.THE Communist International,
= whose mission in history it is to
mobilize, train and lead the proletar-
ian masses to the conquest of world
Imperialism, enters its eight year on
March 5th. For seven years it has
stood as the beacon light to guide the
oppressed of the earth as they tread
the blood-stained path toward the
liberation of mankind from the de-
basing slavery of capitalism. The in
heritor of the best traditions of the
revolutionary movement from the time
Marx and Engels first issued the
clarion call to action in the Commun-
list Manifesto, down to this very day,
the Communist International has sur
mounted every barrier thrown in its
path by the agents of capitalism. 1t
has met and defeated alike the most
sinister Vaccinations of the avowed
imperialists and those last reserves
of a decadent capitalism, the social
democrats and opportunists of every
, stripe. Its seven years record of
leadership proves that it will be able
to surmount every future barrier that
history can impose upon it.
Even its most bitter enemies, NAL
igning and villifying the Comintern
and its leaders, must concede that it
is today more powerful than ever.
When, after the defeat of the German
revolution, the sitting of the Hungar-
ian proletarian state, the fierce crush
ing of the advance guard of the revo-
lutionary proletariat in many countries
of Europe, it was evident that capital
ism was to experience a new lease of
life, thru temporary revival, most
sinister opportunist tendencies began
to manifest themselves within the
ranks of the parties of the Interna-
tional, itself. The political soil out
Of which springs opportunism was
ready for cultivation. But the Com
munist international was able to re-
cognize, isolate and exterminate from
its various sections these blighting
tendencies. 1t came into existence
fighting against the Unreasonable
treachery of the heroes of the old
Second International who had sunk

thing they've a mind to, thru num-
5erless institutions in their control;
md every conscious worker must
move to counter that education :"
The worker lives the life of an ex-
plotted worker; he must learn to
think in terms of fighting against his
exploiters
/ Against thes weight of their efforts
to raise our ciass-children for their
class-ends we must throw the weight
of our class-effort.
A Workers School comes to serve
as a great center of working-class ed
ucation, to raise" the workers to
clear. class-conscious, militant cham
pions of the working class; to pre-
pare thousands to live and labor in
the light of class-knowledge, the
knowledge Of his class history, the
realization of his historic destiny.
A worker having this background no
longer moves in the struggles Of the
workers as slavish nonentity, but
as a conscious force for working-class
emancipation.
All hail! The Workers School and
the enlightened sons and daughters
of the working class!

exploitation. The conference decided
to commence propagating the slogan
of workers and PEASANTS govern
ment, and to carry on serious com
munist activity AMONG the country
population. 1t was felt that the draw
ing up of program for agricultu-
raj workers should first of all be care
fully considered and much more in
formation secured before being def
nitely published. This. task was left
to C. E. to deal with and will probably
be completed in three or four months.
Work Among Youth.
The revival of the Y, C. L., which
had gone out of existence some six
months ago, was resolved, and an or
ganizer appointed to commence it's
reorganization Immediately with the
assistance of the party. The forma-
ton of the Y. C. L., it was decided,
should go hand in hand with the for
nation of the Communist Children's
Section.
The successful carrying out of the
party's policy depends to very great
extent on the ability with which the
task of recruiting more workers for
the party can be successfully carried
out. In rider to assist this important
work as much as possible the price of
the party's weekly organ has been
reduced from Sd to Id, and the name
changed from the International to the
South African Worker in order to
emphasize more clearly the class
character of the party's objective.
If the conference decisions are
taken up in active spirit by the party
membership, resulting in an increase
Of our native work, trade union work,
and increased membership. then the
4th conference will indeed mark a
decided step forward in the history
Of the party.

BY James Shields (Johannesburg)
On December 26 to % there was
held in Cape Town the 4th conference
of the Communist Party of South
Africa. The changing situation in
the political field, the growth of trade
unionism among the natives, and the
proposed segregation policy of the
government we're examined and re-
viewed, and the lines of action Of the
party for 1926 discussed and decided
upon.
A big portion Of the delegates time
was occupied with dealing with the
party organization in order to secure
the proper machinery for putting our
policy into practice, and it was de-
cided that the system of area groups
be adopted in order to increase the
recruiting work of the party and eff
fectively organize the sale of the
party organ and literature.
Organize Trade Union Factions.
The conference revealed the weak
ness of the party's trade union connec-
tions and the need for definitely or.
ganizing nuclei within the trade
unions to advocate the unity of all
sections of workers, to counterfeit
the strongly existing racial prejudice
ard to bring the question of interna.
tional trade union unity to the fore
front.
1t was agreed that a more system
attic education of membership in the
party program should be undertaken
in order to equip our members for
their tasks and to facilitate the work
of recruiting new blood for the Party
-one of the most important needs OF
the moment.
With regard to the proposed segre
cation policy of the government
which aims at taking away the fran
chise of the native In the Cape prov
ince, etc, the conference decided tc
commence a campaign condemning
these reactionary proposals, and mo
bilizing an opposition to prevent then
being put into operation.
Organize Indian Workers.
The Asiatic bill was reported upor
by Commander De Norman, who
pointed out that 1t was aimed against
the wealthy Indian traders, leaving
the Indian workers practically unaf
fected. He urged the party to 'estab
lish contact with the Indian workers
in Natal with view to organizing
them for the struggle for their de
mands. chief of which were increased
wages, shorter hours and an equa
status with the European worker Tn,
working class aspect OF the lndiar
question In South Africa was strongly
stressed, and the party decided to aci
accordingly.
One Of the most important items or
the agenda was that which deal
with the land and peasant question
A long discussion revealed the ter
rible conditions OF the agriculture
workers and poor peampts, and the
necessity for formulaiing pro
gram embodying their demands II

into the slough of opportunism during
the long period preceding the imperial
list war and who were so welded to
the formulas Of parliamentary demo-
cracy that their social-patriotism was
the inevitable and shameful climax
The tremendous defeat of the prole-
tariat administered by the alliance of
social-traitors and imperialists before
the war made imperative the abandon
ment Of the Second international, the
international Of ineffable Sufamy, and
the creation Of Third International

stration was the big line of marching
women workers, which was headed by
Lena Greenberg who is chairlady of
the women's strike committee. The
women workers have shown their mill
fancy and ability in this strike, and
on the picket line they have proven
to be the best of pickets.
Tho the fur manufacturers have at
their services numerous gangsters and
the whole police force with their in
dustrial squads who beat, club and
make wholesale arrests of workers, the
militant spirit of the strikers is un-
awed and they are determined to win
their demands. They realize that under
the old conditions the fur workers
were reduced to slaves, for whenever
the boss desired he could hire and
fire the workers. No one dared pro-
test.
Kaufman Aided Bosses.
They were able to do this by
virtue of an agreement between the
bosses and the Kaufman administra-
ton. When the workers complained
to the union bureaucrats, they were
thrown out of the office. When the left
wing administration got into power
with the aid of the workers there was
no other alternative but to get condi-
lions for the workers so that they will
be treated as union workers and moi
as slaves. ~
When the workers submitted their
demands to the bosses, they were an
swered with lockout. The fur work
ers were forced to go on strike. They
are out to-day full OF enthusiasm and
determination to win the demands
They are proving 1t by the big mas
demonstrations they arc holding ever
Monday morning. --
Forward Acts As Strikebreaker.
Not only do the fur strikers hav
to contend withlthe police, gangster
and bosses but they have to conten
with all the black forces of the socia
list party whichfis5 trying to undermin
the morale and militancy Of the strih
er, by poisoning the minds of some OF
the workers with deliberate lies and
, falsehoods, and with the aid OF their
yellow sheet The Forward they are
trying to confuse the strikers with
false statements of wanting to settle
with the trimming fur manufacturers
with less demands than submitted to
the fur manufacturers association, and
these demands the trimming manu-.
facturers have rejected. These actions
Of the socialists show their insincer-
ity In the class struggle and toward
the workers.
From many sources reports come In
that there is a very strong dissatisfac
ton with the leadership Of the assocla
tion of Mr.. Samuels. They claim thai
unless Mr.. Sanuels quits fighting the
union, they VIZ rbe forced to leave
the association and settle with the
union, because Samuel's policy will
ruin their business as many bosses
were ruined In the strike OF 1920.
