FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1934 Support the Twenty-Four Hour Strike ANK and file delegates have introduced into the national convention of the American Federation of Labor a resolution for the calling by the A. F. of L., of a gen- eral strike of twenty-four hours, the first week in January, in order to bring for the passage of the Workers’ Unemploy Social Insurance Bill William Green has already stands on this issue, In his report, he comes out against ar unemployment insurance. Gree! n where he tive Council's form of Federal takes the same E stand on this question the employers and the Roosevelt government — t the Worl > Bill is “unconstitutional.” He supports the Wagner-Lewis pill, which is not an unemployment insurance bill, and does not apply to any totally unemployed worker. The rank and file of the American Federation of Labor have a different opinion. They demand that President Roosevelt shall keep his campaign promises to grant unemployment insurance to six- teen million jobless workers. HE resolutions introduced into the American Federation of Labor convention for passage of the Workers’ Unemployment Insurance Bill, the only bill brought to Congress which applies to all the unemployed, reflect the will of several mil- lion workers in the United States, Such Inter- national (A. F. of L,) unions, as the United Textile Union, the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, as well as thousands of local unions and many central bodies, have demanded the passage of the Workers’ Bill. A general strike of 24 hours duration in Janu- ary would go a long way toward forcing the Fed- eral Government to redeem its pledges of security for the unemployed. * . N the basis of the proposals of the Trade Union Unity League for achieving trade union unity around a fighting, class struggle program, the work- ers can win unemployment insurance. The resolutions of the rank and file brought into the San Francisco convention, reflect the wave of litancy which has swept the A. F. of L. local ns. The workers in the A. F. of L. are deter- ned to fight against the attacks of the employers, t the decisions of the N.R.A. boards and of t. They are determined to fight against mpany union, for their elementary right to ze and strike, and for decent wages and con- The growing rank and file opposition inside the A. F. of L. has had enough of Green’s strikebreak- ing policies, his sell-outs, his refusal to organize a fight for their demands. They have had enough of Green’s co-operation with the employers and the Roosevelt government. They are fed up with Green’s refusal to fight for the demands of the unemployed. They are through With his splitting, “Red scare” tactics, with his use of police against militant work- ers. Rank and file oppositions should be built in every A. F. of L. local union on the basis of a fight for the program embodied in the resolutions in- troduced into the national convention by the mili- tant rank and file. The rank and file, through organizing itself solidly in every local union, can clean out the A. F. of L. sell-out artists of the Green and Gorman stripe, and lead a real fight for the workers’ de- mands. 20,000 New Communists N TODAY’S issue of the “Daily,” there is an open letter to workers, taking up some of the reasons that are usually given for not joining the Communist Party. Every reader of the Daily is urged to give this letter serious thought. Every reader of the “Daily” is urged to act on it. In Saturday's issue of the “Daily” there will appear the special letter which the Central Com- mittee of the Communist Party has sent to every Party member on the problem of recruiting new members. This issue should be given special dis- tribution by every unit and every reader of the “Daily.” There has never been a better time than now to recruit new members into the Communist Party. In the recent class battles, in the great ‘Frisco strike, in the textile strike, thousands of American workers have learned to respect and understand the revolutionary role of the Party. These splen- did proletarian fighters belong in the Communist Party and it is up to us to win them for the Party. The goal of the recruiting drive is to win 20,000 new members, to bring the total to above 45,000 by November 7, the anniversary of the October Revo- lution of 1917, What better tribute to Lenin, and to the Oc- tober Revolution, than to bring 20,000 new Amer- ican workers under the banner of the Party, fight- ing for the revolutionary overthrow of Wall Street capitalism? Negro Liberation UR Negroes were slugged in open court in the recent “sedition” trial held at Pemiscott, Missouri. They were organizers of the Pacific Movement of the Eastern World, a move- ment nurtured in this country by Japanese impe- rialism. This case, the details of which are given in an article by Cyril Briggs in another part of today’s is- sue, reveals in miniature the forces at play in the ¢ gro people against the is the weapon of Amer- vho dared to “criticize” its Jim-Crow oppres- rnment officials to this brutality, the typical not making a revo- 1 Street. In fact, they or unconscious dupes of Japanese is cunningly trying to utilize red of the oppressed Negro its own imperialist purposes. ‘se imperialists are not less ruthless t in oppression and brutality against alities in the Par East. even this reactionary organi- by them helps to kindle the na- 1 consciousness of the American Negro people. so American imperialism is striking at the workers in it with lynch brutality. It is only in a revolutionary struggle against all imperialisms, Tokio as well as Wall Street, that the oppressed Negro people can win liberation. It is only when the national liberation struggle of the Negro people is headed by the Negro proletariat, fighting under the Communist Party slogan of “Self-Determination in the Black Belt,” united in class solidarity with the white proletariat, that the fight against the yoke of capitalist exploitation and national oppression can be won, Gorman --- Self-Appointed Crar .. GORMAN, leader of the United Textile Workers Union (A. F. of L.) has sent a letter to President Roosevelt, signing away all of the rights of the tex- tile workers. Gorman promises Roosevelt that the textile workers will agree not to strike for six months and will accept without protest or ques- tion all decisions of the National Textile Labor Relations Board, and the National Labor Relations Board. By what riggt does Gorman set himself up as @ czar over the textile workers and make such vital decisions, robbing a million workers of the right to strike? Did the scores of thousands of textile workers who have been fired and locked out because of their strike activities agree to Gorman’s no strike statement? Did the hundreds of imprisoned strik- ers who are now being given long prison sentences, from New England to Georgia, tell Gorman to tie their hands with a “no strike” guarantee for six months in advance? Did the million textile work- ers who are now being speeded up and ridden with company unions give Gorman such authority? By no means. Gorman has usurped the right to tell a million workers that for six months they cannot carry on any fight against their miserable and worsening conditions, 'ORMAN’S statement reveals the full meaning of President Roosevelt's “no-strike” truce. Whom will this truce help in the textile industry? It will help the textile mill owners. During this truce they will continue their blacklist, their speed-up, their low wage policy. The terror of mill owners’ thugs and of prison sentences by government courts will continue to hound the textile workers, As long as the looms and spindles are running— as long as the textile employers are reaping huge Profits out of the textile workers’ toil—the employ- ers and the Roosevelt boards will be satisfied to maintain the “no strike” truce. Meanwhile, Gorman proclaims himself satisfied to entrust all of the textile workers’ demands to these N.R.A. boards, which have ground down the textile workers to their present plight. . * . r IS high time that every textile worker asked in a loud voice—for whom is this self-appointed czar working? Is he working for the employers? He certainly has done every single thing that they re- quested, from calling off the textile strike without a single gain for the textile workers, to his refusal to fight against the terror in the textile field. If the textile workers accept Gorman’s decision that they must not carry on any fight for their demands for six months, then they will not win their demands against the stretch-out, for union recognition, for higher wages and shorter hours. The rank and file textile workers, who militantly and courageously tied up the textile industry in a general strike, must demand a reckoning of Czar Gorman. The rank and file must build oppositions in every U.T.W. local union, kick out the misleaders who are aiding Gorman’s betrayals, and prepare for strike struggles for all of their demands, Our Circulation HAT Daily Worker circulation must be greatly increased, and rapidly at that, has been frequently emphasized. In strikes, in unemployed struggles, in the fight against the A. F. of L. bureaucracy and other reformist misleaders, in the struggle of the Negro masses, farmers, etc., and in the Commu- nist Party's election campaign, the Daily Worker is vital to success, Because of this we wish to put a number of ques- tions to the leading comrades of a few District or- ganizations: Boston, New Haven, Newark, Philadelphia, Bal- timore, Charlotte, Birmingham: What, concretely, are you doing to hold the increased Daily Worker circulation among the textile workers following the strike? Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Bir- mingham, New Orleans: What are you doing to build Daily Worker circulation, on a solid and per- manent basis, in preparation for the East and Gulf coast marine strike? New York: What are you doing to create a truly solid and permanent mass circulation for the New York Daily Worker? We know you have ordered 150,000 copies of next Monday’s paper—the first issue of the new papers, but what will be the cir- culation on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday ... and the days following? These are urgent questions for the Daily Worker itself and, equally so, for the Districts, We would appreciate hearing from the District and Section organizers, % EAST WTH STREET, NEW YORK, N. Y.

Hayes Jones, editor of the Marine Workers Voice, was roundly applauded as he ana- lyzed the sell-out attempt, and called for a united militant. strike of both longshoremen and seamen. Two seamen were elected from the meeting to broaden the Joint Committee, which is now meeting to make more detailed plans for the strike. More than 500 seamen; employed and unemployed, officers and unlicensed men, have already signed strike cards pledging to walk out Monday morning, Copies of the Daily Worker and Communist Party leafiets urging seamen to reject Olander’s scll-out and all arbitration schemes are being eagerly received on the waterfront.

C., Oct. 4— Lloyd K. Garrison, chairmen of the Roosevelt National Labor Relations Board, and L, H. Peebles, Deputy Administrator of the N. R.

Wages are usually piece rate, the contract in the Kal- inin mills here stating that only where, because of necessity of shift- ing from one job to another, or in- troduction of new processes, it is difficult to establish fair piece rates, payment will be by hour or day. The union contract and the needs of the indust:y, which makes cloth to make into clothes for the work- ing masses of the Soviet Union, and is recognized by both workers and managers as one of the important sectors of the national economy, require that every worker be train- ed to bring out the very best that he is capable of. The factory pays the expenses, including a salary while studying, to 450 young work- ers from the spinning mill (employ- ing about 4,000 workers altogether) to study in the Factory and Mill Apprentice School. It also provides for giving courses in technology and management to 120 adult workers yearly from this same mill of the Proletarka factory, Special Courses Given Similar provisions apply to all other mills (weaving and calico printing mostly) of the Proletarka, and similar contracts contain simi- lar provisions for all other textile factories in the Soviet Union. The workers selected for these courses are those who show intelligence, and a good social consciousness, a reali- zation of the importance of their work. In addition to this, special courses are given after work, taught by the engineers and technicians of the factory, to prepare the workers for the regular “technical minimum examinations,” passing of which automatically raises the workers’ wages because of his increase in skill. In the spinning plant alone 2,979 workers were given these courses last year. Last year the factory administra- tion spent 111,600 rubles on techni- cal education of the workers in the spinning mill alone of the Prolet- arka factory, and similar propo:- tional amounts in other mills. Free Services Many things that are often out of reach of the worker in a capital- ist country, are free here, such as medical attention (wages are paid while sick), vacations in rest homes and curing places, education, etc. The Kalinin, or any other, textile worker in the Soviet Union gets his working clothes free, and it is part jof the union contract that the fac- tory pays for mending them, and if the work is dirty, for washing them too, In addition to regular wages and increase in wages for good work, es- pecially good work brings a bonus, Those who are to receive them at one of the distributions of bonuses every three months, are selected at conferences of the union and the factory director, and nominated at conferences regularly called of all workers by departments, to dis- cuss production problems. Bonuses are usually something useful; a pig, a bicycle, a musical instrument, a sewing machine, or something else the needs of the particular worker being taken into consideration. No Cuts in Wages A skilled worker cannot be trans- ferred to lower paid labor. There is no such thing as firing a skilled man, and rehiring him as a begin- ner—that old trick of wage cutting in capitalist countries. If a man is so transferred, in an emergency, he has to be paid as a skilled worker. A pregnant woman, or a sick or disabled worker can not be dis- charged. They have to be paid their wages while incapacitated, and then given their job back when able to work. There is a four month's leave of absence for women at childbirth. Mothezs have time off during work- hours to nurse their children, and must be paid for time lost in that manner, There is no unemployment in the Soviet Union, and there never will be again, because the socialist econ- omy, once as well established as it is |Pay Cannot Be Reduced; Long Vacations Are Granted EachYear now, can not have a capitalist crisis. Workers, mechanics, who bring their own tools to the job, get extra pay for the use of these tools, in ac- cordance with an agreement made between the individual worker, the union and the administration. Low Rate of Accidents The Proletarka and all other Kal- inin textile mills are electrified, and this means an absence of overhead shafts and belts. This means a very low rate of accidents. Nevertheless, the drive to entirely eliminate ac- cidents goes on unabated. By con- tract with the union, the adminis- tration had, in 1933, to install 33,000 rubles worth of safety machinery. Similar amounts are assigned yearly. Each department has its first aid corner in case of accidents. Nos only drinking water is provided, but hot water in all departments. The factory issues to each worker week- ly, clean towels, and soap, which he keeps in his locker. The factory provides shower baths and bathtubs free to each worker for a daily bath after his shift is finished. Factory Works 3 Shifts Incidentally, the factory works three shifts, so great is the need of products. Each shift is seven hours. But where there is unavoidably high temperature and moisture, six hours is worked. Furthermore, the night shift gets one-seventh more pay than the two day shifts. The Soviet textile industry, as ex- emplified by the Proletarka mill at Kalinin from which most of hese Kalinin from which most of these cern, production booming, new. men being taken on, wages going up, with a high degree of ‘safety of labor, with the worker shielded from the accidents and from any possible injustices in the industry by law and by the union contzact. Contrast it with the situation in capitalist countries where unem- ployment rages, where terrific strikes are being waged against wage cuts, where accidents and disease multi- ply. It is the difference between the two systems, capitalism and so- cialism, new Industrial Relations Board. The Board, actually aware of the prospect of effective strike undcr the leadership of the joint strike preparation committee, was still discussing the marine situation late today, It was said at N. R. A. head- quarters they might reaci some de- cision tonight or tomorrcw. Garrison again acknowledged that “serious” strikes under mili- tant leadership are expected here, but expressed the “hope” that it would not be solid. He said he had received a telegram from the Phila- delphia joint strike committee, de- manding that it participate in any strike negotiations. He explained that, as he said in New York, he would be willing to seek a confer- ence between shipowners and mili- tant seamen’s leaders, but that “the shipowners probably wouldn’t grant it because they take the attitude that these leaders are Communists and would strike anyway.” €. P, TICKET IN WISCONSIN COUNTY IRON BELT, Wis., Oct. 4—For the first time in the history of this county workers will have an op- portunity to vote for Communist candidates. A county slate has been chosen here headed by Donald Bjork, candidate for Qounty Reg- istrar of Deeds, wer Scottsboro Appeal Denied in Alabama (Continued from Page 1) holds that decision, in which it had arbitrarily struck from the record the bill of exceptions, and refused to note the violation of the con- stitutional rights of the Negro people by the lower court, and the rabid lynch incitement of the presiding Judge, “Speed” Callahan, as well as of the prosecutor, At- torney General Thomas E. Knight, Jr., son of one of the Supreme Court justices. In the Decatur trial, Callahan had hampered the defense at every move, overruling the objections of the International Labor Defense at- torneys and even denying their right to cross-examine perjured witnesses or to inquire into the glaring contradictions of the State’s witnesses. As a fitting climax to the openly hostile actions of the court, Judge Callahan in his charge to the jury neglected to state that the jury could acquit the defend- ants, and had to be reminded by the defense attorneys of this or- dinary court procedure. Callahan was put in charge of the case when Judge Horton, who presided at the first Decatur trial, was forced to admit that the evi- dence was preponderantly in favor of the innocence of the nine boys, framed up on a charge of having “raped” Ruby Bates and Victoria Price on a moving freight train between Memphis, Tenn., and Paint Rock, Ala., in 1931.

Socialist construction in the Soviet Union has won the sympathy of the majority of the British work- ers, and for that reason the Labar Party leaders, the next parliamentary elections, are forced to come out with their scheme pretending to offer the workers immediate socialism if they are victorious in the elections. ee [ANY years ago Lenin analyzed the basis for the brazen hypoc- risy of the British Labor Party lead- ers. He pointed out that the Mac- Donalds, the Hendersons, and Thomases ‘were the out-and-out agents of British imperialism. Mac- Donald has since completely gone over into the camp of the conserva- tives. Mosely, for example, has be- come the Fascist leader. These lead- ers, masquerading as fighters for labor, while in reality being tied by a thousand threads to the whole bloody policy of British imperial- ism, are forced to act like the vilest hypocrites, The workers want socialism. That. is the only way the British Labor Party leaders believe they can win the majority of the workers behind them in the next elections. Now the problem for them is how to preserve the interests of British im- perialism, of the colonial slave-hold- ers, of the big landlords, and the trust owners and bankers, and at the same time make the workers believe they will get socialism. The first thing, of course, is to keep the worker from organizing and fighting for socialism, ibe hee O different views were offered the convention, one a socalled “left” and the other the official view, The “lefts” proposed outright con- fiscation, but still within the charm- ed circle of capitalist parliamentary government. The official view, whica was overwhelmingly adopted, pro- posed guaranteeing to the exploiters the fruits of the exploitation of la- bor by paying them for the taking over of industry. “Public acquisition will involve the payment of a fair compensation to the existing owners, but thereafter they will have no further part in the control, management, financcs or policy of the publicly-owned con- cern,” said the zesolution, 'HE capitalist state will be left in- tact. The king will remain, the House of Lords will remain, the capitalist parliament will remain, all of the oppressive forces of the cap~ italist class will remain. The state (the capitalist dictatorship which in- sures their domination) will not be touched in the slightest. Stocks will be issued to all of the parasites, and industry will become state-owned, with profits paid regularly to the exploiters. elas, eae OW let us see the lessons of Ger= many and Austria. There too the Socialist Parties, very powerful, were even more “radical” in their pursuit of “peaceful” socialism. In Austria, especially, they had armed forces to “protect” their peaceful advent into socialism. But there was only one hitch, and that was the dictator- ship of the capitalist class, the state. When the capitalists thought the threat of “socialism” was real, they organized their fascist hordes, des+ troyed their so-called democratic parliaments and left the workers’ organizations in a mass of ruins— except, of course, the Communist Party which had forseen the role of the capitalist state and had warned the workers against the treacher- ous role of the Socialists, preparing for continuing the real struggle for Socialism by the overthrow of the capitalist state and the establish« ment of the proletarian dictatorship, ey ae | KF. their scheme of socialism, with= out the elimination of a capitalist class, the British Labor Party lead- ers, of course, expect to keep intact the whole colonial empire of British imperialism, With fascism raising its ugly head everywhere, with the British nae tional government nuturing the Mosley fascist movement, the British Labor Party comes to the rescue of the exploiting class by offering to disarm the working class and pre- vent any struggle for the actual ree alization of socialism. ‘ . * 8 a Ete is the class role of the So- cialist leaders expressed more openly in Britain than in any other country, They promise the works ers immediate socialism on assump+ tion of posts in his Maiesty’s gove ernment. They tell the workers merely to vote for them and then stop worrying or fighting. Every- thing comes to him who waits, they tell the workers—but they do not tell him that Fascism, under these conditions comes first.
