Boys In Australia

SYDNEY, N. S. W., May 9.-(By A.
p. Mail) Disclosures by the minister
of justice regarding propaganda alleg-
ed to be distributed among children
by Socialist Sunday Schools have
caused great discussion throughout
New South Wales.
The minister quoted the following
extract from one of the school text
books as an indication of the lessons:
"Teacher-Can a boy Socialist be a
Boy Scout?
"Scholar-No, Comrade.
"Teacher-Why cannot a boy So
cialist be a Boy Scout?
"Scholar-Because a Boy Scout has
to salute the Union Jack.
"Teacher-Why must not a boy So
cialist salute the Union Jack?
"Scholar-Because the Union Jack
is an emblem of oppression n slaV-
cry"
One of the ten commandments
taught in the schools, according to
the Minister, is-"Thou shalt not be a
patriot, for a patriot is an interna-
tional black-leg."
The following verse was quoted by
the Minister from n of the hymns
he said are sung in the schools:
Dividends, Rent and Interest,
"Chicanery, Lies and Brag-
"These are the Gods of Empire
Their symbol-the British flag"
The Minister declared that these
Sunday schools are held in Sydney
and some of the suburbs, in the Matt
land c~oal-felds, at Broken Hills and
elsewhere. He said that he has or
dered further Investigations with a
view toward obtaining legislation to

minutes were ready for the parade to
the cemeteries.
I'VE first paraded to the Catholic
church and decorated the graves with
flowers OF many varieties. Next we
marched down to the Japanese Gene
tary and dropped flowers on the
graves Last of all we marched to
the Hawaiian cemetery and dropped
flowers on all the graves, then we
paraded back to headquarters; here
we all stood at attention and pledged
allegiance to the American flag, scout
oath and law and all sang the Star
Spangled Banner.
This concluded the program for
the day.

Notes

On Decoration Day practically all
the troops on Maui took some part
either in the regular celebrations that
took place such as that at Lahaina
or they held ceremonies of their own
in the cemeteries.
This with the respect to the Ameri-
car flag is one of the most important
duties of a scout. Makawao had a
number of scouts at the cemetery to
assist Mr.. Clark owe the graves
with ferns, cleaning up the grounds
etc. Then the troop arrived in a body
went through their regular cerem my.
Alter finishing here they proceeded
to Catholic cemetery and went thru
the same. At Waikiki a few scouts
from Troop 8 and the full MEMBER
ship from Troop 10, visited all the
cemeteries and dropped flowers on the
slaves.
