Following is an article written by a youth named Haya de La Torre, now in exile from his country, who is becoming known as a leader of the liberal and labor forces of South America. Torre is a young radical whose influence has spread far beyond his own country, Peru. Torre became president of the Students' Federation of Peru and after graduating from college devoted himself to the organization of workers' universities in five centers. Torre held a position as teacher in a boys' school at Lima, Peru run by the Scotch Presbyterian Mission and continued his own studies for his doctor's degree.
