Especial to The Daily Worker)
FREDERICK, S. Dakota, Feb. 16.-
The poor farmers Of the country are
not backward in understanding the
danger that presents itself in the
form of the so.called conference for
progressive political action, and in
the resolution given below, the Savo
farmer-labor club shows to what de-
gree Of understanding the working
farmers have attained when Com
munism in the form Of the program
Of the Workers Party penetrates the
agricultural districts. The resolution
Is as follows:
Resolution of the c. p. p. A.
Whereas, the conference for pro-
gresslve political action &C. P. P. A.
will hold conference in Chicago on
February 25, 1925, and
Whereas. the c. P. P. A. is a part
Of the LaFollette movement which is
not a labor movement, but a combina-
ton Of so-called liberal capitalist poll
tcians. bankrupt socialists, and re-
prominent open shoppers, and
Whereas, the purpose of the c. P.
p. A. is not to organize the workers
and poor farmers for active political
struggle against their exploiters, but
on the contrary, to subject the ex-
plotted masses to the leadership Of
small capitalists and professional pol
iticians, and
Whereas, the most burning need Of
the working masses at present is TO
unity all forces of labor for a real
struggle against wage cuts, against
child labor, against the failing and
persecution Of working class mill
tants, and for the defense of the for
eign born worker, and
Whereas, the policies of the C. P.
p. A. can have no other effect than
to raise illusions in the minds Of the
workers, thereby distracting the at
tention Of labor from its real needs
and weakening its lighting power, and
Whereas, the Workers (Commun.
ist) Party Of America. the Trade I'm
ion Educational League and other la
Dor bodies are carrying on an agita-
ton for a united front of labor and
the poor farmers for an organized
political struggle against the often
sive Of our enemies, the capitalists
and their government.
Therefore, Be Il Resolved, That
we "The Farmer-Labor Club" of
Savo, are opposed to the C. p. p.
A. and will carry on a struggle
against the attempt Of their organ
ization to impose upon US their poll
Giles Of class collaboration on the
political field which can only serve
the interests of the bosses,
That we refuse to participate In
any Of the conferences Of the C.
p. P. A. and call upon every labor
organization to do likewise,
That we endorse the united front
campaign of the Workers (com-
munist) Party and pledge our sup
port In the struggle against wage
cuts, against child labor exploita-
ton, against the criminal syndleaI-
list laws, and for every other mea-
sure that will strengthen the forces
Of labor against the capitalists.
And Be It Further Resolved, That
copies OF this resolution be sent to
city central and state labor bodies,
district councils, TO the international
officials. and to the DAILY WORKER.
Adopted by the Savo Farmer-Labor
Club, Of Savo. South Dakota, at their
regular meeting, February 1, 1925.
