Communist, Be Freed
at |. L. d. Conference

Bitterly condemning the white
terror in Rumania, representatives
of the 45 branches of the New York
district of the International Labor
Defense, at special conference call
ed by the local office, passed a reso-
luton demanding the immediate re-
lease Of Alexander Dobrogeanu
Gherea, leader of the Rumanian
Communist Party, and other work
ers now in Rumanian jails. Gherea
has been on protest hunger strike
since Jan. &c and he is. reported dy
ing.
The resolution, passed in the
name of the 10000 members and af-
filiated organizations of the New
York I. l.. D., pledges the unremit-
ting support of the |. l.. D. in the
fight to free Gherea and all other
classwar prisoners. The l. L. D.
urges all working class organiza-
lions to pass similar resolutions and
send them to the Rumanian ambas-
sador in Washington and to the Ru-
manian consul in New York.

"The hypocrisy of the social demo-
cratic swindle about the role of the
League of Nations as factor max
ing for peace, is also once again ex-
posed. The social democrats contend
that the obligatory registration Of
all agreements has killed the sys-
tenn of secret military agreements.
The present revelations show how
much value is to be attached to So
cial democratic arguments. Mueller
and Vandervelde, two of the most
prominent social democrats, will GER
tainly be unable to come to any
amicable agreement concerning the
contents of the Franco Belgian mill
tary agreement.
"The treacherous social democracy
forms an organic part Of the sys-
tenn Of secret military combinations
which gives the present international
situation its most characteristic
tone.

*NOTE: At the time that Bennett
was concluding his investigation OF
the employers organizations tcirca
1920, the membership of the unions
of the American Federation of Labor
together with that of the independ-
emit unions) did indeed come up to
100000. However the condition OF
the American proletariat has become
much worse since, and the number
of organized workers has diminished
markedly
What, then, should be the attitude
of the workers toward the bosses
associations Their attitude must
be in accordance with that policy,
which in the well-known words of
Marx, has always been the real
trend of history#-the class-strug-
gle.
The association of employers, in
the broad sense of the word, in
clude, besides all the manufacturers
associations, various other organiza-
lions of business men, of which the
"Chambers Of Commerce" are not
the least important. The word "As-
ISOLATION" serves as generic name
in contradiction to the word union"
