...wrote you recently that I could attend to the renewal of my subscription to your magazine on my return from Europe in September. I write now to say that I shall not renew. Your bitterly partisan and malicious misrepresentation of the Prayer Book Question in England & of the Anglo-Catholic party, have quite decided me in having nothing more to do with a paper that is so one-sided. Neither Anglicans or Romans worship 'elements,' but our Lord Jesus Christ therein enshrined. Your reference to certain clubs was unworthy and dastardly. Opposition does not worry...

...Senator Moses' chief duty would be to aid in the Congressional campaign, with special reference to the seven Senate seats held by Democrats between Maryland and Maine. Resilient, Senator Moses declared that he was satisfied. "Serious differences are sometimes characteristic of strong-minded men," he said. "I should say that just now harmony is at least a foot thick hereabouts." And off he dashed to Dublin, N. H., to enlist the services of Col. George Harvey, publicist-extraordinary to all Republican nominees since 1916 (before which he helped "make" Woodrow Wilson). Puzzlers for the cause of so much confusion...

...McLeod's Michigan, needless to say, has more representation coming to it. Since 1910, Michigan's population has grown with its industries, notably motors. California will get three more seats. Other gainers will be as follows: Connecticut, i; New Jersey, i; North Carolina, i; Ohio, 2; Texas, i; Washington, i. The adjustment will involve enlarging the unit of representation rather than swelling the ranks of the already cumbersome House. Instead of one Representative to every 211,877 of population, the latter figure will be considerably increased. This, of course, will take seats away from several States, as follows...

...question of preserving the dictatorship of the proletariat, won in October 1917. "We will not surrender the October Revolution to the politics of Stalin-the entire essence of which is contained in these few words: . . . capitalism on the installment plan. . . . "The proletariat thinks slowly, but it thinks strong. . . . [We say to Stalin] your persecutions, expulsions, arrests, will make our platform the most popular and the closest and dearest documents of the international workers' movement. Expel us. You will not stop the victory of the Opposition-the victory of the revolutionary unity of our party and the Communist Internationale...

...fits, better than most, the gum-chewers' idea of a movie queen. They can call her a senorita because she has one-half Spanish blood in her. They can say she has famed "It" because she has often appeared on the screen without very many clothes (Male and Female). They can suspect her of fickle loves (Sprinter Charles Paddock). They know she is ath-a-let-tic by the way she bounces around on the screen. She may be classified somewhere between a capable actress and a capable clown...
