Demonstrate May |

BENLD, H., (By Mail).-Several
delegates have been elected to at
tend the Cleveland Trade Union
Unity Conference called by the
Trade Union Educational League for
June l at Cleveland.
The election of delegates follows
the successful May Day demonstra-
tion, held by the local Communist
Party, which drew hundreds of sup
porters in spite of the drizzling rain
Speakers were Bill Matheson and
Hugo Oehler.
The struggle of the German work
ers during and following the May
Day demonstrations was hailed by
Matheson as the rehearsal to the
final conquest of power by the Ger
man working class.
Tribute was paid to the workers
who led the Save-the-Uni picket
ing here last April and who thu,
laid the basis for the launching OF
the militant National Miners Union
"that Isl now striking terror into
the hearts of the enemy"
Demands were made for similar
meetings in Wilsonville, Stauntor
and Gillespie.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May o.
The intense speed-up and rationale

reducing the wages of the already
underpaid workers to a mere pit
tance, barely sufficient to keep

since 1920 in the greatest increase
in profits for the manufacturers in

Thru this vicious speed-up, the

Weiss is a victim of the drive that
has been started in this state against

curing the last election campaign

we're broken up and general terror

In a letter to a friend in California,
Weiss writes:
inspector Scotia big guy from
FL Paso, and polite, my lad-paid
me the honor of a three hours visit
in my shack in the desert, taking
my record for official filing and
consideration. Of course, I told him
the truth, that I was born in Can
ada of American parents-my
mother, though Canadian, becomes
American by marriage, according to
United States law-and that
claimed American citizenship. How
ever, the inspector got the fact of
my being a Canadian ex-service man
and claims that having taken the
oath OF allegiance to dear old
George of English notoriety, my
claim as q citizen, which otherwise
might hang good, is null and void
Weiss health is reported to be
very bad and deportation to Can
ada might prove disastrous. The
international Labor Defense has
taken up his case, as well as that
of the other workers threatened
with deportation, and will wage a
vigorous fight to prevent them from
being victimized for loyalty to their
class.
Weiss, in addition to his other
militant activities, is also well
known as a working class writer
and has contributed poetry to the
Daily Worker.

Inc District Committee, following
the instructions of the C. E. C. made
several efforts to convince these
comrades to cease splitting the
Party, to give up the dual organi-
cation and to become part of the
recognized leadership. This was all
without any result. Instead of COM
ing closer to the Party, these COM
rades went ahead calling dual meet
ings, arranging a fake united front
May Day celebration, in San Fran
cisco, in order to weaken the Com
munist May Day meeting. They re-
jected every effort of the DEC for
unity, carried on for three weeks.
When all these efforts failed, the
Party had to take disciplinary
measures against the splitters of the
Communist movement. The DEC ex-
PEELED Gliksohn and Manus, sus-
pended Mabille, Dart and Studevant
and the action of the DEC was sus-
tanned by the Central Committee.
The 1912 Market Street place to-
day is the center of dual, splitting
anti-Party activities. Any meeting,
affair, ETC., called there under the
name of the Party or its sympathetic
organizations is dual move, which
leads to the weakening of the Com
munist Party and therefore to the
strengthening of the bourgeoisie.
Every sincere Party member, no
matter how deeply he might be in
volved in the fractional situation,
must recognize this fact and must
break any and all connections with
1912 Market Street and the expelled
and suspended members.
The District Committee is fully
aware of the fact that both former
groups contain valuable Communist
elements. The DEC is anxious to
draw in every comrade into Party
work. The Party Building Drive can
only be made success if every COM
rade is doing his best under one
leadership,-and the District Com
mittee, which under the greatest
difficulties arranged for the first
time in District 10 eight May Day
meetings advertised by $4,000 leaf
lets, which organized three units in
cities where our Party had no foot
hold in the past (including two i'm
portant shop nuclei, the District
Committee pledges itself to draw in
every comrade to work, to eliminate
the alright factional rule of the past
and to mobilize all the comrades for
the unification and the building of
our Party in District 10,
Comrades! The District Commit
tee calls upon you to Immediately
sever all connections with the dual
organization, to attend your nucleus
meetings, to pay up dues, and work
will be given to you without any dis
elimination whatsoever. You have
to fill out the industrial registration
card because the records of the dis
trict are kept and misused by for
mer members.
When you filled out the apphca-
ton into our Party, you pledged
yourself "to submit to the discipline
of the Party and to engage actively
in it's work" The District Commit
tee hopes that this pledge will not
be violated by any member and that
all the Communist forces of District
i3 will work tremendously for the
building of unified powerful move
ment in California, under the leader
ship of the Communist International,
the Central Committee and the Dis
trict Committee.
