MICHIGAN GETS
COMMUNISTS ON
STATE BALLOT
BY CYRIL LAMBKIN.
Especial to The Daily Worker)


DETROIT, Mich, Sept. pa
The Workers Party goes on the
ballot in the state of Michigan.
Saturday, Sept. 10th, the state
convention of the Party was
held in the House of the Masses
in Detroit, at which IS electors,
and also candidates for secre-
tary of state, attorney general,
auditor general and state treas
urer were nominated.
The convention also ratified
the national platform, adopted
a state platform and Endorsed
the candidates for president
and yice-president, comrades
Foster and Gitlow.
No Candidate for Governor.
Because the Michigan law provides
that candidates for governor, lieuten-
ant governor, and U. S. Senator must
file their petitions bearing three thou
sand signatures thirty days before the
primary elections, or about the 10th
of August, the party will not have
candidates for those Offices on the
ballot. The time between the decision
of the party to go into the campaign
under its own banner and the 10th OF
August was too short to mobilize the
membership for the task.
The nominees for the state Offices
are as follows: Secretary of State,
Herman Richter; Attorney General,
Cyril Lambkin; Auditor General,
Aaron M. Katz; State Treasurer,
Pauline Finnila. The state central
committe was also elected. It's Of
ficers are: Chairman, Cyril Lambkin !;
Secretary, William Reynolds; Treas
urer. Pauline Eiges.
The state platform follows:
THE STATE PLATFORM.
The Workers Party of Michigan
declares its adherence to the princi-
pies and platform of the Workers
Party of America. 1t recognizes
that thruout the ages Struggle has
gone on between the owning class
and the propertyless class, and that
the owning class has always been
organized politically and used its
political power to keep the working
class in subsection. The so-called
democratic forms OF government

B. & 0. PLAN
UP TODAY AT
|. A. M. MEET
Militants Rallying All
Their Strength
tspeoIaI 70 The oaIIy Worker,

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. a.
What will undoubtedly occasion
the biggest fight between the
reactionaries and miIitants at
the convention of the Interna-
tionaI Association of Machinists
here, will be the Baltimore &
Ohio plan which is coming up
for action at Thursdays ses-
sion.
Delegates everywhere are dis
cussing the arguments of the
progressives against the class
collaboration idea OF. the b. a a. o.
proposition and it is expected
that Johnston will sweat blood
in his attempt to ram his infa-
nous scheme down the Threats
of the rank and file.
B. G. o. Plan A Failure.
All indications point to the correct
ness of the progressives' assertion
that the B. & o. plan would destroy
the machinists' union. 1t is pointed
out that there are absolutely no dele.
gates from the local of the Glenwood
shops where the plan is already in eff
feet. 1t is also evident that all the
locals on the b. &. o. la;lrcad are ex-
tremely small and that most of the
workers there are in a disorganized
condition.
The militants have termed the plan
the "sweat shop under union protec.
tion," since it obliges the union to
work its members up to a high speed
in order to insure an efficient and suf-
ficient profit for the employer. It de-
stroys completely the working class
character Of the union and transforms
lit into an adjunct for profit manufac-
turing Of the bosses efficiency ma,
chine.
The plan is generally credited for
its authorship to Otto Beyers, Jr., a
captain in the ordnance department
of the army, and is regarded as one
of the most pernicious instruments in
favor of the capitalist that has yet
been manufactured One of the
points claimed in its favor is the fact
that it brings steadier employment.
But the militants show that no such
thing is true. The B. & o. railroad
is now manufacturing its own brake
shoes, building locomotives and roll
ing steel This lis an attempt to
stabilize employment on the railroad
and secure cheaper equipment. But
the worker in the contract shop is
cheated out Of just the amount that
is added TO the B. e. o. worker. thus
robbing Peter to pay Paul. and leav-
ing the workers in general without
any advantage in the matter. Or else
the contract worker, not having any
employment in his shop, leaves It and
goes to the railroad shop, thus max
ing no change in jobs. Instead of or.
ganizing the many non-union contract
shops as is urged by the progressives
in their program for organizing the
unorganized, the officials Of the I'M
ion have succumbed to the bait Of the
cooperation scheme
Joint Meetings a Fraud.
The Joint meetings Of workers and
bosses is also a fraud. An investiga-
ton Of a number of items taken up at
a typical meeting proves this conten.
ton. The question Of opening an ap.
prentice school was referred to the
district master mechanic but no ad.
vice was received. The condition Of
the toilets was referred to the divis.
ion engineer for handling and lis be-

Campaign Reaching Masses.
This campaign is remarkable
/ for the fact that great masses of
workers, as seldom before, are
interested in political issues.
Not since 1912, when Roosevelt
bolted the republican party, and the
socialists made a widespread cam
paign which netted them a million
votes, have the masses of the work
ers been so deeply stirred or so po-
litically responsive.
At this suspicious moment our
party makes it's debut as a real po-
iitical champion of the oppressed
masses in the present election
struggle, against the combined forces
of capitalism, represented by Cool
idge, Davis, and LaFollette. With
the masses in a politically receptive
mood, the many and various speakers
of the old parties and the LaFollette
movement, are appealing to the out
ragged workers to continue and main
tain the capitalist system of exploita-
ton, the system that is responsible
for Teapot Dome, and Wall Street,
which are being inconsistency de-
nounced by Davis and LaFollette.
Bring Message Of Communism.
To expose this system in it's true
light, and the two republican and one
ldemocratie lawyer candidates who up
hold it, is our prime object. To has
ten the end of capitalism, and to bring
the message of Communism to the
workers, this series of tours has been
arranged for our prominent party
speakers. These speakers are fully
capable of dealing in a revolutionary
manner with the Issues of the present
election campaign. They will con-
vince many, as no other medium of ex-
preston can, that the only answer to
the dictatorship of Wall Street is a
dictatorship of the workers,
The effect of the campaign on the
party, of this large number of addi-
tional speakers and meetings, will be
to arouse the spirit of our member
ship to the highest possible pitch of
revolutionary enthusiasm. That will
have the effect of putting much add.
tional life into the campaign, also to
enlarge the scope and extent Of our
influence with ever larger sections of
of workers. Some districts that have
not, in the past, been able to main
tain a number Of party speakers, will
now have this opportunity.
Following is a complete list of
speakers dates in the various party
districts:

HUTCHINSON IN
AUTOCRAT RULE
AT CONVENTION
Carpenters Object to
One Man Sway
lspeeIaI to Ths Daily worker


INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. "a
Open dissatisfaction is develop
ing among rank and file dele
gates to the convention of the
United Brotherhood of Carpen-
tiers and Joiners over the auto
cratic ruling of the convention
chairman who is also president
of the organization, William L.
Hutchinson.
Many of the delegates are
openly calling him car, and
are talking of nominating an
opposition slate to that of the
administration, while disgust
with bureaucratic ruling rises
everywhere.
Shuts of Discussion.
An example of Hutchenson's rulings
was seen today when the committee
on rules reported. It was impossible
to hear the report since the chairman
spoke in an indistinct voice. One of
the points he read was that there
should not be any discussion Of poll
tical questions on the floor of the con-
vention. Hutcheson asked of there
were any objections, and then, in spite
Of the fact that delegates rose to get
the floor for discussion, he announced
that the report was accepted.
Another autocratic move was made
when Hutcheson appointed from the
chair the committees to take up the
reports made by the various officers,
instead CT having them elected from
the floor.
Much comment has been aroused by
the report of the general president
for the four years ending June 80,
1924. There is not single word said
about the necessity of amaIgamating
the building trades unions, yet eight
out of nineteen printed pages of the
report are consumed with the history
of the jurisdictional dispute as to the
right of the Brotherhood to have jur-
isdictional over metal trim"
The only possible note of progress
in the report is the announcement
that most of the membrs of the Anal.
gamated Society of Woodworkers, an
English union with branches in all
Anglo-Saxon countries, had finally
joined the Brotherhood This was &C.
complished not because of any partic.
ular desire ON the part of the Brother
hood officials to consolidate the
strength of the workers in the trade,
but merely because it meant more
dues coming into the general head
quarters.
AmaIgamation Coming Up.
A spirited discussion is expected
when the proposal of amalgamation of
the building trades unions, one of the
most important resolutions to be pre-.
sented by the militants at the conven-
ton, comes on the floor.
News boys selling the DAILY
WORKER in front of the convention
hall have been threatened with
beating for selling the paper. One of
them, who wore long pants, was
thrown off the sidewalks and forced
to discontinue selling the DAILY; the
other newsie was saved by his youth.
When Hutcheson was approached by
the youngster, and asked to buy the
paper, the newsie was showed off the
sidewalk and threatened by the pres.
ident of the union.
The DAILY WORKER will, how.
ever, not only continue to print re.
ports of the convention, but will go
on with the sale of the paper to the
delegates.
