Striking October workers Monthly"

THE October issue of The Workers
Monthly strikes one as not only
being one of the best issues of the
magazine that we have seen but also
as marking a new departure or rather
new stage of it's development. This
is probably due as much to the va.
riety of the articles and to their or
ganization as to the number of new
features.
with Marx and EneeIs."
PROFESSIONALLY the most strik-
" ing thing about this issue of the
monthly is the Inauguration of a new
department: with Marx and Engels.
AS the editor correctly points out a
knowledge of the actual writings of
Marx and Engels is indispensable to
the understanding OF the fundamen-
tails of Marxism and Leninism that
must serve as the basis for the effec-
tive functioning OF the revolutionary
working class movement. And so,
"since comparatively little OF the to.
tai writings Of Marx and Engels are
available in English" a department in
The Workers Monthly in which there
will be published regularly articles,
letters, etc, of Marx and Engels that
are unavailable or practically mac
cessible Is certainly highly valu.
able feature. This department of the
monthly is under the direction OF
Comrade Avram Landy, a careful stu

ARTICLE EIGHT.
BY WILLIAM r. dunno.

THE American trade union move
ment must be lifted out of the
slough Of despond into which it has
been dragged, It's morale raised and
the will to struggle developed.
1t must become the leader of the
working masses Of the United States.
1t does not play this role now. 1t
simply accepts the existence of cap
italism as a fact, looks upon the
prosperity" of the country in exactly
the same way as the capitalist jour
nails describe it Gas new golden age
of Americanism) and follows the lead
Of the capitalists in its policy.
For skilled workers the trade I'M
ions have as yet some appeal but the
great majority Of the American work
ingclass are not skilled workers.
They are unskilled and semi-skilled
and are in the big basic Industries.
A TRADE union movement cannot
"A organize decisive masses Of these
workers unless it can express, to
some extend at least, thes revolution
airy mission inherent in the working
class. 1t must have a crusading spi-
rit and the business theology of the
present labor leadership will not and
cannot adjust itself to this fact.
AS one of the main reasons for the
morlbund condition of the American
labor movement the surrender Of
labor of11cialdom to American cap
italism has not escaped the attention
