Lies About Russian Children.
The Soviet Government is not sup
pressing any news about conditions
in Russia. The reports state that
there is still certain amount of suf-
fering among the children, that there
are still scars left by the various oc-
currences of the last ten years in
Russia, such as blockade by the CAPT
talist powers and invasions by for
eign armies or attacks by counter-rev-
dictionary armies financed by the cap
italist governments. Hoover and the
American government with the aid of
the counter-revolutionary general
Yudenitch, are in part responsible for
the remnant of suffering that is still
left.
But the capitalist press is bowling
about naturalization of children in
Soviet Russia, about the neglect of
children, about Soviet Russia being
over-run with homeless waits. This
is not out of pity for the children,
but out of hatred for the first work
ers' republic. Now that the workers
all over the world are clamoring for
the recognition of Soviet Russia the
kept press is intensifying its cam

UP FOR AUTHOR
OF SHIFT SYSTEM
Fake Teacher : Liberal
Supports Ettinger.

Especial 20 The Daily Worker)
NEW YORK, April 22.-With an
oratorial appeal for the maintenance
Of the merit system" Abraham LET
kowitz, of Teachers Union No. 5, so
called Progressive" and handy-man
of the Socialist Party, put across a
resolution before the Central Trades
and Labor Council, indorsing the re-
election of William L. Ettinger, a
Tammany Democrat, as Superintend-
ent Of Schools of the City of New
York The resolution was presented
by Mr.. Lefkowitz, as part Of the re-
port Of the Committee on Education.
He was the only spokesman on the
resolution. There was no further dis
cussion and no objection, and it was
therefore declared carried.
Ettinger Plan Like Gary's
William L. Ettinger, is well-known
in this city and thruout the coun-
try as the initiator Of the Ettinger
Plan, half brother of the notorious
Gary Plan. Under the Ettinger Plan,
the city and the real estate sharks
save a tremendous amount of mo-
ney which would ordinarily have to
be spent on new schools. Instead
Of a seat for every child, we have
but one seat for two and sometimes
more children. The schools are run
in shifts, like factory, at all hours
of the day, whether the time is suit
able for study or not. Labor has
consistently opposed every attempt
to limit or curtail educational op-
portunity. The extension of the "pla-
toon" system was recently condemn
ed before the Chicago Federation of
Labor. And yet we find labor man,
and so-called progressive, in support
OF the founder of the Ettinger plan.
A Prime Red Batter
Mr.. Ettinger was Superintendent
of Schools at the time of the expul-
sion Of Samuel Schmallhausen, Ben
jamin Glassberg, Henry Schneer, Ray
Ragozin and Thomas Mufson from
the public schools, for their opinions.
Not only has Ettinger made no move
to restore these teachers to their po-
sitions, but he has recently declared
himself opposed to the granting of a
license to David Berenberg. On the
ground that he is a Socialist.
In climbing on the Ettinger band
wagon, Lefkowitz has practically
turned his back upon his fellow Union
members who were expelled for their
ideas.
Some weeks ago Ettinger spoke in
support Of a bylaw under which
teachers might be dismissed for con
duct unbecoming a teacher" So
broad and sweeping is this provision
that II completely does away with
any possible security OF tenure.
Mr.. Ettinger's term expires on
April 30. He is having hard fight
for reelection on account OF a dis.
pute within the Democratic machine.
He has been fishing for labor's sup
port for a long time and Lefkowitz
has brought home the bacon"

islation.
For Farm-Labor Party.
An Executive Committee of five was
elected to plan the local campaign,
which is to include the holding of
mass meetings of the language groups
as well as a big joint protest in
which all will unite. In order to
make the protest as forceful as pos
sible, the council voted unanimously
to participate actively in the agitation
for the formation of farmer-labor
party in this state and turnout the
nation. This places the groups repre-
scented squarely behind the movement
for an independent political party OF
the industrial and agricultural pro
ducers as the most effective means of
protection against such discriminatory
laws.
Hit Registration Plan.
The resolution to the Council points
for the filing of photographs of immi-
grants at Washington, would lead to
the introduction of a nationwide regis
tration and espionage system. BY a
"joker' in another paragraph this
measure would require the alien to
prove his innocence of charges made
against him by immigration officials,
thus reversing the whole basis of our
legal procedure. The proposed legis-
lation is also attacked on the ground
that it would permit the revival of the
contract labor system and because of
the wide exercise of discretionary
power granted consular officers a.
broad in their certifcation of immi-
grants.
State FL. Convention Coming.
The resolution, besides calling on
the foreign-born to aid the movement
for independent workingclass political
action, endorses the call for state
convention on May 81 to establish a
farmer-labor party in this state and
similarly endorses the call for the
June II convention at ST. Paul.
