the quickest and cheapest way OF
getting news to the public was
brought out incidentally at the 4th
annual conference of the National
Advisory Council on Radio in Edu-
cation in Chicago, Oct. 9.
Il wish I had time to tell you how
the newspaper publishers forced the
radio to stop broadcasting news,
said Editor Bruce Bliven of The
New Republic, or at least. not tc
broadcast news while it is fresh OF
in any adequate fashion - which
they did by threatening to cease
publication Of radio programs.
But Bliven had no high opinion
Of radio programs. He called them
q "ceaseless flow of oral garbage
uncomfortable drivel, the equivalent
Of letting off stencil bomb in the
family living room"
Many broadcast managers are
former power trust employees, he
said, who necessarily censor theil
programs to favor this point of view
and conservatism in general" The
typical program director, he added
is "cross between a vaudeville pro-
Queer and the advertising manager

The American Vigilant JntelH-

used to spy on radical and labor
groups. The information collected
by Jung was sold to employers for
a good sum whenever there was
strike or threat of a strike. When
that didn't work Jung used to put
on "Americanization" campaigns
and collect money that way. Only
since Hitler got into power has
Jung picked on the Jew.
The Federation itself is run with

DERHAPS more than ever before,
workers the world over are COM
ing 10 realize the meaning and the
need for a united front against the
long united bourgeoisie. In France,
in Austria, in Spain, in Italy. the
united front is a reality; elsewhere
the Communists are fighting for it
! constantly.
In the current issue Of the Inter-
/ national Of Youth, the struggle for
the united front amongst the youth
the remarkable achievements and
| the equally serious wesknessss-are
thoroughly analysed, and correct
tactics for future work presented.
In England, the English Guild Of
Youth not only entered into
united front, over the opposition Of
the Independent Labor Party, but
conditionally affiliated with the
Young Communist International.
In America, at the recent American
| Youth Congress, a united front was
made not only with the Y. P. S. L.
but with normally conservative or
CARNATIONS like the Y. M. c. A. as
well
These are great victories toward
the growing unity Of the working
class. They indicate the growing
rehabilitation Of the masses-young
and old. They mean that workers
are coming together in always
greater numbers to fight for their
common interests-the interests Of
the working class. They mean, 100
that our efforts to conclude and
continue united fronts must be in
tensified; and to do this we must
work correctly. We must eliminate
weaknesses and mistakes; above all
the weakness Of sectarianism.
HIL GREEN, in his brilliant article
u on the Youth Congress, puts the
problem and the answer in one:
The Importance Of working in a
broad non-sectarian manner has
not been understood by many of
our comrades. They often forget
that our aim in the united front is
to draw into action the widest
masses Of youth and precisely
those sections of youth as yet not
under our leadership"
The same emphasis on the need
for wiping out sectarianism is made
in John Marks's discussion of the
San Francisco strike, and in Bill
Kashtan's report on the Canadian
Y G. L. 1t is clear from this. that
not until these dangerous shortcom-
ings are entirely done away with,
can the Y. G. L. really carry on eff
fectively its important task Of as
suming leadership of all the youth.
The importance of this issue Of
the International of Youth must be
clear to everyone. Not only is it
guide to the correct carrying
through Of the united front where
already established, but it treats Of
instances where the united front is
impossible-as with the Trotzkyists
and other renegades.
In addition, there is an article
on the Y. c. L. in Soviet China,
and several on the concrete results
of Y c. L. work in fighting Negro
discrimination and in recruiting
new members. This issue ought to
be made the basis for unit discus
sions everywhere: it should receive
the widest circulation possible in
order that our position on the
united front may be made clear to
everyone-G. D.
