Mass Meeting Will Be
Held Tomorrow Evening

John P. Mccarthy, recently return
ed from ireland, will be the principal
speaker tomorrow evening at an Irish
famine relief mass meeting in North
Side Turner Hall, at S27 North Clark
street. Comrade Mccarthy spent
several months on the west coast of
Ireland where the failure of the crops
and the constant downpour of rain
hit the peasantry most severely.
During the course of his visit to
Ireland Mccarthy interviewed leaders
of all factions of the trade union and
radical movements in Ireland. He
tells very interesting story OF the
present situation in that country
which has passed thru years Of revo-
luton and civil war.
William r. Dunno, editor OF the
DAILY WORKER. r. J. OFlaherty
and Robert Totten will also speak.
Pictures of Irish scenes will be
shown. The proceeds of the meeting
will go towards the relief Of the
famine stricken workers and peasants

attaining even the immediate
educational needs of their class.
The program began with the charge
that the present educational system is
simply part Of the capitalist dicta-
torship, as follows:
THE existing school system is one
of the institutions used to perpetuate
the capitalist system. The working
class has no voice or influence in
shaping the educational policies. Our
school system must be changed to
train and fit the child and youth to be
citizens in a society based upon pro-
duction for use and not for profit; in
which the means Of production and
distribution and natural resources are
in the hands of the workers and farm
ers."
A complete change was outlined in
detail, embracing the policy of the
educational system toward the class
struggle and definite issues including
management of schools by councils of
teachers and students, unionization,
opposing military training and race
segregation.
II Elected Would Work for
Communism
Comrade Levin, however, dispelled
any illusions that these demands
would be permitted realization under
capitalism. He said: 'The candidate
running on the above platform knows
that the ruling class will not permit
the realization of his demands under
the present system of society, and
therefore, pledges himself when elect
ed to work for the establishment of a
Communist society"
