Only the Trade Union Educational League, with its policy ( of class struggle and industrial unionism is effectively organ- izing and leading these workers against the employers. The Trade Union Unity Convention in Cleveland is the great con- centration point in this work of organization and struggle. The Cleveland Convention, greeted with enthusiasm by the ! militant elements throughout the working class, will map out | a general program. It will further the work of building in- dustrial unions among the unorganized workers; it will unite all militant forces of the old and new unions into one coordin- ating center; it will organize the struggle against capitalist the same time the ( placed under arrest a z architect and a catholic priest leged to be connected with a Hun- ‘| garien organization of spies.

The Trade Union Unity Convention, with its 1,000 and more delegates, will be a rallying point for the revolutionary and progressive rank and file workers, and‘a landmark in the history of the American labor movement. How to Organize for the | Convention HE Trade Union Unity Con- vention, to be made up of del- egates from the unorganized work- ers, from the new revolutionary unions, and from the cld trade un- ions must have a real mass base in order to accomplish its purposes. To rally these force. is the present vital task of the local and national | groups of the TU 5 L and of the | new unions. These groups shall | immediately initiate active cam- | paigns* in their respective spheres | to secure delegates Trom all possi- | ble local unions endorsing the gen- | eral line of the convention. Every | local of the new revolutionary un- ions should be represented. Where trade unions refuse to send dele- gates, representatives should be | sent from the T U E L organized | minority groups. Every TU EL) group must at once develop the | maximum activity in securing un- ion delegates. But the central concentration must be upon getting representa- tion from the unorganized workers and of beginning organization work among them, The Trade Union Unity Convention will be first of all a convention of delegates from the unorganized industries. To ac- complish this two-phased task, lo- | cal T U E L conferences shall be called and the local T U E L com- | mittees shall meet immediately and | begin work for the establishment of shop committees in the most | important industries in their re- spective territories. This work must | be gone at systematically and en- | ergetically. | The most important plants in a given city must be carefully listed | and then active steps taken to hold meetings of as many as possible of | the workers employed at each one. | This plan should be applied to all the outlying industrial centers in | the respective districts. At these shop meetings the T U E L pro- gram should be discussed, definite shop committees formed, delegates elected, and plans formulated to fi- nance the delegations. Nothing short of such systematic work can suffice to make the convention a real success, In building the shop committees concentration must be made upon _the key and basic industries; steel, automobiles, rubber, electrical man- ufacturing, chemicals, railroads, meat packing, textile, etc. This is especially important as special con- ferences of the workers from each basic industry will also be held in Cleveland, The National Industrial Committees of oe TUEL ipl support these local campaigns by stimulating all their connections. The new unions should do likewise, putting on organization campaigns among the unorganized in the min- ing, needle, shoe, food and other industries, and sending delegates to the Cleveland convention; ‘The T U E L groups and committees, es- pecially the local groups, must be built at once to carry on this gen- eral work. In all this work special efforts must be made to draw Negro work- ers into the convention delegations and the shop committees. For this pw local and shop conferences of Negro workers must be organ- ized. The success of the T U EL convention will be largely measured by the extent to which it succeeds and the organization it undertakes among them. In the convention preparations Labor Unity must be given partic- ular attention. Each T U E L group, shop committee, or local un- ion must appoint a Labor Unity agent. A bundle order must go to every unit. Subscription campaigns must be conducted. Reports must be sent into the paper on all the activities carried on in preparation for the convention. In this way, La- bor Unity can become a powerful weapon in mobilizing the workers for the convention and for revolu- tionary trade union struggle. Representation to the Trade Un- ion Unity Convention is on the fol- owing basis: Representing a membership of less than 10 members — 1 delegate with voice but no vote. Representing a membership of 10 to 100 — 1 delegate. Representing a membership of 100 to 200—2 delegates. Representing a membership of 200 to 500 — 3 delegates. Representing a membership of | 600 to 1,000 — 4 delegates. For each additional thousand members, 1 additional delegate. Delegates when elected should be promptly reported to the local T U E L secret who shall list them on the blanks provided and send them in with regular weekly re- ports on the progress of the work in connection with the convention. In some cases delegates have al- ready been elected. In such cases these elections shall stand and the delegates’ names sent in to the na- tional office in the regular manner. The $10,000 Convention Fund 'O meet the enormous expenses of the T U E L convention will require a large sum of money, at least $10,000. The local TU EL groups must immediately take ac- tively in hand ‘the work of raising this amount. This ean be done by developing an energetic campaign to sell the special T U E L conven- tion stamps to the workers in the factories, by arranging picnics and entertainments, and by such other means as the local groups may de- vise. This campaign for funds must be started at once and pressed ener- getically if we are to finance the 1,000 and more délegates who will attend the convention. The district organizations shall be responsible for pressing this campaign forward and for the collection of funds, As per previous instructions, the dis- tricts are to retain sixty per cent of all funds collected to be used in sending the delegates. The balance, forty per cent, is to be sent to the National Office to be used in fi- nancing the national campaign. Im- mediate and substantial amounts are required by the National Office, Start the campaign at once, NOW is the time to begin a real campaign for the organization of the unorganized, The entire forces of the T U E L must be thrown into this work. Organize the un- organized workers! Form shop committees! Establish local T U E L groups! Build Labor Unity! Elect delegates to the convention! Build the $10,000 convention fund! Make the T U E L convention the greatest rank and file labor gather- ing in the history of the country!
