RED YOUTH CONGRESS
VIEWS COLONIAL WORK

(Wreless to the Daily Worker.)
MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., Sept. a.
A report on the work in the colonies
by Fokin, of the Executive Commit
tee of the Young Communist Inter
rational, marked the thirteenth ses-
sion of the Young Communist Con-
gress, which opened under the chair
manship of Zam, of the. United
States.
"The national revolutionary move
ment plays a role which is a supple
mentary force for the world revolu-
ton, but during the course of its
development" Fokin declared, it
plays a directly revolutionary role.
The task of the Young Communist
International is to win the masses
of the working youth in the colonies.
Leagues in Colonies.
2
Leagues exist in most colonies,
but only in China is the League a
mass organization. The working
conditions of the youth in the colo
nies are terrible and basis exists
for the Communist youth move
ment. The young Communists must
also win the left wing of the intel
lectual youth. The national revolu-
tionary youth movement only de-
velops where no basis exists for
Young Communist Leagues.
Ferrat, of France, then made the
co-speech, chiefly concerning the
in-American countries. "1nten-
sified class struggle in Latin-Amer-
ica caused instructions led by the
petty bourgeois, which, however,
was incapable of carrying the rev.
olution to its logical end. The pro-
letariat must therefore win hege-
mony.
Work Among Peasants.
"The situation of the working
youth is bad," continued Ferrat,
"and the conditions of the working
young peasants are worse. Our
tasks in Latin-America are the Gre

C|TLOW SPEAKS
IN PITTSBURGH
Lewis Tools Come to
Break Up Meet

PITTSBURGH (By MaiD.-
Among those present at the cleo
tion meeting of the Workers (Com-
Party, at which BENJAMIN
Gitlow, ice-presidential candidate,
spoke, were Pat Pagan, reactionary
president of District 5, of the United
Mine Workers, and Robertson, vice
president of the Pennsylvania Fed
Grafton of Labor. Both appeared to
have come to attempt to break up
the meeting.'
Pagan and Robertson were the
leaders of the gang of 300 Lewis
thugs brought to Pittsburgh last
week to aid the police to break up
the convention of the National
Miners Union. Had not the meet
ing hall been so packed with mill
tant workers, there is no doubt that
the labor misleaders would have at
tempted to break up the meeting.
Gitlow pointed out the situation
of the workers, and particularly of
the miners, and the struggles they
have been carrying on in order to
improve their conditions. He showed
low the reactionary Lewis admin
istration has sold them out, with
the aid of the courts and police.
l. Amter, district secretary of the
Party in Ohio, dealt with the danger
If war, and pointed out that while
Kellogg went to Paris to sign a
treaty to OUTLAW" war, the U. S.
congress appropriated S2,200,000,000
for war purposes.
