tltude OF the majority of the bureau
ology of Cvetkov & Co. and for the
development of Communist theology,
the c. E. @. was of the opinion then,
and is of the opinion now, that his
elimination from responsible and pub
lie activity would be decidedly incor-
rect. The fight against Cvetkovism
would not be strengthened by such
a decision. The G. E. c has to record
the fact that the bureau has not car
ried out fully The spirit of the previ-
GUS decision II The c. E. C. regarding
the work Of Colnrade Fisher, and for
that reason it is necessary to reaftirm
that decision and to Insist on com
pliance with it The G Il. Z. therefore
decided that since comrade Fisher mas
been removed from the editorial staff
Of Radnik, he should be assigned to
work of not less importance than the
position of district organizer The
C. E. C. accepts the proposal of the
minority Of the bureau to appoint
Comrade Fisher to the position of
district organizer in the important
district of Pittsburg, which has also
been suggested by the district organ
izer of the party in the Pittsburg
district.
The Composition of the Red Aid
Committee
According to the resolution adopted
by the Red Aid commission at the
sessions of the enlarged executive
committee of the Communist Interna-
tional, the Red Aid organization is to
be constructed on broad basis, hav-
! ing formally non-partisan character
and drawing a substantial number of
non-party members into its work and
it's governing committees.
A policy of factional discrimination
in the nominations of party members
for the Red Aid committee would have
very injurious effect on the work
1t would have the effect of narrowing
the base of the Red Aid instead of
broadening it. The healthy develop
ment of the organization of the Red
Aid is project of enormous political
importance for the party. Factional-
ism must be eliminated from this
work.
The G. E. G. does not approve the
action of the bureau in excluding
members of the minority of the
bureau from membership in
the provisional national committee
of the Red Aid. The minority
must be given full opportunity to par
ticipate in this work and must be
given substantial representation in
this committee
The c. E. G. subcommittee shall
continue to function to investigate
more fully the political differences be-
tween the two groups, and shall at
tempt, in agreement with both groups,
to settle disputed questions upon
which they are unable to come to
agreement alone.
This resolution shall be sent IN a
special circular to the branches of
the Federation.
This decision was correct and ne
| cessary for the best interests of the
Federation. 1t was taken only after
the most thoro consideration and only
after it became perfectly clear that
the rushing policy of the majority of
the Bureau could be restrained in no
other way.
The secretary of the Federation,
Comrade Cuckovich and the bureau,
took upon themselves the responsible
lily to sabotage this decision of the
c. E. c. and to refuse to carry it out.
Not single one of the provisions of
the resolution were put into effect and
at meeting Of the full bureau of the
Federation held on June 18th, a mo-
ton to comply with the c E. C. deci-
sion at once was again rejected.
These actions constitute indefens-
ible breaches of party discipline
which set a most demoralizing exam
pie to the membership in branches Of
the Federation. Such an attitute to-
ward discipline on the part OF such
responsible body as the Federation
bureau is incompatible with the task
of building a centralized, disciplined
party and must be categorically con-
demned. But the undisciplined actions
of Comrade Cuckovich and the major
ity OF the bureau are not in themsel-
YES the features of greatest import
ance in the affair. IL is the reasons
animating these comrades in their I'M
disciplined attitude toward the deci-
I sions OF the G. T.. G. which are must
serious and which must be brought
out into the open and combatted as
un-Communist. The majority of the
bureau is attempting to receive the
principles OF Federation autonomy
and decentralization at the very time
when the party must begin to prepare
itself ideologically for decisive step
forward towards greater centraliza.
ton and toward the merging OF the
Federation more closely into the
party.
