The Seventh Convention

These developments lay the basis for eff
fective mass work. Because of them the Party
has already made real progress in strengthen
ing itself among the masses. 1t has almost
doubled its membership-especially important
being its large increase of Negro members.
The March 9th demonstration gave it enor-
nous prestige among the workers and infused
members with great confidence in their
ability to lead masses in struggle. The Party
has not only been prepared to fight by its
inner consolidation, but it is actually partici-
pating in the mass struggles on an unprece-
dented scale.
However, the picture is not entirely rosy.
We still confront glazing weaknesses in our
forces Among these are the insufficient roots
of our Party directly in the factories through
shop nuclei. The weakness of the YCL and
the crisis of growth in the Trade Union Unity
League. There is also a serious shortage of
trained leading forces. But these difficulties
can and will be overcome in the militant adj
vance of our Party.
The coming convention will give the Party
tremendous thrust forward into the mass
work. 1t will be a totally different conven-
ton than the previous one. At the Sixth Con-
vention our Party was still in the grip of
Lovestone. The factional struggle was at it's
zenith. The Party was threatened with split.
No mass work was either done or planned
there was not even report to the convention
on the trade union question. But the coming
convention, representing a united, healthy and
growing Communist Party, will have as it's
very center the development of the mass work,
which is the broad way to building our Party
and winning it mass leadership.
Clear, Correct Policy.
The Party policy is clear and correct the
Party organization is in thriving condition.
1t now remains to educate the Party member
ship fully to this line, to concretize the line
still more definitely in action, and to unite
completely the whole Party for the work
among the masses. These will be the central
tasks of the coming convention.
1t must be the aim of the convention to
mobilize the entire Party to further the big
mass campaigns now beginning to develop. In
first line there is the building of the Trade
Union Unity League This requires all power
behind the realization Of the TUUL drive for
$4,000 new members. This means in turn that
the whole Party organization must be rallied
to build the coming TUUL national mass con-
ventions in the next four months-miners,
Marines steel, auto, lumber, shoe, food, nee
die, southern conference-and to carry on the
organizing campaigns preceding and follow
ing these conventions 1t means also full sup
port for the mass campaign to select the r.
l. l.. U. 9Th Congress delegates, the setting
up of local TUUL committees, ETC.
Forward to May | and July Convention.
Then there is the big movement of the un-
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-04-18
MARCH SIXTH: ITS MEANING
AND SIGNIFICANCE

for example in Belgium, to mention this coun-
try alone. Finally, in some countries where
the movement was not going, 1t was not raised
to the plane that could have been expected
with the objective conditions. This was seen
for example in England where there were sew
eral demonstrations and meetings, etc. But
if we remember that there are more than two
million unemployed in Great Britain today, the
Labor Party having long since derided the I'M
employment, then it must be admitted that
the demonstration Of few thousand workers
throughout England on that day was certainly
a small movement for such country.
We must make careful study of the posi-
tive and negative aspects of March Sixth, not
merely with view to making an investiga-
ton, but with the object of laying bare the
mistakes with the firm intention of avoiding
their repetition in future.
The movement on March Sixth was one of
those international demonstrations which must
serve as a starting point to prepare a far
more serious mass movement on May Day.
We must, therefore, carefully examine what
was done by our organizations in each coun-
try on this day, and what could and should
have been done. This is essential, for if we
make good use of the experience gained on
March Sixth we shall be able to organize
real international political strike on
May First and thus take another step forward
on the road to consolidating the Revolutionary
Wing of the working class movement and CO.
ordinate the movements of the workers on an
international scale.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-04-18

employed, an organic part of the TUUL This
emovement, with it's campaign of organizing
unemployed councils, wide mobilization for
May First, great mass convention and demon
stration in Chicago, July As, and big program
of action for the Fall elections, offers splen-
did medium for the Party to establish mass
contacts.
Finally, there are, the big drive to develop
the Daily Worker into powerful mass organ,
the building Of the national convention of the
American Negro Labor Congress, the broad
campaign of the Friends of the Soviet Union,
the defense activities of the International La
Dor Defense and last, but by no means the
least of the major campaigns, the systematic
Party membership recruitment.
This is a maze of mass activities, all going
mlitantly forward at the present time. But
they not too big job for our Party. With
its correct line, its new unity, it's added
strength and growing enthusiasm, it can ac
complish them all and more, and thus lay the
basis for the still greater tasks that already
loom up in the very near future. The coming
convention will give an enormous stimulus to
all this mass work.
Historic Convention
Our Party comes forward rapidly as the
mass leader of the American working class.
More and more effectively it challenges the
misleadership of the fascist A. r. of L.; more
and more it outstrips the social fascist S. p;
wider and wider it develops the circle of work.
err support behind it's elementary slogans for
the organization of the unorganized, for social
insurance the seven-hour day and five-day
week, against imperialist war and for defense
of the Soviet Union, etc. The convention just
ahead of US will be historic in the life of our
Party It will be the summoning of all the
healthy tendencies now enlivenng the Party,
the crystalization of our maximum forces for
our vast mass work. It's record of solid
achievement and healthy growth will be an
other crushing blow to the defeated renegade
Cannon and Lovestone groups. The Seventh
Convention will mark tremendous step for
ward to the building of our organization into
a mass Communist Party, worthy American
section of the Communist International.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-04-18
By VIM. z. FOSTER.

THE keynote of the coming Party convention
will be the thorough-gong mobilization of
our Party for intensive mass work on all
fronts. The favorable objective situation
greatly facilitates and imperatively demands
such work, and all the inner Party develop
ments make for that direction.
On all sides the workers display increasing
readiness to struggle. The economic crisis
deepens, bringing with it still greater mass
unemployment and worsening of the workers
conditions in every respect. That the work
will fight, that they increasingly tend to
take the offensive against the capitalists, is
demonstrated afresh by, the great demonstra-
tions on March 9Th. This historic day was an
evidence of the growing rehabilitation not only
of the unemployed, but of the whole working
class. Great class struggles stand immediate
ly ahead of US.
Aggressive Mass Work.
The present situation of sharpening and
broadening class struggle throws great tasks
of organization and leadership upon US. These
can be fulfilled only by our Party coming for
ward as never before the mass leader of
the workers. Intensive and aggressive mass
work now becomes the Party's most vital and
urgent necessity. Mass work, now more fruit
full of results than ever, is the key to develop
ment of our Party into mass organization.
Failure to do real mass work in this period
of growing struggle would lead US to the most
serious isolation
All factors now combine to project the Par
ty more aggressvely and efficiently into this
mass work. These factors will climax at the
coming convention and give that gathering
the characteristic stamp of an intensive Party
mobilization for its great mass tasks. The
Party during the past year has, with the help
of the Communist International, made tremen-
dous progress in preparing itself for the mass
work and in actually going into such work
The political line of the Party has been
corrected, the Party is unified, and the lead
ership strengthened. A death-blow has been
struck at the opportunist exceptionalist
theories of Lovestone and Pepper; the Party
now clearly sees the situation and the tasks
before it. The paralyzing grip of these Right
elements has been broken and their attempt
to split the Party defeated. For the first time
in the life of the Party a consistent fight is
being conducted against the right and concil-
iatory elements, as well as against such leftist
trends as show themselves. The old group
walls have been broken down. the deadly fac
tional fight is ended; the Party now knows
greater unity than ever before in its history.
The new leadership consoidates itself and
wins the support of the membership. For the
first time real start has been made in the
practice of Communist self-criticsm. The
Party has travelled far towards becoming
real Bolshevist organization.

WORKERS will not be confused by the storm
" of discussion centering about the Senate
Judiciary Committee at Washington over the
demand by President Hoover that the notorious
Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina be-
come Justice of the United States Supreme
Court.
Judge Parker's selection, as all previous ap
pointments to the United States Supreme Court,
is class appointment to an important instru-
ment of the capitalist class government.
Allies of Capitalism
The interests of this capitalist government
are we'll served by the so-called protests" of
the fascist heads of the reactionary labor Of
fcialdom, President William Green Of the
American Federation of Labor, and President
John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers of
America with the social fascist, Norman
Thomas of the Socialist Party and the acting
head of the National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People, Walter White
Their protests only help to veneer the capital
list class justice that increases its persecution
of the toiling masses in the present period of
growing economic depression with 100000
of jobless demanding work or Wages!' They
proclaim the integrity of the courts, of capital
ism itself, while attacking the individual.
Norman Thomas, who has posed as the teach
err of Tammany Hall rule in New York City
in its bloody attacks on Communist demonstra-
tions now wants to instruct President Hoover
on the best method for creating "good"
supreme court under capitalism. Thomas claims
to have the recipe for purifying and sanctify-
ing capitalism.
Seek to Weaken Real Protest.
This is, of course, the best possible service
that can be rendered to the capitalist enemies
of the working class. 1t can serve but one
purpose constituting an attempt to weaken the
mass protest of the whole working class
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-04-18

and Negro petty bourgeois elements participant
ing in politics, since their politics is the same
as that of the white capitalist and middle
class elements. It is the millions of oppressed
Negro workers and farmers who are feared in
the South and it is their disfranchisement that
is continued as basis for the perpetuation
of white capitalist supremacy. The class basis
for Judge Parker's opposition to Negro en-
reimbursement is seen by the fact that anti
working class elements among the Negroes,
like J. E. Shepard, president of the North
Carolina College for Negroes, has been mobil-
lied with other anti-labor elements among the
Negroes for support Of Judge Parker's appoint
ment
The Case Against Capitalism.
The decisions of the capitalist judicial system
in the present period are characterized by the
conviction of the Unemployed Delegation in
New York City (Foster, Minor, Amter, Lesten,
and Raymond), railroaded to prison for voicing
the demands of the jobless; the increasing
numbers of heavy prison terms meted out un-
der the sedtion laws California, Ohio, Penn
sylvania), wholesale deportations and mass ar
rests of workers whose only crime is that they
are homeless and penniess
The socialists and the trade union fascist
leadership appear jointly with the capitalist
state as the prosecutors of the worker, William
Shifrin, in New York City.
The case against Judge Parker is case
against the capitalist judiciary, against the
capitalist system. Workers cannot escape the
Increasing prosecutions of capitalist class JUS
tice without ending the social system that
spawns it.
