Pioneers of New York
To Fight Propaganda
Of Boss For May Day

May Day this year means much
more than ever before. In every
Public school the children are being
forced to join some military organi-
cation such as the Boy Scouts or the
r. 0. T. C. The Young Pioneers are
going to raise the question Of mill
tary training and show the workers
child how they are being fooled by
the capitalist class.
The Board of Health is issuing the
slogan Of Health Day" for May L.
The Young Pioneers are going to
point out to the workers children that
only the children of the rich can be
healthy. We know that the conditions
of the workers are so miserable that
the workers can't afford to live in
large airy rooms, have plenty Of
clothes and nourishing food
Other problems that will be raised
are; Better conditions in the schools,
free meal to every school child, fight
against child labor and other daily
problems of the workers child.
Comrades, send your children to
the May Day celebration given by
the Young Pioneers this Saturday af-
ternoon at 525 E. 72nd ST., P. NJ.

NiCaraguaIl Society
Shows That Coolidge
Lies About Country

That President Coolidge's referen-
ces to Nicaragua in his speech here
last Monday are at variance with the
facts, is the position of the Central
American Society which states that it
is substantiated by state department
archives and the congressional rec
ord.
The Society points out that rev
olution was started by the
very group that has now been recog-
nized by the United States in spite
of existing treaties forbidding the
recognition of governments born of
fraud or revolution"
Salvador Is American Controlled.
The latter adds that the only Cen
trail American countries which have
recognized the Diaz regime in addi-
ton to the United States are Hon
duras, the administration of which is
lettering and continues only thru
American support, and Salvador,
whose administration is virtually in
the payroll of American interests"
Of Coolidge's statement that mar
ines were sent to protect American
lives and property and the right to
construct canal and naval base, the
letter says:
American lives and property never
have been threatened in any Central
American upheaval. The proof is that
not once in the past ff.y years has
an outrage involving the loss of life
been recorded against any American"
The letter points out that the
Bryant hamorro treaty, which gave
the United States the right to a
canal has been declared null by the
Central American Court Of Justice.
Further, the treaty violates the con-
stitution of Nicaragua, the letter de-
clares.
Shows Up Calvin.
"We are not making war on Mica
ragua," said Mr.. Coolidge. "any more
than a policeman is making war on
passersby."
"American-manned airships," re-
torts the letter, bomb the rebel
ranks with American made guns and
bombs. Marines have fired upon
rebels attacking the railroad, in
which not cent of American capital
is invested. American credits have
been opened to Diaz and United
States Army and Navy supplies for
warded to Diaz."

There was no time to stop and talk
with workman TO find out what is
back of tired faces, no chance to chat
little and find more about the lives
to which these people return after
twelve hours Of labor. These are mar
ried women who have homes that must
be cared for at night. These women
do not have nurses to take care Of
their children while they 90 out TO
their jobs. They go home to cook rice
and few vegetables for their fami-
lies and so to bed in the midst of
soualor. only to ret up at o'clock the
next morning, hurry through early
morning duties and be on hand when
tho whistle blows and the sun rises
at 6.
