OUR PENNSYLVANIA REPORTER YES! WE’LL FIGHT THE BOSSES. Dear Comrades: Here is some news of what happened in the No. 1 mine of the Ocean Coal Com- pany in Herminie, Pa. One afternoon a father and his son of 16 years finished the work they were @oing and wanted to go home. But they saw that Young Comrade Section ‘ YOUNG COMRADE CORNER PIONEERS WILL CARRY ON, Comrade Ruthenberg’s death is a great blow to the American working class. The children of the American working class realize that Comrade Ruth- enberg was one of their best fighters. Comrade Ruthenberg’s life as a leader of the working class and of the American Workers (Com- munist) Party and his sacrifices and endless devo- tion to the working class will serve as an inspiration to the Young Pioneers of America (the children’s section of the Communist movement) to carry on the work of our dear comrade and leader, until we have realized that for which he was bravely fight- ing. We, the Young Pioneers of America, pledge our- selves to be ALWAYS READY to fight as children for the emancipation of our class. ~ YOUNG PIONEERS OF AMERICA. THE LITTLE GREY DOG From Fairy Tales for Workers’ Children. (Continued from Last Week.) He considered for a moment, then cried happily, “Now I know, Hannah is just the right one for you. How could I forget her? Of course, she has a little boy. . *; don’t want him,” the daughter interrupted. “My dear little son must not play with a dirty Negro child. You can keep Hannah’s son here.” “You are a good mother, my beloved child,” said the rich man, moved. “You always think of your son. Good, Benjamin shall remain here and when you go back to the city tomorrow, I will give you Hannah to take along. I will immediately tell the overseer, so that he may tell her to be ready.” And the rich man called a servant and bade him bring the overscer. Ah, what a sad night that was in the litle hut of the Negroes. Poor Hannah hugged her little son close in her arms and cried as though her heart would break. Her Kusband Tom gazed at her with worried eyes and was so miserable that he could not say a word. Hannah kept looking anxiously to- ward the little window, trembling with the fear of seeing the first ray of light that meant that day was near, when she would leave her loved ones. The little grey dog seemed to understand the grief of his friends, he nestled quite close to Hannah’s coat, looking up at them with loving, clever eyes. Then Hannah cried loudly, “If they sell you, too, Tom, what will become of our poor child?” The little dog laid his paw on little Benjamin as though to say, “Don’t fear, poor mother, I will take care of him.”” (To be continued.) THE CHINESE SITUATION | the gage elevator was loaded with coal so they Z Sar started to walk up the air shaft steps which are 350 feet high. All of a sudden when they were 150 Ee feet up, they were surrounded by deadly gas, and both were choked to death. Whose fault is it that these two workers died? It was the fault of the company bosses. The company cares more for its mules than for its workers because the mules cost money and the workers don’t. We must fight against 1 \ \\ - ' ‘bosses and companies that kill workers and we'll win just like the workers of Soviet Russia won their bosses. Long live the workers revolu- 1 { tion of the United States! Your Comrade, y BILLY TAPOLCSANJ. * oA ade WERE ENS Ws OY WE MOURN OUR LOSS IRVING SHAVELSON. On March 2, 1927, the working class of America lost one of its best friends, Comrade Ruthenberg, the fearless fighter,for the working class. Comrade Ruthenberg gave his+life like Lenin, Liebknecht, Gene Debs, while fighting for the working class. When the socialists misled and betrayed the work- ing class, Comrade Ruthenberg was one of the first to peint it out. He was one of the first to organize the Workers (Communist) Party, the only party that fights for the freedom of the working class in America. He was the National Secretary of the Party. Because Comrade Siatincbete was active in or- ganizing the workers to fight against the bosses for more wages and better conditions in the shops, mines and fields. the bosses arrested him and sent him to prison. When Comrade Ruthenberg came out of jail be continued the fight against the bosses. His aim was to establish a Workers’ and Farmers’ gov- ernment in the United States. Cemrade Ruthenberg’s last words were that all workers should help build a strong Workers Party in the United States. .Comrade Ruthenberg, we the children of the work- ing class miss you, and we promise to carry on the fight where you left it. You told us to build a strong Workers Party before you died. - Well, we will start to dv this by joining the Young Pionecrs and building a iit Pioneer League. OUR HERO MAX KARP. Let us pause to mourn, For with the coming of the dawn A COMMUNIST LEADER has died. Who fought for the workers, and the capitalists defied. ° His life did he lend His life did he spend For the workers’ cause Therefore. we mourn Comrade Ruthenberg’s loss. Till the last did he fight, For the workers and their right And before he did die FIGHT ON was his cry. 4, We will carry on his work in fields and factories On the ocean, the lands and on the seas , The aork that he has begun Will by all of us be done.

Coolidge don’t help the workers much Because he don’t believe in such. He helps the capitalists instead Yet they call him a workers’ friend, you bet. Pen Is Mightier Than Sword.
