The Children Fighting Education" Week

Working Glass Parents, Line UpI
The militant parents of the work
ing class must become part of this
struggle. A keynote slogan of the
Young Pioneers in this campaign is
the enrolment of the proletarian par
ents in the struggles of the children.
During this campaign the Young Pho
neers will call conferences of the
working class parents and draw them
into the campaign. These conference
es will serve as the basis for the set
ting up of Proletarian Parents Coun-
ellis of the Public Schools. The par
ents must help all the actions of the
Young Pioneers. They must send let
tiers to the teachers, principals and
officials of the board of education pro-
testing against the anti-labor nation
alist and religious propaganda which
will be dished out wholesale during
this week.
The parents councils must fight
against fire trap schools, against mall
nutrition and unsanitary conditions.
against greater economy plans and
against child labor. They must fight
for the demand: Free food and
clothing for the children, at the ex-
pense of the state and under the SUI
pervision of the organs of the work
ing class. AS fundamental aim the
parents must fight for the control of
the schools by the parents councils,
| Al. a.
unions.
Working class parents! Line up
with the children of their struggle.
Help to make the Young Pioneers
mass organization of the workers
children. Help to make The Young
Comrade the fighting mass organ OF
the child laborers and the millions
of proletarian children in this coun-
try.

rooms. All the greater economy plans
conceivable are adopted to prevent
expenditures for the building of new
decent school buildings. Tin can port
able schools are set up. Platoon, Gary
and other machine-like part-time sys-
TENS are set up in order to save
money and to turn out wage slaves
like a sausage machine turns out
sausages.
American Education Week for Whom?
1t is but appropriate that the Ameri-
can legion, the well-known band Of
strikebreakers, the American educa-
ton association and the bureau of
education should unite in the en-
deavor to still further poison the
minds of the workers children. For
this purpose they have set aside Nov.
16 to the 22nd, as a week Of con-
centrated propaganda to teach the
workers child to be loyal to "its"
country and the bosses rule; to be
obedient, meek and superstitious :; to
be thrifty; to be healthy and to con-
serve the natural resources of this
country. s 3. =
What cheap cynicism for the rich
pot-bellied bourgeois gentlemen OF
these institutions to come before the
workers children with such words.
To tell pennyless children to be thrift
ty; to tell underfed children to be
healthy; to tell propertyless children
of propertyless parents to be loyal to
their" country and to conserve
their" natural resources.
American Education Week is not
for the workers children. 1t is fol
the children Of the bourgeoisie.

him to be a peasant. And he said, i
am Pavel Ivanovitch Biriukov."
"Oh-h," l said, "the biographer of Toll
stoy," and he answered, Eyes, Yes.
The Soviet government published my
books on Tolstoy, and am going
there for visit"
| asked Pavel Ivanovich Biriukoy,
sis it true that the intelligentsia and
scientists in Russia are prosecuted ?"
And he replied, ut is the greatest
crime in the history Of the world that
the intelligentsia abroad are spread
ing lies about the attitude Of Soviet
Russia towards its spiritual workers"
The Soviet government, he said, is a
government of the simple people-of
the peasant and the worker, And en-
bodies the ideal and longing of the
common people. And those that are
trying to hinder the work of such a
new country that is seeking itself its
goal and it's form, are really betraying
the ideals of humanity.
From far distant cars people came
to hear the wisdom of the old man.
And he told how in Moscow there is
a Tolstoy Museum, how Yasnaya Poll
ana is kept up by Sasha, the daughter
of Tolstoy. And there were questions
asked, discussions, criticisms, bitter
criticisms, in some ways, but l heard
love in everybody's heart towards
Soviet Russia.

the cars. learn group from Ameri-
ca is going to establish model farm
in Perm with "a tractors. 1t is made
up of robust, tall men and women. In
few minutes we became acquainted.
It is late Saturday night. In the
morning Wen reach Moscow.
It was quiet all over But in cor
ner of the train the American group
was still discussing and they sent for
me. What is it, friends" | asked
them. And they began to tell me.
'You know, we are not going to Sow
ct Russia because we didn't have any
thing to eat in America, our stomachs
were full, but we were not satisfied,
our lives were too dry, too empty, and
then some of us went as relief work
ers in the years of famine in Soviet
Russia and we heard the peasants
sing and we saw a life that brings
happiness. And so we organized to
help establish this happiness and this
life. And now we think that If we
will bring tractors and modern form
of industry in agriculture to the pea

we will take away their song. And

try, can feel what / felt at that mo-
ment! Tears came to my eyes and !
began to feel that Moscow is not only
the capital of the Socialist Soviet Re-
publics, but it is the capital of all
suffering humanity, that it awakens
longing for real freedom among all
peoples ON the earth.
Later in the evening ring up my
old comrades. The first one l saw
was Comrade Michael Rachkes. What
a broadness, what depth of com
radeship was felt. "Why didn't you
send us a telegram" "Why did you
not let us know that you are coming,
we would have met you at the sta
tion?' Rachkes asked. NO" l said,
81 wanted to see for myself" And
then he said to his wife, "You know,
we would change Moscow, if we
would know Backall was coming, so
he was afraid to let us know" And
then we all laughed 49,
l began to visit factories. On the
outside they are gray buildings, as
the city itself is an old Russian city.
Inside people are busy working. But
every workingman, like the workers
of the whole factory, feel that the ma
chimes which they operate, as the
whole life of Soviet Russia, is theirs.
The consciousness that grows all over
in Soviet Russia that the present con-
ditions of hardships is only Temporal
ry, that thru suffering and pain they
build a new life not only for them
selves but for the whole of humanity,
is the international feeling, all over
Moscow, in the hearts of the inhabi-
tants.
Moscow is an international revolu-
tionary capital. The streets are filled
with the children of India, China, ia
pan, Africa and European countries.
They are studying at the universities
of Moscow. They are participating in
congresses and conferences.
There is no Ghetto in Moscow. All
human beings are alike. Have the
same rights, the same privileges, COM
bined with the same ideals and ideas.
l met students of the University of
Moscow and l asked them, What is
your aim?" And they answered, Our
aim is to build new humanity, our
services will befor all human beipgssn
And l felt the truth of their simple
statements hanging in the atmosphere
of Moscow. heard such words from
the mouths of poets in America, in
Germany, but they were only long
ings, signs, but in the mouths of
young Russia, it is reality. 1t is a
truth.

THE children of the workers in the
L lands of capitalist rule and imper-
ialist domination are born into a
world which spells hard work, under
nourishment, disease and death. In
our own United States the land of
plenty (for the bosses) millions OF
children go to school hungry and rag
ged.
Millions more are forced at an early
age to enter the factories and mills,
the canneries and farms and there to
labor for long hours in order that
they may help to increase a little the
small incomes of the proletarian fami-
lies. American capitalism is the muir
derer par excellence of the proletar-
ian children of this country and OF
it's colonial and semi-colonial posses
sions.
Public SchooIs-Hothouses Of Re-
action.
The public schools are an, INSOFAR
able part Of the bourgeoisie state
rule. The primary motive Of the in
situations of so-called free education
Is to turn out as large a number Of
obedient patriotic wage slaves in the
shortest possible time, at the smallest
possible expense. The teaching Of the
three IRIS" is but part Of the general
patriotic, religious, pro-boss propagan-
da which is dished out under the guise
Of education.
To save expenses the local politi'
clans on the school boards allow
school buildings to go on for years
without any repairs thus endangerine
the lives and health Of thousands OF
children. Thousands Of schools thru
out the country are veritable fire
traps, with wooden steps, no fire es
capes and loose chairs in assembly

WHEN / left the neighboring coun-
w tries to go to Soviet Russia felt
very much embarrassed. The neigh
boring countries as Latvia, Germany,
Poland are full with people that esca-
ped Soviet Russia. They are telling
horrible stories. They saw with their
own eyes how the inhabitants of So
Wet Russia are afraid to talk, to cri-
ticize, to express their opinions, be-
cause they have a suspicion that
every other person is member OF the
Cheka. They picture very impressive
" how the leaders of the Soviet Re-
publics are establishing a caste and
are uot of touch with the life of the
population.
There is a struggle going on inside
of me. If there is truth to what 1t
is said about Soviet Russia, so what
happened with the ideal of Commun-
ism? With the great teachings of
Marx and Lenin?
l had many sleepless nights because
of it. But my longing to see Soviet
Russia, to breathe the air where the
great drama of the social revolution
took place-where a new life was
created and a new hope was brought
about-overpowered my fear and l
left for Soviet Russia.
When the train arrived at zebezeh
where the line is divided between the
old and the new world and l saw a
little hut with red inscriptions: Long
live the social evolution-Work-
ers of the world unite-and red
soldiers guarding with their lives
and blood the Socialist Soviet
Republics, l felt relieved, and further
more, when l saw the political militia
explaining to every one the laws of
the Soviet Republic, and had a con-
versation with the chief about the
new life that springs all over the great
country of Soviet Russia, i felt as tho
a heavy load was taken off my heart.
The train is moving on Soviet Rus
STA land. We see life in every station.
People streaming all over. l walk thru
the cars of the train and / see lying
on bench an old man in very simple
clothes with a white beard and big,
big eyes. -Good evening, citizen" /
said to him. Good evening, brother, -
he replied. Where are you going"
asked him, and he said, II am going
to Moscow and then back to Switzer-
land" "To Switzerland" l wonder.
what for" I confronted him again.
He smiled. He understood that took
