Whole Weight of Party Must Be Thrown Into, Work in Shops, to Win Over Best Workers in Basic Industries F. BROWN Tt is only with a full understand- ing of the Open Letter, which char- atterizes with thoroughgoing critical analysis and places with full clarity the central tasks before us, that we shall be abie to solve successfully the fundamenta! organizational problems that confront us. ‘There is no doubt that the Open Letter is a document of the utmost importance, the line of which, con- sciously applied into practice, will really enable the Party to make the hecessary turn. “Those who may claim that the Open Letter does not contain any- thing new, manifest complete con- fusion, and are in the category of those elements who will not help to parry out the Open Letter, but on {hé contrary will become a hindrance mith which the Party will have to fleal very sharply. Of course the problem of building f mess Proletarian Party, the cen- tral point of the Open Letter, and the problem of concentration rising @s a natural consequence, are not new. What is really new, however, 4 that this fundamental political and organizational problem of the Bol- thevik Party has remained with us jerely a theory echoed on occasion i magic formula for solving all oblems. What is new in the Open! uetter is, first, that it is a document m which the theory, the perspectives, ire combined with the organiza- fio measures to be taken in soly- ng” tasks set; secondly, that by \ts clarity, sharpness, and concise- tess, it raises before the Party, the tentral task to be solved. Another mportant feature in the Open Let- er and, in some respects, this is also vew in our Party, is the simplicity jad directness with which the imme- | I tasks are connected with the| yerspectives in the light of the Len- nist theory of the mass proletarian "arty, in the light of the theory of woletarian hegemony in the revolu- lonary struggle. It is the grasp of | jmeed for concentration, that spurs ‘the entire Party, composed of so many new elements, to mass activity. | What is the fundamental problem emphasized in the Opeh Letter? The problem of building a mass prole- \tarian Party. In this very concep- |tion, in these three words, is con- \tained the fundamental political and organizational task before us; the necessity of building a mass Party, |which is the problem of quantity, and the necessity of developing its proletarian character and composi- tion, the other phase of the problem, namely, that of quality. | If we analyze the composition of |the Party as it stands today, we im- |mediately see that our Party is not lyet_a mass Party; and though it is proletarian in character and compo- |sition, we cannot say that the prole- |tarlan elements from the basic in- jdustries are predominant. If this question is clear, then we must also understand the problem of \concentration as the means through which to build a mass proletarian |Party. Understanding the “why” | will teach us the “how.” It is through concentration, through throwing the whole weight of the Party into shop work, that the Party will win over the best ele- ments among the workers in the in- dustries, factories, mills, mines, that the Party will succeed in establish- ing shop nuclei and thereby linking itself with large masses of the Amer- ican proletariat at the points of pro- duction. As it now stands our shop nuclei can be counted on our fingers. This, by the way, explains our weakness at this moment in taking the lead over the numerous struggles going on against the Recovery Act, especially in the basic industries. This also explains our weakness in bringing forward the Party before the large masses in the basic industries, It explains our bringing the Party for- ward as an outsider instead of an inside organizing and fighting force, At this point, for the better un- 4s theory that brings to the con- tiousness of the Party, the urgent! derstanding of the main problem a code | National Building Trades Commit- jtee; Laundry Workers Industrial Union; Marine Workers Industrial |Union; Food Workers Industrial |Union; Metal Workers Industrial Union; Office Workers Union; |Furniture Workers Industrial Un- lion and the National Textile Work- ers Industrial Union. | If no regular meetings of any of |the above organizations are sched- uled before the dates of the two conferences, the officers of the va- rious trade unions and branches will be expected to constitute themselves | delegates, and assume the responsi- | bility for their organization’s rep- resentation at the conferences. Camp Youth Dies Under Train Wheels NEW YORK.—Unemployed for two years, John Kerr of Brooklyn seized the chance to earn a monthly $48 |for his family of five and took a job at the Bear Mountain’ Reforestation Camp. He worked for two months, but last week, waiting to be sent back to town with the other workers, he was |crushed under the wheels of an in- coming train at West Shore station. Saturday he died at the West Point | Hospital. According to onlookers, the men |were told that they could not ‘work |that day on account of the heavy downpour. When the special train, which has to take them back, pulled forward and fell under the wheels. His widow and the three small children are left penniless and with- out prospects of aid. into the station, Kerr was hustled | forge boss. It was taken to the main office and as a result the very same | afternoon the main demands of the | drop forge workers, as listed in the article, were granted by the com- pany. These were as follows: 1) Abolition of the group system. 2) Payment for setting up dies at day rates. | 8) Payment for repairing ma- chines, etc., at day rates. This shows clearly that the com- pany fears that the workers will join the militant Auto Workers struggle of the Detroit Auto Work- ers, who won strikes against the Briggs Co., the Motor Products Co., and the Hudson Motor Co., last Feb- ruary. The Auto Workers Union is now actively engaged in organizing the Nash workers and the sentiment of the workers indicates that they have had enough of the open shop tactics of Charley Nash, and intend to fight for decent wages, against speed-up, etc. |Tania Sandler, Party Member Dead, Funeral ito Be Held Today | NEW YORK.—Tania Sandler, | 87, a charter member of the Com- munist Party, and active in_the United Councils of Working Class Women in Philadelphia, where she participated in a number of gar- ment strikes, died last Sunday night in Mt.

The Home News is determined to frame-up this militant carrier. He was one of the forty active carriers fired for going on strike against the lockout of a Harlem delivery sta- tion the day after the Home News signed the NRA. Similar charges against three other leading carriers were dropped because of lack of evidence. Mandleblatt has already served 7 days in jail. pany’s plant in South Plainfield, was freed, and the conviction re- versed by the higher court follow- ing filing of habeas corpus pro- ceedings was revealed today in a renort posted on the World Telegram composing room bulletin board.

Rev Hubs, | publisher declared that it was “unfortunate” {that the advevtisement should have app2ared on the sams day as that of the lay-offs. But Huber exposed the real attitude of the boss press when he complacently declared that the ad was meant primarily for its readers, not for the workers; “To |make the public NRA conscious.” When asked whether the men laid |off would be rehired now that the newspaper professes adherence to the NRA, Huber declared that this ques- tion was “preposterous.” The chain was not a charity agency and did not contemplate hiring more workers than necessary, he said. Obviously his NRA loyalty will help him in- ;tensify the speed-up system.

Lost $150. Henry Valler, 318 East 106th St., New York City, reported at the of- fice of the Daily Worker that his wallet. containing $150 was lost at the TUUL Picnic at Pleasant Bay Park last Sunday. for a moment to take into considera- tion our final aim, the overthrow of the capitalist system and the estab- lishment of a workers’ and farmers’ government, the dictatorship of the | proletariat as a transitional period for the building of the classless so- ciety. There is the proletariat, the class composed of the productive forces of the capitalist society, product of the capitalist system, upon which has fallen the historic mission of over- throwing capitalism. And it is the Communist Party, composed of the most class conscious elements of the proletariat, rich with the experiences of the revolutionary movement, and armed with the Marxist-Leninist theory, that has the mission of raising the consciousness of the proletariat to its “hegemonic role in the revolutionary struggle and of leading the working class towards its final goal.” The Party will be able to accom- plish this task by leading the daily struggles of the workers in politi- calizing these struggles, in ostablishing itself as the only leader of the work- ing class in its struggle for the total ‘emancipation from capitalist exploit- ation. This explains the reason why we must build a. mass proletarian Party. The question now is, how to ac: complish it in practice, how to estab- lish the Party as the only leader of the working class, how to win over the large masses of workers under the influence of the Party, how to organize them, how to organize the agrarian workers side by side with the industrial workers, how to win over as allies the broad masses of the poor farmers, and how to neu- tralize the petty-bourgeois elements of the city and countryside. Such tremendous tasks cannot be accomplished at once, The first pre- requisite is the rooting of the Party in hundreds of factories, mills, mines, in the basic industries where the masses are concentrated, in daily conflict with the system that is ex- ploiting their collective work. It is in the places of work that the daily struggles are awakening the class consciousness of the masses. .s is here that we find fertile soil to craw the most conscious of them into the ranks of the Party. It is here that which confronts us, it is necessary ena must primarily develop and lead the| struggles against the capitalist sys- | tem. i Now, can we at once penetra | factories, mills and mines? Yes. We} can reach masses with our propa- ganda and agitation that will fer-| tilize the soil for organization. But the first prerequisite is to start in selected, strategic points and to de- velop a movement in these points which will spread to new places. Here we enter into the real prob- lem of concentration. To make it clearer, let us make a comparison. It is known how the Bolsheviks, led by Lenin in the early days of the! Bolshevik movement, patiently and consistently concentrated in the in- dustrial centers, such as Petrograd, Moscow, the Urals, Don Basin, Baku; how they concentrated in these cen- ters in specific factories. There the groups were formed who learned how to establish the Party as the leader in the particular mills or mines through leading the struggles of the workers for their daily demands, Politicalizing these struggles, com- bining the struggles for the demands in the factories with the struggles for better housing conditions, with muni- cipal prowlems, etc, It is from the selected places of concentration where the Bolshevik Party established it- self as the leader of the workers, that the influence of the Bolshevik Party’ spreads to new factories in the territories of concentration. It was from Petrograd, the Urals, Moscow that the influence and the Party or- ganization spread to the rest of the country. The struggles led by the Bolsheviks in these industrial cen- ters was revolutionizing the Russian toiling masses. It was from these centers that the Bolshevik propa- ganda and organization reached also the masses of the poor peasants, Looking into the history of the victorious October revolution, we can see how the proletariat of the indus- ; trial centers, where the Bolsheviks persistently concentrated for years in spite of persecution, terror, ille- gality, became the driving force in the revolution and how precisely the victorious Proletariat in these cen- ters (Petrograd, Moscow, Urals, later on in the Don Basin, Baku) closely allied with the large masses of the the vanguard of the working class! Poor peasantry, was the determining factor of the final victory over capi- adopted tional Conference of the Communist Basic Tasks for Party Members ry Bolsheviks Showed How to Concentrate to Build Up Mass Proletarian Party; Took Up Day to Day Demands talism, — Who were the numerous leaders of the fighting masses in those days, the heroes of the titanic struggle for the overthrow of capitalism, the he- roes of the many battles of the Civil War, of the reconstruction period? The Bolsheviks grew out of the ranks of the steel workers, of: the textile workers, of the miners. The vic- torious October revolution was the fruit of a clear understanding of the problem of the proletarian revolu- tion and of the dictatorship of the proletariat combined with a system- atic concentration activity for years as the practical application of the Leninist conception of the mass proletarian Party, Resolution—adopted by Section Conference, Section No. 4, District No. 8 (Chicago), Communist Party, S. As We accept fully the Open Letter as by the Extraordinary Na- Party of the U. S. A. held in New York City July 7—10, 1933, In accepting the Open Letter we realize the great significance of this Letter and we are ready to carry on the work in line with. the Open Let- ter. We pledge to make it our revyolu- tionary duty to bring about a de- cisive turn in our work in a most speedy way in view of the tremen- dously rapid development of the crisis and the growing revolutionary advance, The Open Letter asks “Why is it that the Party adopts resolutions and does not carry them out? Why is it that the Party, from top to bottom, is not working to determine the best ways .and means for establishing contacts with the most important sections of the workers, learning to overcome their prejudices,” etc. Because, says the Open Letter, “In the Party and particularly among the leading cadres there is a deep- going lack of political understand- ing.” To apply this concretely we can point to the shops in our own terri- tory, especially th ewart-Warner, where for years we have been con- centrating and can hardly show re- sults even today.’ The same can be said of our Un- employed activities, where, although we have succeeded in making some inroads, we have not understood how to build a solid base. We have been speaking of the building of block committees, but we have not suc- ceeded, and today we have less estab- lished block committees than we had six months or a year ago. ‘We write Plans of work and again, like in the case of the resolutions, as is so correctly raised in the Open Letter, we do not catry them out. ‘The lower organizations did not in- itiate United Front struggles, not knowing how to apply United Front tactics to daily local struggles. The Daily Worker, Workers’ Voice and revolutiofiary literature was in- sufficiently utilized in our daily struggles, because we did not suffi- ciently realize the power of the bourgeoisie and Social Fascists, and unifying of the workers in our cam- paigns, Complete failure can be registered in our recruiting for the months of June and July and the inability to stop the increased rate of fluctuation in our Party, because of underesti- mation of the role of the Party as a@ leader and because of our sec- tarian approach. We must renovate the Section by recruiting into the Party new ele- ments, especially from the shops, trade unions and mass organizations. We pledge ourselves that we will cut down on the tremendous turnover of Party members by improving our Section and Unit activity, by over- coming the deep gcing lack of polit- feal understanding. We pledge to develop new cadres who will be able to assume leader- ship in the Party and mass organ- izations. Forward to the carrying out of the Open Letter 100 per cent within the next six months!
