Monday, December 22, 1924 Sconce AT PRESENT THAT'S ABOUT ALL WE CAN SAY! be It is the Hungarian Section of the Workers Party speak- wy ing. The lettereto us ends in the words of the caption above. « But the Hungarian Section had said its all. We learned that » it intended to do everything possible to carry its part of the * responsibility to make the DAILY WORKER safe for the *“ coming months. Every line in the letter expresses a deed, "an act. It is a letter, the contents of which might well be _ acted upon by all sections of the party. all districts, locals, and branches. Read it! $ To the DAILY WORKER: We do not think the Daily can be insured by words. It could and it should be insured by deeds. This is what we have DONE to insure the Daily: 1. At our recent convention we instructed our vc branches.to raise their quota of the $50,000 fund. : 2. . After the convention we took the quota of the Hun- *'garian Seetion and on its basis we figured out for each and “every branch its respective quota and called upon the branches to fill it. Every quota is a pledge from the branches, backed bythe Section. 3. To start the work, we wrote a check for $100 to the order.of the DAILY WORKER. This check is enclosed now, And this is what we are GOING TO DO: 1. We are going to see to it that the pledges be filled as quickly’ as possible. 2. We are going to make as many comrades as possible hustle to get subs for the DAILY WORKER. 3. In. case that what we have done and what we mapped out to do to insure the DAILY WORKER is not: enough to-insure it, we are going to do more. At present that’s about all we can say in support of the campaign. Fraternally yours, D. HAJNAL, Secretary, Hungarian Section, Workers Party. PARTY MEMBERS! ATTENTION!

Extensive preparations were made for the Chicago aldermanic eltctions to be held Feb. 28. These elections are so-called “non-partisan” and Com- munist candidates will be entered in all wards possible. A general cam- paign committee composed of the fol- lowing elected: Abern, Kruse, Gomez, Herzon, Hammersmark, Ida Dailes, Thurber Lewis, Candella, N. Juel Christensen, H. Epstein, Mrs. Kalou- sek, Manes, N. Shafir, Cejak, A. Maki, Robert Minor and two members of the Y. W. L. Sub-committee on organ- ization which is to organize ward committees, propose candidgtes, or- ganize meetings and general propa- ganda activities composed of Abern. Kruse, Lewis, Manus, Epstein and Mrs. Kalousek. A sub-committee on petitions which is to organize the work of gathering signatures and fil- ing petitions composed of the follow: ing: Hammersmark, Christensen Candella, Cjeka and Abern, and finally a committee on publicity composed of Comrades Gomez, Dailes and Shafir. Signatures required to petitions to en- ter candidates are two per cent of the votes cast in the last municipal elec tion and petitions must be filed before Jan. 30. Many wards offer good posi bilities for entering Communist candi- dates. Only the working class wards will be concentrated upon and all op- portunities ‘will’ be made use of to bring our message to the workers during this campaign. The Commun- ist candidates will in definite terms state their position on the many vita! working class issues. On the now developing unemploy- ment situation the city central com- mittee adopted the following state- ment: Unemployment in Chicago is on the increase. At the free employ- ment office during November there were 156 persons registered for each 100 jobs available. These figures mark an increase over the two pre- ceding months, altho they do not reath the high mark of July and Au- gust. Our party must take the leader- ship in gaining the measures for re- lief of the unemployed workers and create the organizations necessary to attain this aim. Our party mem- bers must take up energetically the formulation of the demands of the unemployed and initiate the fight for the realization of these demands. They must bring the issue into all trade unions and workers’ gather- ings. Apply our slogans to the con- crete situation and with these slo- gans penetrate the masses, organiz- ed and unorganized, employed and unemployed, to prepare them for ac- tion, following closely the program adopted by the C. E. C. Our immediate slogans must be: “Work or Compensation for the Un- employed.” “Governmental legisla- tion making appropriations for re- lief of the unemployed, funds to be administered by the labor organiza- tions.” “Employers to pay regular wages to workers whom they cannot keep steadily at work, out of their accumulated profits.” The city central committee electee ‘/@ committee composed of Swabeck Bell, Davidson, Milklavich and two to campaigns our party will engage in. ARRANGEMENTS MADE FOR MEW YEAR'S EVE BALL OF T. U. EL. The New Year’s Eve ball of the Trade Union Educational! League Is now an institution in Chicago. The affair will be held this year at the West End Women's Club, at 7 South Ash- land Blvd, The revival of militancy in the trade union movement shows that the members of the T. U. E. L. are using their heads in meeting the at- tacks of the reactionaries. On New Year's Eve they will give their feet a little exercise, The admission charge Is only 50 cents, from the Y. W. L., Greenberg. Applications: A total of 26 applica- tions were accepted including a Ozecho-Slovak branch of ten members organized in Brookfield, Ill. The minutes of the last district exe- cutive meeting showed that during the four months period July-October more new members had been initiated into our party in this district than any| previous similar period.

Italian West Side Branch Unanimous For Minority Thesis The minority thesis was unanimous- ly indorsed by the Italian Side branch, No. 1, by a vote of 41 to 0. The fol- lowing resolution was unanimously passed: “Having heard Robert Minor speak in support of the minority thesis and Tom Bell in support of the Foster- | Cannon thesis, the West Side branch of the Italian Section of the Workers Party indorses the minority thesis. We declare in favor of the continua- tion of the class farmer-labor party united front slogan as an effective means of building a mass Communist Party in the United States. “After two meeting nights of thoro discussion, we declare that there is a mass need for independent political action of the working class and we condemn the sectarian defeatist at-) titude displayed in the majority} thesis.—Signed: G. Baiocco, Secre- tary.” The brangh voted that every. mem- ber must take out an insurance policy to insure the DAILY WORKER for 1925. This motion was also unanimous- ly carried.

The minority tactic of con- t.contant with the farmer-labor tions of the American working class is mighty good common sense. As Communists we cannot pursue a policy of “splendid isolation” and hope to engage in every struggle to ad- vance the cause of the working class. It is the duty of every Communist to discuss the minority and majority Propositions and to view all angles with an open mind. I firmly believe that our C. EB. C. will arrive at their conclusions in due time and map out @ policy to guide us in the future | Until such @ decision has been reached we of the rank and file should keep plugging and pet thru the im- mediate tasks The injection of seamesitstie into the argument will get us nowhere, All engaged in this debate have rendered Mutt’ Ay Chae ee Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Children Children Mrs. Children » Children Children Mrs. A.
