Workers Communist Party
The Chicago Lenin Memorial and Our Tasks

workers in the shops also need educa-
ton.
1t is of course, expected that the
party membership be the driving force
to make the enrollments for the
second term of the party school still
bigger than the first term. The sub
jects taught have been published Elk
perienced instructors are available
and all facilities can be extended If
necessary.
Daily Worker Drive.
Before The DAILY WORKER Lenin
drive is completed there is yet time
to give it mighty push in Chicago.
While the circulation during last sum-
mer decreased, since November LIST
there has been a constant increase,
altho not nearly to the degree which
should be the case.
Nothing needs to be said about The
DAILY WORKER as a weapon in the
class struggle. That is fully recogn-
lied. The effectiveness of The DAILY
WORKER as an organizer for the
Lenin mass demonstration on January
oath was proven.
Methods to be pursued to effectively
extend the circulation have been made
known to the party members and to
all supporters of our daily. All that is
needed to give real finishing touch
to the drive is the good will and real
determination to put it over. That
was the thing that made the Lenin me-
mortal meeting successful.
Party Fractions.
! Actively functioning party fractions
are the only basic guarantee for the
ultimate building of the left wing
movement within the trade unions. A
strong left wing movement means the
pursuit of militant policies by the
unions and is the only guarantee that
the leadership will actually give heed
to the needs of the rank and file.
Communists who pride themselves
of being militants and show that they
can put over real mass demonstrations
will never fail to take care of their
duties in the trade union fractions.
Nuclei should proceed Immediately to
call comrades who are lax in such
duties to order A regular and COM
plete checkup on functioning and act
ivities of all nuclei members is the
best guarantee for building of live
units.
Factory Propaganda.
Our shop nuclei have not made quite
an earnest beginning of concentration
on shop propaganda, that is to take
up the everyday problems of the work
ers in the shops, to give expression

Lenin's Educational Enrolment Week

not aloof from the class struggle, but
are continuation in theory of the
practice of the daily struggle, they
are schooling a training ground for
party membership.
This week has been designated as
Lenin's educational enrolment week.
1t is a fitting sequel to the Lenin
memorial meeting. The second term
Of the Workers School must be made
as great a success as the Lenin
memorial meeting. This can be done
if the party membership gets behind
it as earnestly as it did behind the
monster Coliseum meeting.

Young Workers of Other Lands
DISCHARGE OF YOUNG STRIKERS

PRAGUE, Czecho-Sloval1ia = After
the ending of the strike in the Bosko-
vitz Iron Works (Moravia) Sc appren-
tices were discharged for taking part
in the strike. AS the discharged ap-
prentices tried to make complaints to
the political factory administration
they were told, During the negotia-
lions over the resumption Of work the
political factory administration and
the employers association agreed that
the management could discharge Sc
apprentices. These apprentices had
no business to strike but should have
stayed on the job, they had no right
to participate in political or trade
union organizations.

to the needs of the wokers and present
the proper solution while at the same
time connect these activities up with
our general campaign. Factory papers
have proven the most valuable me-
dunn in other countries The begin
ming has hardly been made here. We
now have the shop nuclei, we must
take the next step to earnestly push
this work.
Work Among Negro Workers.
Several hundred Negro workers at
tended the Lenin memorial meeting
which shows that the party is begin
ming to make connections with the
colored race. 1t will become easy to
convince the Negro workers that the
party is their real friend and proposes
the correct methods Of solution of the
problem of any subject race. How
ever, it still remains to be actually
brought to their attention.
Our members meet Negro workers
in the shops, some Of our nuclei are
located in territories populated large
ly by Negro workers and we may rest
assured that the methods which sue
coded in bringing so many of them to
the Coliseum mass meeting will also
succeed in bringing chem nearer tc
the revolutionary movement. But whai
is needed is greater intensification of
these methods.
Party Campaigns.
Our present party campaigns in
clude mainly the questions of recogni-
ton of Soviet Russia, international
trade union unity, the building of the
labor party based on trade unions, and
protection of foreign-born workers.
That these measures are necessary is
recognized by all militant and progress
sive workers, but greater efforts are
needed to unite all those who agree in
the struggle for their accomplishment
There is an opportunity everywhere in
work shops and in unions to express
slogans of these campaigns We will
easily strike a sympathetic cord every.
where and it should Immediately be
utilized to establish a definite connec-
ton.
1t should be recognized that these
activities outlined are essential for the
further building, and strengthening of
the party By making a practical COM
bination of methods in the pursuance
of these various tasks we will succeed
in bringing the movement one step
further and a combination of all our
efforts and abilities will in sum and
substance become a real drive to con-
solidate and strengthen the working
class movement. os

BY ARNE swAREcK.

ON January oath the Chicago party
~ membership proved It's ability to
rally masses OF workers. But this task
successfully accomplished imposes
new duties for the further strengthen
ing Of the working class movement.
The Chicago Lenin memorial meet
ing became a splendid demonstration,
the significance of which has already
been emphasized in these columns
The further line of activities to be pur-
sued has been indicated. The purpose
Of this article is only to set down a
few details of the next points for con-
centration of the energies of our men,
'bership, in particular the following:
Immediate Steps.
l. An effective membership drive
2. Extended educational activities
enrolment in the party school.
8. Concentration on expansion of
The DAILY WORKER circulation
4. Increased fraction activities in
unions and language organizations.
5. Increased shop nuclei activities
factory campaigns.
6. Greater efforts to reach the
Negro workers.
Z. Greater attention to party
campaigns.
AS has been mentioned in the article
by Comrade Bell the many sympathi-
zers to our party must be made full
tiedged members. Thru the shops,
thru the unions the working class or
CARNATIONS our members should con-
centrate their efforts to bring the
party literature before these workers.
to invite them into party educational
meetings, never forgetting, however,
that it is only thru the active fight for
the interest of the workers that they
will become definitely attracted to
the party and recognize the need of
participating in its work.
More Educational Work.
The measure of progress made by
the labor movement is largely determ-
ined by the ability, the practical and
theoretical understanding of its staff
of active workers. 1t is in recognition
of that fact that the Chicago party
school has been established and that
the membership is urged to extend the
educational activities to embrace the
broadcast possible strata of the work
ers. Not only the members of the
Communist Party need practical and
theoretical understanding, militant
trade unionists need it as well. The

FORWARD AGENT
FEARS WORKERS,
BOLTS MEETING
"Rule or Ruin" Policy
of YELLOW Socialists


MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Jan. s1.-
Rather than lose the presidency Of
the board Of directors Of the Labor
Lyeeum Association, D. Shler, Mime
apoIs agent Of the Forward and his
group, bolted the shareholders meet
ing.
Believing that he would be defeat
ed for the presidency, he attempted
shortly before midnight to stampede
the entire membership out of the hall,
making an issue of the fact that the
left wing was putting out printed
slate.
Protest Against shler.
Out of a meeting of over two hun
bred share holders, seventy remained
until after one A. M. to express their
protest against the splitting tactics
of Shier locally and of the Forward
group nationality and to sign petit
tion censoring the present majority
of the board of directors for destroy
ing the meeting and calling for new
meeting within two weeks Many
more would have remained, but they
had to go to work the next day and
they left the meeting Those that
remained were workers, while those
that led the stampede were mostly
small manufacturers and albright
hicks" who are trying to gain control
of this institution.
In the protest meeting Immediately
following the disturbance 1t was de-
monstrated by Mogelevsky, Supac, Lo-
ketz and others that by means of the
recent mortgage made out to S. Fried
man, a local lawyer, Shier had COM
pleted the sell-out Of the association
which for fourteen years the work
ers had helped to build.
Expose Yellow Socialists.
Loketz showed that altho years ago
in the old socialist daily, Shier work
ed for progress, he is now allied with
an organization nationally and a
group locally that attempts to destroy
every forward move of the rank and
file. He is now a Job holder and a
publicity hunter. He is detrimental
to the Labor Lyceum Association, he
declared, and must be eliminated as
any parasite in the working class
movement.
The regular annual meeting Of the
share holders in the Labor Lyceum
Association was called to order at
S:15 by D. Shier, the present presi-
dent of the association. After the
report Of the board of directors it is
customary for the membership to ex-
press their opinions on the policy pur-
sued for the past year. But when
Dave Moses raised the pertinent issue
of the contract made with the For
wards agency barring all other publ
cations except the Forwars from the
Labor Lyceum, he was ruled out of
order by the chairman, who began to
attack Moses for raising the issue.
Meeting Sunday Afternoon.
Shier's maneuver to instigate an un-
official election of board Of directors
and then to take the issue into CAPT
talist courts was defeated. A new
meeting Of the share holders will be
held Sunday afternoon, Jan. 10, at 2
O'Clock, in the Labor Lyceum Audi
torium.

Chicago Business Men
Try to Organize New
Crew of Red Baiters
lContinued frnm PAGE u


attempt to launch another "open shop"
drive against organized labor, and,
like every other attempt, the drive
starts first against the left wing of
the movement. One of the reporters
from a well known capitalist paper
declared that he was positive that
Samuel M. INSULT street railway
magnate, gas and electric monopolist,
spends money lavishly to keep his
wife's name in electric lights in front
of theatres where ancient wheezes are
revived for the edification of the
bourgeoisie, is back Of the thing.
All in all it looks as though a group
of former government agents, now
out of jobs, are trying to separate
the gullible Chicago Rabbits from
some of their cash.
Among those active in creating the
new red batting organization and who
were present at the pow-wow were
John j. Mitchell, Jr.. banker, and heir
to millions, who never worked a day
in all his life; Charles Piez, president
of the Illinois manufacturers associa-
ton and one of the most notorious
apostles of the scab shop in the
United States; William B. Dawes,
brother of the clownish vice president
Of the United States and president OF
the Chicago chamber of commerce.
One Joseph b. Strauss, described as
bridge architecta is president Of
the American citizenship foundation"
and young Mitchell is treasurer.
The one sinister feature thus far
revealed is a conspiracy for new
attack on the foreign born workers by
creating factory organization in order
to single them out and terrorize them
so they will be afraid to join any
sort of labor organization.
We Laughgat Them.
AS for their anti.Bolshevik activity,
we laugh at their twaddle. Grim and
immutable economic laws operate to
make conditions ever worse for all
workers and our party, following a
true Bolshevik course, will be able to
reach and influence ever larger num-
bers OF workers who will realize that
the only solution for their problems is
the revolution.
Their talk against us can do no
harm, for they thereby attract atten-
ton TO US, and when the workers be-
gin thinking about Bolshevism they
become Bolsheviks, for the simple
reason that our facts can blast any
manufactured fiction the patriots for
profit try to instill into the minds OF
the working class.

Three days later Louise, all expec-
fancy, put the finishing touches to the
living rOom-a small Christmas tree
gracefully distinguished M end.
Wreaths hung In the windows and
little sprigs Of holly Ornamented the
center ceiling light. Louise turned
on the circuit Of Christmas tree lights
and sat down to admire the tree and
collect herself. She was a little wOr-
ried. What In the world had prompted
her to be so brazen2 Never before
had she acted so. To say the least,
her customary timidity had certainly
been put to hight-had deserted her.
She had not long to ponder, for the
dOorbell rang.
Bert, the picture Of neatness, looked
more than his usual six feet in height
as he stood alongside Of Louise when
he greeted her. For the first few
minutes the evening seemed doomed to
be a miserable failure. Finally Louise
could stand it no longer.
