New Sacco-Vanzetti
Appeal Bill Filed
in Massachusetts

DEDHAM, Mass, Nov. 3d. The
first of five bills of exceptions in the
case of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo
vanzetti have been filed in Norfolk
country superior court. The excep-
lions were taken to procedure in the
recent hearings before Judge Webster
Thayer on five motions for new trial
of these men convicted In Thayer's
court for numbering paymaster and
guard at South Braintree in 1921.
Thayer brushed aside new evidence OF
Importance and would not heed the
discrediting of state witnesses in the
new trial hearings so that these two
workers who have always maintained
their innocence and that prosecution
was frameup must continue their
fight thru the state supreme court.

to stay there for long, long time to
come.
There is a reason for this which Is
not stated in the majority thesis, but
which runs behind the whole argu.
ment of the thesis. This same reason
explains the desire OF the majority TO
abandon the slogan for "a class Farm.
er-Labor Party" and substitute for It
directly against the LaFollette move.
ment the slogan Join the Workers
Party" It is the majority theory
that the Labor Party in the United
States must of necessity be broad,

tho 1t united a half million workers
and exploited farmers, was taboo for

Of the c. e. c.. majority there is the
view that the LaFollette movement is
1.-THE broad, all-inclusive Farmer
Labor Party That is the basis for
abandoning the united front Farmer
Labor Party policy. That is the basis
for raising the slogan Join the Work
ers' Party" against the LaFollette
movement It would be a correct pol
icy il in the LaFollette movement we
had the Farmer-Labor Party Of the
United States. That this is the case
the C. e. G. majority dare not say.
Aoainst "Folded Hands" Policy.
The minority declares, that it is not
creditable for Communist Party to
fold its hands and let the workers and
exploited farmers, who are resting
there temporarily, remain in the La.
Toilette camp. That we must con.
tinue to combine the slogan For
class Farmer-Labor Party" with the
slogan "Join the Workers Party"
That by raising the issue Of class
party Of workers and exploited farm
ers against the LaFolIette movement
we will be welding the strongest
weapon against that movement, and
for the developing Of the political con
seriousness of the workers and poorer
farmers. That in conducting such
campaign For a Glass Farmer-Labor
Party" we will continue contact with
the masses who are moving in that
direction and that in participating in
the fight with them we will have the
best opportunity to raise the slogan
Join the Workers Party" and to

Philadelphia Open
Forum is Workers
Center of Education

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 80. - Con
sidering the great interest that is be-
ing shown by the Philadelphia work
ers in the Workers Party Open Fo,
rum it promises to become a real
center of education for the advance
ment of working class interests.
William Weinstone Of New York,
addressed the second meeting of the
forum on "The Labor Government of
England VS.. Soviet Government of
Russia" He made careful analy.
sis of the nine months of administra-
ton and showed that during all that
time not a single bill was introduced
in parliament that would interfere
with the domination of the capitalist
class over the working class. No leg
islation was put into effect that would
increase the standard OF living of the
workers or relieve the unemployed
and otherwise be in the interest OF
the workers. He drew the conclusion
that it was nothing other than con.
tinuation of the former Baldwin i'm
perialist policy. He further showed
how different was the situation in
Soviet Russia, how the proletarian
dictatorship had successfully served
the interests of the working class and
today is stronger economically and
politically than II had ever been in
the seven years of its existence.
During the discussion one OF the sur.
vivals of the S. L. p. Silver by name
lried to show by quoting Engels' in
PRODUCTION to Marx "Class Struggles
in France 1S4S-1S51" that the workers
will get into power by legal means
Weinstone explained that the docu
ment quoted from was distorted by
Eduard Bernstein who published Il
originally and furthermore a very i'm
portant part of the document was
omitted which completely refuted the
idea of legalistic emancipation. This
was made public by the Marx-Engels
Institute OF Moscow.
On Sunday, Nov. 80, Lovestone, who

By EARL 3. sRowpER.

In the thesis of the Central Execu-
tive Committee, on the tasks Of the
Workers Party (printed in the DAILY
WORKER Nov. 26), the majority takes
the position that the Workers Party
is itself the political leader Of the left
wing in the American labor move
ment.
The thesis Of the minority (printed
in the DAILY WORKER Nov. ~, on
the contrary, declares that it is only
under the banner Of a "class farmer
labor party" that we can mobilize "the
left-class-party bloc" and thus again
establish contact with the trade un-
ions and with the organization of the
poorer farmers"
Here is a definite issue. Is the left
wing of the American proletariat en-
tirely leaderless? Is it impossible for
the Workers Party to lead this left
wing except by first organizing it in
TO a non Communist farmer-labor par
ty? The C. E. G. majority says: mol"
The Workers Party has already estab-
hshed itself as the leader of the left
wing. The minority says: "Yes!"
They think the Workers Party stands
alone and naked unless it has the Gov
ering of a farmer-labor party, left
class-party bloc" (whatever that isl
with which it will beguile the left
wing into following it. Which is cor
rect?
Do We Need a Farmer-Labor Party
to Lead the Left Wing?
The left wing is that section Of the
working class which understands, de-
finitely enough to fight for its imme-
date aims, that it has bitter and
implacable enemy in the capitalist
class, and that only thru uncomprom-
Using struggle is it possible to win i'm
provements in the lot of the workers
and strengthen the working class for
future struggles. In the trade unions
it is that section which follows the
general line Of the R. 1. L. U. and the
Trade Union Educational League, the
line of class struggle and against class
collaboration.
Does this left wing follow the poll
teal leadership Of the Workers Par.
ty? Does it support the Workers

Discussion of Our Party's Immediate Tasks

the Workers Party. II is impossible
for farmer-labor party, without de.
finite revolutionary principles, to lead
a left-wing struggle. If it argued that
the Workers Party will give it the
Communist backbone-what then is
the use of the farmer-labor party if it
contributes nothing? The masses are
not in it, so it cannot contribute mass
and volume. About all that farmer
labor party created by the Workers
Party could possibly add to the strug-
gle would be some additional illusions
that would have to be destroyed be-
fore its members would be really left
wingers.
Workers Party Alone Leads and
Strengthens Left Wing.
In short, the more we examine the
arguments of the minority on this
point of left-wing leadership, the more
definitely must we conclude that it is
not only incorrect-that would be bad
enough--but that it betrays a funda-
mental misconception of the class
struggle, of the process Of the revolu-
tionization of the masses, and of the
role of the party therein. And not
only that-it betrays also complete
lack of confidence in our party, in its
ability to stand openly before the con-
scious workers as well as before the
masses-winning their confidence and
the leadership of their struggles on the
merits of it's superior knowledge and
program, its more militant fighting
spirit, its greater practical ability to
organize the struggle.
The Workers Party has won its
place as the party of the class strug-
gle in America. BY that fact it has
won leadership of the left wing of
the American proletariat. 1t does not
need a cloak-of-many-colors, whether
it be called "farmer-labor party" or
whatnot, to hold and widen this lead
ership. What it needs is better or
ganization in its own ranks, the
transformation on the basis of shop
nuclei, the more complete assimilation
of the principles of Leninism, and
moreover more-practical activity
under its own name and on the basis
of the united front in the daily strug-
giles of the working class. The minor
ity is wrong. The thesis of the Cen
trail Executive Committee is correct.
1t points the road upon which must
travel the Communist movement in
America.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-12-01
THE WORKERS PARTY is THE
LEADER OF THE LEFT WING

Party as the Workers Party?
Yes, it does. True, this left wing
was the backbone of most of our
farmer-labor parties in the industrial
centers during the past two years. But
we did not find all these elements
there. We took most of them in with
us. The left wing Of the industrial
proletariat went into the farmer-labor
parties largely under the leadership
of the Workers Party. They will go
into farmer-labor parties again, if we
advise them to do so. But they are
not inclined at all to force us to or
ganize a farmer-labor party for them
as the price of our leadership. They
will follow the Workers Party under
its own name just as readily indeed,
many portions of the left wing with
even more enthusiasm, as was proved
in the New York campaign where
thousands of dollars were donated by
unions for the w. P. campaign, more
than was ever forthcoming for farm
er-labor party.
Do We Need a FL. p. to Widen the
Left Wing?
Must we have a "left-class-bloc"
party, farmer-labor party, a non
Communist party, in order to widen
the left wing?
No, says the majority thesis. The
C. E. c. of our party does not believe
that such protective coloring, neces-
sarily evasions of primary questions
Of the class struggle, will widen and
strengthen the left wing. Only by
the most active organization and lead
ership of the left wing by the Com.
munists, and the launching of strug-
giles for definite immediate demands
(shop committees, amalgamation of
the unions, resistance to wage cuts,
unemployed councils, etc., can the left
wing extend its influence and, at the
same time and as a consequence,
strengthen the influence of the Work
ers Party. Recruits to the left wing
are not won on the basis of abstract,
organizational slogans, such as "for a
labor party; rather they are won in
the fight for immediate protection and
betterment of the workers, in the
trade unions and out, for political and
industrial demands.
! This struggle can only be led by

THE LOGIC OF THE MAJORITY THESIS

ing in their political conscious
ness, we will win their conf.
dence, establish our leadership, draw
these masses closer to us and in the
process of working and fighting with
them we will draw the best elements
into our party and thus build the
Workers Party. Our policy had a
two-fold purpose, to further develor
politically those workers and farm.
ers in whose minds the idea Of indie
pendent political action was growing
and to build our party.
Workers Learn Of Our Party.
For us this policy was a success
Our party became a political factor
in the United States thru its united
front Farmer-Labor Party Policy. Our
activities in putting into effect this
policy brot us before the masses, our
party became known to the workers
and exploited farmers. We gained
prestige and leadership.
What are the facts now?
The thesis of the majority of the
e. E. c. agrees with the viewpoint OF
the minority thesis that the future in
the United States-not the distan'
future, but the immediate future
holds continued and new expressions
of the workers and exploited farmers
and as consequence even more in
tense class struggles than in recent
years.
In other words the majority thesis
agrees that the conditions which ere
ated the movement for Independent
political action by the workers and
exploited farmers will continue, that
these conditions will even be intensi
fed And what is the logical deduc
ton from this? The deduction of the
majority thesis is, the movement for
Independent political action by the
workers and exploited farmers is dead
Their argument is, all the conditions
which create a movement for indie
pendent political action by the work
ers and exploited farmers will prevail
in an intensified form, but there will
not be any movement for independent
political action and therefore we
must discard the slogan "for class
Farmer-Labor Party That is the
logic" of their thesis
The minority of the c. E. C. de-
