Statement on the
Arrest of M. Kushner
And MOskOwitz

FelloW workers and Students!
With the arrest of two members of
the Young Workers League for dis
tributing Hands Off China" leaflets,
American capital shows its fear of
exposure of the imperialistic role it
is playing in China.
American marines and sailors are
actually participating with English
and other imperialistic troops to
throttle the onward march of the vic
torious Chinese Revolution. The
Americans are told that the part
played by the marines and sailors is
to protect our countrymen and women
in foreign waters. Actually we are
protecting the concessions wrested
from the Chinese by military force.
The Chinese Revolution, despite be-
trayals, is consolidating its forces for
victorious advance against all impe-
rialism and with the Soviet Union
as its only friend. they become the
hope of the exploited of the earth and
menace to the capitalists of the
world.
The first blow is always directed
against the vanguard of the labor
movement; this time the youth of the
Communist movement. The arrest of
Kushnir and the sentencing of H.
Moskowitz to six months clearly
shows the onslaught waged against
anyone who fights against the policy
of the Coolidge administration.
1t is for the profitable investments
of the Wall Street and British bank
ers that millions of American young
workers and students will be sent to
war on the peoples of China and of
the Soviet Union. A war on China
and Russia means to convert the whole
world into new slaughterhouse,
Millions of American, English, Chi
nese and Russian young workers and
students will be butchered and gassed
on the battlefields of Asia, to make
the English POUND and the Amer
lean DOLLAR safe in China.
Fellow Workers. This is not ar
idle threat. Already the American
government is preparing itself fol
war. The young workers of America
under the camouflage of recreation
are being trained as future soldiers
in the Citizens Military Training
Camps, the students are compelled to
train themselves in the Reserve Off.
GERS Training Corps. Undoubtedly
the youth of America is being mil.
itarized.
The, capitalist persecution will moi
stop the Young Workers Communist
League from modifying the working
class youth against the future war
Every young worker must rally to the
banner Of the Young Workers (Com
munist) League, which is the only or
ganization which fights for the bet
terment Of their economic conditions
and against imperialist war and cap
italist persecution. Young workers
Rally to the defense of your interests
Rally to the defense of the working
youth against the dangers and mis-
cries of new imperialist wars. Figh
for the freedom of imprisoned young
workers.

Yes, what happened had to happen.
In the beginning of 1917 the war
had lost its popularity with the
masses. Disintegration was creep
ing into the lousy, hungry and half
clothed army. There was not enough
ammunition. Recruits drilled with
dummy guns. The economic system
of Russia was undermined. Our cap
itals and other large cities found
themselves menaced by famine. Such
slogans as Gear and the Faith" were
completely worn-out and ready for
the ash-heap. The new government
could think of no way out and the
end of the war was nowhere in sight.
Above all circled the rumors Of
treachery in CUR higher circles. These
rumors penetrated all hooks and cor
ners of our spacious Russia, creating
vague alarm. Discomfort with the
whole order and himself stirred in
the soul of every Russian.

This is the first instance of a Negro

By PARKER TOMBSTONE, of the
 Chicago Evening Post
 My time to leave this grand little town of Seward has about arrived. It grieves me, but my work calls me to the Interior where shall spend few weeks in hopes that may soon return.
 Before leave I want to tell the peo- pie of Seward what I think of the Seward Daily Gateway My opinion is not founded upon my most cordial reception by the press, and allowing my name to appear So many times on the pages of news. but rather upon the critical viewpoint I naturally take to- ward everything and especially jour nalism or newspaper work.
 The Seward Daily Gateway has more real news, local and otherwise, in week than any other newspaper in Alaska has in a month. You cannot fcall this statement applesauce for in deed I am running chances of hurt ing myself In travelling around the country, my bread and butter depends upon the various newspapers for which I write, So you see cannot afford to say anything but the truth, or criti- else frankly and justly
 The editors have their troubles as i all writers of public opinion do, for they have to be So exceedingly careful in what they say for fear of hurting somebody's feelings, and still keep lip the standard Of the free press. Fortunately they are open-minded and will listen to reason. They are here to help you to make Seward the great est town in Alaska as much as they can by means of a real news service, and say as one who has been con- nected with many periodicals and as fair judge, they are performing their work as masters in the art.
 Let us put it this way: Did you ever stop to compare this paper with thousands of others? Do you find the sheets cluttered up with murders, crimes of all sorts, scandal, lengthy articles of little news value to the sur rounding country, and biased opinions founded on personal bull-headedness? No, you bet your life you don't. You'll always find news, clean news, educa- tional news and constructive views, giving praise and encouragement where it belongs and the devil his dues"
 Oh, I know Seward is proud of the Gateway. I shall praise it wherever I go. I mean every word I've said. Now, howzat? Are you with me? noW-seven forthe Gateway Alto

while and now that mammoth returns
are coming from the foot ball sta
diums, economic objections have been
removed.

With few exceptions Locke's grades

since the days when Roscoe Pound
was foreman, the Nebraska law
course has not offered anything that
family resembles a sine cure
At the same time Locke has contin-
ued with such subjects as philosophy,
psychology and English literature,
which were included in regular aca-
demic courses as an undergraduate.
Locke has attained popularity at
his university without forming many,
If any. intimate friendships. His
books have occupied him pretty ex-
clusively even on trips of the foot
ball and athletic teams to which he
belonged. Perhaps his best friend has
been the dog, which. for the past
five years, has followed him about the
outside buildings until his recitations
were over.
AS every one knows, Locke holds
the world record in the 220 dash and
has turned in some dazzling times for
the 100. When he was in Philadel-
phia, at the Penn Relays, he did not
talk much about track, but one sus-
pected that with his foot ball days
vanishing into misty perspective he
was inclined to feel he had had a
pretty hectic and not too satisfactory
experience.
