Drive Opened e Organizations Seek 90,000 Signatures Under Initiative Law Petition Would Force Legislative Hearing and State Referendum If March To Back Up Demand SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. zations here have initiated a natures to a petition to the state legislature which will place the Workers’ Unemployment order of business when the legislature convenes on Jan. 15. The workers, under the state in-¢- : - — Mass itiative law, have until Jan. 4 to collect the required signatures. The Workers’ Bill will then go before the state legislature on Jan. 15.| Should it be defeated by that body, | the Workers’ Bill will then go on the ballot at the next general elec- tion for referendum yote. The Workers’ Bill, which is be- ing used as the central slogan in} the election campaign of the Com- munist Party here, and for the en- actmeht of which the unemployed workers are preparing a state-wide hunger march to the state capitol, has been drafted the same as the Federal Workers Unemployment In- surance Bill, introduced into Con- gress at the last session under House Resolution 7598. Added to the State Workers’ Bill, however, is a clause stating that the State Workers’ Bill shall be in effect un- til the enactment of the Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill by Congress and Senate on a national scale, Hudson Co.

Girds nor Biggest Effort Campaign Concentration Points Chosen for Workers’ Can- didates—Brodsky Plans 150 Meetings Each Day, Mass Literature Distribution NEW YORK.—Plans for the current election campaign on a scale unprecedented in this city were outlined yester- day by Carl Brodsky, the Communist Party’s State campaign manager. Thousands of open air meetings, literature, sound films of leading candidates, open-air puppet shows and short agitational plays will be part of the effort of the Communist Party to turn the elections into a struggle for the imn te needs of the workers, Brodsky said. The Communist Party here, as in other parts of the country, will pur= sue @ policy of concentration in neighborhoods and communities where sharp working class struggles or important industries give the best for conducting truly revolutionary campaign activity and for electing candidates. The concentration districts in reater New York as outlined by Brodsky are: Congressional Dis- trict, with Clarence Hathaway as candidate. This section includes Borough Hall, the Navy Yard, and| Williamsburg with important light} industries and large groups of Negro and Latin-American population. Ben Gold, militant needle trades leader, will run as concentration candidate for Assemblyman in the ith A.D., East Bronx.

The report says that 5,000 workers took part in the balloting. There are now only about 2,000 employed in the} three Hudson plants and only em- ployed workers are permitted to vote. About a week ago the Chevrolet plant held similar compnay union elections, with the majority of the workers also laid off. A Hudson worker, who was elected a vepresentative on the company union last year, in an interview with the Daily Worker, today exposed the fraudulent characte of the elec- tions and the manner in which the company union operates. “From my experience as a repre- sentative on the Hudson Industrial Association I can say that this is an institution organized entirely for | the benefit of the company. | “During the past months wages have been systematically cut, but the company union played dead. The only time Hudson workers got anything was when they took mat- ters into their own hands, as they did at the end of March when, un- der the leadership of members of the Auto Workers Union, depart- ment stoppages in the body plant won wage increases for about 2,000 workers.” The Ford plant is shut down for this week and may remain closed next week too.

F. of L. unions are confronted with a very serious problem of basic | political significance. This problem is not new. It has been discussed on a number of occasions, but nc necessary steps to solve it in a con- crete and positive manner were taken, with the result that it be- comes more aggravated. The prob- Jem in brief is as follows: The revolutionary trade unions and opposition groups, though offi- cially participating in political struggles, nevertheless have not suc- ceeded as yet in arousing the broad | masses to the realization of the im- portance of participating in all political struggles as well as in the economic battles. The result has been that in almost all major polit- ical campaigns carried through by the revolutionary movement, the many thousands of workers, mem- bers of the revolutionary unions as well as those controlled by them ideologically, were not involved. This basic weakness is the general characteristic of, and affects greatly, all the revolutionary trade unions and opposition groups. Pure and Simple Trade Unionism It would be wrong to consider the leaders of the revolutionary trade unions and oppositions pure and simple trade unionists. This phil- osophy was rejected a long time ago by all of us as a deliberate and conscious demagogic platform of the reformists, the loyal “agents of the | bourgeoisie inside the ranks of the working class.” That the economic and political struggles are urganiza- tionally combined is the ABC of the class struggle for every class-con- scious worker. Any attempt to sep- arate them means in reality to split the working class battlefront and thus destroy every chance for vic- tory. This is a long accepted axiom for all those who are engaged in the class struggle, One must not be a profound theoretician to know that the or- ganized and armed state and gov- ernment apparatus is the oppressing instrument of the rich ruling class. Any worker or group of workers who come in conflict with the em- ployers and are forced to take up a struggle always find the organized state powers actively engaged in assisting the bosses. Especially is this the case in the present period of growing class antagonisms and numerous sharp class clashes. Even during the strike of the fish hand- Jers, which involved a handful of workers (this industry is not trusti- fied as yet), the capitalist court hastened to assist the bosses with a sweeping injunction egainst the strikers. Every economic struggle expresses the fundamental class antagonisni in capitalist society, and as a result always tends to take on an in- creasingly sharp political character. Because of this, the entire political machine of the boss class is always on the side of its creators and own- 2 ers. Injunctions, mass arrests, mass imprisonments and killing of strik- | ers, the strike-breaking activities of the state government through its police force, courts and if necessary through the National Guard, depor- tations, lynchings and finally the NR.A. in all its phases, beginning from its continuous drive for higher prices for living necessities, wage reductions and inflation and ending | with strike-breaking and company | unionism as the initial step towards | fascist dictatorship, all of these | activities are carried through by the organized state and government powers in a planned and systematic manner in an attempt to assist the ruling class to smash the workers’ | struggles for better living conditions, Indeed, the bourgeoisie and their apologists make every effort to mis- jead the working class into believ- ing that their state and govern- ment are above classes, neutral and equally just to poor and rich alike. But this gigantic lie cannot be con- cealed, Neither can they hide the fact that all their politics are based on economics. Hoover's promise of a “chicken in every pot” (of the rich, of course) was primarily aimed to secure votes and the political power for the Republican political boss party. Roosevelt’s promise of a “New Deal for the forgotten man” and his N, R. A. scheme to bring back the vanished prosperity is an- other example of how these bour- geoisie politicians understand that politics and economics are insep- arable. The cry of the Greens, Wolls and Dubinskys to “keep out” Politics from the unions (meaning Politics in the workers’ interests, of course), their philosophy of pure and simple trade unionism, are the cunning tactics of the lackeys of the bourgeoisie to render a great service to the ruling class by weak- ening the fighting forces of the toiling masses. All this is clearly understood by the class-conscious workers and by the leaders of the revolutionary trade unions and opposition groups. Yet it seems that the revolutionary Jeaders in the trade unions still suf- fer somewhat from the dangerous practices of the social reformisis of isolating the trade unions from the Political struggles. Some of us, frankly speaking, did not rid our- selves completely of this opportunist inheritance, carried unwillingly over to the revolutionary unions, and the result is clearly demonstrated in the insuficient mobilization of the Masses to participate in the po- litical struggles. Additional Causes It seems to me that one of the basic reasons for our failure to link up successfully the economic and political struggles, and engage the masses in both, springs from the lack of understanding of the present ism, the epoch of imperialism and the working class and of the im- mediate dangers confronting the labor movement in general and the revolutionary movement in particu- Jar in this epoch. Some of the leading comrades fail to realize that the underestimation of the tasks of | jthe growing forces of reaction» the rapid development of the fascist | dictatorship in the United States and the unparalleled preparations for imperialist war for the repar- titioning of the world, the only way | out of the crisis for the bourgeoisie, constitute an immediate danger. The opinion of some that in the | United States there is still “a long | way” to Hitlerism (if the working |class will permit it) is one of the stumbling blocks in the way of the) fulfillment of our tasks in the revo- lutionary unions. It proves con- clusively the dangerous underes- timation on the part of the com- Tades. Another important element is also | the fact that somie comrades in- volved in the routine work of the unions, faced with the daily attacks and lying propaganda of the class enemy and its social reformist |agents, that the Communists are not interested in the immediate economic gains of the workers, but in demonstrations and revolutions, become too cautious. Instead of masses and carrying on a system- atic daily battle against this bour- | geois agitation, they follow the pol- jicy of least resistance. Also this is the direct result of the underestimation of our duties and tasks in the present period. In |fact, this underestimation is re- | sponsible for a great many short- | comings in the revolutionary unions |and in the opposition groups, in- cluding the lack of sufficient prep- arations also in our economic | battles, Building the Party Our recruiting activities are not planned and systematic. Recruit- ing for the Party is carried through in a casual manner. It reduces it- self to a small group of comrades who carry on from time to time a recruiting campaign based upon individual personal contacts. Very rarely is this basic task of build- ing the Party taken up at the mass meetings of workers, in spite of the fact that our revolutionary trade union leaders know full well that it is impossible to mobilize and organize the masses for struggle successfully, impossible to win the struggles and impossible to main- tain functioning class struggle unions and opposition groups with- out building up a politicalized, well organized and disciplined function- ing mass fraction. Fractions Our fractions and fraction buros are not molded into political lead- ers of the masses. Very rarely are the political campaigns taken up with the buros and with the frac- tions. They are rarely charged with the tasks of involving the masses in these struggles. Most of our fractions are turned into mect- period as the last stage of capital- | ings for the purpose of carrying out | S2ry t one task, namely, the economic | Struggles and even this si not being | done satisfactorily. Education I dare say that none of our revo- |in the shops either do not function | taking this matter up with the| lutionary unions or opposition | Misery and oppression of the vast groups made a really conscious ef-| Millions of toilers by fort to devise new methods and| minority of exploiters and rulers, | forms of raising the class-conscious- ness of the workers through sys- tematic education. Also this is re- duced to very narrow groups, done} in a primitive form and not on a} mass scale, | The Shop | In spite of the fact that for aj jong time we discussed .and recog | nized the importance of basing our unions on the shops, this strategic field is still neglected. The shop committees are not the leaders of the shop and their initiative is not developed, their leadership not suf- ficiently encouraged and not as- sisted properly. Our Party nuclei at all or do not function properly. Shop papers are not issued regu- | larly or not issued at all. Thus the important campaigns and strug- gles are not brought into the shops to the attention of the masses. The Party sections and section executives are very weakly linked | up with the revolutionary trade unions and the opposition groups. | Only in exceptional struggles of the | unions are the sections mobilized and brought to the battlefront. In spite of numerous attempts made by the Trade Union Unity | Council and the Trade Union Unity | League to build the T.U.U.C. into a| genuine center of the revolutionary | mass organizations, this has so far not been realized, because of the Jack of understanding by the trade union leaders of its importance. The | T.U.U.C. is not as yet the recognized | authoritative leading body of the, masses who follow ig class struggle | policy. In Conclusion These enumerated causes, and undoubtedly many others, are re- | sponsible for the insufficient fulfill- ment of our tasks as revolutionary leaders, particularly as far as the major political struggles and cam- paigns are concerned. The full frank realization of the acuteness of the problem and the immediate crystal- lization and application of the nec- essary measures to strengthen all our links with the rank and file leading apparatus will undoubtedly | result in a great improvement. A special commission of tzade/ union leaders is at present making a thorough study of the causes of the existing situation and will un- doubtedly bring to light a number of very interesting factors which hinder the development of the rev- olutionary trade unions and the op- position groups. There is no doubt that the class conscious workers, non-Party members as well as Party members, Will greet the work of this commission and will assist in every | possible way to achieve its task! and help the various unions and op- | position groups to make the neces- ‘n for the purpose of livin: | up to their tasks, and fulfilling their | | Guties to the toiling masses who are | | engaged in heroic battles against | | the present criminal system of so- | ciety based upon cruel exploitation, the small 19th Assembly District with Harry Haywood as candidate, the 17th As- sembly District including most of Harlem’s Latin - American popula- tion with Armando Ramirez as can- didate, and the 21st Congressional District with James W.
