that the Party was put to the front
in every meeting in the last few
weeks before the election.
The damn rats in office put lots
of men to work in the city with the
promise to vote for the damn rats
and in spite of the fact that they
voted for them, three days after the
election they were all laid off. They
had promised them 18 months work,
so I hope lots of these workers will
next time remember that they sold
their vote for few days work with
a pick. If you don't move them out
of office, you will die looking for
election jobs, so why don't we join
the Communist Party and fight for
a Workers and Farmers Govern
ment. Why can't Ye see that they
are making it worse every day? Are
we going to let this take place any
more? I should say not. I think
every one has had to learn and by
the time these rats get out of office
we will know more.
Remember that these men put
back in office are the ones who
called the strong arm of the state
to crush the miners when they were
on strike, and comrades, until we
unite, they will keep doing so.
We, the workers are the producers
and we must get our part Of every
thing.

IRONWOOD, Mich. - The steel
trust has for years run the works on
this range. It has even laid the
places for all the large public build
ings to cover up the best iron ore
deposits. These public buildings
make the surface value of this land
expensive. The smaller companies
are incapable of moving or rebuild
ing the million dollar schools and
are out Of the picture.
All Gogebic Range officials are

grumblings that all is not we'll with

Mines are stopped near the town
and those that are running are 21k

Trust roiaed to its hearts content,
wherever it pleased, and now prac-
tically the entire town is under

The mines that are running are

only 400 school children took part
in the Child Health Day Maypole
celebration). 1t tells how awful it
is that on May Day the streets are
filled with banners blaming the
capitalist system that has done so
much for the children Do you
know how the N. Y. Times talks
about the children? 1t calls them
"the children who look with joy
GUS and innocent eyes into the fu-
ture!" Is that a laugh or is that
laugh?
Then the editorial goes on to tell
what some of the states have done
for the children during the past
year. One state has had a dental
survey of school children. Another
has had doctors examine the chill
dren in 2-3 of the counties. Did we
need examinations to tell us most
children in this country are un-
healthy becauf they don't have
enough to eat?
Then after the examination, did
the government give free food and
medical and dental care to the
millions of undernouriShed chill
dren? You know the answer.
The Times" wants to know why
all the children saved under our
system" don't march. Well. May
LIST was workers holiday before
it was Child Health Day, and on
May LIST, workers children march.
And how many workers children
have been saved" by this system?
And should those children still
alive thank the government that
they haven't starved to death yet?
On May Day workers children
marched to protest all the condi-
tions that workers children face
undernourishment, firetrap homes
and schools, overcrowded classes,
fasciSm, and war.
Workers children cannot cele-
brate Child Health Day in capt.

every day will be Child Health Day.

At the last meeting of the Party
Section Committee of Hudson
County, N. j.. a discussion was held
on National Youth Day tremen-
dous demonstration against i'm
perialist war and for the defense
of the Soviet Union. The Young
Communist League is, as yet, very
weak here, lit was organized only
two months ago and has only four
units in the entire county, and the
Party decided to activize the entire
membership for National Youth
Day and render every possible as
sistance to the activities of the Y.
CL.
The importance of this work is
clearly indicated by the frantic ef-
forts made by the bourgeoisie to
win the workingclass youth to its
program of fascism and war. Many
fascist organizations are cropping
up, all of them making strong ap-
peals to the youth. In the Ford
plant at Edgewater, although ne
youth we're working there before
the last strike, which broke out
some six months ago, Immediately
after, young workers were hired
because they are more depend
able" There is no doubt that the
many maneuvers to be held on the
Hudson, during the month of May
will be utilized to create a nation
alistic and jingoistic feeling among
the American youth.
We are of the opinion, however,
that all these efforts of the ruling
class to win the tOiIing youth is
doomed to failure, provided that
the Party will really guide the
work of the Y.C.L. and help to
carry on proper activity among
the young workers in the shops
which alone will guarantee the
building of mass Y.C.L.
For these reasons the Party Sec
ton Committee decided the follow
ing:
Ito call a County National
Youth Conference of all adult or
CARNATIONS for May IL.
ITO issue special National
Youth Day editions of the three
Party shop papers in the Section

No, of course notl Therefore, it
would be hard for you to realize the
state under which our Austrian

conditions that are worse than
death, and the victims Of fascism
know this better than any other
class of people.

sufferings, the downtown section of

Alabama Mine Tries
To Trick Miners Into
Company Union
By Mine Worker Correspondent

BY Mine Worker Correspondent
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. In the
Tennessee Coal & Iron Co.'S, Wylan
Mine, a coal mine of 2,400 workers,
this happened just before the strike.
Nearly 60 days ago, the bosses, such
as the superintendent and other
officers, did all they could to force
the miners to sign a paper, we called
it yellow dog or company union
contract.
Last Thursday, when the miners
asked for their pay statements, they
we're again rigidly asked to go to
another window and sign anew, to
pay the doctors bill. The workers
see in this that it was another fake
way of the bosses to take advantage
Of the workers to get between them
and the United Mine Workers of
America. However, not many signed
anew for the doctors bill.

Letters from Our Readers

The resolution on class war
prisoners in addition to those
names enumerated in the above
mentioned article, that of Leon
Blum must be stated as well as
the fact that the resolution also
called for the release of all class
war prisoners in addition to
those names mentioned.
The last point. the facts as
regards the big financial pledge
made, are as follows: SYM
pathizer gave $40 in cash
and pledged $50. He then
pledged another $40 conditioned
upon 10 others pledging IS each
which resulted in IL people
pledging SIS each. This synpa-
thizer came to the District Of
flee the day following and gave
the 500 that he pledged to give.
making a total of 500 that he
gave. This should be an ex-
ample to other sympathizers who
are financially able to help the
Party.
On page 1 of the May 8 issue
in the column entitled, MAY
First City by City," you state
that there were about 100000 in
Madison Square. All capitalist
press estimates, as well as our
estimates, to say nothing of the
photographic proofs, show that
there were nowhere near 100000
in Madison Square on May 1.
All of the above facts are of
such Importance that corrections
of the article mentioned should
be made in the columns of the
