The reactionary official
dom of the American Feder-
alton of Labor is an agency
of capitalism among the
workers for putting over the
capitalist way out Of the
crisis.
The Socialist Party, toge-
Their with it's self-styled left
Wiht'-the Music group - is
the little brother of the Am
erican Federation of Labor. It's
special task is to cover up the
same program with the mask
of Socialist phrases, and thus
to prevent the awakening
workers from organizing for a
really effective struggle. It
supports capitalist monopoly
and justification under the
hypocritical slogans of ma

Unemployment Insurance Bill,
and puts forth its own dema-
gogical elnasculated proposals
to keep the workers from
fighting for their demands.
Against all these parties
which openly or hiddenly at
tempt to force through the
capitalist way out of the cri-
sis, the Communist Party
calls upon the workers and
farmers of America. white
and Negro, to rally for the
struggle against starvation
and war, for the immediate
demands stated above, for
the revolutionary way out of
the crisis.
These measures represent
what a large majority of
workers and farmers WISH
TO HAVE NOW. These things
can only be gotten by fighting
for them. They cut across the
capitalist way out of the crisis
because they do not take into
account capitalist profits, for
which the capitalists and their
lieutenants will fight to the
death.
The Socialist Party is open
ly recognized by the capital
ist press as the Third Capital
ist Party, which more and
more becomes equally respect
able in capitalist society with
the other parties, as the cap
italists more and more need
it to fool and trick the awak-
