Negro Youth Must Be Modified for the
National Hunger March

of Negro workers and must be modified to
take part in the great demonstrations of solidarity
for the Hunger Fighters.
The Urban League receiving the support of the
white and Negro bourgeoisie, as well as definite
stratas Of the electromagnetic, is determined to
organize jim crow relief stations as well as lin
crow scab agencies known as Employment Of
fices), in order to divide the white from the Ne
gro unemployed. 1t is interesting to note that
the Urban League caters to the young Negro
intellectuals just out of the schools and COL
leges. The Harlem head 1uarters has some two
score youth organizations meeting there as well
as many children's organizations Our inactiv-
ity among the Negro youth, and especially the
unemployed, makes it increasingly possible for
them to be used as scabs In the growing strike
struggles. This has already happened in the Bos-
ton longshoremens strike. The Negro youth can
and must be modified to unite with the white
workers in Joint struggles for cash relief and
unemployment insurance. No discrimination in
hiring, no discrimination in giving out of re-
lief, must become some of the main slogans in all
our unemployed work.

ONE cannot exGggerate the terrible misery and
restitution Of the Negro youth in the U. S.
Government figures show that unemployment is
twice as great among Negro workers as among
white workers. When working, the Negro youth
receives much lower wages When thrown out of
work. he has no savings whatsoever to rely on,
and from the very beginning is forced to go to
the various soup line organizations. Because of
small income Nero toilers buy many of their
necessities only on the installment plan Upon
losing the job and the possibility of continuing to
pay for the stuff, everything is lost.
Discrimination, far from decreasing in the
present crisis, Is being utilized more and more
Those most mental, most difficult and least paid
jobs, which at one time we're thought to be too
low for white workers, are being taken away from
the Negro workers. and given to white workers,
at lower pay.
The condition of Negro children is likewise ap-
palliDg The Heckscher Foundation which Jim
crows Negro children, admits that 1t receives
practically as many appeals to take care of Ne
gro children for white, and refuses to take
care of them.
Being faced with these abominable conditions

part in the National Hunger March. The masses

OUR MAIN TASK IN ILLINOIS.

We must get down to brass tacks in Illinois
The miners are inside the UMWA The NMU
does not exist there. We must build the rank
and file opposition inside the UMWA under
the leadership of the T.U.UL and the NMU
This work must be co-ordinated from the center
Of the N,M,U. We must unfold a program of
struggle that will mobilize the masses of the
miners in struggle against the coal operators
and the UM.W.A. bureaucrats. The opposition
must take the initiative in the fight for unity
of all the miners both in Illinois and on a ma
tional scale. We must everywhere support the
N.M.U. in its struggles and convince the miners
of the correctness of the policies and real rank
and file proletarian leadership of the NMU
But the N.M.U. in Illinois will not be built
through individual membership recruiting or
through the splitting off and isolating a single
local. We must first develop the mass movement
and the fight for unity, then will come the
building of the NMU. through the establish
ment of the unity of the miners against the bu-
reaucratS. What form this will take, whether
through the mass of the miners affiliating to
the NMU., or through large groups of miners
affilating to the N.M.U, or through some other
forms, only the course of the struggle will de-
eide. But one thing is clear; our main task is
to develop the struggle of the miners on united
front basis, to mobilize the miners against the
bosses and the bureaucrats. To accomplish this
we do not place before the miners the choice
N.MU. or U.M.W.A. but the unity of the miners
against the bosses and bosses agents!

UNITY COMMITTEES AND OPPoSITIONS
INSIDE THE U.M.W.A

1t is true that there is quite some unclarity as
to the role of the Unity Committees and the
building of oppositions inside the UMWA.
Unquestionably Comrade fash is correct that
the Unity Committees in Illinois were wrongly
conceived as merely instruments through which
we raise questions of the miners strike in Penn
Ohio and not the lever for the development of
the struggle in Illinois the basis of local
program. Also there was insufficient clarity to
the fact that in Illinois where the NMU. does
not exist, the Unity Committees are in reality
themselves the opposition movement of the rank
and file inside the U.M.W.A But instead of
working in the direction of clarifying this ques-
ton along the lines of more firmly building the
opposition movement inside the UM.W.A, Com
rade fash wants to liquidate the Unity Commit
tees into the N.M.U, and says nothing about
work inside the U.M.W.A and the building of the
oppositional movement within it.

IN the october 20 issue Of the Daily worker
l There appeared an article by Comrade Joe
fash under the caption winning the Illinois
Miners for the Program of the N.M.U." In this
article Comrade fash attempts to explain" and
to answer some criticisms directed against the
line carried through by our comrades in the ILL
nois coal fields. But Comrade fash by his very
answers and explanations has more than con-
firmed the criticisms made at the meeting of the
National Committee in Pittsburgh recently to
which his article has reference.

Unity Committees and ignored the building Of
the N,M.U." Comrade fash evidently has the
opinion that the trouble in Illinois is that there
is too much united front. He does not see that
the united front policy is either completely alb
sent or being wrongly (narrowly) applied. Com
rade fash believes that the way TO build the
NMU. is to place the question as one of united
front or the building Of the N.M.U. Con1rade
fash does not understand that the united front
is the key to the building of the N.M.U. And it is
interesting to note that in this whole article
there is not one word on the necessity to work
inside the U.MW.A. and to build the opposition
movement within the U.M.W.A.
Conrade fash further states: I'VE approached
the miners in the unity committee With the prob
lem, made it clear that the NMU. had to be
built The result was when we asked the miners
to Join the union all of them in the Unity Com
mittee did SO, and when this was reported to
the T.U.UL, board meeting we were accused OF
changing the policy" Comrade fash evidently
thinks that we have achieved a great victory in
Illinois. Certainly it is very good that there are
miners who recognize that the NMU. is the only
union that stands for their interests. But how
many joined the N.MU.? The Unity Committees
are supposed to be committees of representatives
of the miners. How many miners did these com
mttees mobilize behind them? And how many Of
bers did these locals represent? And how many
miners are in these U.M.W.A. locals2 If Com
rsde fash would give all the facts the situation
would be much clearer. These members of the
Unity Committees were representative of num-
Der of locals having thousands of miners These
thousands of miners remained in the U.MWA.
And the miners who joined the NM.U. numbered
only few dozen. And even those, of course in
order to retain their jobs, have to be secret men,
bers of the N.M.U. and maintain their member
ship in the U.M.WA. What did Comrade fash
and the other comrades accomplish? They trans
formed the Unity Committees of few dozen
miners into N,M.U. groups. But they at the same
time time hquidated the Unity Committees that
stood for the united front of the miners and I'M
der whose banner the work of winning the rest
Of the miners was to be carried on. In other
words, Comrade fash succeeded only in carrying
through in practice the narrow sectarian policy
of hquidating the united front and telling the
miners to come and join better union. But so
far the miners not doing this and they will
not do it in that manner.

ON THE UNITY COMMITTEES.

On July l6 there was held conference of the
miners in Pittsburgh The backbone of this con-
ference was the Rank and File Strike Committees
OF the Pittsburgh, Ohio, and West Virginia min
ers then on strike. There we're also delegates
from Kentucky, and minority delegates from Il
lnos and the Anthracite. A National Unity
Committee of Action was formed Such COM
mittees we're subsequently set up in the Districts
illinois, Anthracite etc.. These committees pro-
yided an entering wedge into the U.M.W.A. locals
where the NMU. could not do 1t. Where this
was undertaken we met with some success. In
Illincs where the N,M.U. did not exist it is clear
that these committees consisted of members of
the U.M.W.A. only and some few who secretly
2rc also members of the NM.U. The Unity
Committees could have been utilized in Illinois
TO much greater extent TO come before the
ITi1cra and to present TN issues of the Penn
OHIO strike. the role of Lewis, and at the same
INC. of course, connecting these issues up with
the issues of the Illinois miners. The Unity Com
f1ittees there on the basis of local program
t"uld become force among the miners But

experience last season won
more games than he lost, is expected

has worked so hard at his Maryland

some eight pounds under what he
would like.
