Soviet Worker in "Dina,no" Factory Tells
of Is Years of Working Class Power

ia Finnish woman travelling abroad
was told that in keeping order
among the people, the Red Army
was very severe and ruthless. But
when she came to Russia herself
she was quite surprised to have
Red Army soldiers offer to help
carry her things for her on the
train. and show themselves willing
to assist her in any way that they
could.
"That is clear case" said
Lenin, "of how lying, malicious re-
ports have been passed along the
border about our Republic, and
about our Red Army. But we will
show them that we, the first to be
freed from the yoke Of Capital, will
lead all the oppressed of the earth
to freedom! Keep to your lines,
and we will be victorious!" finished
Lenin.
At the end of his speech thun-
derous applause again filled the
room. After that memorial eve
ming Of the speech of our Hitch
we began to work feverishly, and
we were finally victorious on every
front in our struggle to establish
Socialism.
From to 1900
Scarcely 80 years have passed
since the organization Of the Party
at our factory. From the small
nucleus of five persons 1t has grown
to be powerful Party Organize
ton numbering 1900 Communists
and $500 c -sommols. And our
factroy collective has grown from
few hundred workers, until the
time Of the Revolution, to an army
Of 10000 proletarian workers. We
have something to be proud of!
In the vicinity Of the factory, a
five-storied building is being con-
structed. A special bath-house has
been built, with swimming pool.
There is large modern laundry
for the workes. We have a sum-
mer theater too, and many-stor-
led dry goods store, and huge
stadium which seats from five, to
six thousand people.
A School for 5000 Children
Now we have a school for our
children, which can care for as
many as 5000 children. Our fac
tory has it's own restaurant, it's
own buffet,-where each of us for
quite a nominal sum can take our
breakfasts, dinners, and suppers.
We are now building Factory kit
chen.
On the place where the Simon
offsky Monastery once stood has
been raised the foundation of
new Palace Of Culture. Already
small theater has been constructed.
and a new big thaater housing
1000 people is being finished.
When the capitalists ran our fac
tory we only produced small,
three-phase type of motor, whereas
now we are perfecting the produc-

Negro Workers on Relief
Get Worst Treatment of All
Cash Given Only to White
Workers for Garden
Work in Birmingham
BY Group Of Negro Correspondents

BY Group Of Negro Correspondents.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-We, a group
OF colored workers Of the Depart
ment Of Public Welfare Of Birmng-
ham, which used to be the Red Cross,
are sending you our bill Of groceries
that they gave us for $3.50 for the
three days work in the garden at
Acipo. This is not enough to last
our family two weeks, as there are
eight in the family.
We need money to pay the house
rent with, as the Welfare won't see
after our house rent at all.
We are supposed to be getting 30c
a hour for our work, three days, $3.50,
two days s42o. But We are not get
ting a cent Of this.
No enc receives any money, but
the white people and they get grocery
orders too. We colored people only
get grocery orders for our work, and
not enough Of it. 1t is Of no use for
us to ask for more or we will be cut
OF.
Miss Roberta Morgan said that she
had orders from Washington to pay
us for food and clothing. Why doesn't
she treat the white and colored the
same way. Give the white people
clothes-give the colored people
clothes. Give the white people money,
give the colored people money.
Need Food to Eat.
7 do wish you could see the condi-
lions we colored people are in. We
need clothing, shoes, coal and, more
so, we need food to eat.
Please don't get sick and ask the
Welfare for a doctor. You will die
before they will send you one.
These white bosses can carry any
amount of vegetables out Of the
garden, but if we get any they will
cut us off the welfare. BY right we
ought not to be working at all for
what they are giving us. If you get
sick, you must report to your fore
man, and they claim that they will
send your grocery check to you. But
they don't do so. They will let no
one work in your place, but the white
people can do so.
We have asked the Welfare to give
US white checks to trade at any store,
or go to the Hill grocery store. They
won't do so. If they would We would
get more than what we are getting.
They give us a yellow check to go to
the company store where they can
issue it out to us like they want TO-
We can't say anything. So please
send some one down here and make
those people give us some clothes and
shoes, coal and wood and pay our
rent, or give us some money to pay
rent, and to give us some money to
eat.

NOVEMBER 7th, the sixteenth ami
~ verssry OF the Russian Revolution
is the day upon which the Young
Communist League will start its ma
tional recruiting drive. This drive
which will continue to January 18th
the anniversary of the murder OF
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxem-
burg, has as its aim: u To build the
League in the key factories of basic
industry; % To increase the member
ship of the League to a minimum OF
10000 as step in the direction OF
catching up to and surprising the
Party in size; 81 To increase the cir
culation of the YOUNG WORKER to
rs 900 weekly.
The entire Party must understand
the Importance of this drive Not
alone must the Party cooperate and
help the YCL in this drive, but must
accept the political responsibility for
It's successful conclusion. The period
of this drive must find the entire
Party, it's press and the revolutionary
mass organizations, actively working
among the generation Of working
class youth and recruiting into the
Young Communist League.
This makes necessary the following
practical steps:
Every leading Party committee
whether district, section OF unit,
should hold special discussion on the
Young Communist League recruiting
drive. These Party committees must
concretely take up the problems of
this drive and with the leading COM
mittees of the Young Communist
League and check up from week to
week on the outcome OF the drive.
.. Not alone must the Party COM
mittees help the Y.CL. in the drive,

are carried out only Wnen prOfltS
are in imminent danger, while in the
Soviet Union these principles are
constantly applied in practice and for
the sole benefit of the working class
and its individual members.
The preventive measures begin
with the care of the infant in the
system of creches nurseries) the
principles, methods and routines Of
which have been extensively described
by Alice Withrow Field in her book
Protection of Women and Children
in Russia" (Dutton, 3d. These nur-
series, which are found IN most OF
the factories and collectives, enable
the mothers to nurse their infants
while at work and may be credited
with a large part in the fall of the
mortality death rate) which recent
statistics show when compared to the
| terrible holocaust which prevailed
under the Czarist regime.
Working hours for juveniles from
IA to Is years Of age are restricted
to 4 hours, and those between Is and
18 are not allowed to work more than
hours. Child labor, which is so
prevalent In our own country, par
ticularly in the South, is, of course,
absolutely forbidden in Russia. What
this means to the coming generation,
only those who have observed the
terrible physical and mental degen-
Grafton Of the child factory slave
can fully appreciate.
In order to prevent undue strain,
the Juveniles output is fixed at three
quarters Of that of the adult. They
are not permitted to do overtime
nor night work and prohibited to
labor at nearly $50 dangerous jobs
and trades. Juveniles are compelled
to undergo medical examination at
least once year and they are al
lowed a two-weeks extra vacation,
in addition to the holidays customary
to adult workers.
The Institute for the Protection of
Mother and Child Is in charge of all
the Soviet Governments activities in
this field and the Comnlissariat of
Public Health cooperates with the
Institute In all matters pertaining to
women and children.
Regulations are equally enforced
regarding female labor. Expectant
and nursing mothers must not work
| overtime or nights. From the 5th
month Of pregnancy on, women have
to be employed in one definite place.
Nursing mothers are allowed 80 min
utes every 31s hours to nurse their
| children. These intervals are reck-
oned as part of the working time
and are paid for as such. Women
performing physical work, receive 8
weeks leave before and weeks after
their confinement; mental workers
get s weeks respectively, full wages,
are paid during these periods, and
a lump sum, amounting to half the
wage, is allotted to the newborn
baby. An additional sum amounting
to Ia of the wage is allowed during
the first nine months of the childs
life. A pregnant woman cannot be
discharged from work, except for
some extraordinary reason.
EVERY worker gets two weeks vaca-
L. ton after working for 5ls months.
If he is i'll, he gets more, sickness

about the Soviet Union are being
spread, in order to mislead the
workers and their children-blind-
fold them so that they. will not
know the truth about the real de-
velopment Of the Soviet Union.
1t is up to US, the class conscious
workers and boys and girls Of work
ers, to spread the truth about the
Soviet Union, in our shops, schools,
clubs, and among our friends and
neighbors. Through plays, poems,
stories, and drawings, we must
build a wall OF workers defense
around the Soviet Union and pre-
vent the capitalists from making
war on it.
AS we struggle for relief during
Open School Week, we can point
out that in the Soviet Union the
children do not have to struggle for
relief. We must point out that
there the schools are not run by
bosses, so they can put their ideas
across, but By representatives. Of
students, parents, trade unions, and
other workers organizations.
AS we struggle for food for
Thanksgiving, we can tell our class
mates that it is in the Soviet Union
that workers can be thankful for
everything.
In all our work, we must cele-
brate the victory of the workers
and poor farmers of the Soviet
Union!

(Tune Of Casey Jenes)
Come all you comrades if you'd

A story about brave Pioneer.
v. I. Lenin was this comrades
And in Soviet Russia he won his
fame.
V. I. Lenin led the Revolution

v. I. Lenin led the Revolution
And turned hell on earth into a
promised land!
The Tsar declared = slaughter in

The workers were the victims as
they always were before,
But the workers turned around
with their bayonets in their hands
And they srnote down all the ty-
rants In their native land!

HIGH SPOTS IN THE CHURCH
 LEAGUE

When Second Cong. last years champs, took over First Cong. for 3 games on Wednesday, they put themselves at the head of the league by one game, but Bachman says they will have to fight hard to keep that lead because they will be up against some tough teams before the season is over.
 Capt Klobedanz has been up in there these past weeks and led his team to victory on Tuesday with 8 well-earned $40. Doc Morrill, who plays hand-ball as part of his con- ditioning exercises for bowling fol- lowed closely with 336, while Backman was just @ little off color, only getting 315 this week.
 Skeets Sutherland, the boy from Maine who has never been known to get less than nine, was the only First Cong. man who could get 300 or over this week. Next week they expect to have some new men who will strengthen their team consid- erably. That's the old fight boys!
 When Mill Plain toppled St. Johns Lutheran for games on Wednesday night it brought Mill Plain from seventh place up to fifth place and dropped St. John into the places just vacated by the Harveymen. Anderson and Gallag- her, the unorthodox bowlers led the attack with 334 and 327, while Hubbard, Jr, Barker and Captain Harvey all rolled well over 300.
 Bill Jabs and Hans Reugg with their 344 and 33S were the high lights for St. Johns, with the rest of the boys not reaching the 3 century. ~~

SPORT WRITERS,
 OFFICIALS, FIELD TANNED IN NAUCY
Borough Fans Refute All Charges That Crosby
 "ShOuld Have Won"

Naugatuck, Nov 13-If the Cros- by team cannot win 8 game, the Waterbury sports writers will win it for them, is the opinion of Nau- gatuck football fans to-day. The locals are inclined to scoff at the idea that the Waterbury team should have won. They claim that if the game had been played in Naugatuck the Garnet would have won for the field down here was in fine shape while both sides are willing to admit that the muddy condition of the Hamilton park field ruined what might have been a really spectacular game.
 And while fans admit that Bal insky's score was a bad break for Crosby, they point out that Nau- gatuck was the victim of what they claim were two bad officiating breaks, either of which might have made change in the outcome of the game.
 Three Versions To Naugatuck fans near the play when Edmonds heaved a long pass O Scally in the first half, it ap- peared as though Scally caught the ball on the five yard line and that a Crosby player knocked the ball out of his arms. Some claim it constituted interference and that the locals should have been award ed the ball at that point while others said that it was @ tumble recovered by Crosby and that it should have been Crosby's ball on the five yard line. Which would have placed Crosby in hole. But none agreed with the officials de- cision that it was an incomplete pass.
 And in the last quarter when a Naugatuckian received g. pass over the sidelines he was tackled by Crosby player but the officials failed to apply any penalty de- spite the fact that the rule book provides a severe penalty for tackling a player after he goes off side.
 According to the Waterbury idea that Crosby deserved to win be- cause they had more first downs than Naugatuck, Notre Dame weeks ago and Dartmouth should nave IiiAIIHeu 1ale dIlu TI4HcetoH but they didn't, and no post mor- tems can change the result.
 The locals have a rest this week having no games scheduled. On a week from this coming Saturday they will play Stamford here. In the meantime they are devising ways and means to spur Water- bury to securing the athletic field, a drive for which was started sev- eral years ago.

 CLAIRMONTS TO CLASH

Naugatuck, Nov 13.-The Clair mont A. c. of Waterbury will fsce the All-Naugatuck team at the Recreation field next Sunday, it was announced to ?day by Manager William Stapleton of the local team. The Clairmonts played Naugy here previously and the con- test ended in a tie.
 The game scheduled to be play
 ed yesterday with the Seymour town team was called off because the Seymour team objected to play ing, claiming the field was too muddy after the Saturday nights snow, according to Manager Staple ton. However, MT Stapleton says that local fans will have another chance to see John White in action here, for the former high school star is expected to compete against the Clairmont aggregation next week.

 Rowe, Marvin and E. Swanson, the old reliables for First Baptist, respectively, led the losers, but O'Meara and Frank Phalen, the new additions to the Commercials, went on a rampage to score 8 clean cut victory. Phelan had high three for the evening, registering a nice 364. By virture of their vic- tory, the Commercials ride into a triple tie for the league lead, along with Nelson's Profs. and Divers Indies while the All-Stars are but one game behind.
 Les Beardslee's Sportsmen lost three miserable games to Geigere's cellar champs when Bill Wookey failed to appear, having gone to New York to buy a COW. They had to take average for Bill and it wasn't so good. Although defeated, the Sportsmen broke a league rec ord when not one single man reached the 800 mark. Geigere was also absent but his average of Ill for three games just about settled the battle. It was easily the -femon" match to date, and the re- suit pushes the Sports down into the deep cellar while the Business men come up into fifth place for a breath of air. Next week will probably see a decided change in the team standing as well as the individual rating. At present Nell son, Geigere, O'Meara and Drexler have over no averages.
