Federal Courts and the Southern Workers

The United States government, in which Hoover's

blows at them.

But while this was being DONE Fred Beal facing frame

cell in Gastonia, hang the heroic struggle of the New
Orleans strikers and pointing out to them that the murder
police attack against them had its counterpart in the
police attack the Gastonia strikers in their tent colony
June Z.
Beal stated: eve view your strike additional proof
of the growing revolt of the southern workers against the
intolerable conditions of exploitation
And he right than he knew for the latest

tive. It's acceptance does not con-
denim but cleanses. By accepting
this criticism We declare that in
spite of all of our serious mistakes
ard misdeeds we are revolutionists.
We declare our readiness to prove
cur Communist, our revolutionary
quality by uprooting our own errors
and misdeeds and by supplementing
them with conscious, Communist &C
ton on the line of our world Party
and, especially, on the line of the
Sixth World Congress. Non-ac-
ceptance of the Comintern criticism,
on the other hand, is a declaration
Of unwillingness to abandon the err
ror of yesterday and therefore an
indication that the error of yester-
cay is the policy of today.
1t will, therefore, be necessary to
fight against the opponents of the
E. C. C. I. decisions not on the
formal grounds of non-acceptance,
but on the basic political grounds
that in the noncompliance there is
expressed a determination to con-
tinue the wrong and dangerous pol
icies of the past and an insistance
on having policies other than those
of our world Party. 1t is an express
sion of a desire to initiate into, and
to practice within our Communist
World Party the practice of the de-
cayed Second International: Every
party for itself and the capitalist
devil take the proletariat!"
1t is evident that the very life of
cur Party as part of our Commu-
mist World Party is at stake. We
NUT preserve and strengthen this
l'so. We must do this by building
the Party, at the same time cleans

The C0mqlnteyn Address 10 Our Party

solution must not be permitted to
remain a mere organizational one,
but must be turned into an ideolog-
ical one.
Pro-party loyalty must be devel-
oped Systematically so that the
whole Party will be turned into an
eager guard against any manifesto
ton of fractional spirit and against
any attempt of fractional activity or
mobilization. There are many as
poets of such Party loyalty. The
sending of comrades for work to
different territories and localities
will strengthen the Party In the
past attempts to dispose of the
forces of the Party in such manner
were used for or were considered
factional dispersal.
Our Party is especially weak in
local leadership. The district and
national leadership can inspire, can
guide and correct, but cannot re-
place local leadership. With sys-
tematic colonization policy, there
fore, our Party could be strength
ened enormously. The Party would
become a real revolutionary ad-
vance guard of the working class, an
army, which distributes its forces
on the basis of the needs Of the
struggle and does not permit ar
anarchist practice of leaving to
every soldier in the ranks the choice
of his own position in battle, or the
choice whether he wants to take any
position or not.
Supplying local leadership, espe-
cially IN the industrial towns, away
from the main Party centers, will
reduce the turnover in membership
and will lend stability and perman-
ency to the fruits of our organiza-
tional efforts.
The most important prerequisite
for the complete eradication of fac
tionalism is the establishment of
strict discipline of the leading COM
mittees. In the past any motion
