Decentralization that the organiza-

Since women constitute but one fourth

strength of working women compared

The number. of working women or.
ganized in trade unions is not con-
slant factor. Two thirds of women in
industry, according to the women's
bureau at Washington, are continually
leaving industry because of marriage.
That proportion may also be assumed
for organized women, so that the con-
slant factor for organized women is
roughly 100000 with 100000 as per-

the 1000 is not altogether a con-

tons, openly join as members Of the
w. P. and act as standard bearers,
tactfully portraying the Communist
viewpoint, bringing the principles OF
the w. P. to the attention of an ever
increasing number of women and so
create sympathy and confidence in our
party and its leadership.
In every strike, our women must be
ready at a moments notice to organize
relief committees among strikers
wives and sympathisers and support
the strike thru the w. P.
Women W. P. members must sys-
tematically engage in the industrial
work and strive to draw industrial
women into the union and shop nuclei.
Women of little social contact re-
spond more freely when approached
by members of their own sex.
Working class housewives repre-
sent constant factor in society and
deserve serious consideration. En-
tirely ignored by the A. F. of L.,
greatly influenced by the church, they
are the conservative props of things as
they are. They not only exert re-
tarding influence upon their husbands,
they also exert a most reactionary in
luence upon their children. We must
rescue the children, thru an approach
to the housewives and mothers.
The housewives problems center
around prices. That interest should
be linked up with the organizational
Possibilities inherent in co-operatives
and civic clubs. There exist in many
trade unions women's auxiliary organ
izations, composed of workers wives.
These in reality are social clubs but
these clubs should be given labor and
political impulses. The T. U. E. L.
Ought to take it upon itself how best to
organize such women's auxiliaries for
the purpose of the class struggle.
Any plan regarding women's. work
must necessarily be in the nature of
an experiment. A real working plan
can only grow out of our experience
with work among women. We must
not study women as a sex but rather
as subdivision Of a sex. Each
grouping should be separately studied
: in order to adopt a more effective ap
proach.
General agitation thruout our press
should be started in the interest OF

women's problems in relation to Com.

methods best adapted for the drawing
OF women into the revolutionary ranks.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-11-15
BY JEANNETTE D. PEARL

Generally speaking the broad
masses of women may be CLASSIFIED as
a part of the unskilled labor supply
Of the country AS unskilled la
borers, the difficulty Of organizing
women becomes at once apparent. OF
the four million workers in trade UNI
ions, only a quarter Of a million are
women. The A. F. of L. calculates the
organizational strength of women at
per cent, to demonstrate how difficult
is the task of organizing women. This
calculation of the A. F. of L. is no
doubt brought into evidence to conceal
its own guilt in having sabotaged the
unionizing of women. AS NUnskilled
workers the A. F. of L. practically
made no attempt to organize women
while such of the skilled women that
sought membership in the A. F. Of L.
were excluded from many of the
unions as competitors, threatening the
job trust of the A. F. of L.
The discrimination against women
is not matter of sex as is contended
by the feminists, but is based on
economic grounds, the source of prac-
tically all Determinations. The in
creasing number Of women entering
industry, their attempt at organization,
make them a factor that must be
reckoned with, industrially as well as
politically.
Women are organizable. There are
over eight million women (of al
classes) organized in social and civic

tributed in checking the class solid
arity of women.
To draw working women into the
class struggle, the peculiarities arising
out Of sex differences chat does not
mean sex inferiority) together with
the social and political inequalities
must be carefully studied. An appara-
tus should be created to consider the
entire womans problem in its relation
to the class struggle, with the view OF
establishing closer contact with the
broad masses of working women, to
develope their social and revolution
airy psychology and to draw the class
conscious women into our party.
The Womens Bureau should be
made up of comrades in sympathy
with the work. The secretary Of the
bureau should sit at the executive SEES
sions of the G. E. c., or a member Of
the c. E. c. should be in the bureau.
All woman's work should be under the
jurisdiction of the Women's Bureau
subject to the approval of the G. E. c.
The functions of the bureau should be
to study conditions peculiar to wo-
mems activity, to carry on work OF
education, agitation and organization
among the broad masses of women
and to equip Communist women for
that task-a proper psychological ap-
proach. The women's work is not tC

Every branch should have wo

work should be rendered at all branch
meetings and all other subdivisions
! of the party. At every party confer
ence and convention women's worl
should be on the agenda of the day
In our national program of action
an eighth division should provide fol
woman's work.
The duties of the women's COMMITTEES
of the branches should be to study thu
local conditions of the district as the.
effect women and to make plans hov
to best serve the revolutionary move

should include industrial conditions in
cidqnt tn seq differences and discrim

tiles, problems effecting housewife
and mothers, the public school system
as it effects the children of the work
ing class, etc. All women of tn
branch must be modified for VIC

than one-third, of the total vote. Also
that in a few of these states LaFol-

cities of the east and middle west:
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-11-15

Almost four times as many workers
voted for LaFollette in 1924 than for
Debs In 1920. The breakaway move
capitalist parties and in the direction
of movement which the masses be-
lieve to be more their own is very def
mite. Putting together the concIu-
sions from each of these tables. we
are justified in saying: That the La
Toilette movement, effectively a
movement of the ELECTROMAGNETIC,
was not supported in the elections in
any large measure by the petty-bour-
geoisie, but by the workers of the east
and middle west and by the poor
farmers of the northwest.
Attic the achievements of the La
Toilette groups fall far short of their
expectations, yet the movement will
undoubtedly continue towards further
capitalization into a definite party.
1t will continue as an alliance be-
tween the biologists Of the petty
bourgeoisie and labor bureaucracy and
will be recognized and supported for
some time to come by large sections
of labor and poor farmers. What we
had in America until practically the
beginning of July as a farmer-labor
movement was completely swallowed
up by the LaFollette-socialist-G ompers
alliance.
The Workers Party and Its Tasks.
l reserve a fuller treatment for a
further article. Here the following
must be pointed out. The Workers
(Communist) Party succeeded in the
election campaign in bringing its mes
sage Of class struggle and Commun-
ism to wide masses of workers. Our
party established itself for the first
time in its existence, as the only party
OF working class struggle, as the only
incorporating enemy Of capitalism.
BY our election campaign we have
prepared the ground and ourselves for
the leading role in the class struggle
which we are bound to assume.
This must be followed up with
concrete program of action based
upon the everyday struggles of the
workers, in the spirit OF the United
Front tactics Of the Communist In
ternational. Our main line OF action
must be:
A United Front between the toiIing
masses and the Workers (Commun-
ist) Party for everyday struggle
against the strikebreaking govern
ment and against the LaFollette petty
bourgeoisie theology in the labor
movement.
Forward to the struggle!

LaFollette's average vote in these
states is 1912 per cent. In New York
and Illinois it was over IA per cent,
and in Ohio it was Is per cent. What
does it prove? 1t proves that large
sections Of labor in the industrial GEN.
tiers accept at present the political
leadership of the effectively petty
bourgeois LaFollette movement.
The switch in labor's ranks from
the old capitalist parties is seen more
clearly when we compare the vote for
Debs in 1920 with the vote Of LaFol-
lette in 1924 cast in the industrial
centers.

CASE AGAINST
CRUM DISMISSED

The State Supreme Court, in de-
cision handed down here yesteld day,
affirmed the Morton county district
court, which dismissed an action
brought by Bertha Janzen against c.
l.. Crum, former Mandan lawyer in
which she charged that Crum while
acting as special attorney general to
prosecute her husband, c. N. Jan
zen, for embezzlement accepted 500
from him and promised to keep Jan
zen out of the penitentiary. Janzen
however, pleaded guilty and was
sentenced to prison.
The court held that as matter of
law that such an agreement was
void "as against public policy" and
that money paid without duress or
undue influence in consideration of
such an agreement cannot be re-
covered" because parties both were
in the wrong. Decision was made

my purpose in calling this confer
enee and meeting is to discuss ways
and means of strengthening our par
tS in our state that we may con-
tribute our share toward demo-
cratic victory in November; to en-
dcavor to further a spirit of harmony
and unity among democrats, to dis
courage needless dissension within
our ranks. | trust we may place
principles and measures above the
political fortunes of individuals, and
not attempt to curtail or abridge the
right of any democrat to become a
candidate at the March primary. The
democratic party has always stood
for the primary election laws, which
the republicans seek to nullify-or re-
peal. The democrats Of this state
Rave an opportunity to do something
really constructive for our people
No party so genuinely represents
the interests of all the people. Con-
crcss is now in session and why
should not the democrats of North
Dakota make declaration of prin-
ciples, and let Congress and the state
and nation know where we stand on
such important questions as the
Fordney McCumber profiteers' tariff
which has almost brought a panic in
the agricultural states; and on the
st. Lawrence waterway project, the
Coulter loan plan. the N. D. confer
encc grain export plan, approved by
Secretary Wallace; an international

proposal and other important ques-
tions? These are more vital and i'm

who shall be the beneficiary of fed
eral patronage"
