ness to fight prevailed in the Por-
tugese household. Emma did not
go back to work. The next morning
all spindles in the American Print
ing Company were idle and the mill
looked like huge lifeless mass of
steel and concrete.
:
Emma Roderiques, a fresh burn
ing spirit in the class struggle, came
to New York together with her fell
low delegate strikers from Fall
River and New Bedford to join
hands with the other determined
textile workers of New Jersey
Pennsylvania and New York into q
new National Textile Union.
She marched into the convention
hall, with the red bandanna of the
Pioneers around her neck, and the
walk and look of a fighter who had
come to build. When the fourteen
year-old worker, thinned by the
bobbins of the textile mill, spoke tc
the workers in the hall, she spoke
with the weight of 10000 New Eng.
land workers, with the spirit and
CUTS of fighters who will gain their
victory. In that hall where the
spirit of determined struggle mixed
with the lightheartedness of people
who enjoy the fight because they
know that their fight is universal
and necessary, she was just as much
at home as on the picket line in Fall
River. Workers can understand
Emma, for workers who fight are
as close as people of the same fam
lily. And Emma talked the language
that is close to the heart of every
working class fighter, direct, sim
pie and full of the sincerity of q
just struggle. The convention
adopted Emma as their child, as
their child of genius, for as she
stood there she was not only an in

textile strikers.

WORKING CLASS
YOUTH RESPOND
TO MEET CALLS
Many Factories to
Send Delegates

The Working Youth Conference,
which will take place this Saturday
and Sunday, Sept. 20 and 80, in the
Labor Temple, 18th st. and End
Ave-, has evoked a good response
from many hundreds of young
workers working in many factories
in New York.
Tens of thousands of leaflets
have been distributed by the Work
ing Youth Conference in conjunction
with many local unions. The latest
leaflet to be put out was by the
Knitgoods Workers Union, Loca,
30, and the Youth Conference ad-
dressed to all young knitgoods
workers. Speakers from the Youth
Conference Executive Committee
have addressed many meetings of
local unions and youth clubs. Sing
er, plumbers helper, was present
last Tuesday night and spoke at
meeting of dental mechanics. Hell
fand, chairman of the Executive
Committee, spoke at a meeting of
unorganized young millinery work
ers. Letters have been sent in
from many young workers in KIein's
department store, from Nabisco,
from the American Sugar Refining
Co., and other factories.
The conference will undoubtedly
represent many young unorganized
workers in New York City. MANY
large factories of unorganized youth
will be there, and organized shops
which include young workers will
be represented at this conference.
The conference will be an impor-
tant step in the direction of organ
izing the unorganized young work
ers in New York City. 1t will be
the beginning of a campaign to
bring the message of militant union
ism to the hundreds of thousands
of youth workers in the city, and
from all indications it has already
aroused much discussion and inter
est on the part of the young work
ers,

at the conclusion of his speech.
One of the features of the eve
ming, which kept the workers in a
festive spirit throughout the dance,
vas the singing of youth revolu-
tionary songs under the leadership
Of Eric Burroughs, 16-year old Ne
gro youth and a member of the
brownsville Section of the Young
Workers (Communist) League. Bur
roughs, who acted as young leader
during the summer at the Workers
International Relief Children's
Camp at Wingdale, N. Y, led the
gathering through such songs as:
"That whole capitalist system,
THAT whole capitalist system.
That whole capitalist system,
at amt good enough for me!
TITS good for red hot mammas,
ITS good for Hebrew Shamus,
Its good for Norman Thomas,
But it amt good enough for mel"

 Senator Bingham contended that the bill would work out unfairly to the emergency officers by basing their disa bility compensation here the war instead of paying them as at present on basis of the de gree Of their disa ahility without re- gard to rank.
 Senator Bingham has prepared and has presented to the senate a list Of all the emergency army off cers who will benefit under the Ty- son bill giving their names, ad- dresses, present occupation. extent of disability, the amount of monthly compensation now paid and the amount they will receive under the Tyson bill.
 Edmond J. Caferty, Forestville clerk, permanent partial disability, will get increase from s3o to s1a5 month.

 Tyson Measure
BY GEORGE H. MANNING


 Washington Bureau Of the x. B. Herald) Washington, D. c, March 20 Eighteen Connecticut men who serv- ed as emergency officers in the army during the World War and now have q rating of permanent, total or par ;ial disability as q result of lnJur- ies sustained at the front will have their monthly allowance under the war veterans relief act materially increased if the house of represen- tatives passes the Tyson bill which has already been adopted by the senate.
 Five other Connecticut veterans now receiving S10o or s15o q month under permanent total disability rat ing will receive no increased al lowance under this bill.
 The Tyson bill puts disabled emergency army officers Of the World War on the same retirement basis as regular officers, provided they are 30 per cent disabled and held rank above second lieutenant, This bill which has the united support of the American Legion has been before congress nine years. II was passed by the senate Friday and it is expected the house will pass 1t before adjournment.
 Senator Hiram Bingham of Con- necticut and Senator David Reed Of Pennsylvania led bitter opposition 70 the bill In the senate but went down to final defeat when after many days debate the bill was adopted without a record vote.
 Both Bingham and Reed were emergency army officers during the war. Bingham held the rank of lieut.. colonel and Reed was a major
