JULIO MELLA, RETURNED
TO STRENGTH; SENDS A
GREETING TO MILITANTS

The first direct word from Julio
A. MeIla since his release from the
Cuban prison where American i'm
perisism had placed him, was re-
ceived yesterday in the form of a
greeting to Manuel Gomez, secre-
tary of the AiI-America Anti-Imper-
ialist League which led the success
full fight for his liberation.
Breathing the same indomnitabIe
spirit that helped him make the
Cuban section of the anti-imperiaI-
list league a real weapon against
Wall Street domination-a spirit
that even a 1e-days' ordeal without
food could not shake-MeIIa writes
as follows:
Now that have strength to
write and the desire to return again
to the struggle burns strong in me.
send a cordial greeting to you,
and to all those militant workers
in the United States who have
shown now well they are able to
fulfill their ALPHABETICALLY, J. A.
MeIla.

The policy Of class collaboration,
of surrender to and peace with the
bosses, the policy OF making the
union-which is supposed to be the
organ of struggle against the bosses
for the interests Of the workers
an organ Of the bosses to speed up
the workers. to drive them to In
creased production regardless OF the
interests of the workers. to force by
this means ever more and more
workers into unemployment which
returns with its menace of low
wages and bad conditions for those
who do work-all this policy is
swiftly growing in the labor move
ment. Among other unions the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers
the supposed radical and even revo-
lutionary union headed by Sidney
Hillman--is being diverted from It's
course of class struggle into class

II falls to solve the real problems
confronting the New York workers.
Instead the G.. &. 3. has issued
declaration Of war not only against
the militants and proeressives in
the Amalgamated but against the
whole rank and file.
The statement of the G. E. 3. Is
silent on the question Of piece work,
standards Of production, reductions
in working forces, reductions in
wages and the corruption and inef-
fieiency Of the bureaucracy that
dominated the New York organiza-
ton. The G. E. B. offers not a
single constructive proposal for the
New York situation. II continues
the evils existing. II supports a
program that, advantageous to the
bosses, will further degrade the
workers and asgravate their mis-
cry.
