dren ask us this question.
Lenin was a revolutionary
leader, a Communist, and our
Comrade Lenin's brother was a
revolutionary leader also. Len
ms brother was killed by the
cars soldiers, and this was the
beginning OF Lenin's awakening.
He went to college and there
he taught all his student friends
Communism. When he finished
college he went to a Karl Marx
college.
In the revolution Of 1917,
Lenin took an active part. He
could not come to many meet
ings because he was being hunt
ed by the cars police who
wanted to do the same thing to
him that they did to his brother.
So, tho he was very active and
all his words were law to the
comrades, they did not see him
very often. Some did not see
him at all, but they all studied
his teachings.
The Communists won the
revolution and Lenin became
premier of Soviet Russia.
On Jan. 81, 1924, Comrade
Lenin died and was mourned by
all the world. Lenin was a
teacher and let us all remember
his teachings and keep his spirit.

Association, annoupced the cut after
the associations meeting.
The announcement of the cut makes
New England textile wage reductions
practically unanimous. Amoskeag
mills in New Hampshire led off with
Lawrence, Lowell, Rhode Island, and
Fall River mills following. No mark
ed increase in the amount of work has
been promised in any Of the mills, al
tho some have resumed flve-day week
or full-time operation.
The T. U. E. L. Issues Statement.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. 13.-The Trade
Union Educational League today is
sued a statement upon the critical sit
uation in the textile unions and the
industry. The statement says:
1--WE warn the textile workers
against any surrender to the bosses
on the wage cut, as experience proves
that any such surrender will be fol-
lowed by another attack on wages or
on hours. That the New Hampshire
mills are now beginning to increase
the work day from so to 81 hours
should be lesson to the unions Of the
American Federation of textile opera
tives in Fall River. The wage cut be-
gan in New Hampshire.
Fight or Lose More.
The T. U. E. L. and all the militant
textile workers of New England will
support the weayers' and spinners un-
ions of Fall River in joint and close
action with the United Textile Work
ers Union in solid front against the
wage cuts. The T. U. E. L. and the
Communists will rally all their forces
as they did for the broad-silk workers
in Paterson to aid strikes of the text
lie workers.
The T. U. e. L. points out to the
mistaken workers in the Fall River
carders', yarn finishers' and slashers'
locals of the A. F. T. O.-and to all
other textile workers who are think
ing that the easiest way is to surren-
der, that any acceptance of the cut
will bring more cuts, and increases of
hours.
No Division; No besertionI
Moreover, this division of the
workers unions in the face of an at
tack by the unified bosses is desertion
under fire and destructive of the I'M
ions you have. Poor and weak as they
are, they will be destroyed, just as the
power of the railroad shop unions was
destroyed by one union accepting cuts,
breaking unity, then another, and an
other, until a capitalist open shop Of
fensive practically wrecked them.
The Y. U. e. L. urges the textile
workers-Force your little unions to
unite on the one issue of fighting the
wage cuts. Take the lead, militants!
Call on the tagging locals for united
effort! Where no unions exist, or
where they will not struggle, call the
workers into meeting and form shop
committees that will take up the
fight. For unity, build solid fight
ing 'front.' Rally the unorganized
masses to the struggle! Permit no
betrayal by officials! Stand by your
guns, fight the wage cut! Fight any
increase in hours
