Daily Worker:
There is one main point to be
stressed in regard to the Communist
platform and that is appeal to the
masses" and in order to appeal to
the masses, everyone who speaks or
is in contact with workers must SIM
ply and clearly explain each plank
in the platform SO that the worker
in turn can convince and be able to
convince other workers in turn.
Another good tactic is to compare
the planks of the Communist plat.
form with those of the capitalists
and social-fascist programs, and SIM
ply and thoroughly expose the anti.
working class role of the other. If
necessary simple explanation of our
platform should be printed and dis
tributed.

strations in Union Park to expose the
capitalist conventions in Chicago. I
suggest that we make them real mass

The Elections in the Carpenters
Locals and What Next?

local.
Then comes Local 2o9O. In this
local all shades of social fascists
united in the fight against the
Left Wing opposition. They issued
long, slanderous two-page leaflet
full of bitter attacks on the Trade
Union Unity League and on the
candidates of the left wing opposi-
ton. The left wing opposition did
not issue any agitational local leaf
let's, simply a list of their candi-
dates signed by the left wing oppo-
sition and this was enough. The
results of the elections in Local
2090 are that the local has the
Left Wing opposition in office.
The Left Wing opposition has also
elected three delegates to the Dis
trict Council and another business
agent.
All these victories we're on the
basis of clear left wing program,
eagerly read by the rank and file
even in the ultra -reactionary local
unions.
In other conservative locals, such
as Local 8o3 formerly Halketts'
Local., the rank and file have in
this election overthrown the old
clique in the local. If our Left
Wing opposition members in these
conservative locals would not hest
tate to put up an independent slate
our left wing victories would be ex-
tended to more local unions.
What Is Next?
The Left Wing opposition in the
Brotherhood of Carpenters is Or
ganized. Left wingers are taking
over the leadership of local unions
to serve the interests of the men,

were elected on a program and they
are responsible to fight for this
program s>---r=-s--- -

By A. PETERSON

THE results of the June elections
in the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters local unions in the
New York District was victory
for the left wing opposition.
Local 2717 did not conduct any
election campaign in the real sense
no local election leaflet, no pre-
election speeches or agitation for
the candidates; simply card with
the ticket signed by the Left Wing
group Of PITT, and this was enough
to elect the Left Wing slate, and
the result of the elections is that
Local PITT is completely under the
leadership of the Left Wing oppo-
Sition.
Next comes Local 1854. The old
officials of this local, such as the
chairman, were typical examples of
those fake progressives who are
using fine revolutionary phrases
in order to nislead the member
ship. They claimed to be in oppo-
sition to the whole Of Hutcheson's
machine clique. But when commit
tees from the left wing opposition
visited Local 1854 for joint inter-
local action they told the member
ship that the constitutions and BY
laws do not permit them to act.
Weeks before the local elections the
prevailing sentiment among the
membership in the local union was
that we need red-blooded officials
in our local and that it is time to
elect reds.
The Musteites modified some of
the girls from the Rand School of
Social Science, who concentrated
for month with a distribution of
their 4-page leaflet, but all was in
vain-the results of the elections in
Local 1854 are that the left wing
opposition is in control Of this

though that organization used the
name of Dubois, a Negro, it is
not because of preference but ex-
pediency. The record of the A. F.
of L. on the race question is known
to every one-the great number of
its international unions do not ac-
cept Negro members. and the
others Jim-Crow them. And, as
for the Inter-R Racial Commission,
its policy OF soft-pedaling race dis
examinations is an established fact.
That white chambers of commerce
heads select Uncle Toms to serve
on the "InterRacial groups" is also
well known. To this group of white
middle class liberals, more than to
any of the above groups perhaps,
the Negro is all right in his place"

Dear Comrades
1t is was my privilege to be as
signed the task Of collecting sigma
lures in Topeka and Hutchinson,
Kansas, with Comrade Geo. Kalert.
When I arrived in Topeka, Com
rade Kalert had been there already
for few days, and had the prole-
tartan precincts pretty we'll laid cut,
I found that the workers responded
readily, and after learning the pro-
per approach, we had no difficulty
getting the required $50 signatures.
Especially did we find a good response
from the white workers, who were
only too glad to accept our program.
In all of my experiences, only found
q couple of backward workers who
objected to signing for a Negro can
didate-in fact, the most of them
stated that they we're mere ready to
sign because of Comrade Ford's can
didacy. as they were sure that a
Party which came out boldly for Ne
gro rights, would fight in the inter-
ests of all workers.
On the last night in Topeka, I
spoke In Negro Church on the
Communist Party and its Program,
and was assured by the assembled
workers that we could count upon
their fullest support in the election
campaign.
I left Topeka for Hutchinson (by
Rock Island freight on Thursday,
arriving in Hutchinson at about day.
light Friday morning, the 10th Of
June. Here learned that Comrade
Kalert had been arrested upon his
arrival in town, and SO must start
at the beginning, learn where the pro-
letarian neighborhoods, the precincts,
etc. I spent Friday morning getting
the required information, and that
evening I started out, and in about a
half an hours time, had seven sigma
lures.
Everywhere I went, I was warmly
greeted, and was assured that our
Party would receive the heartiest
support from the workers.
| I finished getting the required sig
natures by Wednesday noon on this
last half day getting twenty-five
names. On Thursday, then. I grab
bed a handful of box cars on the
Rock Island, arriving in Kansas City
Friday noon.
