BRITISH POLICE
HUNT WORKERS IN
SINGAPORE RAIDS
IA Communists Jailed;
Others Sought

LONDON, Aug. 13.-According
to reports in the Times the Singa-
pore police have succeeded in car
rying out raids against the Com
munists in big style recently. In
Singapore ID leading Communists
are in jail, says the Times, others
have been chased out, and the po-
lice have published the names of
fourteen other Communists whom
they are seeking, and who are re-
ported to be members of the Work
ers' Organization of Nanjang, of
the Malay Communist Party and of
the revolutionary committee of the
Koumintang.
Whether it is actually a question
of the persecution of Communists
is hard to determine. 1t is known,
however, that under tn ewhite ter
ror every proletraian fighter is
called a Communist.

SUPERIOR YOUTH
DISCUSS NUCLEI
Over 100 Delegates
Attend Conference

SUPERIOR, Wis, Aug. 49,
Over one hundred delegates, repre-
senting many important industries,
attended the first Industrial Con-
ference of the Young Workers
(Communist) League of the Su-
perior sub-district. The conference
was called to lay the basis for the
building of shop and mine nuclei.
Young miners from the Iron Range,
youth from the lumber mills, paper
mills, saw mills, etc, were present,
as we'll as a large delegation of
youth from the farms. For the first
time the problem of organizing the
league on the basis of nuclei was
thoroughly discussed.
The two reporters were Comrade
Sam Reed, sub-district organizer of
the Young Workers League, and 7.
Foley, representative and reporter
for the Workers (Communist)
Party. In the discussion that fol-
lowed it was clearly shown that
there are thousands of young work
ers exploited under the most ter
rible conditions, and that the league
can only approach and lead the
youth, by first establishing contacts
and then building the league on the
basis of shop nuclei in the many
important industries in this district.
