nominee would be to destroy the
class farmer-labor party as a mass
organization"
The Lesson to be Drawn
As stated in the opening Of this
article, our labor party campaign has
been waged under very serious diff
fculties, due to the lack of more
vigorous and definite movement for
party of industrial workers and poor
farmers. Consequently, mistakes have
been made, many of them verging in
to opportunism. But there is fun
damental difference in the way the
present C. E. c. and the minority have
reached to these mistakes. The C.
E. c. majority went along with the
third party alliance, but now frankly
admits in their thesis that this was
a mistake. They also recognize such
opportunism as developed at st. Paul
More than that, they saw the oppor-
tunistic danger in making the cleo
tAOu C@AlpdlSu uuuSI Ju0 BANNER Oh TIE
skeleton national farmer-labor party,
so they promptly cut loose from it and
launched the Workers Party ticket.
Likewise, now the c. E. c. perceives
the opportunistic menace in contin-
uing the use Of the farmer-labor party
slogan when there is no mass SEN
timent behind it, so they would avoid
this disaster by dropping the farmer
labor party slogan.
But the minority are unregenerate
in their opportunism. They have in
itiated and supported every opportun-
istic development in the labor party
policy. They still support the Chi
cago split and the August thesis. They
did not, in their thesis, admit that
the third party alliance was a mis-
take. They supported fully such op-

BY EARL r. BRowDER.


THE minority in our party discus
1 sion, led by Comrades Lovestone
and Ruthenberg, pose as the defend
ers of the united front. But what
kind of united front are they think
ing of? What do they mean by a
united front on the political field
We can find part of the answer in a
paragraph written. by. Comrade Ruth
enberg in the Liberator for August,
1924, in which he says: s
"As there was not in the united
States any mass political Organiza-
ton of workers and farmers with
which the Workers Party could join
in common struggles over immedi-
ate issues, thus forming a united
front, it was the task of the Work
ers Party to create such an organ
ization on the political field"
There we have the minority theory
in a nutshell. If there are no nom
Communist political organizations of
the workers which we can approach
+ to offer united front, then we must
create such an organization, so that
we can thereafter form united front
with it. IS
Not a United Front, But Political
Self-Abuse.
OF course, this is not the united
front at all as the Comintern explains
that tactic. Comrade zinoviev said at
the Fifth Congress-
But comrades, history plays
pranks with this slogan (the united
'front.' as indeed it does with many
slogans. We adopted the tactics of
the united front as the tactics OF
revolution at time in history when
the struggle had become protracted.
/. Some comrades in our own ranks in
terpreted them as something totally
different, as the tactics of evolu-
ton. Of opportunism as against the
+. tactics of revolution ..-s. Some
comrades endeayored 10 interpret
them as an alliance with the social
democracy, as a coalition OF all
labor parties"
History does indeed play pranks
with slogans, but history was never
guilty OF such a prank as that spon.
