Party talking in terms of millions?
We know that in order to build the
Party, we must reach the masses Of
workers. We know that worker will
join the party if he once becomes
conscious of the fact that he is a
worker who is being exploited under
capitalism. We know that he will
join the party if he once knows the
aims and the historic mission Of the
Party. just picture to yourselves, a
quarter of a million of New York
workers reading our election platform
in four months. Do you think it will
help build our Party? Do you think
it will help reach the masses OF
workers? There is no question of
that. If this is so only in one
pamphlet, what do you think would
happen to our Party if all our
literature was distributed in the
terms of M IL LIONS?

on every such point there is a

at least, many of the budget items

On every local issue the Party mo-
bilizes the workers and their mass
pressure cannot always be success
fully withstood by the bourgeois or
socialist councillors. Fighting cap
italism may sometimes appear to
the workers as an abstraction, but
fighting for the right to build de-
cent homes for the workers, or for
the right to appropriate some
money to aid strikers, or for the
right to build a new bathhouse, or
for the opening of the local sub
way sation-these are very con-
crete and very burning questions,
and the local Communist Party has
ever so many opportunities to mo-
billie the workers on local issues
and thus to educate them up to the
true meaning of class rule and class
struggle. 1t is significant, indeed,
that in the last municipal cleo
tions, the Communists of Ivry poll
ed 10000 of the total of $4,000 votes.
The Party membership of Ivry is
only 300.

WHO ARE

The "Gentlemen's Club" of

the herald of the "Gentlemen's

Monthly Literary Service
Aids Revolutionary Press

WITH the Monthly Literary Ser
w vice of the Revolutionary
Writers Federation the proletarian
literary movement of this country
strikes out into new territory. 1t
is not a magazine, but what its
name implies: a monthly service of
stories, sketches, poems, critical ar
tlcles, ETC., for the revolutionary
press. And its most significant feat
ure is that for the first time it
breaks down the language barrier
which isolates SO much of the reyo-
lutionary writing done in this coun-
try, and offers translation of the
work OF writers In many languages.
The Revolutionary Writers
Federation, SO w. 18th St., New
York City, is section Of the
Workers Cultural Federation; it
was organized at two conferences
held last January and April,
bringing together not merely
writer's in various languages, but
uniting for the first time writer's
and workers correspondents. The
Writers Federation, basing itself
on the experience of such coun-
tries as the Soviet Union, Ger
many and Japan, believes that
the workers correspondents are
the more fertile source for the
development of American probe
tartan literature.
THE Monthly Literature Service
is edited by Keene Wallis, of
the John Reed Club of New York,
with the assistance of an editorial
committee representing a number
of organizations. Its first number
consists of about 80 mimeographed
pages of various types of material.

side is not nearly so strong, and
some of it is entirely unsriited to

Too many of these stories, sketch

of being written from a distance;
they do not breathe the spirit of
the struggle. Stories such as Some

The Communist
Position on the
Negro Question

DOLTTICAL clarity is absolutely
l essential in all fields of activity
if work is to be carried on effec-
lively. This is particularly true in
the work of modifying the Negro
workers to the Communist pro-
gram.
The new propaganda pamphlet.
"The Communist Position on the
Negro Question, attempts to pro-
vide Party members and all work
ers active in the labor movement,
with material through which they
can clear up for themselves, many
complicated theoretical problems
and problems of tactics in the field
of Negro work.
The pamphlet contains the fol-
lowing:

workers, and the whole outlook of
their authors is definitely defeatist.
And the editors should most GER
tainly be criticized for including the
story, Southern Night" by Lionel
White. This story is good ex-
ample of the fact that not every
piece of writing dealing with Ne
groes or even with the mistreat-
ment of Negroes is revolutionary.
The author tells us nothing to in
dictate whether the two Negroes in
the story are workers, hoboes or
crooks. His story is told from the
standpoint of bourgeois "objectiv-
ity," but the author is enough of
a white chauvinist to refer invari-
ably to his Negro characters as
"niggers." A story such as this has
absolutely no place in any revolu-
tionary collection.
So much for shortcomings.

LOCAL STRUGGLES
But all is not revolutionary ro-
nance in Communist municipal
ity near Paris. A comrade from
our L'Humanite Official organ of
the French Communist Party, who
conducted me through Ivry told me
of the incessant struggle the local
administration has to wage with
the police, the judicial authorities
and above all-with the district adj
ninistration. The struggle is man
ifold. To begin with, the police is
not under the Jurisdiction of the
local city administration, and it is
not at all an unusual occurrence
when the Communist mayor is ar
rested in his own city hall for dis
obeying a police order. The work
ers of Ivry, for instance, may not
hold meeting, indoor or outdoor,
without the permission of the Ivry
police, and as often as not the Ivry
police refuse permission and breaks
up workers meeting III the best
style of New York, Chicago, or Los
Angeles. The irony of the situa-
ton is that the town administra-
ton has to pay the policemen's sal
aries. The Ivry town council elm
mated the item of police pay from
