| RN ARLE RELI REET IERIE IT United Action Against the Betrayal! An Editorial RANCIS J. GORMAN’S brazen attempt to sell out the textile strike should again focus the attention of every class-conscious worker on the need for a united struggle of Socialists and Communists against the pol- icies of the corrupt A. F. of L. leadership and their un- derlings like Gorman in the DW is di Ss Tn the recent exchange of communications between the Socialist Party and the Com- munist Party on united ac- tion, reference was made to this vital question. The let- ter of the S. P. states that “No united action on spe- cific issues is possible he- tween Socialists and Com- munists except on a basis which also gives hope of ending fratricidal strife within the trade union movement.” To this the Communist Party answered: If this means am end to struggles be- tween Socialist and Commu- nist workers within the unions and the formation of a joint policy of struggle against the A. F. of L. hier- archy—by all means, let us do so. But, said the letter of the Communist Party, “.,.. there is another pos- sible and opposite under- standing of the sentence quoted from your letter.

The official organ of the S. P. su ted Francis J. Gor- man at every turn, mocking at the warnings of the Com- munist Party and its official organ, the Daily Worker. Leading members of the So- cialist Party took a prominent part in the direction of the strike. Paul Porter of the S. P. and John Edelman did a good deal of the publicity work for the U. T. W. Other members of the Socialist, Party were active in the lead- ership. Socialist radio sta- tion WEVD was put at the disposal of Gorman a number of times.

If the latter is true, then | all workers will have to draw their own conclusion about the S.

F. of L. ' unions who were to meet to arrange financial support of the strike. Other generous support consisted in bawling out Gorman for daring to even intimate (for publicity pur- poses) that a general strike in sup- port of the textile workers might be considered. The U.T.W. executive council sent “greetings” to the hungry workers and declared: “Tt is our unanimous view, which we shall support by our further statements, that the union has won an overwhelming victory, that we ought to terminate the strike as no longer necessary and that we now go forth in a triumphant campaign of organization. Moreover, we can- not refuse to cooperate with the President, as he has asked us to do... “We have now gained every sub- stantial thing that we can gain in this strike.” The presidentially-anointed “ex- cellent” Winant report recommended that union recognition is not “feas- ible” . “at this time”; that a Textile Labor Relations Board should be set up, with “full juris- diction over the administration and enforcement not only of Section 7a, but also of all other labor provisions of the textile codes, including such provisions as have been or may be | adopted in reference to the stretch- out.” Thus the U.T.W. officials ac- cepted another “board,” despite Gorman's numerous statements that the workers were sick of boards and knew them only as bureaucratic traps. On wages, the report recommended no i “investiga- tions” and more ports.” This time the Federal Trade Commission and the Labor Department will at- tempt to pull the N.R.A. wool over the workers’ eyes. | On the stretch-out, officials eme braced a decision granting no im- mediate relief, despite the fact that | the Winant Board declared: “It is | clear to the board. . that there has in the months following the adop- tion of the code been a materially increased use of the stretchout sys- Hence, “after securing the able a e from expert . we have concluded that, owing to the great number of vari- ables, it is not feasible. at the pres- ent time to evolve any general for- | mula to regulate the numerous types | of machines, fabrics and other fac- | tors.” However, with the “aid of | time and experience a formula can | be developed.” This “formula” calls | for the establishment of a stretch- }out “Control Board,” under which the workers are asked to return to the factories under the same condi- tions against which they struck, in the face of machine guns and bayo- nets.
