Impressions of the Workers School

Workers School at night, after a
whole day of toiling amidst bad con-
ditions, we find teachers who are not
agents of capitalists, but teacher
workers who understand us. Here we
learn about the bad conditions of all
workers, no matter what nationality
they may be- We learn not only
about the workers in our own coun-
try but OF those In different countries.
In other words, we study the work.
ing class movement and try to find
way out Of the bad conditions that
are created by the capitalist system of
society.
OF course, the Workers School is
poor yet. 1t has not the equipment
which is necessary for a school. but
this is not an obstacle for us and does
not keep students from attending the
school. My opinion is that every class
conscious worker should attend the
Workers School and do his best for
it. With the support of students, we
may in time establish a Workers
College.

FORMISTS IN
ITALY PLAY A
FASCIST CAME
"Reorganize" Left Wing
Unions
BY c. GENNANETTo.
Especial to The Daily Worksrl

MILAN, Italy, April 6--The reform
lists Of the General Confederation Of
Labor are playing the game of the
fascist. Following upon the fascist
trade union laws, the laws of the con-
federation were altered in such way,
altho contrary to the constitution, as
to allow the reformist leaders to pro-
coed against all affiliated organiza-
lions underTthe control Of Commun-
lists and left wingers.
The italian Wood Workers Associa-
ton and the Italian Union of Restau-
rant and Hotel Employees have been
told by the -reactionary heads of the
organization. that they are hereafter
to be part of the mixed trade union
federation The progressive local
branches of, these two militant organ
izations will. hereafter be directly un-
der the thumb of the reactionary CEN
ter.
Even the Maximalists, tho violently
opposed to the Communists, have
AIKEN a stand against the "reorgan-
zing activities" of Bruno Buozzi,
D'arrangona's successor as head of
he Confederation of Labor. Alto
gether, ten trade union organizations
have been dissolved in this way. 1t
IS significant to note that of these ten,
seven were controlled by non-reform-
list elements.
This is all one more indication of
the strength of the Communists
among the masses and the fear of
the reformist leaders of the Commun-
gsts' influence in the. coming trade
union congress. The next step is the
dissolution Of the Chambers of Labor
local trade union councils) in which
the influence of the left elements is
great.
