all of the districts into our T.U.U.L groups
and revolutionary oppositions, not connected
with any other national unions or national
leagues, is $4,000, which brings the total of new
members as reported to the National Office of
the Trade Union Unity League to 5,725. These
the reports sent in the last few days. This is
not satisfactory situation and the Party must
redouble its efforts in order to increase the
tempo of organization for this drive.
Build Revolutionary Unions.
-. The entire Party membership must be
made acquainted with the necessity for the
building Of the revolutionary trade unions We
must discuss the status of the trade union work
IN the T.U.U.L. recruiting drive. This discus
sl)n must be organized by all of the district
bureaus, by all of the action committees of the
Party and must be carried into the Party units
in each case on the basis of concrete plans to
be followed. Our Party trade union fractions
must be held responsible for the carrying out
of the program of the T.U.U.L., such as the
calling of mass meetings, and the distribution
of leaflets and literature all to be based upon
the program of action in accordance with the
specific tasks of the unions in the industries.
U.L, and the Party must assist in the deve-
opment of these new cadres. The best forces
of the Party must be modified for the build
ing up of the T.U.U.L. drive In order to give
political and organizational leadership. Our
district trade union departments nSlst assume
the responsibility for the actual carrying out
of this program. The district trade union de-
partments, as well as our Party fractions in
the national centePs of the unions, must see
to it that the recruiting drive is linked up with
the daily struggles of the workers in the shops.
All of the shop nuclei and street nuclei of
our Party must be ORIGINATED towards shop
work in order to concentrate on the building up
CT shop committees inside of the factories. Our
revolutionary opposition within the reformist
unions must play more of an independent lead
ership in accordance with the program of the
T.U.UL.
The Party districts should concentrate in the
building up of this drive in accordance with
the basic industries within the districts. Special
atIe ltion mus. he given by the Party and T T.
I'LL. center to Ire building up of the metal and
mining conventions.
The postponement Of the Fifth World Cen
gresc must be utilized for an intense campaign.
First, to Immediately start in a discussion on
the program of he Pr3fintern and Agenda If
the Fifth Wcrld Congress. This is of furda-
mental Importance and The entire Party mem
bcrship must be made t?rscious of its resp9n-
sbity.
We must call to the attention of our Party
district and our Party Trade Union Fractions
the serious underestimation and the complete
failure in building UP the official organ of
the Trade Union Unity League. The Labor
Unity must be really made into a mass organ
for the revolutionary trade union in this coun
try. The Labor Unity must be made part and
parcel of the entire campaign. Every Party
district must see to it that qualified conrad,
is put in charge of the Labor Unity to buila
up network of agents in all organizations
and new unions. Fifty thousand new subscrip
tons for the Labor Unity must be placed into
the center of all of our activities
We must sharply call to &he attention of our
trade unions the Importance of building up the
mass unemployed councils around our unions
in order to build up the T.U.U.L. unempIoy-
ment convention in the City of Chicago, on July
and 5. This is in accordance with the pro-
gram sent out to the Party district and af-
filiated unions. All the above mentioned points,
as well as the outline sent out by the Party
time and again must be closely checked up by
the Party trade union committee
