YOUNG
WORKERS ELECT
new COMMITTEE
Issue Leaflets for the
Working Youth

The singing of the "International"
marked the opening of the 4th semi
annual convention of the Young
Workers League of Chicago. Fifty
regular delegates and several fra
ternal delegates from the Indepen-
dent Young Peoples Socialist League
and Workers Party of America
attended. Manuel Gomez, repre-
sented Local Chicago of the Workers
Party.
The reporter for the Junior Sec
ton of the Y. w. L., Rose Cohen, went
into a thoro discussion of its activi-
ties showing how, in some schools,
they were successful in combating the
religious propaganda which is fed
to the little tots. Since the organ
ization of the Junior Sections last
May 1923, they have been able to
publish fine monthly organ, "Tne
Young Comrade."
Martin Abern, National Secretary
of they. w. L. of America discussed
at length the campaigns which lie
ahead of the Y. w. L. and the neces-
sary tactics to derive the greatest
benefit from these campaigns, among
them being Child Labor, organization
of the League along shop unit form
and the unionization of Youth Labor.
Tho Industrial Organizer described
the efforts Of the Y. w. L. towards or
itself along shop model
lines. The League in Chicago has
been quite successful in this task.
two shop nuclei and one
school nuclei has been established.
The Educational Director called the
attention of the delegates to the sue
cess of the plan of education which
would build our league on a firm
foundation. In his outline of the
work, he encouraged members to
speak before branches on subjects
which affect the young workers.
Then followed reports on Liter
ature, Research, Sports, Press, Chi
dren, Finances, Social and other ac-
5ivities which demonstrates thst the
Chicago Y. w. L. has made real pro-
gress toward the organization of the
working youth Of Chicsgo.

TELLS
HOW AMERICANS
HELP RUSSIANS
Sees DAILY Worker"
Power for Recognition
By JACOB S. POToFsKY
Sec'y-Treas. r. A. |. c.

am glad to send a line to THE
DAILY WORKER. I am interested
specially in the outright position your
paper promises to take for the re-
cognition of Soviet Russia and the
publication of the facts concerning
the real conditions in that country.
The Russian-American Industrial
Corporation, labor corporation de-
dicated to the task of rendering
ECONOMIC aid to the workers Of Rus
STA bespeaks the interest and active
support of all "Worker" readers in
its efforts for the industrial recon
struction of Russia.
The R. A. l. c. needs the help of
every American worker who believes
in the recognition OF Soviet Russia.
For recognition without practical and
material help to Russia's reviving in
dustries would be empty and mean
ingless. With or without de lure
recognition, however, the R. A. |. c.
way of helping Russia is workable.
The needle trade unionists in Petro-
grad, Moscow, Mimi Novgorod, Ka-
Fan, Kharkow, deeply appreciate the
assistance we have given and will
continue to give so long as they stand
in need Of industrial credits.
The clothing shops of Russia are
efficient working units and their pro-
duction during the past year has been
a surprise even to the most friendly
and sanguine observers. Thanks to
their competent organization and the
equipment they have been able to
purchase with the credits we have
sent the average quality of the work
done by the Russian workers is now
equal and even superior to that done
in any other continental factories.
The real wages of the workers are
steadily rising.
American workers who have been
searching for an ideal and effective
medium through which to express
their friendship for the New Russia
should not lose sight of the oppor-
tunities opened by r. A. l. C. To be-
come a partner in Soviet Russia's in
dustrial recovery by investing $40 or
more is privilege which no worker
friendly to Russia can afford to pass
by.
The lines of communication be-
tween American and Russia are more
and more direct; the road is opening.
We are proud to have participated in
the job of making real and sub
stantial the relations between one
group of Russian workers and their
comrades in the factories and on the
farms Of America.

PETITIONS URGE
AMNESTY FOR 54
NEGRO SOLDIERS
10000 Signatures Are
Already Listed
lspecIal to aThe paiIy workerul


NEW YORK-The National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Colored
People here announces that 10000
signatures have been gathered for a
petition to be submitted to President
Coolidge, demanding a pardon for the
81 members of the oath u S. infan-
try, still imprisoned in Leavenworth
penitentiary for their implication in
the Houston, Texas, riot of 1917.
The petition reminds the president
that 10 of the Negroes charged with
share in that riot were hanged
without a review of their cases. 1t
is remembered that the riot was pre-
cipitated after the colored soldiers
had been made the victims of insults
and violence. Warden w. /. Biddle
declares that the men have been ex-
emplary members of the Leavenworth
colony and indorses the efforts being
made to secure their liberation.
Americas annual toll of race riots
and lynching bees is summed up in a
report issued by the association.
Serious race clashes occurred in five
towns during the year, it is stated,
the most bitter conflict being enacted
in Rosewood, Fla, where five Negroes
and two whites were killed in the
encounter. Other riots occurred in
Los Angeles, Blanford, Ind, Brad
dock and Philadelphia, Penn.

SUPPRESS "INPRECORR"

After an interruption of some
weeks, caused by the suppression Of
the Communist Party and its press
in Germany, 'Inprecorr" (Interna-
tional Press Correspondence is now
being published in Vienna.
When Inprecorr ceased publica-
ton, the loss was felt keenly be-
cause it is impossible to keep in
touch with the international move
ment without Inprecorr, which is
the most valuable source of inter-
national information. Without In
rrecorr we were practically cut off.
1t is fortunate that it has resumed
publication.
The new address is:

Subscription rates to the Inprc-
corr remain as heretofore, i. G.:
For the United States, 8 dollars for

TWO SAMPLES

"a newspaper which is opposing
soldier compensation states that "the
ex-service men of Australia are not
making hulabaloo over adjusted
compensation" Perhaps that is be-
cause the Australian ex-service man
has been given his choice between a
$4,000 cash compensation and 500
acres of ranch land, stocked by the
government.
That is one sample of propaganda
which is being used to protect the
political campaign contributions,
which come largely from wartime
proiteers.
Here is another; letter circulated
by great corporation to it's employ
es, to scare them into submission with
threat of discharge or cut in pay.
Mote last paragraph especially.
ITO All Aeolian Employees:
at is of the utmost Importance and
a matter of vital interest to all of us
that the program of tax revision,
commonly called the Mellon plan, be
passed at the present session of Con-
gress.
at is also vitality important that
the SO called Bonus Bill should not
be passed.
81 am asking that you write at
once to the two Senators representing
New York State at Washington, as
well as the representative of your
voting district, that you, as one of
their constituents, desire them, as
representing you, to vote for the
Mellon Bill without changes and to
vote against any kind of Bonus

MORE LEGISLATIVE PAY

The people of Wiscosin are asked
to vote in April on the question OF
raising the pay of state legislators
from $500 per term to $3.50 per year
Tor 81 800 per term).
With the sentiment pretty general
that any stipend at all was too mucn
for what the state got out of the last
legislature, this Spring looks like a
poor time to expect this handsome
raise.
The sum of $500 is not too much
pay legislator who puts IN MS
time honestly trying to attend to the
business of legislation, but it Is a
prodigious sum for the taxpayers to
spend merely to finance a political
jamboree.
Twenty-nine states pay lower sal
aries to their legislators than Wlscon-
sin, and in none of these was there
ever such a fiasco as the Badger SEES
sion of 1923.
To raise the pay now might give
the impression that Wisconsin voters
prefer professional politics to bust
ness policies at Madison.

THINK THIS OVER

The farmers and manufactures
convention recently held in New York
was practical step in working out
the theory of unity of interest be-
tween these two groups.
John M. Kelley of Baraboo, Wis
consin, vice-president of the National
Holstein Association, in discussing
! cooperative marketing and emphasiz
ing the necessity of modern business
methods in farming said: mo in
dustry can survive and follow the
methods that obtain in farming. If
Rockefeller handled his business as
farming is conducted, gasoline would
sell at five dollars a gallon to pay
cost of operation.
Americas greatest problem is to
teach the farmer how to produce on
quality basis and sell on a paying
basis"
Commenting on the harm of high
loACS, NCoiSt L. llCiiluCl, NiCC-PlCoi-
dent of Phoenix Trust Company of
Ottuma, Iowa, said that in some
localities taxes on farm lands have
increased in ten years three, four
and five-fold. In speaking of the
Treasury's plan for tax reduction,
he said:
"This is not Secretary Melons pro-
blem; it is not your problem or my
problem; it is not the problem of the
banker or the farmers, the manufact-
urer or the mechanic, the landlord or
the tenant. 1t is the problem of all
of us. 1t reaches into our pockets
and takes twelve and one-half cents
out of each dollar it finds there; it
reduces every ton of coal to 1850
pounds; it cuts slice from a ten-cent
loaf of bread and two ounces from a
pound of meat. 1t will not be solved
by political pickering, by elimination
or recrimination, by demagogs or
radicals; but by the sane, sober
thought and political action of the
sane, sober, honest people of this ma
tion."

The present spell of weather is said to be the codest in years by passengers arriving from the interior With the mercury 72 below at Haggard and 63 at Fairbanks it is inconcivabc to the coast Seventy degees is cold that within few feet of hot stove cannot keep warm, and to stick ones head out of doors means to have oncs lungs badly frosted At time several winters ago, the mercury reached 84 below at Birches and continued this cold for day or so We believe this to be the record in the Territory
 At the present time The Gateway is working under difficulties, the cable being down. the light and power service cut off, and depending on a small horse and a half gas engine for it's auxiliary.
