surrender their freedom and national
independence, who insist upon resist

Challenge to American Workers
The lives of these three hundred
Nicaraguan toilers and trade union
lists, sacrificed by American capital
lists to increase their profits, consti-
tute challenge to the solidarity
honesty and integrity of every work
ingman and working woman in the
United States. The blood of the
Niearaguan patriots. and fighters for
their national independence and free
dom is crying out to the American
workers and their labor movement
for the most determined struggle
against the American invasion of Nj
caragua, against the brutal regime of
American imperialism.
The Trade Union Educational
League, speaking for the left wing
and militant workers in the Ameri-
man labor movement, calls upon you
to raise your voice in the most ener-
getic condemnation of the killers and
murderers of the Nicaraguan toilers
and trade unionists. Every trade
union in the country must adopt reso-
buttons of protest against the inva-
sion of Nicaragua demanding the i'm
mediate withdrawal of all American
armed forces and the punishment of
the United States officials guilty for
the slaughter.
Support Nicaragua Labor.
The demand of the Nicaraguan
Federation of Labor must be sup
ported by the entire organized labor
movement in the United States.
Delegate De la Selva declared before
the congress of the Pan-American
Federation of Labor now held in
Washington, d. c., that the laboring
people of Nicaragua will not submit
to imperialism. that they will rather
die fighting the American marines
than become slaves in their own
country.
The Pan-American Federation of
Labor, must condemn in no uncertain
terms American imperialism in Nj
caragua. 1t must give it fullest sup
port to the demands of Nicaraguan
Federation of Labor that the Ameri-
can imperialists withdraw from and
keep their hands off Nicaragua. The
half hearted, insincere and evasive
efforts of William Green on behalf
of the Nicaraguian toilers must be
substituted by energetic and honest
struggle of the organized labor move
ment against American Imperialism
and it's bloody agents in Nicaragua.
Pass resolutions of protest and
condemnation of the killing of Nj
caraguan tOilers and trade uniOnists
by the armed forces of American i'm
perialism.
Stand by and support the demands
of the Nicaraguan Federation of La
Dor.
Demand the punishment and re-
moval from office of the American
officials guilty in the Nicaraguan
slaughter.
Demand the immediate withdrawal
Of all American military forces from
Nicaragua.

IN International Cooperative Day I
" happened to be in military camp
about 35 miles from Moscow. Here as
well as in all parts of the Soviet
Union, judging from the reports in
the newspapers, this holiday was cele-
brated with the greatest of enthus-
iasn.
And not only with enthusiasm, but
with their famous talent for putting
theory to practice, the Soviet Rus
slams make use of this day to increase
the strength and membership of the
cooperatives. Our meeting wound up
with the organization of camp CO.
operative. Two Red soldiers (this
was rather small camp were elect
ed to take charge. This committee
will get in touch with the main Red
Soldiers Cooperative already existing
in the vicinity and it is expected that
within few days the Red soldiers
in this camp will be spending their
pin money in their own cooperative
"Lavka." (booth).

village, as we'll as for clubs and other
cultural work, the cooperative be-
comes the very heart of the social
life of the village.
0F late a campaign for lower prices
has been started and great num-
Der of cooperatives have already
achieved decrease of 10 per cent in
| their prices. AS in all other campaigns
carried on in the Soviet Union, it is
the rank and file worker which is
drawn into activity to insure its sue
cess: Revision commissions composed
of members of the cooperatives are
elected at cooperative membership
meeting to survey the apparatus of
the administration the methods of
buying and distribution, etc. These
report to the membership and bring
concrete suggestions for lowering the
cost of production and distribution
and thus the prices.
Thus while the workers and peas
ants cooperatives in capitalist coun-
tries must aid the workers and all
toilers in their struggle against their
imperialist exploiters, if they are to
fulfil their real task, the cooperatives
/ in the Soviet Union have as their task
to draw in the millions of workers and
peasants of the union into active par
/ ticipation in the building Of Socialism
in the First Workers Republic.
MOSCOW, July 2. (By Mail.) -
In reference to the International Day
Of the cooperation the centres of CO.
operative systems have summed up
the results of their work during the
ten years of the existence of Soviet
power.
During these ten years the general
turnover of the consumers co-opera-
ton has grown from 500 million to
1000 million roubles yearly, while
the number of shareholders increased
five times, actually reaching 125 mil
lions
Seven Million Homes.
Agricultural cooperation counts
10000 cooperative societies uniting
million peasant homes, which is al
most one third of all the peasant
population of the union. Two thirds
of the co-operated rural population
are united in mass agricultural soci
cites. Out of the 81 thousand odd
tractors operating in the USSR 80
per cent belongs to the agricultural
cooperation.
The home industrial cooperation,
which is the youngest branch of Sow
ct cooperation, actually units 20 per
cent of all the handicraft workers, or
about 100000 persons. The general
turnover of the home industrial CO.
operation is $50 million roubles, while
the yearly production amounts to q
500 Million roubles.
War Protection.
n . inting out the development of
the Soviet cooperative movement,
PRAVDA writes: "Should the USSR
be directly faced by the danger of
war the cooperative movement will
be in position to assure the regular
circulation of goods within the coun-
try and help the Red Army on the
front. In the contingency of war it
will not by any means be necessary
that the USSR revert to primitive
methods of distribution which prev

if necessary curtailing superfluous
outlay the USSR will carry on, on
modern lines, the development of So

the cooperative movement will rend-

going thru far reaching crisis now,
and needs the hearty cooperation of

ment of nearly all religious faiths iN
the United States, as part of their
boys work program. A total of So

respects the convictions of others
in matters of custom and religion.
1t is non-sectarian in its attitude,
claiming that it is the duty of the
parents and church to take care Oh
the religious training of the boy.

tions is being promoted through the

under the direction of several car
dinals, archbishops and bishops of
the Catholic dioceses in the United
States.

noting Boy scout extension among
Jewish institutions. Nearly all OF

cent list including the following
churches: Disciples of Christ, Metho
dist Episcopal, Methodist Episcopal
South, Northern and Southern Bap-
tist, Lutheran. Presbyterian, Epis
copal, United Brethren and Chris
tian churches.
Scouting trains the youth to take
part in community and civic affairs,

DOUGLAS STOLEN CAR
WILL BE SOLD IN TEX.

Local police are in receipt of a
letter from the Fort Worth, Texas.
roliee headquarters in which it IS
stated that they have in their pos
session Ford car which was stolen
in Douglas on May 5, 1926.
Police authorities in the Texas
city say that owing to their In
ability to trace the ownership OF
the car, the storage chares have
scared to such an extent that it is
doubtful if the value of the car
is sufficient to pay the storage
charges, which amount to $674o.
1t is thought that instructions will
be given to Fort Worth authorities
to sell the car at auction, inasmuch
as mechanics there have stated that
the value is below $65.
