HIGH COURT TO GET
WURZBACH CHARGE
U. S. Supreme Tribunal Will Re.
view Accusation Against
Ex-Texas Lawmaker.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.
Proceedings brought by the Govern
ment against former Representative
Harry M. Wurzbach, Republican, Texas,
charging he had used unlawful contri-
buttons from Federal office holders in
his campaign for reelection, were today
held to be entitled to a Supreme Court
review.
The court announced that the Gov
eminent had presented a case within
its jurisdiction and that the case would
be reviewed on its merits.
Wurzbach, residing at Segu!n. Tex,
had represented the fourteenth dis
trict in Congress as Republican for
four teams and was candidate for re-
election to the present Congress. He
contested the election of his Demo-
cratic opponent.
He was indicted and charged with
having received as Representative in
Congress political contributions from
certain Federal officeholderS. The in
'dctment was set aside by the trial
court on the ground that the contrlbu-
tions were to be used for primary cleo
ton purposes and that the statute I'M
der which he had been indicted was not
intended to cover such contributions.
The trial court also held that If the
statute did cover primary elections 1t
probably was unconstitutional.

1.-Comrades Bittelman and Fos-
ter opposed the proposal to endorse
Panken conditionally. In this they
were correct. Instead, these COM
rades proposed that the Central
Committee of the Party should Of
fer a united front to the Socialist
Party locally. In other words, in
stead of a conditional endorsement
of Panken, our comrades of the OPP
position even went further to the
Right and fostered the illusion that
our Party could have common pro-
gram with the Socialist Party for
the municipal ticket as a whole in
New York City in 1927. Instead of
endorsing conditionally one Social
ist Party candidate our Opposition
flat endorsement of about
thirty S. P. candidates. This error
showed itself in the following pro-
posal of Comrade Foster, in the Pol
com meeting of October 81, 1927:
"That the policy of the New
York DEC in giving qualified sup
port to Panken (the socialist
party candidate for judge) was
incorrect. The Party should have
approached the s. P. with general
proposals for the establishment of
a united front labor ticket in the
New York elections, based on
minimum program" (Our empha-
sis.)

OTHER RIGHT ERRORS OF THE OPPOSITION.

ing measures against elements with
in their own ranks deviating from
the correct feminist line either
openly to the Right or as in the
case of Trotskyism, when such de-
viations were camouflaged with
Left phrases. We can cite the fol-
lowing three typical instances to
show the correctness of our con-
clusion.
az The consistent protection given
to the Right wing in the Finnish
Fraction (Sulkanen, Askeli, Aine,
etc.
b. The resistance by the Opposi-
ton in the Polbureau to the pro-
posals for censuring the Minnesota
Right wingers on the Labor Party
Shipstead question.
c) The extreme slowness with
which the Opposition reacted to the
development of the Cannon-Trotsky
outbreak in its own ranks. 1t must
be stated here that recently the OPP
position admitted its error on this
question of it's slowness in bringing
the Cannon-Trotsky development be-
fore the Party.
That's why it is no accident that
throughout the Party discussion and
particularly the membership meet
ings, the representatives of the OPP
position were so pessimistic and

8.-Only few weeks ago two
prominent supporters of the Oppo-
sition in the New York District,
Comrades Levitt and Seligman,
were co-signers of a statement is
sued by Brookwood, denouncing the
Communist movement and kowtow-
ing to the American Federation of
Labor bureaucracy. This outright
dangerous Right wingism was con-
demned by the Polbureau.
9.-In the Minnesota District, sup
porters of the Opposition have sys-
tematically resisted the Party's poll
icy of fighting Shipstead as a be-
trayer and destroyer of the labor
party movement. In this district,
individuals like Vincent Dunno,
Skoglund, Hedlund, Coover, have
Systematically placed Farmer-Labor
Party discipline as against and
above Party discipline. These in
dividuals have since been expelled
from the Party as Trotskyists. Tho
these erstwhile supporters of the
Opposition have refused to fight
Shipstead in the past, they are now
vigorously fighting the Party.
10.-The Opposition has not only
been tolerant and conciliatory to-
wards Right wing mistakes but has
even rendered protection to COM
rades committing Right wing err
rors and has been very slow in TAX

2.-This opportunistic attitude to-
wards the socialist party was con-
tinued by the Opposition even after
the Central Committee had corrected
its Panken error, even after the re-
ceipt Of the April 18th letter of the
Comintern Political Secretariat cri-
itching our Party for sending the
open letter to the socialist party.
Notice the following incident. The
Philadelphia District Committee pro-
posed the sending of an open letter
to the socialist party and to the
socialist officials of Reading, Pa. 1t
sent this draft letter to the Agit-
prop Dept. for approval and correc-
ton. Comrade Bittelman took
charge of the matter as represen-
tative of the Agitprop Dept. In
stead of correcting the error of the
Philadelphia comrades, Comrade Bit
lehman aggravated this Right wing
error by his own Right Improve
ments." For instance, Comrade Bit
lehman himself wrote the following
sentences into the draft letter of the
Philadelphia comrades, who later
themselves corrected their error.
Wrote Comrade Bittelman:
"The November elections, which
resulted in placing the socialist
party and number of it's most
prominent leaders in control of the
administration of the city of Read
ing, afford you 1.-THE S. P. govern
ment officials) an opportunity to
ORGANIZE AND INSPIRE THE
WORKERS FOR STRUGGLE
AGAINST THE EMPLOYERS
OFFENSIVE" (Bittelman addi-
ton in capitals.)
This opportunist gem went on to
state:
despite your failure up to the
present to meet and deal with
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-02-07

these issues we SUGGEST that
you MUST yet, while it is not too
late, prove by energetic action
along this line that you have not
altogether abandoned the prin-
ciples of class struggle which you
professed at one time, that you
will discontinue your present poll
cies which, WHETHER YOU
WANT 1T OR NOT, SERVE THE
INTERESTS OF THE CAPITAL
lists, and work vigorously and
consistently in the furtheranee Of
the real needs of the working
class"
No comment is necessary on the
above Right wing conception of the
socialist party as worsened by Com
rade Bittelman. But let us close
with the conclusion Comrade Bittel-
man reached in this letter which he
approved for sending to the city
government officials of the socialist
party:
eve consider it our duty in
behalf of the workers whom we
represent to give you every CO.
operation in the carrying out of
this program, if you will under
take to do So"
Then Comrade Bittelman, to make
sure that his opportunist line
reaches and poisons the maximum
number of workers possible, wrote
the following foot-note as an in
struction to the Philadelphia conf
rades:
"The value of this document will
be exactly nil if the sending of it
is not followed up with a wide
distribution of it among the
masses. :"
Comrades might ask where Com
rade Bittelman gets the audacity to
