Also more care should be |exercised in putting the pages to- gether so that they will be num- bered in consecutive order instead | of as in this issue where page 3 is \page 4 and visa versa. The cartoons in the Cat-Trax Worker hit the right spot. The comic strip entitled “Lessons in simple economics” is fine and con- veys in a simple way, the idea of |the boss robbing the worker. Some |day a collection of such good car- toons should be made into one book |to be used as a guide for all shop ting it stand, is to create a resistance to organization by feeding the fears cf some “timid souis.” In another article on “compulsory Insurance” a good exposure of the company racket is made. But like the other articles, except for the concluding sentence calling “Work- ers protest this unfair practice.” organization conclusions or direc- tives on how to fight are not in- cluded. This article states also, himself and his family that much on food, clothes, etc.” The calling for a smaller policy does not solve the worker's problem either. In proportion, he may have to pay a higher rate. As workers we would rather have a larger policy be- cause of the greater benefits when it becomes due, if we live or remain leng enough on the job to get the benefits. The issue therefore, should be that we demand that the boss pay for the policy, that in case of discharge, the worker shall not lose it, that the dividends and interest shall be paid to the worker, etc. There are six smail paragraphs struggle against the bosses. A letter from ‘ ‘Department L” complains of dirty machines that are “dripping oil and grime but the company does not provide rags for the cleaning of machines; the should be corrected.” The editors see nothing in this letter. It goes over their heads. What is the pur- pose of letters from workers? Is it mereiy to give the men a chance to “blow off steam,” or to give us cellent around which to organize a good, short and successful campaign with a department committee from the ranks to see to it that this im- pertant yet small, practical and realizable demand is won. Almost any shop furnishes washed | wiping rags. Further, a fifteen- period (on company time) before the whistle blows should also be demanded to give the workers an opportunity to clean the machines toward the end of the working day. This also is often granted the men in many shops. Our comrades should be on the lookout for such splendid opportunities to raise is- labor at hand making it easy to bulldoze the men and keep down wages and kill all union talk among the workers by laying off the most militant men.” The conditions complained of are accurately stated. But what is rong here is that the Cat-Trax Worker falls into the error of act- ing (because of lack of political understanding) precisely as the local Chamber of Commerce would spend in the local enterprises, etc. Yet these same businessmen not only spend their money out of town, they also advertise for out of town help, as the article correctly states. We must get away from this backward, narrow, purely local in- terest which is deliberately culti- vated by the bourgeois and their “labor lieutenants,” the labor takers. We must foster class consciousness and class solidarity above all. We can’t afford to split the workers on issues of local vs. outiside workers or on capavle vs. incapable workers.
