that it is a liberal capitalist third
party, and not a farmer-labor party
and raising the slogan of class Farm
err Labor Party and splitting these
trade unions away from the LaFollet-
te progressive movement.
(b) Wherever labor unions are affili-
ated with units of the LaFollette pro
gressive organization. our members
shall seek to become delegates and to
make in these organizations the same
criticism and raise the slogan Of the
"Class Farmer Labor Party" and to
split them away from the LaFollette
progressive movement.
(c) We shall oppose the affiliation
with the LaFollette progressive organ
ization of any unions not already af-
tiliated.
Cd In relation to the coming nation
al convention tentatively set for Jan
uary by the LaFollette progressive or
ganization, our policy shall be, that
wherever we have party members
in organizations affiliated and entitled
to send delegates, to have our party
members elected with instructions to
make the same criticism against the
LaFollette progressive organization
in it's national convention and raise
the slogan Of "Class Farmer-Labor
Party" in order to build left-bloc
and split it away.
(e) We shall mobilize all the class
farmer-labor elements with which we
have contact and which are now affili-
ated with the LaFollette progressive
Organization for the same campaign
against this as a liberal, third CAPT
talist party and not labor party and
to have them raise the slogan of a
Glass Farmer Labor Party" and to
split with the LaFollette-progressive
movement.
c. Our Industrial Work.
1. We endorse the new program
for industrial work prepared in collab-
grafton with the Red International of
Labor Unions. We particularly en-
phasize the necessity of the indus
trial department of the party carrying
out into actual struggles Of the work
ers the following points of this pro-
gram:
(a) Greater participation and the
establishment of our leadership in
strikes.
(b) Actual organized effort to or
ganize the unorganized. The shop
nuclei as the basic units Of the party
are an important step in this direc-
tion. The shop nuclei should be the
instruments for the creation of shop
committees which should be the basis
of the organizations formed.
(c)t Energetic taking up Of the
problem Of unemployment, and actua'
work in the trade unions in support
of our unemployment program.
(d) The raising of political slo-
gans in connection with all industrial
struggles thus directing these strug-
giles toward political detectives and
developing political action by the
workers.
2. The actual organization of the
industrial department Of our party has
not yet been achieved. In only very
few places is there an actual, func-
tioning organization of the industrial
department. We must remedy this
defect and create units Of the indus
trial department wherever we have
members in the trade unions and see
that these organizations carry on
regular systematic work in support of
our political and industrial program
8. In the thesis of the Communist
international our party is criticized
for its "supercilious attitude toward
the revolutionary unions formed paral-

must give more attention to the in.

4. The Industrial department of
the party must be modified in all the
party campaigns to give active sup
port to the party in all its work.
o. The Negro Workers.
l. The Negro workers of the
United States offer a special problem
for our party. The Negroes are
