Mail).— The change of policy and leader- | ship in the Communist Party of Great Britain was reflected in the discussion at the Eleventh Party Congress. Harry Pollitt, one of the leading reporters, towards the end of his| report proposed to postpone the date of the appearance of the Brit- ish Party daily newspaper, but then | withdrew this suggestion as it was his own and not that of the Central Committee., The discussion which followed Pol- litt’s report dealt mainly with the mistakes of the Party leadership. The resolution presented by the ventral Committee was criticized r its lack of decisiveness, par ularly in the question of the war anger, and because it did not put forward the slogan of a revolution- ary workers’ government as the revolutionary struggle for power. |ary Session of the Executive Com: mittee of the Communist Interna. tional and of the Sixth World Con: gress of the Communist Interna- tional and particularly of the Tenth Plenum of the Communist Interna- tional will be carried ipto action in Great Britain.

At | the same time a considerable num- ber of factory workers were elected into the Central Committee for the | first time.

The analysis |of the economic situation was al- | tered in a number of important |matters and supplementary pas- sages were added.

The percentage of, un- organized workers not under the in- fluence of the trade union bureau- eracy was growing and the role of the women and young workers in the process of production was in- creasing as a result of which the situation for the Party was favor- able. One of the reasons for the weak- ness of the Party was the fact that it had failed to recognize the fascist development of the trade unions and the fact that the extension of the arbitration system by the “Labor” \line: | “Industrial activity, as indicated by operations in steel plants was lower than in either the preceeding |, month or November of last year... .

The only thing that the } the Tenth Plenary Session (of the ary workers’ government and the Executive Committee of the Com- munist International, held at Mos- cow last summer) leaves no doubt about the matter, it stresses the necessity of forming the mass basis upon which new trade unions con be formed.

Act in England for Colonials. @ Many delegates criticized sharply e work for the maintenance and extension of the Party relations with the revolutionary movement in the colonies, and the insufficient _ work for the support of this move- ment. It was pointed out that in the future the work for the support of this.struggle would have to be increased and strengthened by ac- tivity in Great Britain itself. A number of delegates urged the necessity of extending the workers defense organizations and encourag- ing their development in the pre- sent period of developing fascism in Great Britain. Amidst great enthusiasm the con- gress decided unanimously to issue the Communist daily from the 1st of January, 1930 on. The delegates demanded that the whole Party should be organized in support of the campaign for the daily and that mach Party member should be given Hhme concrete task to perform. { Oust the Right. The congress then elected the new Central, Committee of the Party in final composition with 78 against seven votes. The composition of e new Central Committee offers British workers a guarantee the new, policy as laid down in ‘lutions of the Ninth Plen- president can do, and the only thing we are persuaded he aims at doing, is to prevent men, at a time like the present, when con- fidence in the ordinary course of affairs is so deeply disturbed, from yielding to unreasoning fear and cancel orders and scale down production to such an extent as to bring trade to an almost complete standstill} thereby paralyzing all the energies of the entire popula- tion. It would be deplorable if any attempt were made, or if the president’s well-meant efforts were construed as implying a pur- pose to bolster failing enterprises or to check the tendency to a re- turn to normal in the case of over- stimulated undertakings which are as much inflated as the stock mi ket itself was before the recent collapse.” The Annalist adds to this draft of opinion of a section of the capi- talists of the futility of expecting any immediate recovery in capital- ist economy, and calls upon the capi- talists by wage cuts, and every other means to re-trench themselves, in the face of a severe economic debacle: © “It is probably expecting too much hope that a marked down- ward drift in business, the prod- uct of a great complex of influ- ences having an immense momen- tum, difficulty to measure and even difficult in many regions to trace in outline, can be wholly checked even by a co-operative effort to avoid as far as possible curtailment of business activity. For a while a group of executives may ussent to the idea that such a co-operative policy is desirable, each individual, nevertheless, finds himself confronted with a very definite and urgent money consid- eration; and in most cases his eleven or twelve years in the Illi- nois state penitentiary will be fought to the limit by the Interna- tional Labor Defense,” stated Louis Engdahl, its national secretary, yes- terday. “The LL.D. defended the Zeigler defendants against a frame up in which coal companies and the U.M. W. united to try and hang militant miners during the 1926 trial. It has never stopped fighting for them.” position compels him to be gov- erned by these conditions rather than by a consideration of the policy that might be socially de- sirable if it were practicable in each particular case.” (In plain words Hoover’s business confer- ence cannot check the business re- cession because capitalists cannot co-operate to do so, each capitalist putting his own private interests above the social interests—some- thing we've always known but which is an interesting admission from the annalist. That’s how the stock market crash reveals the strength of American capitalism!) Unemployment which now stands at least 5,000,000, in the face of these facts will grow in the next | few months by giant strides. The capitalist class as soon as it feels the pinch of the further decline will let loose a campaign of wage cut- ting on a national scale—the like of which has not been equalled before in the United States. Against this only the strongest organization of the workers under the Communist Party and the mili- tant Trade Union Unity League can put up a battle of resistance and struggle. The Communist Party is conduct- ing a big membership recruiting campaign, calling upon the class- conscious workers, especially in the basic industries—and particularly Negro workers—to join the Commu- nist Party. This is the time when the revolutionary party can and should become a mass Communist Party, speed up, unemployment, and a war danger. We are in the midst of a/ severe crisis.
