DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1934 Siate Election Program of the Socialist Party Fails to Meet Needs Of the Working Class, Israel Amter Points Out in Ana © GP, Candidate Cites Record OfS.P. Leaders Gives in Detail Their Position on Major Current Issues By I. Amter Communist Candidate for Governor of New York The Socialist Party comes before the workers of this country in the State and Congressional election on the basis of a program allegedly in the interests of the working class! and for the establishment of a “co- operative commonwealth.” Drawing up an indictment of the capitalist system, the Socialist Party, in its New York State platform, proposes a left wing capitalist program of de- mands for the workers, pretending | that this will lead to “socialism.” No matter how “radical” the pro- gram of any party may be, we judge a party not by its resolutions alone, but particularly by its deeds. What does it. mean when the S. P, de- clares that it is struggling for “an adequate program for unemploy- ment relief,” when throughout the country they co-operate with relief officials and refuse to unite the un- employed on the basis of a program of real struggle? Thus, in connec- tion with the unity of the unem- ployed, the leaders of the Soziaiisu- controlled unemployed organiza- tions have systematically refused aj} united front with the National Un- employment Council, and only re- cently at the Convention of the Na- tional Unemployed League (Muste) declared they would “unite with anybody except the Communists and the National Unemployed | Council.” | The S. P. and Unemployment | Insurance What does their program amount to when it declares “for unemploy-| ment insurance on the basis of a} state-wide fund,” when in the State | of Wisconsin they have assisted in putting through the Groves Bill, which eliminates from unemploy- ment compensation all the unem- ployed and the agricultural workers as a body, who represent the mass of workers of Wisconsin! It is no} other than Paul Douglas, well| known Socialist, who is the advisor | to the U. S. Government in the elaboration of a so-called “unem- | ployment insurance” bill which will deny insurance to the 16,000,000 un- employed. In the State of New York, Louis Waldman, State chair- man of the S. P., campaigned for the Byrne-Condon Bill, which was supported by Gov. Lehman and which would not grant a single penny of insurance to the more than 2,000,000 unemployed in the State of New York. The hypocrisy of the Socialist Party leadership is best exemplified in the columns of the New Leader, official organ of the S. P. In the August 25 issue of that organ, the Socialists praise the sys\2m of un- employment insurance that has been introduced in Sweden by the social-democratic government. But according to this system, “the an- nual cost will be 36,000,000 kronen. Workers will contribute 21,000,000 kronen, the Government supplying the balance!” But it is not only in the matter of program that the Socialist Party shows up its character. In the city of Bridgeport, Conn., the Socialist, Jasper McLevy, campaigned for Mayor on a program calling for $15 a week relief, plus $3 for each de- pendent. Once in office Mayor Mc- Levy saw to it that the workers of Bridgeport did not receive more than $3 to $ 4a week, and clubbed the unemployed when they made their demands. In the city of Milwaukee Dan Hoan, Socialist Mayor of the “best regulated city in the U. S.,” similarly clubbed and still clubs the workers who demand adequate un- employment relief. This is quite in keeping with the actions of any Democratic, Republican or Fusion mayor in the country. S. P. and the New Deal The Socialist Party clearly ex- Pose its position as the supporter of the “New Deal” in the commenda- tion given to Roosevelt by the late “orthodox Marxian” Morris Hill- quit, and the “militant” leader. Norman Thomas, who declarea that the “New Deal” was a “a step in the direction of socialism.” During the period of the crisis these gen- tlemen declared that “now is no time to strike.” But, when in spite of the “New Deal” and its being a “step to socialism” more than 2,000,000 workers went out on strike against the intolerable wages and conditions in the shops, then the S. P. at its convention in Detroit, in June, declared “the New Deal is not a step in the direction of so- cialism.” But it was just the So- cialists who had declared that it at vrs the Communist Party ‘rom th¢ very beginning anal, the “New Deal” as a step in ioe: rection of fascism in preparation for another imperialist war. The masses in the U. S. did not accept the Socialist position and went out on strike. _ When the gigantic struggles took Place in Toledo, San Francisco, When the textile workers struck, then the Socialists showed clearly where they stood. In Toledo, Leo Kryzcki, chairman of the Socialist Party, openly co-operated with My- ers, leader of the A. F. of L. in To- ledo, in an attempt to sell out the Strike of the Auto-lite workers, but Was prevented from doing so by the activities of the Communist Party, Buiding the masses of the workers. * When the general strike took The candidates (1. to r.) are: Israel Amter, for Governor; Williana J. Burroughs, for Lieutenant-Governor; Fred Briehl, for Attorney-General; Senator; Rese Wortis, for State Comptroller; Clarence Hathaway, for Congressman, Seventh District, Kings County; Carl Brodsky, for Assembly, Eighth District, New York County; Emanuel Levin and Henry Sheppard, for Congress-at-Large, and Ben Gold, for Assembly, Seventh District, Bronx County. LEADING CANDIDATES OF COMMUNIST PARTY IN STATE ELECTIONS TODAY Max Bedacht, for U.S. | Place in California and when Gen. , promise of nothing. Johnson, as representative of Presi- dent Roosevelt, went to California to break the strike; when with the | aid of Senator Wagner, Frances Perkins, who put the Immigration Department at the disposal of the Industrial Association for the de- {portation of all militant foreign- born workers; and when William Green sent a telegram to President | Vanderleur of the Central Labor | Council, declaring that the strike was a local strike and the general Strike was unauthorized—what was the position of the Socialist Party? Speaking at a picnic in Metuchen, N. J., on Aug. 25, Norman Thomas said he “deplored Gen, Johnson’s actions during the San Francisco strike, and that much of the trouble might have been averted had the R. A. Administrator acted | Promptly.” In other words, Thomas completely supports the strike- breaking activities of Gen. Johnson and regrets that he did not break the strike more promptly. When one looks at the textile workers’ strike, a strike of 500,000 heroic men and women against the shameful conditions in the South; and when one regards the strike- | breaking leadership of Gorman and McMahon that sold out the strike, then one sees the S. P. leadership in all its glory. The 500,000 workers, facing the worst terror in the coun- try, with sixteen of their members murdered in cold blood by the Na- tional Guard, of whom there were 40,000 in the field, pleaded with Gorman to extend the strike, to call out the rayon, dye, velvet workers, etc. This Gorman refused to do. On the contrary, he sabotaged the work of the flying squadrons, refused to aid the workers on the picket line, except through a lot of bombastic pronouncements over the radio. When William Green promised to call a conference of the Interna- tionals affiliated to the A. F. of L. in order to raise relief and to pro- vide other support, this conference was called off the next day on the pretense that it would be the first item on the order of business at the A. F. of L. Convention in San Fran- cisco on Oct. 1! Ninety days longer the 500,000 textile workers were told to face the armed gangsters, thugs, National Guard, police and the eventual sending of the U. S. Army by Roosevelt. In this situation, when the whele American working class shouid have been mobilized and every textile mill in the U. S. should have been shut tight, as the Com- munists proposed, Gorman and Mc- Mahon accepted Roosevelt’s Media- tion Board and sent the workers back to work without a single de- mand granted or even promised. This, Gorman called a “triumph,” a “victory!” S. P. and Textile Strike What wes the position of the S. P. in this strike? The National Executive Committee of the S. P. assigned none other than the Chair- man of the S. P. Leo Kryzski, who is also a vice-president of the Amal- gamated Clothing Workers, to assist the U.T.W. leaders, Therefore, the S. P. was equally responsible for the sell-out, Let us look at the columns of the New Leader and what do we find? We find Norman Thomas declaring “the Winant (President Roosevelt's board) report offered certain mode- rate gains to the worker in the matter of handling labor complaints under the codes, in the probable curbing of the stretch-out system, and, possibly, in laying the basis for wage increases and fuller recogni- tion of the union.” (Emphasis ours.). This is a brazen lie. The workers have gone back to work on the | the strike in order to betray it—and stitute, has granted no recognition to their demands, The workers went back to work on promise of “a re- | last year pretended that the United | whole stream of our social and c port” to be made by the Winant | Front with the Communists and the | tural life. | militant workers was made impos-| Crow policy of the S. P. Committee by Jan. 1, 1935. This is all part of the pledge that Gorman and McMahon gave to Gen. John- son, which the latter exposed in New York City about a month ago when he declared that “Gorman and McMahon gave me the pledge that there would be no strike.” When the rank and file convention decided | for strike, Gorman and McMahon | placed themselves at the head of they did betray it. | The New Leader, however, of Oct. | 6, sees in this betrayal “a victory for the workers.” The shameless at- titude of these Socialist leaders must be condemned by the rank and file of the Socialist Party. For such sell-outs, David Dubinsky, So- cialist President of the LL.G.W.U., has been made a vice-president of the A. F. of L. For such sell-outs, Sidney Hillman, co-worker of the Socialist leaders, president of the A.C.W.A., has been placed on the National Labor Relations Board, and only recently approved the eon- tinuation of the auto code, which legalizes the company union. This is the Socialist Party in action on the labor field. Socialist Party and Upton Sinclair The Socialist Party pretends that it is conducting a campaign against Upton Sinclair, the so-called “re- negade Socialist” of California. But this is utterly untrue. Norman Thomas openly apologizes for Sin- | clair. He says (New Leader, Oct. 6), | “It is not the job of Socialists to| fight Sinclair as an individual, We have got to go out of our way to make it clear that we are not want- ing to give aid and comfort to Gov. Merriam.” On Oct. 27, Thomas states, “While we are compelled to distrust Upton Sinclair, his method and his plan, not for a minute do we exclude the vicious and con- temptible attacks made by his enemies of the capitalist right . . . what Sinclair has done is to take seme pretty good ingredients, mosily Socialist ingredients, etc., ete.” What is this but clearest apology for Sin- clair and his program? This is merely in justification of the fact that Thomas himself openly co- operated in the City of New York with the LaGuardia Fusion admin- istration as a member of the Char- ter Revision Commission; Mr. Viadek, of the Jewish Daily For- ward, is a member of LaGuardia’s Housing Commission. This close co- operation with the capitalist parties has made it easy for Paul Blanshard to join the Fusion Party; Carl Borders to become an official of the NR.A., Paul Douglas to assist the U. S. government, Sinclair to be- come a “New Dealer.” Socialist Party and Unity At a time when in every capital- ist country, fascism has either been established or is seeking to estab- lish itself; and whem in the U. S. especially through the “New Deal” and the organization of fascist bodies, with the open participation ef public officials and business men, it becomes clear that the struggle against fascism must be taken up with all energy. At a time when war is knocking at the door, when sharp diplomatic notes are being exchang- ed by the imperialist powers (U. S. and England to Japan; Yugoslavia to Hungary and Italy), when the Japanese imperialist government | threatens the Soviet Union in the East and is planning an invasion of Inner Mongolia in preparation for this war, when Germany plans war, Mr. George , it obviously becomes the task for all | super-structure of Negro life. . « ») paring today to struggle further and Sloan, of the National Textile In- | who are sincere in the struggle | Negro labor will give strength and|to get your rights, what is to be| against war to unite ranks.

L. unless they cease their | activities. Members of the Y. P. S. L. in the League for Industrial Democracy who favor unity with the National Student League are| likewise threatened with expulsion. When the Bridgeport workers pro- tested against the permission given | to Consul-General Borchers of the) fascist Mitler government to speak in Bridgeport, and when they de- manded a permit to hold a protest demonstration, Jasper McLevy, So-| cialist Mayor of Bridgeport, de-| clared that his policy is “hands off the police department”—with the | result that the workers were clubbed and arrested. This is the Socialist | Party leadership in the struggle! | against fascism and war! S. P. and the Negroes When the Communist Party ap-| pealed to the leaders of the S. P. to form the united front in support of the Socialist, Communist and other workers in Spain who went out in revolt against the fascist Lerroux government, the answer of Norman Thomas and the N. E. C. of the S. P. was silence. The State Platform of the S. P. says not a word about the masses of the Negroes in the State of New York. At a time when the lynch terror is growing, also in New York (Brooklyn, Niagara Falls), when the attempt to electrocute the Scotts- boro boys is assisted by the Demo- cratic lawyer Leibowitz and Negro| betrayers, the S. P. continues its| acts of sabotage to the militant de- fense both in the courts and on the streets that has been afforded the| Scottsboro boys by the Communists) and the International Labor De- fense. At a time when the Negro masses are openly discriminated against in the codes; when hundreds of thousands are denied relief, and starvation and disease as a conse- quence are rampant among them; at a time when Mr. R. R. Moton, president of the Tuskegee Institute, proposes “That the Negro workers should jbe paid less on the ground that they are less efficient” (Pitts- burgh Courier), the S. P. continues to Jim Crow the Negroes and to} carry on a campaign to separate them from the white masses, who, under the leadership of the Com- munists, are ready to fight for Ne-| gro rights. But it is left to Frank Crosswaith, Negro Socialist, to express the full Jim Crow policy of the S. P. In the New Leader, Crosswaith says, | “When it is understood that all Ne- gro institutions—business, religious, fraternal, etc—depend for their strength and durability on the earn- ings of Negro workers, we then be- ; ‘ i awk een | When you go on the picket line the ainst this exploitation, as| pel cayenne super-exploita- | Police do not ask which church you tion of the white capitalists, that|&° to, what your nationality is, | the Communist Party is mobilizing| Which political party you belong to. the Negro people and white workers| Down cemes the cinb on the head in joint columns to fight for full| of every worker.

Koropatoff earned this honorary title by hav- ing invented an electrical battleship which he places at the disposal of the U. S. Government. This is the open militarism and imperialism manifested by a leading Socialist with the knowledge and sanction of the S. P. leaders. No wonder, therefore, that Charles Solomon, candidate for Governor on the Socialist ticket of New York, procures injunctions against workers on strike and ex- presses contempt for the workers whose conditions have been cut down by the crisis. Speaking in Brownsville, N. Y., on Oct. 5, he stated, “the reason the Socialist Party in Brownsville today is not the So- cialist Party of 1916 is that Browns- ville is not the same now as it was then. In 1916 Brownsville was a fine residential section eccupied by highly paid skilled workers and by the lewer middie class business men. At that time the Socialist Party |had people in Brownsville to whom to carry its message. With the miser- able, unseif-respecting slum prole- tarian elements which live here now the Socialist Party can do nothing. These slum proletarians are useful enly to Tammany politicians. They are interested only in getting help from district leaders and ward cap- tains.” Thus the Socialist Party leaders characterize the workers of the U.S. This is the position of every capitalist politician. This is the position against the workers who are fighting against hunger, fascism end war. And this is the reason why the Citizens’ Union of New York, a body of wealthy and middic class business men, professionals, etc., has endorsed candidates of the S. P. in the elections. Workers of New York, those of you who are looking for a way out of the crisis and have seen what the New Deal is with its Section 7-A and its supposed right for the working class; you who by the mil- gin to appreciate the importance of the Negro workers to the entire lions have gone out in_ struggle against the New Deal and are pre- is Norman Thomas himself and his | | lieutenants who refuse to unite the workers in the coming Congress for Unemployment and Social In- | surance. Is it not obvious, there- fore, that the Communist Party is your party, the only party of the working class carrying on the fight against hunger, fascism and war— the fight to destroy the system that breeds hunger and war and to es- tablish a revolutionary workers’ gov- ernment, a Soviet government in the U.
