English, courses, etc, recourse to

The A. r. of L. and the Class Struggle

optimism Organized labor
has not hitherto co-operated to make
economies of production. Yet it de-
mands a full share in the pro-
ceeds -. the process will be de-
layed unless labor takes seriously
and very inteIIigentIy its promises
Of cooperation.
THE Brooklyn Eagle, a militant ad-
= vocate of the open shop, is even
ess encouraged by the new A. F. of
L. official policy:
General extension Of the use OF
automatic machines and general ex-
tension Of the use of electric power
were cited in the council report, ad-
vocating such new wage policy :.
Trade unionism formuIates and puts
forth fierce defiance What
impresses US most in the formulated
defiance is the intransigeancy of
the language-"in proportion to
mans increasing power of produc-
tion." Literally applied it would
take away from the employer any
motive for using new devices
..... He would be no better off for
his new investment in many
fields they (the employers) have
found that shorter hours are not
producing as much per worker per
hour as did the ten-hour day
Also aggression on one side causes
aggression on the other. Employers
may stand on the principle that la
Dor should get less in return in
proportion to the stacking il is do
ing 49,. Logic would come as close
to justifyina the one position as the
other.
THE Nation characterizes the con.
4 vention as Optimistic and ag
gresslve."
B. G. Forbes, financial writer for the
Hearst papers, has his article on the
convention headed:
American Federation Of Labor
Wage Policy Should Meet Approval
of Bosses.
He concludes by saying:
American labor leaders have acted
much more sensibly at their con-
vention than British labor leaders
have been acting at their recent con-
ventions.
THE chop suey mixture of opinion
= from the American press and labor
oflcialdom is result of the conflict
ing interests in the economic and po
litical structure, but it is also probable
that the labor bureaucracy has been
stung by repeated criticism that 1t has
no theory to guide its actions either
on the industrial or political field. In
attempting to correct this error it has
thrown the doors wide open for the
class conscious elements in the unions
WTHAT better slogans could any
w left wing want, when the relent

continued from page 81
ficialdom has succeeded only in salts
flying the amorphous liberal group
which has no economic power.
The big bosses who speak thru the
Wall Street Journal, The New York
Times, The Brooklyn Eagle, ETC., ac-
cept willingly enough the sections of
the statement on wage policy that
have to do with inc SIS of produc-
tion and elimination - waste. but
those sentences dealing with increases
in real wages, reduction of hours and
resistance to all wage reductions are
interpreted correctly by them as an
encouragement to the rank and file
Of organized labor to go out and raise
hell-and therefore violation of the
"union-management cooperation" COM
pany union polciy endorsed by the big
bosses and blessed by Green, Vol and
Co.
WHAT the A. F. of L. oficialdom
w set out to do was to demand a
larger return for the aristocracy of
labor as further reward for its sup
port of the Dawes plan, war on the
Communists and the left wing in gen.
eral, opposition to the recognition of
Soviet Russia and world trade union
unity and the betrayal of the Mexican
labor movement to Wall Street. Faker-
dom was going to take steps to get
larger share of the loot-nothing
more.
But the entire absence of theoretical
knowledge which characterizes the
American labor leadership, led them
into making grave error.
EVEN the usually comatose Mil
- waukee Leader is able to see the
implications involved. 1t says edi-
torially:
u labor succeeds in its efforts
to enforce general eight-hour day
or shorten It, keep up real wages,
raise them with productivity, and
attain to a voice and vote in the
management Of industries, it will
amount to an economic and political
revolution.
CAPITALISM HAS REACHED A
STAGE IN WHICH EVEN A PURE
AND-sIMPLE TRADE UNION DE-
MAND CAN SET OFF REvoLU-
TloNARY RESULTS. THIS is
DRASTIcALLY ILLUSTRATED BY
THE SITUATION IN GREAT BRIT
AIN, WHERE THE SIMPLE DE-
MAND OF THE MINERS FOR A
MAINTENANCE OF THE OLD
WAGE SCALE THREATENS TO
START A GENERAL LOCKOUT
OR A GENERAL STRIKE.
The New York Times says that

less pressure from every side brought
on by the crisis in which world can
itallsm finds itself, forces the bosses
to war on labor, than mo Wage Re-
auctions" "Cut Down the Hours of
Labor, Increase of Real Wages" etc.
A TTEMPTING to deny and avoid
the class struggle, the A. F. L.
bureaucracy has shown to every con-
scious worker the, futility,,of such a
policy. Hardly are, its verbal attempts
to turn the class struggle into class
collaboration made than the alert sec
tion of the capitalist press declares
war because by the very fact of be-
ing a labor organization the A. F. of
l.. had to deal with the wage question
from the standpoint of the wage earn
ers if its officials were to maintain
their following.
WHAT the left wing has to do now
W is to further expose the double
dealing of the officialdom-to show
that even their trucking to the i'm
perialist masters by repudiating
Purcell, the British and Russian
unions and world trade union unity.
by expulsions of Communists and war
on the left wing, by refusal to endorse
and work for a labor party, by be-
trayal of the German workers to the
Dawes plan, by vilification of the
workers and peasants government of
Russia, by eulogies of American cap
italist democracy, by their fight
against industrial unionism and their
'perpetuation of 107 warning unions
all have failed to alter one hairs
breadth the undying attitude of hos
tility to the most elementary de-
mands of the workers in the form of
higher wages, shorter working hours
and better living standards.
THE absolute minimum of all these
things that can be forced upon the
workers, coupled with negation of
the class struggle by the workers
themselves, are upon what the life
|of capitalism depends.
Forcing down the standards of the
workers intensifes the class struggle.
1t is for the left wing leadership to
give it conscious direction in spite
OF the A. F. of l.. officials. The Com
munists in the left wing must and
will direct the whole struggle against
the state power-that power which
has murdered so many of William
Green's fellow unionists. but in which
he claims we are all sovereign"
Increase in Real Wages" mo Wage
Reductions" Shorten the Hours OF
Labor and Organize the morgan
ized." these are the immediate slogans
for building up left bloc which can
be developed into a real revolutionary
force.
