4 Page Four CONTINUE DEBATE ON TRADE UNIONS AT 5TH CONGRESS Heckert Warns Against Amsterdam Left-Wing (Special to The DAILY WORKER) MOSCOW, July 7.— (By Mail).— Fritz Heckert of Germany, continued the report on the trade union’ ques- tion, begun by, Losovsky, before the Fifth Congress. Just before Heckert spoke, a dele- gation of the Tenth Rifle Corps of the Red Army, presented a red ban- ner for the workers of Hamburg, in honor of the October struggle in that city. Enthusiastic demonstrations of applause ensued. A representative of the Hamburg workers received the banner with a speech of solidarity with the Red Army and the Workers’ Government. After him Thalmann greeted the delegation in the name of the Presidium. A demonstration was given by the congress to Clara Zet- kin, in honor of her birthgay, and Manabendra Nath Roy congratulated her on behalf of the Presidium of a Congress. German. Unlonist Reports. Comrade Heckert then delivered his report: The general retreat of the work- ing class has not yet come to a halt. The capitalist offensive is still on, and the Reparations Committee re- port makes for a continuation of this offensive. It is doubtful whether the German workers can resist the re- duction in wages and ‘lengthening of hours, which will then have an in- ternational effect. ‘The German work- ing class may this become the “world’s strike breakers. A pacifist wave has ‘swept over a part of the working class, which makes it more difficult to combat the Reparations Plan. The speaker described in detail how the German trade unions col- lapsed during the money-inflation per- tod, and under the general unemploy- ment, and how the betrfyal by the trade union bureaucracy, the expul- sions and persecutions of the Com- Munists by the officials of the Gen-| eral Federation of Trade Unions, had caused secession tendencies to ap- pear. The withdrawal movement from the unions was strengthened by the lack of unity in our own camp and by the betrayal of the officials. The persecutions on the part of the employers ‘made the’ tasks of the Fac- tory Councils more difficult, inasmuch as the revolufionary delegates to these councils were immediately dis- charged by the employers. This, and the expulsion of the Communists, was responsible for the decrease of Com- Munist influence in the trade unions, and made increasingly hard the or- ganization of the unorganized. Describing in detail the recent struggles of the, German workers, Heckert stressed the necessity of joint action on the part of German, French and English miners. , The development of small craft or- ganizations has become increasingly | favored by the aristocracy of labor, | small groups of skilled craftsmen, and | must be strenuously opposed. Work- ers’ battles that are well led, as, for| example, those of Ludwigshaven, can strengthen the organizations in spite | of the recent defeat. The problem} consists of establishing strike strate- gy “on the basis of internationalex- perience. ~ The speaker pointed out the im- mense significance of the internation- | al workers’ aid movement. He also emphasized the necessity of keeping the militant workers in close touch with the agricultural workers and small peasants. He agreed with Los- ovsky as to the correctness of the tactics, established by the Second Congress, in the matter of the shop nuclei system, and hoped that the lost ‘positions would speedily be regained. In respect to the Amsterdam left wing at the Vienna Congress, the speaker .aarned against harboring any illusions. Experience has shown that when it comes to a show-down this left wing always acts with the big-wigs of the right wing. The re- volutionary words of the Antsterdam left-wing has misled the working class. The policy of the Red Inter- national cannot be built upon the va- cillations and hesitations of the Am- sterdam left. A Minority View. After Heckert’s report, the debate was continued by Schumaker, speak- ing as a minority of one of the Ger- man delegation. Declaridg that he spoke only for himself, and not for , the German party, the Speaker traced ; the development of trade union policy in the K. P. D,, and maintained that the party had endorsed the formation ‘ot new industrial unions before the ‘Frankfort convention. Even the | Frankfort resolution permitted this tactic. Inasmuch as.the achievement ‘ of leadership in the old unions is im- | possible, he said, and inasmuch as the trade unions sabotage the workers’ struggles and expel the Communists, it would be well at present to organ- fzo the expelled and the unorganized into the new unions, altho the party _ members may remain in the old un- fons until they are expelled. The speaker took issue witn Losovsky, Tomski, and Heckert on this issue, and maintained that even now new industrial unions must be formed. It is a mistake to continue to fight against this movement, he declared, and had the party supported the new unions they would have made great progress. OMRADES: Our repeated appeals to the leaders of your party to form a united front of the working class in the present campaign have all been rejected. Instead they have be- come a part of the united front against the working class under the leadership of LaFollette, the politi- cal agent of small business. There- fore, we-now appeal directly to you over the heads of your leaders, who have betrayed the interests of the class struggle. To your leaders, we have already appealed, time and again nationally and locally, to join hands with the militant sections of the American working class, in or- der to promote the development of the struggle. Just a few instances. In March, 1928, the Workers Party, addresesd an open letter to the Socialist Party, in- viting it to form a united front with the Workers Party upon any one or all of a long list of immediate de- mands of the workers. The Socialist Party made no reply. In the fall of 1923, a committee of Foster, Wangerin and Howat called upon Eugene V. Debs, at Terre Haute for the purpose of arriving at some understanding for common action. Nothing, however, was done by Debs or the Socialist Party to meet this advance. - In May, 1924, prior to the St. Paul convention the Workers Party ad- dressed the National Committee of the Socialist Party to clarify its posi- tion on the’ convention and the idea of a united front of workers and poor farmers in the coming election. But all our appeals to your reform- ist leadership have been in vain. Thru compromise after compromise, and concession after concession, during the last six years, your leadership had finally come to the point of surrender- ing and betraying the tast and most fundamental principle of the class struggle—the. principle of indepen- dent working class political action. This they did in Cleveland on July 5th, when they accepted the dicta- tions and leadership of LaFollette in the coming presidential elections. LaFollette-ism versus«Socialism. What does LaFollette stand for? LaFollette is not a private individual. He is a militant representative of cer- tain social groups and classes. He i8 fighting in the interests of the manu- facturing merchants, small bankers, rich farmers, and well-to-do profes- sionals. LaFolletteism is the poli- tical movement of the lower and mid- die strata of the American bour- geoisie. LaFollette’s fight against the Wall Street candidates should not deceive you as to the true meaning of La Folletteism. This movement is noth- ing more than a fight of the petty and middle class bourgeoisie for a larger share of the profits of Ameri- can capitalism, derived from the ex- ploitation of the working masses. If LaFollette is successful in wrest- ing concessions from Big Capital for the petty bourgeoisie, it will be at the expense of the working class. In }Other words, this movement of La Follette is a movement opposed and hostile to the interests of the work- ing class. This becomes particularly convinc- ing when you examine LaFollette’s Labor Parties that are already in ex- istence, notably in Montana, Minne- sota, and in the Dakotas» There, as everywhere else, LaFollette is organ- izing his own committees, Dutting up Kluxers Clamored Cowardly to: Lynch Two Negro Suspects MOUNDSVILLE, Ill., July 27.—The excited Ku Kluxers who stormed > pre the jail last night demanding the Negroes suspected of killing young Daisy Wilson when holding up her father’s store at Villa Ridge were quieted By the national guard troops which were sent over from Cairo. The would-be lynchers were not at all in evidence as much today; so the troops were sent back. Sheriff I. J. Hudson secretly took he Negroes to the penitentiary at Chester to save them from the hys- terical night-shirts. Altho Daisy Wil- son's father fafled to positively identi- fy the Negroes held, he later told the Ku Kluxers that he was sure they were the men, H. F. Morelnnd, K. K.

In our conception this stands for the revolutionary class struggle, for the seizure of power by the working class and for the establishment of the pro- letarian dictatorship. This is not the conception of your party. But there is one principle in it to which even your leadership had been paying homage on dccasion. This is the principle of the class struggle, which means first of all political in- dependence of the working class. Between this principle of Social- ism, on the one hand, and LaFollette- ism on the other hand, there can be no peace, no understanding, and no compromise, except on one condition and one condition only. That the petty bourgeoisie led by LaFollette must sever connections with and de- clare war against Big Capital, and in this war accept the leadership of the working class, Only if this condition is satisfied can an alliance between\ the workers and the petty bourgeoisie bé of any use to the working class. This con- dition your leadership sacrificed, thereby betraying the very life inter- ests of the working massés of Amer- ica. By refusing to stand by the class struggle and the political in- dependence of the workers your lead- ers have permitted and assisted the LaFollette petty bourgeois movement to swallow the politically awakening sections of the American workers, and to exploit their’power in ‘the in- terests of the petty bourgeoisie, the labor bureaucracy, and a small group of labor aristocrats. The interests of the working class as a whole; which it is the sacred duty of Socialism al- ways to stand by, have been sacri- ficed and betrayed. The “Promise” of a Labor Party. The ffstification for this black be- trayal is to be found, according to your leaders, ip the future Labor Par- ty that is supposed to result out of the Cleveland surrender to LaFol- letteism. This is sheer nonsense. :If LaFollette is successful, even to the extent of rolling up a big vote for himself, and electing a number of so- called progressive Congressmen, the only party that will result will be a LaFollette party, a new capitalist party representing the interests of the rich middle class and exploiting for itself the political power of la- bor. ; And if LaFollette is not success- ful, even to the extent described above, nothing will result of the Cleveland surrender, except disap- pointment and demoralization in the ranks of labor and the breakup even ofethe. C. P. P. A. In neither case the workers will have paid in sweat and blood for the Cleveland betrayal. The Workers Party and LaFollette. The Workers (Communist): Party refuses to surrender to LaFollette- ism and betray the class struggle. The Workers Party nominated its own candidates and will cAnduct its own campaign for working class poli- tical independence and for a work- ers’ and farmers’ government, As you are well aware, the Work- ers Party nas been engaged for the past two and a half years in pro- moting the idea of a Labor Party. NEW YORK CITY Party Activities THE DAILY WORKE We are still of the opinion that the best and most effective expression of a working class United Front in America would be a Labor Party, based upon the trade unions and in- cluding all political and fraternal or- ganizations of the workers and ex- ploited farmers. We have done all in our power that this idea shall find its realization in the presidential elections of 1924, thus solidifying the ranks of labor against the bourgeoisie and prevent- ing LaFolletteism from totally de- stroying the beginnings of the Farm- er-Labor movement in the United States. At the June 17 convention we at- tempted to lay the Sround for such a united front. In order to maintain connections with the awakening masses for the purpose of advancing the class struggle thru a Labor Party, we were ready to consider even La Follette’s name as candidate for president, but only on one condition —a' condition that would satisfy us that LaFollette had really broken with the old capitalist parties and was willing to accept the control and leadership ‘of the organized workers of America. This condition was stat- ed at the St. Paul convention by Comrade William Z. Foster in the following words: “Relative to the candidacy of Mr. LaFollette, | feel It incumbent up- on me to state the position of the Workers Party on this matter. In the coming negotiations between the National Committee of the Na- tional Farmer-Labor Party and oth- er groups relative-to combined ac- tion upon a presidential candidate, the only is upon which the Workers Party will accept LaFol- lette as a candidate Is, If he agrees to run as the Farmer-Labor candi- date, to accept that party’s plat- form and its contro! over his elec- toral campaign and éampaign funds.” The betrayal at Cleveland dealt this movement a death blow, leay- ing the Workers Party the only work- ing class party in the field to stand by the class struggle, to fight the menace of LaFolletteism, and to car- ry the struggle further for a_Labor Party in America. The betrayal at Cleveland leaves the membership of the Socialist Party but one alternative! It is either. LaFollette or the Workers Party. Either you approve of the petty bourgeoisie swallowing up and subjecting to itself politically the la- bor movement, or else you support the fight of the Workers Party for the principles of the class struggie and for a Labor Party: . We appeal to you in the name of the class struggle, in the name of the tens of years of hard labor and sacrifice in the movement for inde- pendent working class political ac- tion, in which many of you have par- ticipated. We appeal to you in the name of the future of the American working class. Ree Repudiate the leadership! Assert and give expression to your loyalty to the cause of the wWork- ing class! Help us to maintain the integrity and promote the interests of the prot letarian class struggle in the United States! : WORKERS PARTY OF AMERICA, William Z. Foster, Chairman, C. E.

Two hundred and fitty of these scrubwomen—white and col- ored—met at the offices of Henry Lincoln Johnson and John T.

The women say they are now to be paid for only three hours time, though their tasks require on the average 4% hours. GZECHO-SLOVAK PAPER BECOMES PRIVATE ORGAN “Spravedinost” Deserts Communist Movement Statement of the C. E. C., Workers’ Party. The Board of Directors of “Sprave- dinost,” the former official daily news- paper of the Czecho-Slovakian Fed- eration of the Workers Party, have given the final proof of their treach- ery to the principles of Communism by withdrawing from the Workers Party and announcing their intention to continue the publication of “Spra- vedinost” and “Zajmy Lidu,” as independent organs; that is, indepen- dent of the Communist movement of America. Furthermore, they are at- tempting to revive the “Czecho-Slo- vak Marxian Federation,” thus seek- ing to split the ranks of the Czecho- Slovak section of the Workers Party. This action of the Board. of Direc- tors came at the very time when the Central Executive Committee of the party was endeavoring to come to an agreement with them and was offer- ing a number of proposals of a com- promise nature in order to maintain the unity of the Czecho-Slovakian sec- tion and“to assure the continued pub- lication of “Spravedinost” until the controversy could be settled. This action should be the final and conclusive proof to all Czecho-Slo- vakian ~ revolutionary workers that this Board of Directors, while cloak- ing their actions with hypocritical pretenses, have been causing \the dis- ruption in the.Czecho-Slovak section of the party, breaking the party dis- cipline repeatedly and resisting the party control for the reason that they are in opposition to the principles of the party, especially to the basic prin- ciple of party control of se préss laid down by the Communist Inter- national. The attitude of the Bureau of the Czechd-Slovak) section in opposing this Board of Directors has been cor- rect. The fight of the bureau against them was a fight for Communism and for the Communist Party. i This Board of Directors has com- mitted a long series of actions against the party, culminating in their with- drawal. The Central Executive Com- mittee therefore declares that they shall in the future be regarded as expelled from the party, and calls up- on all loyal Communists to discon- tinue any collaboration with them and to withdraw all support from their private organs, the “Spravedlnost” and/Zajmy Lidu.” At the very beginning of the con- troversy, which was started by the arbitrary removal of one of the edi- tors by the Board of Directors, in di- rect violation of the constitution of our party, which places this power &n- ly in the hands of the elected bureau subject to the approval of the Central Executive Committee, the Central Executive Committee of the party in- tervened in an effort to#prevent the struggle going to the point of endan- gering the unity of the Czecho-Slo- vakian section and the continued pub- lication of the paper. Representatives of the C. E. C. attended a number of conferences on the question and in each case received the full support and co-operation of thebureau. The Board of Directors, however, resisted all efforts to adjust the difficulty and refused to accept any decision of the party. me On July 15, the entire Central Exe- cutive Committee held a joint meet- ing with. five representativés of the Board of Directors and endeavored to come to an agreement with them, but without success. Repeated ap- peals to them to put the unity of the ‘|Federation and the security of the paper above their own personal feel- ings and interests, and to propose some ways and means of co-operation with the comrades belonging to the bureau, were of no avail. The: Board of Directors categorically refused to allow the leading committee of the party to have anything to say about the affairs of “Spravedinost.” Such an attitude is absolutely un- permissable in a Communist Party, and warranted their immediate expul- sion. Nevertheless, the Central Exe cutive Committee decided to exhaust, the last possible resource in order to come to an “understanding. It drew up and submitted to the Board of Di- rectors for their consideration two al- ternate proposals, as follows: 1. That until thé controversy is set- tted, a Board of Management consist- ing of two members of the present Central Executive Committee of the party conduct the affairs of the pa- per; or, 2. That the Central Executive Com- mittee appoint a commfttee of three to conduct the paper under the con- trol of the management. “But even this extraordinary effort to establigh a working agreement was flatly rejected. The Board of Man- agement would not entertain any pro- position for the representatives of the party to “interfere” in the man- agement of the Spravedinost.’ In the discussion which took placg at the joint meeting of the C. H. C. with the Board of Directors, their whole point of view was clearly brought out.
