iy ft ESDAY, AP RIL 13, 192 Love Turns ‘Red’ Pale Pink; “Sweet Marie’ Ganz Tells | | - How She Has Been Tamed No Dynamite, Mob Rule or Bitterness in New Creed Outlined by Husband to Be. By Marguerite Dean. Cepertaht, 199, by The Freep Publishing Co, (Te New York Bening World.) ROM Anarchist to good aitizen, from destructionist to constructionist, 5 from the moving spirit of mob rule to a quict belief in a democracy fi that will triumph through the educated recognition of its constitu- tional righte—that is the long road travelled by Maric Ganz—"“swect Maric” and “Tho White Virgin of Rutgers Square,” as the police amd the public chris- ened her several years ago, mvben ehe led hunger riots on the east side, and went to the office of John D. Rocke- feller jr. with a pistol and @ threat to kin. And love has been Marie’ guide on the way back—not te smug Toryism, never that wut to an enlightened lib- eralism, a faith that Ameri- cans can find the way to deal even with profiteers without the use of dynamite, “My pal is beside me,” ends Marie's remarkable autoblography, which she has called “Rebels.” “We have been talking of the days that aro gone—t! @reary days when life seemed 60 terrible and hope- les.” “The past ts dead, Marie," says my pal, a8 be reaches for my hand. ‘Forget it. Think of the future— shining future of our dreams. We are going back into the old fight to Detter the lives of our people, but S—tkere is to be no more violence, no more ivitterness or hate.’ “I bow my head as my hand is Gripped in his.” Nobody cap read “Rebels” without guessing that “my pai” is Marie's literary collaborator, Nat J. Ferber, writer and social worker. Nobody can belp suspecting that romance bas tamed tho revolutionist. “Are you married?” I asked hor, whon I met blue-eyed, youthful “Sweet Maric.” “Not yet,” ‘she answered softly — sho has one of the most beautiful contralto voices I have ever heard. “Not yet—but soon?” I challenged. “Spon,” ghe smiled, with happy simplicity, “He is my sweetheart, Ho was my friend, all those yeara when I was ready for anything, al- thoy’ be never agreed with me, never wanted me to advocate violent methods to the mobs, to threaten to kill men tke Mr. Rockefeller. We used to have such arguments! But he stood by me. And it is perfectly true that his opinions did more to in- fluence me than anything else. I met him in 1914 when he was with the Mayor's Committee for the Unemployed. At the protest meeting in Union Square against the imprison- ment of Frank Tannenbaum he was beside me, just to protect me, for he did not ‘@e that anything could be gained by rioting. In the nick of time “he saved my life by pulling me away ee A SZ Orreanenona ‘orderly, not to stir them to disorde “He tried to keep me from going to prison, told me'I could count on him for anything, was in court when I was sentenced for disorderly conduct, and almost broke down. He was one ‘of my few friends who remained faith- ful and came to the gate to welcome me when I was released from prigon.” “But you did things for him!" I re- minded her. “I know it is he who speaks in ‘Rebels,’ in the chapter which tells how you worked with him to save children’s lives during the in- fantile paralysis epidemic, and how you nursed him back to health when he was broken down through exhaus- on.” Marie Ganz smiled, half shyly. “It was then I began to realize what he meant to me,” she admitted, “and how |empty the world would be without him. We have been engaged since that summer of 1916. And when I led the bas at women to ask for relief at City Hall, in 1917, 1 tried to keep tl you see, I was becoming conyinced that Nat's point of view was right. “When he went to Washington to report Congress's declaration of war I went with him as his secretary, Then I felt, for the first time, that I had a country! All through the war I did my bit with him on war work commit- tees. He wanted to enlist, but was disqualified for physical reasons. We shall be married in a few weeks and together work to make the world bet- ter for our people. We love—and at hie we have the same philosophy of ‘c.” “And that is?” I asked this girl of the ghetto, once the associate of dyna- miters. “That the people of this country, once they are educated to understand their power, can give themselvei square deal peacefully and legally, declared Marie Ganz. “That, just as the people went to Albany and curbed the landlords, they ean make laws to control the other profiteers. That vio- lence against even the most tyrann from the hoofs of the mounted police who charged us. individuals does no good. That WE, the people, ARE the State!" The Colored Girls’ Club By Sophie Irene Loeb, Copyright, 1920, by The Prem Publishing Co. (The New York Pvening World.) (COMMUNICATION comes to me frem the New York Urban League. The function of this organization is: “Social service among negroes.” At present their efforts are di- rected in the in- terest of Ameri- canization, One of the interesting innovations in 2. this connection is Berwin weravem: ine promotion of a club house for colored girls. This movement ig to be launched to-mor- row night. ‘A committee of negro women in Harlem recently organized to form a non-sectarian, self-swporting, self- overning club of colored girls, un- ‘attached to any organization, and ‘4, numbering approximately 16,000. ‘The programme of this club will be directed to make colored girls know and appreciate America, and will give them wholesome recreation. The committee is giving these girls a party on Wednesday, April 14, to tell! them of the plan, and to organize at Public School No, 89, 135th Street and Lenox-Avemue, Once organized, the club wiA put forth every effort to get a elu house for the gir! This is @ move in the right dij tion, and should be encouraged. ‘There is no more healthy move than roung people to gather together an wholesome conditions, not only in the interest of social welfare and civie progress but for the pleasure of meeting each other, ‘Girls’ clubs as a general proposi- tion, carried on with good people be- hind them, have perhaps done more to develop the girls toward better womanhood than any other agency. > I know many girls who havo sut- fered from endicss loneliness, and had little in their Hives to promote iness, until they bave of this kind. ave made friendwtip and eapociations that have stood them in cena good stead, not only in passing. hours that would otherwise have been lone- ly, but in changing their positions in work to their resulting benefit. Not only this, but such clubs have played a big part in the matter of character building. Young people who are constantly confronted with mem- bers of their family, and who do not have occasion to make friends and meet other people outside the family circle, lose much that is worth while in the realm of human relationship. ‘Their finer sensibilities and methods of conduct have very little stimula- tion, as compared to the great benefit of coming in contact with strangers and cultivating friendships, T belleve wherever possible a girl should join a club of this kind. The, colored girls of this city should we come this movement and give it the support by becoming members. Many letters come to me also from the girl who comes to the city to ob- tain work. Many such girls find it Gifficult to get acquainted and are very miserable accordingly. They seek comradeship, but fear making acquaintances in a large city. Such clubs are a godsend to girls thus situated. I know of a young woman who came to this city and lived here two years and knew no per- son except the landlady in the house where she roomed. She w. did worker and was adyance position, but she could not stand the strain of seeing only strangers. She went back home to North Curo- lina, and had to work for considerably less and let go the opportunity she craved only because she was so un- OagRy in being unacquainted. here is nothing as lonesome as be- ing alone in a crowded city. Tam acquainted with another young woman who lived with her mother and two brothers. She was a stenog- rapher and a successful one. Her two brothers were rather sel- fish and sought their amusement without considering their sister. She rarely went anywhere and her mother became alarmed when the girl actual- ly grew melancholy. The doctor said her.one trouble was in not meeting girls of her own age and having something of interest be- sides her work. Thies girl joined a rie’ chub and became a “different come tn touch with each other for their mutual Good clubs are important institu! LEAVE HIN HONE. HIDE HIM IN THE » CLOSET Poor Little Income!
