"Misapprehension concerning the

an utter ignorance of American Gov

Apart from the governmental as.
pect of the question. what is this
financial imperialism of which we
are hearing SO much nowadays?
Stripped of rhetorical and imaginative
phrases, 1t comes down to the propo-
sition that we have a certain amount
of surplus funds which other peoples
are anxious to borrow. The extent of
our supposed 'overlordship of the
world consists simply in our request
that once contracted, these debts to
the American investor will be honored
and paid. and that the funds which
they represent will be used for peace
full and soundly productive purposes.
IF American finance is to play it's
part in world reconstruction sanely
and efficiently, we must consider our
foreign investments as a business
proposition. The American investor,
after all, has little reason to consider
himself a philanthropist because he
DuyS foreign BOND; neither IS ne a
bully, or a conspirator.
THE diversion of national finances
to promote national ggrandizement
and the acquisition of new territories
abroad is a policy which in the end
defeats it's own purpose and topples
over by virtue of it's own weight. Mo-
only would a national imperialistic
policy in finance be repugnant to the
great rank and file Of this country,
but it would be sharply and vigorously
attacked in the very financial centers
here where such plans are sometimes
supposed to originate.

Light" by Percy N. Cox. The last
named composer is a member of the
local chapter, although at present re-
siding elsewhere. This piece was rem
dered with telling effect by the
choir, their fine shading adding much
to it's success. The soloists in these
selections were Nancy Williamson.
contralto, and Louis L. Annis, tenor.
An interesting incident in the serv-
ice was the reading by the congrega-
ton of the Declaration of the Reli-
gious Principles" of the guild. It sets
forth their determination to promote
accord between the minister and choir
and pledges themselves to devout con-
duct and the advancement of Chris
tan worship.

MANY. Arrested
FOR PROTESTING
FASCIST REGIME

GORILLA VECCHIA, Oct. 20 (By
MaiD Hundreds of workers who
protested against the recent wage
slashes decreed by Mussolini have
been arrested by company of cara
bineers and Fascist militia and jailed.
Two workers in Carrare were arrested
by the militia for distributing non
Fascist papers.
The arrest follows the falling of
twenty-five Communists and socialists
at Navarro who were charged with
distributing leaflet, describing the
high cost of living and the recent
wage cut decree. Five persons were
arrested at Campello Monti for sing
ing the "Red Flag"
The wave of arrests has increased
as the result of widespread unrest
following the wage cut. A number of
sporadic outbreaks have occurred in
villages in various sections of the
country but have been suppressed by
the Fascist militia.

Mexico 10 Select
Able Delegation
For Havana Meet

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 14.-Antici-
pating a clash with the United States
over American policies in Latin Amer
lea, the Gales government is careful
ly selecting its best diplomats for the
PAM American Conference at Havana
in January.
The selection of highly-trained
American diplomats like Charles
Evans Hughes, Ambassador Fletcher,
and Dwight Morrow, formerly affili-
ated with ]. p Morgan and Company
by the United States has made the
selection of representative by the
Gales Government particularly
careful one.
Altho no official announcement has
yet been made it is believed that Fer
nando Gonzales Roa, who headed the
Mexican delegation at the pre-recog-
milton conference in 1928, will proEab-
ly attend the conference. Isidro Fab
ella, author of a number of books
analyzing the role Of American impe-
rialism, will also be q delegation
member, it is believed.

THE universities were under czarism
= and under the Provisional Govern
ment bourgeois citadel where tres
passers" were not admitted. A work
er could not even think of entering
university as he rarely finished his
elementary two classes, let alone any
thing above that.
The October Revolution opened
wide the doors of the universities for
the tOilers. In August, 1918, the
Soviet government abolished by de-
cree all obstacles set up for the work
ers in the course of tens Of years in
entering the universities by the pro-
pertied classes. That moment, Aug
ust, 1918, marks the beginning of a
prolonged struggle for the university,
but only the beginning. The struggle
did not at all end with the declara-
ton that the Soviet universities have
"open DOORS" In the second half of
1918, intensive agitation was carried
on in the Moscow mills and factories
among workers for the prOletarian-
ization of the universities. A particu-
larly great role was played in this
agitation by the then small fraction
of Bolshevik students. Thanks to
this agitation and enormous gravita-
ton to the universities about 1000
workers from the bench entered the
Commercial Institute alone. These
workers constituted the first detach-
ment of worker students. This de-
tachment may be considered as the
first step towards the proletarianiza-
ton of the universities.
However, the proletarianization of
the universities at given stage soon
revealed alongside the positive fact
ors also some negative factors. For
instance, the worker students were
not sufficiently prepared for uni
versity studies. 1t is quite natural
therefore, that after the first wave
of enthusiasm some had to drop out.
Then it was decided to organize in
connection with the universities
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-11-15
Liberation of Science Under Soviet Rule

workers faculties which were to
serve as preparatory schools for the
universities. In 1919 such prepare
tory schools were organized on
authorization OF the Peoples Com
missariat for Education in all uni
versities. Some workers faculties
were organized as Independent insti-
tutions.
In the course of the subsequent
years, the workers faculties became
splendid instrument for the prole-
tarianization and radical reorgani-
cation of the universities. In 1852
there were $4,000 students IN the
workers faculties of the Russian So
cialist Federated Soviet Republic.
Throughout the USSR the number of
students in the workers faculties
was considerably higher; there were
$4,000 students studying in 100
faculties. The number Of women
constituted about Is per cent. The
social composition of the students
in the RSFSR was $50 per cent
workers, 1873 per cent peasants and
~ per cent people not engaged in
physical employment.
After finishing the term in the
workers faculties, the workers enter
one university or another from
where they graduate as captains OF
industry, agriculture, etc. Some OF
the workers faculty students enter
technical schools where they receive
a high school technical education.
There are in the Union of Socialist
Soviet Republics $50 technical schools
with 92,445 students.
The social composition of the tech
meal schools is characterized by the
following figures: 20.S per cent work
ers, 1872 per cent peasants, 1873 per
cent office workers. S.7 per cent mis-
cellaneous. The workers and pea
SAINTS constitute a najority MT only
in the industrial technical schools,
but in the technical schools in gem
eral.
We have the same picture also in
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-11-15

the universities. At the beginning of
1926-27 there was the following social
competition in the universities of the
Russian Socialist Federated Soviet
Republics: pa per cent workers. 25.9
per cent peasants, 37.5 per cent Of
flee workers, 81 per cent people of
free professions. H. per cent artisans.
l.S per cent nOn-labOring elements,
90 per cent miscellaneous. In 1862
the proletarian elements have in
creased still further in the universe
ties. Suffice it to say that the work
ers and peasants constitute in 1927,
10 per cent of the newly accepted
students.
The number of universities in the
L. s. s. X. is at the present time 1856,
whereas before the revolution there
were only 80 G914-l5, the number of
students in the Soviet universities is
80 per cent greater than in the uni
versities before the revolution.
What do these "dry" figures re-
veal? They show that the Soviet
government has brought into life the
slogan Science to the people" that
this slogan is not Inscribed on the
walls of the First Moscow State Uni
versity, the oldest university in Rus
STA in vain.
The Child of the October Revolution
Perhaps in no sphere of cultural
creative work has the October Revo-
luton had as much influence as in the
sphere of pre-school age education.
IT, education of pre-school age
children is truly child Of the Octo-
Der Revolution. Tremendous work
has developed in the sphere of giving
a collective rearing to children in the
kindergartens, mother and child
homes, and other similar institutions
in the U. S. S. X. In these institu-
tons the children learn to perform
work suitable to their physical capa-
bilities and to engage in free creative
work. They perform these things in
games and in healthy atmosphere
|of realistic familiarization of the
