HE world revolutionary upsurge has mani fested itself with particular force in the colonial and semi-colonial countries. Along with the former centers of the colonial revolutionary movement—China, India, Indonesia, Korea, alsc the Arabian Palestine, Trans. Jordania—is akening; and ever more and more are new count like Indo-China, For- mosa, the Philip , ete. being drawn inte the movement. :Of particular s cance is the developing movement of the oppressed mass- es of Africa. During the course of the past year a series of uprisings can be recorded in the French Congo, in Kenya, Sudan, Nigeria, Madagasc s well as the strike movements In South Rhodesia, Gambia, ete., while the strike movements in the South African Union are taking on a very violent form and are of a clearly-expressed political character. Strikes and revolts do not cease also in the countries of Latin-America. Along with those countries into which imperialism had pene- trated long since, like Mexico, Argentina and Brazil, the revolt movements embrace also such countries like Colom Venezuela, Equador, Haiti, and others, which have comparatively only recently become the object of imperialist exploitation. Sharp Crisis in Colonies. The economic crisis which began in the fall of last year and which has involved the whole of the capitalist world, has, with particular force affected the economy of the colonies, ex- pressing itself first of all in the sharp de- preciation of raw materials of the colonies. wheat, Indian corn, flax, cotton, jute, silk, su- gar, tea, coffee, rubber, colored metals (copper, zinc, tin, lead, silver), the prices of which fell during the course of the last few months by 15 to 40 per cent. In result, we witness the pauperization of the peasantry, curtailment of markets, a c in industry, and in the first turn, in the weaker national industries (China, India), a tremendous growth of unemploy- ment. At the same time, the competition and pressure brought to bear by the imperialists, who are conducting a relentless fight for the curtailed colonial markets, both among them- selves and against the native bourgeoisie, are continually intensifying. In their endeavors to strengthen their competing power and to lower the costs of production, the colonial bourgeoisie are also having recourse to ration- alization methods, greater exploitation, are in- tensifying and lengthening the working day, lowering the already miserable starvation wages of the workers, and ac a whole, worsen- ing the labor conditions of the toiling masses. This inevitably leads to an extreme sharpening of class contradictions, to continuous strikes of the colonial proletariat, to uprisings, peasant revolis, the peasants being more and more forced to leave the rich plantations by the im- perialist farmers and thrust far back into the Africa, Latin America). Role of India. As far as the swing and power of the revo- lutionary movement is concerned, the primary role is played by India. Despite the fact that in this countr, there is no crystallized Commu- nist Party, the vanguard of the working class succeeded in reinforcing its position, in squeez- ing out the bourgeois and Right elements, who were formerly the leaders of the labor move- ment, and succeeded in taking over the leader- ship into their hands. The Indian workers, in a whole number of mass strikes (Bombay Calcutta, Jamshedpur, Golmuri), not only proved their splendid militancy and class soli- darity in economic struggles, but took up the relentless fight for the hegemony of the na- tional revolutionary movement. The imperial- ists, through the British Labor Government, are adapting the most brutal repressive meas- ures against the Indian toilers; the Left Wing of the native bourgeoisie are endeavoring to deceive the confidence of the Indian workers by means of Left phrases; Gandhi and his fol- lowers, speculating with the religious super- stitions, which have not yet been overcome by certain sections of the artisan workers, the town poor, and particularly by those living among the peasants, are doing their utmost to get the native masses to leave the road of struggle, and enter upon the road of “passive resistence,” that it, in actual fact, not to put up any resistence at all. However, during the course of the last few years the working class has matured and hardened in the struggle; the experiences gained in connection with the be- trayals of Gandhi and his followers in the past have not yet been forgotten by the Indian work- ers. Neither Gandhi, nor the Left National- ists, therefore, are able to get the Indian pro- letariat to leave the road of the class struggle. Wave of Revolt in China. Today, China is on the eve of a fresh revo- lutionary upsurge, which can already be evi- denced. This can be borne out by the widely extended peasant uprisings, involving practi- cally one-half of China, and bringing about the establishment of Soviet Centers in a whole number of regions. This is also borne witness te by the growth of the strike movement in the fndustrial centers (Shanghai, Tientsin, Wuhan, Tsindao), and in the basic branches of indus- try (textile, mining, and railroad). Whereas, in India the vanguard of the working class went far ahead and the peasant movement is not able to catch up to it, we have in China just the opposite phenomenon: violently and extensively has the peasant movement spread, while the vanguard of the working class is relatively lagging behind.

A New Milestone. A new milestone in the development of the revolutionary movement in the colonies are the late events in Indo-China. The brutal and ever- increasing exploitation of the country by French imperialism through the monopolist French ms and banks, through the French militat and officialdom, on the one hand, and, on the other, the influence of the revolu- tionary movement in China and India, between which Indo-China squeezed in, were the causes of the recent events in Indo-China. It began with a rather extensive strike movement last r. The miners, textile workers, elec- tricians, chauffeurs and others, were out on strike. The leadership of the strike movement was in the hands of revolutionary elements— the illegal Communist Party and the Young Workers’ Revolutionary Union. In response to the strike, the Government effected mass ar- rests. Hundreds of workers on the least sus- picion were thrown into prison and tortured. The movement, however, continued to widen in scope, embracing ever-wide extents the pour pe tion laborers, and, strange as it seemed to the imperialists, the native troops. Neither will the mass executions with which the savage French imperialists responded to the movement be capable of holding back the forward surge of the working masses. As it is the method of colonial exploitation applied in IndolChina to doom the toiling masses to gradual extinction. Most important forward moves are evidenced today in the Arabian-East. After the sup- pression of the uprising in Syria, a period of quiet set in. However, not for long. The events in Palestine, in August of last year, were the beginning of a new upsurge, but un- der quite different circumstances. It was dif- ferent from the point of view that the Feudal aristocracy and trading capital, which played the foremost role in the Syrian uprising, are now beginning to realize that their positions are becoming rather unstable, and that the proletariat is entering the movement, is be- coming active and coming to the fore. In this connection, the First Arabian Labor Congress held in Haifa (Palestine), at the beginning of this year, is very significant. The class elements were still in the minority at this Con, s, the influence of bourgeois National- ism still predominated. However, at this Con- gress speeches could be heard and resolutions carried, which showed that the more advanced strata of the Arabian proletariat is beginning to realize its class conditions and the class tasks with which it is confronted. Leadership of Proletariat. Tieshite the different forms of the econom r ‘ical conditions of the colonial and sem * ccuntries, it can be definitely said th throughout all Asiatic countries—not only ir ia and China, but also in Korea, Philippines. Indonesia, Arabia, as well as in the Latin- American countries, the proletariat, it is un- derstood to different degrees, is, however, be- ginning to play an increasingly greater, more active and independent role in the national revolutionary movement. From this point of view we have now entered upon a new phase in the movement of the colonial countries. This cannot yet be said of the African con- tinent, of such countries like Kenya or Tangan- aika, of the Congo and Nigeria. Over there we witness the first mass actions of the peas- antry led to desperation by being deprived of their lands, by forced labor and heavy taxation. But in South Africa—in the Transvaal, Cape Town, etc., where the compact masses of the Negro Industrial proletariat are concentrated, there is already a widespread movement of the Negro workers, an extencive strike move- ment, which often turns into open action di- rected against the imperialist powers. This continent is today being drawn into the whole world movement of oppressed classes and peo- ples. The reserves of the revolution are inexhaust- ible. The groundwork of imperialism and capi- talism is steadily being undermined. The role of the proletariat in this struggle is continu- ally growing. is J. T.

The letter follows: e Po x The workers know who you are! Traitors have no place in the Communist Party! I just received your letter full of lies. As you know lies don’t convince workers. The comrades of the Party know exactly what Stephens did for the Party, and recognize him as a renegade and a traitor, and not what you would like to make of him. The facts speak for themselves and prove much more. And when all these sweet praises come from you, who are no different then Stephens, co-work- ers for the same cause, that of betraying the interests of the working class, of fighting against the Communist Party, surely you "nch of irresponsible liars cannot come to and tell us who Stephens it. Stephens is the most cowardly, yellow, jelly- ish traitor I have ever known in my experi- ence in the revolutionary movement. I had no intention of answering your sland- ers, in wasting time on a bunch of good-for- nothings, but when you are talking of calling “protest meetings,” I decided it was time for me to protest and hope that all other comrades do the same. Mr, Stephens Before May Day. Mr. Stephens two weeks before May Day, sabotaged all work in the district. Letters from our section continuously demanding guidance and information regards the preparations for May First were not answered. But despite the sabotage the workers know that on May Day the streets belong to them, and demons- trated, without the help of Stephens. In New Bedford, the working class is dis- honored with another renegade Pires, who a few weeks ago authorized the use of his name in an article entitled “The Situation in New Bedford,” appcaring in the Counterrevolution- ary Age. After reading this article, myself and Comrade Alfonse Lamerus, went to his house, ond asked him whether he is aware of what he wrote, where he got his facts from, and that we would expose him before the en- tire working class in New Bedford. He ans- wered very timidly that he did not write that article. That someone in the group wrote it using his name. Once more we learned of the Lovestone group, lies, deceit, mockery and what not. Renegade \veishord. Renegade Albert Weisbord, this little Napo- leon, claims to be the “leader” of the textile workers. We workers of New Bedford did not forget the strike of 1928 which this “great” leader claims to have been ing the strike Weisbord urged the workers to parade even though the permit was not grant- ed. This “publicity hound,” did not have faith in the workers’ militancy, a coward himself, and eager to escape the police clubs did not believe that the workers would parade. But the workers did. Fifteen thousand strong. Weisbord instead of leading was in a Boston car ut the end of the lir. and later was found by a group of workers lying on a roof instead of participating in the march. After the parade the terror of the police was intensified and Weisbord was no more. Under the fac- tional protection of the renegade Bail, he went to Boston. Neither of them concerned as to what woatd happen to the workers and to the strike generally. In the Gastonfa Strike.

Notice of Central Control Commission Deci- sion on the Expulsion of Roy Stephens, Former District Organizer of Dist. 1 Boston. The Central Control Commission has ap- proved the decision of the District Bureau and District Control Commission of District 1 to expel from the Communist Party of the U. S. A. Roy Stephens as a renegade and a traitor, who secretly aligned himself with the enemies of the Comintern and of the Party, the Lovestone group,—who misused Party funds and failed to account for them,—who conspired with Lovestone and his agents to rob the Party district office of its records,—and who tried to use his position as the district organizer of District 1 to disrupt the Party organization and to sabotage its preparations for the May First demonstrations. ~ still signing himself as the district organ- izer, Stephens called a secret meeting four days before May First and tried to turn those present against the Party and against the Cominterr. But only nine had answered his call, and seven of them walked out when they saw the treachery of “tephens. The political line a ced ~y Stephens, as reported by the comrades who heard him at the secret meeting, and as admitted by Steph- ens himself before the District Bureau, was a t; ‘cal Lovestone right wing line. In the face of growing facts and develorments whic’ prove the correctness of “ie Comintern and Party line and analysis of the present period, Steph- ens stated that the workers here were not ready for a counter-offensive, that the Amer- ican Federation of Labor was not a fascist organization, that the American government was a democratic government, not a fascist government, that American capitalism was not threatened by the present economic crisis, but would recover from it in six or seven months, that the Five-Year Plan in the Soviet Union was a failure, etc. At the end of his statement Stephens called upon the members present to fight against the Party in their units and to take the politi- cal line for this fight from the Lovestone rene- gades. . ‘ It was also established that Stephens had taken records from the Party office to a hotel room, where he left them in the hands of Lovestone’s agent, Bert Miller, from whose possession the records were recovered by prompt and energetic action of the Party, after Stephens had repeatedly tried to deceive the comrades as to their whereabouts. In the light of these facts, the actions of Stephens stand forth: those of a stool-pigeon of the renegades, and, in expelling Stephens from its ranks, the Party warns all workers organizations against this renegade and trai- tor. : SENTRAL CONTROL COMMISSION COMMUNIST PARTY, U. S, A, ld aed + THE LONDON OF NEGRO By JAMES W, FORD. (Chairman, Provisional International a) — Union Committee of Negro Workers.) “| HE Trade Union and political organizations of white workers that arose scores of years ago have always suspected the Negro work- ers, betrayed them, Jim-Crowed them and | looked upon them as step-children in the prole- ; tarian famil; They take the position that | Negro workers are made by god as slaves to | be inhumanly exploited by the capitalist bosses. In this respect these reactionary trade union and political organizations of the white workers have been no different from the capi- talist bosses themselves and have assisted in the exploitation é6f the Negro toilers in one form or another. A. F. of L. Betrays Negro Workers. It is a well known fact to all Negro work- ers that the American Federation of Labor has long been a tool of the capitalist bosses | to Jim-Crow, segregate, brow-beat and pre- vent the organization of the Negro workers. Let us consider one case. The race riots in Chicago in 1919 were organized by the capi- ta. bosses, in an effort to enforce an un- official segregation of Negro workers, who were being drawn into the industries from the South, and to prevent their organization. The official bureaucrats of the A. F. L. craft unions affiliated to the Stock Yards Labor Council in Chicago, by their discrimina- tion against the Negro workers furnished the basis for agitation amongst Negroes against all unions of the white workers. This is a well known fact that has been disclosed by special investigation. Gompers, head of the A, F. L. for many years, was for these many years an arch enemy of the’ Negro workers and an agent of the capitalist bo: This history of betrayal of Negro workers by the A. F. L. lays like a slave whip upon their backs, The reformist reactionary organizations of the Amsterdam International and the socialist parties of the Second International are no different regarding the Negro toilers in Africa and the West Indies. Their methods are more subtle and deceitful and at the same time, just as brutal. The Belgium socialists founded a cotton company in the Congo and carry on a mo! ruthless exploitation of the natives than Leopold himself. M. Mathieu, a i member of the Belgium Parliament, is af the same time manager and director of an e ing company, which is supported by a The socialist members of the French ber of Deputies sanction the ruthless dering of native workers in Central Africa “The civilizing influence of French Colonial Policy in Africa.” The British “Labor” Government under the control of Ramsay MacDonald, a socialist, shoots down native women and workers in West and East Africa and carries out the policies of the exploitation of the natives the same as the capitalist parties and for the capitalist class. Exploitation Supported by Reformist Organizations. Thus the exploitation of the Negro toilers in the various parts of the world is carried on by the socialists equally as by the capi- talists themselves. The reactionary trade union organizations such as the Amsterdam Inter- national is a cloak for forced labor in Africa. The reformist and the reactionary organiza- tions of the white workers are imbued with the same spirit as the imperialists themselves. The theory of higher and lower, inferior and superior races determines the policy of the socialists and the reactionary fascist trade unions, like the A. F. L. and the Amsterdam International. At the same time the Negro toilers have been separated and isolated from each other and isolated from the honest proletarian movements of the white workers. They have had very little opportunity to take stock of this situation together. We in America have been isolated from our brothers in Africa and the West Indies and they from us, while at the same time the capitalists ride upon our backs. ePlans Made at Anti-Imperialist Congress. But the second World Congress of the iLeague Against Imperialism held at Frank- fort, Germany, in July of 1929, gave the rep- resentatives of the Negro toilers the oppor- |tunity to get together and to discuss theit [problems from a working class point of view. Delegation of Negro Masses. In this connection it’s interesting to note the composition of the Negro delegation at this congress: Mary Burroughs, American Ne- gro Labor Congress (USA); James W. Ford, International Trade Union Committee of Ne- gro Workers of the R.LL.U. (USA); John- stone Kenyatta, Kikuyu Central Association of Kenya, East Africa; Garan Kouyate, League for the Defense of the African Race, West Africa; DeKeersmaecker (white), of the Congo Colonial Commission of Belgium; An- drews (white), Trade Union Congress of South Africa; Henry Rosemond, Haitian Patriotic Union, Haiti; William Pickens, National As- sociation for the Advancement of Colored Peo- ple (USA); William Paterson, American Ne- gro.Labor Congress (USA); and M. Ali ‘(Al- gerian), Paris, France. Fraternal Representatives of Other Races. f A few of the representatives from the U. A. took the initiative in calling a small ‘trade union conference of these delegates, to discuss the problems of the Negro toilers in the various parts of the world.) In addition to the Negro delegates, frafernal representa- tives of other races and organizations in at- tendance at the Congress were invited to our meeting. These were L. Li of the All-China Federation of Labor; Sen Gupta of the In- dian National Congress; M. Burns of the Transport Workers’ Union of England; Sak- latavala of.the Indian Welfare Association of England; J. Ballam of the Trade Union Unity League of the U. S. A., and a representative of the C.T.G.U. of France. Preliminary Trade Union Conferences. We had planned to hold only one meeting but the first day’s discussioy was so exhaustive and interesting that a second meeting was held. On the first day Saklatvala spoke on the wage conditions amongst the Indian and African workers in South and East Africa. He told of how the imperialists try to use Indian workers against African workers and African workers against Indian workers, and advised a closer relation between the Indian and Afri- can workers; of East Africa, with the Indian workers’ movement in India, He also spoke CONFERENCE WORKERS of the role of the socialist parties as one of oppression of the natives in the colonies. Mary Burroughs spoke of the conditions of Negro workers in America and the role of the American Federation of Labor. Reports of Delegates. Most interesting was the report of John- ! stone Kenyatta of East Africa on conditions in East Africa. He told of how the native workers have had their land taken from them, how they are denied any educational advan- tages, how the white colonists use young na- tive girls as concubines, how the British shot down 20 defenseless natives who were making a plea for the release of one of their leaders who had been exiled. He said that there are many R. R. workers in East Africa, but that the problems of the natives was essentially a land problem. Other speakers told of conditions of Negroes in the Belgium Congo, West Africa, Haiti and the United States. J. Ballam of the Trade Union Unity League told of the program of organization outlined by the TUUL for or- ganizing Negro workers in the United States. Rebukes Lynchings in U. S. A. On the second day, J. W. Ford, chairman, outlined a program of trade union organiza- tion for Negro workers and suggested the call- ing of an International Conference of Negro workers; he also spoke of the war danger and Negro toilers, This suggestion was received with great enthusiasm by the delegates and a long discussion took place. Sakalatvala sug- gested that since a great number of Negro worker toilers are under the British Empire such a conference should be called in London, England. This suggestion was well received by all the delegates. Comrade Ali of France, however, put in a plea for Paris. But we were reminded that the French authorities had already prevented the holding of the League Congress at Paris. Many points of aid and suggestion were brought to us from our fraternal representa- tives of China and the white movements of Europe. At our second meeting Sen Kata- yama, an old Japanese trade union veteran, and at one time a resident of America, at- about lynchings America. Election of Provisional Committees The conference then decided to elect a Pre visional International Trade Union Committ of Negro workers with J. W. Ford as chair-\ man and gave him instructions to proceed with | the convening of an International Conference | of Negro workers in London, England, on July > 1st, 1930. winsseeewonntntglen Thus the organizational plans for the con- vening of this historic conference were made July 26th, 1929, at Frankfort, Germany. The Wieeastge this conference are now under full s The Negro.toilers-havé many prob- lems to discuss at this conference and an his- toric task to perform. 1. Report of the International Trade Union Committee of Negro Workers. 2. The economic struggles and tasks of the working Negroes. 3. The struggle against forced labor and poll tax, 4. The danger of war and working Negroes. These and other points will be the main points of discussion at the conference, The Provisionai International Trade Union Committee will in the next few weeks con- duct a series of nation-wide mass meetings amongst the Negro toilers for the nomination and election of Negro delegates to the Lon- don Conference of Negro workers. Build the Southern Weekly! The money for the establishment of the southern weekly is very slowly coming in to the Language Department of the Central Com- mittee. In the last two weeks the Uj Elore, the Tyomis, the Toveritar, Arbeiter, Vilnis, Ny Tid came a step forward, but still very far from their assigned quota. The Rovnost Ludu, the Radnik, Nor Ashkar, still did not respond to the drive. Up to-date only 32% per cent of the quota is fulfilled. This negligence results from the underesti- mation of the great importance of the first southern Communist paper and from the un- derestimation of the willingness of the workers to donate for the building of such a revolu- tionary organ in the South. The serious mi- take of most of our language papers must be corrected, by starting to immediately publish articles on the tremendous importance of this drive, by publishing blanks to be filled out by the readers to be sent in with the donation, to circularize the mass organizations, with a call for solidarity with the southern workers. The revolutionary immigrants, readers of our language press will help the southern workers in building up a fighting class organ, provided our language paprs will let them know in series of articles the aims of this drive. The responsibility for not getting the full quota before the First of May rests on the leading comrades of the language press who look upon this drive as “one more financial campaign.” The Party has no “pure and sim- ple” financial campaigns. All are necessary parts of our leading mass struggles, building and maintaining the organs of these struggles and especially the campaign for the establish- ment of a Communist weekly in the South has the utmost political importance. Not to respond to the drive means that those comrades do not as yet realize this. a In the coming days, when the Party will lead greater masses than ever before into the fight for the daily needs of the working class, the drive for the southern weekly must be widened, the quotas must be fulfilled by every ~ one of our language papers.
