Creating New World.
Small wonder that the joy, the en-
thushsm of the Russian youth ex-
ceeds that of the youth of all the
world for it is joy and an enthusi-
asm that arises out of a conscious
ness of their importance in creating
new world. The youthful guards
men of the Russian proletariat are
the guarantee that world capitalism
can never reconQuer the Soviet gov
eminent. They are the guarantee that
the rising generation has thrown OF
for all time to come the shackles Of
serfdom and wage slavery. They stand
as guide and an inspiration to the
working class youth of all the world
to follow in their footsteps.
For every year that the Soviet gov
eminent has existed there has grown
up behind it a. million new ardent
supporters. From Vladivostok to Len
ingrad and from Murmansk to Tiflis
the Young Communist League and the
Young Leninfsts are to be found, train
ing, organizing, educating their mem
bers and their supporters to become
able and efficient citizen-workers in
the United Socialist Soviet States.
The first seven years of struggle are
past. The critical period is over.
The Youthful Guardsmen will see to
it that the future will make up for
the misery, the ignorance, the brutRli-
ty inflicted upon the masses Of Rus
SLAMS for centuries.

ing in Russia. There they want their
children both seen and heard. AS
consequence, have seen any mum.
Der of good sincere Communists from
other countries almost shocked at the
forwardness, OF as some Of them put
it, 'the audacity' of these youngsters.
The environment under which these
comrades hpd been forced to live the
whole OF their lives made it almost
impossible for them to accept the
idea of children talking as equals to
their elders. But the youth of Rus
STA, freed from the old restraint, is
developing at an almost unbelievable
rate. Time and again have wit
messed long and serious discussions on
political problems of the day by
groups of kiddies ranging from nine or
ten to fifteen years Of age. 1t is no
longer an unusual thing over there.
The backbone of the Soviet govern
ment is the Communist Party but
back of that party stands a Young
Communist League with member
ship almost a million strong. This is
a mighty army of young workers rang
ing in age from Is or Is to 20 years of
age. Most of them had no part in the
earlier struggles of 1917 or 1918. They
have developed into man and woman
hood under this new workers gov
ernment-and there are none so loyal
to it as just these young Communists
who know that theirs is the actual
task of building a new social order.
And back of the Komsomols stand the
Young Leninists, hundreds Of thou.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-11-05

II is always an exhilirating sight to
see a mass of young people enjoying
themselves. The spirit and enthusiasm
at a football game here or in Great
Britain, the steadied motion Of the
yOung athletes of Germany or Sweden
as they execute their maneuvers are
interesting and enjoyable to everyone;
but these in no way compare with
the almost limitless flow Of life and
laughter and goodfellowship to be
found at any gathering of the Russian
Komsomols young Communists).
Whereas the whole trend of the edu-
cation given in all capitalist countries
is one wherein the individual is taught
to think first and foremost in terms
of his own success, in Russia it is the
opposite. There the students are
taught to regard society as a unit of
which they are parts. They are de-
veloped so that their own advance
ment and success is measured in
terms Of their ability to contribute to
the development and advancement Of
the entire community. Social science
becomes a part of the training Of chill
dren from the time when they enter
school, but It does not cease when
school days are over but is carried
on in the workshops, the mines and
the Offices. Furthermore, there is at
no time made the hard and fast line
of distinction between manual and
mental work such as we find turnout
the rest of the world. The work schools,
which are being established all over

RUSSIAN PARTY

Having acquiesced in the existence OF

ments are hoping for slackening OF
the proIetarian rule, for disagree.
ments, dissentions and struggles with
in the party itself, as this would in
crease the chances of some kind Of
democratic" (bourgeois) order in the
future. A deviation in the direction OF
so-called democracy, a deviation from
the tried principles of proletarian die
tatorship under the leadership Of a
monolithic Communist Party is, there
fore considered by the party not as
difference of opinion but as conces-
sion to the petty bourgeois classes
which are still numerically strong in
the Soviet Republic. Only Bolshevism
will carry the revolution to victor
ious conclusion.
Strength in Unity With the Masses
1--WE, the non-partisan workers, are
with you. Together we shall work to
make our Workers Republic Com
munist country" "Lenin, our great
leader, is dead, but his party lives and
will continue his work. We shall fol
low it's lead" I'VE, plain workers Of
the shop, greet your congress and are
certain that you will make decisions
to the best interests Of the working
class" I'VE have come from far
away district to tell you that you must
unfinchingly follow the path Of Len
inism, for only in this way shall we
win" Long live the Party Of Ilyitch!
Long live our victory the world overt"
In these words non-partisan work
/ ers, delegates from factories and
plants greeted the Sth Congress of the
r. G. P. at which the writer had the
privilege to be present. In these
words, the intimate unity, nay, the
sameness Of the working class and
the Communist Party found its ex-
preston.
The Russian Communist Party is
strong with the strength Of the work
ing masses.

Children Both Heard and Seen.
The discrimination against the
youth which exists in every other
country is not to be found in Rus
STA. The political barriers which pre-
vent all under II years Of ago to vote
lin many countries the age limit is
% or rs years. does not exist in Rus
ala. Every worker there irrespective
of his age, can participate in all cleo
lions. The barriers set up by the
trade unions in all other countries
against the admittance Of young work
ers do not exist in Russia. Quite to
the contrary, the youth have their
special representatives on all commit
tees of the unions to see to 1t that
the interests of the young workers are
especially looked after.
In every respect the young people
of Russia are trained in such a fash
ion that they will be prepared to state
their views and opinions on all mat
ters. In their schools, in their clubs,
everywhere, they are expected to gov
ern themselves as much as they pos
sibly can. They are trained to speak
up. not to hold their tongues. The

Honesty, integrity, clean living are

munist Members are being expelled
for laxity, corruption, favoritism, for
hob-nobbing with bourgeois elements,
for extravaganza, naughty attitude to-
wards subordinates, an inclination to

This is workers republic, the party
SAYS, and a member who cannot live
the live of worker may not stay in
the party.
A maximum Of earnings has been
fixed by the party for its members.
What Communist receives above the
maximum must be turned over to the
treasury OF the party. Last summer
the maximum which no member Of
the party could overstep was 100 roub-
les monthly ($1oo.)
1t is a privilege to be Communist
In Russia. 1t is a strenuous task to
be q Communist in Russia. The party
demands, and takes, all a mans en-

Communist must set an example for
the rest Of mankind. Those who fan

African Ruler DeUises
Language of His ODn

A few years ago Njoya, king of
Foumban, in the Cameroons, became
jealous Of the particularly good set OF
secret languages Of neighboring tribes,
and invented from French, English
and German words a code tongue Of
his own which is reserved for the ex-
elusive use of the cabinet" and upper
administrative officials.
The interesting feature of this state
language, which was discovered and
studied by a Frenchman, Lieutenant
ClapOt, Is that, instead OF meaning
their usual equivalent. the European
words have entirely different code sig
nificatlons. La mission" for instance,
means ito see," and franc" means
"the king" "Ordnung" means we"
"savantr means IAN egg" "lemOn"
means "a hill" left" means which,
and "EnglandS means "a head."-Man-
chester Guardian.

Ancienfs BeiieDed Mans
Glory Was His Beard

There was a deep-rooted belief
among the ancient peoples of the East
that. mans glory was his beard
Compulsory shaving and the close
cropping of hair were signs Of degra-
iation. This Is borne out by Assyrian
sculptures. which always show kings
with boards and long hair and slaves
with close-cropped hair and clean
shaven faces.
The Egyptians. however. had differ
ent ideas. They considered that hair
was a source OF dirt and shaved both
face and head. Their slaves and serv-
ants were compelled 10 do the same
The early Greeks and Romans
shaved OFF their boards because they
gave the enemy a good hold in hand-to-
hand fightingl II Is recorded that Al
exander the Great ordered his soldiers
10 shave for this reason.

to shave Off the beard at the age OF
