The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-09-05

This historic conference of revo-
lutionary youth, decided that start
ing with that year, every September
6 would be turned into an Interna-
tional Day of Youth, upon which the
young workers Of the entire world
would demonstrate against capital
ist militarism and imperialist war
and for the revolutionary overthrow
of the whole capitalist system, which
makes these wars inevitable.
In 1919, there was held in the
City of Berlin, another congress of
the revolutionary working youth,
which was a continuation of the
Stuttgart first international con-
ference of revolutionary youth in
1900 and Berne conference, and
which eliminated in the formation
Of the Young Communist Interna-
tional. This new international af-
filiated with the Communist Inter
national and during the 10 years
of its existence it has carried on
the best revolutionary traditions of
Karl Liebknecht, of the Internation-
al Youth Day and of the entire in
ternational revolutionary movement
of the working youth.
Pacifism, War Preparations and the
War Danger.
At the present time we find that
the danger of an imperialist war is
greater than ever before. Especially
is the danger great of an imperial
ist attack upon our only Union Of
Socialist Soviet Republics. The
present provocative attacks upon the
Soviet Union on the part of the
firelings of world imperialism-the
Chinese generals, is the best proof
of how far the imperialists can go
and how ready they are to attack
our only Socialist fatherland.
Preparing for another world
slaughter, the imperialists find it
necessary to spread all kinds of
pacifist illusions. All the talk about
disarmament is only meant to de-
! ceive the mass of the workers. This
talk pursues the sole aim of build

slaughter.
The bourgeoisie understands we'll
that without the young workers it
will not be able to conduct any war.
We, therefore, see that in almost
every capitalist state the military
training of the youth is regulated
today by law. A: first the military
preparation of the youth was carried
on by private and "unpolitical' or
CARNATIONS beneath the banner Of
gymnastic and ,sport cl1b;. BIZ to-
day these neutral cloak, are being
cast aside, and the military organ
izations are being made the subject
of legal enactments.
The countries most active in the
military training Of the youth are
the United States, Great Britain
and France; Italy and Poland are
following their example. Here in
the United States military prepara-
tion is an obligatory subject in the
high schools and colleges. Shooting
stands are provided in the schools,
the colleges have their military
faculties, and the passing Of the
state examination depends on mill
tary knowledge. The number Of
young workers joining the Citizens
Military Training Camps increase
from year to year. The Reserve Of
ficers Training Corps is already a
well established institution in the
high schools and colleges. Militar-
ism has assumed stupendous dimen-
sions in the schools and universities
Of our "pacifist" United States.
| In Great Britain, as in the United
States, the military training is given
by teachers provided by the army
administration. The British officers
training corps counts $4,000 cadets,
whilst further 10000 boys are be-
ing trained as non-commissioned Of
ficers in the Young Mems Corps.
Besides this, there are also boys
rifle clubs, which train their 2OO,-
900 members in shooting and drilling

ed five great powers have grown ten
and twelve times compared with
1914, and show a tendency to rapid
further growth.

As for the navies of the above
mentioned five great Powers, we
must especially emphasize the nu-
merical growth Of the amount of
cruisers, aircraft-carriers and SUBJ
marines. There has been lately con-
siderable ravalry between the United
States and Great Britain with re-
gard to naval construction. This is
particularly evident in the construc-
tion of cruisers Of the so-called
Washington type, with a displace-
ment Of about 10000 tons.
1t is very characteristic to note,
by the way, that the United States
confirmed the new building program

When we add to the above official

machine-guns, infantry, tanks, and
especially the use Of destructive

bend already how far world imper-
ialism is ready for the approaching
world war and how destructive this
war will be. The future world war,
for which the imperialist states are
preparing SO stubbornly and system-
atically, will exact from the working

more than ever before, the working

Not only will they demonstrate
against imperialist war, but they
will also demonstrate their solidar-

Historical Background.
On September 6, 1915, at the
height of the last Imperialist World
War, when the Second International
and the socialist parties had already
betrayed the workers, there was
held in the City of Bern, Switzer-
land, conference of representatives
of the then revolutionary Socialist
Youth international. This confer
ence was called to take up the ques-
ton Of fighting the war and mobil-
izing the Youth for a revolutionary
struggle against the capitalist sys-
tenn.
The Berne conference was the
first gathering of revolutionaries on
an international scale since the out
break of the war. The conference
was organized mainly by Karl Lieb-
knecht, who together with the So
cialist Youth organizations and the
Russian Bolsheviks, were the only
ones who were carrying on revo
lutionary, struggle against the las
imperialist war.

.SNOOT BACKING
SHORT SESSION
MOVE
By GEORGE r. HOLMES
International News Service

President HooVer's insistence that
Congress "step on it, in the hand
ling of its very abbreviated pro.
gram for the special session, wind
up it's work and get out OF the
Capital as soon as possible, had
Congressional leaders in somewhat
of a Quandary today.
However, they are dutifully going
to make the effort-even to the ex-
tent of abandonment of public tar
IF hearings by the Senate.
News that Senator Smoot. (R) OF
Utah, chairman of the Senate Fin
ance Committee and highe: of the
high tariff Republicans in the Sen
ate. favored this unprecedented step
as one way of shortening the ses.
sion spread throughout the Capitol
today and caused no little grum-
bling on the part of Senators in
terested in specific schedules.
Stickler For Privilege
Whether the Headers can ac-
complish it or not seemed problem
atical. There never has been
tariff bill passed without extensive
public hearings at both ENDS OF
the Capitol, and If the Fordney-Mc
Cumber bill can be amended with
out them 1t will mark radical de-
parture from traditional procedure:
The House has already devoted
some seven weeks to tariff hearings
and its bill is in the final process
of completion. Ordinarily, the
House would pass the bill, send 1t
along to the Senate, and the
Finance Committee of the upper
House would proceed to hold exten-
sive public hearings to assauge the
feelings of those who felt they had
not been treated right in the House
measure.
Senator Smoot has always been
a stickler for Senatorial prerogatives
in the matter of tariff legislation.
That he should now favor the
abandonment of Senate hearings
indicating that the Senate plans to
rather meekly accept the House
bill-startled the capital almost as
much as If the Washington Monu-
ment should suddenly tumble into
the. Mall.
Pressure to Be Strong
what is the use," inquired
Smoot. after a secret meeting of
the Finance Committee, "of going
over all the matter which has been
heard by the Ways and Means
Committee?"
Abandonment of public hearings
by the Senate admittedly would
shorten the session by several
weeks at least However, when
Senatorial constituents, disappointed
by failure to win contested rates
before the House, begin to bear
down" on Senator'S for the oppor-
tunity to publicly present their
cases, there may be found consider
able 'use" to go over it all again.
President Hoover wants Congress
out of the Washington trenches not
later than June Is, if possible.
There are only a few optimists who
| believe this can be accomplished
some pessimists believe Congress
will be here when dog days roll
around.
II the Presidential influence, how,
ever, is strong enough to compel
the testy Senate to abandon it's
time-honored prerogatives. in this
| case, maybe the optimists wall
prove correct after all. The bet
ting is, however, that they won't
be right.
