ACTION ON RADIO
 WATTS FOR WINTER
Congress Cannot Take Up Matters
 Until December

Wilmington June 2, - Radio fans must wait at least until next winter 10 have their house put in order,
 Adjournment of congress, planned for June :, leaves the important White and Dill radio bills still wait ing for action. They won't be taken up again until congress rcassembles next December.
 C Reason for this deiay i, put to three conditions in congress, They are:
 1. The >scillating policy of the present session, in which little pro grcssive action has been completed.
 2. The various scandals and in pestigations that have occupied most of the time of congressman.
 5. The coming political campaign which has taken many members away from their regular duties.
 Conventions Call
 Now the leaders want to adjourn not later than June, SO that they may attend the conventions begin ming with the republican gathering in Cleveland on the 10th.
 If, by any chans, there can he no adjournment, there may be recess for month to allow for attending the conventions. But even after re- cess, little is expected nf the house and senate SO far ss radio legislation Is concerned.
 Lobby Orpn~cd
 Tn. White bill has been meeting with some opposition, through th" efforts Of a lobby working against any plan that would strengthen gov ernment control of the air. It is con- tended the radio industry is still in its infancy and therefore should moi be subjected 10 too much control by any government department.
 The Dill bill. permitting broad casting Of copyright music and other productions, is hcid in favor by majority of representative l}ui there is little hope Of getting its passage before December, say some Of the members,
 The jam that always occurs at the closing days of 2 session is expected to crowd out these bills.

try. will develop class party on
mass scale.
The Central Executive Committee Of
the Workers Party joins with the hun
dreds of thousands of workers and
farmers who support the June 18th
Convention in demanding that the So
cialist Party Immediately sever its
connection with and repudiate the G..
p. P. A. and the July 4th Convention
and that it accept the invitation of the
great movement Of farmers and work
ers who are taking their first stride
toward class consciousness, and send
delegates to the June 18th Farmer
Labor Convention.
The Workers (Communist) Party is
giving all its strength to building the
Farmer-Labor United Front to attain
this end. II urges the Socialist Party
to sever its reactionary connections
and to join in building the mass class
party which will fight the battles Of
the exploited farmers and industrial
workers.

The Workers Party in Action
South Slavs VIII
Present The "Army
Deserter" Sunday

The South Slavic branch Of the
Workers Party is holding its last TALL
of the season, this coming Sunday,
May is, at the c. S. P. S. Hall. 1926
w. IS street, at $3.50 p. M, continuing
thru the evening. Besides dancing to
thu tuna of the branch's own Banjo
Orchestra and other interesting items
on the program, the branch's own
Dramatic Club will present a very In
teresting play in three acts, called,
1.-THE Army Deserter." This play alone
is worth more than the meager adj
mission. Although it is only in three
acts, there are seven different settings
of the stage, and that includes some
very beautiful scenes.
Some OF the scenes are as follows:
Morning in the village. the harvesters,
singing folk songs, are leaving for the
fields; hunting (dog-like for recruits
for the kings army; in the army pris-
on; with the army deserter and anoth-
CT NOnfACb aWdAbiuB tACNullOus a uuulS
a society masquerade ball; in Buda-
pest gambling house; love scenes, etc.
The play abounds with many folk
songs and other pleasing melodies,
and with its beautiful scenes It should
prove of interest even to one who is
not fortunate enough to know the Ian
guage in which it is acted.
The players, altho not professional
actors. are by no means amateurish,
some of them having as much as ten
years experience on the stage.
The admission to the dance, includ-
ing the play is only so cents. The
place: C. S. P. S. Hall, 1925 w. 18th
street, near S. Racine avenue. The
time: Sunday afternoon and evening.
The play starts 2:3O p. m.
Comrades Of all languages are In
vited and assured Of good entertain
ment. Instead of going to bourgeois
theatre, come for once and enjoy some
real proletarian acting.

second convention in Cleveland, 1922,
that there was no hope of this group
creating political party or a party
which would represent the exploited
farmers and workers of this country,
that the movement for national con-
vention of those groups who were in
earnest in their desire to bring into
existence mass political party Of
farmers and workers took form. The
movement had its first expression in
the July 3rd Convention of last year
at which the Federated Farmer-Labor
Party was formed. Thru the efforts of
the Federated Farmer-Labor Party in
cooperation with the State Labor Par
ty, the June 18th Convention which
will bring about greater crystalliza-
ton of this movement and develop a
mass party with the support Of one or
two million workers has been called.
In spite Of the fact that the Con-
ference for Progressive Political Ac-
ton has repeatedly demonstrated that
its leaders will not permit the forma-
ton of a political party, and its enter.
ing into the political fields as an in
dependent political organization OF
this group, the Socialist Party still is
part of the Conference for Progressive
Action. The excuse Of the Socialist
Party for remaining in that organiza,
ton of which the express policy is to
vote for Republican and Democratic
candidates because they are good
men" or favorable to labor, is that
they still hope that the Conference
for Progressive Political Action will
form Labor Party.
This hope, if it exists, is an Illusion
The Conference for Progressive Pc.
litical Action has shown by all of its
actions that it will never form Labor
Party. Only few days ago the latest
manifestation of the policy OF the Con
ference for Progressive Political Ac
ton came to light in the state of Cali
fornia where all of the progressive
trade unionists, farmers and labor DO
litical groups have combined to call
convention for the formation of a
Farmer-Labor Party and the Confer
ence for Progressive Political Action
has issued a manifesto denouncine
this move and calling attention to the
fact that the American Federation OF
Labor Convention at Portland voted
against independent political action
In other words, the Conference for
Progressive Political Action lined UT
with Samuel Gompers for "rewardins
the friends and Furnishing the enemies
of labor" and the Socialist Party, by
its affiliation, endorses this policy.
1t has already become apparent, too
that the hope that the July 4th Con
vention of the Conference for Prog
ressive Political Action will follow a
different course, is due to disappoint
ment. 1t is quite apparent from the
statements of the leaders of the Con

% the National Executive Committee,
Socialist Party:
' There exists in the working class
movement in the United States today
an opportunity to crystalize in an or
ganized form the movement for indie
pendent political action which has
sprung out Of the intensifcation Of the
class struggle in this country which
followed the end of the war.
Thru their experiences with the gov
eminent since the end of the war,
millions Of workers and farmers have
begun to realize that the government
of the Republican and Democratic adj
ministration is an instrument of the
exploiters used to assist these ex-
ploiters in robbing the industrial work
ers and farmers and to maintain the
system Of exploitation as whole.
The Railway Labor Board, the
Daugherty Injunction, Coronado de-
cision Of the Supreme Court, the use
y a police and troops in strikes as never
efore. the wider use of injunctions
Y 4sainst strikers. have all had their
part in convincing the industrial work
.ers that the existing government is
their enemy. Similarly, the farmers,
millions Of whom have been bankrupt
ed thru the defiation policy of the gov
eminent, and who pay the high rail-
road freight rates, under the Esch-
Cummins law, and are Disseminated
against by the character Of the loan
and banking legislation passed by
congress, realize that the government
is always on the side Of their exploit
ers, and there is no hope that its &C
tons will benefit them.
These conditions have developed the
widespread movement for independent
political action by the farmers and
industrial workers thru Farmer-La
Dor Party. This movement has ex-
pressed itself in the formation of
many state Farmer-Labor Parties
which have combined to call the June
18th National Farmer-Labor Party
Convention. The call for the June 18th
Farmer-Labor Party Convention spe-
cifcally and decisively pledges those
who will participate to independent
political action, separate and distinct
from the old parties thru political
organization representing the farmers
and workers.
The movement which is represented
in the June 18th Convention was the
result of and gained its greatest i'm
petus thru the failure of the Confer
ence for Progressive Political Action
to realize the hopes of the farmers and
workers for Party which would fight
their political battles. 1t was not until
the Conference for Progressive Pc
litical Action had shown at its first
convention in February, 1922, and its

Open Letter to National Executive
Committee of the Socialist Party

ference for Progressive Political Ac-
ton that their purpose at the Cleve-
land Convention, even tho they may
endorse the candidacy Of Robert La
Toilette on a national scale, is to enter
into the state elections on the basis Of
the old policy of the c. P. P. A.; that
is. while on national scale they pro-
pose to support LaFollette as >anvin-
dependent candidate, on state scale
they will again call upon the workers
and farmers to vote for good" Re-
publicans and Democrats.
BY its continued affiliation and en-
dorsement of the Conference for Prog
ressive Political Action, the Socialist
Party endorses this policy. In sup
porting the G. p. P. A. against the
June 18th Convention, it takes its
stand against independent political
action.
Even tho the C. P. P. A. thru some
miracle were to enter into the polit-
ical arena as a political party standing
for independent political action, what
kind of party would come out of the
e, P. P. Al Certainly, the members
of the Socialist Party will not deny
that political parties stand for definite
economic interests. Does the c. P. p
A. stand for the economic interests
of the exploited farmers and Industrial
workers? Every one knows that it
does not. It's leadership belongs to
the aristocracy of labor. The LaFol-
lette group in Congress which it sup
ports is not the representative of
workers and farmers but of small bust
mess men, professional groups-the
petty bourgeoisie. Out Of the G. P. p.
A. there could only come petty
bourgeois Third Party, never Farmer
Labor Party standing for the class in
terests of the exploited workers and
farmers.
The Central Executive Committee Of
the Workers Party calls these facts
to the attention of the Socialist Party
and demand in the name of hundreds
of thousands of workers and farmers
who are supporting the June 18th Con-
vention that the Socialist Party i'm
mediately withdraw from the Confer
ence for Progressive Political Action
and support the mass movement of
workers and farmers for independent
political action thru class Farmer
Labor Party.
If the Socialist Party wishes to re-
tain any vestige Of right to call it,
self workers political organization,
it will give heed to this demand. To
day it is an enemy of the movement
for growing class action of farmers
and workers thru its support of the
@. P. p. A. which denies and opposes
such class action and by its policy
stands as an obstacle to the develop
ment of a great mass movement of
workers and farmers which, for the
first time in the history Of this coun-

Organization.
g. Should the June 18th convention
not be dominated by the class ele-

such a strong admixture of other than
representatives of industrial workers
and exploited farmers, so that the
party if formed would not be a class
party of industrial workers and farm.
ers, then we shall not make fight
