I think I will WASHINGTON—NOT OUR HERO February 22nd is Washington’s birthday which is a national holiday and is celebrated throughout the United States. Unlike Abraham Lincoln who was the hero of only the northern bosses, George Washington was the hero of both the northern and southern bosses. It was Washington who led the fight against the BritisR government for the inde- pendence of the American bosses. But George Wash- ington is not OUR HERO, because he never cared for the workers and did not even try to help them. After the war, the workérs and poor farmers who fought in the revolution found that they were hope- lessly in debt. George Washington and the bosses’ government that he stood for, did not even try to help them. So these workers, revolted against the government. (Shay’s Rebellion). Washington sent soldiers against these workers and crushed their revolution, That’s why OUR HERO is not George Washing- ton, but the workers and poor farmers who feught and died in the Revolutionary War against the Brit- ish, and also those who fought and died in fighting the American bosses’ government. In the Revolutionary War we said that we wanted to be independent from the foreign government. of Great Britain. Today is altogether different. The American bosses’ government sends battleships and marines to China and Nicaragua to crush the work- ers who are fighting for freedom just as we once did. We say if the revolution was good for Uncle Sam, then it is good for the Chinese and Nicara- guans, so HANDS OFF CHINA AND NICARAGUA! Who Are We? By DENA ROTH. We are the Pioncers We always will be, Trying for the workers, As you can see. Tho we are ruled by the bosses, We'll rule ourselves some day, ‘man till he collapsed with pain. mm wW THE LITTLE GREY DOG From Fairy Tales for Workers’ Children. HE was an ugly grey dog with long silken-soft ears and a bushy tail. He was born in a splendid stable that belonged to a rich man. This rich man lived on a large estate in which were fields and meadows. And in these fields grew sugar-cane, in great quantities, great, round, smooth canes that contained the sweet sugar. On the sugar plantations worked hundred of Negroes, men and women, and the Negroes belonged to the rich man who had bought them in the market as he would buy cattle, for this story happened long ago, in those days when slavery existed in America. The rich man could do anything he wished with his slaves. If he was in a bad mood he would permit them to be whipped; if they dared to protest against this cruel treat- ment they were more cruelly punished—they were stripped naked, smeared with honey, and tied to a tree. The smell of the honey attracted the bees that came in large swarms, settled on the body of the slave, sucked the honey and stung the bound- Also, the master could sell his slave, did this frequently, without the least consideration, tearing mother from child, separating man and wife, sister and brother. The poor Negroes were completely helpless, they had to work all day long in the hot sun, received very « poor food, lived in wretched huts, separated from the house of the rich man by a mighty river. Here , lived the Negroes, crowded together; the children played about in front of these huts; played happily, because they did not yet know that they were slaves and that a hard, difficult life awaited them.
