Emphasis on Organization.
The program of organization of
the unorganized workers was estab-
lished as practical program, not an
abstract slogan, a program which will
be the center of the everyday work
of the left wing, leading directly to
the organization CT the workers in
the existing unions, or where this
proves impossible, the establishment,
of new unions. The central import
ance of forming a Labor Party was
reaffirmed. The struggle for inner
union democracy, as part of the
struggle against the capitalist often

The conference seriously tackled
the problem Of organization of the
left wing and progressive forces.

conference resolved, and adopted
practical plans, to remedy this situa-

their proper perspective in the whole
world situation. The role of American
imperialism was recognized; the nee

death struggle of the miners in
America, and fraternal contact with
the heroic toiling masses of China.

marked the emotional side of the con-
ference and gave it it's most definite
character. It was not routine meet

tailed work; it was at all times a
gathering of strength, a renewal of
inspiration, a strengthening of the
bonds of class solidarity.
