Discord over farm relief legislation created an “open spot” on the senate calendar, with four groups struggling to use the lull to iG their pet meas- ures. Decision of senate leaders to post- pone consideration of farm relief bills until after the house has passed on them developed the legislative clash. | Advocates of the migratory game bird | bill, the Dill radio control act, the civil service retirement bill and pension legislation immediately launched drives to get their measures on the toboggan to enactment. Only with the help of administration leaders can any one of the measures be successful, owing to the combined opposition of the other groups.

The progressive delegates, many of whom are active trades union members, paid very great attention to the new con- stitution to see to it that no jokers were put in by which the reaction- aries could at all times get the bet- ter of the progressive . delegates. Those delegates, who are members of trade unions and pave seen how con- stitutions operate in some of the unions against the progressives, were determined to remedy that evil at the first dpportunty in this convention. Article 100, which allows the exe- cutive committee to appoint agents or organizers to get new members into the society was contested by the pro- gressive delegates. Delegate Mary Mrnjec pointed out that there was no need to have any special agents to get in new members as each mem- ber should see the need to-get in members and that it was only in that way could the organization expect to jCONDUCTGD “BY TH By CLARENCE MILLER, HE company union is formed by the bosses to keep the workers from organizing into a real worker's union, At the same time it makes the workers feel that they are organized. The constitutions of these so-called unions are such that they are simply lickspittles of the bosses. When the workers do try to form a union and go out on strike they use this “union” as a strike-breaking agency. That Is what the Forstmann & Huffmann Co. In Passaic is now doing. The needs of the workers, young and old, is more wages, shorter hours, and more sanitary’ conditions, and these are achieved only thru the strug- gle of the real union, and, what more, these union workers gain in self- rgspect and self-reliance in their struggles thru these conditions. Kills Self-Reliance. The company union, on the other tnand, not only kills in the young worker that feeling of self-reliance and self-respect but it also makes the workers better and more willing slaves. Hand in hand with company unions usually go the speed-up sys- grow. “Every member of the organization should be the agent who will bring in new members to our organization and work in the interests of the organiza- tion,” declared Mrnijec. Following the opening of the twen- tieth session of the convention, a bou- quet of flowers was handed to the re- actionary leader Lupis of Chicago. The bouquet was handed to him by his friends for his work in “unifying the two organizations.” This present- ation of the bouquet was met with 4 great laugh from the delegates, as Lupis and a number of other reac- tionaries obtained an injunction against the unity move and forced the organization involved to spend $150,- 000 in order to accomplish unity, Get your friends to subscribe to the American Worker Correspondent.

Scientific wor! on physical culture are being publjghed in great volume. The Ukrainiag physical cul- ture organization publishes the best magazine in the Soviet Union. After Comrade Pretzanko reported, Comrade Reissner, segretary of the Red Sport International, took the floor. In his speech he pointed out that the bourgeoisie Know very well the value of physical culture movement and is making good use of it to strengthen its control over the proletariat. The capitalist sport organizations are very strong. In Germany, the bourgeoisie sport organizations number close to 6,000,000 and in Czecho-Slovakia and France close to a million. With the help of these organizations the capi- talists are educating the workers in the spirit of chauvinism, imperialism, and fascism. However, the workerg are beginning to understand that ie capitalist sports’ organizations us not leading them in the direction in which their real interests lie, They, are beginning to realize that they it have prole- tarian sports’ organisaiiins which are based on their class interests. With this in mind latger and larger numbers of workers aré deserting the bourgeois sports’ organizations and adhering to the red Sports’ interna. tional. One of the concluding actions of the congress was Caen on the staging of an international working class sport Olympiad during 1928.

Real Union Develops Members. ‘While a real workers’ union tries te develop its young members by push- ing them forward, giving them # chance to study and learn things by making and fighting for the demands of the union and for a spectal demand of the young workers and thereby de- veloping their self-respect and self- reliance, the company union takes special efforts*to see that the young worker has plenty of amusements and nothing else during his leisure time. The young workers are usually not given a chance to work on any of the important committees of the company union. The company union pushes forward to the responsible positions only those whom they are sure to control. These are usually trained stool pigeons and spies and those who are willing to become traitors for a petty job. The young workers are usually more honest and sincere. They are not yet spoiled much by the bosses’ propaganda, and for this reason they are kept in the background, and are not given a chance to develop, All in all, it is now the duty of each young worker to fight against these fake unions, and get into a real work» ers’ union that will fight for conditions for the young and old worl ers. .
