Last week one of the bypaths along the proletarian road wound to a temporary terminus in the Eagles Club Auditorium at Kenosha, Wis. Assembled there, in a confused and earnest clot, were 150 delegates to the 21st national convention of the Socialist Party. Among them few were more confused, none was more earnest than their three-time candidate for the Presidency of the U. S., grey Norman Thomas...
...Pins & Needles, the revue produced by the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union, is a wistful number called Sunday in the Park, depicting the tribulations of the proletariat when it deserts New York's teeming streets for its teeming parks. A man who enjoys such simple proletarian pleasures is former Garment-Cutter David Dubinsky, president of I.L.G.W.U.

A hard drinker, suspicious, temperamental, French became jealous of a young boarder, accused his wife of infidelity, made the boarder dance at the point of a gun. After the divorce Harry French went through a kind of proletarian purgatory: jobs slipped through his fingers, money went for liquor, strikes got him in trouble, his daughters by his second wife died. Moroseness drove him to unforgivable railroad sins: abandoning his train in the middle of a run; deliberately tying up traffic until three freights and two passenger trains were...
