organization of a new party should
await developments"
In this betrayal by the labor Of
ficials the Socialist Party played the
role of accomplce. The Workers
Party at that time did not recognize
the great significance of this confer
ence, and did not send any delegates
to Chicago.
The labor officials would have pre-
ferred to forget the Conference for
Progressive Political Action entirely,
but the masses again forced them to
act. The tremendous strike move
ment of the summer of 1922-the
most gigantic known in the annals of
the American labor movement-and
the brutal intervention of the gov
eminent, the Daugherty injunction,
the use of the army against the work
ers, filled the masses with wild bit
terness. Millions of workers de-
manded the forging of a political
weapon, demanded the Labor Party.
The labor officials were forced to con-
vene the second convention of the
Conference for Progressive Political
Action in Cleveland on December II,
1922. And extraordinary enthusiasm
of the masses greeted the Cleveland
convention. Through labor and
farmer officials no less than three
million organized workers and finn
ers were represented in Cleveland.
The convention was completely
dominated by the officialdom, and it
was therefore inevitable that it
should turn into an enormous be-
trayal. A shilly-shally center-the
Chicago Federation of Labor, the
Farmer-Labor Party, the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers, waged a
feeble fight, but it was simply steam
rollered. The left wing, the repre-
sentatives of local unions and the
Workers Party were not admitted
The motion to form Labor Party
was defeated by vote of 81 to So.
The Socialist Party was once more
the most useful accomplice in the
burial of independent political ac-
ton of workers. But the Workers
Party appeared for the first time be-
fore the whole working class as
dauntless and aggressive advocate of
the Labor Party idea.
The same high officials of inter-
national unions who called the Chi
cago and Cleveland Conferences have
called the third conference for st.
Louis. This st. Louis conference VII
not even play with the idea Of
Labor Party, but will openly declare
for the support of the Democrat Nc
Adoo, that is, the support of candi-
date of an out and out capitalist
party. The Chicago and Cleveland
conferences were born out of the de-
mand of the masses for Labor
Party, but they were convened by
the labor officials, to prevent the for
nation of Labor Party. The st.
Louis conference will be the closing
act of this drama of betrayal and
deception. The st. Louis conference
has nothing to do with the masses
any more. It is obviously nothing
but the political Vaccination of the
labor officials to sell out as many
hundreds Of thousands of workers as
they can to capitalist politicians. But
these conferences have not been in
vain. The Chicago conference taught
the masses that the Gompers clique

will never organize the Labor Party.
The Cleveland conference taught the
masses the other lesson that not only
the reactionary, but also the so-called
progressive labor officials of the in
ternational unions, will not organize
the Labor Party. The st. Louis con-
ference will teach the masses the
third lesson, about retrogressive pro-
gressives. It will show that all these
labor officials are hopelessly bound
up with the capitalists and with the
capitalist parties.
St. Paul-The Advancing Radicals
The May 30th convention in st.
Paul will be gathering of all truly
progressive, truly radical and truly
revolutionary elements of the Ameri-
can labor movement. The st. Paul
convention viii at the same time be
mass gathering of exploited farm
ers. The entire story is told by one
fact-in the St. Louis convention the
trade unions are represented by the
officials of the interna tional unions,
while the delegates of local unions
will not be admitted at all. In st.
Paul organized labor will be repre-
scented by delegates of local unions,
and the international unions as such
viii have five delegates each. st.
Louis will be the field of betrayal by
labor officials. st. Paul will be the
field of battle Of the rank and file.
The aim of st. Louis is to bind the
workers more closely to the capital
lists. The idea of st. Paul is to or
ganize the workers for independent
political action, against the capital
lists.
May 30th, 1924, in st. Paul, would
be impossible without July 3rd, 1923,
in Chicago. The July 3rd conven-
ton and the creation of the FEEDER
ated Farmer-Labor Party denoted a
declaration Of independence of the
American working class, meant the
beginning of the formation IF a ma
tional political party of workers nd
working farmers. The Federated
Farmer-Labor Parry contains today
only part of the militant workers
ana farmers, but it is legitimate
child of revolving masses. It was
born of the discomfort created by the
crisis of 1920-21. 1t was born Of the
militant. spirit and bitter S Struggle of
the summer of 1922. 1t was born of
the frightful bankruptcy of the farm
ers. It was born of the dis'llusion-
ment which followed the betrayal by
the Cleveland conference and the
failure of the Non-Partisan League.
The May Both convention will be
the continuation of the July Bird con-
vention. 1t will take IN the idea of
Labor Party on a national scale and
will continue to build it up, with
larger masses, opening up greater
possibilities. The historical signific-
ance Of the May S0th convention will
be that it will be an organization on a
national scale for nationwide ac-
ton. Without national crystalliza-
ton, the various city and state Labor
Parties are doomed to disintegration.
The history of the American labor
movement is full of tombstones of
local Labor Parties which died pre-
mature death.

Northern Cities
Ask Low Freight
Grain Rate Arbiters Told
Crop Comes From This
Area.

Representatives OF Sioux City and
South Dakota grain firms were heard
Wednesday by members OF the Inter
state Commerce commission in protest
against the increase In freight rates
on wheat from northern markets to
Texas.
Freeman Bradford OF Sioux City
argued that since most of the grain
sold by Kansas City to Texas was
raised north OF Omaha and Des
Moines. It is right to retain the old
rates. which give preference TO the
markets nearer the source OF the
grain. II. C. Wilson of the Sioux
City Grain exchange also presented
this view.
Raymond L. Dillman, attorney gen.
erai OF South Dakota. and c. A. Carr
of the same state. protested against
increases from their state to the
south. Lee Kuempel of the Mime.
apolis Chamber OF Commerce. and
A. B. Ayers, travelling manager for
Cream Of Wheat. took the stand
Wednesday afternoon to represent the
Minnesota grain metropolis and will
make common cause with Omaha
against the increase In rates.
The proposal Of tho railroads means
an increase OF G cents per 100 pounds
on coarse grain.
