Page Three — GROWTH OF TRADE U.S, AND U.S.S.R SHOWN IN FACTS Increased Despite Non- Recognition The total of Soviet-American trade in the past five years was something in excess of $500,000,000. This sum, amounting to about 15 per cent of the total Soviet foreign trade for the period, includes not only the export and import operations of the Am- torg but also the turnover of the All-Russian Textile Syndicate, which purchases cotton for the Soviet tex- tile industry, Centrosoyus and Sels- kosojus, representing the Soviet) consumers’ and agricultural cooper- atives respectively, and of the Am- kino Corporation, which distributes | “the films of Sovkino and other So-| viet moving picture producing or- | ganizations, In view of the considerable expan- | sion of Soviet industries, which have increased production on the average of over 20 per cent <anvally during the past few years, and the corre- | sponding growth of foreign trade operations, the planned expansion of Soviet foreign trade during the) coming few years, as set down in the | five year plan now under consider- ation by the Congress of Soviets, does not seem at all improbable. If) the program is fulfilled, Soviet im- ports five years from now will be practically double those of Ist year, | which amounted to $490,000,000, while the total for five years will| come to more than three billion dol- | Jars. It would be impossible to say | now what the shc=> of the United States in these imports may be. In the last two years the United Statos supplied 22 per cent of Soviet im- ports. What this percentage will be in 1933 is dependent not only upon the demand for machinery and othe: products, which the United States is; well able to supply, but also on a number of other considerations.

German Metal Union Reformists Split BERLIN (By Mail).—The_ re- formist lesders of the German Metal Workers Union have deposed the oppositional leadership of the pipe- layers’ branch and have formed a new split-away branch. Up to the present the hew branch has suc- ceeded in winning ten workers! Tho old leader: of the branch called a meeting which, despite the threats ef the reformists, was attended by 2.500 organized pipelayers, With all votes against one single vote a decision was adopted to retain the books of the union and not to pay | any more contributions to the re- formist leadership. ressing in particular that the pipelayers are energetically oppoced to any split in the union and to the for m of any parallel organi: tion, but are also determined to fight for the elementary rights of the members, an appeal was made te other branches of the Metal Workers Union calling upon them to support the overwhelming major- ity of the pipelayers’ section of the | union in its firm stand behind its ly elected leaders and officials. Soviet textile mills are also being cupplied by cotton from Egypt. The requirements of the Soviet electrical industry have necessitated imperts of copper, in spite of the development of the home industry. country totaled $105,000,000.

The Soviet Union has | a favorable trade balance with most of the other countries with whom it does business. In fact, the results | of the past five years show a net unfavorable trade balance of only slightly above $60,000,000, which was covered partly by exports of gold and partly by long-term credits. This year a favorable trade balance has | been reported for practically every month. Over a year ago a consign- ment of gold, mined and smelted in the Soviet Union, was shipped by the State Bank of the U. S. S. R. to the United States but was not accepted i by the United States assay office. | With an unfavorable trade balance | which not only wipes out the Soviet | favorable balance with other coun- tries, but in some years even neces- sitates exports of gold, the problem of creating normal conditions for} the movement of gold to the United States, similar to those enjoyed by Soviet gold in Europe, must be solved. Soviet purchases in the United States have been growing at a fair- ly steady rate, with exception being made for the year 1924-25, in which year exports from this country reached an unusually high figure, due primarily to the purchase of over $20,000,000 worth of flour, an emergency purchase necessitated by the failure of crops in the Soviet Union. No such purchases have been made since that year. Omitting the fiscal year 1924-25, when Soviet purchases in this country totaled $86,938,000, the following totals for Soviet purchases in the United States are obtained: 1923-24 ... 1925-26 . $43,916,000 | 48,560,000 | 1926-27 . 71,689,000 | 1927-28 . ++ 91,282,000 | In the half year beginning Oct. 1,! '928, orders for the U. S, S. R, toa 1 value of nearly $50,000,000 were placed in this country, indicat- ing the strong possibility of another ord year. Large purchases were also made by the torg Trading Corporation in April and May, 1929. The growth of American exports to the Soviet Union affected practical- ly all groups of commodities. The greater part of the purchases in this country for the past five years was made up of raw materials, partic- ularly cotton, Purchases by the Textile Syndicate since its inagura- tion in December, 1923, up to May, 1929, amounted to slightly over 8,000,000. Scores of ships have en chartered to bring American -eotton to the Soviet port of Mur- mansk on the Arctic coast and to ‘other Soviet ports in the north and on the Black Sea. In spite of the rapid expansion, of cotton cultivation in Soviet Central Asia and Trans- caucasia,. the total area, sown to cotton exceeding the pre-war acre- by one-third last year, purchases cotton in this country for the U. §. ‘R. have shown. no abatement, industry in this country. Large quan- tities of semi-manufactured prod- ucts, such as chemicals, tin plate and abrasives are imported by the Soviet Union from the United States. By far the most rovid growth, among the various groups of com- modities purchased in the United States for the Soviet Union, has been shown by machinery and ap- paratus, including industrial ma- chinery, agricultural implements, automotive equipment, transporta- tion and electrical machinery. Last year approximately one-third of the | total orders placed in the United) States were for manufactured prod- ucts. Only small quantities of con- sumers’ goods are being imported from the United States, in accord- ance with the general Soviet foreign trade policy of reducing imports of products of individual consumption to a minimum. Whatever products of consumption are purchcased in the United States are directed prin- cipally to Kamchatka and other dis- tant points on the Pacific coast, which have inadequate facilities for | communication with the more de-| veloped sections of the Soviet) Union. | Purchases of industrial machinery | by the Amtorg Trading Corpora- tion alone, which amounted to $2,-| 500,000 two years ago, exceeded) $11,000,000 last year and amounted | to $9,160,000 for the six months} ending March 31, 1929, There are| dozens of Soviet industries which, through the medium of the Amtorg Trading Corporation, enter the American market every year to make purchases of machinery. American equipment is to be found| in all parts of the Soviet Union; in the Ukraine where the Dnieper pow- er plant, to have a capacity of 800,- 000 horsepower, is being constructed; in power stations and machine- building plants in the Leningrad district; in the Baku and Grozny oil industries; in the Siberian gold- fields; on the Turkestan-Siberian railway construction; in radio broad- casting stations; in canneries near Vladivostok on the Pacific coast; in the coal mines of the Donetz Basin in Siberia and the Podmoskovny Basin near Moscow. American cal- culating machinery and other office equipment will be found in the Cen- tral Statistical Administration and other offices in Moscow, as well as in a large number of provincial cities. Hundreds of Soviet factories are now using American machinery, where there were only dozens five or six years ago. The industrialization of the U. S. S R. on an extensive scale is only in its embryonic stage.

DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1929 HE Polbureau is desirous of securing the broadest pos- sible Enlightenment Campaign on the Comintern Ad- dress and the immediate Party tasks outlined therein. All Party members and particularily the comrades active in the workshops in the basic industries are invited to write their £3} Enlightenment Campaign on the Comintern Address to the Communist Party | ‘acti ory Nuclei ial deai- are Na- w York opinions for the Party Press.

The Address of the CI to our membership is a decisive blow against the unprincipled factionalism that has been rampant in our Party almost since the beginning of its existence, But the Address is more than that; the Address gives the Party not only an instrument for cleansing itself from unprincipled factionalism with all its methods of rotten machina- tions and petty-bourgeois politiciandom, «it furnishes together with the Open Letter to our Sixth Party for revolutionary mass-activity of our Party, gives us a political line— based upon the very important decisions of the Sixth World Congress— which enables us to successfully fight agains, the Right danger in our Party. Only thru a direct and energetic struggle against this Right Convention, a real, solid political basis danger, which is no abstraction in our Party, but especially shows itself in the “new opposition” under the leadership of Comrades Lovestone, Gitlow, Wolfe and others, can our Party succeed in the hard task of Bolsheyization. The methods used and the impermissible group-policy followed by both Minority and Majority leaders at our Sixth Party Con- vention threw our Party into a much graver crisis than ever before. But already then it was said clearly that our Party is a Comintern Party, and especially the reaction of our membership after the publication of the CI Address has shown that this is true, more true than what such group- leaders as Lovestone, Bittelman, Gitlow, et al., ever imagined. The Com- munist International has been working for 10 years, and has won such a complete and tremendous confidence even among the American work- ers, that no maneuvers, no rotten diplomacy, even if disguised under the mask of “loyalty” to the CI will be able to bring the rank and/ file, the proletarian membership of our Party to vacillation, hesitation or to follow a treacherous policy of opportunists and conciliators. The Com- intern is firmly entrenched in the very heart of the American working class. But in spite of this undeniable fact the past of our Party “still weighs upon its present.” The permanent factional strife made it im- possible for our Party to avoid the mistakes of the Sixth Party Conven- tion, made it very hard for the Rarty at once correctly to understand and realize the meaning of the open Address to our membership. The first step was taken thru the acceptance and endorsement of the Address by the Central Committee, and that was a big step forward away from the rotten methods of the Sixth Convention. It was the beginning of that necessary process, which so far successfully was continued thru the manifesto of the Polburo and by the article of Comrade Bedacht, which article for the first time in the history of our Party broke down the tradition of factional refusal to conduct a thorough and healthy self- criticism. It is a hard task to break with our own past, but we have already started energetically on that way. The reaction of the membership to the Address of the CI was very quick. The Address was accepted with “relief” by the members. It is ‘Majority delegates in a hotel, as in an “armed camp’ | claims as of no use trying to conceal from ourselves that some elements among} our members have an aversion against thrashing out differences openly, because of petty bourgeois reasons; but the proletarian rank and filers) \have for years seen the unprincipledness in our factional fight, they have seen how it hampers the growth of the Party, and they reacted at once to the Address in a healthy Communist manner, because of revo- It was said e. g. by one proletarian member: “We de not need any interpreters of this Address, every worker will under- stand it, there is no point that needs an explanation.” This was a reac- tion against the usual methods of factional distortion that always fol- lowed the receipt of letters from the CI. lutionary reasons. The membership is tired of such “interpretations,” and the Address is so clearly formulated that | | no such misinformation is possible. From everywhere we hear reports about how the membership accepts the Address in a fine Communist spirit. From one place it is reported from a membership meeting discu: ing the CI Address, that the opinion of the rank and filers was: “Our leaders (Lovestone, Gitlow, etc.) have tried to fool us, but the CI Address stopped that game,” “we must keep an eye on our leaders,” every split- ting policy was strongly condemned, they demanded to know “what hap- pened there” at the Sixth Party Convention, wher the CI was forced to send such an Address to the membership. This shows that the membership is alert and wide awake to the mistakes and errors and demand a thorough self-criticism, which is the best means thru which the former dualism between leadership and mem- bership in our Party can be liquidated. This dualism was very severely criticized by the organizational theses of the Third World Congress of | the CI: “Centralization should not merely exist on paper, but be actually carried out, and this is possible of achievement only when the members at large will feel this central authority as a fundamentally efficient in- strument in their common activity and struggle. Otherwise it will appear’ The Address to the messes as a bureaucracy wi stringent discipline. Anarchism is the opposite pole of bureaucracy. Our leadership has already seen this danger, and the Address has helped our Polburo correctly to estimate the situation, and the Mani- festo of the Party central applies strongly a healthy proletarian self- criticism which will arise confidence from the side of the membership. Our membership has been and is for the CI line; in fact that was the only reason why the Majority won such an overwhelming victory at the Party elections of delegates to our Sixth Convention, because at that time the Majority under the leadership of Lovestone and Pepper “un- flinchingly” supported the CI line “against all and every sort of reserva- tions.” The Polburo manifesto corr declares that the Party is united in its determination to defend its political line and the CI Address against any and all attacks from such unprincipled and opportunistically inclined leaders Comrades Lovestone, Gitlow, Wolfe and their eventual followers 1 for years the leadership of Com- etimes seemed to be based not pon clever and cunning maneuver- The writer of this article follc rade Lovestone, even if his metho so much upon Bolshevik principle as ing. That was my great mistake. Hspecially was I impressed by his “great” speech at Feb, Plenum, 1928, when he for the first time ap- peared. in his clever role as a “non-factionalist,” and not before the caucus meetings a few days prior to the opening of the Party’s Sixth Conven- tion, did his real character as an unprincipled eclectic, playing for per- manent leadership of our Party and following a Right wing line appear clearly to me. It was during this illegal caucusing that he played the game of inviting the representatives of the CI, instructing beforehand the delegates to fight against the organizational proposals of the Cl, he himself acting as a supporter of them, purporting to quell the “spon- taneous” “rebellion” of his delegates against them. i That was followed by hostile “hounding” against the representatives, by entrenching the with appointed “captains” for political drilling of the delegat st the line of the Cl. How far the factional discipline had worked f into the minds of our comrades could be seen from the fact that only one vote was cast in the caucus against such despicable methods in our Party. And still today it scems that Comrade Miller cannot understand that there is anything wrong in a method that formally accepts a line and pr, tically fights the same line thru intrigt ters, ete. Th rudiments of bourgeois politiciandom ed in our P. which is a Party of proletarian politics. Comrade Lovestone developed a very high skill—he is maybe the most capable facti ler that there has ever been ide the x: of the CI, and just because theref i able a Party leader—in irying to deceive the Revs of the C line that he started at these caucus meetings he continued all thru the convent deceiving the con- vention delegates (majority) with the cxeeption of cnly a few, with such The Reps have no standi n the CI, they will be repudiated over there, and we will win our case thru being steadfast in our rejecting the organizational proposals of the CI. This was further elaborated upon by the factional cry: CI hands the Party over to the minority, a direct lie, and all the special lawyer-talents of Lovestone and Pepper were employed for whipping the delegates in line. Comrades Lovestone, Gitlow, Wolfe, etc., have now gone still fur- ther, threatening to split our Party, already taken organizational steps to that end, objectively supporting the right wing opposition in the CI and in the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, refusing to follow the decisions of the CI, onenly declaring that they are ready to fight against the CI (Gitlow), etc. Such things cannot and will not be tolerated in our Party. Both membership and leadership has clearly let this be understood. We have no illusions. The fight started against the CI by openly right elements in our Party cannot be liquidated by formal acceptance of the Address. Formal discipline is not enough, the Party demands political discipline based upon Communist understanding. Otherwise the right elements in our Party, under the covcr of formal acceptance will go on mobilizing forces against the Par inst the CI. This danger is obvious, and the Party must be to fight against this concealed s can be still more dangerous i opposition, which under certain condi than open opposition. as Comrades Lovestone, Gitlow and Wolfe, who have Je against the CI on the basis of a right wing opposition, | ye Such lead started a stru: are not the best leaders of our Party.

Our leadership has accepted the CI Address in a direct fight against the line of Lovestone & Co.

The Address of the Communist International to the membership of our Party, and the recent developments in the Party, give me the oppor- | tunity as a rank and file member of our Party to say a few words| concerning the situation. | can win the broad masses of the working class for our Party. Evn if they | lack a broad theoretical understanding snd political knowledge, never-| theless they will be a thousand times better than politicians and oppor- tunists who have succeeded to rule the Party till now. Proletarian ele-| ments must help the leadership to guard the Party from either “right” or “left” deviations and to secure the confidence of the membership to I also want to state that I fully agree with the Address and will) the every-day struggles and practical life of our Party and insure its carry out the decisions of the Comintern. The fact that- some of cur leading comrades are trying to perpetuate the factional fight (Love-| stone, Gitlow), contrary to the decisions of the Communist International, | is an indication that there exist in our Party elements who intend to carry on the disease of factionalism and also intend to form an opposi- tion to the Communist International. In spite of the instructions of the) E. C. C. I., Comrade Miller, taking advantage of his position, attempted | | to renew the factional struggle in the Party. This should be seriously | growth. The factional game which lasted until now and began since the for- mation of our Party, has finally come to an end—at least it has begun to come to an end. The Communist International is determined to put an end to it by appealing to the membership, since the membership is the cne who suffers from this unprincipled fight. The membership is sick and tired of this and wants to put an end to factionalism. The proof of this is the way in whick the membership greeted the decisions of the) considered by the membership and the splitting policies and anti-Com- Comintern. munist activities should be fought against. When Comrades Lovestone and Gitlow stated before the C. I. that | a stage where our stand and decisions are necessary to save the Party. | Comrades Rank and Filers! The situation in our Party has reached they “were unable to assume responsibility before the membership for Our Party is in a critical situation, because of the splitting tactics of the execution of the Address” and that “the address will create chaos, in the Party,” they have entirely excluded from consideration the mem- | bership. We are assured that when these comrades come and attempt. to carry on the same fight, no honest proletarian will follow them. The. situation has reached a stage where the comrades have been compelled | to show their right color. They have become the pivot of an opposition | against the Communist International. The Comintern pointed out time and time again the necessity of | proletarianizing the leadership of our Party. Now more than ever the} correctness of the C. I. has been shown. Now more than ever before we must draw into Party, leadership proletarian elements who are honest and sincere to the movement, and capable to fight for the interests of the masses. They know that through practical work and activities we Lovestone, Gitlow and Wolfe and requires our immediate action, Our Party is at the turning point and all the opportunists and right wingers are getting ready to split the Party. The danger has already crystallized itself. This danger must awake the revolutionary consciousness of every member and must make him struggle against it. Merely acceptance of tle C. i. decisions is not enough. There are elements. who in spite of | their verbal acceptance of the ‘ecisions, still carry un the fight secretly. This must be foug!t against. It is our revolutionary duty to éxpose any ene who does not submit unconditionally to our World Party. Forward to a unifying Party! On with the work for building a mass Communist Party.
