ut was not anticipated that the
strike would result id any sweeping
victory. The extent Of the organiza-
ton and the pfeparation did not
justify such expectation, and the
steady opposition and scabbing tao
tics of the 1. s. q. cfacialdom were
not overlooked-but great quantities
OF strike literature were thoroly dis
tributed over the water front and the
ground well prepared for the organ
ization campaign which proceeds
right on from the strike. A very
considerable increase In membership
has resulted from the strike and
some strong fighting elements have
Joined the port delegate body as a
result.
Great interest In World Unity.
Tho there was great activity
about strike headquarters today, the
membership did not overlook the
manifesto, published quite fully in
one Of the morning papers as cabled
from London, of the joint advisory
council set up last April by the gen
eral council Of the British Trades I'm
ion Congress and the All-Russian
Council of Trade Unions. The mani
festo, which calls in militant tones
for trade union unity thruout the
world was strongly commended.
The manifesto as quoted in the
London cables reads as follows:
Employers World Wide Attacks.
"The industrial and economic stu
alton, aggravated by the Dawes plan
in most countries, has become worse
since the beginning Of this year. I'm
employment is worldwide in its eff
fects and is steadily increasing. At
tacks Of the employing class on work
ers' hours and wages become more
and more definite and deliberate.
Parallel with the growth Of eco
nomic reaction the political situation
has become more and more reaction
airy and obstructive to working class
interets. In various parts of Europe
reactionary groups Of capitalists are
obtaining more and more power and
leadership in the policy of the state
and the danger of war fs becoming
nearer and more evident.
Imperialism Prepares War.
1.-THE Anglo-Russian Conference last
April, in the following words, ex-
pressed the situation as it had de-
veloped up to that time: Already
it would appear that new war, more
terrible and more monstrous than
any hitherto, is being prepared
"These words still persevere and
maintain their full force. Already in
Morocco, in Syria, in China the
thunder of warfare is giving evidence
of the Justice of this warning.
war is being waged on the Riffs
in Morocco and upon the Arabs in
Syria, while the Chinese workers and
peasants are revolving against ex-
ploitation and usurpation and are
held down by armed force.
New Menace to Soviet Russia.
This is making clear to all work
ers of the world the insincerity of the
lofty professions of peace made by
capitalist statesmen. The guarantee
pact places upon Germany the duty
OF using sanctions against the states
unwilling to submit to the league of
nations. The object of this is to in
clude Germany in a military alliance
directed against Soviet Russia. This
would make Germany a. constant
menace to Soviet Russia and at the
same time would create in Germany
a strategical base for any projected
attack upon the Soviet Republics.
Clear Way for One World Union.
! THE establishment of an alI-in-
elusive worldwide trade union inter-
national has therefore become more
necessary than ever. The worldwide
and active sympathy aroused by the
creation of the Anglo-Russian Joint
advisory council among the workers
OF all countries ~ is unmistakable
proof of the justice and correctness
Of the line taken by the Anglo-Rus-
sian conference, of the practical pro-
posals adopted and the inevitable
success OF the cause of national and
international trade union unity.
THE Joint advisory council, prompt.
ed by the firm desire ardently ex-
pressed by more than 11,OOO,O 900
British and Russian workers, appeals
to the workers Of every country, and
to their organizations and leaders, to
join their efforts with the British and
Russian trade union movements in
order to secure the removal of all
obstacles and difficulties in the way
OF national and international working
class unity, and to help them bring
into existence oe all-inclusive world
wide federation of trade unions"
