Summary/Abstract: The period 1937—1941 represents a period of growth of the youth movement both in Yugoslavia as a whole and in Bosia and Herzegovina in particular. This growth is directly linked with the endeavours of SKOJ and CPY to carry out the new party line concerning the work with the young which aimed at building a vast youth organization including the university students, grammar and technical school pupils, working class youth and the peasant youth. In order to make it possible, the Communist Party and SKOJ, which acted illegally begin, to make use of the legal organizations and associations as well as all the other forms of legal activity with the aim of closer touch with the young. This was in the existing circumstances the only possible way for the CPY and SKOJ to realize their influence on the young and to take part not only in the struggle for realization of purely youth demands and solution of purely youth problems, but also in the universal struggle of the progressive forces in the country.
