With the plans taking final shape the United Front Conference m Albany, on Feb. 25, 26th and 27th, initiated by the A-F.L. Trade Union Committee for Unemployment In- surance, the maneuvers of Irving Steingut, Democratic leader of the State Assembly, cannot be over- looked. Steingut, who takes orders from John H. McCovey, the Brook~- lyn Democratic tyrant, has a pro- posal designed to trick the workers and suppress the movement for un- employment insurance. | Steingut calls his plan “Unemploy-| ment Insurance,” but he is as far from the truth as the two poles. Un-| der Steingut’s plan, which was intro- duced at the last session of the Leg- islature, the State would contribute not a penny to the workers’ fund. The employers would donate two per cent of the total payrolls. (This would offer the bosses an excellent chance to further slash wages). The legis- at least three years.

In Sept., 1919, he launched a drive for $50,000 to build a club house from which propaganda was to be issued against the “Reds.” For this project, Stein- ¢sut had the active support of 200 » business men in lower Manhattan. ¢ In February, 1930, Steingut engin- feered the crooked deal with the Re- publican leaders in the Legislature which created 12 new judgeships for the Brooklyn and Long Island dis- tricts. For these judgeships, the State will pay in the next few years sums exacted from the pockets of the workers amounting to millions of dol- jars.

A. HATHAWAY preliminary conference held last Sunday in New York City at the call of the American Federation of Labor Committee for Unemployment Insurance and Relief, provides a firm foundation for the state-wide confer- ence on workers’. legislation to be hi t Albany for February , 26 The Communist Par which first urged the calling of such a unity conference, was officially represented, and fully supports this effort of the representatives of more than seventy zations to unite all sestions of the working class in a struggle for its burning needs. Energetic Drive Necessary It is now necessary to rally all of the forces represented in Sunday's conference, as well as the organiza- tions which they represent, in a most energetic drive to make the Albany conference the largest and most resentative gathering ever held by the workers of New York State. ‘This can be done if demands such as the following are clearly formulated and brought to the attention of the masses of workers, organized and un- organized—members of the A. F. of L., of the T. U. U. L., Socialist, Com- munist and non-Party workers: 1.—The immediate appropriation of adequate relief funds sufficient to provide for every unemployed and part-time worker. (The conference should agree on the definite amounts and on proposals to force the rich to bear the burden for the relief.) 2.—Unemployment insurance at the expense of the state and the em- ployers. \ 3.—Immediate suspension of the eviction law in its application te un- employed and part-time workers. 4.—The shorter work-day without | reduction in pay. | 5.—A legislative enactment prohib- | iting the use of injunctions in labér disputes. 6.—The maintenance of trade union } wages and working conditions on all public works, city and state. 7.—No discrimination in the pay- ment of relief, or in handing out jobs, against Negroes, single workers, youth or foreign-born workers. These simple demands, as well as the giving of full attention to the innumerable secondary and special craft demands of the workers, can be made the basis for the broadest mass movement, a movement con- fined not merely to the legiélative halis in Albany, but one that will LECTURE by Fred Biedenkapp tonight at 8 at East Side Workers Club, 165 East Broadway.

Committee, this movement must be developed on the broadest united front basis. Workers, organized and unorganized, of every political and Teligious opinion, A. F.. of L. workers, Communist workers, Socialist workers, non-Party workers, must be drawn | into the conference. It is necessary, however, for the| success of this movement, to guard | catefully against the activities of those elements who, under the guise of “greater unity,” actually attempt | to destroy the growing unity of the| masses. Such elements inevitably come forward at a time like the pres- ent in an effort to stop the growing | consolidation of the masses for strug- gle under revolutionary leadership. They attempt, with radical phrases, to throw up a smoke screen before | the eyes of the masses, who are be- ginning to see the Communist Party as the only effective leader in the | struggle for unemployment relief and insurance, and for the other urgent | needs of the workers, They attempt | to direct the distontent of the masses | into reformist channels. Disruptive Elements Such elements were represented in| last Sunday's conference by a hand- | ful of delegates. Significantly, any | one of the local unions represented had a greater actual membership than had the organizations which | I refer to the three so-called “Communist” Opposition Groups (truly in opposi- tion te Communism!) headed by Lovestone, Cannon and Weisbord. These three groups, with a member- ship ranging from Weisbord and his wife, in the so-called “Communist League of Struggle,” to a couple of dozen in Cannon's and Lovestone’s outfits, smuggled in a total of 12 or 15 delegates, even after as many more had correctly been denied seats in the conference, These groups, expelled from the Communist Party, but still posing as “Communists” in an effort to de- moralize the ranks of the most ad- vanced workers, came to the confer- ence with the sole object of pre- venting the struggle for unemploy- ment relief and insurance from be- coming a broad mass movement under the leadership of the Communist Party, which alone can win victories for the workers. This is shown by their concrete proposals at the con- ference. First, consider the speech of Can- non and the documents presented by his group. With a line of demagogy worthy of a Rooevelt, Cannon talked freely of “greater unity,” “a broader united front” and even of “struggle,” but the object of these high-sounding phrases was merely to prevent the conference from proceeding with its work. Cannon's intentions were dis- closed by the document his supporters distributed before the conference opened. Without any knowledge of what the composition of the confer- ence would be, they were already pre-~ pared in advance to make the follow- ing declaration: “The representation at this con- ference is insufficient for a really effective campaign for our (shall we say, Cannon’s!—C. A. H.) de- mands ... , therefore this confer- ence goes on record to issue a call for a second conference within two week's time.” (my emphasis C. A. H) Cannon’s Sabotage | In other words, Cannon proposed to prevent Sunday’s conference from | issuing the call for the state-wide | His group, to- gether with Lifschitz, the Lovestone- ite, and Weisbord, were the only ones in the conference with such a pro- posal, Ostensibly, their proposal was only for a delay of two weeks for the purpose of achieviing “broader unity,” but as we shall see, the pro- posed two weeks’ delay was only to give them time for further destruc- tive maneuvers against the confer- ence. ‘Their real purpose fs shown up by | the speech of Lifschitz. His was a very “revolutionary” speech, in which, while talking of a “wider united front,” he denounced tHe Socialist Party. And vertainly, no class con- scious worker can offer any apologies | for the Socialist Party or its leader- ship—Thomas and Hillquit. But the speech of Lifschitz was not against the leaders of the Socialist Purty, as we shall see. It was a speech directed | against the rank and file Socialist Party workers representing the Hunt- | ington branch of the S. P. and branches of the Workmen ’s Circle. It was an effort to drive these workers out of the conference as a further step in their futile efforts to demoral- ize the conference. Lifschitz did not approach these workers of the Socialist Party as did the Communist Party spokesmen. Our speakers approached them as honest, revolutionary workers, often misled by their leaders, but neverthe- Jess as workers who had shown their readiness to enter into a broad unity movement for unemployment relief and insurance, and other pressing demands of the workers. In the course of the struggle for these de- mands, the Communists knew that these workers would come to see the reactionary role of their leaders, and would join hands completely with the revolutionary workers. In sharv distinction to the Commu- nist spokesmen, Lifschitz failed to LECTURE WILLIAM F.

ALL PROCEEDS FOR THE DAILY WORKER ist leader, Norman Thomas, who over the vicious block-aid scheme, designed to make the workers bear the burden of maintaining the un- employed. He ignored the anti-work- ing class policies of the Socialist Party leaders in Milwaukee and Reading, and the growing revolt of the rank and file workers of the So- cialist Party against these policies. Lifschitz, with the support of Cannon and Weisbord, quite consciously avoided this necessary differentiation between “Socialist” leaders and So- cialist workers, only because he wanted to drive these workers from | the conference, and bring the “So- cialist” leaders into the conference as the means of destroying the effective- ness of the whole movement. Opposed to Unity These renegades from Communism did not want to see a broad unity of the masses from below. On the con- trary, they wanted unity with the very leaders whom they pretended to condemn. They wanted to prevent the masses from turning to Commu- | nist ladership by bringing them again under the leadership of the Thomases, Hillquits and Greens. Just as the| Lovestoneites, a few weeks ago, united | with the reactionary and corrupt Socialist-Tammany bufeaucracy of the I. L. G. W. U. in a futile attempt | to defeat the revolutionary workers | of that organization, so in Sunday's conference, Lifshitz, Cannon and Weisbord were anxious to bring the workers under the same kind of reac- | tionary leadership. t In Cannon's resolution previously ! referred to, the one proposing the “two weeks’ delay,” we find the fol- lowing, which clearly discloses their desires: “The respective central organiza- tions of the Communist Party, the A. F. of L., the Socialist Party, and the independent trade unions, shall be directly invited to participate.” In Cannon's sheeet, the Militant, of January 21, their complete reliance on the reactionary leaders is put even more bluntly. In an editorial deal- ing with Sunday's conference, written by Cannon himsellf, we find the fol- lowing gem: “The branches of the Socialist Party and the local A. F. of L. unions are invited to the united front—but what of the central bodies of these organizations? What of the leaders? (Emphasis in the original—C. A, H.) In other words, the reason for the proposed delay was to bring in the central organizations of the A. F. of L. and the S. P. The central organi- zations of the Communist Party and the independent trade unions were already represented. All other bodies, including the A. F. of L., and 8S. P. central bodies, could have been rep- resented in the conference if they had wished to join the struggle. The call for the conference had been issued publicly. The renegade groups had had no difficulty in being rep- resented. The central bodies of the A. F. of L. and the 8. P. were not present, not because they were un- aware of the conference, but because the ydid not wish to enter into the Concert & Dance Sat., January 28, 1933 Downtown Workers Club ll Clinton St. N.
