Youth Vieus
By HARRY CANNES

Liebkneeht Day-Day of New Tasks.
international Liebknecht Day will
soon be celebrated in this country.
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxem-
berg, leaders Of the German Sparta
cists (Communists) were brutality
murdered Jan. 10, 1919, by the Kali
ser's officers, with the connivance of
the German Socialist ministers.
These same Social-Democrat have
since betrayed the German workers
in more ways than one.
All over the world, on Liebknecht
Day, the enlightened working youth
pay homage to the work of Karl
Liebknecht in behalf of the young
toilers. It is not a day for mourn
ing; but rather it is day Of ac-
counting, of setting new and more
difficult tasks before the young.
In the United States, Liebknecht
Day is celebrated under the auspices
of the Young Workers League of
America. The new tasks to be
stressed is the widening and the
intensifying of the Hands off Work
ers' Germany" campaign and the
gathering of funds for the relief of
the starving German workers and
their families. Then, too, the anti
military activities in this country
receive push on Liebknecht Day.

Shop Unit Contest On

Organization on the basis of shop
units (also known as shop nuclei)
is proving to be the direct road to
mass revolutionary organization Of
adult and youth in Germany. Of
course, conditions play their very i'm
portant part.
From England we get the news
that large number of shop units
are being formed by the young Brit
ish toilers in the steel mills, ship
yards and coal mines
4. t Tie fourth 55;,-. se ss;c &c &c
the Young Communist international,
held last summer, there arose YER
bal contest as to which country was
the more suitable for the immediate
organization of shop units. the
United States or Great Britain.
In practice Great Britain is win
ming. The Young Communist Lea
que there has by actual count more
shop units than there exist in the
United States. BY no trick of ex-
PLANTATION can the members of the
Young Workers League be said to
be asleep, tho, the work of shop unit
organization is progressing fast
over a very wide territory. Our
field being larger, we will undoubt-
edly produce a bigger crop than the
British Y. c. L.-tho we might need
more time for cultivation.

Religionists Admit They're Bad Eggs
Anti-religious offensives take up
a goodly share of the time of the
Young Communist League of Russia.
Seeped in superstition, the Russian
peasant makes a difficult pupil, and
the youth in Russia are the edu-
Gators.
Religion is a problem that is not
peculiar to the Russians. All rev.
dictionary organizations must CONT
ually let down the cudgel with a
smart tap on the head of this ally
nitaiism. Especially the youth
should perform this function.
In speaking of religion it brings
smile to the face of "unbelievers,"
when they hear their religionist en-
emies admit (this is from "The Vine
yard of the East" a paper for the
devout), that "The Christian people
do not live Christ-like lives. In fact
their lives are no better than those
of the Pagans and unbelievers, and,
alas sometimes even worsew Only,
the cloak of religion is supposed to
excuse their missteps.

COOLIDGE LEADING
MICHIGAN issues

DETROIT, Sept. 9.-Coolidge po-
licies and prohibition were the chief
issues as Michigan Republicans
went to the polls today to choose
between Senator James A. Couzens
candidate for denomination and
Federal Judge Arthur j. Tuttle, who
is sponsored by most of the regu-
lar Republican leaders and the anti
saloon league.
Gov. Alex j. Groesbeck, seeking
a third term election against six
opponents, was also the storm cen
ter of red hot political fight and
several congressman had contests on
their hands but Couzens' controver-
sy with Secretary Mellon and his
Independent attitude in congress
have made his fight for reelection
of national as well as statewide in
terest.
Senator Couzens has announced
his intention of voting the Cool
idge- Dawes ticket but he continues
to insist on his right to use his
own judgment in congress. He will
be loyal to the president and the
party as long as they are loyal to
the people, he says.
The anti-saloon league and other
dry organizations are behind Judge
Tuttle and are fighting Couzens
with considerable zest because Of
the senator's advocacy Of old fash
ioned beer and his emphatic state
ments that prohibition has failed to
prohibit.

TrOutdale Poor
Farm in Oregon

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 9-Some
times they re poor and sometimes
they re not so down and out.
That is the conclusion of d. ID.
Jackson, Superintendent Of the

sumed names and other times buy
articles after hiding money from
the officials.
A recent instance came up when
n man named Albert Treadwell had
$50 sent to him at TrOutdale under
another name. When the postmas-
ter refused to give it to him, Tread
dell threatened to wreck the post
office. The next day he disappear
ed from the farm.
Superintendent Jackson says he
wants to put this type of takers
to work on the Troutdale street
cleaning department as punishment.
