ity against the workers. Roosevelt,
Tammany Hall and the republican
legislature will take the vote that
they have secured as a mandate for
a more brutal policy against the
workers. In the needle trades, the
workers can expect that the Schles-
myers, the socialist bureaucrats, will
conduct policy of fastening more
firmly the company unionism and
sweatshop system upon the workers.
But the rank and file workers in the
needle trades have shown that they
understand that they can expect
nothing from the socialists, repub-
licans and democrats.
Must Fight Bosses Politically.
"But great masses of them have
yet to learn that they cannot fight
out their battles against company
unionism, long hours, low wages
and general sweatshop conditions
merely upon the trade union field.
They must support militant trade
unionism. the new unions that have
been formed but they must fight
against the bosses-against the
bosses political parties-against the
government of the city and state of
New York in order to win their
struggle for emancipation from the
poverty and oppression they endure
under capitalism"
"They must give support to the
Communist Party as the Party that
leads the battles of the workers on
the trade union field as we'll as upon
the entire field of the class struggle.
They must direct their attention to
all the lackeys in office, to the CAPT.
talist state that must be overthrow
in order to achieve their emancipa-
ton.
"The election campaign of the
Communist Party has drawn greater
of workers into the strug-
gle. The Party itself has learned to
conduct a mass campaign, to bring
the message of Communism to the
broad sections of the workers. The
parades, mass meetings, the meeting
in Madison Square Garden, the dis
tribution of more than million
pieces of literature in New York
City alone shows that the Party has
learned to utilize this field Of ac-
tivity to reach the workers with the
message of Communism. This ex-
perience will be brought to bear not
only in the coming election campaign
but in the day to day struggle be-
tween election campaigns. T h e
Communist Party in this New York
district has been the leader of mass
struggles. These have been chiefly
on the economic field but the Party
has demonstrated in the election
campaign that the Communist Party
is the leader of mass struggles of
the workers upon all fields of battle.
Forward to Greater Struggles.
"With the support that we have
secured, with the greater conscious
ness of the revolutionary role that
we are playing among the masses,
we will go forward to greater VIC
tories to carry on the mass CAM
paigns that we have made, for a
struggle against the growing inn
perialist war danger, for the defense
of the Soviet Union, for the organi-
cation of the unorganized, for GUST
ing the reactionary leaders from the
trade unions, for exposing and de-
stroying the yellow party of CAPT
talism, the socialist party. We will
intensity still further our campaign
among the Negro workers with the
assurance that the Negro workers
that are losing faith in the capitalist
parties will follow the leadership of
our Party in the struggle for their
liberation from oppression under
