AYES.
Among other numbers on the pro

well.
Second: To learn to understand the
people and know what the workers
want.
Third: To learn to speak SO that we
can tell the workers the things that
we have learned, in a way that they
will understand.
And last but not least, devotion and
love for the workers and hate for the
capitalists or oppressors of the work
ers.
In commemoration of our great
leader, the West Allis Juniors chang
ed their name and will be known
after this as "Comrade Lenin's Stu.
dents"

In less than a year the city of
TifIis, the capital of Georgia,
which one always remembers
in connection with lazy eastern

Not only will Tifiis as well as
the villages for miles around be
lighted by this plant, but it's in
dustries will be completely cleo
trifed.
The conditions under which the
men are working on the plant IL miles
from the city are as near model as
temporary construction camps can be.
The men work hours a day in three
shifts, about 1000 men per shift. A
hospital gives free medical and sur
gical aid, arranged on approved sani-
tary lines. Daily baths are provided
for all. The general laundry arrange
ments are adequate and convenient.
In fact, bathing and general cleanliness
are a striking feature of the camp.
Wages compare favorably with any
part OF Russia. Co-operatives run by
the union furnish food cheaply. AT
their union clubs the men organize
entertainments or read in the librar.
les, attend classes and have opportun.
tiles for lectures on economic and
political conditions.
The new machinery for the power
house is set up and everything is
awaiting completion Of the huge dam

LENIN MEETING
Interesting Speaker Gets
Two Encores

GARY, Ind, Jan. 27.@The Leuan
memorial meeting in Gary Indiana,
didn't have many people in attendance,
half hundred or so, but it was a real
meeting. Comrade Thurber Lewis, Of
Chicago, was the speaker. He gave q
short biographical sketch Of Lenin,
review Of Lenin's pre-revolutionary
activities, an account of Lenin'a role
in the revolution and resume Of the
great leaders contributions to work
ing-class thought. When he finished,
the crowd didn't show any inclination
to go away.
Liked His stun.
The embarrassing condition Of in
decision that pervaded the hall while
the crowd sat there and the meeting
was presumably over was broken by q
comrade who arose and suggested that
Lewis make another speech dwelling
more at length with the movement in
this country.
Comrade Lewis rose and made speech
number two. At the conclusion Of the
second speech much the same disin-
clination to leave gripped the audience.
Third and Last.
Another comrade arose and asked
that the Trotsky controversy in Rus
STA be given a few moments of ex-
PLANTATION by the speaker. Comrade
Lewis began speech number three
about the movement for reorienta-
ton of the policies of the Russian Com
munist Party of which Trotsky is the
spokesman. At the conclusion of the
third address the crowd finally
consented to leave.
