E DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, JANUARY 8, 1935 | CHANGE ——THE-— WORLD! By MICHAEL GOLD ASHINGTON, D. C.—The National Congress for Un- employment and Social Insurance now in session is a historic landmark in the painful growth of the mind of the American worker. As I write these lines, Mary Van Kleeck is making an address to the delegates. There are over two thousand of them in the great auditorium coming from 36 states; there are a thousand visitors. How intently they listened to this keen and gracious woman who is the foremost social worker of America. She has gone far beyond Jane Addams and the Settlement House and Charity Relief people. Her opening sentence is cheered: “Security of livelihood must be made the leading aim and obligation of the American nation.” She does not believe this can come from above. It must be a People’s movement for security. This Congress, she tells the delegates, is the first national expression of such a people's movement. I have listened in on most of the caucuses this afternoon, repre- senting faithfully the confusion, the desperation and the hope of the Masses. The Congress is a great melting pot of ideas, and before it has ended these ideas will be clarified. * * Congress of Workers ‘HERE are delegates from over 300 locals of the American Federa- tion of Labor. They came here despite the red scare raised by Wil- lam Green against this Congress. Cowboys from Wyoming and Colorado, miners, seamen, and fur- riers, Negro share croppers from Alabama and unemployed architects are here. The Newspaper Guild has sent delegates, and so have the textile workers of North and South. Bricklayers and Home Relief investigators, machinists and domestic workers—this is a Congress of those who produce the wealth and culture of America, and are re- warded with breadlines. Herbert Benjamin made a masterly keynote address this morning, in which he said: “If the Congress on Capitol Hill were truly repre- sentative of the masses of America, our Congress would be unnecessary. But our experience in the past five years has proved to us that the Government cannot be depended on to act voluntarily for the relief of the starving nation.” One delegate is a member of the same Tammany Club as Oon- gressman Sirovich. He offered to take a delegation to visit his in- fluential friend, confident that the Congressman would endorse the Workers’ Bill for real unemployment insurance. The delegate will be given this chance to learn first-hand what an immense gulf separates @ capitalist congressman from a member of a workers’ Congress. * * * Why Have They Come? oN finds scores of Socialist delegates here and church people, Re- publicans and Democrats. the way here I saw many badges of the Masons and Elks in the lapels of delegates. What attracted them to this Congress that William Green has labeled another Communist: plot? They came, as Herbert Benjamin expressed it so eloquently, be- cause there is no longer any easy way out of the crisis for the people. They are losing their faith in Roosevelt’s smile. Painfully, tortuously, the American worker is finding his way to a united front on the life and death issues that concern him. Benjamin analyzed the capitalist manoeuvers to offset this mass trend toward unemployment insurance. He dissected Roosevelt’s works Program, which is really a method for avoiding taxing the rich, and making the poor pay for capitalist unemployment. He catalogued all the other hollow schemes—the Townsend plan, the Epic plan, the Wagner bill and the rest of the counterfeit radical schemes. The rich of America had adopted an old political tactic of ham- stringing a Workers’ movement by diluting it.into futility, How clearly Benjamin demonstrated this, in a model speech composed of clarity, good sense, and solid information. * * . Loyestoneite Hysteria y Kista is not a soap boxing Congress, It is rather sober, on a high intellectual plane, where concrete plans for future strategy are dis- cussed, and the united front is being advanced. The men and women here know, as Herbert Benjamin expressed it, that there is no easy way out, and they live in the shadow of a mounting fascism. Only & few Lovestoneites, staging provocations at some of the caucuses, in- troduced a hysterical note for a moment, They were allowed to scream and holler. It was a sickening ex- hibition. One of the tribe told the A. F. of L. caucus that they did not represent any real unions. Delegate after delegate arose indignantly. Most of them had never met a Lovestoneite, and at first thought these were spies sent by the Police to break up the Congress. They flung the lie back in the teeth of the slanderers; naming the unions that had sent them. A Democratic worker representing three Painters’ locals in a mid-west city wanted to take a punch at the Lovestoneite, but was restrained by the cool- headed chairman, Louis Weinstock. I thought it was all a helv; for it made every delegate at the caucus more determined to fight for unemployment insurance, When & vote was taken on the bill the A. F. of L. delegates voted unanimously for it. * * No Mere Talk-fest \NLY a perverted and hate-twisted mind, or only a police sabotager would say of this Congress that it is not representative of the American Labor Unions and unemployed. It is true the Communists were there, and why should they not be? Have they not been the dynamo of all unemployment relief in this country since they organized the first hunger march under Hoover which brought unemployment for the first time into the first pages of America’s newspapers? But 300 A. F. of L. locals had sent delegates, too, and I spoke to dozens of them from every part of the country. It is true they are progressive trade unionists, and fight the William Green gang of re- actionaries as no Lovestoneite does any longer. Does that disqualify them as workers? Many of them are prominent labor leaders in their own towns and cities. The story of the campaigns they Staged to get their mem- bership of hundreds of thousands to back the Workers’ Unemploy- ment Insurance Bill is a story in itself. One of the fine things about this Congress is that it is not a mere talk-fest. It is a product of a great campaign that has already educated great masses of workers In the realities of their situation today, Yes, they are genuine A. F. of L. men, I would like to reassure the slanderers and sabotagers. And they have begun to see that their wages will go down steadily, their unions be broken, their jobs made insecure, unless the relief paid to the unemployed does not make this a coolie nation.

His fight was understood at the | time by few outside his supporters. The majority of the leaders of in- ternational socialism accused him of incurable sectarianism, doctrin- airism, quarreling over phrases, fractionalism, etc. and repeatedly offered their good offices to “recon- cile” and “unite” the warring sec- tions—offers which were politely, but firmly, refused. It was a dificult path that Lenin chose; but he knew what he was doing, and that his line had nothing in common with sectarian- ism and doctrinairism, but reflected real understanding of the needs | of a revolutionary mass party. The event has proved his justifi- cation, To-day the Bolshevik Party that he built up with such minute and combative attention to every | detail of program, tactics and or- |ganization, is the largest mass | party in the world. aa Aer E central forms in which these differences crystallized and in which they have become well known throughout the world, was the form of Bolshevism and Men- shevism. The division of Bolshey- ism and Menshevism dates from the Secorid Congress of the Russian Social-Democratic Labor Party in 1903, although the issue was already showing itself in preliminary forms in the fight against Economism and against legal Marxism.

Self-taught, he exposed one of the most culti- vated minds of our time, a mind with a profound knowledge of history, and the social sciences, a mind expressing itself with vigor and logic. He came from a family of revolutionists, a family that had sacrificed lives for the cause. And the sacrifice had strengthened it. Like Lenin, whose brother's death had steeled his revolutionary de- termination, the sufferings of his persecuted family made Dimitrov only more resolute and fearless. He had his reward in the devotion of the Bulgarian working class, which again and again followed him in strikes and insurrections and res cued him from the police With the triumph of reaction in Bulgaria, Dimitrov had to go into exile, where, however, his revolue tionary work did not slacken even for the needs of recuperation. He kept in constant touch with his comrades in Bulgaria; he partici- pated, powerfully, in the work of the international revolution. Up to his arrest by the Nazis, he remained indomitably at work Then came the Reichstag Trial. Let the editors of the “Nation,” the sly journalists, the editorial mix- ers of confusion, who so cunningly try to identify Communism and Fascism to the American public, read the detailed account of the trial given in this book. Let them read the exchanges between Dim- itrov and Goering, between Dimit- rov and Goebbels, between Dimitrov and the prosecutor to see the dif- }ference. In their own court, a Com- munist in chains reduced the most powerful, the most cunning, of the Nazi hierarchy to impotent mouth- ings. The second half of the book, con- sisting largely of Dimitrov’s own words and concluding with his now classic defense speech, rises to great heights. For that alone the book becomes one of the outstanding volumes in recent revolutionary literature. The Workers School presents for its special feature this term a series of eight illustrated lectures under the general title “New Tendencies in Soviet Culture,” to be given by Professor H. W. L. Dana at the Workers School, 919 Washington St., beginning Wednesday, Jan. 23. ee Ne CLEVELAND WORKERS SCHOOL hs Questions and An party. To this task Lenin set him- self on his return from exile. By a decision of a conference of revolutignary Social-Democrats at Pskov, the three outstanding lead- ers in Russia, Lenin, Martov and Potressov, were mandated to go abroad to join the group of older leaders in emigration, Plekhanov, Axelrod and Vera Zasulitch, for the issuing of a central organ. This aim was realized by the publication from abroad of the Iskra (Spark) in 1900, From 1900 to 1903 the Iskra built up the party and its political line. On the basis of its work and con- nections it was possible to call a representative Congress in 1903, numbering forty-four delegates, of whom four were workers, from twenty-six organizations. This met first in Brussels, and then, driven from there by the police, in London. Bike T this congress the supporters of the Iskra overwhelmingly out- numbered the reactionary forces of the Economists and of the Jewish Bund (who were unwilling to enter a single centralized party). But a division appeared among the sup- porters of the Iskra. It is this divisiom that developed to Bolshe- vism and Menshevism, The Bolshe- viks, led by Lenin, at first together with Plekhanov, won the majority in the election of the Central Com- mittee and of the Editorial Board; hence they became known as “the majority men” (Bolsheviks); the Mensheviks, led by Martov, were the minority. In point of fact, the division was close. On one of the principal issues, that of the Party Statute, the Mensheviks won. And almost immediately after the Con- gress Plekhanov joined the Menshe- viks, Lenin was left in complete isola- tion in the leadership, had to resign from the Iskra, to begin a new journal, Vperiod (Forward), and to organize “Bureaux of the Majority” in Russia to maintain the Bolshevik organization. Through these in the beginning of 1905 the Third Congress was organized and held in London. The Third Congress was a fully Bol- shevik Congress, and laid down for | the first time with complete clear- ness through all its decisions the lines of Bolshevik tactics. What were the issues which div- ided the Bolsheviks and Menshe- * .| | bourgeoisie, and that the role of the | working class would be to strive 2. The relationship to the liberal bourgeoisie, The Mensheviks fa- | Vored alliance with the liberal bour- |promising to support the workers’ jdemands, The Bolsheviks, while ready to utilize all tactics accord- ing to circumstances, insisted on the necessity to expose uncompro- misingly the real character of the aims and reactionary role of the liberal bourgeoisie. 3. The conception of the party. The Mensheviks favored a more elastic form of party organiza- |tion, which would leave member- ship open to individual supporters of the program (isolated intellec- tuals, etc.) who were not directly |ing groups, but only worked under |their control; that is, in effect, to sympathizers who hesitated to face the consequences of direct revolu- tionary work. sisted that the party would only be the weaker for these elements, and must consist solely of members directly participating as responsible party workers in a party organiza- tion; only on this basis could the |party be an effective revolutionary, disciplined, fighting force, without weak, passive or vacillating elements. brains were some of the principal issues dividing Bolshevism and Menshevism in the early years. It will be seen that these issues al- ready contained in germ the essen- tial line of division between revolu- tionary socialism and reformism, revolution and the line of adapta- tino to capitalism. This division revealed its true character more and more com- pletely in the succeeding years. Menshevism developed to the line of “national defense” or support of imperialism during the War; to ministerial coalition with the hour- geoisie after the revoluti in March, 1917, maintaining imperial- ism and throwing the Bolsheviks into prison; and finally to armed counter-revolution after the Bol- shevik capture of power, when the Mensheviks joined the White camp of the bourgeois and monarchist forces in open war on the workers’ rule. This subsequent working out, step by step. of the whole character of Menshevism, which was in fact no peculiar Russian phenomenon, but is an international tendency, proved the correctness of Lenin's judg- ment of its character at the out- set.
