the Right Danger

an important part not only within
the YCL, but as a first rate docu-
ment in the Party discussion in gen.
eral. After the publication of this
declaration on page devoted to dis
cussion in "PAvant Garde," the
Young rank and file Communists ex-
pressed their opinion not only on
questions specifically related to the
Youth but also on problems of the
Party, and all of them unanimously
condemned every hesitation or op-
portunist deviation and emphasized
the real existence of the Right
danger.
In "PHumanite" also, a number
of young militants took part in the
discussion and a stand was taken,
if not with sufficient firmness, by
the representative of the Nord YCL
against the leaders of the Party or
ganization in this district, VINO de-
MED the existence of a real Right
danger, which had been evident par
ticularly in this district. But the
young Communists of the Nord
themselves recognized later, at the
session of the &C of the Youth in
February, that up until then they
had not struggled vigorously and
resolutely enough against the Right
errors of the district committee of
the Party, and that they had not ap-
piled a sufficiently independent line.
Furthermore, at the National Con-
gress of the Party, the youth dele
gates from the Nord subjected this
Party organization to a violent criti-
cism.
In a general manner it may be
said that the whole League partici-
pated in the Party discussion, and
not merely a few leaders. At the
information meetings of the Com
munist Youth which were held in
almost all districts during February
questions relating to the Party tao
tic were very widely discussed. At
many of these meetings and also in
many nuclei and district committees,
particularly at Paris, Marseilles,
ETC., the Communist youth resolutely
defended in its resolutions and state
ments, in the speeches of the dele
gate sto these meetings, and at dis
trict conferences of the Party, the
line laid down by the vi Congress
for the French Party and for the
international Communist movement.
At the February Plenum of the
French YCL which was attended by
all district secretaries, the agree
ment of the Communist youth with
the work of the &C of the Party
was emphasized. The February
Plenun declared that the Bureau Of

Following it's old tradition, the
Communist Youth of France has in
recent times actively participated in
the struggle against the Right de-
viations and against the conciliators
in the ranks of the Communist
Party of France, especially in con-
nection with the preparation for the
congress of she Party and the con-
gress of the YCL.
Everyone can remember the out
standing role played by the Com
munist Youth of France in the
struggle for the rect.fication of the
line of the Party in 1927 and 1928
particularly in the application of the
tactic "class against class" This is
now being expressed by direct par
ticipation in the rank and file meet
ings of the Party, its district and
sub-district meetings, and in the
Party Conferences preceding the
National Congress of the Party, as
well as in the participation of the
Youth in the work of the Polit
Bureau and of the &C of the Party
of which many militants from the
Youth are members.
But most of all this participation
in the preparation of the congress of
the Party is shown in the participa-
ton of broad elements of the Com
munist Youth in the preparation for
the Communist Youth Congress.
Throughout this preparation the dis
cussion was centred around all ques.
tions of the work and policy of the
Party, particularly the struggle
against the Right deviations and all
forms of hesitation and conciliatory
tendencies, whether in the ranks OF
the Party or in the YCL itself. This
activity, however, did not for an in.
slant detract the attention of the
Communist Youth from the practical
and specific problems of the Youth.
1t goes without saying that special
role in this work was played by the
Youth nuclei in the Party
The participation of the youth in
the preparation for the Party Con-
gress took practical form after the
Central Committee session of De-
cember 1928 at which it was decided
to launch a big discussion in the
pages of 'PAvant Garde" in prep
aration for the National Youth Con-
gress. At its December session the
&C of the Youth published a declara-
ton taking up in detail all questions
related to the policy and line of the
Party, setting forth clearly the reso-
lutte line eof the Communist Youth
with regard to the struggle against
opportunism and against the Right
errors in the ranks Of the CPF. This
declaration submitted the political
and economic situation of France to
q thorough analysis, and has played

| vigorous stand against conciliatory
and Right tendencies existing among
certain delegates.
We must also recall the outstand-
| ing role of the Communist youth in
the strikers of the past months, es-
pecially in the Nord textile strike
and the mine strikes of the Loire
and Gard, in which the Communist
youth submitted to severe self
criticism the work accomplished by
the strike leadership and certain
militants of the Unitary trade
unions of the Party who did not
always succeed in rising to the sit
uation during these strikes. The
Communists unmasked the Liquida-
toral tendencies, and upheld the
measures of the Party against the
traitors and provocators. But SINH
larly, the &C of the Youth recog-
nized that the Youth itself did not
always succeed in participating &C
lively enough in the strike move
ment and that at times certain mill
tants and certain nuclei allowed
themselves to be surprised by
events.
Now, after the National Congress
of the CP, is goings to support the
Party in the application of the reso-
lutions of the Congress and is at
the same time going to continue the
preparation for the National Con-
gress of the YCL, strengthening
more and more the struggle against
every deviation and opportunist
hesitation whether in the Party or
in the YCL.

TEXTILE TAKERS
HAVE BROUGHT
WAGES DOWN
All Results of Strikes
Are Lost
(Bu a Worker Correspondent

by a Worker Correspondent
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (By
MaiD AS a textile worker for over
40 years I have seen many strikes
and lockouts under the leadership
of the American Federation of Tex
tile Operatives, and I find that con-
ditions have gone from bad to worse.
This means that all these years of
suffering have been wasted because
the A. F. T. O. leadership never
made any effort to keep and main
tain the improved wages and condi-
tions that we got thru strikes.
For the last Is years the Textile
Council of the ALTO. (now the
United Textile Workers. fell further
and further into the attitude of lazi-
ness and indifference, which the
bosses noticed, and from then on
conditions fell rapidly.
AdulteratOn.
Twenty years ago conditions were
better because of two things in my
opinion. One is that the mill owners
did not possess the knowledge of
adulterating the cotton as they have
down on a scientific basis now. The
other is that workers had only one
class of work in the job, either all
fancy, all plain, all lenos, or all
broad cloth. These two things have
been important in lowering our con-
ditions. Coupled with bad leader
ship on the part of the misleaders,
these reasons made wages an hours
suffer.
The mixing of cotton is gotten
down to very fine point nowadays,
the point where the mixture just en-
ables the yarn to hold together thru
the different processes. Should the
bosses, in their greed for profits,
stretch another point, the job would
become impossible to run.
Double Work.
In the spinning room at Pemaquid
Mill they have given the workers
"a frames where they used to have
II frames and cut in wages of 81
week or more than $3.50 a year.
The mill owners and the A. F. T.
o. are working hand in hand in
lowering the workers standard of
living. AS an old English weaver,
[ am glad the National Textile
Workers Union has come in and is
determined to win for US a decent
wage and conditions.

Quoted by Chang Kai-shek with the
imperialist powers concerning the
past outrageous actions of the i'm
perialists in china, like the big
massacre in Tsingnaofu of Shantung
by the Japanese troops, the Marking
event which was a joint action of
several imperialist powers, and sew
eral others, are of such a humiliat-
ing nature that even the Chinese
bourgeoisie deem them as disgrace
full to the Chinese nation. Chang
Kai-shek, in order to make his gov
eminent secure, must regain the
bourgeoisie's confidence, since he is
mainly supported by them.
To regain their confidence he must
show some of his military prowess,
and make some compensation too.
But to make compensation at the
expense of some imperialist powers
is out of the question, as he is the
most subservient slave to the i'm
perialists. The only foreign country
he can lay his hands on is the Soviet
Union, which is hated by all i'm
perialists and boureoisie in the
world. Backed up by the British,
Japanese and American imperialists,
and supported by the native bour-
geoisie, he ordered the complete
seizure of the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way and the arrest of the Soviet
railway officials. This action has
two-fold purposes: to show the i'm
perialists that Chang Kai-shek is

The seizure of the Chinese East

Chang Kai-shik are of such a seri-
GUS character and complicated ma
ture that l think some explanation
is needed particularly by those Chi

capitalist newspapers. These papers
are publishing all kinds of rumours
against the Soviet Union. Those
papers, published by the corrupt
Chinese politicians in America which,
acting themselves as the watchdogs
of the Marking lackey government,
are most vicious in their efforts to
circulate unfavorable news concern

Obeys His Master

Why does the Marking govern
ment of Chang Kai-shik provoke the
Soviet Union? There are external
and internal reasons for it. Elk
ternally, Chang Kai-shik has sur
rendered entirely to the imperialists
He made considerable concession to
the British, Japanese, and especially
American imperialists so that they
can be won over to recognize his
government, to grant him big loans
in order to suppress the Chinese
workers and peasant revolution and
to fight against his opponents such
as the Kuangsi clique, general Feng
Yu-shiang, etc.
The imperialists in giving him a
little favor, expect big return.
They bind him up as their faithful
and loyal dog. Shiang Kai-shek has
to obey his masters order, every
word. The present provocation
against the Soviet Union is one of
the Masters orders.
