Mahoney stepped on the stage as a radical. His act went fairly well for a while. The Workers Party was leading a national drive for a farmer-labor ‘par- ty. When Mahoney began to get pounded by the reactionaries he join- ed the anvil chorus against the Com- munists and became the yellowest red-baiter of them all. But this did not save him as will be shown in this story. The Workers Party was the back- bone of the farmerlabor party in Minnesota. The takers decided to drive the Communists out of the F. L. P. They used Mahoney to good ad- vantage in this campaign. There was nothing too dirty for “Ol’ Bill” to do. , He expected a handsome reward, and he got it—in the neck. Mahoney Lost His Head ‘The upshot of all the manouvers to wid the farmer-labor party of Minne- of the Communists was a fake conference held in St. Paul on 20. Mahoney was officially the and front of it. What happened at this “unity conference” makes sad reading for Mahoney and other rene- gades who expect the reactionaries ERE Mahoney was chairman of the farmer - labor Harmon was secretary. The tornado that hit the Ohio Valley causing death and destruction was hardly less fatal than the political whirlwind that en- veloped Mahoney and his henchman Harmon. When the wirlwind passed Mahoney's political entity was mis- wing. The “wise” old politician, walked blindly into the trap prepared for him by the non-partisan league gang and the O'Connor democratic machine. ‘While Mahoney was using up all his gray matter attacking the _Yeds, Parson and Townley were de- Yoting a little corner of their brains to the task of tying the can to.

Mahoney begged to be allowed his office until his term ex- sota to be as much of a trader as Tom Van Lear,. Mahoney backed a man named Engstrom for chairman but was compelled to withdraw him. The old constitution was readopted with the addition of a new clause which refuses membership to anyone who is in favor-of the overthrow of capitalism or opposed to “represent- ative” government, Before the fake unity convention was held, thousands of copies of leaf- let issued by Distriet 9, of the Work- ers (Communist), Party were distri- buted among the: workers and poor farmers of Minnesota. The leaflet reads: i The farmer-labor party was brought into existence by the untiring efforts and perseverance of the rank and file workers and farmers thruout the state. During the war period when active workers were being thrown into jail, when others were being tarred and feathered, the movement was not troubled by job-hunting political shysters.

A. C. Townley first tried to destroy the party by turning it into a “balance of power” organization functioning within the old capitalist parties. He was closely followed by F. A. Pike, who tried to eliminate the trade unions and the farmers’ organizations from any voice in the party. He tried to make the farmer-labor party respectable, by destroying it as a working class movement. In this he was ably assisted by Thomas Van Lear, who by the way, still has con- siderable explaining to do on matters pertaining to his handling’ of the Min- neapolis Daily Star. A.

It is given in full as follows: A statement by six delegates charg- ed with being members of the Work- ers (Communist) Party of America. To the officers and delegates of The Seattle Central Labor Council: You have before you tonight for your consideration and decision a re- port of your strike and grievance committee in the matter of the ex- Dulsion of six “delegates from this council on acvount of political opin- ion. In the first place, the under- signed, individually and collectively, most emphatically protest. against this discrimination; and we ask “Why are the political opinions of only six members investigated? Why does not the council propose to try republi- cans and democrats for their political opinions, and expel them from the council if found guilty?” Further, we refer you to the fact that in the. past, rulings have been made by the president of this coun- cil (President Mundy), that the local unions~(and the local unions alone) who elect the delegates to this coun- cil are entitled to pass upon the qualifications of the delegates and the constitution of the American Federa- tion of Labor specifically declares that the credentials submitted to any Central Labor Union by any affiliated local union shall be accepted. “Why then,” we ask, “do members of this council propose to. expel us on ac- count of our political ideas?” Affirm Belief in Communism. We hereby affirm our belief in the principles of Communism as set forth by all leaders of the Communist movement since Marx wrote his Com- munist Manifesto in 1847. We deny that the members of this council have the right to call our political opinions in question. The A. F. of L. convention of 1890, settled this ques- tion once and for all, by declaring that. no discrimination « should be made against any member of this or- ganization because of religious or po- litical beliefs. This guarantee is also incorporated in the obligation taken by the candidates on joining many of the internatidnal unions affiliated with this council. If it can be shown that any dele- gates are guilty of disrupting the la- bor movement, then we agree that such delegates should be summarily dealt with, but insofar as no proof of any disruptive actions on our part have been submitted by your commit- tee, we demand that the charges made against us be dismissed forth- The charge has been made that the principles of Communism are inimical to, and disruptive of, the labor move- ment. We categorically deny this charge and the implications contain- ed therein, and we affirm on the con- trary that Communism, properly un- derstood, offers the one hope of free- dom and emancipation for the op- pressed and exploited workers every- ‘where. Many international unions, such as bakers and machinists, in their con- stitutions have affirmed one‘ of the basic principles of Communism, namely that the workers as a class must organize to fight the bosses, who are already consciously organized in- ternationally on class lines. We Com- munists go one step further than this, and we declare that the work- ers must organize politically on class lines, for the purpose of destroying government by graft and corruption —witness the notorious Teapot Dome scandal—and for the purpose of wresting political power from our back of this convention is not “unity”) political groups, but “respectability”—capitalist | Seattle Labor Prot enemies, the bosses, and substituting, instead of government by big busi- ness and the banks, government by the industrial workers and working farmers. Against Capltalist Parties. Some members of this council be- lieve that instead of building inde- pendent political organizations of the working. class, we should co-operate with the political organizations of our enemies, the republican and demo- cratic parties, (the parties of big business, of thé open shoppers and the union busters). As Communists, we declare such tactics to be detri- mental to the interests of labor, and affirm that in every case in history where thig plan has been followed, it has led ultimately to disaster for the workers, In this connection we might refer you to a recent:attempt of this na- ture, namely, the endorsement of Ed- ward Clifford, for governor of the state of Washington by many labor organizations, which resulted after his defeat in the primaries, in thou> sands of workers who had voted in the primaries for Clifford, following the lead of said, Clifford and voting for Hartley, the arch-enemy of labor, in the general election; and we point you to subsequent actions of Mr. Hartley (as for instance his stand on the child labor amendment) as proof of the correctness of the Com- munist position that the workers have nothing to gain, but every to lose by co-operation of this character with the capitalists, and future events in Mr. Hartley’s administration we are sure will further vindicate the Com- munists in this contention. {ft is because of numberless in- stances of betrayal of this character that we have come at last to the point where we affirm the Communist position—independent political action of the working class as a class free from all entangling alliances with the parties of our enemies, the bosses— and we claim the right to take this position without interference from those members in this council who are still so backward in their political thinking as to believe that the work- ers can gain from alliances with the organizations of their enemies, Furthermore, as Communists we de- lieve that “thé times are ripe, and rotten ripe for change,” in labor's economic orgamizations. Sixty years ago the plan of organizing workers by crafts and professions was in har- mony with social and industrial devel- opment, but today we affirm that such organizations, facing the united or- sanizations of the bosses, are obso- lete and ‘moribund? ‘The next step in the evolution of labor unions is to- ward unity—no more splits—no more dual unionism—class unity in the eco- nomic organizations, as in the politi- cal organizations of the workers. Oppose Jurisdictional Disputes. At the present time, great interna- tional unions, instead of fighting the bosses, fight each other. Witness the Present fatricidal war between the carpenters andthe sheet metal work- ers, which is*wrecking the California Building Trades Council, and in which fn some cages (as in Kansas City last summer) attempts have been made to organize ‘dual unions of carpen- ters to scab ‘on the union carpenters who were striking, (not against the bosses) but. against the sheet metal workers; ‘members of another union in the building industry. We maintain that these events, arising out of an out-worn form of organization (how- ever good such organization may have been in its day) are the real danger to our labor movement, and that such fights are disrupting, wrecking and trade unions, co-oper- re-| ative and farmers’ organizations, for spectability.

Another evidence might be mentioned, that the executive com- mittee called the convention in Min- neapolis, St. Paul and Duluth at a time wi workers could not attend, and as a result, these counties will send a block of delegates who will sup- Part the officials in their maneuvers.

The Com- munists in this connection raise the old trade union slogans: “In Unity is Strength.” or “United we Stand and Divided—into Craft Unions—We Fall.” The next step in industrial evolu- tion, the historical order of the day for trade unionists to consider, is the development of our present organiza- tions from craft to industrial unions, based on the present industrial and economic development ‘of society, (such as the United Mine Workers of America). The ‘present “condition where union fights union, instead of fighting the bosses, we declare as Communists will destroy organized labor unless it is checked; and against this tendency we raise the slo- gan: Amalgamate the Uniong Before the Amalgamated Organizations of the Bosses Destroy the Unions. Thinking workers, we submit, must all admit that the day has come, when we should create and build a labor movement, able and fit to cope with the industrial problems of the middle of the twentieth century, instead of relying on the forms of organization that were developed to fit the condi- tions of the middle of the last cen- tury—the conditions out of which craft unionism was born. Stagnation spells death, life means progress. The labor movempnt must move with the times if it is to prove of real service to the workers as a class. Future WXh Communism. These are two points in the Com- munist program on which we are well aware, many members disagree with us. But insofar as we have not pro- posed to expel them for their ideas, we deny them the right to censure us for our political opinions. And in answer to the charge that these Com- munistvideas disrupt the labor move- ment, we affirm on the contrary that such ideas put into practice will save the labor movement. Not the pro- gressive ideas of Communism, but the out worn forms of craft union organ- ization—a relic from a long dead cen- tury—together with the modern cen- tralized organizations of the bosses are breaking up and wrecking our la- bor movement. We maintain that the future will confirm the program,of the Commun- ists. Industrial unions will be the unions of tomorrow. Independent pg- litical parties of a class character will be the parties of tomorrow; and in standing today for these new ideas of labor we declare to you, fellow delegates, that social and industrial evolution is with us; that history it- self fights on our side, that the ideas we fight for today (and for holding which you may tonight expel us from this council) are the principles on which the labor movement of. the whole world will be based in years to come. We are fully aware, however, that any new idea is always opposed by conservatism, but looking back across history we see that all attempts to destroy ideas which were based upon real social factors (no matter how such ideas have been fought) have resulted in the final victory of said ideas. It has been said that “the blood of the martyrs was the seed of the church,” and we declare to you that instead of killing Communism by attacking us, you are building the Communist movement, and making Communists by your action. Will Continue Struggles. Furthermore, as Communists we declare to you that our reading of history shows us that the liberties and rights of the people have been won thru hundreds of years of strug- gle and suffering. We see pioneers of new thought and of new ideas, in all ages, hailed to prison, drawn and quartered, broken on the wheel, and even burned at the stake or lynched for fighting for the rights that we now enjoy, as a free gift from the struggles of these fighters in years gone by. We say to you that we woyld be renegadeg and traitors to the workers cause if, believing as we do, we permitted you to censure our convictions without a pysotest, We fully realize that we are in the minority, that we may be hope- lessly outnumbered in this fight; nevertheless if expelled from this council tonight, we will be compell to carry our protest to the members of those local unions who sent us here as delegates, and to the organized labor movement of Seattle and the state of Washington generally. Fail- ure to do this would render us moral cowards and mental prostitutes; be- lieving as we do, that our opinions as set forth above have a real value for the organized labor movement. Hence our appeal from your deci- sion (if you expel us tonight) to the body of organized labor. If expelled, we must try by all means in our power to vindicate our right to hold opinions contrary to those in this O'Flaherty Speaks Tuesday at North West Branch, W. P.

Remember that once the right to hold opinion is violated, no one knows where’ such action may stop. Today,! we are on trial; tomorrow it may be you will be pilloried. Therefore we | urge you to keep the record of organ- ized labor in Seattle clear from any | taint of heresy hunting, by voting against any motion which would ex- pel or victimize any one for their ideas or for their opinions.

WEST FRANKFORT, Ill, March 22. —Thousands of Southern ,Illinois miners and their families were nurs- ing their wounds inflicted by the tor- nado, with.no shelter other than in- adequate. tents to shield them from the biting March winds that are sweeping across the barren plains of “Egypt.” Doctors and nurses, worn out from caring for the injured for so many hours, are appealing for more aid. Many amputations were hastily made, some without anaesthetics, and the in- jured are threatened with blood poi- soning and pestilence as a result of the unsanitary conditions which pre- vail. The bodies:of six workers are still buried in the debries of the ©. and E. I. railroad coal chute which was toppled down by the storm. Peter Allard, member of the Work- ers (Communist) Party in Christo- pher, informed the DAILY WORKER that the towns of Christopher, Herrin, Marion, Dowell and Duquoine were un- touched by the storm. “I have not heard of any Workers Party member who was hurt by the storm,” said Comrade Allard, “Although some may have been hurt in West Frankfort.” The minérs working five hundred feet underground in mine No. 18 of the Industrial Coal company here when the storm broke, felt the shock of the tornado. The fan was put out of commission, and the electric lights went out’ The miners climbed to the surface by means of the airshaft lad- ders.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Mar. 22—The clash between the nationalist move- ment consolidated in the American government of Mustapha Kemal and British imperialism allied with feudal landlordism and the Mohammedan church is reaching a decisive stage as Kemal is mobilizing his army to crush the reactionary forces coming out of Kurdistan, led by Sheik Said. With these also is the commercial capital- ists of the seaport towns, who are influenced by British, interests very strongly. Kurdish Rebels Carry Koran, Recently all reactionary forces have combined to form the so-called progressive ren party, which attack of Kemal. The in- surgents are leading the nomadic tribesmen, numbering some 30,000 mounted men, who carry the green flag of the Holy Prophet and the kor- an as well into battle as instructed by the priests, while crying religious slogans. However, these nomads occassion- ally forget the fight against Kemal to plunder Turkish villages as a prof- itable side line, while neglecting the fight on the Angora government. The insurrection broke out in the eastern districts in which the large landowners dominate. And behind them is the power of English in- trigue interested in depriving Turkey of the great Mossul oil fields. Again the imperialism of oil impels a weak and backward people into civil war. Imperialism and the Church. The outbreak of the insurrection came deliberately at the time of the investigation of the Mosul question by a commission of the league of na- tions. It was also caused by the in- tention of the Kemal government to abolish the taxes levied by the church, which often reached as high as 80 per cent of the crop. Kemal is supported by the petty bourgeoisie of the cities which desires to liberate itself from imperialist con- trol and bring modern capitalism in being in Turkey. To do this Kemal is mobilizing 100,000 men, carrying on among them an intense propa- ganda to convince them that they fight for the republic against reaction and British imperialgsm. A tribunal of the government is be- ing sent to Kurdistan to try by mar- tial law the Kurdish rebels and to do summary justice to deserters who went over to the reactionary forces. HOOVER FAILS IN PLOT TO GET WORLD'S POTASH (Special to The Daily Worker.} WASHINGTON, D. C., March 22.— The French and German potash in- terests have combined into a syndicate which will dictate potash prices and markets, it is learned here. Germany controlled the potash fields until after the war, France confiscated Alsace- Lorraine, and with this territory part of the potash fields. The German-French syndicate now controls practically all the world’s Potash beds, just as Germany did be- fore the war. When Germany was in sole control of the potash beds, Amer- ican capitalists used the American embassy at Berlin, and the entire for- ces of the government in an efort to secure a reduction in the prices of potash.
