The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-06-06

The main task of the union today is to
crystalline our theological control over the
workers organizationally. Many important steps
in this direction have already been taken by
the union, with good results. The workers
who in the past have regarded even the In
dustrial Union as something apart from them
selves. are beginning to recognize that they
alone through their own activities will make
the Industrial Union the fighting weapon of the
needle trades workers.
The organization of block and building COM
mittees will be the instrument for the develop
ment of the mass struggle. 1t is true that to-
day only small percentage of the workers
are as yet taking an active part in these ac-
Invites; but start has already been made and
with the proper following up of this work there
is no doubt that before long the workers will
recognize this fundamental change that has
been made, and will come to look upon the
Industrial Union as the organization that will
lead theni not only in their daily struggles
but in the general struggles of the working
class.
The drive for 10000 new members launched
by the Industrial Union though as yet not de-
veloped with the necessary impetus, is never
theless an encouraging beginning of the cam
paign to strengthen and spread out the Indus
trial Union. The purpose of this drive is not
merely to get individual members into the

THE INTERNATIONAL COM
MUNIST PRESS AND MARCH 6

bore no imprint of campaign. 1t was only in
the last two weeks that real concentration
on the unemployed movement or the prepara-
ton for March 9th was to be noted.
The conducting of the campaign must be
estimated from the following aspects: ~ the
linking up of current campaigns March 9Th,
the anti-Soviet crusade, International Women's
Day.; (2) the line of campaign, the putting
forward of basic viewpoints, the united front of
employed and unemployed workers; (3) the
movement in the factories; az the internation-
al character of the campaign; (5) methods of
mass mobilization with the aid of the press; (6)
the elucidation of main problems (world econ
omic crisis, legality and illegality, social-fas-
cism); information on the U.S.S.R.
1t is from those aspects that we shall ex-
anime the most important Party papers.
On the eve of the March 9th campaign the
Berlin Rote Fahne, in accord with the situation
in Germany, gave prominent place to prob
lens of unemployment and during the final
weeks intensified the campaign. For example,
the Rote Fahne devoted big top-of-the- page ar
ticles to mass unemployment and the struggle
on February 25th, February 26th, February
28th, March End, March 4th and March 9Th.
The most important central problems were
dealt with in leading articles--it is true only
partially Ia leader on March End on the ques-
ton of the joint struggle of employed and I'M
employed workers, on March 9Th concerning
the fight for the streets, etc.. The strength
of these articles lay in their live agitational
treatment and correct emphasis of the signif-
canoe of the struggle for the streets and also
of the united front of employed and unemploy-
ed workers.
The campaign in the Rote Fahne, however,
when examined from the aspects outlined above,
discloses quite number of defects and weak
points, which can in no way be justified by
referring to the pressure from many other
campaigns, lack of space or other technical
factors.
The first substantial defect in the campaign
that on the eve of March 9Th the idea of
the broad united front from below was not suf-
ficiently used for propaganda by the press.
This defect was noted by the recent Plenum
of the &C, C.P.G., as applying to many Party
organizations whole. 1t is true, the neces-
sty for united front of employed and I'M
employed workers was constantly emphasized,
but very little was said on the eve of March
9Th of the necessity also to bring the social
democratic workers into this united front. Di-

1930).
IN examining the campaign for the Inter
rational Day of Fight Against Unemploy-
ment March 6th), conducted by the Commu-
mist Farty, we must start by examining the
condition of the Party press before the E.C.CI.
and RIL.U. had arrived at the decision con-
corning March 9th. The following fact must
be recognized: Although the unemployment
problem has for long time been very acute,
the army of voorhees, having grown to enor-
nous dimensions, no systematic, prolonged and
gradually intensified campaign was conducted
in the majority of Party papers. 1t is true that
as far as quantity is concerned Communist
newspapers, particularly in Germany and
America, devoted much space to the unempoy-
ment question, but the main problems were
treated in a very unsystematc manner. The
idea of the joint struggle of the unemployed
and the employed workers was not sufficiently
sharply brought out, and was not applied along
with all the principal conclusions to be deducted
therefrom, to all important topical questions
The Berlin Rote Fahne, as also the German
provincial press, in an agitational respect
treated brilliantly the most urgent current
topics, particularly the police terror against
unemployed demonstrations. PHumanite ig-
nored the unemployment question. The Lon
don Daily Worker dealt with the unemployed
movement quite unsystematically and did not
treat it as the key problem in the present day
economic and political struggles.
The March 9th campaign undoubtedly did
cause stir in all the papers. In dealing with
the unemployed problem the field of vision
widened, the international significance of I'M
employment began to be brought out, the or
ganizational aspect of the March 9Th campaign
was given an agitational basis, the narrow
parochial viewpoint which has often prevailed
when examining problems of unemployment
now gave place to broader outlook.
In this article it is our object briefly tc
describe the campaign conducted by the Party
press of Germany, France, Great Britain anf
America. On our analysis we will distinguish
between three phases of the campaign: ~ The
campaign preceding March 9Th, (2) the direc;
preparation March 9th to 6th) and (3) the
utilization of the March 9th experience
During the first weeks of the campaign, no
substantial change took place in the position of
the pres. Except for the publication of the
Communist international manifesto and the
treatment of everyday questions, the press still

union, but to establish contact with the work.
of the open shops, these contacts for
the purpose of organizing shop committees to
develop the struggle under the leadership of
the Industrial Union.
The attitude of the Lovestone group toward
this drive, their attempt to ridicule it by COM
pairing it with the 1926 drive of the Sigman ma
chine, shows that already they are reaching a
stage where they make no distinctions between
the Industrial Union and the company union
and see no difference between Sigman's drive
to fool the workers into the company union
and the drive of the Industrial Union to widen
its base and draw in the unorganized into its
fighting ranks.
The Trade Union Unity League as the revo-
lutionary center of the U.S.A., has asserted
itself and performed its revolutionary duty
toward the needle trades workers by calling
the attention of the union to some Of it's short
comings and by assisting with it's guidance in
leatina the union on the proper revolutionary
path.
Tbs second convention of the Industrial
unior viii mark turning point in the strug-
81 of the needle trades workers. At this con-
vention we will throw off the old outlived pol
icies that have interfered with the growth and
development of our union, and will go forth
with greater determination to build real revo-
lutionary union of needle trades workers.

world, the disqualification of the policy with re-
gard to strike strategy, was regarded by us as
something foreign to our movement. These
policies, we thought, may be applicable to Eu-
ropean countries, but as far as we were con-
cerned, we continued along the old lines and
our strategy in the recent strike struggles,
particularly in the dress strike, did not differ
very much from the strike strategy of the old
unions, with the exception that the leadership
Of our union had earnestly and sincerely hoped
to bring about real Improvements in the cond-
lens Of the workers through these strikes.
In the first place we hesitated to organize
cur new union, fearing that the workers, whonl
we considered to be in an exceptional position
in the U.S.A, would not follow us. This hes
fancy dissipated the enthusiasm of the masses
and created feeling of pessimism, which we
now struggle hard to overcome. After our
union was organized, our tactics were based too
much on the activities of the enemy instead of
giving independent leadership to the workers in
their struggle against the speed-up, long hours
and sweat-shop conditions.
Despite these shortcomings in the course of
our struggle, several very important achieve
nlents have been made. One of these was the
mass defiance of injunctons, which had far
reaching effect. The second was our ability,
despite our shortcomings, to withstand the con-

centrated attack of the combined forces of the
enemy and to retain our theological control over
the workers. 1t was these achievements that
created q base for the revival of our struggle
in the needle trades now, when in self-criticism
we reviewing our shortcomings of the past
and are laying down the correct policy for the
development of our struggle
The prospective for the struggle in the needle
trades is good. The conditions of the workers
are becoming more deplorable from day to day.
The earnings Of the workers in some sections
of the industry have been reduced as much as
so to 60 per cent. The 40-hour week has been
abolished Reorganizations are the order of the
day. The full burden of the economic crisis in
the industry has been placed on the shoulders
Of the workers. This is being done with the
direct aid and support Of the company unions
The Illusions that many of the workers en-
tertained with regard to the company union
have been destroyed as result of their exper-
fences in the fake strikes. The company unions
now stand exposed as the open fascist agents
of the bosses. The company unions are main
tanned solely by the support of the bosses. The
workers in ever larger numbers are beginning
to recognize that only thru militant struggle
under the leadership of the Needle Trades
Workers Industrial Union will they be in a
position to fight their most powerful enemies
and win union conditions.
