Life and Struggles in Ireland szT:1 05l.A.t
By T. J. O'Flaherty

This year, however, a Workers
Party was organized, in which neither
the Transport Union nor the Workers
Union are officially represented. The
active leaders Of the new party are
former members OF the Communist
Party OF Ireland. The infant party
has not much prospect of immediate
success, as the objective conditions
are not at al favorable to the rapid
growth Of Communist Party. Never
theless, those comrades seem to be
tackling a difficult job with courage
and enthusiasm. Having no funds to
publish a printed sheet, they are issu-
ing mimeographed bulletin called
"The Irish Hammer and Plough" from
AZ Parnell Square, Dublin. Tho not
an affiliated section of the Commu-
mist International, the party follows
the political and industrial line of the
Comintern and urges united front Of
the warning trade union factions
against the employers.
Evidently the comrades have learned
a good deal from their past mistakes
and have discarded the leftism with
which the late Communist Party was
afflicted.
The rebel spirit which the British
failed to quench is not dead in Ire
land. But it is taking nap. Peadar
ODonnel, militant republican leader,
and one Of the few in that movement
who has a social program for the work
ers, attributes the present apathy to
the strain of the long-drawn-out strug-
gle that lasted eight years without
intermission. The general opinion is
that this condition will soon pass away
and that more militant spirit will
soon manifest itself among the Irish
workers and the republican national
lists.
Communist propaganda is sorely
needed in Ireland and the attempt OF
the Workers Party of Ireland to sup
ply this want deserves every possible
encouragement.

coal companies had a practical monopa
oily on the Dublin market. Larkin
conceived an idea and then took ac-
ton. He organized a coal company,
made contract with British COM
pany to supply him with black diar
monds and now the union is doing q
flourishing business with the Scotch
sucking their thumbs.
OF course everything is not easy
sailing. There is sometimes trouble
about cash and quarrels with commit
tees over this thing and that thing,
and there is also a feeling that bust
ness and unionism do not go hand in
hand.
The Workers Union Of Ireland has
no publication. Its organ, the Irish
Worker, went out of business over a
year ago..
The membership is probably in the
vicinity of one thousand, tho this can
not be officially learned, as no figures
have been made public.
There are two central bodies in
Dublin, the Workers Council and the
Dublin Trade Council The former is
dominated by the Transport Union
and was organized in the early days
Of the Russian revolution. The latter
has not large utilization and is domi-
mated by P. T. DAILY, formerly an ally
Of Larkin, but now a member of the
executive committee of the Workers
Party of Ireland, the only organization
in Ireland of a Communist character.
The Workers Party of ireland.
OINCE the Communist Party of Ire
~ land was liquidated in 1928 there
has been no organization there that
systematically issued Communist prop
uganda. The members of the dis
solved party maintained themselves
as a unit in a Connolly educational
society. Under the guidance Of Rob
ert Stewart, now acting secretary of
the Communist Party OF Great Brit
ain, plans were made to launch a
Workers Party in May, 1925. The
program and platform was published
and the prospects were bright, when,
to the dismay Of the organizers, few
days before the scheduled date of the
conference that was to launch the
party, statement appeared in the
public press to the effect that the
Workers Union of Ireland would
have nothing to do with it. The pro-
ject was then indefinitely postponed.
