Fear of the success of a mass meeting, called to spread the strike and bring out the rest of the wor ers.in the Loray Mill, led to this new display of brutality on the part of the company forces. It was the young militants who reorganized a night picket line after the arrests and marched down to the mill to carry on the struggle. Edith Sauan- ders and Sophie Melvin, children’s strike organizers, were arrested on this line and choked by the thugs until they were black in the face. They ere now being held together i ene cell in the Gastonia, jail. Many Young. A big proportion of the more than 160 arrested are young workers. A!- most all of the members of the Communist Youth League are now in jail. All the youth organizers ot the National Textile Workers Union are facing serious charges of mur- der or instigation to murder. Clar- ence Miller, with Joe Harrison, are =e having fired at the policemen. All stand in the greatest danger before the lynch spirit which is being whinped into a flame by the Cas- tonia “Gassy” Gazette. The youth have played a big role in the strike in Gastonia as in other strikes throughout the south. They have showed the greatest militancy. They have been the best organizers for the union and the best fighters | on the picket line. Now they are fighting in the front lines to defend their fellow-workers against this Intost attack, Now they are among the mos‘® active in answering the attack of the bosses by building the union and fighting to spread the strike, Young strikers have re- placed older strikers in the reorgan- ized gvard which will continue to defend the t-at colony against the bosses’ terror and which will try to prevent all efforts of company and city officials to smash this colony which the workers have built up. These young southern strikers are fighting day and night to defend their union, their families and their tent homes against the attacks of the company’s hired thugs and po- licemen.
