Anna, wife of the worker, Kurt Zimmerman, an active member of the Communist Party, discovered that the owner of an ice-cream store on their street is a police spy.

The whistle called them back again. A few curt orders and they jumped into the waiting lorries and drove away. Possibly the situation was even more dangerous’ elsewhere. A few minutes later a young worker had jumped on a sand box in the center of the Nettlebeckplatz and spoke: to the masses who filled the square. Kurt was looking for Paul. he had found him. “We must return to the alley at once. Paul—we must see what is happening there.” They knew that the police attacks would be concen- trated. there.

Young Pioneers--10th Year: May First marks ten years of the Young Pioneers of America, For the past decade the Pioneer organization in the United States has been railying the workers’ children, training them as future fighters, for the militant workers’ movement against class exploitation and misery. The Pioneer movement in the United States emerged from the So- cialisé Sunday Schools. There, the children were taught in an abstract and academic way about Socialism, They were not involved in the strug- gles of the workers, A break was made from this Sunday School atinesphere when the Famine Scouté were organized in 1921. The ere based of the collection of relief for the children of the Soviet Unis! In 1923, the Young Pioneers was formed, as a Junior Sevtion of the Young Workers’ League. The work of the Young Pioncers was similar to that of a children’s Communist Par' This “vest pocket edition” believed that only the most ioneers, that they were the van: This sectari & mMoyement to become a mere fraction. with walls so high that outst children could not penetrate. Not only was this true of Amerita. but of the whole tional chil- dren's ent in eapitalist counuties. The League « This Tn May ism was taken, git movenient, cnal of the Communist Party and the Young Communist y pointed this out, and demanded ah immediate change, up in bo: h tk of this ng of a mass chil- sectarian= ing a powerful.arm toward the build This was the establishment of the New Pioneer maga- isverice, the magazine has gained due to its feature character, simplicity and © New Pioneer can and should be put into appeal to chil the hands of every child. Up to the present time, entirely in the hands of the children and a few members of the Young the task of orga: ing the children was left Communist League. But the task of organising the children is NOT the sole task’ of the children, It is the task of every mass organization. All militant workers’ organizations, fraternal and benefit, must or- ganize their children alongside of their branch. This will be another step to help bridge the gap of the Pioneer organization of today with the or- ganization, of a mass children's movement. The bourgeoisie are vainly trying to hold onto their system. They see themselves disintegrating. They realize that they mst strengthen their hold over the workers’ children. The Scout organisations are being given additional aid. Their membership is increasing. The adult working olacs must realize, too, that the line-up of forces is becoming ever sharper. We, too, must strengthen our hold upon the working-class children. The children must not be left unorganized. They are entering the factories in increasing numbers as child laborers (2,000.- 000). They are taking to the roads and rails, because they have no homes, in hundreds of thousands. Hundreds are fainting in the schools. The schools themselves are being shut down.
