Gs SS COMRADE _ Edited by the Young A Page for Workers’ SACCO AND VANZETTI Sacco and Vanzetti, the two Italian fighters of the working class, who were convicted in 1920, were sentenced to die in the electrie chair during the week of July 10. Vanzetti said,.“My convic- tion is that I have suffered because I am a radical and an Italian. But if you were to execute me two times and-I were to be reborn I would again do as I have done already.” Comrade children of the working class. Every- body knows that our Comrades Sacco and Vanzetti are innocent of the crimes they are charged with. Everybody knows that the enemies of the workers want to get rid of Sacco and Vanzetti and so they have framed-up charges on these two innocent workers, as they did with Tom Mooney and others. They stop short of nothing to get rid of workers who are radical and fight for the working class. Our slogan must be “Sacco and Vanzetti Shall Not Die” and we must back up our slogan by get- ting all people, especially worke:s, to protest against this great wrong. y OUR LETTER BOX HE STOLE BECAUSE HE WAS HUNGRY. By ROSE NIOVIC—Akron Pioneer. The bell rang for recess. I went to get my luhch but did not find it. Someone got hold of it, It was in my pocket in the morning. I didn’t care much for it, but the kids asked me why I’m not eating so I told them why. The kids started hunting for the “thicf.” And a boy said that he saw Willar eating something in the basement hiding himself. 1 asked the kids to let Willar eat it. | “There are six children and they barely have @nough to eat.” But the teacher Miss C heard about the incident. he took the poor boy and he got a real hard thrash- g from her. Some of the kids just sat and didn’t say a word. But I have seen in the eyes of some others that they didn’t like the judgment. ' “He would not have stolen if he had enough to eat, but the teacher does not care whether we kids have eats or not,” said a girl to me while we were quietly walking home. : A LOT OF BUNK. Dear Comrades: Monday we went to mect Gov. Brewster. We had to go through the streets as if we were horses. It was awful weather and it was @nowing also. When the governor came he didn’t tell us anything good, he just told us he had a wife and two children who were great big husky boys. He told us to try and be good citizens of the United States, He also said that every boy or girl in this "hall has a chance to become a governor or president by being true to the country. MUCH WORK BUT NO PRESENTS By ELIZABETH PENTALLER. The day after vacation the teacher’asked the lit- tle folks in the class to tell what they got from Santa Claus. But most of the children in our school are poor and didn’t get any presents so we couldn't ‘say much. My little sister and I were in a big city and saw many nice toys which were made for little folks to play with. : _ We saw old Santa and told him we would like Some nice toys. But all he said was, “How much money have you got?” I told him I didn’t have any. But we worked to beat the band last summer on our farm during vacation. We didn’t even make enough for our living. My father told us how nice & time our little comrades in Soviet Russia have during vacation time. I wish we have a Soviet Amer- fea so we too can have a good time. HOW ABOUT YOU? Little Rosie Will join the Pioneers today. Red, they say T he CARRY ON THE STRUGGLE By Elizabeth Jakstya. Rich people dwell In wealth and state, While poor ones walk Through the factory gate. The rich ones sup On bright wine red, While workers’ children Cry for bread, If the rich are sick, Or have slight ills, They call their doctors Who give them pills. If the poor are sick, In bed they moan, * They either get well Or dic—alone. Tell me my friends Will ths always be? Are these the sights We'll always see? Or will we arise And against this fight, To see that past wrongs Are for workers made right. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? By FRANK GILLIS.

There was a great feast, chickens and calves and lambs were roasted, rich foods could be smelled all thru the house, the servants brought countless bottles from the wine-cellar. After supper the young guests danced in the large hall, the older men seated them- selves at a table and began to play cards, The rich man had no luck, he fost and lost again, until at last his purse was empty. “One more game,” he said to his friend who had won all the money, “We will gamble for my strongest and best slaye.” ° And he thought to himself, “I¢ [ lose Tom, that will not be a misfortune, for lately he is lazy and ob- stinate, anyhow.” His friend agreed. The whole life and fate of a human being depended upon a few cards, a bundle of paper.. The rich man drew a card, his friend did the same. They threw the cards on the table.
