the creation Of powerful fighting in

The capitalist victory has given the
capitalist dictatorship increased con
troll of the governmental power, which
it will throw into the struggle against
the workers. This makes more neces.
sary than ever a united front political
struggle Of the workers and poorer
farmers. The Workers Party calls up
on both the industrial workers and
poorer farmers to join in the creation
Of a united front politically under the
leadership of the Workers Party by
uniting under the slogan For Glass
Farmer-Labor Party"
The Workers Party will, more than
ever before, give its strength to the
work of mobilizing the workers for
the united front political and indus
trial struggle against the capitalists.
It's aim will be thru such united front
struggles to united with 1t in common
struggles those workers who realize
the necessity Of class fight against
capitalism, thus bringing these work
ers into contact with and under the in.
fluence Of Communist leadership and
thus preparing them for entry into the
mass revolutionary party of the work
ers--the Workers (Communist) Party.

tatorship won in triumphantly elect
ing it's henchmen, Coolidge and Dawes,
shows that the struggle Of the workers
against the capitalist exploiters must
have as its leader a revolutionary class
party-a Communist Party. 1t is only
thru party with a program of action
against capitalism such as the Work
ers Party stands upon, that the work
ers can mobilize their power and win
this struggle.
The strengthening of the Workers
Party and its development into mass
Communist Party leading the strug-
giles of the working class is therefore
the most important task before the
working class OF this country. The
Workers Party calls upon all militant,
conscious, revolutionary workers to
join it in realizing this aim by joining
the Workers Party.
The Workers Party has consistently
fought to create a united front of the
workers and poor farmers, both on
the industrial and political field. On
the industrial field it has urged and
worked for the amalgamation Of the
trade unions into powerful industrial
unions. On the political field it has
endeavored to create united front of

forces of reaction in the recent presi-

Disciplined Members RejOin Party

GONE time ago. the Central Execu-
- tive Committee of the Workers
Party was obliged to expel forty-two
members of the Russian Branch No.
2, of New York City, for conduct I'M
becoming to Communists. A number
of the members in this group have
since seen the incorrectness of their
attitude from Communist standpoint,
and have designated their willingness
to repudiate their former position and
to again become members Of the party.
The statement of this group address,
ed to District Organizer of District No.
2 reads as follows:
Dear Comrades;
I'VE, the group of the expelled men,
bers of the New York Second Russian
Branch of the w. p. of A., having been
informed Of your decision in connec-
ton with our appeal for reinstate-
ment as party members, consider it
our Communist duty to accept all the
demands which are included in your
decision, as we understand that every
Communist must be punished for vio-
lation of party discipline, and, that it
s never too late to correct a mistake.
We hereby make the following declara
ton to all members of the Russian
Section of the w. p. of A.:
Comrades, you all know that few
months ago AZ members of the Second
Russian Branch in New York were
expelled from the party. The cause
of it was our resolution introduced
last year at the Russian District Con-
vention Of District No. 2. This reso-
luton thru party channels reached the
c. E. c. of the party.
"The c. E. c. having analysed this
resolution found that the part of it de-
handing reorganization of higher adj
ministrative organs and institutions of
the federation in favor of homogene-
Gus elements-is anti-Communistic,
and demanded that the resolution be
called off as such.
"In spite of this decision of the
party. AZ members of the branch voted

we're trying to justly their action by
declaring that resolution was only a
tactical step intended to reach the
broad masses Of non-partisan Russian
workers, and had the G. f. c. known
about it, they would not have expelled
us.
But when the secretary OF the par
ty, Comrade Ruthenberg. issued an
announcement officially in the name Of

of your boyhood when you arose
early and sneaked down to Smiths

eyes at the wonders of the "Masto-

There will be a parade today and
tomorrow in which all of the Cir
Gus folks will participate, with its
half hundred performers, its horses,
mules and dogs and its strange peo-
pie from far lands, and Mr.. Dutton
will quickly transform the stage OF
the Rylander theatre into replica
of a circus tent interior.
