JEAN
V.
DUBOIS
Lt.
-
Col.
,
M.
I.
,
rtd
.
The
signature
was
as
amazing
as
the
letter
itself
.
Old
Sour
Mouth
a
short
colonel
?
Why
,
our
regimental
commander
was
only
a
major
.
Mr.
Dubois
had
never
used
any
sort
of
rank
around
school
.
We
had
supposed
(
if
we
thought
about
it
at
all
)
that
he
must
have
been
a
corporal
or
some
such
who
had
been
let
out
when
he
lost
his
hand
and
had
been
fixed
up
with
a
soft
job
teaching
a
course
that
did
n't
have
to
be
passed
,
or
even
taught
--
just
audited
.
Of
course
we
had
known
that
he
was
a
veteran
since
History
and
Moral
Philosophy
must
be
taught
by
a
citizen
.
But
an
M.
I.
?
He
did
n't
look
it
.
Prissy
,
faintly
scornful
,
a
dancing-master
type
--
not
one
of
us
apes
.
But
that
was
the
way
he
had
signed
himself
.
I
spent
the
whole
long
hike
back
to
camp
thinking
about
that
amazing
letter
.
It
did
n't
sound
in
the
least
like
anything
he
had
ever
said
in
class
.
Oh
,
I
do
n't
mean
it
contradicted
anything
he
had
told
us
in
class
;
it
was
just
entirely
different
in
tone
.
Since
when
does
a
short
colonel
call
a
recruit
private
"
comrade
"
?
When
he
was
plain
"
Mr.
Dubois
"
and
I
was
one
of
the
kids
who
had
to
take
his
course
he
hardly
seemed
to
see
me
--
except
once
when
he
got
me
sore
by
implying
that
I
had
too
much
money
and
not
enough
sense
.
(
So
my
old
man
could
have
bought
the
school
and
given
it
to
me
for
Christmas
--
is
that
a
crime
?
It
was
none
of
his
business
.
)
He
had
been
droning
along
about
"
value
,
"
comparing
the
Marxist
theory
with
the
orthodox
"
use
"
theory
.
Mr.
Dubois
had
said
,
"
Of
course
,
the
Marxian
definition
of
value
is
ridiculous
.
All
the
work
one
cares
to
add
will
not
turn
a
mud
pie
into
an
apple
tart
;
it
remains
a
mud
pie
,
value
zero
.
By
corollary
,
unskillful
work
can
easily
subtract
value
;
an
untalented
cook
can
turn
wholesome
dough
and
fresh
green
apples
,
valuable
already
,
into
an
inedible
mess
,
value
zero
.
Conversely
,
a
great
chef
can
fashion
of
those
same
materials
a
confection
of
greater
value
than
a
commonplace
apple
tart
,
with
no
more
effort
than
an
ordinary
cook
uses
to
prepare
an
ordinary
sweet
.
"
These
kitchen
illustrations
demolish
the
Marxian
theory
of
value
--
the
fallacy
from
which
the
entire
magnificent
fraud
of
communism
derives
--
and
to
illustrate
the
truth
of
the
common-sense
definition
as
measured
in
terms
of
use
.
"
Dubois
had
waved
his
stump
at
us
.
"
Nevertheless
--
wake
up
,
back
there
!
nevertheless
the
disheveled
old
mystic
of
Das
Kapital
,
turgid
,
tortured
,
confused
,
and
neurotic
,
unscientific
,
illogical
,
this
pompous
fraud
Karl
Marx
,
nevertheless
had
a
glimmering
of
a
very
important
truth
.
If
he
had
possessed
an
analytical
mind
,
he
might
have
formulated
the
first
adequate
definition
of
value
...
and
this
planet
might
have
been
saved
endless
grief
.
