This tremendous rate of speed means workers are thrown out of jobs and this in- creases even more, the danger of a lay-off. Any yards worker knows that most of the jobs aren’t steady, that most of us get laid off after a@ couple of months work and that we don’t get relief during this time. We, yards workers, should de- mand especially that the govern- ment give back the orders and give us jobs; that the packers should give relief while we're out of work, with no discrimination against Ne- gro workers and youth; that there be a let-down in the terrific speed- up, thus giving us more jobs.

Worker Correspondent | HARVEY, Ill—The trial of the five C.W.A. workers took place after many delays. The state had a diffi- jeult time to get enough witnesses |to testify against these five des- |perate criminals, whose awful crime |was warming their hands at a fire |on a zero weather day. The state tried to include three known informers on the jury, but }was most unlucky because workers were being defended by one |of the brilliant I.L.D. lawyers, After the six jurors were agreed upon, the state called its witnesses. Engineer Sullivan was forced to ad- |mit that he fired the men for no reason except that he didn’t like them. The state’s case against these five honest workers was @ miniature Reichstag fire trial. It became the case of workers accusing the bosses of intimidating the workers. The cross examination of the state’s witnesses proved that the bosses were guilty, not the workers. The trial ended before the workers }could add their testimony to the | pile of humiliating evidence against the corrupt politicians. The un- leasy judge ruled a not guilty ver- dict to end the exposure of the rot- \ten conditions on the Harvey 'C.W.A. jobs.

These workers are urged to send us letters about their conditions of work, and their | struggles to organize, Please get these letters to us by Monday of each week. | “Hard to Get Anything |for My Labor,” Writes "ORGANIZATION SPELLS VICTORY By Richard Correll the | I am writing you today to let| Dadeville Farm Woman you know that I got the five copies | of the Daily Worker and sure was (By a Farmer’s Wife) glad to receive them.

Only Rank and File Struggle Is Path for Pullman Porters LONG ISLAND CITY.—The let- ter from the Pullman porter in| Sunnyside Yards which was pub-| | lished Saturday in the Daily Work- er, shows that the grievances which |this worker tells about exist only because the workers are unorgan- | ized. The vicious Pullman Porters Ben- efit Association which the company forces on us is only a legal racket |to rob us of $28 a year. To make the workers believe the lie about the P.P.B.A. being a union, the company has had some commit- | teemen elected to take up our griev- jances with the company. | The only other way we have had | was to write to Chicago. Then the company would send out an official to make a fake investigation, a few minor grievances would be adjusted, and things would then get worse all over again. | Fellow Workers: The only way we can get back our 5 per cent cut, | go back to the old way of making down beds, stop the company from laying off most of us for the sum- mer, and get regular runs, is to fight for these conditions. | There are several ways we can fight. We can sign complaints and give them to the chairman of the Grievance Committee, and we can write letters to the Chicago office. If we do this, we may get a few small gains from the company, who will figure that in that way they can keep us quiet. A better way would be for several of us to get four or five other work- ers behind each one to go in groups and present these demands to the chairman of the Grievance Com- mittee, or the superintendent him- self. This would scare the com- pany much more, since they are afraid of any organized protest by us workers and they would prob- ably be willing to make more minor concessions, Of course the best way would be for us to organize ourselves into an independent union. That is the only way we can win better conditions and keep them. Fellow Workers: It is no use for us to look for outside help. We have seen what the company has done for us. We cannot expect anything from Randolph and his fake brotherhood of Pullman porters. He has never come down to the yards and fought for us, and has never obtained a single condition for us, so the only thing left is to organize | ourselves. The best way to start a perma- nent organization is to start fight- ing for better conditions. If all the | Pullman porters in Sunnyside Yards will organize themselves into small groups of five or six men and fight for these demands, we can later on unite all of these small groups intd a strong fighting union.

R. Unity committee 799 Broadway, Room Establi: Overcome Separation of “Party Work’ from “Mass Work” By R. SALZMAN The eighth convention of the Communist Party which will take/ place on April 2 in Cleveland will} hot only have to take up and con- sider the decisions of the 13th Plenum of the Comintern, the deci- sions of our own 14th Plenum, the theses of the Central Committee of our Party, but it will also have to take up very seriously certain or- ganizational problems. The fore- most of these problems is the func- tioning of the Party base—the unit, and the functioning of the Party fraction, which is our instrument and base in the mass organizations. The eighth convention will also have to consider the mutual relations be- tween the fractions and the mass organizations. These are some of the most im- portant problems. The functioning and work of the Party are not carried out from above, are not ac- _complished by the proper directives from a few top leaders, but are de- termined and carried out by the -lower organs, by the cells of the _Party. Just as the proper func- tioning of the human organism is ‘determined by the smooth func- ‘tioning of the individual cells, so the work of the Party is determined by the work of the individual Party ‘units. I am greatly surprised that ‘the inner, fundamental organiza- .tional life of the Party has hardly “been touched upon in the discussion articles. What are the functions of a Party unit? A Party (street) unit should be the leader and guide of the mass struggles, of the mass actions in its particular territory. It must be the leader and guide of the local mass organizations which, in a gen- eral way, accept the principles of our Party. _Now the question is, is the pres- ent life of the units, is the present functioning of the Party fractions tr the mass organizations best suited to accomplish those aims? “Decidedly no! As far as we know this is not the case. Many leading Party comrades tell us that the Party unit is not the political and organizational institution that it should be; the Party fraction is as yet not the leader and guide in the mass organizations (we are not Speaking here of the leading fro-- h Correct Organ tions). Some leading comrades go even further. They charge that} | neither the unit nor the fraction knows anything about the mass or- ganizations and what is going on | there, let alone lead them; they de- clare that many units are severed |from the class struggle in the neighborhood; that inasmuch as they do participate in strikes, in picket demonstrations, in mass movements, they do so through in- dividual Party comrades (sometimes not even as Party comrades, but as “radical-minded” people), not as or- ganizations, as collective bodies. The Party fractions in the mass organization are in even a worse state of affairs. The unit is at least a continuously functioning body, meeting regularly, taking up routine Party matters, carrying out the instructions of the sections and district committees. But the pic- ture of the fraction life is far from being as rosy as that. As a matter of fact, the fractions have no life at all in most cases, they do not even exist. No matter how many times we tried to build the Party fractions (again, we are not speak- ing of the leading fractions) it all fell to the ground. And even where a fraction does exist it does not help matters much, because in nine times out of 10, it does not under- | stand its functions and does not) carry on satisfactory work, if it carries on work at all. We do not mean to say that the influence of the Party in the mass organizations is negligible. On the contrary. The non-Party leader- ship in the mass organizations, as well as the non-Party members have a@ very healthy and loyal attitude towards the Party. The Party line and policies are enthusiastically carried through. We are speaking here of the fraction which must bring the Party problems and pol- icies into the mass organizations, Why does not our Party appara- tus function properly? It would be a fallacy to say that it is because the Party members are not heart and soul working for the Party, that they do not understand the problems of the Party. Our Party today is more Bolshevized than ever before; the Party is more united than ever before in its history; our members today are on a much higher political level than ever be- fore. It is our contention that the very organizational structure of our units is not conductive towards the functions; that. not changed methods of work in the units, but also a change in their very basis. In our opinion, the fol- lowing three causes are responsible for the above results in our work: 1. The unit is simply another or- ganization in the neighborhood, in- stead of being the leader of all the mass-actions and working class or- ganizations in the neighborhood. 2. The unit is not connected with the Party fractions of the mass organ- izations and is thereby severed from the life and struggles of these mass organizations, 3. The unit, the sec- tion partly, and in some cases even the district, haven’t got the correct attitude towards mass work. The last two causes are really outgrowths of the first one. A few illustra- tions will prove this. Unit organizers explain that the Party members of the unit are too occupied in the mass organizations and, therefore, the work of the unit suffers. The units look upon the fractions in the mass organiza- tions as the sort of thing to talk and do about as little as possible. The attitude of the units to the Party leaders in the mass organiza- tions is such as would discourage anyone from doing work there, The sections and even the districts do not pay the necessary attention to the life of the fractions. If space permitted we could cite hundreds of cases in the various cities and even in New York to prove our point. What are the results from such an attitude? In the Party we have two species of Party members, dif- fering from each other in every re- spect, except, perhaps, biologically. . . . Some members are active in the Party apparatus itself, in the unit, in the section, in the district. The other part is active in the mass organizations. The Party comrade in the mass organization who could advise the unit about mass work, about broadening the work of the units, about building the Party in the mass organizations—such a comrade comes to his unit meeting as a stranger and the unit looks upon him as someone who does not “belong.” That this is an unhealthy | situation for the Party comrade in | Mass work is undoubtedly true. Pre-Convention Discussion izational Relations Betw often produces the result that he cannot connect his work in the mass organization with the Party work. | So, little by little, there develop the | special types of union functionary, I. W. O, functionary, I. L. D. func- | tionary, etc., with specific outlooks jand specific conceptions of work. The results in most cases are detri- mental for the Party leadership in the mass organizations. On the other hand we have the unit comrades who are away from mass work, mass struggles. They consider Party work as totally apart from the life and struggles of the working class. The result is a sec- | tarian approach to mass work. This condition is aggravated because through such a mechanical division of work our forces become still more weakened. We are not able to push forward new cadres, in the direct Party work, as well as in the work of the mass organizations. How can we solve this burning problem? | Our direct Party apparatus con- sists of two parts: 1, shop units; 2, street units. As far as the shop |units are concerned we can only speak of raising the political un- derstanding and level of the unit, activizing every single comrade in some specific tasks. But their work is already coordinated and relatively uncomplicated. The problems aris- ing in the shop are the problems of the shop unit. The shop unit is masses, with the mass struggles. The shop unit is, therefore, also the fraction of the shop. But only 8 per cent of our mem- bership belong to shop units! Ninety-two per cent belong to the street units. And the problems of the street unit are much more com- plex and varied. The street unit does not take up the problems of the mass organiza- tions in the neighborhood. It leaves them to the Party fractions in the mass organizations. Now, what sit- uation is thereby created? Where | we have a functioning fraction the situation is not nearly so bad. True; connection with the life of the mass | organization, with the activities of |the masses. Still the functioning enly | His severance from the Party life|fraction af '--~* hrines the Party also in the closest touch with the | even there the Party unit has no; cS | actions to the mass organizations. | But in most cases the Party frac- tion does not exist in the mass or- ganizations. And the results are very poor, not only for our Party work in the mass organization, but also for the Party unit, which should be the leader and guide of the mass actions in the neighbor- hood. and this in turn influences the entire work in that neighbor- hood. Let me give some examples: The Party was carrying on an election campaign. What should have been the role of the Party unit? Clearly, to coordinate the work of all mass organizations in that neighborhood for the election campaign. But what really happened? In a sec- tion where five or six different mass mass organizations existed five or six different election campaign committees were elected and five or six different leading fractions and five or six different instructions on the election campaign. There was no centralized leadership, there was no coordinating hand. The result was that these five or six different committees often interfered in each other's work and instead of maxi- mum results we achieved minimum results. Or let's take the campaign for social insurance and relief for the unemployed. Every mass organiza- tion received instructions from its national or city office on how to carry on this most important work. Well, what happened? At the time that the unemployed councils were carrying on with all their energies the struggles for immediate relief, the International Workers’ Order was collecting signatures on the Social Insurance Bill and vice versa. Our forces were not mobilized to strike in unison in one single direc- | tion. Why? Because there was no | central leadership, no coordinating hand. And this, in turn, is caused |by the fact that our units are sev- ered from the mass organizations and have no direct contact with them. We could give countless examples to show that in every single cam- paign that the Party has carried on jin the last few years the unit was not the leader and guide and check-up in all the various mass | organizations. It was simply an- other organization, carrying on its specific work, just as every other or- ganization was carrying on its specific activity. From the foregoing certain con- © een Units and Fractions Unit to Be Leader of Mass Organization in Its Territory clusions must be reached: 1. Each Party section should establish a leading body to carry on work in the mass organizations. 2. The re- sponsibility for carrying out the functions of the fractions in the local mass organizations should be transferred to the street units. The unit will then have to take up the problems in the mass organizations and will thereby become the leader of the struggles in the neighbor- hood. The unit will have to assign certain members to work in every mass organization and these mem- bers will be responsible directly to the units. 3. The unit should co- ordinate the work of all the mass organizations in its neighborhood on a specific issue and it will thereby be transformed into what it really should be—the higher bor leading and guiding the entire woz: in the neighborhood. I do not want to be misunder- stood. I do not propose to abolish the fractions. On the contrary. My aim is to strengthen the work of the fractions. The leading frac- tions will carry on their work as heretofore under the guidance of the Central Committee; the city fractions will carry on their work as hitherto under the guidance of the District Committee of the Party. The unit will assign certain comrades in the mass organizations for fraction work and for carrying through the Party campaigns in the mass organizations. What we aim in the foregoing proposals is to con- nect more closely the fraction work with the unit work. The leading Party comrades in the mass organ- izations will thereby become an im- portant. integral part of the Party organization, of the Party unit. When we will do that, our work will be strengthened a hundredfold and will receive new vigor and freshness. We will save a lot of en- ergy hitherto lost due to the lack of a centralizing body, we will elim- inate many bad features in our work and we will be able better and more effectively to develop the mass struggles. Space does not permit us to speak about the relations of the Party units and Party fractions to the mass organizations. We will have to leave it for another time. Hosiery Worker Criticises Failure to Expose Social-Fascists in Reading, Pa. Comrade Amter’s critical analysis , delphia, Reading and Allentown, in failing to make an effort to combat the preponderant influence of the Socialist Party leaders over the workers in Reading, was very time- ly and correct. Reading should have at this time one of the strongest and largest functioning Communist units in the state of Pennsylvania. had the Party district concentrated | their activities in Reading at the inception of the crisis. The opinion of the writer is that Reading is a fertile field at the | it time for Communist ac-| » providing the district follows | Comrade Amter’s suggestions with competent and intelligent leader- ship. Thousands of workers for sev- eral decades have embraced Social- ism in Reading as a way-out of the capitalist crisis. That the workers still support the Socialist Party is no indication that they are politi- cally undeveloped or that they re- pudiate the Communist Party. Many Socialist workers express their approval of the Communist | Party, especially since the German and Austrian debacle, disclaiming the Socialist Party’s peaceful road | to Socialism a myth. One reason | many Socialist workers still adhere | to the Socialist leaders in Reading, | is that they accept their leadership | as a lesser evil, because the local Communist unit looks insignificant compared to the large functioning Socialist Party and the Socialist Party misleaders are all function- aries in the local trade unions, and therefore, are in daily contact with the workers, and appear indispens- able. There are signs of revolt among the workers in the trade | unions against the constant betray- als and sell-out and the submerg- ence of all militancy of the workers against the bosses with no-strike agreements. The travesty of it all is now they are organizing the hos- jery workers to stage beauty and fashion shows displaying the mer- chants’ gowns and hosiery manu- facturers’ hosiery. The results are that the workers are seceding from the unions in large numbers. Being devoid of left-wing leadership, they have no other alternative. If the district of the Communist Party were alert to the situation and carried on a wide distribution of literature and other activities at the hosiery mills and | various other industries that had been on strike recently, and if it carried out uninterrupted agitation in the form of meetings and distri- bution of literature in the workers precincts and particularly the so- cialist precincts, then certainly we could gain the confidence of these workers. The holding of meetings in a downtown hall is not sufficient. The Communist message must be car- ried to the workers of Reading. Only then will the Socialist mis- leaders be put to rout. This criticism does not apply to the few comrades that are func- tioning in Reading as a Communist unit. Their work is admirable, con- sidering their limitations and the obstacles and disadvantages they must combat. Most of the Reading are unemployed, and therefore lack funds, and their ac- tivities are limited to the fight for unemployment relief. There exists in Reading no political or industrial activity of the Communist Party, leaving the workers to the mercy of the Socialist misleaders and f tell you that the Socialies leaders live in constant fear of any Com- munist activity exposing the social- fascist character of their leadership. I have been mystified this long time when I read in the Daily Worker of the historic and courageous struggles of the Communist Party in Gastonia, Ambridge, Gallup and from coast-to-coast, undaunted in the face of the worst kind of ter- ror. I am prone to think that the demagogy of the Socialist Party leaders is more deadly to the Com- munist Party functionairies of the district, than the machine guns and prison walls of the bosses.
