the international, will stimulate their
conscience. Over $4,000 were spent
on the Fur Worker, to slur the left
wing and throw mud at Soviet Rus
STA.
Just examine the Fur Worker and
see what sort Of educational work
you find there. What a shameless
band led it! Mr.. President, Secretary
and Organizers sought $11O weekly
wages and their expenses, quite legal
ly, but vented their spleen on the
workers, when they wanted benefits
while on strike. The right wing dele
gates felt at ease when the president
rubbed it into the rank and file. They
laughed heartily. That's right, give
it to them, and at the same time hand
it to those left wingers, who still have
faith in the rank and file" How can
the rulers be the representatives of
the workers, when they have no faith
in them? How can one represent
workers, when one would eat them
alive?i The relations and feelings be-
tween the workers and the leaders
forced upon them are quite mutual!
No wonder, the labor movement
makes such progress!
Mock Workers Resolution.
To the proposed resolutions, the
leaders had mocking tone-cynicism,
full of 1mockery. The tone was of de-
feat, of Insecticides. Their only re-
venge-r7a petty sarcasm. Be it their
consolation, The convention is over.
1t was no usual convention. Every
thing did not ride along as smoothly
as usual. Wherever there are left

before the opening of the confer

ity of the tiaring up of friction once
again between the split Sodomei and
the Hyogikai, thereby endangering
the conference. This fear, however
was unfounded and through skillful
maneuvers of left wing delegates the
conference closed with victory on
their side. The appearance of a ma

thus been assured at this memorable

mittee reports everything is alright
and recommends it's acceptance. Only
Comrade Schneider had great deal
to oppose in the report.
"lnJunctions o. X"
The ex-president answers in long
speech. Injunctions are o. X. AS a
practical labor leader, he recognizes
that capitalists fight workers with in
junctions-but, workers, too, may en-
ploy them. A very good means to
cure a boil! About the locals that
did not wish to become locals, 1t is
the fault Of the rank and file. A factl
Milwaukee workers do not want to
be organized. The rank and file is q
double crosser. It wants benefits in
time of strike. The rank and file is
a traitor. Leaders are alright.
Oh, in what cynical relations are
the leaders to the workers! Oh, what
a joke, what a pun! Can one believe
his own ears. One wonders is it a
convention of workers representa-
tives? "The rank and file is a double
crosser; has greed for money, is a
traitor"-and the leaders, the social
list lawyers, they are alright"
Financial report reads: $4,000
were spent for organization work.
Over $4,000 in benefits to the double

4 A MONG other activities of the left
a wing minority Of Japanese labor,
we must count its international activ-
ity first. When the Chinese textile
workers, started a colossal fight
against world imperialism early this
year,, the Japanese revolutionary
workers at once responded to the call
of the Chinese workers and started an
energetic protest movement against
their. own imperialistic government.
The movement was relentlessly sup
pressed by police and gendarmerie,
but it has succeeded in awakening the
sense of International solidarity Of
the working class, even amongst the
most backward masses.
The invitation issued by the Nihon
Rodokumiaia Hyogikai to the del
egates of the Russian unions and con-
sequent visit of the delegates to ia

bership for the support of class strug-
gle policies as against the class-col-
liberation policies of Hillman, Levin
& Co., and any attempt to rally the
membership only on the destructive
platform of non-payment of dues
would wreck the left wing and the
union. So. the proposal of Brother
Marcus cannot be accepted
That, does not mean. of course, that

support to the left wing program and
to left wing leaders. that then the

no interest in protecting the gangsters

slightest idea that we can expect any

upon the organized power of the MEM

In both the points raised by Brother
Marcus, the left wing has only one
objective toward which II struggles
that is. to rally the membership to
fight for correct policies. and for mil.

Only for a short while has the ma
chine saved itself from complete an
utilization. Here and there, it has
struggled in a few on jobs; but no
positions, because the membership
paid them in return with the same
coin-hate and disgust. Of what
value is the machine without the
trust of the workers? OF course, the
machine may avenge itself on the
workers and throw down their reso-
lutions and fail to bring into action
their desires. But it is not as in
the days gone by. The force of or

The fight against Kaufmanism will be
brought to its completion.
At the meeting in Cooper Union,
the membership has shown its rage
against Kaufmanism and the For
wards, supported by the socialist
party lawyers, which is proof enough
that the workers will not tolerate any
oppressor. The good old days are
gone, the right wing in the needle
trades, should learn a lesson from
the history of the Furriers Union.
