C., convening from Jan. 5 to Jan. 7. i Already hundreds of delegates from American Federation of Labor local unions and So- Cialist Party locals have been elected. The National Congress for Unemployment Insurance’ will repre- sent directly hundreds of thousands of workers who _-Slected the delegates. There will be several thou- sand delegates. In the remaining five days before the Congress, the task of all militant workers is to broaden the support for the Congress still more, to popularize its aims and its decisions among millions of workers throughout the country. The broadening of the sup- port for the National Congress for Unemployment Insurance becomes still more important in view of the fact that Roosevelt is drastically cutting down relief roils and cutting down the amount of relief even before the U. S. Congress opens. Roosevelt has stated his opposition to any federal unemployment insurance. He is trying to put over some “reserves” plan which will not include those already unem- ployed. On January Seventh the National Congress for Unemployment Insurance will present its demands to President Roosevelt for adequate relief, and for the ‘Workers’ Unemployment and Social Insurance Bill. On that date, throughout the whole country, the workers’ organizations are holding demonstrations in support of the national demands of the unem- ployed and to present their local demands to the local governments. Every A. F. of L. local, every unemployed organization, every Socialist Party local, should play an active part in these demonstrations on Jan, 7. Undoubtedly the Roosevelt government, and the employers’ press will try to belittle the Congress, * will suppress or distort news of it, as they have done Rem oll now. They will try to defeat the demands of Bef unemployed by attacking the national congress. ‘Snerefore it is all the more necessary for the mil- suions of employed and unemployed workers through- out the country to demonstrate in no uncertain terms their support of the National Congress for ‘Wnemployment Insurance, and its demands. "he meaning and demands of the congress should be explained and popularized to the masses of workers before, during and after the National Con- /gress. Telegrams of support for the congress should / be sent by all organizations to the congress, for its opening on Jan. 5, Washington Auditorium, 19th and E. Streets, N. W., Washington, D. C. Those who remain at home should rally to the support of the demands of the National Congress for Unemployment Insurance by taking part in the nation-wide demonstrations on Jan. 7. These dem- onstrating thousands are a part of the National Congress. Demonstrate Jan. 7. in support of the National Congress for Unemployment Insurance. } Zon. ‘Discipline’ in the S.P. and United Front N IMPORTANT bulletin has just been issued by the Revolutionary Policies Committee within the Socialist Party. This bulletin corrects the impression given by a story in the Daily Worker on De- cember 7 reporting that five Southern Socialist Party state organizations had entered into a united front agreement with the Communist Party on im- 3: Mediate issues facing the working class. The R.P.C. bulletin states: “Contrary to the scare headlines in the Daily Worker five Southern states have not entered into a united front with the C. P. A proposal was made by a number of comrades who happened to be in Chattanooga, attending a church conference, urg- . } ing their respective state organizations—in line " with the N-E.C. decision—to consider the possibil- ity of establishing a united front. It is clear that although an unfortunate use was made of the action by the C. P., that the comrades thought their procedure within the discipline of the party. Furthermore, the telegram sent by Francis Henson reprinted in that issue of the Daily Worker was sent by him as an individual and not as secre- tary of the R.P.C.; this is in contrast to the Daily @ | Worker report.” (1 These are the facts as now given by the R.P.C, bulletin. Obviously if these are the real facts, the report in the Daily Worker has now to be amended, and the Daily Worker is only too willing to accept the correction and to give the situation as it actually exists. The Daily Worker has never and never will attempt to misinform either itself or the working class on a single issue that concerns the workers. It is only by proceeding on the basis of real condi- tions that the united front can be advanced. The "-report given in the Daily Worker was given solely ‘on the basis of the documents available at the time, the telegrams from the South relaying the story. If the united front in the South is not yet the reality which the Daily Worker reported earlier, _ then clearly our task is to press forward to make the x 6 agreement of Chattanooga the basis for an actual united front agreement between the state or- ganizations in the South, And the telegraphic news report in today’s _- *Daily” indicates that members of the Socialist _\ Party are actually working together with C. P. rep- Tesentatives to make this united front a reality. Surely, the need for this joint action is not less, but greater than ever! * * * 7 action, the R. P. C. bulletin lays down the follow- OP isin te methods for reaching united front “ing policy: with our loy- any individual . The DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, MONDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1934 is not by exte: 1 action in contravention of party decisions but ugh inner party channels, Fur- thermore. we are defeated in our attempts, then it is our duty as loyal party members to present a united front to the outside, yes, even to defend a decision which has gone against us, and than at the same time to fight with all our power against such ideas or decisions within the party There are two fundamental issues badly confused here! One is the question of discipline, the other is the question of work class policy in the interests of the working class. The Communist Party is not opposed to discipline. But what is the fundamental test for all discipline? It is whether or not this dis- cipline is in the interests of the working class! this bulletin the R.P.C. defends, on the ground of some abstract “discipline,” a policy and a group within the S. P. which it itself denounces as pursuing anti-working class policies! Does not this act conception of discipline then turn into its e, from a pro-working cl idea into an idea t the interests of the working class? In ‘VEN if its efforts for united action are defeated, the R. P. C, pledges in advance that it will pre- sent “a unified front to the outside” and “defend these decisions.” Now, what does this mean? the R.P.C. is prepared to give, on the ground of ab- stract “discipiine,” pledges of acquiescence to the “Old Guard” which the “Old Guard” would never give to the R.P.C.! What kind of “discipline” is it that always per- mits the “Old Guard” to trample as it wishes on every decision of the majority of the S. P. member- ship when these decisions are not to their liking? The open and ruthless tramovling on all party “discipline” by the “Old Guard” and its supporters is very well stated by the R.P.C. bulletin -itself when it states: “Sad to relate, ever since the Detroit conven- tion, the N.E.C. cannot be distinguished in its acts from what went before.” What kind of “discipline it that permits the newly-elected National Executive Committee to dis- regard the clear mandate of the party membership as expressed in the Declaration of Principles? Is this “discipline” in the interests of the working class? The “Old Guard” both in New York, and at the recent National Executive Committee meeting made their intention of flouting the national party refer- endum on the Declaration of Principles quite clear. The R.P.C. bulletin itself in this issue reveals that “the N.E.C. will search out so-called factions | that endorse out and out revolutionary positions | and permit other factions (witness the factionalism of the Daily Forward and the New Leader) to go | their merry way.” Precisely! Precisely! Yes, indeed! This is just what we mean! Can any honest, revolutionary subscribe. to this kind of “discipline” which always acts in a direc- tion away from the united front for working class struggle? . ET every honest revolutionary worker consider seriously the kind of discipline that permits the “Old Guard” to sabotage the united front, violating all party mandates, while the R.P.C. is prepared to “defend these decisions” of the “Old Guard” in order to “present a unified front to the outside?” What is primary, the interests of the working class, which the R.P.C., recognizes as hindered by the “Old Guard,” or “a unified front to the outside” with the “Old Guard?” What kind of “discipline” is this which always acts in the direction of permitting united fronts with William Green, with White Guards in New York “protesting terrorism in the Soviet Union,” while united front to the left, with the Communist Party, suddenly becomes violation of “discipline.” The united front of the working class, comrades of the R.P.C., is the concern not only of a group, or a party, but of the whole working class! It. is with this profound seriousness that the C. P. strives to accomplish it. We urge that the line as laid down in the R.P.C, bulletin be examined by its members in light of the practical results to which it will lead. ‘For One Union of Seamen HE proposals of the Marine Workers In- dustrial Union to the International Seamen’s Union for a merger of all unions among the sailors into one powerful or- ganization printed in Friday’s Daily Worker, will prove of far-reaching significance if seamen on ships and in locals of all unions take them up immediately for serious consideration. Fayorable action upon those proposals would mean the greatest stride forward for the American seamen towards freeing themselves from the status of “50 dollar-a-month-man,” from the fink hails, and towards raising their standards to a point that & seaman would have his own shipping bureau, decent wages, and living conditions upon ships that are fit for human beings. The opportunities were never so favorable as now. The strike of West Coast marine workers, and the October strike of the East Coast seamen, has forced the shipowners to recog- nize the International Seamen’s Union, and give the few crumbs they have conceded in the proposed agreement, The mass of American seamen are ready to join a union, and fight for the demands they came out for in the recent strikes. But the proposed agreement forces upon the sea- men the $57.50 scale in place of the $75 demanded. Fink halls and shipping sharks remain. Most of the demands were ignored. Accepting it, means not only tying the seamen down to the same miserable conditions which preyail. It is letting go a golden opportunity for a powerful organization of seamen. It is precisely with this in view that the M.W. LU. has made its proposals. The M.W.1.U. knows that the mass of seamen if given an opportunity to vote and voice their opinion on the proposed agreement would reject it, and accept the program | of struggle. The M.W.1I.U. has now given a demonstration that should convince every seaman that its pleas for united action behind the recent strikes were made sincerely—guided only by the desire to raise the living standards of the workers. The M. W.I. U. is ready to arrange for its entire membership merging into the locals of the I. S. U. PROVIDED, the proposed agreement is submitted for a wide discussion of all seamen (excepting only scabs) and for a referendum yote of all seamen. It agrees to abide by a majority vote of the seamen. If the agreement is rejected negotiations should be re- opened with the shipowners. If the membership of the I. S. U. agrees to such a program, membership of the M.W.LU. should be transferred to the LS.U. without discrimination; officials must be made responsible to the rank and file; full guarantee of democracy in the union must be given, and a con- vention should be called as soon as possible of the united union, and general elections held. Every rank and file seaman certainly will agree to such a program. Mi] is the high officials, the Olanders, who are opposing it. It is up to the LS8.U. members in the locals and on ships to act, and act quickly. * _ “2 LY This means that | Party Life | Organizer Cites Need of Pamphlet On Work in Shops Some time ago I wrote in Party Life how we organized a unit in a steel mill.

Judge McDevitt, one of Phila- delphia’s most vicious red-baiters, recently started a poisonous attack on the Party here, which led to the refusal to permit the Party to use the city-owned Convention Hall for the Lenin memorial meeting, in spite of a signed contract previ- | ously negotiated.

The first place in this list is to- day occupied by the Gorki automo- bile plant. On Dec, 28 the factory released from its conveyer its 49,000th machine. Since its opening | the factory has given the country 83,500 automobiles, and in addition to this 32,000 motors. While the Otto Bauers and Julius | Deutsches of the Austrian Socialist | Party were conniving with the Aus- | trian bourgeoisie to prevent an armed clash, thereby weakening the struggles of the workers, the prole- tariat in Linz and Vienna entered into the battle. After: nearly a week of fighting, the workers were defeated. But the aftermath of the defeat saw a growing destruc- tion of the illusions that the work- ers still retained in the honeyed promises of Bauer of a peaceful, “democratic” development into So- cialism, The anti-Fascist struggles in Austria were preceded by the Feb- Tuary 6 events in Paris, when the Fascists, through street attacks, sought to force a fascist regime into power. The French workers an- swered by a huge general strike. This was followed by repeated united front battles formed first from b2low, against the fascists, gles, though in some districts it was carried on together with the leaders of the Socialist Party, there grew the mighty umited front of the Socialist and Communist Party of France. Unity in Spain Having learned from the Austrian events, the Spanish workers on Oct. 4, joined in a general strike and revolutionary uprising through- out the country against the institu- tion of the Lerroux-Roubles fascist regime. The fight was carried on under the leadership of the united front of Socialists, Communists and Syndicalists in the Workers Alli- ance, but because of great weak- nesses of the Socialist Party pro- gram, as well as because of anar- chist betrayals, the workers were defeated. More than 5,000 workers were killed. Sixty thousand were imprisoned.

The aim of the assassination, was to set fire to the fuse of the whole intricate bitter conflicts in the Bal- kans so that it*could set off a new world slaughter. All of the imperialist powers in- creased their war budgets far be- yond any figures ever known in so-called peace times. The biggest budgets were those provided for war preparations in the United States and Japan, with fascist Germany coming next. e While the imperialist bandits were increasing their war prepara- tions, striving for a new world ex- plosion to propel them out of the crisis, the Soviet Union worked for peace. In every ‘langerous war sit- uation, the Soviet Union stood as a bulwark for peace struggling against the capitalist war makers, ul their contradictions to block their war moves. In this situation, the Soviet Union, upon invitation of 34 powers, joined the League of Nations. Ger- man fascism and Japanese impe- rialism had been forced out through their conflicts, changing the rela- tions in the League of Nations.

Vea 'ONSIATSKY’S interview dealt with the assassination of Kirov, The reporter concluded that Von- siatsky’s whole life, as well as his wife's fortune, were devoted to over- throwing the proletarian dictator- ship in the Soviet Union. “His money (he really means her money), his every minute and his every energy are directed toward the overthrow of the Russian Com- ae government, Mr. Vonsiatsky said.” How the fascist proposes to do it is also made clear by Vonsiatsky himself in his official organ “The Fascist,” extracts of which were re- printed in the Daily Worker. Von- Siatsky instructs his cohorts to enter a Sennett Da corer MI munist leader wherever he is to be found; to blow up factories, rail- roads—in short, to slaughter and destroy wherever possible in order to impede Socialist construction and to help the imperialist plot for a war of intervention. “We shall wait until Russia is involved in war with some country,” Vonsiatsky declared in his inter< view. The interview took place in what the reporter describes as the “gun room.” This is a specially built ar- senal in which Vonsiatsky has stored machine guns, rifles, hand- grenades and other arms. Vonsiat~- sky feels very good over the killing of Kirov, and has nothing but kind words to say about Trotzky, while he pours out his venom against the Soviet Union for executing 114 ad- mitted terrorists helping the forces of Vonsiatsky and others to\“over- throw Cmmunist rule in Russia.” ONSIATSKY, while he declares his main job is to destroy Com- munist rule in the U.S.S.R., offered his services to the American textile bosses during the last general strike to help break the strike. It was Vonsiatsky’s fellow strike- breakers in the Soviet Union, who thought by slaughter they could help bring on the imperialist war of intervention that Vonsiatsky wants, who were executed by the workers’ fatherland. Though Vonsiatsky did not tell the reporter all of his little secrets on the activities of the white guards in the Soviet Union, we are able here to give some of the instruc- tions, approved by the Fascists, end of the 1922 Naval Treaty, abro- gated by Japan, after it discovered | it could not be used to contain the | conflicts between Wall; Street and itself in the Far East. | Viewing the Roosevelt. government | driving to war for the control of | the Chinese markets, through the) construction of the greatest. warship building program, the Japanese in- sisted on naval equality. | War, imperialist-inspired war for Standard Oil, and the the British oil magnates, continues in the Gran.
