are permitted to crush their workers, the
leaders of the Central Labor Council of New York
and the leaders of the Executive Council of the
American Federation of Labor felt compelled to
step forward in favor of the workers. But the sue
of the present struggles of the traction work.
ers will demand considerably more than friendly
statements of labor leaders What is imperative at
this moment is full utilization of all the economic
and political power of New York labor in support
of the demands and struggles of the traction work
ers.
The demands of the traction workers-the abro-
cation of the Hedley contract, wage increase and
the recognition Of the unon-are economic demands
primarily But the strategic nature of the traction
utilities, the big and powerful economic interests
involved in it; the contradictions of interest even
within the capitalists in the traction situation, the
repercussions that successful traction strike VIII
have throughout the country-all these elements
are making the struggles of the New York tFac-
ton workers a class conflict of first rate magni-
tude. This means political conflict which must
be prepared for and handled by the labor movement
with a complete economic and political program
looking toward the fullest mobilization of all the
indutrial and political of labor in support
of the traction struggles. Only in this way Will
the struggle of the traction workers be won and
labor as whole strengthened.

gle against the monstrost.e ,hperla
ISM
The Ohio coal operators are preparing to open
their mines with scab labor by equipping them
selves with armed thugs, machine guns, etc. new
and sinister is being made to break the MIN
ers' strike but Lewis and his henchmen don't
to notice it. And Matthew Vol, vice president of
the American Federation of Labor engaged III de-
stroyng the labor movement among the New York
needle trades workers, cannot be expected" to pay
much attention to the miners strike except to en-
courage the reactonary and treacherous policies of
the Lewis administration
Rank and file sentiment and spirit among the
miners has not been weakened, despite the demon
alizng tactics of Lewis. The miners want to fight
but the reactonary leadership would not let them
mobilize all their resources. The deliberations of
the Ditrict One Convention of the U. M. W. of A.
are indicative of a stropg sentiment of militancy
among the rank and file which the opposition in
the convention has not yet fully expressed. 1t is
becoming absolutely imperative that the left wing
and the progressves in the miners union steps for
ward more militantly than before to resist the
treacherous moves of the Lewis administration and
to strengthen the ranks of the strikers to insure
their victory The extension of the strike into the
anthracite region thus making it national strike
for a national agreement is at present the most
urgent and imperative step in the struggle against
the coal operators.
The existing traction situation in New York City
is full of great and important possibilities for the
strengthening of the labor movement economically
and politically and in every other way. But to
achieve this end, the labor movement will have to
display real progressive and militant leadership
which this must be said) is not to be found in the
circles that dominate today either the Central Labor
Council of New York the Executive Council Of
the American Federation of Labor
This progressive and militant leadership, which
is essential for full and proper utilization of
the traction situation ftr New York labor, will and
must come forward from the ranks of the labor
movement, from it's left wing and progressive ee-
ments. And the first prerequisite for this is a
definite program and clear line of policy based
upon the widest application of the united front.
The workers employed by the New York traction
companies decidedly against the company union
and against the labor conditions imposed upon them
by the Hedley contract. By the time these lines
appear in print, these workers may be strike
to enforce their economic demands and to establish
genuine union. Because of the pressure from the
workers, and because of the political complications
that may arise for of the dominant labor re
dictionaries in New York if the traction companie
