MOSCOW, May 1S.--tBy MaiD-The
Pravda of Thursday, contains an ar
ticle by Com. Zinoviev on the English
general strike. The article itself was
written before the breaking off Of the
strike, but postscript has been writ
ten referring to the calling off Of the
strike. In this postscript Comrade
Zinoviev points out that from the mo-
ment when the general council allow
ed Messrs Thomas and Macdonald to
play a decisive role in the strike lead
ership the strike was doomed to de-
feat. From the moment when the
leaders Of the general council began
to asseverate that the strike was not
a political strike and rejected the fl
nanciaI aid Of their brother trade un-
ions the issue Of the struggle was
clear.
Nevertheless, the English general
strike will play an enormous role, it
will be the rehearsal for future great
struggles. A great advance has been
made in regard to shaking the strong
hold of English imperialism. The
overcoming of the reformist illusions
among the English working class is
now proceeding at an unexampled
pace and the ideas of Leninism will
capture the English labor movement.
Masses Compelled Action.
In the article itself Comrade Zino-
view gives a survey of the whole de-
velopment of the strike, and proves by
means of quotations that, if, on the
eve of the strike, the miners had
shown themselves to be in the least

BY WILLIAM r. dunno.
Fourth Article,


TT is possible now, in the light of the
L defeat of the Minneapolis lawyer
Davis by Magnus Johnson, the farmer,
backed by the rank and file of the
farmer-labor association to estimate
more closely the possibilities of the
movement.
The victory of Johnson represents
a further consolidation of the mass
support of the farmer-labor party. AS
has been pointed out before, the ques-
ton of party discipline was paramount
and the lines were drawn clearly be-
tween the wavering middle class ele-
ments and the rank and file workers
and farmers.
THE farmer-labor party has estab-
L lished on a firm foundation the
principle that candidates must first of
all be responsive to the wishes of the
organization and shattered the legalis-
tic conception of the careerists within
its ranks that it is something for poll
ticians to play with.
The primary law, after the defeat of
Davis, becomes to the rank and file of
the party, only another instrument to
be used for demoralizing their ranks
instead of the democratic instrument
as which it has been hailed for years
by the capitalist party henchmen.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

and more political struggle. Cook
declared: 'We are not fighting
against the constitution, we are fight
ing for bread.
"Is it economics or politics.. is it
bread or constitution, when the gov
eminent supports strikebreakers with
the whole force of the state and bru-
tally interferes in inner trade union
affairs, when it assures the strike
breakers payment from the trade un-
ion funds, if they are confiscated?
Even if the government had done
nothing else to support the capitalists
against the workers, if it had not de-
clared the general strike to be illegal,
concentrated the whole forces of the
state against the workers, threatened
the unemployed with starvation, Gre
ated a great strikebreaking organiza-
ton, carried out mass arrests, etc,
those measures alone would have suf-
feed in order to show that the gov
eminent had Immediately converted
the economic struggle into a political
struggle.
I'VE are fighting for bread and
therefore we are fighting against your
constitution of the money-bags,
against capitalism is how Cook
should have formulated the struggle.
One should not have been afraid of
bringing politics into the strike strug-
gle, on the contrary, one should not
justify oneself if the bourgeoisie ac-
cuses the strikeleaders of political
aims, but openly say to the workers,
that the bourgeoisie have set up their
political aims in this strike, against
which the workers have to set UP their
own political program.

way conciliatory, if the fighting will
of the working class had not been
so powerful, then the right leaders in
the general council would have pre-
vented the declaration of the strike.
The masses had compelled the lead
ers to begin the struggle. The cour-
ageous mood of the Communists and
of some bold people in the. non-Com-
munist camp played a great role in
this, as they expressed the true feel
ing of the masses.
Apart from few labor leaders"
who have become strike leaders
against their will, the. entire political
world, already on the FIRST day of the
strike, clearly recognized the enor-
nous political importance of the
strike. The English Bdlrgeois press
correctly perceived this Importance
and expressed it openly. The English
bourgeoisie Immediately placed the
question on high levef of the class
struggle The bourgeois press con-
tinually called attention to the patri-
otto attitude of Thomas and MacDon-
aid, and never doubted their readi.
ness to betray the workers. The
force of the English botrgeoisie lay
in the recognition Of the political
character of the strike. sThe Interna-
tional bourgeoisie also took this into
account, when, for instance, the Of
fetal American press quite openly as
sured the English boupgeoisie of mil
itary support in the event of civil war.
The position of the English working
class would have been different if the
English labor leaders Had also recog-
nized from the first day of the strike
that the struggle was Becoming more

THIS strengthens the party inter-
nally and we may expect, II any
successes are attained in the fall cleo
tions by the party, a campaign de-
signed to prevent the primary law
being used against the workers and
farmers. This is a long step in adj
vance for workers and farmers who
few years ago were inclined to de-
nounce as agents of big business"
anyone who criticized the primary
law.
The INSCRIPTIONS campaign that
will be waged by the capitalist class
of Minnesota against its choice for
governor will tend to give additional
internal stability to the farmer-labor
party. lie
This stability it is necessary to ac-
quire with some rapidity if it is not
to be drawn into some third party
movement, surrendering its freedom
of action and losing its identity.
THIS is the big task before the rank
4 and file of the party and the most
courageous and energetic of its lead
ers. The Minnesota farmer-labor
party, while it has made considerable
advances in the last two years, freeing
itself from the domination of the red
batting" elements, insisting on and
maintaining the principle of party dis
cipline, bringing the workers and
farmers closer togethers setting up a
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

to play up the "red menace"
THIS was the burden of the state
4 ments made to me by various
prominent farmer-labor party leaders
in the Twin Cities.
And here is a difficult situation for
our party in Minnesota.
In our desire to do nothing that will
interfere with the success of the
farmer-labor campaign it is possible
that we may lean much too far to the
right and not insist enough on the
right of Communists to work as Com
munists in the farmer-labor party.
We have made, and we have still to
make, the most substantial achieve
ments for a mass party of workers
and farmers in Minnesota. We must
insist on recognition of these facts,
but only on the basis of our work for
the movement and not merely for
mally. To follow this latter course
means another period of isolation.
To err in the other direction means
that we become absorbed in the
farmer-labor party in exactly the
same way that we are trying to pre-
vent the farmer-labor party being alb
sorbed in nondescript third party of
capitalism.
Upon our success in steering the
~ clear Communist course depends
in a large measure the future of the
Minnesota farmer-labor party.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

form of organization which combines
fexfbility and the possibility of inner
party democracy with organizational
control, has not yet established itself
strong enough, in my opinion, to re-
sist the strenuous efforts that will be
made, as the agrarian crisis becomes
more acute, to absorb it into some
thing similar to the LaFollette move
ment, to make it organically merely
state organization of party ruled by
small capitalists and professional men
of the type of Davis.
THE Communists in the Minnesota
4 farmer-labor party have a big role
to play in this vitality necessary pro-
cess of Qualification and organizational
consolidation. They will have to find
means of accomplishing this eask
without isolating themselves from the
broad farmer-labor movement and
without making it possible for the
enemies of the farmer-labor movement
to make Communism the issue in the
fall elections.
The rank and file of the Minnesota
farmer-labor party are not opposed to
the Communists. They recognize
them as hard workers and good and
honest fighters, but they are deathly
afraid that someone else will be fright
ened away from the party and it's pro-
gram if the opportunity is given the
capitalist and reactionary labor press
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

At the same time it was a pleasure
to see how the working masses them
selves strobe over all sorts of preju-
dices of the old trade unionism and
showed their own countenance in the
struggle, as for example in the action
of the printing workers who prevented
the appearance of the Daily Mail. The
fight for the press is the Characters
tic feature of all modern political
strikes. Is it then an economic strug-
gle when even non-Communist trade
unionists call upon the soldiers not
to fire on the workers, when a begin
ming is made with the organizing Of
workers defense corps? In such a
gigantic struggle that party which
does not go forward, which does not
attack, is bound to retreat, must hest
tate and yield. 1t is impossible to
stand still.
A strike leadership which does not
expose and repudiate Thomas and
Macdonald must Inevitably become
the victims of these traitors. The
members of the general council believ-
ed that they would strengthen the
strike leadership by retaining such
people as Thomas. AS matter of
fact the strike leadership would have
been infinitely stronger if these
agents of the bourgeoisie, who betray
the strike in the most cowardly man.
ner, had been thrown out. To give
way to the affirmative demands of
Thomas, to seek unity with the right
leaders at any price, means to be-
come a plaything in the hands of the
bourgeoisie.
New Leadership.

AS it is today the Minnesota farmer
labor party typifes stage in the de-
velopment of such movements marked
by:
10 The separation Of the rank
and file from the middle class els-
ments by a process Of struggles
which is nearing completion.
(2.) The acceptance Of the die
cipine of the organization by large.
masses Of farmers and workers.
(3.) The establishment Of an or
ganized form which gives the rank
and file a considerable measure Of
control over candidates.
(4.) The completion Of a process
of Qualification which Is marked by
complete separation from the eapl-
taIist parties.
(5.) The achievement Of some
measure of federation for various
worklna-cIass political opinions
within the organization.
The Minnesota movement must be
studied closely by our party as future
developments occur because, as stated
in the beginning, It has reached q
stage which is some years in advance
of movements which are still essaying
the hopeless task Of reforming the
democrat and republican parties, but
which depend upon and get the SUP

Lessons of General Strike i'm Great Britain

strike movements in England, the
present strike will bring new labor
leaders to the 'front.', that il to say
real labor leaders from the ranks Of
the working class, who are not In
fected with old craft prejudices, who
do not wish to become ministers and
who are ready to proceed along the
way of memorable class struggle.
Every moment of the strike is giving
the English workers profounder un-
derstanding of the questions OF state
and power, is causing them to real
ize that the bourgeoisie must be de-
prived of the possibility of maintain
ing strikebreakers, of sending sol
diers against workers, of handing over
the unemployed and strikers, by de-
cisions of the courts, to starvation.
Every day of the English strike is
causing the workers to realize more
than they would in years OF peaceful
development, the truth Of the words
of Lenin on the impossibility OF peace
full reformist transition to socialism.
In spite of the direct treacherTs OF
the right leaders, in spite Of the ser.
ious mistakes and hesitaito1s, in
spite of the narrow outlook Of the
official leaders of the movement, the
strike has revealed as never before
the force of the English workers, hiss
aroused them and filled them with
new knowledge.
No mater how the strike may end.
it is creating a new situation N the
whole international labor movement
The British struggle has prepared the
ground for the firm consolidation, and
for the rapid development of Bolshev-
ism in the English labor movement.
