DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JA ARY 12, 192 9 Page Three By MARTIN HANKIN The major tasks for our coming convention are clearly evident. Mobilizing the Party fully for a) struggle against the “Right danger and Trotskyism,” as a necessary preparation for struggle against the war danger, is the foremost task facing our coming convention. The Comintern has clearly indi- cated the road to be followed in this struggle against deviations from a Leninist line by pointing out the er- rers to the Right committed by our Party, rejecting at the same time the accusations made by the “Oppo- sition” against the leadership of our Farty. 5 The Central Executive Commit- tee, ty accepting the decisions of the Comintern without any reserva- tions and by its efforts to unite the entire Party for a militant campaign against the Right danger and against Trotskyism, has proven that the confidence of the Comintern in the ability of the C. E. C. to correct the errors of the Party and to lead the Party on the Leninist line was fully justified. The Party membership is fully aware of those facts and will act accordingly in its selection of dele- gates to the coming convention. But the coming conyention will not have done its duty if it will merely sat- isfy itself with endorsing a political theses against the Right danger and against Trotskyism; it must go further than that; it must work out tke main line for the conduct of this struggle both ideologically and erganizationally. | The theses adopted by the last {Plenum of the C.

It remains now for the pre- jconvention discussion and the con- | vention itself to coneretize the prin- | ciples expressed in the theses and jthereby jay the organizational basis for the elimination of all weaknesses that stand in the way of rooting cut the danger of Right wingism in cur Party. . One Party—One Leadership. The prolonged factional strife, the system of factional loyalty as su- perior to Party loyalty, has gone a long way in undermining the con- |ception of Communist discipline in |our Party. It has hampered the or- |ganizational growth of our ranks ‘ard the ideological development of our membership. It is partly be- jeause of this impermissible condi- tion that Trotskyism could make its ‘appearance in our ranks at this | date, Without a factional situation | Trotskyism could be combatted much livore effectively. It is only because |that we find the California district jheaded by a district organizer who has consistently over a long period {committed the worst kind of Right ‘errors and has on top of that stub- |bornly resisted the attempts of the | . E, C. to correct his non-Commu- | nist line. | The coming convention must |make it clear that the Party will no longer satisfy itself with proclama- tions against factionalism.

E, C. and 47 for the Opposi- tion, the following resolution was introduced on behalf of the C. E. C.: “The membership meeting of San Francisco declates: “(1) We accept and will carry out all decisions of the Communist In- ternational without any reservations whatsoever. “(2) We endorse unreservedly the theses of the Sixth World Con- gress of the Communist Interna- tional which estimatés the world position of American imperialism, the perspectives of the class strug- gle in America, the degree of radi- calization, the Right danger as the | main danger, and the war danger, and the possibility of mass struggle. “(3) In line with the above we aecept and endorse the theses adopted by the Plenum of the Cen- tral Executive Committee and the yvesolution for the mobilization of the Party for the struggle against the Right danger and Trotskyism, as printed.in the Daily Worker Dec. 24, 1928, “(4) We acept as self-criticism the thirteen points listed under the heading ‘Manifestation of the Right danger’ as especially applicable to District 13. “(b) We wish to add as one of the Right errors of the C. E. C. the failure to remove the district organ- izer of District 13 for his glaring and gross opportunist line main- tained in violation of the instruc- tions and line of the C. E. C. as especially shown by his: e (a) capitulation before difficul- ties in failing to mobilize the dis- triet to put California on the bal- lot: (b) the open letter to the so- cialist party of California; (¢) re- sistance to organizing the unor- ganized: (d) resistance to carry- jing on anti-militarist | work; (e) failure to carry on trade union work; (f) failure to organ- ize a Negro department of the District Executive Committee and underestimation of Negro. work; (gz) failure to work among most important exploited sections of the working class. especially Mex- cans, Negroes, Philippines, Japa- nese, ete., in California and Ari- zona; (h) bureaucracy and polit- ical incompetency; (i) driving proletarian elements out of the Party and maintaining the social composition of the distri:t on the basis of 60 per cent non-vrole- tarian and 40 per cent workers; {j) complete failure to build the T, U.

C. and fail- ure to carry on work among the women; (0) advocating the theory of permanent factionalism in our Party; (p) corrupting of prole- tarian elements by poisoning their minds against the leadership of the Communist International and of its American section; (q) un- derestimation of the Right danger and of the war danger; (s) fail- ure to maintain Bolshevik discip- ~ tion of the role of the Party and of its achievements in the class struggle; (t) failure to admit and correct Right errors, and instead attempts to mobilize the whole membership of District 13 against the C. E. C., which unanimously pointed out these errors; (u) mis- conception of the role and the achievements of the Russian and Chinese revolutions, publicly be- fore the whole working class (un- employment leaflet); (v) break- ing down the authority and influ- ence of the leadership of the Comintern by speculating upon supposed differences _ between Bukharin and Stalin in the Polit- buro of the C. B.S. U.; (w) re- ducing the ideological level of the membership by carrying on petty intrigues, especially ‘within the language fractions, and failure to carry on adequate educational work; (x) general unfitness to represent our Party before the masses an-* to defend the Party and the Nwrxian-Leninist line of the C. I against the social re- formers, the socialist party and the reactionary trade union bu- reaucrats as illustrated in the | Levin-King debate; (y) forming united fronts from above, espe- | cially in. opposition to the de- isions of the C, I. and the Profin- tern and of our C.
