lutionary position. In advising their
membership, the masses to vote for
the socialist party or the socialist
labor party, when there are candi-
dates in the field representing the
position of the Comintern they are
helping to support the bitterest en-
emies of the revolution. The Prole-
tartan Party claims to support the
Communist International, but gives
it only Lip support. Actually by OPP
posing the Workers Party they are
in constant opposition to the Third
International. They condone one
breach after another and like all
parties of the opposition swing to a
more and more counter-revolutionary
position.
We urge on sincere members of
the Proletarian' Party who have at
heart the best interests of the revo-
lutionary movement to realize the
position in which their leadership is
placing them and that they are be-
ing forced more and more into a
counter-revolutionary position. We
call on them to join the Workers
Parry and the International Revolu-
tionary Movement.

Canton, and they were helping the
strikers. Why, may we ask, were
there no organizers of the A. F. of
L. in Canton doing this work? Why
do they spend their time in hotels,
instead Of on the battlefield? For
every good reason: the A. F. of L.
does not believe in fights to improve
conditions; hence, wherever a strug-
gle begins, the A. F. of L. is con-
spicuously absent.
All the warnings of the A. F. of
L. will not stop the Communists
from helping in all strikes; and all
such warnings will not keep the
workers from welcoming the assis-
lance of the Communists. The day
of such bugaboos is over, Mr.. Green.
This is the day of fight and fight

IF there was any doubt as to the
position of the Proletarian Party
in relation to the Third International
it was dispelled at a meeting con-
Quoted by Charles O'Brien, member
of the P. P. National Executive
Committee and their organizer in
New York City. He spoke on 1.-THE
Presidential Campaign and the Pos
sibility of War"
Two things became manifest in
the course of the question period.
Questions were asked by several
former members of the Proletarian
Party who are now in the ranks of
the Workers Party. These points
are that the Proletarian Party in
it's irreconcilable opposition to the
Workers Party must necessarily
oppose the Comintern and must
necessarily act in a counter-revo-
lutionary manner.
Comrade Dave Young asked the
question: Is there not a swing to the
left in many trade unions today;
noticeably the miners, the textile
workers and the needle trades and
is not this sentiment being led by
the Workers (Communist) Party?
In answer to this the speaker said
that there was a swing to the left
in these trade unions but that the
Workers Party was not involved.
This was a fragrant disregard of
the truth. He also INDUCED, in the
traditional Proletarian Party way,
in some gossip he had heard regard
ing members of the Workers Party.
Comrade Dave Cohen asked sew
eral questions and by request of the
chairman Jumped them together
They were as follows: Do you be-
lieve in Communist discipline? APP
piled in this country and interna-
tionally? Do you agree that the
leadership of Communism over the
world is in the hands of the Third
International? Is it not a decision
of the Comintern that the Workers
Party be it's American Section? Is
it not a contradiction to believe in
Communist discipline but not follow
the decision of the Comintern in re-
lation to this important matter?
In reply to these questions the
speaker said that Comrade Cohen
had been a member of the Prole-
tartan Party for four years and had
never learned anything, that he
reasoned metaphysically and that
he had Joined the Workers Party
because of his self conceit. He in
dulged in more gossip but said not a
word regarding the Third Interna-
| tional
Comrade Ted Greenwald next
asked this question: There is a
presidential campaign going on and
the Workers Party has Foster and
Gitlow in the field. How does the
Proletarian Party advise its mem
bers and the people that it comes
in contact with to vote? The speak
er replied that the Proletarian
Party did not consider Foster and
Gitlow Communists and that there
fore the N. E. c. of the Proletarian
Party in their meeting had decided
to advise their speakers as follows
To urge the masses to vote for any
one of the following parties; The
Socialist Party, the Socialist Labor
Party or the Workers Party.
This is one of many instances in
which the Proletarian Party be-
cause Of its opposition to the Ameri
can Section of the Comintern has
assumed definitely counter-revo,
