Tracing of Youth Movement Through Three
Periods Analyses Movement of Today

al Youth Day as a symbol of the
international solidarity Of the toll
ing youth and as a day of demon
stration against militarism and
against war.
The Third period was brought
about by the post war temporary
sterilization of capitalism and the
growth of capitalist imperialism with
additional suppression of the work
ing youth and the continued decay
of the socialist party. This period
marked the foundation of the Young
Communist International at Berne
in 1915. Then came the Berlin Con-

a great step was made in the direc-
ton of reestablishing the Youth In
ternational.
The Berne Conference raised the
slogan of struggle against the
world war, then in progress; in this
way it remained true to the tradi-
tons and anti-militarist struggle of
the youth movement. The Berne
Conference must be regarded as a
milestone, not only in the history
of the youth movement but in the
development of the revolutionary
movements. 1t was the Berne Con-
ference that established Information

The Young Communist League of
District Two will commemorate In
ternational Youth Day, Friday,
Sept. 6, with mass meetings and
demonstrations which are to last
over the week end. Sept. CTS.
Sunday. September 8, there will be
held a joint rally by Districts Two
and Three in New Jersey. The
preparations are now being made to
make International Youth Day equal
the demonstrations of Red Day and
to bring the League before the thou
sands of young workers of New York
City.
The Fifteenth International Youth
Day is here. Today the young work
ers are the most oppressed section
of the working class but they are
no longer the most docile. A real
militant, revolutionary spirit pre-
walls throughout the ranks of the
working youth and it is this demon
strative desire and fighting spirit
that the Young Communist League
will lead this year on Youth Day.
The many factors that have given
rise to the proletarian youth move
ment throughout the world are found
principally in:
1. The development of industrial
technique, decentralization, with the
need for cheap and docile labor and
the inhuman exploitation of child
and youth labor.
2. The development Of imperial
ism in the modern capitalist state
and the construction, of huge mill
tary apparatus utilized to carry
through the imperialist policy of
territorial and market expansion and
for news sources of raw materials;
this accompanied by the suppression
Of militant labor.
These two factors gave rise to
varied forms of youth organizations
dating back to 1886 when a youth
organization was formed in Belgium,
which, formed on an economic de-
mands, centered its struggles against
militarism. Also from 1880 TO 1890
there grew whole series Of youth
movements in Germany which were
an important factor in the present
strength of the German youth move
| ment.
The development of the Interna-
tisnal Youth Movement can be
traced in three periods. First in
the foundation of the International
League of Socialist Youth Organiza-
tons at the First International
Youth Conference at Stuttgart in
1907. This period ended with the
sell-out of the working class by the
social democrats in Germany and
other capitalist countries. The Youth
Leagues and Youth International did
not follow the social democrats but
served as one of the most important
basis for the struggle against the
war and for the foundation Of the
Communist Parties under the Third
international.
The second period began with the
Berne Conference in 1915 which took
up the threads broken by the war
end the social democrat betrayal. 1t
was the Italian and Swedish Leagues
that made the initial steps for the
conference while the German, French
and Austrian Leagues declined Of
ficially to participate. In Germany
where the social democrats had
spewed their vilest poison section
Of the league split away from the
Central Committee and did not par
ticipate in any fashion. To the credit
of the Italian and Swedish leagues
who succeeded in carrying through
the Conference the bonds of interna-
tional proletarian youth solidarity
were not completely shattered and

commissioners court to route a
highway away from a town of more
than 200 inhabitants, because some
house members who voted for the
bond issue told them if they voted
against the measure that they
would retaliate by opposing the
constitutional amendment.
Senators against the bill backed
up suddenly and it was passed with
little opposition.
The pe~nitentiary concentration
bill will reach a showdown in the
house early next week. The senate
has concurred in the free confer
ence committee report. The COM
mittee virtually agreed to the Hol-
brook bill. backed by Governor
Moody, but a minority report was
filed by Representative King and
Senators McFarlane and Deberry
Representative Young, co-author OF
the house bill, almost dramatically
opposite to the senate measure, will
seek to have the house adopt the
minority report. He said today that
while the vote will be close, he be-
lieves the house will stand pat on
it's original vote in passing out his
bill. If the house should reject the
majority report, then penitentiary
legislation will be compelled tt
await a special session.
If the highway bond issue is not
submitted it will be dead for two
years since a proposed constitution
al amendment cannot be submitted
at a special session.

During the past five years nearly fifty
millions of dollars has been paid for cotton
to Valley planters.
Think of it 80. nearly $50, GOO, 100000.
Nearly TWICE as much as any two other
crops combined produced in the same pc
riod. Get your share Of future millions.
Plant more cotton.
There is no denying the fact that Cotton is
the most profitable crop raised IN the Val
lev. It is safer and surer. Prices are more
stable. There is a ready market for all
that can be grown. No waiting for your
money. Cotton in your field is like money
in the bank. Your banker will loan money
on cotton more readily than on any other
crop.
Prepare your land now for spring planting.
Be sure that your soil is stirred to a depth
OF several inches and left soft and smooth.
IF the ground is even slightly dry, it will
nav YOU to irrigate thoroughly before
n%Ianting. Plenty of moisture in the
ground before planting is your best crop
insurance.
But when you plant .... plant good seed.
Such varieties as Mebane, Acala, Lone Star
and Bennett, in our opinion, are best suited
to the Valley and from the money stand
point are far ahead Of "Half and Half"
%cottons. When you plant Standard Certi-
fled Seed you play safe. Short staple cot
ton is nearly always Improbable. Play
safe!
