Issues of Vital | |The Workers (Communist) Party © District 8 has issued the following Waetement with regard to the muni- jpal elections to be held in Chicago 1 March 4: 9 All Chicago Labor Organizations: The Chicago city elections will be eld in April. Among the politicians the two old parties there is now al- bady a considerable scramble for the ‘bs to be filled. ) them. They are not paying the ightest attention to the interests of © Workers of this city; but they do rtively seek the favor of the bank- ‘s and big employers, those, whose pavy slush funds put over the’ “suc- »sstul” candidates. Differences Disappear, The differences between these tw d parties have disappeared long ago. ipartisan alliances are formed or dis. ylved according to the distribution o' wmpaign funds by the big capitalists | ad the combinations or quarrels mong the politicians. When labor aders and trade union officials par- cipate in this game of supporting ae set or another of these politicians, merely shows that they themselves ave lost sight of the interests of the orkers. They have become part and ircel of the capitalist political par- Ss and the staunch supporters of the -pitalist system which rules the city. It is precisely this system which dholds and encourages the practice antilabor injunctions. It is this ‘stem which encouraged the union- isting campaign of the once exist- g so-called citizens’ committee. It wrmitted thugs and gunmen to pro- ct imported scabs and sent the city alice to help in the work to estab- sh the “open shop”. It is this same ile which b ralleled corrup- on and themselves re- at is called the pres- on. Whether repub- rams or de’ s makes no differ- ace. oc : Vital Issues. There are many issues vitally ef- eting masses of workers fundamen- ly bound up with these coming Chi- § far, however, no peared champion- of the worke: > questions the Ct nere are t on problem, This is all it means | Chicago Workers Party Raises Interest to All Workers in 1 Manicipal Elections dodging by big corporations and what | the children as thinking human beings {s more important, questions of in- Junctions and conditions of labor in which labor and particularly its or- ganized sections should be interested. The Workers (Communist) Party, Chicago District, proposes that the or- ganized labor movement of the city of Chicago unite to put up a labor ticket sponsoring a labor program for these coming elections. The basis of |such movement to be the trade | unions, We propose a set of labor candi- dates to be selected by a conference of trade unions and other working class organizations willing to parti- cipate, and we suggest the following ssues to the attention of such con- erence. The Traction Problem. The franchise for the Chicago sur- ‘ace lines has again been extended for six months on a day to day bas- is, Roughly, the owners of the sur- face lines are “earning” annually 8 | per cent on a valution of $163,000,000. That is a profit of $13,400,000, aside from funds for maintenance and im- provements, high salaries for officials, etc. The Chicago transportation sys- tem is becoming completely trusti- fied with increasing profits and in- creasing exploitation of the workers employed. The interest of the working mass- es of the city of Chicago demands that there be no more franchise. As a solution of the traction prob- lem, we propose a system of munici- pal ownership of surface and elevat- ed lines with participation in the man- agement by the workers employed. We further propose: A reduction of fares on surface and elevated lines. The immediate building of a sub- way. Public Utilities. The thousands of dollars expended in the Illinois primaries slush funds prove the public utilities are run for big profits instead of what is claim- d, for the public weal, To really be of service there should be municipal ywnership of public utilities with par- icipation in the management by the orkers employed. There should further be made a re | { | | high schools. duction of rates of utility service, | Public Schools, The interests of capital on the Chi- | cago school board are today sponsor: | ing the platoon system and junior | On other words, a me- chanical system of education com- pletely negating any development of thru the platoon system and a segre- gation of the children of the rich and the poor thru the junior high. The schools as existing are overcrowded and becoming a real danger to the children, In this situation the intereste of la- bor demands that there be represent- atives of labor on the Chicago school board. That teachers’ councils be re-estab- lished and authorized to take over the immediate direction of the individual schools. The military training in the public schools be prohibited. Public Administration, Today out of thirty-six billion dol- larg taxable properties, taxes are as- sessed and collected by the city on a valuation of only four billion dollars. | Many large corporations entirely dodging permitted and that there be a revision of assessments of taxable properties, to tax in full all large cor- poration properties now escaping tax- ation, The interest of labor further de- mands that there be a thoro unioniza- tion of all city employes and workers on city jobs with wage increases com- mensorate with the requirements of a decent standard of living. Not only to employes in administrative posi- tions, but to all employes of the city including workers employed on city jobs. And finally the interest of labor de- mands: Prohibition of labor injunctions in labor disputes. No race segregation, but full eco- nomic and social equality of all races. These issues will form a practical basis for a labor program upon which labor candidates should be entered for the coming Chicago city council elec- tions. The establishment of such united labor ticket has become an actual need of the working masses of the city of Chicago. Workers (Communist) Party, District No. 8.

RUTHENBERG General Secretary, Workers (Communist) Party. HE Keep The DAILY WORKER campaign on January 13 showed close to $30,000 of the $50,000 fund has been raised. Altho we have not ralsed the total of $50,000, thig is an achievement for the party. With the contribu- tions whioh will still be made, and with The DAILY WORKER moving to its new base In New York City, we are in a fair way to overcome the crisis which threatened the life of The DAILY WORKER, The standing of the districts in raising their quota for the Keep The DAILY WORKER Fund jis las follows: District Quota Amount raised Percentage 4—Buffalo $ 1,100 $1,296.62 117.87 7—Detrolt 2,500 2,877.10 115.08 Agricultural... 400 389.85 97.46 10—Kansas City 1,000 962.64 96.26 8—Chicago ... 7,500 5,890.98 78.54 8—Philadelphia 3,000 1,888.74 62.96 13—San Francisco ... yenee 3,000 1,852.46 61.75 9—Minneapolis ......cdree 3,500 2,107.92 60.23 6—Cleveland .. 3,000 1,722.49 57.41 5—Pittsburgh 2,500 1,183.88 47.35 2—New York 15,000 6,920.49 46.14 12—Seattle 2,500 928.88 37.15 13—Boston 4,000 1,431.03 35.77 15—New Haven .. 1,000 330.92 33.09 Canada and Foreign sss 109.35 Tota! $50,000 $29,893.35 59.79 Many of the units of the party have not raised the quota of $5.00 per member which was set as the aim of every party unit in the campaign. These units are urged to continue to collect the funds resulting from the sale of the Keep The DAILY WORKER certificates and to endeavor to place their nucleus among those which appear in the honor list. On January 24 The DAILY WORKER will be published in New York City. With the strengthening of the editorial staff thru the comrades who will be drawn into the work of bullding our paper in its new location, The DAILY WORKER will become even a better working class revolutionary paper than it has been in the past. The removal of The DAILY WORKER to New York City places upon the eastern districts of the party, which have lagged far behind in the Keep The DAILY WORKER campaign, with the exception of Philadelphia, which has made a‘ fair showing, the responsibility of increasing their support. New York, Boston and New Haven, particularly, must come to the front by a continued campaign to raise their quota for the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund. The New York district promises to complete its quota of $15,000, which will boost the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund close to the $40,000 mark. The other districts must make a similar effort. The Chicago district has arranged a Keep The DAILY WORKER bazaar, thru which the balance of its quota will be raised and Chicago put over the 100% mark. While the daily drive for the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund in the columns of our paper has been discontinued, the work of raising the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund must be continued thru the work of the party organiation until the full $50,000 is raised. The completion of the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund, or a large part of the balance which ig still to be raised, will give us a sound foundation for the work of this year. The subscription drive, thru which the number of readers and sup CONDUCTED - BY TH By NAT KAPLAN. Article Il. AST year the petty-bourgeoisie op- position to militarism reached the colleges and quite a sentiment was created against the continuance of the compulsory military training in the colleges thru the war department in- strument known as the Reserve Offi- cers’ Training Corps (R. O. T, C.), In certain quarters where students from proletarian families influenced the sit- uation, real actions were undertaken as, for example, the big referendum vote against the compulsory military drill in the City College of New York and the mass meetings held therewith. Such actions must be extended. The Pink Opposition. The shortcoming of the movement is that it is permeated thru and thru with pacifism, the so-called pink anti- ‘astory Newspaper --Communist Shop Organs and needs of the workers, are an ex- lent medium of approach, and en- ven the newspapers. News of a magazines. As against these organs o£ the employing class our factory 1ewspapers must be developed as or- porters of The DAILY WORKER is to be increased, will have as its aim to increase the subscribers for The DAILY WORKER to 20,000, This sub- scription drive must be taken up with the same spirit which has been shown by the party in raising the Keep The DAILY WORKER fund. If we can win 20,000 subscribers, besides the newsstand circulation of our paper, we will assure that The DAILY WORKER will continue to serve our movement as t appear regu- | ries where women | young people are employed, their | if possible, a col-} worker who has been discharged or who has fallen ill thru overwork or ther hazards connected with his job; }comments on the economic need which compels both husband and wife |to work—such personal items make | more direct and real the questions of | wages, hours, safety measures, etc. | This aspect of the factory newspaper must receive careful attention. The shop paper, however, must not devote itself only to such questions as arise within the walls of the fac- tory. It must look beyond, envisage the labor movement as a whole. In order to relate the struggles of the workers of a particular plant to the | struggles of labor in general, to show the dependence of their conditions up- jon the conditions of the working class lin its entirety, the factory newspaper | should carry {tems about other work- ers in the same industry, news of the labor movement, of strikes and other |significant events illustrating the | class struggle. In this way the seeds of class solidarity will be planted and a basis laid for the development of class consciousness—one of the main foundations of shop papers. Party Campaigns and Shop Papers. HRU all this variety of material must run the binding thread of the party program and campaigns, Hach factory newspaper should link its con- tents to the special tasks of the Com- munist group within that factory; at the same time all shop papers must be definitely based on the work of the party as a whole, At the present time one of the big- gest campaigns of the party, which is also a vital need of the American la- bor movement, is organization of the unorganized workers, Most of the fac- tory papers in this country are pub- lished in unorganized shops or indus- tries. The tasks of the party group is therefore to agitate for organiza- tion, to point out the value of trade unionism, contrasting conditions in union and non-union shops, to urge affiliation with trade unions where these exist in the industry—as in the automobile plants and machine shops ~or lay the basis for their formation, Again, the party is engaged in a campaign against company unionism. It then becomes one of the concrete tasks of the party group in those plants where such unions exist to util- ize the shop paper for agitation in ling with this drive, In fact, the shop paper must become a platform for agitation against all “co-operation” schemes of the bosses calculated to develop a spirit of submission and weaken or destroy class conscious- ness. One of these schemes which ha: spread considerably within the pas decade is the publication of employe gans of the workers, exposing the uims of the company paper as instru- ments of capitalist propaganda, Every shop paper must present a definite program to the workers, em- bodying such demands as may be ne- cessitated by conditions within the shop and the program of our party. It igs not enough merely to call atten- tion to these conditions and then, as it were, leave the problem hanging in the air. Nor is it effective to deal with questions in a haphazard fash- ion. All these problems must be tied together, and a clear-cut program for the plant formulated by the Commu- nist fraction. The factory paper must raise these demands—whether it be the 8-hour day, or sanitary washrooms or an increase in wages—and system- atically rally the workers of the shop in support of them. These demands should be presented in the very first issue of each paper, and should form the main substance of all succeeding issues. Only in this way can the shop paper be the constructive guide of the workers in tle plant and es- tablish the influence of the Commu- nist fraction, The Importance of Political Agitation. HIS brings us to a very important problem, one which has presented the most difficulties in the preparation of factory newspapers, In discussing the contents of these papers we have thus far dealt principally with indus- trial and economic questions, which, as has been stated, constitute the bas- is of approach to the workers. The factory paper, however, is not purely an economic organ, concerned only with questions of wages and hours. It has a very definite political pur- pose, and must be developed as a rev- olutionary weapon, ‘Failure to grasp this, and a consequent failure to prop- erly relate and balance economics with politics, has proven the main weakness of factory newspapers in this country. It must be clearly understood that the factory newspaper is not simply a trade union paper. True, it deals extensively with trade union organ- ization and economic demands; but while its immediate objective may be the organization of the unorganized, the betterment of conditions in the shop, its goal is not trade unionism. Nor is it simply a medium for a gen- eral airing of discontent and dissat- isfaction with the situation in the fac- tory. Thus the problems of organiza- tion and economic demands must be written up in such a way that the smployes should see them in their re- ation to the class struggle in its en- {rety, and the battle of the workers or power and contfol. (Continued tomorrow.) a one of its most important weapons in While the outlook of The DAILY the fight against capitalism. WORKER for the future is improved, every party member, every unit of the party, every sympathizer with our movement, must realize that a working class revolutionary paper can only live and grow strong thru the continued, day to day, enthusiastic support of those who stand with it in its fight.

M, C. \., the Y, W. C. A,, ete, The recent Milwaukee conference of the college ‘Y’s” after declaring in the discus- sion against militarism and imperial- ism did not even pass a resolution on the question under the pretext that resolutions are of little value anyway. This students’ movement is per- meated with the ideology of indeci- sion, of running from pillar to po: of not acting but experimenting ani investigating, of educating one’s self for the future. “You have only three summers of your college life,” says the New Student, organ.of the Nation- al Student Forum in its April, 7, 1926, issue, “Use them experimentally, Try new thots and different beliefs.” This wavering attitude, a reflex of the eco- nomic status of the petty-bourgeoisie in capitalist society, is brought home even more clearly in an editorial of the New Student of March 3, 1926: “There are more student writers gathered in this number than we have had together at once in quite a length of time; there is also more disagreement between them and the editors than usual. SOME OF THEM WE BELIEVE ARE WRONG FROM START TO FINISH. THESE ARE NOT SPECIFIED HERE, BUT THEY ARE A RATHER INTELLI- GENT GROUP, ARE THEY NOT?” (My emphasis.—N, K.) Red Baiting. Here we see a..paper without an editorial policy, without a line, afraid to criticise what it disagrees with. And if you think that the above quo- tation means “freedom of expression” to all, including Communists and par- ticularly the Communist anti-militar- ist struggle, let us disillusion you. There is nothing but misrepresenta- tions and perversions of the Commu- nist position in this sheet. For example, when the Young Workers (Communist) League was participating in two working youth conferences which were dominated by non-Communist young workers organ- izing to fight for unionization and bet- ter conditions; when we were trying to broaden out these conferences to include as large a number of non- Communist young workers as pos- sible, the New Student did its bit in trying to destroy support for the con- ferences thru the following note in its issue of April 28, 1926: “The Young Workers (Communist) League » ME Yor pes ty a < thet i AR RES PN bh i MER eS < SE e SN cean eer dar ae eden + WORKEDS ING WORKERS LEAGUE & PETTY BOURGEOIS PACIFISM be admit- Other ex non-league members. will ted by special permission.” jamples of anti-red propaganda can be shown in this sneet. The height of activity of the petty- bourgeoisie ‘students is to pass resolu- tions, which after being passed, are neatly shelved. And resolutions on what’ questions? ‘Resolutions on all the reformist slogans which have been shouted so.much since the world war by the social democrats aand the bour- geoisie pacifists and have so miser- ably failed. Pacifist Slogans, The New Student editorially con- sratulates the resolutions of the In- terdenominational Students’ Confer- ence held in Evanston, Ill., Dec. 29 to Jan, 1, 1926, which declares: “In particular we urge the imme- diate ratification of the protocol of the Permanent Court of Interna- tional Justice at the Hague, partici- pation of the United States in form- ulating plans for the projected dis- armament conference and entry into the League of Nations.” But slogans of entering the world court and disarmament are the slo- gans of Wall Street and the Wall Street Coolidge government in Wash- ington. Yet the petty-bourgeoisie pa- cifists gobble up these slogans and speed the illusion that peace will come if the United States enters the International Robbers’ Combine known as the League of Nations thru its back door, the world court.’ The class conscious workers know of the atrocities committed against the op- pressed colonist masses in China, Syria and Morocco, etc., during the reign of the league and under the slo- gan of peace. Théy saw the league turn over Mosul oil to the British tm- perialists. They see the American imperialists extending ons hand to the world court afid with the other hand invading Nicaragua, preparing for si- milar action in Mexico, rushing gun- boats to China. Disarmament Bunk, Then they spread the illusion that the bourgeoisie governments will dis- arm in the face of an increased tem- po in the race for More armaments by the capitalist governments. The young workers must realize that the capitalist governments will never dis- arm themselves. They need a large armed force to quell the national re- volution in their colonies, to ‘fight their tiyals-in. the struggle to domi- nate the world, to fight the oppressed masses at home in their revolutionary struggle against capitalism’ (strikes, ete.), to fight against revolutionary governments, Thus we see that militarism is part of capitalism and to abolish militarism means in the first place to abolish capitalism. “Universal disarmament” means that the Soviet Union must dis- arm in the face of an armed antagon- istic imperialist world, that the Sacasa liberals must lay down their arms in face of the American marines and sail- ors, that the Cantonese must disarm. We are opposed to such disarmament and in favor of the war for national liberation, for the revolutionary gov- ernment to protect its interests, for the class war. The slogan of “univer- sal disarmament” is reactionary and perverts the real struggle against the manufacture and transport of war ma- terial. (Continued.)
