Moving Towards. Unity

This issue of the Toiler contains two import
ant news items which should not be overlooked.
One of them reports the election of a committee
at the Auto Workers convention to take steps
to bring about closer relations with the large and
growing number of independent unions. The other
is the resolution adopted by the Detroit branch
of the /. W. w. metal workers advocating unity
conference of all Independent industrial unions
in America for the purpose of getting under way
a real One Big Union. John Pancner's argument
should also be read carefully in this connection.
The independent movement Of militant labor
has already reached such proportions that, if it
is properly knit together in general industrial
union organization, it will constitute "a formidable
power at the very beginning. Such consolidation
will infuse all the units with new life; they will
gain strength from the amalgamation of rival Or
ganizations in the same industry and they will
set out on new campaigns Of organization, draw
ing into their folds thousands Of workers who now
stand outside. l4As93

The Albany Lockout

The five socialists who were fired out of the
New York legislature last spring and who were
all reelected last week by greatly increased major
ities have once again been called up to the bar by
the presiding officer Of the legislature given a
lecture and then told to "get the hell out of here"
Such brazen disregard Of the law and the consti-
tuition and the wishes of fifty thousand Sovereign
voters" is another hard blow to those easy-tofool
working people who are confidently looking for
ward to the great, day when they will deposit the
majority Of the ballots in the box and automatical-
ly draw out their emancipation from wage slavery.
They see that If the slot machine is to be manipul-
ated in this way, theslot machine revolution is not
going to work, out as they hoped and expected.
Some people regard this arbitrary action of the
New York assembly as a calamity; "a breakdown

FRIDAY, OCT. ], 1920.
IT H E ToILEB

Many important unions and groups of a
militant character still waging the hopeless battle
within the American Federation of Labor, will pull
out of that buwark of capitalism and cast in their
lot with the new organization Other revolving
craft unions which are not yet ready for the break
will be strengthened in their position and will
grow more insistent in their demands; while the
reactionary machine will be paralyzed by the
knowledge that the old betrayas and high-handed
suppression of the rank and file will be followed
by secessions and affiation to the rival body.
The greatest weakness of the independent
unions at present lies in their isolation from each
other; their failure, so far, to find way to make
the strength of all the strength of one. Pioneers
of the movement are alive to the constantly grow
ing power of the bosses organizations and see the
necessity of meeting it with consolidation of the
unions for united action. Comparatively small
bodies of workers, no matter how perfect their
program and preamble may be, cannot stand alone
Nothing less than the combined forces of all the
rebel workers can cope with powerful organiza-
tions of the master class.
A discussion of ways and means to bring
about this unity on the industrial field ought to
be an order of business at every meeting of the
progressive unions. The sincerity Of those who
talk Of One Big Union will be tested by their at
titude toward this practical and logical movement
to bring it into being
