gle of the working-class children IN
the school. More space than ever 10
devoted to it in the March issue.
Another striking feature Of the
Young Comrade is the Puzzle Section
that was introduced to the thousands
Of Young Comrade readers two or
three months ago. This months sec
ton contains a few of the dozens OF
really splendid answers to last
months puzzle picture as well as
some new puzzles for this month.
More than ever before this Puzzle
Section promises to be popular with
the working-class children.
1t would be impossible to recount
all the attractive features Of the new
issue Of the Young Comrade. No
working-class child should be without
it! Every worker should consider it
duty to himself, his class, and to
his children to provide them with the
March Young Comrade and with a
subscription that will supply them
with this splendid children's paper
every month thereafter.

Money Unit Decline
Hits Norway Labor;
Many Out of Work

OSLO, Norway, March IL When
the value of the Norwegian kronen,
the unit Of currency decreased after
the war to about half and it's purchas-
ing power in the same proportion, it
had the same effect as a reduction
in wages. Attempts to increase wages
to make up for this met, as might
be expected, great opposition from
the employers. The wage workers
as a consequence lost large amounts.
During the last two years the krone
has made steady gain, from 1874
cents up to 2116, and the time for
the wage workers to regain what they
lost seemed at hand.
This, however, is to reckon with
out the employers. 1t does not suit
their program Here are the ship
owners and the exporters; their bust
ness is transacted in dollars and
pounds, while they are paying wages
in kroner. The higher the krone
goes, the less they get for their dol
lars and pounds, the greater the cos
of labor. So they began to clamor TO-
cut in wages. The capitalist papers
naturally took up the cry and it go
to be a general demand. Most of TIL
wage agreements expire April /, ant

these dates has been served on ;

whether the Soviet Republic is goin

One peculiar phase of the situatio
is that labor also blames its trouble

Exchange of Experiences
of conc en- tration
Groups and Shop Nuclei

A T the first meeting of Concentra-
n ton Group C. Section 8, of the
New York League, as organizer, lit
erature agent and secretary were
elected.
All the comrades then gave reports
on the conditions in their shops. Com
rade C. pointed out that about $50
workers are employed in her shop, of
whom the majority are piece workers.
They are as yet unorganized. She
expects to bring two new members
into the Y. w. L. The other MEM
bers present reported along similar
lines. stating that in their shops the
workers are likewise unorganized, and
that a need for organization exists.
| 1t was suggested that leaflets be
printed and distributed in the various
shops in which the comrades of this
group are employed. Four comrades
were present at this meeting.
At the second meeting five COM
rades were present. Comrade M. re-
ported that he will conduct a class in

there before at which so young work
ers were present.
Comrade S. is active in the organi-
rational campaign Of the Dressmak-
ers Union and her shop is now or

Comrade G. reported that she is ac-
tive in the Umbrella Makers Union.
She sold quite a few tickets for the

2. No doubt the language press of
our Party circulates among these Ian
guage organizations. But still, sys-
tematic effort to increase the circula-
ton among the members is not made
by all our language fractions. All the
members of the fraction must be held
responsible for reaching the member
ship with subscription appeals. If
possible, the organization should be
gotten to subscribe for the entire
membership, to have the particular
paper accepted as the official organ of
that organization. Bids for financial
assistance for the press can be made.
If our comrades are on the Execu-
tive Board Of these organizations, the
work becomes easier. Not only
should this work be done for the Ian
guage press. but this shall also be
done as much as possible for the
English press, particularly, the DAILY
WORKER. In this way the general
outlook Of the membership can be
broadened from the Communist view.
point. Party literature, language and
English, should be sold regularly in
these clubs, leaflets distributed. The
fraction should have a live literature
squad for this purpose.
3. The work being performed by
the International Labor Defense on
behalf of class war prisoners should
interest easily these organizations
The Party gives full support to this
non-partisan organization of workers
defense. Hence our fraction mus
bring l. L. D. and its purposes be
fore the language organizations; en-
deavor to have the fraternal organi
cation affiliate to the l. L. D., send del
egates to the l. L. d. committee an(
pay its per capita. Further, however
our fraction must try to draw the
members of these bodies into the l
L. D. as individuals, active members
and not be satisfied with only organi
cation afiliation. Collections, con
tributions, ETC., can be urged for tn,
defense work.

BY MARTIN AsERN.

COMMUNIST fractions are being
~ formed in all language fraternal
organizations, workers clubs, cultu-
raj societies, sport clubs, etc. What
is the purpose of the Communist frac-
tions in them? Essentially, the same
work must be performed in them by
our Party members and fractions as
our fractions perform in the labor
unions, central labor councils. Nat
urally, the organizations and ideas
prevailing within these language fra
ternal bodies is somewhat different
in form than in the unions, but the
problem before US is basically com
mon.
In all these organizations our
party members, thru the fractions,
aim to develop a Communist theology
among the membership. That is not
SO easy done as said. These organi-
cations are strongly rooted with the
idea of mo politics" in their sick
and death benefit, social, etc, organi-
cations. Actually, we know that they
are sore infested with capitalist ideas
and methods; a mixture of the Euro
pean habits and culture plus the crude
Babbitt-like prosperity feeling of the
American. The fraction must sys'
tematically endeavor to smash these
mo politics" or capitalist politics
ideas in these organizations, and
bring workers politics" into them.
What shall the Communist fraction
and members, concretely, bring into
these associations?
1. The fraction shall endeavor tc
have lectures regularly by represen
thtives from various working class
organizations, political parties, unions
co-operatives, etc. Debates should b.
encouraged; these offer good opportu
nifty for our comrades to discuss the
vital issues before the working class
These organizations have speakers

story of the l. L. d. is told to the

tiles of the University of California,

startling worldwide conspiracy of the
Third International to organize Lib

committee Immediately went to visit
the university president, protesting
against the sitting of student opin-
ion, and they were bluntly told that
no Liberal Club would be tolerated at
the university. The charge Of par.

4. Our fraction must try systemat-
ically to bring up general labor and
political problems into these bodies
Graphically before the Party language
fractions, especially, is the Party
campaign for the Protection of the
Foreign Born. This arouses wide
mass interest, and this campaign can
develop vast mass protest every
where against the continued encroach-
ments of American capitalism and
government against the workers and
specifically the foreign-born workers.
On this issue our fraction can easily
get before the organization with our
speakers, leaflets, papers, propaganda,
and urge organization of the Council
for the Protection of the Foreign
Born. Thus, too, the Communists
demonstrate to the workers in these
societies that they are not mere
cranks. with pet theories, but are the
ones who take the lead in the struggle
for defense of the elementary needs
of the workers-in this case, protec-
ton against aggression, defense of po-
litical rights. If our fractions are
really on the job in this campaign
they should be able to establish them
selves firmly in the fraternal organi-
cations and gain respect and conf
dence of the membership.
S. Then, too, there is the question
of a Labor Party in America as first
steps taken politically for protection
of the workers as class. This issue
must be propagated. Soviet Russia
no doubt has hold among large sec
tons of the members. Our fraction
must present the issue. not only Of
recognition, but also of defense o.
the first workers republic.
