Workers (Communist) Party ‘FORD WORKER,’ SHOP BULLETIN, VERY POPULAR Over Ten Thousand Are Given Out to Workers (Special to The Daily Worker) DETROIT, Mich, June 20.—The Ford Worker, issued by the Ford Nu- clei of the Workers (Communist) Party of America, Detroit local, is re- ceiving splendid response from the highly exploited workers in the three Ford plants of Detroit, Highland Park and River Rouge, Michigan. The papeg is issued jointly by the nuclei, and all of the articles and sto- ries are written by the workers them- selves, Three Issues, Fifteen hundred copies of the dest’ issue were distributed; 3,500 of the second and 5,500 of the last issue. This despite the many interferences. on the part of Ford’s special police. A report on the distribution of the paper states: “Altho only three. is- sues have been printed during the last three months, it has already had “a great effect on the workers in the. plants. “Of course, the bosses and the police tried to stop the distribution of the paper, when we tried selling the paper for a penny apiece, after free distribu- tion was prohibited; they tried te stop it because they said it was not a paper but a pamphlet. Secret Service. “ “The secret service men in the em- ploy of the Ford Motor Company are the ones that hinder us most. In spite of all difficulties we managed to get 5,500 papers out among the workers. Some of the workers bought as many as twenty copies each. “Our ‘newsboy’ took 200 copies of the paper with her the first day and sold them all in no time. The next day she took 400’and was ‘mobbed’ by the workers who wanted the® paper. When she had no more she told the crowd that she would have 1,000 more the next day. The next day she had 1,400 papers with her and got two other friends to help her sell them: Of course, the Ford officials didn’t like to see the Ford workers so anxiously buying the paper, so they again tried to interfere. Very Popular. “All the workers are talking about the paper and in my department a dis- cussion arose and the paper got a lot of support. Everyone claimed it was the best thing they ever read. Many of the workers are anxious to subscribe to the paper. One worker writes: ‘I am very pleased to find one paper that will print the truth about the Ford slavery.” Another says: ‘I had the pleasure of seeing your paper this morning in the shop, but the man ‘who had it was too busy reading it and would not part with the paper.’” This paper is one of the best of the 27 shop papers being published by the shop nuclei of the Workers (Commu- nist) Party of America thruout the country and is one that promises to grow in the influence it is gaining on the workers of its shop.

Despite this the workers dug into their pockets and gave pennies, nickles and dimes. Many pitiable tales of suffering were told to the collectors by these work- ers, who have produced abundantly— for the bosses—all necessities of life and have nothing now to show for it but shabby clothes, calloused hands and ill health. The collectors who were well in- formed on the Passaic strike situation and unemployment, answered hug, dreds of questions—questions ‘ “When are they going to win ‘Will they stick to their Union?” “Will there be a strike in Lawrence after the Passaic strike?” “What can the united front do for the unemployed?” The collectors had a very busy day answering so many and all kinds of questions—but they feel that the united front is now closer than ever to the workers and that very soon Lawrence, like Passaic, will have a 100 per cent organization. The four highest collectors were—Fred E, Beal, $74.49; William Murdoch, $71.38; Mary Siskind, $65.23 and... Sheffts, $30.63. The total amount collected was $437.79.

How to Build Our Party = “5A: sin 'T is not enough to continuously com- plain, talk and cry about the weak- ness of the organization of the Work- ers (Communist) Party. Such talk only reminds us that we have a task before us, that there is very urgent and important work to be done, but it will not, by itself, strengthen and build a mass party for us. We must also have plans for building up the party organization and apply them in prac- tice. In this short article I, want to make a few practical suggestions which, I think, if carried on by respon- sible party committees and the mem- bership as a whole, woe bring us good results, . As I have already said in my article, can- not build a mass Communist Party without at the same time carrying on energetic, wholehearted Communist work among the masses of the work- .ers, without participating in their everyday struggles and helping them to organize themselves for the resist- lance against the onslaught of the capi- talist class, This is fundamental, Any other conception is wrong, sectarian and will not lead us to success. But, on the other hand, it is also wrong to think that the party will build itself without spécial, intensive, hard, everyday organizational work— in approaching the’ sympathizers and drawing them into the ranks of the party membership. It is a mistake to think that these sympathizers, without special efforts on our part to'get them into the ranks, some Monday morn- ing will flock i) our party. During the period of “peacefulness” and “stag- nation” the workers do not come and join the Communist Party en masse. ‘That happens only in a period of great upheayal, especially after great victo- ries on_ Pag part of the working class a @ leadership of the Commu- te WH: met lan tow and yt a these sympathizers with a special ropagends ane sopeal 10 fin, the party. Every party committee and also the units of the party (shop nuclei and international branches) should take up this question from time to time, study it, invéstigate all possi- bilities of getting new members. So far we have neglected this important question. Neither the committees nor the units paid serious attention to it. At various party meetings it was passed by as unessential. The Workers’ Party is also arrang- ing mass meetings on different occa- sions. I noticed that at these meet- ings hardly anybody takes time and patience to explain to the workers the composition, the role in the class struggle and the aims of the Workers (Communist) Party. Again and again it happens that at a*mass meeting three or four comrades deliver lengthy speeches, They talk almost on every question under the sun, but say abso- lutely nothing about our party and the necessity of the workers joining its ranks. In my opinion, we must change these tactics immediately. Our speakers must have a little conference among themselves and divide up the subjects for discussion. At least one of them (if there are two or three who are to speak at that particular meeting) must devote his entire lecture on the Work- ers’ Party and make an earnest appeal to the workers to come and join the movement. It is not sufficient to say: “Well, workers, you know what the Communist Party is doing and if you agree with its tactics and principles, then join its ranks.” We must time and again at mass meetings tell the workers what kind of work our party is doing, what it stands for, what are its tactics’ and principles. We must not ‘be afraid that the same workers who come to our meetings will hear the same talk on the party several times. It will not hurt them, neither will it in any way lower us in their eyes. On the.contrary, they will see that we are consistent, that we want them in our movement very badly, High i ai lien rme: i that the interests of the working class demand them to be in the movement, that we will not stop talking about it till we convince them that they must be in the ranks of the revolutionary army. i UR party: is reorganized on the shop nuclei basis. Party nuclei are in direct contact with the workers in the shops/and factories. They know many workers in the shops person- ally. Do our comrades make it one of their tasks to talk to the more ad- vanced workers, to the sympathizers, about their duty to join the Workers’ Party? Do the nuclei at their meet- ings take up @nd discuss the question how to bring’ these sympathizers in the shop into our party? No, it was not done, or, at least, the majority of the comrades and of the nuclei did not consider this question seriously. Higher party, Ms abtons did not im- press the members and the lower units that recruiting of new members into the party is one of their major tasks, that it is a part of their everyday ac- tivities. It is a fact,that during the reorgani- tation the party ‘has lost a portion of {ts membership. Many,comrades failed to register or to join new party units because they did not understand the new organization, I do not agreé with those comrades who maintain that we must not bother with these “deserters” because they are “good for nothing,” anyhow. I believe that tne majority of them are sincere workers and are fit to be members of our party. We must approach them in the spirit of comradeship and try to win them back into the party. We can prove to them from experience that they ma mis- take in dropping out from the party because mike Wwe that reorganiza- tion is a mis' ‘We can point out to them by examples that the reorganized party is more, efficient and more ef- fective in its work among the masses. And now I. to the party press, English, as well as the language pa- pers, I maintain that our press aa oo, not carry on sufficient propaganda amongst its readers for the party. It did not emphasize to our membership that they are not fulfilling their duties when they do not strive to bring new blood, new members into our party. Someone may say that it is not neces- sary to agitate our comrades on such a simple point; they know it anyway, but it isn’t so. We found out from ex- perience that our own comrades need agitation, persuasion and propaganda to make them move to one direction or another. All of us need to be urged, to be reminded about our everyday work and tasks. The party press in the future must pay more attention to this question, It is understood, of course, that we cannot and must not disregard certain party regulations in accepting new members into the party. We cannot take in everybody who comes along and expresses their willingness to en- ter our movement. .We must be on guard against elements foreign to the working-class movement. Spain Soon to Follow Brazil in Goodbye to the League of Nations MADRID, June 20.—Spain’s formal withdrawal from the league of nations may go forward shortly. This is the interpretation which is placed upon a speech by Professor Yanguas, foreign minister, at a banquet here, Professor Yanguas announced that Spain intends to send no representa- tive to the league of nations assembly in September, which is considered equivalent to an announcement that Spain will follow Brazil in withdraw- ing from the league because her de- mand for a permanent seat on the league council has been denied. SEND IN A SUB! On Lo Vicseow ANEW NOVEL Upton Sinclair (Copyright, 1926, by T ton Sinclair) WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE » ARNOLD ROSS, oil operator, formerly Jim Ross, tearister, drives over the smocth California roads with his young son, Bunny’, beside him on the wai to Beach City. In the hotel they meet Ross’s lease-hound, Ben Skutt, who has arranged for Ross to meet a group of property owners, whose land Ross is anxious to get because it cofMtains oil. Those that own the lands at first agree to share alike. But intrigues soon split the group. A mumber of oil promoters bribed a few of the more influential ones in an attempt to get the lease. Skutts enters with Ross and the ‘boy, when. the discord. is at its highest point. them to sign a lease with Ross. At the moment when threats begin to fly Skutt introduces Ross. Ross arisis and in his southwestern. American. language tells the owners that he is an oi! man; that they must beware of mere promoters and crooks; that he will drill quick and drill right and guarantee them good royalties. Many of the owners are impressed. But there are still recalcitrant ones. Bunny is sitting near the window taking it-all in, A boy appears at the window... He tells Bunny he is Paul Watkins and the lady of the house his aunt. He ran away from home but he is afraid his aunt will send him back. He wants Bunny to go out in the kitchen on the excuse he wants a drink and open the back door. Then Paul van sneak in and get something to eat. Bunny does this and slips out of the house. While Paul eats the borrowed food, they talk. He tells Bunny his father is a “Holy Roller’. That’s why he left home.. Bunny offers him money, but he refuses to take it. As.Bunny is inviting Paul for dinher at the hotel next day a scrap starts in the house. The meeting ends in a row and Ross comes out in disgust and. says he doesn’t want the lease. Just before. they get into the car Bunny runs off to find Paul, Paul has gone. Bunny is very down-hearted, CHAPTER II. The Drilling. Once more the valleys and gorges of Guadalupe Grade re- sounded to the flying echoes of honking horns. This time it was not one car, but a whole fleet of them, a dozen seven-ton trucks, broad and solid, with broad and solid double wheels, and trailers on behind, that carried even more tons. The first load towered high, a big stationary engine, held in place by heavy timbers bolted fast at the sides; that truck went carefully round the curves, you bet! works”; and then the “string” of drilling tools, hollow tubes of the best steel, that were screwed end to end and went down into the earth, a mile or more, if need be. These tubes extended over the end of the trailers, where red flags waved in warning; on the short curves they swept the road, and if you met a car coming in the opposite direction, you had to stop while the other car crept carefully by; if there was not room enough, the other car would have to back up to a place where the road was straighter. All this required continuous clamor of horns; you would have thought some huge flock of prehistoric birds—did the pterodac- tyls make noises?—had descended upon Guadalupe Pass, and were hopping along, crying: “Honk! Honk! Honk!” What they were really saying was: “Dad is waiting for us! Dad has signed his lease, and the derrick is under way, and his ‘rig’ must be on time! Clear the road!’ Dad would not trust to railroads for a rush job like this; they switched your stuff onto sidings, and you spent a.week telephoning and interviewing dumb officials. But when you hired motor-trucks, you owned them for the time being, and they came right through. There was insur- ance to cover all possible accidents—including the value of any man you might chance to send rolling down a mountain-side in a Ford car! So here came the dozen valiant tooters, toiling slowly up the grade, at far less than the ordained speed of fifteen miles per hour. Their radiators were hissing with steam. and every mile or so they would have to'stop and cool off. But they got to the summit al right; and then came the slow crawl downwards, a man going ahead with a red flag, warning other cars into safe pockets on the road; to wait till the whole fleet had got by. So they got out ofthe pass; and onto the straight road, where they could go flying like any other cars; then it was a mighty roaring and a jolly sight. “Honk! Honk! Get out of the way! Dad is wating!” Perched on top of the drilling-tools were young fellows in blue-jeans and khaki, giving abundant evidence that their last well had not been a dry hole, but had given its due yield of smeary treasures. However, they had got their faces clean, and they met the sunny landscape with no less sunny smiles. They sang songs, and exchanged jollifications with the cars they passed, and threw kisses to the girls in the ranch-houses and the filling- stations. the orange-juice parlors and the “good eats” shacks. Two days the journey took them, and meantime they had not a care in the world; they belonged to Old Man Ross, and it was his job to worry. First of all things he saw that they got their pay- envelopes every other Saturday night—and that the envelopes contained one dollar per day more than anybody else in the field was getting; moreover, you got this pay, not only while you were drilling, but while you were sitting on top of a load of tools, fly- ing through a paradise of orange-groves at thirty miles an hour, singing songs about the girl who was waiting for you in the town to which you were bound. Oh, merry goes the world when the heart is young! Dad had signed up with the man on the North slope, Mr. Bankside, a gentleman who knew what he wanted, and didn’t waste your time, . It was not so close to the discovery well, there- fore Dad would have-to pay only a sixth royalty, and a bonus of five thousand dollars:on the two and,one-half acres. Dad had been over the field’ with his geologist, and he believed he knew where the pool lay; he had Ben Scutt rustling up other leases, Dad and Bunny called at the offices of the Sunset Lumber Company, and had a very special private interview with the presi- dent of this concern.’ Mr. Ascott wag a heavy gentleman with flushed checks and a manner of strenuous cordiality; he rump- led Bunny’s hair, and swapped cigars in gold-foil, and discussed the weather and. the prospects of the new. field,.so that you'd have thought he and Dad were life-long chums. Until at last Dat got down to business, and said that he positively had to have the lumber for a derrick delivered on the ground within three days; whereupon Mr. Ascott threw up his hands and declared that such an order could not be filled for God Almighty himself, The demand for derrick material had simply emptied all the yards, and orders were piling up a score a day. But Dad inter- rupted—he knew all that, but this was something special, he had jist got himself into a contract with a big forfeit posted at the bank, and he didn’t believe in steel derricks. but the lumber men sure have to help him, unless they wanted to lose him for good. He wanted to place an order for half dozen more derricks, to be delivered in the course of the next three months; and more- He attempts to get over, Mr, Ascott must understand that this well Dad proposed . to drill was going to extend the field, and lead to new devel ments, and a big increase in the lumber business, so it was a public service Dad was performing, and they must all stand to- gether and help.him. Moreover, Dad was forming a little syn- 6 to handle a part of this first well—jist a malas affair an people that knew a good thing when they saw it, and pciasd. getting in on the ground floor; and Mr. Dad for a man of his word, and no piker, (To be continued.) aS we Behind it came the “mud-hogs” and the “draw- .. ant
