Resolution of the N e. c. of the
WV. L. on the British Situation

After a discussion of the British sit
uation, the N. E. c. of the Y. w. L..
reaches the following conclusions:
/. The analysis of the last plenum
of the Comintern about the character
of the sterilization OF capitalism is
correct. The British strike dealt an
other tremendous blow to this relative
sterilization and brought out more
clearly the sharp class contradictions
within the present situation and the
inevitability of a revolutionary solu-
ton of the social problems in the near
future.
The British strike had big influence
on the world labor movement, tremen-
dous demonstrations in the Union of
Socialist Soviet Russia, Germany and
other countries. Big response toward
the strike proves that this strike
strengthens the revival and left ten
denotes in the international labor
movement.
2. The English strike has shown
the necessity for the development of
the economic struggle into political
one and its development to higher
forms of struggle.
3. One of the main lessons of the
recent events is that the general strike
is decisive phase In the struggle for
victory of the British proletariat. The
strike has emphasized the outstanding
role OF the trade unions in England
and has shown that they form the
basic organizations of the proletariat
in its revolutionary struggles and
fight for power.
4. At the present stage the imme-
date tasks Of the movement are:
a. A sharp struggle, especially
theological, against centrist elements
(so-called left wing" leaders, Purcell,
Hicks, etc.,.
b. A persistent struggle 10 change
the present leadership OF the trade
unions and to replace II by new ele-
ments able to lead the decisive strug.
gle against the bourgeoisie and it's
lackeys.
5. The great role OF the trade
unions emphasizes very strongly the
need for work in the trade unions and
for winning influence and leadership
In these organizations. The tendency
to leave the trade unions, stimulated
by the treachery Of the leaders, is es-
pecially dangerous at this time and
effectively helps the capitalists and
the reactionary leaders. II would be a
serious mistake to demand the with
drawal Of the Russian trade unions
from the Anglo-Russion unity com
mittee. Likewise would be the re.

vision Of the tactic of the struggle
for w. T. U. U.
6. The English strike has empha-
sized again that the Communist Party
alone can be the real leader of the
proletariat. Hence the task of build
ing mass Communist Party remains
the imperative prerequisite for the
victory of the British proletariat. This
must be emphasized now because, not
withstanding the mass influence of the
party, it is still weak.
z. The British strike proved once
more the necessity of the tactic of the
united front. Opportunistic mistakes
in every form must be avoided, fought
and criticized, but it is fully as neces-
sary at the same time to fight decis-
lively against any attempts at revision
of the tactic of the united front,
tactic the correctness of which the
entire experience of the last few years
has proved.
s. The line of the British Commu-
mist Party in the recent strike was
correct. The attacks of the ultra-left
elements in Germany are utterly
wrong and effectively support the
opportunists and bourgeoisie in Eng
land. The ultra-left elements-many
of whom are already outside the COM
intern-only weaken the position of
the English party in its struggle
against the opportunist leaders in the
labor movement.
8. The conduct OF the Russian
party and OF the Russian proletariat
gives the lie to the charges OF the
degeneration" of the Soviet power,
of the Russian proletariat and of the
Russian party. The events have shown
in the clearest manner that the Rus
sian party continues it's international
list, feminist revolutionary traditions
and remains, as ever. faithful to the
interests OF the international socialist
revolution.
10. The bitter struggle OF the min.
ers In England puts before us the
necessity OF strengthening tremen-
dously the work OF rendering them
further assistance. The decision OF
the A. +. OF l.. to assist the miners is
OF tremendous Importance for the
American labor movement. All efforts
must be concentrated TO raise these
issues In all trade union local and
other working-class organizations
Besides agitating for the International
solidarity OF the proletariat, II Is nee.
essary to organize concrete financial
help for the striking miners, TO pre-
vent the sending of coal to England.
and TO develop a broad mass move.
