Leaders Errors in
British Strike Told
T. u. E. L. by Bedacht

How even the alleged "left wing"
leaders of the General Council of the
British trade unions became victims
to the folded arms" strike theory
Of the Thomases and McDonalds in the
great general strike was told by Max
Bedacht, editor of the Workers Month
ly, at this months regular meeting Of
the Trade Union Educational League
in the Northwest Hall. An hour of in
teresting discussion followed the lee
ture.
Bedacht's analysis brought out the
disastrous contradictions between the
theory of passivity of the General
Council and the enforcement of the
emergency powers act by the govern
ment. "The real reason for the break
of of the strike was the leaders real
ization that they could no longer force
the rank and file to accept their inter-
probation Of a strike-that 1t is merely
an economic weapon and that only
economic means should be used to
win It," He showed how the leaders
denial of the strikes political char
acter was the source OF its betrayal.
What should be the attitude OF mill
tant workers toward Purcell, who
yielded to the defeatist policy of
Thomas? In answer to this question,
Bedacht pointed out the danger OF
repudiating Purcell, declaring that he
is still a bridge for reaching thou
sands Of workers. 1--WE must con-
denim his mistakes and explain them,"
he said, "but guard ourselves against
inclination toward the grave error Of
Isolation, as would have resulted, for
instance, II labor's left wing had
moved to abandon the Anglo-Russian
committee for trade union unity"

Workers Vacation Up
at Works Council
Meeting Friday
BY JIM LoWRIE
(Worker Correspondentl

According to information supplied
by those who know, at yesterdays
meeting Of the DeerIng Works Coun-
ell, the question was to come up of q
one weeks vacation with pay for all
who had worked for the international
Harvester Co. for ten years. Workers

this matter we're doubtful about the
proposition being carried They said
that the company would bring up o
hard luck story about its losses ON
some machine which did not turn out
right, and so the whole thing would
go to smash. The old timers we spoke
to were very much interested IN this
question, and want to see some action,
What Was Action, If Any7
We are not able to tell yet what
action the Works Council took ON this
matter. or if it even came up at tsa
meeting. But If not, we should de-
mand why not. For almost ell of us
who work in the Deering Works, the
first time we find out what happened
at a Works Council meeting is when
the printed minutes are given out a
few weeks after the meeting, and
these tell us almost nothing.
Let Them Know.
The Works Council meeting has
taken place. The representatives have
already had chance to show their
colors. In the Deering Worker, we
called on those elected by the workers
to stand for the workers demands,
which are given in the article above.
What have they done? Have they
raised these matters, or have they act
ed like dumb animals, like meek
agents Of the bosses? See them, and
ask them what they have done. And
tell them what you think about those
who are elected to represent the work.
ers, and then act in the interest of the
company. The representatives must
fight for the workers, or else resign
from the council, to make room for
those who will fight.
See your representative

P PASSAIC STRIKE
RELIEF SHOULD
Be CONTINUED
Battle Is Not Yet Over,
Warns Relief Head
Especial to The Daily worker)

PAssAIc. N. j., Aug. 6,--Alfred
Waeenknecht, chairman Of the Gen.
eral Relief Committee Of the textile
strikers of Passaio and vicinity, In a
statement urges labor unions and
other organizations sympathetic to the
Passaic textile strikers to continue re.
lief contributions until the strike is
definitely settled.
He pointed out the danger Of being
led, by settlement talk, to discontinue
or slow down on relief, and stressed
the increasing demands lJr relief.
The strike is now in its twenty-eighth
week.
Reports of the settlement negotia-
tions now going on, under the auspices
Of Senator Borah, should not be per
mitted to slow up relief" declared
Wagenknecht. These negotiations
are likely to drag thru several weeks.
In the meantime, the work Of feeding
the children and families of the strik-
ers must continue, if the fruits of vic
tory are not to be lost at the very mo-
ment when prospects are brightest.
Without the generous aid of or
ganized labor and sympathetic organ
izations, the strike could not have
been brought to the present promising
stage. 1t was this aid that defeated
the textile bosses starvation offensive
and their barbarous attempt to break
the strike with the cries Of hungry
children. In the period of negotiations
before US, organized labor must con-
tinue to support relief. To slow up
on relief would be to play into the
hands of the textile bosses, who all
along have been trying to isolate us
and cut off essential relief.
Even If settlement negotiations
take less time than is anticipated, the
General Relief Committee will be COM
PEELED to issue relief cards for seV.
eral weeks after the workers have re-
turned victorious to the mills. The
workers will not receive a pay en-.
velope until the expiration Of two
weeks, and for these two weeks they
must be supported by us.
Furthermore, the work of building
up the sickly, puny bodies Of the
strikers children must be continued
even after the strike Is over. These
victims Of the mill bosses inhuman,
ity will need our assistance Just as
long as we can give it.
Every labor union, conference and
sympathetic organization is asked to
carry thru to success every activity
at present planned and to plan as
many new activities as possible"

bitterly anti-union Illinois Central
Railroad.
Federal Judge James H. Wilker-
son-He granted the injunction that
was used as a terrific weapon
against the striking railroad shop
men in 1929.
Edward J. Brundage-As attorney
general OF Illinois he led the legal
attack Of the Illinois "open chop"
interests against the coal miners at
Herrin, Williamson County.
Stuyvesant Peabody-Head Of the

foe of trade unionism in Chicago.
Ex-Judge Kenesaw Mountain
Landslide won an unenviable rec
ord for judicial infamy by using the
war hysteria to cover up his attacks
on workers and workers organiza-
tions.
The list also includes the heads
Of the exclusive goose-step Harvard
and Yale universities. The section
devoted to politicians Is graced by
Governor Al Smith and Mayor
James L. Walker. the lackeys of
Tammany Hall In New York City
and state.
1t will be seen that the catholics
are carefully interspersed with non
catholics, many of them representa-
tive protestants.
But nowhere in the whole list is
to be found a single individual that
might lay claim to the slightest pre-
tense to speak for the workers and
farmers Of the United States. Even
the most loyal catholic labor official
is barred.
II might be well for American
labor to consider sending a deIega-
ton OF its own to Mexico, not to
protest against the acts Of Gales
government, but to uphold it in all
that it does to protect Mexican labor
against the aggressions Of the i'm
perialist invaders.
American labor knows the Nor
gans, the Frestones, the Fords, the
Rosenwalds, the insults, the Garys,
the Markhams, the Wilkersons and
Brundages. Labor knows that this
crowd supports only the enemies of
the working class.
Thus the decision as to the stand
of American labor in the present
Mexican crisis can easily be made.
The workers and farmers in the o.
S. can only fight for themselves by
fighting against the imperialist enc
mics of the Mexican revolution, in
cluding the catholic church. They
must support the Mexican revolution
until every profiteer, native and
alien, is driven from Mexico and
real workers rule established, The
present struggle tends in that direc-
ton. 1t must therefore be crowned
with victory. Labor north of the
Rio Grande can aid achieve that
victory.

On which side are you?

fON which side are you?
~ Workers and farmers in the
United States may have some diff
flculty in deciding that question for
themselves as they view the strug-
gle between the Gales government
and the catholic church in Mexico.
It would not be difficult for them
to decide if they thoroly understood
the Gacts: foreign oil interests, rub
Der corporations, great landholders,
and international bankers using the
cloak of religion to advance their
predatory designs against the Mex
lean masses.
That view is withheld from them
by the daily press that caters to the
power in Rome. Both the press and
the church battle in defense of the
same proit-taking interests.
Let labor on this side of the Rio
Grande, however, take one look at
the names of the "score Of captains
of industry, educators and men high
in political life," as the Chicago
Daily News puts it, that have been
invited by the Chicago lawyer, Jay
]. Mccarthy, to proceed to Mexico
and protest against the Gales gov
ernment's attack on the church. The
List includes some of the most out
standing bandits Of big business and
sworn foes of labor in the United
States. Let them pass in review:
julius Rosenwald-Head of Sears
Roebuck & Co., exploiter of child
labor in its great mail order plants.
Foe Of labor unions. Reaps great
profits by sending cheap goods at
high prices to the farmers.
H. S. Firestone-Head of the Fire
stone Rubber company. Admits that
he is trying to tighten his grip on
$4,000 acres of rubber land in
Chiapas, Mexico. He is also trying
to get the United States government
to aid him in similar venture in
the Philippines, were his agents are
playing the mohammedan against
the christian religions to gain their
own ends. Maintains "open shop"
in great rubber plants at Akron, o.,
and elsewhere.
Henry and Edsel Ford-Also in

tires. Trade unions not tolerated by
"the Ford System" of slavery. Sec
