surance of all fields guarantees the
economic position of the worker.
6. Besides these economic advances
there are many important cultural
advances; decrease in illiteracy; in
crease in school attendance; the wild
er publication Of books and papers;
the rising cultural life of the small
nationalities.
Economic development in the Sow
ct Union has been put on a scientific
basis. "The principal feature which
distinguishes economic activity in the
U. S. S. r. from that of all other
countries is the process of economic
development which is conducted ac-
cording to plan" Rykov said. "Plan-
ming for one year ahead is now made
quate. The scope of the work is much
wider and plans are now being drawn
up for a much longer period ahead
Under the five year plan which has
been adopted, the national income
will be increased by 81 per cent in
five years; the monetary income of
the workers by 26 per cent; the real
income of the workers by 81 per cent;
the income of peasants will be in
creased, counting price reductions, by
81 per cent.
The realization of this years pro-
gram "will strengthen the socialist
elements of national economy" If il
is carried through it will represent a
great achievement for the whole
working class.

WOMAN COTTON MILL
WORKER TELLS OF LIFE
By BLANCH O'CONNoR, Fed. Press

Gastoria, II. Give can't get a
house from the mill. We've only been
married few years, and haven't any
children old enough to work in the
mill. And the Manville-Jenckes peo-
pie insist there must be at least three
workers in the family before they'll
rent a house."
These words came from a Young
woman who looked 80, but said she
was p. She had worked four years
IN the Loray mln of the Manville-
Jenckes company, which also controls
cotton mills in Rhode Island. Her
husband works in the Loray mill, too,
Wherc she met him several years az.

tories, one for the men and the other
Tor women, but none for young mar

we'r going to move into a boarding

for a room at the dormitorv with the
understanding that three roorle will

to pay the extra 80 cents. The COM

A boy takes the records of our output

some more. No wonder we don't do
much to help ourselves. We haven't

PRES. RYKOV REVIEWS
GAINS MADE BY SOVIET
BY SCOTT NEARING, Fed. Press

Soviet economy has been on a
steady upgrade since 1920-21. In
most lines it has already passed the
level of 1913 (pre-war), and it is still
developing. This was the keynote of
the report by A. |. Rykov, president
OF the Council OF Peoples Commits
saries to the International Congress
of the Friends of the U. S. S. r.
Within the past decade Russian
economy has passed through several
stages. From 1914 to 1917 it slump
ed under the pressure of the world
war. Unfit locomtives made up 20
per cent Of the total in 1917. Wages
had risen slightly, but much less rap
idly than the cost Of living Produc-
ton was down 30 per cent. Between
1917 and 1920, revolution, civil war
and famine all took their toll. In
dustrial output in 1920 was 20 per
cent of the 1913 level. Cotton pro
duction was 5 per cent of pre-war;
railway car production was "a per
cent of pre-war; 55 per cent of the
locomotives were out of repair. Even
agricultural production, in 1921. was
but AZ per cent of pre-war.

In the light of the recent reOvlt

the massacre and execution Of hum

BY SCOTT NEARING
Canton ~ (FP) ~ Chinese trade
unions are having their own troubles.
Chang Tso-lin in the north forbids
them entirely. SO do the British in
Hongkong. On a Saturday in Sep
tember a group Of twenty men was
rounded up in Peking charged with
carrying on agitation. If they are
convicted and are regarded as "dan-
gerous," they will be shot. Literally
it is as much as a mans life is worth
to be engaged in the organization of
unions where the feudal militarists
are in complete control, as they are
in Peking.
Incidentally it is this group with
which the United States government
is maintaining diplomatic relations.
Literally, the United States minister
to China is minister to Chang Tso-
lin, and Chang Tso-lin stands, in Chi
ma, where Governor Fuller and Judge
Ihayer stand in the United States.
Unions have somewhat better
time in the South and West of China.
provided they are the right kind of
unions.
Tang Shen-tse, who is the most i'm
po1tant military figure in the Yang
tse valley, has his headquarters in
Wuhan. A FIVE months ago Wuhan
was IN the conrtol of the 'lefts." This
week a special story on the labor
movement in Wuhan, sent out by the
official propaganda bureau, states
that the Government tried its best
to promote the labor movement" The
writer Of the story add: "Any radi-
cal action on the part of labor is now
strictly forbidden"
Shanghai is the most important
business city in China. Until March.
1927, the General Labor Union of
Shanghai, with about a quarter of a
million members, was probably the
most important single factor in the
labor life of the city. Under the pres
ent regime the unions have been ere
organized, The Committee on Re-
organization, after making a bitter
attack on its predecessor because of
Communist domination" declares In
printed manifesto that "the employ
ers have nothing to fear from the re-
organized labor union, but instead
they have much to gain" The mani
festo adds: "While its mission is to
protect the legitimate interests of the
working class, the new union coun-
tenances no hostility toward the en-
