Thereof is much in common to this

young people can get signatures for
our petitions much better than the
adults. Each branch has elected its
campaign committee to cooperate
with the party's political groups.
When visiting the branches and see
ing how seriously they take them
selves to this work, one cannot help
but admit that the youth is being in
itiated in political activity. Each
branch is lining up the territories,
(which they will canvass for names.
Hearing young workers advocate
Communism on the soap box, and

brings confidence back to many

ana we can say conndently tnat the
work will be well done.
Last but not least is our Junior Sec
ton. They will also contribute their
share in the work. In the kindergar-
tens and Fairgrounds, the names of Fos-
ter, Gitlow and Communism will often
be heard. The young comrades are
assisting in getting names for the
party's petitions and they function
very aggressively. Coolidge, Davis,
LaFollette and other coteries of this
ilk, will have their dirty hides rip
ped off, once the juniors get after
them. No party can boast of receiv-
ing this kind of support but only the
Workers Party of America. Side by
side with the Young Worker, and
Daily Worker, the Young Comrade,
official organ Of the leagues Junior
section, will aim its editorial batter
les at the enemies. The Young Com
rade" will explain in its simplifed
style to all the workers children, the
necessity of fighting for the Com
munist standard bearers and joining
the Junior Section of the Young Work
ers' League.
The slogan of the league and its
Junior Section is Line up the youth
and children for Communism in the
coming elections" We have many ac-
complishments to our credit and now
we have the chance Of chalking down
to our record another one. We can
demonstrate our capability in taking
equal responsibility of the campaign,
! in proportion to our resources, by do
ing the following tasks Immediately:
~ Getting petitions filled with
names to place our candidates in the
field. (2) Speaking on the soap box,
in front of the factories and in the
halls for our ticket. 60 Selling The
DAILY WORKER and other litera-
ture, wherever the workers gather.
"a Take the election to the factory,
mill, mine and school room. The
style of the movement is to become
young Communist fighters.
The activity of the Workers Party
reflects itself in the Young Workers
League. The league members are be-
coming acquainted more intimately
with American politics as a result of
their activity. The demand of the
party for practical Communist poll
ticians will be supplied from the ma
terial that is being developed by the
Young Workers League. Let US
make the following slogans resound
turnout the country and enlist the
healthy, lusty threats of the youthful
toilers in this country to help us make
ourselves heard:
Down with the exploiters of youth
and child labor.
Down with the petrayers of the
workingclass of the LaFollette type.
Down with Coolidge, the strike
breaker and Morgan's man, Davis.
Rally to the support of Foster and
Gitlow who represent the only means
that will do away once and for all with
youth and child labor and that is the
Dictatorship Of the Proletariat."

THE YOUNG WORKERS LEAGUE

tered the election campaign to sup
port the Workers Party candidates
with its typical enthusiasm. The
ever growing army of the young pro

conduct. Present indications show
that the youth gre becoming more

the latest developments exemplified

activity and influence Of the two or

Under the leadership of the Work

protected from the deadly effects of

successfully. In this campaign the
Young Workers League is afforded
for the first time an opportunity of
becoming active politically.
The open shop campaigns which
succeeded in reducing the pay of the
adult workers, created a swelling in
the ranks of youth labor. The lower

worker has made him a little more
politically conscious. The exposure
OF the government scandals in Wash

one becomes convinced of this. This
presents a fertile field for propaganda
and the election campaign will be the
best medium for accomplishing it.
We must prevent the germs of re-

minds of the youthful toilers. To con.
vince them that under capitalism they
will remain wage-slaves and expert

THE NEW WAR

BY oSKAR kANEHL.
Hate songs are raging thru the streets.
On wide places the patriot-mob is crying
For arms. War! And for new blood.
The president of republic is kingly behaving
Minister-braggarts beating up for recruits.
Swordmen are cleaning their orden-buckles.
Hirelings fattened.
Machine guns, hand grenades, soldiery
Drills on peace-fanatical working people
Power practices on faintness.
Takes prisoners. Besieges.
Storms. Marches in. Celebrates victories
Shoots.
Freedom-fghters are dying at flight-trial
Prophets are slain
Offering blood is streaming
Murderers have charter.
But
Man is coming upon you.
One morning you will not awake
The skull of your chieftain will shatter
On the barrier of men.
The lances of his truest slave will split
Your hellheaven will be torn
Across in two.

That last paragraph of Mr.. Carpen-
ter's letter, in the light of the pro-
visions of the Colorado River Com
pact, is even more significant today
than it was at the time it was pen
ned because at that time, if Califor-
MIA had put to beneficial use such
waters of the Colorado River as she
could use, Arizona would have the
opportunity of taking the balance of
the water and putting it to use, leav-
ing the upper states to worry about
lack of water.
The Colorado River Compact, SO
far as Arizona is concerned, leaves
the situation the same that Mr. Car
penter warned about as it relates to
California, and then provides that
over five million acre feet of water
which Arizona might obtain title to-
is reserved to the upper basin states
in addition to the two and one-half
million acre feet they are now using
In the light of these facts, I can
not understand how you can make
the statement that "The Boulder
Canyon dam was embalmed by polit
ical prejudice"
The facts | have just quoted are
known to men who are supporting
the Colorado River Compact, and ig-
nored by them.
Mr. Carpenter after warning Gov
ernor Campbell, went even further
and warned the Governor of Nevada
against the danger of the Boulder
Canyon reservoir and the Swing
Johnson bill until such time as the
rights Of Nevada were protected and
stated:
"The states of Arizona and
Nevada own that<part of the bed
