fduction. In the large factories these confer
ences are also organized on a sectional or de
partmental basis
The production committee, composed both
OF workers and technical personnel, helps to
arrange the program for the production con
ference and also sees to it that its resolu-
tions are put into life"
We found that these factory and DEPART
mental production committees have largely
eliminated the old conflicts and frictions be-
tween the workers and the technical men.
This IS partly because the specialists have
become absorbed in the fascinating lob of
industrial reconstruction. and partly because
the unions have trained thousands of their
own members for technical posts Chain sys-
TENS, mechanical operations, "straight-lne"
production, specialization and standardization
are part Of their dream of an industrialized
Russia, just as they are the topic of constant
discussion and planning among the union
workers.
In order to attract the engineers and tech
nical specialists into the activities of the
unions, special Engineering and Technical Sec
lions are formed both by the national and
district organizations. These sections usually
of the regular union congresses. Although
they have their own funds, they have no sep
arate craft autonomy and work under the
control of the central committee of the ma
tional union Many of these sections publish
special engineering and technical journals for
their membership.
Summarizing the work of the production
committees and conferences during the past
two years, President Tomsky told us that they
have increased the output of the Individual
workers. facilitated inventions, and helped in
the naturalization Of industry and the organ
ization of work by scientific methods. They
serve to free the plants from many petty de-
fects in the work and organization which have
tended to decrease output"
This production work is one of the most
and novel tasks of the unions in
Russia. 1t is capable of unlimited develop
ment And it brings out clearly the part that
the trade unions are playing in the whole

OF seniority. No worker, however, can be a
member of more than one union at a time
Workers join the union voluntarily There
is no 'closed shop as the term is used in the
United States. There is, however, a prefer
ential shop" in which under the collective
agreement, the employer agrees to hire union
members first if they can be secured.
Production Work of the Unions.
Union management cooperation" is a fact
in Soviet Russia. They condemn the B. & o.
plan and other such experiments in America
but have introduced in their own plants the
most friendly collaboration between the tech
meal managers and the trade unions This
emphasis on the naturalization" of the in
dustrlal process characterizes the Russian
unions from the smallest factory committee
to the Federal Council of Trade Unions At
the last congress of the unions in 1926 the
resolution Of this question read in part as fol-
lows
The industrialzation of the country, the
need for capital and the raising of the ma
terial and cultural standards of the workers
requires the further raising of the efficiency
of work. 1t requires the constant attention of
the trade unions. . The working class and
its trade unions by working steadily and
methodically for the development of industry
and the whole Soviet economy not only Gre
ates the conditions for the further raising of
the material and cultural level of the work
ers life, but also insures the success of the
building Of socialism in our country"
To carry out the resolutions on production,
passed at this as we'll as at previous All-Rus-
sian congresses, the unions, through the fac
tory committees, have organized in all state
factories and enterprises production commit
tees. There are over $4,000 of these COM
mittees in the U. S. S. r. They have also
called production conferences, the purposes of
which are to draw more workers into the
building of our economy" to teach them more
about production, improve their qualifica-
tons, to stimulate invention and to establish
a stronger social control over the economic
organs of the state.
Everywhere we went we found these pro-
duction conferences at work, composed of all
the workers in the factory who show volun-
tary interest in increasing and improving pro-

Social Insurance.

Social insurance carried out on a
very large scale in the u. S. s.. R.
adds considerably to the material
well-heing of the working class. This
system has been greatly developed
during the last three years. It en-
braces millions of workers and makes
much better provisions for wage earn
ers than are made in many west Euro
pean countries. Social insurance in
Soviet Russia is compulsory. There
is system of obligatory contributions
or the part of enterprises and insti-
buttons based on wages and salaries.
Such financial basis has given a
sound foundation to social insurance
making it permanent contributory
factor in regard to the well-being of
the working class.
At present, social insurance is a
comprehensive system applied prac-
tica.ly to all people who work for
wages and salaries. Up till now agri-
cultural laborers were not included in
this system, but with the beginning
of the present financial year, they
viii also benefit by social insurance.

Inter-Union Organization.

TINE highest organ of the trade union move
l. ment in the u. S. S. r. is the All-Unior
Congress of Trade Unions which meets every
two years to decide general policies and to
select an executive committee of about 17O
members known as the Central Council of
Trade Unions &C.. c. T. W. This council
chooses presidium to carry on its work be-
tween sessions of the council The presidium,
corresponding in general way to the Execu-
tive Council of the American Federation of
Labor, puts into effect the policies determined
upon at the congresses and at the sessions of
the Central Council.
The Central Council coordnates and directs,
in a general way, the work of the % vertically
organized industrial unions already described.
It also coordinates and leads the work of the
lower inter-union organizations such as the
Councils of Trade Unions in the provinces and
other variously named territories of the u.
S. S. r. For example, the Moscow Provincial
Council of Trade Unions or the Ural Terrtor-
ial Council of Trade Unions are under the gen
eral supervision of the C. C. T. U. Such a
Council of Trade Unions unites all the sepa-
rate unions IN the given area. It represents
the joint interests of the unions in its terri
tory on various governmental and economic
bodies where counsel with the unions is al
ways taken.
The functions of such an inter-union body
are similar to, though vastly more extensive,
than those of State Federation of Labor in
the United States.
The 1900 delegates to the All-Union Con-
gress are chosen not at the lower inter-union
congresses or at the national congresses of the
separate industrial unions but at the lower
provincial, or territorial, congresses of the
separate unions. For each 10000 members a
union is entitled to one delegate However,
for the thinly populated sections of the coun-
try where no one union in district contains
10000 members, the delegates may be elected
at the Inter-Union Congress.

arming Of all factions. He also sent
assurances to all American diplomatic
representatives that proper precau-
tons had been taken. However, the
troops stationed in Jalisco have been
in close harmony with the local gov
ernor, Margarito Ramirez, a railway
y orker who is in turn closely in har-
mony with the local anti-CROM labor
clements.
Here the departure of the troops
to the mines was delayed from day
to day. When they finally appeared
on the scene, the strikers concealed
their weapons and the troops then
prevented both factions from enter
ing the mine. On the pretext of
pursuing nearby rebels, the troops
were withdrawn a day or so later,
and the radical strikers returned to
their posts.
Gales Aids Governor.
While Morones sent the GROIN
head of the Bureau of Labor the scene
to settle the dispute, President Gales
took it out of his hands and gave the
Governor of the State, Ramirez, the
right to determine which was the
majority union, and therefore which
union should have the right to deal
with the company and go before the
arbitration board if necessary.
In the meantime Washington pro-
tests continued. The company hur-
riedly hired non-union workers at
high wages to swell the ranks of the
GROIN union. But the payrolls of
the date when the strike commenced
disclosed this strategy and the
established union was recognized. The
companies at first refused to resume
operations. Later they decided to
the major demands of the strikers.
In the meantime intrigue had set
in against Sequeiros and Reyes Perez.
When attempting to leave Guadala-
jara to celebrate the victory, they
were detained on the city. The local
legislature which is not entirely in
harmony with the governor, in secret
session voted to deport the two Com
munists from the state. Whether
this will be accomplished seems
doubtful, as it may be blocked by the
governor.
Gales bitches Morones.
As the first important instance in |
which President Gales failed to back |
up Morones and the GROIN, the oc-
currence has especial significance. All
Of the local elements are strongly
prot bregon and the conflict has
meaning not only for the struggle
or the development Of independent
labor groups but also for
he presidential election.
