There is a dangerous tendency, said Foster, which says that nothing ean be done in the trade unions because of the resistance of the powerful bu- |rocracy. This leads to dual unionism and the tendency must be knocked on | the head. The tendency to limit our- | selves to work in the American Fede- |ration of Labor “at any price,” Foster, is equally dangerous. Comrade Foster dwelt on the im- | portance of trade-union organization lof the Negro workers, especially em- | phasized by the industrialization of the South, the need of amalgamating | the trade unions, the importance of |the work for a Labor Party. | Company unions must, he said, be penetrated by us or else destroyed | from the outside as circumstances dic. Our tasks in exposing to the | workers the role of “Labor banks” {s | facilitated by the recent events in | connection with the “labor bank” proj- ject of the Brotherhood Locomotive ingineers. [he left wing program for the American Federation of Labor con- vention must be built around the at- tack on the “higher strategy of la- bor,” said Comrade Foster. Sees Slackening of Industry.

In the campaign in the United Mine Work- ers’ Union the left wing elected its candidate and was counted out by the John L. Lewis machine. The analysis which we made of the mining situa- tion was correct. The Miners’ Union is in a deep crisis, said Foster. Tn a lockout which has lasted five months the office of John L. Lewis, president of the union, has not |turned a hand for the relief of the | workers, whose power of resistance will be weakened through the be- ginning of actual hunger. The speaker reviewed at length the bitter struggle in the needle trades, declaring that what“fits’ teen’ accomplished there has been in spite of enormous difficulties, | The Passaic strike, said Foster in many respects is a model of the way to organize the zanized. It repre- sents a typical uation which will often occur in our organizing work. Our general line was correct. The American Fe ration of Labor unfon absolutely refused to organize, so we established an independent union, but we did not pursue a policy of keep- ing these workers out of the mass of organized labor Comrade Foster said the policy of the Party in the organization cam- paign among the rubber workers was correct, but criticized the application of the policy as a “leftest” applicae tion.
