In most Of these branches it has not
been possible to gain admittance for
a majority representative during the
party discussion, in others little or no
discussion took place as it seems they
were too preoccupied in preparing
to bring out all members for the mem
bership meeting to record their vote
and these particular branches wer
represented about 100 per cent. The
minority vote was furnished almost
wholly by these four big blocks. The

BY ARNE sWAREcK.

In yesterdays issue of the DAILY
WORKER, under the caption "The
results of the first membership meet.
ings," Comrade Ruthenberg has the
following to say:
Another factor which entered into
the results last Sunday was the
eleventh hour change in the rules Gov
ering the meetings, which denied
members not attached to the city cen.
trail committees in the cities in which
the meetings were held the right to
vote. This rule, disfranchisinu the
party members from nearby cities
was made In order to cut down the
strength Of the minority, particularly
In the Chicago meetings. In Chicago
even the members living In Pullman,
which is industriaIIy and geographic
ally a part Of Chicago, who were over
wheImIngIy for the minority position,
were denied the right to vote in the
Chicago membership meeting. The
votes Of the Pullman comrades alone
would have changed the result in the
ChIca9o meeting"
This may look quite convincing on
paper. but what are the actual facts {?
First, the central executive commit
tee combining the vote at each meet
ing to the members actually attached
to the respective city central commit
tees seems to have been a very ap.
propriate one, at least as far as the
Chicago meeting was concerned, in or
der to avoid duplication of the Pull
man membership vote which already
on December 26 recorded itself 3S to
5 for the minority position. Secondly,
1t will be noted that this vote. already
previously recorded in the DAILY
WORKER, gives the lie to the conten-
ton Of disfranchising of party mem.

the reconnaissance more consistent
with the interests of the working class
We are not afraid of bringing our.
tactics before the court of the many
millions of proletarians May the OPP
ponents of Communism come forward
in an equally open manner as the fol
lowers Of the r. /. l.. U. do and will
continue to do.
We ask, what is there in the pro-
posal which can be unacceptable for
an honest proletarian, no matter to
what tendency he may belong? If the
leaders of the Amsterdam Interna-
tional are convinced that they have
behind them the overwhelming major
ity, why are they afraid to attend a
congress of this sort? The majority
will be with them, and the will of
the majority of the congress will
decide the political line Of the United
International Everything is clear re-
garding this proposal We propose to
those who everywhere make a great
cry over their democratic principles,
the most democratic way conceivable
for uniting the divided International
trade union movement Meanwhile
however, the opponents of the R. 1.
L. U. do not desire this proletarian-
democratic solution of the question
and hide their fear of proletarian
democracy by means of the great out
cry over the craftiness of the Com
munists.
To mobilize the masses for unity is
the most important task at the present
moment. The majority of the leaders
of the Amsterdam International be-
lieve that they will be able to evade
this problem and to patch up the
growing fssure in their own
ranks which is consequent upon the
inexorable rehabilitation of the work
ing masses. If the Amsterdam Inter
national does not meet the wish of the
majority of its own members it will
simply collapse and unity will be re-
stored over the heads of the present
leaders. This is the reason why we,
although we are quite aware of the
enormous difficulties which are lying
in our path, reply to the question,
whether the unity Of the International
trade union movement is possible:
yes, it is possible and inevitable. To.
gether with the leaders or without
the leaders, the divided international
trade union movement will in any
event be welded together into q
powerful anti-capitalist bloc.

THAT unity is a very beautiful
1 thing and therefore desirable is
not disputed for moment by the bit
terest disrupters. We are not faced
with the question of unity Gin gen
eral," or Of unity in principle" or of
unity in very remote future, but with
the question whether at the present
time, in view of the actual interna-
tional situation, of the existence of
divided, parallel organizations, etc. it
is possible to attain unity and how it
is to be brought about
We must remark at the outset that
the split does not exist in every coun-
try. In many countries the followers
of the R. /. L. U. are within the organ
izations affiliated to Amsterdam. In
these countries the followers of the
r. |. L. U. and the followers of the
Amsterdam International are organ
izatorily united. On the other hand
there are number of countries where
parallel organizations exist, and final
ly, fairly large number of countries.
the trade union movements of which
are wholly affiliated to the Red Inter-
national of Labor Unions.
What obstacles stand in the way Of
unity? These obstacles can be divided
into two groups: l. Organizatory:
2. political obstacles. The, existence
of parallel organizations inevitably
leads to organizatory conservatism
and to the effort to retain at all costs
the existing forms of organizations.
The reformist trade union movement
clings with great tenacity to the old
traditions and only adapts itself very
painfully to the new forms of the
class struggle. In the reformist trade
union movement the narrow craft in
terests come before the interests of
the workers of the country as a whole
and the interests of the fatherland
come before the interests of the inter-
national proletariat. 1t would. how
ever, be mistake to assume that or
ganizatory conservatism is only con-
fined to the reformists. There are
revolutionary workers who suffer from
organizatory conservatism and believe
that it is best to follow the old road,
not to make any sharp turns, not to
unite the workers of different ten
dencies, as this could destroy the or
ganizatory structure.
The organizatory obstacles are, of
course, Of secondary Importance in

thoroughly erroneuos conclusion. In
fact We do not submit demands to the
refOrmists in order that they shall be-
come Communists, and we do not pro
pose to the reformists that they shall
occupy themselves with the futile task
of debolshevizing the Bolshevikif The
revolutionary trade unions of all coun-
tries which are in the r. l. L. u. pro-
pose, in full agreement with the Com
munist International, way which is
acceptable to the most bitter oppon-
ents of Communism in the Amsterdam
International, if they only adopt a
somewhat conscientious attitude re-
garding the interests of the working
class.
1--WE will not submit conditions to
one another" says the r. l. L. U. 1--WE
will convene a conference of represen-
tatives of both Internationals, we will
jointly decide the time and place of
the international Unity Congress, at
which the organizations affiliated to
the r. |. L. U. and to the Amsterdam
International, as well as those trade
union organizations which are outside
both Internationals, shall be represen-
ted. We will discuss at the inter-
national congress the concrete tasks
Of the struggle against the capitalist
offensive and against the fascist reac-
tion. At this congress we will create
the United Trade Union international.
Whoever has the majority at this
congress will carry through their re-
solutions and will have the majority
on the executive body. The constitu-
ton of the new international will be
in accordance with the standpoint of
the majority. At this unity congress
the Red International of Labor Unions
and the Amsterdam International will
declare that they dissolve their or
ganizations and enter into the United
International. We Communists and
revolutionary workers of all countries
declare through the Communist Inter
national and the r. l. L. U. that if we
find ourselves in minority, that we
shall remain in the new international
and submit to the discipline of the
movement, whilst we shall carry on
our fight for influence among the mas
ses. If the opponents of Communism
make similar declaration the Ques-
ton will be quite clear.

nounce judgment as to whose tactics

Is Unity Of the International Trade Union Movement Possible?

comparison with the political obstac-
les. Many comrades ask: Can we
unite with the reformists when they
are even against the class struggle?"
These comrades desire to lay down
conditions regarding unity (break
with the bourgeois coalition, fight
against the Dawes plan, etc. To de-
mand from the reformists that they
abandon the coalition with the bourge-
oisie is to demand the impossible. To
make unity dependent upon this i'm
plies a breach of unity, for the aban-
donment of the coalition with the
bourgeoisie means the end of reform
ism.
On the other hand, the most bitter
opponents of unity on the side of the
reformists submit their conditions to
the left wing of the trade union move
ment. This specially applies to the
"Vorwaerts," the organ of the Ger.
man social-fascists. The "Vorwaerts"
spits poison and gall against unity.
1t is of course in favor of unity, but
desires that the Communists shall not
organize any nuclei, that they shall
not incite the workers against the
leaders of the trade union movement,
that they shall not "caluminate," but
faithfully carry out the policy of the
black hundred which is conducted by
the German social-democracy along
with the German General Federation
of Trade Unions. In this respect the
"Vorwaerts" fully reflects the view re-
garding unity which exists in the right
wing Of the Amsterdam international.
The meaning of all this talk over
this theme is that they turn to us and
say: Become reformists and then we
shall unite with you!" This astute
solution of the problem of unity is
typical of the Second International,
which leads, ideologically and polite
ally, the reactionary portion of the
Amsterdam International. 1t must be
said that all this kind of talk is mere
waste of time. The Communists have
not the lest reason for Transforming
themselves into reformist corpses,
and whoever believes that the Com
munists will deviate even a hairs
breath from their principles in arriv-
ing at unity does not understand any
thing of Communism or of the prob
lem of unity.
If, however, the reformists main
tain their position and the Commun.
lists their, then the unity of the trade
union movement is impossible!-th

railroad office, including the ticket Of

continuing each day until further no
