LABOR" LEADERS IN BAD.

Lexington, Ky.-Federal Judge A..

George l.. Berry of the International
Printing Pressmen and Assistants
Union of North America and his four
associate members of the board Of
directors must pay $165,000 to the
International and the costs of the suit
brought against him by Chicago Press
mems Union No. 3. The Chicago union
charged that Berry had invested union
funds in companies in which he had
financial interest. Suit was brought
against Berry in the federal court of
this district.
Judge Cochran also ruled that the
Chicago union is a member in good
standing of the International. Berry
and his associates, who had tried to
expel the local, were enioined from
interfering with the affairs Of the
Chicago union or from putting any
other pressmen's union there and also
from issuing members-at-large cards
Berry and the others were also EN-.

/ must everywhere take the initiative
and act.
The March rising of the United Com
munist Party of Germany was an ac-
| tion guided by revolutionary MARKHAM
considerations. We must carry out
partial measures even if they do not
end in final victory. Victory does not
come in one blow. The workers can
not be expected to become so ripe as
to be able to seize power at the first
onslaught by mere propaganda. Final
victory will inevitably be proceeded
by defeated partial risings.
| Today every movement which pre-
vents the actions of the masses Is op.
portunist. When q leader like Dau-
mig wished to postpone action in Ger
! many on the ground that the masses
lack training for it, he must be re-
garded as an opportunist.
Today when it is opportunism
certain frightfully cleft" Commun-
lists refuse to organize communist
mass parties, when they wish to pre-
serve the absolute purity" Of the
movement, and thus reduce the party
to powerless impotence. Today it is
opportunism, and Of a most dangerous
kind, (for it sounds Marxian) to pro-
claim as do Communist Statesmen"
| (Seratti, Levi) the watchwords:
"Spontaniety of the Masses "No
isolated communist actions, which
isolates us from the masses" and to
advocate tactics consisting in passive
attitude expectation Of miracles, post
ponement of action for some indef-
mite period, allowing the reaction
to take the initiative.
We must candidly confess that op-
portunism, which wholly dominates in
the Social-Democratic parties, is now
raising it's head in the Communist
Parties. True, the words may be diff
ferent, but the essence of opportun-
ism is everywhere the same; it tends
to put the communist parties and all
the workers on a defensive, which will
be both permanent and hopeless.
The conscious and consistant ad-
vocacy of action is the cornerstone Of
the offensive tactics of the commun.
ist parties.

GENERAL ELECTRIC CUTS
PAY.

Schenectady, N. Y, July 20.-~The
General Electric Company is putting
into effect wage cuts, one class at a
time, the reduction ranging from 10
to 80 per cent. In addition to making
wage reductions, the company Is con-
tinuing It's retrenchment policy by
laying off large numbers Of employ
es in alternate weeks or every third
week.
Plumbers and steamfitters, who have
been receiving 70 cents an hour. will
be cut this week to 80 cents an hour.
This Is one Of the largest reductions
made at one time at the plant. Other
crafts, including mechanics In the
machine shop and electrical workers
are subjected to 10 and IL per cent
reduction. In some cases the wage cut
took effect last week.

(From "Moscow").
In number Of communist parties
of Middle and Western Europe the
main discussion turns on two ques-
tions-the relation between propa-
ganda and action, and the problem Of
waiting or of deliberate discourage
ment of mass actions. The contradic.
tions between these two contending
tendencies-the opportunist and the
revolutionary become more and more
acute. Whoever lays exceptional stress
on propaganda only and waiting only
is an opportunist. We must do our
utmost to combat these two kinds Of
opportunism, the right and the left
which pins it's faith exclusively on the
spontaneous rising of the masses
which is perpetually expecting the
masses to rise of their own accord
and which proclaims that the duty Of
the communist organization consist
only in placing itself at the head Of
the workers, mass risings, after they
have already broken out.
True, such situations may occur
as in Germany for instance, at the
time of the Kapp rising. But the Com.
inunist Party failed to turn this situa
tion to good account. At the present
time we witness a similar state oi
things in England, and we fear that
the small Communist Party of Eng.
land is not yet in a position to guide
that enormous Labor Movement.
However, if the Communist Party
only waits for such rare opportunities
it will thereby renounce it's leadership
1t is dangerous opportunism to take
the whole socialist movement on any
such miracles" We must fight al
such opportunist conceptions. W.
must emphasize that the most i'm.
portant task of all communist parties
at the present moment is to take the
initiative and act. By initiating ener
getic, deliberate actions, the party
cannot wait until it's propaganda sue,
ceeds in converting the last worker
to Communism, nor may they allow
the principles of their actions to b,
influenced by reactions. AT the present
stage of the economic and social crisis
of capitalism the communist parties

They Cry Economy
By DAVID CROTON.
Continued next week.

If there were any delusions in the
minds of the workingclass as to the
capitalist ist-class-characte of the gov
ernment, they certainly have been dis
PEELED by the recent actions of the
! government in. dismissals and re-
ductions in wageA of the clerks and
laborers. BY THEIR OWN ACTIONS,
they have spoken louder than any
words or arguments that the Com
munist Party has been re-making over
and over again-THAT THE Gov
EMINENT is BUT THE EXECU-
TIVE COMMITTEE OF THE CAPI-
TALIST, IN SESSION.
Under the guiseof ECONOMY, they
are throwing thousands of clerks and
laborers out upon the open labor
market to help their masters, the
capitalists, to fvrc- the working-men
into starvation wages. Throwing them
out so that they can be used to fight
their own brothers, their own class
for the few jobs that the capitalists
can run profitably. Just as hungry
animals fight among themselve, foi
the few crumbs that the keeper throw:
into the cage.
Yes, against the workers, the cap
italists with their corrupt government
have but one united front. On the
economic field, on the political field
in the churchs, in the schools, through
their prostituted press, they oppose
you, first with false arguments, ridi
cule, lies, distortions, labor fakirs
!, and paid spies, and when necessar.
/, they use The police, the militia, an'
when you revolt in large proportions
they use the Federal troops to crusl
you into submission.
Only when the workers becom
class-conscious viii there be anothe
story to tell. When they fight bacl
on every field, and in every direction
where they are attacked, under on
single leadership.
