Capitalism's Brutalities
Against the Children
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

TODAY the Chicago Tribune tries find comfort for the
capitalist system supports from news cable by Walter
Duranty Moscow correspondent of the New York Times
telling about the wayward children of Moscow Thus the
Tribune reaches the conclusion that:
"czatn childhood No civilized state would
could allow dependent childhood revert and
its streets"
No Communist especially the Communists of the Soviet
Union, will deny that the Workers Republic has child
problem its hands, This has been repeatedly pointed
in The DAILY WORKER with the solutions offered for
cessfuIy meeting this problem.
The Irlbunes editorial will not admit that It has
child problem under capitalism It did, according to the
reasoning Of its editorial would be compelled
Tess that capitalist society is unstable to that extent
The unprncipIed Tribune also builds it's argument by
claiming that Russias child problem has grown up under
Soviet rule charging indicative of the Soviet lapse from
civilization This of is the sheerest sophistry
Russas child problem an inheritance from the black
days OF czarisn 1t made by the world mpeast
war; millions of fathers bread Winners were saugh
tered the battefeds augmented when United
other great capitalist nations and made war upon Soviet rule
in effort to overthrow resulting the devastation of
great areas of the Russian nation the Gripping of its indus
tries the destruction of its agriculture and the murder of
thousands of fathers mothers mention the
children It grew bigger when crippled Russia unable
to meet successfully will in future ravaoes of
famine like that of 1921 that continued the destruction of
family life in spite OF every contrary effort by the Soviet
But the problem is being met Orphaned children are
being taken of in homes specially prepared for them;
usually the palaces and country estates of the dukes and
princes that are gone Here they educated prepared
for the life ahead herded as undesirable outcasts in
dsyus no peer than captasns prisons. At moment
special drive is being made find homes for orphaned
children among the peasants enjoying the New Day that is
coming to them thru the development of agriculture along
modern lines instituted and encouraged the Soviet state
Boshevsm builds its future the winning of the children
The care OF the children the liquidation of all the capitalist
6arbartes toward Children including taking them out of the
factories and sending them to school, this the first espon
sbty OF Boshevist rule All unpreudiced observers non
communists even enemies of Soviet rule admit that
the problem is being solved
But in the United States the problem grows worse The
NUMBER OF children sent into industry grows resulting in
men ano women stunted mentally boys girls robbed of
tne chdhood LIES energy sapped of them before thew
!eacn maturity and when they conflict with the can
td'st aw thru the commission some crime Iabeed &C
morons and degenerates" Such conditions produce The
MARTIN Dukins iterate and savage hunted like beasts in
the nges OF the great American cities with police order If
snoot them on sight The records with their eyano
natons OF the millions called arms give conclusive test
ony mat American capitalism has produced breed of sh
normal human beings. ~ " '"N
