tracted mainly in Germany and the United States. In 1931 Professor Grinberg of | Leningrad suggested that the zinc Mountains might contain the r element. Spectroscopic analysis of these ores showed the presence of gallium, and treatment yielded a small amount of gallium oxide Professor Grinberg is now leaving for Siberia to determine the most efficient methods of extracting this important metal. Rayon Material Obtained From Aspen Trees A process has been developed at the University of Minnesota which obtains alpha cellulose, a cotton- like substance used in cellophane, rayon and lacquers, from the com- mon aspen tree, better known as “popple” or poplar, which abounds in the cut-over timberlands of Northern Minnesota. According to the scientists who developed the tained at a cost comparable with prevailing commercial prices. A small commercial plant is being set up to determine the exact costs of production, Alpha cellulose is a major raw material in many tion chemical enterprises. At pres- ent two monopolies supply the mar- ket needs, which total 300,000,000 pounds yearly. We can consequently look forward to the purchase of the new process by one of the monop- olies in order to keep it off the market, Chemical Analysis By X-Rays A Swedish chemist, Dr. L. V. Hamos of Stockholm, has discov- ered a new way to analyze metallic Substances. He claims that by hold- ing a piece of metal up to a beam of X-ray it is possible quickly to determine its chemical constituents. Dr. Hamos has built metallic “sandwiches” consisting of paper- like strips of metal piled one on top of |} chemical elements.

The sur- face cot ts of casein pressed into |the paper. This makes possible fine printing and the reproduction of: |delicately worked etchings and | beautifully colored photographs. | Casein is obtained from the curd of milk after the whey has been sep- | arated out. A machine which manufactures | casein in a continuous single proc- {ess and the product of which rivals |the best imported casein has been | developed by F. L. Chappell of | Hobart, N. Y. This is an impor- tant discovery for the printing in- dustry, since for good printing the |casein must have uniform quality. |Up to now the paper mills which |make fine paper almost by the Square mile have found it difficult, to maintain uniformity in their | Surfaces. | In the new process the skim milk jis separated into curd and whey continuously and each chemical step to remove impurities follows in sequences. The finished casein is | claimed to be superior to that made | by older methods. The whey which jis obtained contains lactose, inor- ganic salts and some residual al- |bumin. This is utilized in several ways. It may be evaporated di- {rectly into powder to yield a rich. |food for poultry and stock. Or it |may be fermented to yield lactic |acid.

Strasbourg have reported to the British scientific journal Nati that very young babies furnish their own supplies of Vitamin C, This is the anti-scorbutic substance found in fresh vegetables and fruits, without which grown-ups |cannot live. Vitamin C is manu- | factured in the bodies of infants up to the age of five months.

Her eyes were sunken, and had an angry light in them. “What's the matter, been sick?” he asked. “No. You fooled me. out all about you.” “What are you talking about, Edna?” Cliff stared at her in amazement. “You're a tramp, that’s what you are,” she glowered, and went on to relate Mrs. Porson’s conversa- tion with her mother. Cliff forgot all about having. told Edna that he was the landlady's nephew. He tried to deny it, but that made her angrier and she called him a fool and a liar. He admitted that he had been on the road for a while, but he was through with that now. He was sorry that he had wasted a lot of time knocking around, but he had been young when he started out, and he was trying to make good now. He told her about Harris and all the things he had learned from him, and how they were get- ting ready to demand more money from the bosses which meant he'd soon get a raise in wages and everything would be fine, Etina was silent, He hoped he had mollified her. And the way he put it, she didn’t think he was entirely wrong. At the same time Ma found she felt that he was just a good talker and was trying to put one over on her. She became fright- ened. She couldn’t feel about him the way she had felt before. She was cool when he tried to kiss her, “What's the matter, don’t you like me any more?” Cliff ques- tioned. “I don't know,” .she said, shrug- ging her shoulders. “Oh, come on, forget it, Edna.” Edna looked at him but said nothing. Cliff felt blue. early. He was worried and sleep the whole night. day he had a splitting headache. His le@s were shaky, the shovel kept slipping out if his hands. He felt sick and didn’t go to the meet- ing that night. ® couldn't The next * * Le committee wondered where Cliff could have been. He had never missed a meeting before. There were many important ques- tions to discuss. Cliff was now taking a responsible part in the ac- tivities and Harris was angry at him for being absent, When Cliff showed up the follow- ing day, Harris asked him where he had been. Cliff said that he hadn't come because he had felt sick, But Harris knew that Cliff had a girl and he began to ques- tion him. Cliff found in Harris not. only an organizer but also a friend. He told him of his trouble with Edna. “There is nothing to worry about, Cliff. She'll get over it. If she likes you then its O.

Weber and Nelson and Cottilo were busy talking to the men about or- ganizing. The number of men at- tending the meetings began to grow. But the company got wind of it and the foremen were on the look-out for the leaders. George caught Cottilo and Nelson explaining rather loudly to a group tending to do. They were called into the office and discharged. Some members of the committee the company to put them back to work. Harris said that the issue wasn’t strong enough to get the men to strike. In a few days there appeared a Notice on the gates stating: Due to the depression and financial difficulties the company is forced to declare a temporary reduction in wages of fifteen per cent in all the departments of the MacDermott Wire Works, This announcement spurred things up. The committee met and agreed that the time to call a strike had arrived. There was a disagree- ment as to how to go about it. Herris proposed that they call a meeting of all the men in the shop dy distributing a leaflet. At that meeting a committee should be elected to go to the company and demand that the wage cut be re- scinded. (To be continued.)
