The Young Communist League has lost the initiative in the American youth movement for the first time in 6 years. College students, however, are not turning reactionary. At the conference of the International Student Service on the campus of the New Jersey College for Women some twenty youthful left-wingers, conscious of the importance of combating fascism at home and abroad, banded together to form the Student League for Progressive Action. This outcome of the confusion prevailing among young progressives since the signing of the Nazi-Soviet pact is a tribute to the emotional stability and intelligence of the group. The formation of the Student League for Progressive Action marks the opening of the "fourth period" in the development of an indigenous youth movement.
