Lenin On Religion.
Comrade Kaye suggests the re-
printing of Lenin's article: "The Re-
lation of the Workers Party to Re-
ligion." The inference would seem
to be that Lenin in this article sup
ports the viewpoint of Kaye. This
is preposterous. The article starts
out by stating:
Religion is the opium of the
people--this MARKHAM axiom is the
cornerstone of the whole philo-
sophy of Marxism in questions of
religion. Marxism looks upon all
present-day religions and churches,
on each and every religious Organi-
cation, always as organs of bOur-
geOis reaction which serve for the
protection of exploitation and
stupefaction of the working class"
Thereupon Lenin picks to piece:
those god-killers who claim to bt
"more Left" or "more revolutionary
than the Communists, and who would
make atheism the cardinal tenet o.
Party membership. Next the evo
luton of the axiom religion is ;
private matter" with regard to thu
state, but not to the Party.) Mex
he shows that anti-religious propa
ganda must not be abstract, that i
must not be permitted to become tn
splitting point for the working elias
in it's struggles against the bosses
otherwise the preacher of atheism
would become an accomplice OF tn
employers. All this is undoubtedl
true, but does not bear any resemb
lance whatever to the viewpoint o
Comrade Kaye? Not in the least.
Comrade Kaye setS up a1 interest
ing theses: "The Negro is deeply re
ligious," and he states that tn
Negro is obsessed with "the Chris

BlckneW Miners Demand
Unity IN Workers Party

The Central Executive Committee
has received a demand upon the
Party members to rally for Party
work, to unite behind the Central
Committee and to drop all factional-
ism.
Bicknell is a center of growing
Party activity in the bituminous
coal fields of Indiana. The resolu-
ton reads in part:
owe, the Bicknell Party group,
for the sake of unity in our Party,
take our stand in support of the
c. E. c. This has made several
of our best friends angry, but we
must not allow ourselves to be
tied down to personal friendships.

ership is for the most part reaction
airy, it's whole social status drives
it increasingly to seek reconciliation
with the white masters, Will. at the
same time the masses of Negro
workers are driven into more and
more open struggle. Here the stu
alton resembles somewhat the class
relations in colonial country ruled
by foreign imperialists (India). AS

editor, Daily Worker,
On December 10, 1928 I addressed
letter to ex-comrade Refugee, a
rrotskyist, on an incident that oc-
urred before the Workers Center,
where fight developed as a result
f the insistence of the Cannon fol-
overs in distributing their "Mili-
ant" In that letter expressed my
opinion, deploring profoundly the
lction of my Party comrades and
expressing personal solidarity for
,x-comrade Refugee who l under
TODD had been hurt as a result of
he fight.
Upon further consideration of the
ntire matter, the investigation OF
he incident itself as well as to my
,wn point of view expressed in the
etter, have come to the conclu-
ion that / was wrong from many
ltandpoints, that this letter was in
urious to the interests of the Party
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-02-18

Industrial defense and relief activi-
ties simultaneously broaden and en-
liven our work. In the sub-districts
in st. Louis, Gary, Milwaukee and
Jacksonville the first steps are also
being taken. In this work we shall
make errors, we have made them,
but we are striving to learn from
them and correct them. Our mis-
takes on this field, as on most others,
will generally be found towards the
Right rather than towards the Left.
And Comrade Hayes letter has
helped to prove this.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-02-18

These differences will be adjusted,
we feel sure, in time. Let US
strive for that great unity that
will back the militant, fighting in
dustrial unions"
This is one of the most encourag-
ing signs throughout the Party.
There are increasing manifestations
of the fact that old group ties, old
personal connections and friendships
are giving way before an adequate
consideration of the political issues
involved. Similar developments as
in Bicknell showing consequent sup
port for the Central Committee
amongst the coal miners, are occur
ring throughout the Party.

struggle of views for and against
the proletariat-the Party's view
and that of the CT expresses the
interests of the revolutionary devel-
opment of the proletariat while that
of the Trotskyites expresses the
point of view of the petty bour-
geoisie.

point which l stated in the letter,
and I realize again that such use
would inevitably have been made by
these enemies of the movement be-
cause our struggle is not really a
fractional struggle within the limits
of our Party, fighting to build up
our Party, but that the fight with
the Trotskyites is a class war, is a

rayed against US all the agents of
the ruling class, including the Negro
bourgeoisie and most of the out
standing petty-bourgeois elements.
In the Chicago district we have
made some new beginnings with
Negro work. Mass meetings, social
gatherings, and finally a reorgani-
cation of our auxiliary represent the
first steps. Seizure upon local issues
and incidents provides good vehicles.

ably have to mobilize them against
the church. But this is not the main
sector of the battle-line, we have big
racial and class issues to fight out
with the white ruling capitalists, and
if an occasional Negro Church"
should come along a piece of the
way under mass pressure on some
burning racial issue this only adds
grist to our mill, provided that all
the while we maintain our Com
munist position and do not accept or
surrender to this religious "solace."
One "slip" that Comrade Kaye
makes in his article shows a basically
wrong approach to the whole ques-
tion-his reference to the Savage
survivals" of the Negro. Such an
expression is not that of a Com
munist toward our Negro fellow
workers but rather that of the white
superior" who still retains deep
under his white skin a chauvinist
attitude toward his colored fellow
worker. There are no more savage
survivals" in a Negro steel worker
than in white. This is only care
fully inculcated bourgeois myth of
the greater Civilization" of the
white, as justification for the OPP
preston of the more Savage"
Negro. 1t is impermissable for
Communists to speak thus.
Need Discussion.
1t is a good thing that Comrade
Kaye opened up this question fol
discussion. The methods and limits
of our approach to Negro masses
even through the Negro churche:
should be discussed in detail, especi'
ally by the leaders of our Negro
work. Our fight against the church
is an integral part of our fight tx

ses. Their present middle-class lead
