League as an integral part" of the
Workers (Communist) Party. 1t re
cites a number of alleged Communist
misdeeds and states that the Furrier'

The Call to Action" concludes
with:
The time has come when the
preservation Of the trade unions de-
mands the expulsion of these eIe-
ments from offices and control.
The unions must remain free from
outside domination and from the in
reference of all political partiesl
Individually every worker may fol-
low any religious or political creed,
but the unions must remain indie
pendent of all.
We therefore call for war upon
Communist disruption. We call for
all workers in all unions to unite
against the internal enemy, the dis
rupter, who is destroying the unions
for the benefit Of the external
enemy, the capitalist. II is com
mon fight for all workers who be-
lleVe that their protection lies in
the preservation Of their unions.
The division between the Com
munist adventures and the trade
union movement shall be definitely
established There shall be nothing
common between these irresponsible
elements and the trade unions.
The labor movement shall lend no
assistance to any undertaking
which, directly or Indirectly, shall
include the Communists. 1t shall be
war to their finish. Down with Com

ENVEN if we give such factors as the
IL long period of unemployment
which preceded che strike and the
tremendous profits which the Ameri-

still remains true that the greatest
weaknesses Of the union was the
treacherous character OF the right
wing activities.

IETITH 10000 workers locked out by
w the jobbers, the right wing in the

came the officialdom Of other unions
in which the left wing was showing
strength-the United Mine Workers of

attended by vice-President Vol OF

was held in New York during the

made at this meeting to start new

the left wing in the trade unions.
THE next week, a conference of Of
l. ficials which claimed to represent
35 unions was held in the Rand school.
This meeting did three things:
l. 1t adopted a manifesto calling
upon the labor movement to extermin-
ate the Communists.
2. 1t formed a permanent organiza'
ton calling itself the Committee for
the Preservation of the Trade Unions. -
g. 1t arranged for a larger confer
ence to be called a General Trade
Union Conference" to which all
unions in New York are invited to
send three delegates and which is to
