The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1928-05-10
BY PAUL CROUCH.

For years, my dream had been of
seeing the Soviet Union and life in a
country ruled by the working class.
At last, the dream came true and
was able to spend more than three
months, seeing with my own eyes the
progress being made by the Russian
workers and the construction of So
cialist society. In Moscow, Nizhni-
Novgorod, Tambov, Rostov and Nov
orossisk, I visited factories, schools,
workers clubs, private homes, Red
Army barracks, etc,
Workers Clubs.
In the. Soviet Union, l was often
asked: ''What has impressed you most
in this country" My reply was:
THE workers clubs" The revolu-
tion has given industrial and poht
ical freedom to the workers OF the
U. S. S. r., has reduced the working
day from twelve to seven hours, given
the opportunities of education to the
young workers freed women from
their formerly intolerable condition
and brought many innumerable bene-
fits. But to the visitor, the workers
clubs appear as the concrete express
sion of the new social life.
Among the many clubs l visited
was that Of the railroad workers in
Moscow. The building contains more
than ninety rooms. A hall for meet
ings, movies and other affairs seats
more than 1000 people. This club has
a library of $4,000 books, which are
constantly being exchanged with
other clubs. Any books desired by
workers are purchased for the library
An American would hardly think of
a "club" as a school, but in this club
there are classes in music, art,
languages English and Esperanto),
and other cultural and industrial sub
jects.
A special department of the club
is for young workers. Also, there are
bomsomol organizations in this club
(as well as all other clubs), which
give special attention to the prob
lams Of the youth in the railroad in
Gustry and protect their interests.
The club has a nursery where the
goung children Of workers are taken
care Of free Of charged while the
parent attend classes of social affairs
during the evenings and holidays.
Other nurseries exist in all factories
where the children are taken care Of
during the working hours of the
e
nurseries in the Central Postoffice of
Moscow.
Schools Self Governed.
The schools in the Soviet Union are
great surprise to all visitors. The
system Of instruction is entirely diff
ferent from that Of capitalist coun-
tries and far more efficient. Schools
in the Soviet Union are self governed
and are controlled BY committees Of

ALL. in South
.Segregates the
Negro Workers
By THOMAS L. DABNEY.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, (FP) May
although organized labor's gen
eral policy is to stress the need of
labor solidarity regardless of race,
color or sex, southern white labor is
to a large extent advocating separate
unions for white and Negro workers.
In this the racial traditions of the
south are being followed. A large
number of Negro workers also favor
separate unions for themselves, more
on account of unsatisfactory expert
ence with organized white labor than
from deliberate choice.
White labor leaders give varying
reasons for their preference for
separate Negro unions. One very
astute labor "leader," perhaps more
astute, asserts that the Negro needs
the experience in leadership and
direction which separate unions offer
to exceptional Negroes in the labor
movement. Still others say that the
two races can get along better if both
have separate unions.
Mixed locals however are formed
with little hesitation wherever local
labor conditions dictate such policy,
tho white labor "leaders" are very
cautious in their dealings with Negro
labor, lest they be accused of pro-
noting social equality between the
races.

feated Imperial Russia in the war of
1904-5, thus taking Russia's place as
the exploiter of South Manchuria.
The 81 Demands
1t was these three victories-over
China in 1896; over Russia in 1905
and over Germany in 1915 that led
Japanese imperialists, in the spring
of 1915, to present to China the IA
nous "Twenty-one Demands" under
which all of northern China became
little better than a Japanese protec-
torate.
Chinese business interests, fearing
fate like that which had overtaken
Korea, began struggle for "inde-
pendence" that led to the boycott of
Japanese goods in 1919 and to an
intermittent conflict that broke out

willing to share the booty with its
rival.
The war has long history.
Japanese began it in 1894: the Jap
anese-C Chinese war. China was badly
defeated after only few months of
fighting. Japan helped herself to
the Island of Formosa (entirely peo-
pied by Chinese) and demanded the
independence" of Korea. In 1911
Japan annexed Korea.
Imperial Germany stole a part of
Shantung from China in 1879. Dur
ing the world war imperial Japan
stole this property from imperial
Germany. The imperial "peace mad
ness" in 1919, at Paris, agreed that
Japan should keep Shantung.
Imperial Japan, meanwhile, had de-

words that forever place the two

The reaction to the heaviest penal

the faces Of the two young murder

was apparent to close observers on
the face of Raymond. No change of

part Of the defense. All of the de-
