udkC lot TTCSiuCUI VI DOdEQ OF T
Alderman.
ILF0RKERS of New York City you
w are again confronted with a
municipal election. Those asking for
your support represent either the
bosses or the workers, The parties
of big business, democratic or repub-
lican, representing the class interests
of the bosses present you with lot
of phoney issues for the purpose of
beclouding the real issues. The So
cialist party, claiming to represent
you, refuses to fight for your most
elementary needs. They would not
even agree to a united labor ticket
in this election which would unite
labors' forces to Offset the united
power of the capitalists. The most
outstanding need in the struggles of
the workers at the present time is
unity of action.
The best argument for the need of
unity on the part of the workers is
to point out how the bosses maintain
power through their consultations
and how on the other hand the defeats
of labor are due to its lack of unity.
Big business is united in its mani
facturers', employers, etc. organiza-
tons. Whenever they have a struggle
on their hands with the workers they
show this unity because the recognize
their class interests. Let us use an
illustration: the big railroad strike
of 1922. Two large trunk lines, the
New York Central and the Pennsyl-
vania running from New York City
to Chicago had a large number of
their workers on strike. Both are
continuously competing for business.
One would think that one of them
would come to an agreement with the
striking workers, and the through re-
Stunning maximum operations take
most of the business away from its
competitor. But this was not done
because they know that their inter
ests differ from those of the workers
and that they must act unitedly to
defeat the workers, which they did.
The unity of the railroad owners with
the assistance of the government was
responsible for the defeat OF the work
ers. The government, be it national,
state or city, being part of the cap
italist system, comes to the aid OF
the bosses as was so clearly shown
during the above mentioned railroad
strike. Injunctions we're issued and
the armed forces of the government
were used against the strikers. On
the other hand the workers were
split. Only part Of the railroad work.
ers, that is certain crafts, went out
on strike while the rest remained at
work. lVa
THE above lesson should be enough
to teach the workers that they
must amalgamate their craft unions
into powerful industrial unions and
build labor party so that they can
fight more effectively on all fronts.

1t would take almost 20 years like
that of 1S49 to produce as much sur.

allowance must be made for the

this is very small factor indeed

Production and Rate Of Exploitation.
Extremely interesting also is the

these items. 1t is as follows:

Still more Illuminating are the

The full significance of the above
hgures may not be apparent at first
glance. A little analysis will make it
clearer. The largest plants, in 1909,
employed 3O5 out of every 1000 work
ers; in 1914, this had risen to 352 out
OF every 1000; in 1919, it had in

Number Of Wage

In the course Of 70 years, the num-
Der of wage workers in industry was
multiplied almost ten times. In the
last five year period alone, the number
increased by more than the total of
the post-civil-war years. The increases
in total population for the same per-
iod was from 23,191, S76 to los, 1920,
a multiplication of less than five
times.

This figure exaggerates the actua
decline of farm laborers because the
1920 census was taken in mid-winter,
whereas previous enumerations were
in the summer.
1t is particularly in the spectacular
increase of 1860 in the clerical oc-
equations that there is reflected the
rise of great industry. A basic tech
meal requirement for large-scale pro-
duction is the establishment of com
plete and scientific methods of &C.
counting and statistics This feature
is fundamental to ALL control of
large-scale industry, not only to cap
italist control, as Lenin we'll knew
when he insisted so strongly in the
earliest days of the Russian revolu-
ton upon the necessity of accounting
and control, and as the experience of
! Russian industry has amply proved
since that time.
The decrease in proportion of sea-
farers is a reflection of now-passing
phase of American development-the
period of the conquest of the CONT
nent, when American energies were
turned inward. The new position of
the U. S. as dominant power in world
Imperialism is already beginning to
change this, with the u S. emerging
as challenger of British supremacy
of the seas. But the modern ocean
giants of steel and steam require rela-
lively such smaller numbers of work
never be proportionally so many as
they were in the early days of Amer
ica. b re
Railroad workers, in the increased
proportion amounting to 22OSS, re-
fleet the growing Importance of trans
portation as production becomes more
integrated, more national (and even
internationally in its scope.
Summary.
From all of the foregoing, ore point
of supreme importance energies: The
forces of capitalism are hammering
out, in the United States, the largest,
the most strategically placed, and
potentially most powerful proletariat
in the world. The task of the revolu-
tionary movement is to make this
class conscious of itself, of its power
and of its historic mission to take
over the control and direction of
society.
