Various
Literature, Modern -- 20th century -- Periodicals
BY LEONID ANDREYEV
Boards 40c postpaid.
Author of "The Seven Who Were Hanged."
(Authorized translation by Thomas Seltzer.)
A play in one act, replete with subtle and clever satire.
The Thresher's Wife
BY HARRY KEMP
Boards 40c postpaid.
A narrative poem of great strength and individuality. Undoubtedly
his greatest poem. Full of intense dramatic interest.
Chants Communal
BY HORACE TRAUBEL
Boards $1.00 net; $1.10 postpaid.
Inspirational prose pieces fired by revolutionary idealism and
prophetically subtle in their vision. The high esteem in which
Traubel's work is held is attested by the following unusual
commendations:
Jack London: "His is the vision of the poet and the voice of the
poet."
Clarence Darrow: "Horace Traubel is both a poet and a
philosopher. No one can say anything too good about him or his
work."
George D. Herron: "It is a book of the highest value and beauty
that Horace Traubel proposes to give us, and I can only hope that
it will be read as widely and appreciatively as it more than
deserves to be; for it is with a joy that would seem extravagant,
if I expressed it, that I welcome 'Chants Communal.'"
Not Guilty
A Defence of the Bottom Dog
BY ROBERT BLATCHFORD
Cloth 50c. Paper 25c.
A humanitarian plea, unequalled in lucidity and incontrovertible
in its logic.
Our Irrational Distribution of Wealth
BY BYRON C. MATHEWS
Cloth $1.00 net.
The author undertakes to show that the agencies which are used in
distributing the products of industry and are responsible for the
extremes in the social scale have never been adopted by any
rational action, but have come to be through fortuitous
circumstances and are without moral basis. The wage system, as a
means of distribution, is utterly inadequate to measure the
workers' share. The source of permanent improvement is found in
social ownership, which transfers the power over distribution
from the hands of those individuals who now own the instruments
of production to the hands of the people.
