I. That the interests of the work.
ers turnout the world are one.
2. That the international Socialist
Commonwealth can only be secured
by world organization of free peo-
plies, cooperating in the production
and distribution Of the worlds
goods.
8. That towards, this end, the I.
L. p. works for the most effective
action of the International Socialist
Movement to prevent war, abolish
CONSUMPTION and miIitarism, and
Iiherate subject peoples.
4. That the !. /. p. opposes the
exploitation of economically back
ward peoples by the more advanced,
and declare for relationship with
the Iess-developed races to prepare
them as speedily as possible for
self-goVernment.
5. That as a method to attain
these ends, the |. L. p. takes its
part In the struggle of the workers
to win freedom from the economic
tyranny imposed by the capitalist
class and capitalist state. 1t holds
that the best way of effecting a
peaceful change to Socialism is by
the organization of the workers po-
IiticaIly to capture the state power,
and industriaIIy to take over the
control and management of the in
dustrial machinery.
s. The I. L. p. recognize that
circumstances may arise when a
government or reactionary class
might attempt to suppress liberty or
thwart the national will, and it holds
that to defeat such attempts, dem
ocraey must use to the utmost ex-
tent its political and Industrial
power.
Demand Freedom of India.
In view of the fact that in India to-
day, reactionary government and
class is attempting to suppress the
liberty and to thwart the national will
Of the people as expressed thru peace
full constitutional action, by certifying
measures rejected by the elected rep
resentatives in the so-called National
Legislatures; by shooting down un-
armed men and women who assemble
together to demonstrate peacefully
against social. economic and political
suppression; and by wholesale arrests
without charge or evidence, of res
pectable citizens accused of conspir-
ing against the authority of the State,
the Communist Party of India calls
upon the Annual Conference OF the In
dependent Labor Party to uphold and
give force to its resolution of the con-
ference of 1928, by taking energetic
action against those acts on the part
of irresponsible authority. In view of
your position as the supreme govern
ing power in Great Britain today, we
call upon you to use the utmost ex-
tent of your political and industrial
power to put an end to these intoler-
able conditions prevailing in British
India
Preservation In India.
The Communist Party of India calls
the attention of the delegates to the
annual conference of the I. L. P. in
particular, to the fiagrant attempt now
being made on the part of the Indian
government to suppress the right Of
political organization for economic
ends on the part of the Indian work
ing-class. by damning it in the eyes
Of the law as Conspiracy to over
throw the sovereignty of His Majesty,
the King-Emperor," and by seeking to
make such action on the part of the
Indian working-class punishable I'M
der Section 121 and 121A of the In
dian Penal Code by death or life-im-
prisonment.
The Communist Party of India de-
sires to emphasize the fact that the
real object behind this attempt to
crush the legitimate right of Indian
labor to organize itself for political
and economic end is threefold:
Plot Against British Labor.
1. TO prevent the emancipation
Of the Indian masses thru their
own political and economic action
to achieve improvement in their
present miserable condition, and to
bind them perpetually to the chains
OF Imperial and native exploitation.
2. To maintain the present isola-
ton Of the Indian people from the
world International movement Of
labor towards full social. economic
and political emancipation from
capitalist slavery.
3. To prejudice the organization
OF a working-class party in India
by damning II in the eyes of the law
as "Bolshevik conspiracy and prop
aganda," thereby at the same time
prejudicing the negotiations now
proceeding between the British La
Dor government and the Russian
Soviet government to re-establish
normal and friendly relations.
