Price 3 Cents The Convention Is For the Struggle __, The Second National Cohvention of the National Textile Workers’ Union, just come to its close at Paterson, N. J., will be recognized as , one of the most united, vital and hopeful conventions ever held. It was a convention of rank and filers, of workers directly from the mills. Most of them had never taken part in such deliberations before. The delegates represented all races and a dozen nationalities. Coming straight from the unorganized masses in the mills, many of them found that their experiences were the same, their problems strik- ingly similar, Their decisions about what ought to be done next were practically unanimous. 3 All told the same general story, varying only in details, of in- creased extortion by the bosses, and of rationalization (speed-up, wage cuts, unemployment), All agreed that the way out was organization and struggle. They repudiated overwhelmingly, so completely that it hardly made a ripple in the convention proceedings, the very few representatives of the Lovestone anti-labor anti-struggle group that appeared. The Cannon- Trotsky renegades have so long divorced themselves from mass strug- gle that they were not in evidence at all, whereas the Lovestone rene- gades could show nothing but the shreds of their past connections with the Party they betrayed. None of the workers for a moment thought of combining with the A. F. L. fake progressives, the Muste group. These textile workers already know that gang; it runs the United Textile Workers, which has betrayed them too often. And of course, the A. F. L, leadership was out of the question, A rank and file convention, a convention of real workers, a con- vention of struggle, had, naturally a very high respect. for the Com- munist Party and the Red International of Labor Unions! These work- ers have watched the Communists lead the vanguard of every battle they have been in during the last year, and stale arguments so much relied on by the bosses, arguments of chauvinism, of race prejudice, of religion, of conservatism and patriotism in genefal, just didn’t take with them. Lenin’s picture looked down on the great gathering, and Communists already tried under fire of the class struggle were elected to high positions in the union, unanimously. The entire convention gave the lie to pessimists and hesitators. It showed a most exploited section of the American working class, seeing clearly, violating ruthlessly all enslaving princjples they had been taught, judging by results, and planning intelligent and cour- ageous class struggle against their exploiters. With this’ convention as a tremendous inspiring force, with over 200 delegates returning to their fellow workers who sent them, to set the whole mass in motion, great things will be accomplished before another convention meets. There is no denying the will to struggle, and the ability to strug- gle on the part of the textile workers. Theré is no denying their obvious need of struggle against oppression and rationalization. That these struggles will be dramatic, heroic, revolutionary in significance, also goes without saying to anyone who has seen how all forces of a a from the state to fake labor leaders, mobilize against them. Now all depends on the practical, every-day, detailed work of or- ganization, preparation and leadership. Mistakes are not fatal, for there is here a great living movement that renews itself from within, it isa working class in motion. But mistakes are extremely incon- venient, and better not made. And the greatest possible mistake, would be to sink back into relative inactivity, for the leading committees or officers to become mere routiners. This is a progressive fight, an advance that has to be fought every inch,of the way, calling for tire- Jessness, alertness, devotion, initiative, and undying energy, on the part of every member of the union. It deserves the interest and support eae. every worker, everywhere, and we are confident that it will get that ‘support, that its leaders will deserve such support. Organize the unorganized textile workers! Break the hold of the betrayors of labor, and build the workers’ swn revolutionary union! Karolyi’s American Tour Te quegtion of Karolyi’s entrance to America needs a certain critical review. Such a question as for instance how it got into the capi- talist press, that Karolyi will be the speaker of the meeting under the auspices of the social-fascist Rand Schoo]? The “Anti-Horthy League,” an anti-fascist organization, gave out the following information to the working class press: 1. Karolyi made it clear weeks ago that he would appear as a speaker at every mass meeting of the Anti-Horthy League. 2. December 17th, Hugo Gellert, president of the League, re- ed the following cable from him: *Accept invitation conditionally if yO gan agree with Feakins.” (Feakins Agency is in charge of his tour, with the exception of the mass meetings of the Hungarian * workers.) 8. December 18th, the League received from him the following answer on the question, whether he knew of the meeting prepared by the Rand School, “Have not been asked by Rand School in principle. Willing to talk any Hungarian meeting opposed to Horthy even though. they don’t agree with me.” 4, To the Anti-Horthy League’s demand that he cancel the Rand School meeting, the following cable was received on December 20th: “Impossible to understand and contra orders from here. Havepmade contract with Feakins, cannot cancel arrangements made by him. Let- ter follows: These cables alone give the lie to the rotten Hungarian social- fascist pf the Goendor type, according to whom the Hungarian anti- fascist organization arranged meetings without Karolyi’s knowledge or consent. But the question by. now is: If Karolyi is not going to clear himself in the Rand School matter, cafl the anti-fascists who stand on the basis of the proletarian class struggle against fascism and sovial-fascism accept Karolyi as their speaker! Even if the agency arranged Karolyi’s appearance as a speaker at the social-fascist meeting without his know]edge, the question remains, whether the “holiness” of a capitalist contract will be sufficiently strong, to make him appear and speak at the meeting of the most rotten social-fascists, a meeting the chairman of which is Rev. Nor- man Thomas, the most deadly enemy of the American working class? The declaration of Karolyi, that he is “in principle willing to talk at any Hungarian meeting opposed to Horthy’ means that he is will- ing to speak even on the platform of the social-democrats if they “op- pose” Horthy, even though they “oppose” Horthy in words alone and ® in practice they are the staunchest supporters of the white terror and fascism?: In this case Karolyi’s place is at their meetings and he has no place at anti-fascist meetings. _ Another question which is connected with the first one and needs rlieciaaepal is the question of the permit of his entry to the United 8. The social-fascist papers hail Karolyi’s admittance as the “demo- cratization” of the American government. They use this opportunity Poison the minds af the workers, to spread false, refgrmist illusions among the masses, fact is just the opposite to what the social-fascists give re- garding the action ofthe State Department. *The American govern- ment today is not ruling any more with the method’ of “pure” bour- geois democracy, but with the methods which are a mixture of fascism and bourgeois democracy. The more ruthlessly the American ruling class employs the methods of fascist oppression®the more the use of the terror against the working class is being increased, the more they try to save the semblance of “democracy” with the use of cheap gestures, Hoover's fascist Economic Council, rationalization, speed-up drive, mass prosecutions for “sedition,” the ever-increasing persecu- tion of the Communist Party, and on the other hand the cheap gesture like the admittance of Karolyi. . Of course there may be another side to the admittance. At the time when American imperialism is cooperating with its British rival in preparing the counter-revolutionary war against the Soviet Unien with the only disagreement on this point the question of the leadersh of this attack—we see that these two imperialist powers are prepar- ! ‘ war for world hegemony.

Will R. Wood, chairman of the na- tional republican congressional com- mittee, is trying to white-wash Hoover’s implicafion in the sugar lobby graft ring. Trying to explain Hoover’s shyness in the face of a bombardment of criticism and ex- posure, Wood says “The president has no defense against these unfortunate incidents, except to close the doors to all comers and become a political re- cluse.” “These unfortunate incidents,” is the exposure of documents showing the president's aid to the lobby grafters. Wood does not deny that the sugar imperialists and their grafting crew had an open door to |the presidential chambers, and that |Hoover used his legal and illegal linfluenée in pressing *the demands | lof the sugar robbers.
